The Tall Girl.

1.-THE women of this country are unques-
tionably growing taller" said Professor
Charles Devine, guest of the Southern.
This Is especially true OF the women of
the great middle class.
''1he tall girl is not so plentiful among
the plutocrats as the very poor but ma
jority OF those young ladies whose parents
are IN comfortable circumstances are above
the medium height. My theory is that the
growth of the very poor is stunted by bad
food and hard work, and that of the very
rich by a surfeiting and lack Of proper ex-
ercise
.The middle-class girl has plenty of
wholesome food and is required to lead a
moderately active life. The result is that
she grows up tall and graceful. with the
easy carriage OF an athlete. believe that
the young ladies of today will average an
inch taller than their mothers The men
Of America are also growing taller, but the
advance is not so marked as in the case Of
young ladies.

very general use Of tobacco or liquor, or
both, by the boys of America Climate has
a very considerable effect upon race devel-
cpment

stream Of immigration ceases TO materially

the American indian-tall, strong, erect,

Many Are Manned.

In all truth the officials of the Louis
vile, New Albany and Chicago Railroad
Company have said that the disaster
which overlook their northbound pas
senger train north of Charlottesville,
Ind, was the worst in the history of the
road. The Monon has had its share of
misfortunes. There were more fatalities
at Broad Ripple and at other wrecks on
that line, but none exceeded the Craw-
louisville affair in horror, or in whole
sale manning, as the stories heard and
the Investigations made at the scene Of
the accident go to show. Three victims
are in the list of fatalities SO far. They
are Nine. Erina Van Rokay, the dan
seuse of the City Club Burlesque Com
pany; Ben Hamburg, the Cincinnati
travelling man; and G. N Cheek, lumber
merchant, Of Green Castle. Nellie Han
ley of the show company, Mrs. Rosa
Evans of Green Castle, and E. White
sides, three of the thirty-four MANNED
victims, will die.
In Charlottesville the wreck caused
great excitement. Feeling was strong
against the section men, who were re-
ported to have left the rail which caused
the wreck insecurity spiked to the track.
But there came change of sentiment
Wutu OuInutl DuTkDOlueT, respected
citizen, reported that in conversation
with one Of the section men he had been
told that the rail which caused all the
trouble had been broken for a long time,
and that the section men had applied in
vain to the company for a new rail. 1t
was refused, so the section man said, on
the ground that the whole line was soon
to be supplied with new steel rails.
The accident occurred at place that
is one of the most dangerous points Ia
the Monon system. A mile and half
north of Charlottesville the track crosses
deep ravine on q trestle some forty
feet high. After crossing the ravine the
roadbed winds around hill, and follows
the bends of the hollow for some dis
lance, the track being for the most part
cut out of the steep side Of the ravine.
Just north of the trestle there is point
especially precipitous, and it was chosen
by the fates for the scene of the dis
aster.
A hundred yards before reaching the
steepest point the train struck broken
rail. The engine passed over safely,
but the first car, a mail coach, was de-
rallied. The cars broke loose from each
other, but followed the ties until that
awful declivity was reached. The mail

track, and before they fell down the hill,
not single tie was disturbed from its
place, SO firmly are they laid and so per-
feet is the ballasting."
"The wreck" said General Superin-
tendent Collins, was the result of a
broken rail, but how the rail was broken
/ do not know. l have not seen the
pieces, to know whether the rail was de-
fective or whether it was the work Of
frost. The rails were of the best Of
steel, and l think frost did the work. I
do not see that it could possibly have
been avoided by any precautionary
measures. It's just what would have
happened on any road, but it occurred
on about the worst spot on the whole
line, and it is wonder to me that there
were SO few fatalities. In my thirty
years of railroading / never saw a worse
wreck

denly around the curve came a through
freight at full speed with twenty-five
cars heavily loaded. The'last three cars
of the wrecking train were completely
demolished, and some barrels of oil as
sisted in making terrible con6agra-
ton. But no one was hurt.
Agents Of the road appeared in the city
soon after the accident and were busy
settling claims for cash where they
could, and refusing to settle where the
passengers were unreasonable in their
demands. Claim Agent Houston had a
satchel full OF greenbacks which he dis
tributed in lots of $40 to 500. All
affirmed that there was no defect in the
road or roadbed.
There are many things about this
wreck / don't understand, said Mr..
Kretzinger. "The roadbed was in just
as good condition as it possibly could be.
AS proof of this, might say that the
roadbed was that firm that in the WHOLE

over by the trucks after the cars left the

car turned endwise and rolled down the
hill. The second car, a combination
coach, carrying the baggage Of the
theatrical company, stayed right where
it was on the track, not even leaving the
ties. The smoking car fell on its
side and started down the hill
Three times the car turned COM
pletely over The brakeman was
fixing the fire at the time the car left the
tracks, and, the stove-door being open,
the live Goals flew everywhere among
the many passengers. The car was set
on fire in many places, and the flames
burned the frightened occupants. The
car was not broken much, however, and
all those in the car escaped by breaking
through the windows before any were
fatally burned. Some painful bruises
resulted, however, to the people in the
car, as they were thrown from floor to
ceiling and from ceiling to floor with
each turn it made. The car was con-
sumed by the flames after all the pas
sengers had gotten out.
Next to the smoker was the ladies' car,
and in it the greatest mischief was done.

cline, as the smoker had done before it,

Curious Woods.

A few years ago the directors of the
National Museum of Natural History
gathered what was probably the most
complete collection of our native forest
timbers that was ever collected on the
American continent. Each of the APO
specimen blocks was sawn longitudin-
ally, transversely and diagonally to show
the characteristics Of the wood from all
points. OF this large variety Of trees,
nearly all have some commercial or eco
homie value. Perhaps first in rank Of
curiosity is the honey locust from Mis-
souri,. The bark is covered with sharp
thorns from one TO four inches long,
growing at irregular intervals. In order
to bring it without injury, it had to be
carefully suspended from a box-car roof.
A specimen of that giant of the lily tribe,
the Yucca tree, though sawn off from
both roots and top, grew, thrived and
blossomed twice. The trunk of this ma
tive freak was too spongy to be given
the treatment accorded the other speci-
mems. 1t was about two feet through,
with stringy, knotted bark, from which,
in place of the regular limbs, grew bay
onet-like leaves. From the Rocky
Mountains came a very fine specimen Of
the Douglass spruce. The bark, some
two inches thick, is perforated with
numerous holes reaching to the wood,
made by woodpeckers to store their food
in.-Great Divide.
