MANGLED And BURNED.
A Frightful Railw way Accident
i'm Yorkshire, England.
Half a Score of Passengers Perish
and Thirty Injured.

An appalling railway accident occurred
early few mornings ago near ThirsE, IN
Yorkshire, England. The number OF killed
on the day after the accident was placed at
from nine to thirteen. About eleven per-
sons were injured.
The express train which leaves Elm
burgh every evening for London was
running at full speed as il approached
Tnirsk, when ahead of it appeared heav-
lily laden goods train. The engineer OF the
express train reversed the engine and put on
the brakes, but the moment UNI of the heavy
express was too great, and il dashed into
the goods train making a terrible wreck.
To add to the horror the carriages caught
fire and were destroyed. large number
of persons from nearby places were soon at
the scene anG did everything possible 70
extricate the dead and injured.
Those who managed 70 extricate them
selves uninjured fastened TO assist Others
who were yet alive and caught in the wreck.
1t was difficult WORK, owing to the way III
which the carriages were crushed to-
gether, and the trouble in opening COM
partment doors that were fastened
after the usual British fashion.
Men and women could be heard shrieEing
for assistance. One man VINO was slowly
burning to DEATH and who could not get
out, begged the rescuers to Kill him.
Besides thirty we're injured, twelve of
them seriously
The fireman of the train was killed, but
the engineer, who jumped at the instant of
the collision, escaped with broken leg.
The Marquis OF Tweeddae and the Mar
quis of HunUIy. the latter a lord-in-w waiting
TO Queen Victoria, were on board the train.
The Marquis of Tweeddale escaped unin-
jured, and IN spite OF his c9e did active
service in assisting to rescue others. The
Marquis of Huntly was bruised ana had
thumb broken, bu5 suffered no other injury.
Captain Duncan Mcleod Of the 421 High
landers, is among the killed.
Trains were sent to the scene to clear the
wreck and carry away the wounded and
dead.
1t has been ascertained that the signal
man at the siding was asleep at the time,
which may account for the accident. The
Rev. John Forsythe, Chaplain Of the
Caledonian Asylum, was badly injured in
the wreck.
The Pullman carriage was thrown off the
rails and shattered, but the occupants es-
capped death. The fourteen ordinary car
riages were thrown backward in one con-
fused heap.

How r ,nnet is Prepared.

Rennet is the dried stomach of milk
ted calf. The stomach used is that in
which the milk is found. It is emptied
of the milk and filled with salt and
hung up for a week, when the salt Is
shaken out aud it is stretched over a
bent twig to keep it spread. 1t is then
hung up to dry, and should be kept in
paper bag to preserve it from the flies
aud beetles that might spoil it. For use,
a piece two inches square is taken for
100 pounds of milk and stepped in warm
water for few no urs, handful of salt
being added. Or the stomachs may be
stepped in brine after being salted, and
after some days stepping the liquid is
strained of and bottled for uss.-New
York Times.

Il red the SUI begins his race,
Be sure that raiu viii fall apaca.

Even Christ alludes to the same popu-
lar Idea Of the suns color and its rela-
ton to wet or dry weather, where he
says (Matthew xvi, 2, 81: "When it
is evening, ye say, 1t will be clear
weather: for the sky is red. And inithe
morning, It will be foul weather to- day:
for the sky is red and lowering" 1t
may be remembered, too, how graph
ically Shakespeare puts forth this same
proverb in his Venus and Adonis:'
Like a red morn, that ever yet hetokened
Wreck to the seamsn, tempest to the fields
Sorrow to the shepherd, WOO unto the birds
Gusts and foul flaws to the herdsmen and to
herds.
If we turn to European observations
we find that the Italians says: eff the
morn be red, rain is at hand" and,
again, ''if the sky be red when the morn
ing star is shining, there will be rain
during the week" As is we'll known,
however, red sunset is just as propit-
ious as "a red rising is unlucky-''a red
sky at night being a shepherds de-
light" and according to a saying very
popular when the writer was child
Evening red, morning gray,
Sends the traveller on his way.
In Germany it is commonly said that
ga red sunset and gray rising sets the
pilgrim a-walking." At Malta the stable
boy will tell you that ga red sunset says:
Get your horse ready for Tomorrow"
In Orchard III. Shakespeare gives as
the same proverb in different words:
The weary sun hath made golden set
And, by the bright track of mis- fiery car,
Gives token OF a gootly day tomorrow.
Indeed, there are numerous proverbs
on this subject, all to the same purpose,
an ancient Scotch rhyme being as fol-
lows:
The evening rel and the morning gray
Is sign Of bright an l cheery day;
Evening gray and morning red
Put on your hat or you'll wet your head.

seven Indians near Alma. They had como
across from the Reservation and got drunk,
and the United States Marshal drove them

and held an orgie until two o'clock i'll the
morning.
About that hour settlers observed bright
light, and investigation showed that the
cabin had caught fire and that the Indians,
who were in a drunken stupor, were all
burned to death, only their charre1 bodies
remaining
