BOTH LEGS CUT OFF.
D. 7. Apologize Loses His Life in the
Discharge Of His Duty.
tElizabethtown News.)

WEST PoINT, Nov. 7th.-0ne of the
saddest accidents in the history Of West
Point, was that which caused the death
of one of West Points oldest citizens Mr..
ID. 7. Apologize, Wednesday Nov. LIST.
Mr.. Apologize was employed by the rail
road company as bridge Waterman and
was always very particular in the dis
charge of his duty, often saying that he
considered himself in great measure
responsible for the safe conduct over the
bridge of so many precious lives. The
day he was killed wreck at Valley sta
ton caused all the trains to be late. He
signaled the west bound passenger train
of the L., st. L. 4 T., to pass and in step
ping aside he slipped and fell with his
feet across the rail- The engine was so
close upon him that he could not regain
his footing, and the engineer was power
less to save him. The engine passed
over him cutting off the lower limbs be-
low the knees. lie became unconscious
and died in few minutes. The engineer
Bob Linley in giving his testimony at
the inquest was so grieved at the sad
accident that he cried like child. He
was exonerated from all blame and as
Mr.. Applegate was careful man in
everything, why he met his death in so
cruel way can only be accounted as one
of the mysterious dispensations of pro-
violence, The funeral was to be preach
ed at the church, but in the absence of
the minister, Mr.. Frank Lord presided.
The body was viewed by the Lodge
members and friends; several hymns
were sung and most beautiful and
touching prayer was offered by Mr.. Lord
The remains were taken to River View
on the noon train and were laid away in
the family graveyard. The ceremony at
the grave was conducted by Col, Ike
Kelly according to the Masonic ritual
The Masons turned out in full regalia
and took charge of the remains at the de-
pot. Mr.. Apologize was a Mason in
good standing and was in the 74th year
OF his age. He leaves wife, one son
and two daughters, and number of
grandchildren, two great grandchildren
and host of friends to mourn his sad
death. To them all We extend our
heartfelt sympathy in their irreparable
loss and great sorrow.

The Horse That Lives in the White
House.

A horse has his home in the White
House. This is literal fact which WISH
tors never discover, and which few
Washington people know. The horse
which shares the Executive Mansion
with the President isn't thoroughbred.
He has neither pedigree nor record.
He is just plain, everyday horse, with
a white star in his forehead, faithful
companion to Edgar r. Beckley.
And who is Edgar r. Beckley? The
man who for twenty-five years has car
ried to and from the White House all OF
the interesting and valuable mail receiv-
ed and sent, and who has never been
found remiss in his duty. There are
men who seem bound to be monuments
OF fidelity TO routine trusts. Beckley is
one OF them. Rain or shine, in all sea
sols, he makes the hourly trips between
the White House and the city Post
Office. He is the White House mail
carrier. And the horse that has his
home in the White House carries Beck.
ley.
The part OF the mansion set apart for
the horse is one corner OF the conserva-
tory. A thin partition is all that sepa-
rates the roomy stall from the orchids.
There is just room enough for the
stall and a temporary supply of feed,
and there the horse eats and sleeps,
under the same roof with the President
OF the United states.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

Oh. the Rustic.

One Of the ambitions of dress just now
is the rustic. The frou-frou Of gown
is one of its desired merits and those
who wear silk petticoats like them to
assert themselves in the same way; but
even silk has its drawbacks, as it is apt
10 wear out, and it is costly. A new
material called Victoria" silk, which
is devoted TO petticoats, is to be had in
gray and black, brown and black and
many other mixtures. IL ruStles like
ordinary silk, but in truth it boasts
more Of wool than silk, though the two
are so combined that the silk is upper
most. Such petticoats are really cap
ital invention. They are handsomely
flounced and are suited TO hard wear,
for the mud brushes off them easily.
They will not crease and they have a
good appearance. What more could be
expected of any petticOat? Fashionable
women are taking them up, which is
much in their favor.

Odd pieces of china in harmonizing

Keep the tea in a large mouthed fancy
bottle or Jar, where it can be air tight,
and have your table always ready, so
that on the arrival OF friend there only
remains the sending to the kitchen for
boiling water. Everything else is at
ones finger tips. Have the water
brought to the table boiling hot. 1t can
easily be kept so by the alcohol lamp,
but to attempt to heat it on the table is
only laborous and unsatisfactory.
Don't forget TO have a few dainty
spoons. II they are heirlooms, so much
the better, but keep them in pretty

Let the Girls Read This.

A study of ancient sculpture will
show that feet are turned straight
ahead, with no inclination to the right
or the left. This is the position which
our sculptols prescribed for their mod
els are the most natural and graceful
one in standing and walking. DR..
Thomas Ellis, one of the highest au-
thorities, in monograph on this sub
iect makes the flair square" position in
walking as the most easy and natural
one, giving the greatest support TO the
body with the least eXertion.
DR.. Ellis goes so far as TO attribute
the deformity of fat footedness to the
habitual turning out of the toes. He
calls attention to the arched foot and
fine carriage of the Arab as the result
OF his manner Of planting his feet on
the ground.
II do not Doubt" said the leading au-
thority of New York's fashionable train
ing school for women, THAT the most
natural position Of the feet in walking
is straight ahead. We devote ourselves
here especially toward developing the
chest, and il would create confusion IL
we were to attempt to make any radical
change In the conventional method of
placing the feet. So we leave this mat
ter to the pupils themselves. Little
children when they first learn to walk
place their feet straight ahead"
Turning out the feet TO an extreme
angle like sixty degrees, as all know
who try the position, produces wab-
bling gate. The one who walks in the
fair square" position gets over the
ground more rapidly with the same
amount of exertiOn.

Most OF the work in instantaneous
