One of tho first duties of a lecturer Is

be done while he is preparing what he is
to say, lest he be put TO the necessity
of hurried and awkward qualifications

ports that professor was lecturing to
a class Of three young ladies, and In
tho course of his remarks came to an
exposition of his views rs to woman's
function in tho body polite. Women"
he is reported to have said, ''are the
element of beauty In human life. Their
business is to make life graceful, and
they can't do that, you know, unless
they themselves are pretty and graceful.
If girl is not pretty she might almost
as well vanish from the face of the
earth-that is," he explained, rs he
looked at the three sober, spectaclea
faces before him-"that is-er-unless

A BROKEN RAIL

Causes the wreclsing of a Passenger Train
One Passenger Killed and Twenty
three Injured.
SILEx, Mo-, May 15.-At o'clock yes
terday morning the southbound passen-
ger train on the st. Louis & Hannibal
railroad struck broken rail about two
miles north of Slick and derailed the
entire train, killing one passenger out
right and badly injuring twenty-three
others. The dead man is c. Meyer, of
Warrenton, Mo-, a travelling salesman.
The train was running at ordinary
speed, but the engineer did not observe
the broken rail until within nearly fifty
feet and although the air brakes were
instantly applied, the momentum was
so great that the train could not be
stopped and the engine, baggage car
and coaches left the rails and rolled
down twenty y-foot embankment.

ing into the hands of the museum an
thorities and ample work is afforded
the photographers.
This Photographic studio also per
forms some valuable service in that it
furnishes photographs for use in illus
trating scientific magazines and jour
nails. The publishers of the various
scientific papers call upon Mr.. Smillie
from time to time for photographs of
specimens of the various curios which
they intend to describe in their next
issues. Work is also done for the
papers published by the national mu-
scum, and every illustration of a curio
printed in the museums annual jour
nal, Contribution to Knowledge" is
copied from photograph furnished by
Mr.. Smillie.
This important branch of work es-
tablished in connection with the Smith
sonian institution, although well de-
veloped, can be said to be only In a
primary condition. Much work of a
valuable kind can be accomplished in
the future. and it Is expected that in
later years this establishment will de-
velop into camera shop of such mag
nitude as to attract attention from
scientists and inventors of the whole
world. The world moves on and takes
no notice of the deaths of men, because
others ari3e and take their places; but
the world would be much poorer If the
light and life of this national photo
graphic establishment, In the person OF
Mr.. Smillie, were taken away. He is
in the full strength and vigor of robust
manhood and bids fair to live to see the
work of his creation honored and ap'
preciated by his country and by the
civilized nations of the earth.

Mr.. Smillie, who has gathered together

forte. He Is an expert in the work and
