Return of Soldiers May Cause an Epi-
demfc of Typhoid Fever.

AS typhoid fever in malignant form is
very contagious, visitors at Camp Mount
should not carry home hats, belts or other
apparel that has been worn by the sick
soldiers unless it is thoroughly fumigated
as the hot weather of the past few weeks
of our citizens with the germs of malarial
and typhoid fever. AS both typhoid and
malarial fever can be prevented If properly
treated, we will give few of the best
known symptoms: Coated tongue bad
taste. loss of appetite, constipated or irreg-
ular bowels, headache or some form of
neuralgia, pains in the back chest Joints
or limbs. soreness of the flesh, feeling of
dulness or indifference for work or effort
freshing sleep at night. sometimes with a
pale earthly or yellow face and skin and a
general feeling of sickness. When any of
the above symptoms appear the patient
should Immediately take some good medi-
cine TO act on the liver and remove the I'M
digested food from the stomach; at the
same time the patient should be given some

A prominent physician said that he al
ways prevented these fevers by giving his
patient a dose of Haag's Liver Pills to re-

patient dose of Haag's Cold and Fever

A HEAD-END COLLISION
BIG FOUR FREIGHT TRAINS COLLIDE
NEAR THE woRKHOUsE.
Crew Escaped by Jumping-LittIe
Damage to Engines, Although
Crash Was Loud.

There was a head-end freight collision
on the main line of the Chicago division OF
the Big Four Railroad just below the
workhouse last evening about $50 o'clock.
No serious damage was done. although the
enginemen of Pony Engine 81 and Engine
AL, hauling an extra freight train, had a
narrow escape. The crews of the trains
refused to discuss the accident or the
causes that led to it. 1t was learned, how
ever, that the pony engine was hauling a
train of eighteen loaded cars and q catoose
over the main line to get around wreck
that occurred earlier in the evening on the
p. & E. near the downtown crossing. Just
west of the workhouse there is sharp
curve. AS Engineer Wells rounded this
curve, running at a pretty good speed, he
and his fireman. Laughed. saw the head
light of Engine All approaching rapidly
from the south. The engineer kept cool,
whistled down brakes and then turned on
a full head of steam through the whistle.
hoping to warn the approaching engine.
After running about a block the pony
engine came to dead stand, and the crew
jumped just before the crash.
Meantime Engineer Burke, in charge of
the extra freight had seen the pony, called
down brakes and reversed his engine, not
in time, however, to prevent the collision.
His fireman. Jenkins, jumped just in time
to save his life. Another instant and he
would have been ground into jelly. In some
respects the wreck was remarkable. The
pilots of the two engines were completely
smashed, but the boiler heads were not
damaged. The two engines stood face to
face, the light from one headlight mingling
with that of the other. scarcely a foot
away. The most serious damage was to the
tenders of the two engines and the first
box car behind either. The tenders were
jerked off the trucks and damned into the
cabs of the engines, while the box cars be-
hind them were telescoped with the water
tanks. In spite of the tremendous crash
people half dozen blocks away heard the
noise--not a car left the track and the
two trains stood on the track as evenly as
If they had stopped in the ordinary way.
The only wheels off the track were those Of
the truck under the tender of the pony
engine. The tender was raised clear of the
trucks, which slid off the track five or six
inches. A wreck train came in an hour
and pulled away the cars, after which a
force of men began clearing away the
think the two engines were all right, as the
firemen continued firing them after the
wreck, with some difficulty, of course,
the tenders were damned against them.
The first wreck, 1t was said, amounted to
but little. A car jumped the track, and
aside from blockading the track and the an
noyance from this cause did no particular
harm, it was claimed by the officials.

How best to attack the administrations
management of the war; is the question over
which some of the small-fry Democrats are
worrying themselves. An afternoon paper
had an interview with Alonzo G. Smith,
which indicates how men of his caliber ex-
pect to reap a political advantage out of
military operations and alleged neglect of
the soldiers. 1T seems to me that this
thing is bound to help the Democratic par
ty,' the ex-attorney general is quoted as
saying. 1.-THE administration must bear the
responsibility. 1t may not be necessary for
the campaign speakers to say much about
It. The mothers and sisters are doing the
talking Just now"
