poses to relieve the wholesale murder and
dOwntrOdden starving people Of Cuba, at

In an old but truthful proverb, and should
not be ignored by the powers that be.

his strong arm to provide food clothing

that family, through no fault OF his, IL
suffering for the necessities Of life, he be-
comes extremely desperate and as last
resort leaves his good wife and children

Railway records dlspel the popular belief
that the average life OF trainman aC-
lively engaged In railway service IL about
seven years. One OF the principal roads
entering Louisville has compiled statistics
on the subject. On that road during the
last three years there were only two men
killed and 15S injured. OF these men all
but two were brakemen, and these two,
who were freight conductors were at the
time OF the accident acting as brakemen
1t might be supposed that inexperienced
men would be the most apt to get injured,
but the records show differently. A cor

tributes the following table OF percentages
