WRECKED IN A BLIZZARD.

Kansas City, Feb. 2S.-The blizzard
prevailing throughout Western Mis-
souri, was the direct cause of train
wreck last night on the main line of
the Missouri Pacific Railroad, in which
at least two persons and, possibly,
others, were killed, and several others
were badly hurt.
The fast st. Louis day express. due
to arrive in Kansas City at 5:i5 last
evening, was delayed by freight train
which stuck in snow drift two miles
south Of Independence, Mo-, about
twelve miles out of Kansas City. The
st. Louis local passenger train, run
ming forty minutes behind the fast ex-
press, came on through the binding
snowstorm and crashed into the ex-
press ahead, the engineer having fail
ed in the driving snow to see the dan
ger signal which the first train had
sent back.
Such was the force of the collision
that the parlor car, which was in the
rear OF the first train, was literally
cut In two. When Engineer Frank
Raymond and his firemen escaped from
the wreck they crawled out through
the windows of the parlor car. Fire
added to the horrors OF the wreck,
Goals from the furnace of the shatter-
ed engine having fallen among the de-
bris OF the splintered coach and soon
the whole wreck was ablaze. Two or
more persons, II is believed, were burn
ed.

Buried Their Cannon.

London, Feb. 2S.--The military critic
Of the Times suggests that General
Cronje probably buried some of his
big guns. With regard to the large
number OF prisoners, the disposing of
whom presents some difficulty, this
writer suggests that they be sent to St.
Helena, adding:
General Cronje, according to great
precedent, might be accompanied with
the large retinue he desires at Long
wood"

We Should Stick TO Simple Food.

Home Journal. "The mothers OF tc-

Stimulating Dreams.

One of the latest theories advanced
is that dreams may be stimulated by
artificial means, such rs musical sounds
or perfumes, and that We may, alter
assiduous study, be able to produce
such visions az we please. Having
learned how to dream to order, we
have also been instructed how to find
ghosts. The process Is simplicity it.

and gaze steady therein for the space
of ten minutes. IT you see nothing
wonderful, be not discouraged, but
try again, and yet again. If on the
third effort no supernatural revelation
ensues, you will know that you are
not 4 "ghost-seeker," and that you
nsver will be.

PETER THE GREAT,
H1s WILL IN CHINA.
The Singular Document Translated.

What will be the result of thu great

What is Russia's real purpose, an0
what advantages will she realize from
the terrific struggle in which SO many
nations are involved?
In timely article in The National

Elropean statesmen and historians az
"The Will Of Peter the Great" and
generally acknowledged to embody
the great and Persistent policies
which have extended the dominion

are clearly and forclbly depicted, and
tee prediction made that the present
social upheayal and revolution In
China have been torseen, if indeed n OF
melted by Russia, who in any event
must immensely and materially profit
thereby.
Two centuries ago, or to be more ex-
act, In 1890, Peter, since justly sur
named The Great, succeeded to the
throne of Russia. A burly, robust,
half civilized, uneduoated boy-prince,
handicapped by oigotry and strong an
lmal passions, and in his early reign
menaced by intrigues of the most dan
gerous character. he had, nevertheless,
strong intellect, stronger Will and a
full measure Of that practical common
sensa, which now and then In the world 5
history has been known to characterize
1uler of great provinces.
Peter had neither feet nor army
worthy OF the name. No nation in
all Europe, except the English nation,
priced his friendship or feared his en-

Webster And The Astor House.

Mr.. Parsell, who is in business at l27
Liberty street, Is an old New Yorker
who has known the city hall region of
the city from childhood and he is
man we'll on In years now. He was
born IN house that stood in Broad
way, opposite the city Hall park. near
Murray street, and his wife was born
in another house near by, one that
stood where now is the Chemical Bank.
Speaking of the old times one day this
week, he said.
"When I was boy I ran errands
and helped in various ways in haber-
dashery store that was in the Astor
House, corner of Vasey street, the place
now occupied by ticket Office of the
Pennsylvania Railroad. Daniel Webster
was at the Astor House frequently in
those days and remember him very
we'll. He used to buy a great many
things In our store and always had
them sent in the hotel to be paid tor
there. He never had any money. I
have carried many purchases to him.
He had parlor up one flight, think,
and there always was a crowd of pso-
pie about him there. The champagne
and other things that went to that
room for him and his friends to drink
would float ship. We always under
stood, and I guess 1t is true, that he
never paid anything at the hotel, did
not even pay for the things that he
bought and had sent to him there G. o.
d. Coleman & Stetson kept the hotel
then and I guess they made money
enough by keeping him free and pay
ing his bills. There was a constant
stream of vino going to his room which
his callers bought and kept flowing.
The hotel could we'll afford to make no
charges against him In view OF the
custom he brought. He was magnlfi-
ciently Indifferent about what anything
cost. He used to buy his gloves of us
for one thing-white kids when he was
going to lecture or speak in the even
ing. He wore an 81 glove and he would
split or ruin three or four pairs before
he got one to suit him. AS fast SIS he
tore or split pair of gloves he would
throw them on the floor. When he had
selected a pair and got them on with
out running them he would tell US to
send them into the hotel and get our
money for them. We always gathered
up the torn gloves from the floor, put
ting them In with the others and charg-
| ing them in the bill. We always
we're paid without word. The Astor
House in those days was the chief resort
for great men. Kossuth and Henry
CLAY and Edwin Forrest-I have seen
them all there. But Webster was the
king of them ala thick-set, rather
short man, az I remember him and very
pleasant ana affable. He used to call
me sBub,' and one day he gave me a
ticket to one OF his lectures. l went,
but might as we'll have stayed away.
He swan in too deep water for boy
like me. I don't belieye there ever
was worse bored boy than I was at
great Webster's lecture, and l never
wanted to 20 again..

MARKETING TOMATOES.
Methods In Vogue For HaLd1ing
Distant Shipments.
PICKED GREEN.

Concerning two methods in vogue
for handling the distant shipment of
tomatoes Professor F. S. Earle OF Ala
bama says: At most points in Flor
Ida the fruits are picked dead green
as soon az they reach full size and at
least week before they would begin
to color. They are wrapped in paper
and are packed in the we'll known six
basket crate, the same that is used for
handling the Georgia peach crop.
These green tomatoes are shipped by
fast freight in ventilated cars. Tho
wrapping in paper prevents them from
shriyeling, and by the time they reach
market some OF the more mature ones
are usually beginning to color. The
greatest drawback to this system is
that when picked in that condition no
ono can tell the exact stage of mat ur-
ity, and 1t is impossible to 80 assort
them that all in one package will rlpen
together. When opened on the mar
ket, some of the fruit in the basket
will be fully ripe while some il dead
green. Such uneven packages are less
salable than where all are evenly ripen-
ed. Again, If tho weather is cool dur
Ing transit, ripenlng is delayed so that
none is ripe on arrival, and the con-
signment has to be stacked up in the
store and held till rlpening begins.
In this way stocks often accumulate
enormously, and If the weather sud-
denly turns warm, causing all to ripan
at once, the entire accumulation must
be forced off at once, or 1t will be lost
entirely, thus causing disastrous glut,
In Mississippi the usual plan is to al
low tho tomatoes to hang until they
are slightly tinted. The fields are
picked over every day, 80 as to get as
many ~ possible of them in this tinted
condition. At the packing shed they
are asaorted into three grades as to
color-ripes, mediums and green's
Usually tiirsts and seconds sre naade OF
each of these grades, thus really max

ping in flat, four basket crates and are
shipped in refrigerator cars. Where
t his plan is Thoroughly carried out it
insures = very even quality of tomat toes
In each package, and, as the goods are
ripe when they arrive, thew can be
sold At once, thus avoiding the disas-
trous accumulation of stocks. The
cost OF refrigeration makes this meth
cd slightly more expensive than the
other, even though the cost OF wrap
ping tho toma toes is saved. On the
whole, however, it is more satisfactory,
and there can be little doubt that for
the latitude Of Alabama it will on the
average yield larger net returns.
The growing of tomatoes on large
scale is an exaoting business, requir-
ing constant personal care and atten-
ton from the time the seed IL planted
until the crop is harvested. 1t Is not
a crop that can be successfully handled
by ignorant tenants. It has, however,
proved profitable at many localities In
the past when intelligently handled,
and there is no reason to suppose that
1t will not continue to be profitable In
the future.
