RAN INTO A WASHOUT.
Details OF the Wreck the Southern
Railway.

Details OF the Wreck on the Southern
Railway.
ATLANTA, Ga, June ga passen-
ger train ON the Macon branch of the
Southern railway ran into washout
one and half miles north of McDon-
ough, Ga. and was completely wrecked.
The wreck caught fire and the entire
train, with the exception of the sleeper,
was destroyed. Every person on the
train except the occupants of the Pull
man car persisted. Not member of
the train crew escaped. Thirty-five
people in all were killed.
About a mile and half north of Nc
Donough Camps creek comes some
what near the Southern's tracks and,
running alongside it for some distance,
finally passes away under the road by a
heavy stone culvert. A cloudburst
broke over that section of the country
about 6 p. m. and presumably shortly
after dark washed out a section of the
track nearly 100 feet in length. Into
this the train plunged. The storm was
still raging and all the
Car Windows Were Closed.
The passengers, secure, as they
thought, and sheltered comfortably
from the inclement weather, went to
death withots an instant's warning.
The train, consisting of baggage
car, second class coach, first class coach
and a Pullman sleeper, was knocked
into kindlipg wood by the fall. The
wreck caught fire few minutes after
the fall and all the coaches were
burned except the Pullman car. Gf p.
Every person on the train except the
occupants of the Pullman car persisted
in the disaster. There was no escape,
rs the few alive in the sleeper were un-
able to render assistance to their fellow
passengers.
The occupants of the Pullman car re.
covered from the bewilderment, and
after hard work managed to get out of
their car and found themselves on the
track in the pouring rain. Flames
were already seen coming from the
wreckage not reached by the water. As
the wreck began to go to pieces human
bodies foated out from the mass and
were carried down stream by the swift
current. f.. .r...
Could Do Nothing Until Morning.
Help was sent for and nearly the en-
tire male population of McDonough
went to the scene to render assistance,
but little could be done by the rescuers,
as the fire kept them at distance. At
daylight the bodies that had foated
from the gorge were gathered up. One
body was found mile from the wreck
and many were seen along it's banks.
A wreck train was started out from
Atlanta at midnight, but owing to the
burning wreckage nothing could be
done until morning. A special train in
the morning took doctors, minister,
railroad officials and hel pers to the
scene, but nothing could be done save
to gather up the bodies. As the dead
were found they were removed to Nc
Donough.
Only three women were on the train.
Two escaped. It is presumed that the
other persisted, but the body has not
been found.

Roosevelt Will Serve Out His Term rs
New York's Governor.
NEW YORK, June 25.-B. B. Odell,
IT., chairman Of the Republican state
committee, had his attention directed
to the statement Of an ardent partisan
of Lieutenant Governor Woodruff that
Governor Roosevelt would probably re-
sign, making way for Mr.. Woodruff in
the executive Office, the expected result
being the nomination Of Mr.. Woodruff
for governor. Mr.. Odell said Governor
Roosevelt will not resign. He will serve
out his term as governor. Cleveland
did after he was nominated for presi-
dent. There is no reason why he should
resign.

Shanghai reports say that by the plans
for the reorganization or the government
of China the court is installing large
number of Manchus in Office. Up to the
present time che balance of the controlI-
ing power in the state has been main
tained by giving these northern 81 5jsct
a small fraction over half Of the represen-
tative heads Of administration. In bodies
consisting OF seventeen heads, nine
would be Manchus; In thoss with five
heads. there would be of that race. 1t
may be safe to guess that the. failure Lof
China proper, the southern half OF the
empire, to respond to the policy OF the
government during the Boxer outrages
has led to this change In the official

THE NEW RULE AT BOWDOIN.
New York Evening Post.)

Bowdoin college is the latest American
in sti tuion Of learning to let down the
bar trifie In the matter or compulsory
religious exercises
For the last five or six years the system
OF required attendance as church has been
vigorously assailed, and the result has
finally been that the authorities have
slightly modified their rule. The regula-
ton which previously required the at
tsndance OF every undergraduate at
church on Sundays has lately been
amended, SO that it now reads: "Each
student is expected to attsnd church ON
Sundays.'' The matter Is thus left 20 the
conscience Of each undergraduate, with q
strong Recommendation from the faculty
that he take advantage or the religious
opportunities or the place.
More interesting than this modification
Is the reason assigned tor 1t. Under the
rule, an 1t formerly stood. an undergrad
uate was technically liable to expulsion
for cutting Sunday church, but Presi-
dent hyde declares that foH many years
no student had bsen expelled on this
ground, and That 10 was perfectly we'll
realized by the faculty that no student
would be The rule was, therefore, q
dead letter, and the reform Is made mere
Iy to conform 1t to the changed spirit OF
the time.
AZ Yale the cutting Of Sunday
chureh Is not only technically a cause or
rustfcation and ultimate expulsion, but
has become practically 50. There ID no
hard and fast ruis IN the matter, ft il
true; but every ohapel and Sunday cut Is
paid for by so many marks" and the

The election Ia Maine was Of course a
quiet affair. Many Republicans did not
go to the polls because they thought their
votes would not be needed. Many
Democrats kept away also because they
thought theirs would be Of no use. The
indications point to plurality OF
from $4,000 to $4,000, which might have
been considerably increased If any effort
had been made TO stir up the voters and
get them to the polls.

We know that active brain work throws
out the phosphate OF potash. for this prod

order TO keep well. must have proper food
containing phosphate of potash TO quickly
and surely rebuild the used-up tissue. That
one can obtain such food has been proven
I'm thousands OF cases among users OF Pos

Both contain phosphate OF potash In mi

This product makes from albumen the
gray matter that builds the brain and fills
the nerve centers.
In no way can this gray matter be made
except by the action OF phosphate OF potash
upon albumen. and this mineral should be
introduced TO the body just as IL comes
from natures laboratory, and not from the
drug store. The system Is more or less
