To be bound hand and foot for years
by the chains of disease is the worst
form of slavery. George d. Williams
of Manchester, Mich, tells how such a
slave was made free. He says: "My
wife has been so helpless for five years
that she could not turn over in bed
alone. After using two bottles of Elec-
trio Bitters, she is wonderfully improv-
ed and able to do her own work. This
supreme remedy for female diseases
quickly cures nervousness, sleepless-
ness, melancholy, headache, backache,
fainting and dizzy spells. This miracle
working medicine is godsend to weak
sickly, run down people. Every bottle
guaranteed. Only 80 cents. Sold by q.

ACCIDENT ON X. y M.
Engineer David Terrell and
Fireman Frank Parsons
Injured.


just this side of Poca, Tues
day afternoon, the afternoon pass
enger train going south on the
X. g. NJ, had head on collision
with through freight coming
north.
The freight had orders to take
siding near Poca, and was getting
out of tho way for the passenger
train. All the cars had been
backed onto the siding except two
cars, the engine and tender, when
the passenger train came thunder
ing along at full speed, and ran in
to the freight engine, smashing up
both engines, and breaking engi-
neer David Terrell's leg and arm,
and also badly bruising up and in
Turing Frank Parsons, fireman on
the freight. Two other persons
were injured, but slightly, Mr.
Terrell was taken to his home at
Charleston, and Mr.. Parsons to q
relative at Raymond City. The
accident seems to have been caused
by the neglect of the brakeman, tc
obey the orders of the conductor
and engineer of the freight, in pro.
ceeding promptly down the track
to flag the passenger. The brake.
man, when he saw the on.
coming passenger, seems to have
entirely lost his head, Mr.. Ter.
rell had nearly got his engine un.
der control when the two collided
thus lessening the danger to life
aud limb.

THE GYMKHANA.

! It would almost seem that those who
have planned the Gymkhana, or Festi-
val of Nations, which is to occupy the
attention of the society folk as well
as a large proportion Of all New Ha-
ven next month, have left no stone
upturned in their efforts to provide all
manner of attractive devices for secur-
ing money for their most deserving OBJ
ject.
One of the booths of the fair Of which
no mention has yet been made is that in
charge of Isham Henderson, where q
voting contest for the most attractive
booth will take place during the four
days of the fair. But not the least at
tractive here will be the souvenir pro-
gramme which will be on sale here
These dainty affairs will be much
sought after and highly priced, not only
by collectors Of souvenirs, but by all
who attend the festival, for they are
marvels of beauty, The outside cover
has been designed by George A. Thomp-
son the artist and 1t consists of the
ever popular poster effect in green, red
and black on light buff background
Two little children sitting in quaint
attitudes on stools are the subjects the
artist has worked In to his design,
which is certainly exceedingly attrac-
tive The book itself will contain list
of the booths, the committee in charge
of each those In attendance, besides a
list of patronesses and general COM
mlttees. Each days musical programme
viii be given In detail, also other inter
esting bits of information regarding the
Gymkhana,
And speaking of the name which those
in charge have christened this gigantic
fair, 1t might not be amiss to mention
that Gymkhana is of Indian origin and
means to the initiated a little of every
thing: for further particulars consult
Kipling.
