smashed together on curve in a
heavy fog. Engineer Sam Hendricks,
OF No. 225. and Fireman Wilhelm, of
the extra, we're caught beneath the
wreck and almost instantly killed.
Fireman Ed Riddle. Engineer Walter
brennan and Head Brakeman Charles
Campbell, were all badly injured, the
latter two doubtless fatally. Riddle
lost foot and suffered broken left
arm. Campbell's head was badly
hurt. his right leg crushed. his left arm
broken, and it is feared his back was
broken. brennan received a cut
through the skull over the left eye.
about three inches in length, which
exposed the brain. His leg was broken
and he received many bad cuts and
bruises.
One OF the trainmen ran to town with
the news and an engine and caboose
were sent out after the three injured
men, who were cared for by three ply.

time was required to get Hendricks

brought to the undertakers Immediately.
The necks of both of the men were
broken.
The scene Of the wreck defes ade.

EXTRAS engine had literally forced its
way through the other engine its full
length, hut neither engine had left the
track. They were both partly covered
by wrecked freight cars. the engine Of
No. 225 was entirely covered, and
badly broken.up box car surmounted
the heap. apparently balancing OH the
smokestack. This part of the wreck
caught fire once, but the flames were
quickly extinguished.

Country butter does not sell well in the

they demand this every time. Country
butter to-day is a drug in many mar
kets-as low as and 10 cents per

run their own creamery. AS a rule, the

run 1t himself will do better than an
association Of farmers where too many
heads are apt to cause disputes and
chickering's. Milk sent to the creamery
pays all the way from IL to % cents a

making far more than by making his
own butter. This comparatively high
price is made possible because Of the
better prices received for creamery, and
for the low cost Of manufacturing 1t.
This latter varies because the size of
the creameries vary. The larger the
creamery the cheaper the butter can be
made, and this varies all the way from

Washington, Nov. THE annual

cusses briefly the results of armor tests
and the contract requirements OF the

the report says:

Profit from Cows.

It Is estimated that the cost Of COW
for one year for food alone Is about
$25, says the Farmers Journal. This
amount she must return to her owner
before she can make any profit, and
yet there will remain the cost OF the
labor and shelter, for which she will
pay with the manure, as it possesses
value. as we'll as the milk. If the
farmer cannot get enough from the cow
to pay for the food she eats he will
keep her at loss. At $25 per year
the cost is about cents per day. The
price of the milk in market will deter.
mine the value of the COW. If she pro-
duces $500 quarts Of milk in year,
the cost of each quart will be reduced.
All cows cannot be kept for one year
at so low a cost, but as there must he
an expense for the COW whether she
proves valuable or not. the dairyman
should seek the best. in order to reduce
the cost.

plOyes Of the Bank.


New York, Nov. l2.-Cornelius T..
Alvord, Jr., the note teller Of the First
National bank, who is accused of EN-.
bezzling 5000, 900 of the banks funds.
was arraigned before United Sattes
Commissioner Shields in the criminal
branch of the United States circuit
court here today.
Whiting f.. Snow, assistant cashier
of the First National bank. said he had
known Alvord 20 years, the past 10 OF
which he had been the note teller Of
the First National bank. He explained
in detail the duties of the note teller
and the banks clearing house transac.
lions. He explained the balance
sheets, which showed shortage of
$3.50, ZOO in Alvord's department. The
figures showed that the shortage var.
led, and that from October 10 to Octo.
Der Is it was 100000. Alvord's at
torney led Snow to admit that since
the latter first became an Off Ger of the
bank. two years ago. he had never
known officers of the bank to examine
the assets of the institution.
Cashier William Reed, of the First
National bank. was the next witness.
He said that the last time the bank had
an examination was October Is. He
had no personal knowledge of any re.
port of the examination.
Merton V. Moore, settling clerk for
the bank. identified column OF figures
on sheet that was prepared for and
sent to the clearing house az having
been made by himself. He explained
the details Of making up the sheets
for the clearing house. Then, one by
one, he identified the sheets made mp
for the banking days in October. Mr..
Moore testified that two figures In the
sheets made up tor October Is had been
changed. The figures as they stood
were not his. He did not know who
had made the changes. 1t was brought
out that the sheet had been in the pos.
session Of Alvord as it had been made
up by Moore.
