A Collision the Rev Metropolitan
Underground Railroad, in Paris.
Paris. France, Oct 19.-The newly
inaueurated Metropolitan underground
railroao bad its first disaster this
morning. Two trains eollided, and 20
persons were injured, two of them
fatally.
The accident occurred between the
Exposition station, on the Champs
Elysees and the Place De La Conoorde.
A train entered the Place DE La Con-
corde station, backed out again. and
the train following, owing to misun-
Outstanding Of signals, crashed into the
rear carriage. luckily, both trains
we're going slowly. Nevertheless. the
shock partly smashed the end Of the
car, shattered the windows of both
trains. and extinguished the electric
liRhts.
There was great excitement, the dark
ness in the tunnel adding to the
horror. Women screamed, and wounded
passengers appealed for help, while
others loudly called for lights. The
railroad employees fastened to the scene
with lanterns, and the passengers pro-
ceedsd on foot to the Place De La Con-
corde station. The wounded were
promptly extricated, and removed to
hospital. Traffic was interrupted for
several hours.

PuLpERIzED COAL THE LATEST.
The Economy of Its Use Thought to Have
Been Demonstrated.


The Economy of Its Use Thought to Have
Been Demonstrated.
The recent strike of coal miners in
the anthracite coal region Of this State,
Gays the Philadelphia Record, has been
tho means of bringing to public atten-
tion many things connected with the
burning of fuel that might otherwise
hag been left unknown or at least known
only to scientists and those directly
interested in great enterprises. Among
the many things considered after the
tremendous rise in price consequent
upon the strike was the possibility OF
use of bituminous coal. This soft pro-
duct of the mines causes so much
smoke that many municipalities have
passed ordinances prohibiting its use.
With this great factor facing them,
the users of large quantities Of fuel
begar to look about them, and quickly
discovered that machine patented by
Philadelphian, was on the market,
which made pulverized coal the posi-
BILE fuel of the future. 1t seems that
this new invention is an assured sue
cess. The Illinois Central Railroad
has been experimenting for a week
with this device, and il is claimed that
coal, when powdered by this process, is
the cheapest and best fuel available.
being at the same time absolutely
smokeless.
For years engineers the world over
have discussed the topic of firing from
coal-dust, but not until recently has
the project taken practical shape. APP
plianoes for firing by this means must
reduce the coal 10 an impalpable pow

Philadelphia invention is credited with
doing. The officials of the Illinois
Central are credited with stating that
they are satisfied the principle Is COR
rect, and that they expected to demon
strate saving Of from 25 to 40 per cent
on the same quality of coal.
One great point in favor of the new
appliance is that 1t may be adapted
readily and without any appreciable
extra cost. to any style or kind OF
boiler, either locomotive, stationary,
tubular or rotary. The new machine
reduces the coal to microscopical flakes
which, when injected through special
form of burner, along with the requisite
air supply, burns in the furnace like
gas. Combustion is said to be perfect
and almost instantaneous. and the
proper admixture of air is easily ascer-
tanned and registered. Volumetrio an
alysis of samples of escaping gases in
dictate that the highest possible eff
cheney in the use of any coal is at.

In this new machine run of mine coal
is Dumped into large hopper and fed
to a. crusher. II wet, it is passed
through dryer, thence to the pulyer-
izer. After leaving the mill, the dust
is carried up into the air separator, in
which revolving fans seperate the fine
fiaky PARTICLES from the eoarser grains,
the latter being returned for regrind-
ing.

Lourenco Marques, East Africa, Dot.
19.-Mr. Kruger was secretly taken. at
S O'Clock this morning, on board the
Dutch cruiser Gelderland, on which
vessel he is to sail for Holland. The
reason given for Mr.. Kruger's en-
barkation is that he feared the Beers
here would attack him. The feeling
of the refugees against Mr.. Kruger for
fleeing from the country ia very strong.
He left the governors house IN hird
carriage, accompanied by DR.. Hay
mann, the governor following in a
private carriage. The party drove
through the ,oustomhouse. and EN-.
Earked from The customs pier, inste d
of from the passenger jetty. 1t is re-
ported that the Gelderland will sail

the case, that on the day previous to
the disappearance of Major Rockefeller
the Ninth Infantry made forced
march, and that probably he was SO
affected BY the heat that he wandered
into the Filipino line.
Another theory advanced is that he
may have been picked mp by recon
noitering party. From that time until
the present nothing has been seen or
heard OF Major Rockefeller. Following
the usual custom, he was dropped as
deserter. Now the story is out that he
is in China, broken down old man.
He has, it is said, thrown aside the
soldiers garb forever.

THE FOOTBALL GIRL.
sedate in Appearance, But Savage
Heart.

Heart.
New York tslIn.
With the coming of the autumn the
usual symptoms Of feminine admira-
tion fer the football hoy breaks out In
the form of purchases of photographs
of players and of tho pins and peunants
of the various colleges. Parties of girls
take trains to distant POINTS to witness
practice games between the varsity
men and the scrubs. The enthusiasm
which the modern girl evinces on the
subject of the football game and its
player is an entirely different form of
hysteria from that lavished upon the
matinee actor.
The latter admiration is of the spirit
and is sentimental and sympathetic.
Matinee actor worship is wrongly des-
cribed as mawkish or silly. 1t is always
the hero or the sentiment or deed that
is worshipped-not the player. But
there is something wild and terrible in
the fine and exultant frenzy of enthusi-
asm which an ordinarily sedate young
woman will display over football
game, SO frequently scene of carnage
and gore splitting. The modern girl has
learned to look unmoved upon the
spectacle of man falling unconscious
upon tne neld, Tor 6he has been told
time and again by her brother or some
body else's brother: Hell be all right
in minute. Hes had the wind
knocked out Of him; that's ALL" She
has grown to accept these happenings
as inevitable; but the widn, IS of her
cheers and the wavings OF her flags and
handKerobIefs would seem to indicate
some innate savagery or Indian instinct
lurking beneath her autumn coat. At
one of the games last year between the
Carlisle Iudian players and the Yale
men boy selling score card passed
among the girls on the grandstand. One
of them, a blonde, blue-eyed, angelic
looking girl, whose brother was with
Yale. said 10 the boy neryously:
"Do you think they will win?''
"Who d. yer mean-de Chinks or do

Boleros and bolero effects are shown
