Near Minnekah, Indian Territory,
Friiay, there was headend collision
between passenger and q fret hit train
on the Chicago, Rock Island and Texas
railroad. The trains ware to pass at
certain siding but the freight crew
overlooked the order and passed the
place. When they came together they
were running at almost full speed.

man of the passenger train and the
head brakeman of the freight were
killed and several members of both
crews were badly Injured but the pas
sen gers escaped unhurt.
The train was equipped throughout
with the new steel platforms. The
passenger train was running at the rate
of thirty miles an hour when it ran
into the freight train. The only
damage done to the passenger train
was the front end of the baggage car
slightly crushed, and the passengers
were only shaken up little.
These steel platforms account for the
little damage to the passenger train
according to the Topeka journal. They
practically do away with the DANCE of
cars telescoping in collisions. Most of
the Rock Islands passenger cars are
equipped with the steel platforms.

There were two of US and we had
between US a surplus Of three or four
dollars. We cast about for something
to do with our money. Suddenly
idea occurred to the Three-Spot- It
isn't very often that this happens, but
the surplus probably did it on this
occasion.
Il have it, he said He didn't mean
the money, for the Two-Spot was care
full to keep that in his pocket Il have
it,, he repeated. Lets go along the
street until we find some poor, ragged
children looking eagerly in the shop
windows. Then Wen find out what
they want most and go in and buy
TT
Good replied the Two-Spot, "but
what shall we do with the rest of the
money!
Wen go till we're tired. and
guess they'll be rest for the
weary
recorded here that we had visions of
swarms of ragged children gazing into
every window along the business
streets But in this we were doomed
to disappointment. Early in the aft
ernoon there was not one poor look
ing child who was not trudging along
beside its mother. The latter gener
ally had an armful of parcels and
was evidently intent on purchasing
more Up and down the entire length
or woodward avenue we went With
out spying one child who was a likely
looking candidate for our magnanim-
ity- Then we tried Gratiot avenue
Surely there would be lots of them, we
thought, on Gratiot avenue, little Poles
and German children. But we walked
nearly out to the railroad tracks, up
one side and down the other, and set
eyes on never a one.
The Three-Spot was beginning to
cast eyes some new pipes in the
store windows and made several re-
marks about the desirabi1ity of having
a stein ones mantel.
DO you know said he to the Two
Spot, ct don't believe there are any
poor, ragged children looking into
store win dows.''
The Two-Spot replied that it wasn't
into windows did not begin until
three-thirty or four. Then came to
the front of a very big store, with a
Santa Claus scene up over the great
entrance and sleigh bells jingling
away pleasantly. Here we stood for
some minutes
There they are!,' calculated the
Two-Spot-
Where, whereof asked the Three
Spot.
Right there in the corner of the
window.

She was shown several samples, some
with golden hair, some with dark
hair.
Does it go to s1eep?" she asked, as
one was handed to her She was as
sured it did go to sleep when it lay
on its back, for then the eyes were
closed Then she took it in her arms
and fairly Rugged it and her eyes were
dancing with joy By this time all
four were standing in open mouthed
establishment to see themselves the
possessors of so many things. Each
was holding his selection tightly in his
arms.
Don't get them right now?'
they asked. And they laughed out
right when they were told that this
was to be the case. The Two-Spot
handed the money to the clerk, who
took the things and had them wrapped
up. Two of the little ones were look
ing up at the Two-Spot, two at the
from four little mouths came the Ques-
ton, who are you?'' And the an
swer was the same in both cases-"Oh,
I a friend of Santa Claus
rs this the store where Santa Claus
Hves?"
Then the tables were turned and
the Spots found out from the children
that they lived Woodbridge street
and had ten brothers and sisters. The
Ittl1eSt fellow chung to the TwO-SpOt'S
thumb on the way out, as he had COM
ing in Finally the party came to the
big entrance again.
Now you'll go home and be good
children, won't you?'
Yes they all said in chorus. And
they all turned and smiled goodbye.
AS the little girl passed the Two-Spot
she came close TO him and whispered
the smiling words, Thank you Then
they crossed the street, hand in hand,
a happy little caravan, each huggfng
his precious bundle

Pek1n early in the summer. The rank
ing officer was Lieut.. O1ieveri, an Ita1-
ian, and this command was the total
number bearing arms through the
sixty days siege. In this time four
teen soldiers were killed and 125 men
women and children persisted in the
explosion of three separate mines tun-
neled beneath the building from be
yond the imperial city wall which
protected the Chinese in their work.
Eleven men and women were killed by
the rife fire which swept the COM
pounds, making the total loss in killed
$50. OF the wounded and MANNED
there were nearly 100 more. The Chi
nese sappers were digging night and
day. 1t was only question of days
before the site of the cathedral and
mission buildings would become one
vast and ragged crater a huge pit en-
tombing thousands.
Among those killed in the explosion
of the first mine were forty children at
prayers in their dormitory and thirty
women in the adjoining wing of the
asylum. When the relief column res
cued the survivors on August Is, or
two days after the taking of the city
and the end of the siege of the lega-
lions, the sisters had begun vO1untar-
lily to abstain from food, that what re-
NAMED might be do1ed out among the
children, the refugees and the exhaust
ed soldiers.

Rosie 1x,ncoxs Tu-ke1.

Rosie Wilcox was a little girl of Ii
years She lived with her parents on
a thrifty farm in the Mississippi val
ley. She had one turkey of which she
thought great deal. He had always
been very tame and was a great pet
with all the children who lived on the
surrounding farms His name was
}Bronzie- Rosie named all of her pets.
according to their most striking fea-
ture and his color was bronze. AS all
Mr.. WiIcox's turkeys were young.
Rosie never feared for hers.
One day near Christmas Mr.. Wilcox
said:
I'm ruther sorry, little one, but I'm
a gonter sell yer turkey next week"
Rosie was dumfOunded. and her
father, seeing the panied expression on
her face turned away.
When Rosie had partially recovered
her senses she sat down on the bottom
:rung of the ladder that led to the gra-
nary and thought. At last a bright
thought struck her. She would sell
him to Farmer Max. She knew he
would take good care of him. as he was
making collection of beautiful
fowls of all kinds, and was not Bromide
beautiful? Certainly.
Arriving at this conclusion which
greatly comforted her. she got up and
walked slowly toward the house.
where mamma had been calling her
for at least Is minutes. Next morn
ing after a troubled night. Rosie arose,
and dressing quickly, hurried down the
road with her turkey. She paused in
front of the large white farm house
to recover her breath, and then went
on to the barns, where she the
farmer milking his cows. He was very
glad to take the turkey and promised
Rosie good price for him.
Mr.. Wilcox did not see his daughter
until that noon, when he said:
Yer turkey didn't like his new
home, SO he come a-trottin' inter the
yard 'safternoon IS though he owned
the whole world
Rosie could have cried, but she only
hung her head.
Never mind, Rosie" said her faith
