A Pretty Sensible View OfIt.

Iu spite of our dreams of universal
peace and the complete brotherhood of
man, we cannot help feeling now and
then that war is the only regenerator of
nations. What will lit Turkey from her
degradation but fire and sword? She is
sunk in iniamy, cruelty and superstition,
and left to herself can never extricat,
herself from the mire, She is also con
stantly committing outrages on the
subjects of other nations-and answering
their protests with insoience. Would ii
not be a good thing-is It not the duty
oflhe civilized world to cleanse this siuk
of iniquity, make it wholesome AMI start
its polluted people on the way to moral
progress The Sultan, unless grossly
misrepresented, is the prototype OF al!
that is vicious and pernicious in morals
and government. His palace is nest OF
iniquity and the seat of the most often
sive tyranny. He is an international
highwayman, and the subjects of no
Christian nation are secure in his do
mains. What are war ships good for il
not to chastise such creatures and enforce
obediance to the common laws ofnalional
decency 9-Punxy Spirit.

The little daughter of Mr.. J. N. Powell
jumped on an inverted rake made of ten
penny nails, and thrust one nail entirely
through her foot and a second one halt
way through. Chamberlain's Pain Balm
was promptly applied and five minutes
later the pain had disappeared and no
more suffering was experienced. In
three days the child was wearing her shoe
as usual with absolutely no discomfort.

THERE have been so many inquiries as
to the pronunciation of the name of Presi-
dent Roosevelt that the authentic pronuu-
citation viii be Of interest to many people.
The name is composed of three syllables
and is pronounced as if spelled Rose-a-
welt, with the accent on the first syllable.
Practically the same sound is obtained
by spelling the name Ro-sie-velt, with
the accent on the first syllable. Assis-
tant Secretary Loeb said few days ago
that he has been asked thousand times
as TO the pronunciation. Probably the
majority of the people pronounce the
name with the sound of the two o's, but
this is incorrect.

IN the recent drubbing which the peo-
pie of Philadelphia gave to the fake re-
formers the Inquirer of that city merits a
large share of credit. That stalwart jour
nal stood firmly, single handed and alone
against the seven subsidized papers OF
that city, and fought the great battle of
Republicanism and decency. winning
out by a crushing majority. The people
have become so accustomed TO Editorial
Page Of the Wanamaker Store" that thev
put absolutely no confidence in the daily
harangue of the editorial writer's, know
ing how completely they are controlled
by the page advertisements. The people
of Philadelphia are to be congratulated
on having at least one unpurchaseable
paper that can be relied upon.

ALL three of the propo. ed amendments
TO the constitution were carr ed in the
State by decisive msjorities although the
aggregate vote shows that less than one
third the vote was cast on these questions
that were given the State candidates, the
people evidently being undecided as to
the advisability of the adoption of the
changes which the amendments seek to
bring about. These amendments are now
part of the organic law, and it now tests
with the legislature to pass the proper
legislation making them effectual.
II voting machines are adopted, as the
third amendment permits. there will
doubtless be "a howl in Rome" when the
expense accounts are footed up, for they
will be nothing short of enormous. If
personal registration for the entire State
should he required there would be an
other big kick, for it is difficult already
to get the qualified electors out to the
polls, say nothing about compelling them
to personally visit the assessor at the
polling place to have their names regis
tered.

Collision Of Two Freight Trains
on the Panhandle.
BODIES BADLY MUTILATED
Part of Logansport Fire Department
Went TO Assistance-One Body Al
most Entirely Consumed - Fire
Made Work Of Rescue Difficult.

Logansport, Ind, Oct. -Four Pan
Handle railroad trainmen met death
near onward, IA miles southeast of
here, Sunday morning in a rear-end
collision of freight trains. The bodies
Of three Of the dead were taken out
badly mutilated, but the fourth was
almost entirely consumed by flames,
which broke out soon after the wreck,
before the wrecking crew could sub
due the fire sufficiently to permit
work in that portion of the debris.
The dead: Ebert Greeley, conduc-
tor; Thomas II. Brosius, fiagman; s..
A. Galbreath, brakeman; John Hutchi-
son, fireman.
Injured: Frank PATTERSON, engineer.
During the night Conductor Weaver,
in charge of the second section of a
train, consisting of an engine and two
cabooses, left Hartford Clty for Logan
sport. In the rear caboose were Gal
breath, Brosius and Greeley, who had
been working or the gravel train at
Han tfoTd City and who were en- route
their famines.
All were asleep when the train
stopped near Onward to make up
steam. The flagman was sent out to
watch for the third section, and no
danger vas thought of until the train
doomed up too close for any of the men
TO escape except Weaver, who jumped
and got off uninjured. Ine third sec
ton, with Engineer Frank Patterson
at the throttle, had attained high
speed, and VIXEN it struck the caboose
of the second section the engine
reared in the air, turned entirely
around and came down on it's side in
the ditch. A number of cars were
smashed into kindling wood. The
sleeping trainmen in the caboose of
the second section and Fireman Hutch
inson of the third section were buried
in the mass Of debris.
The wreckage Immediately caught
fire and the flames prevented the in
jured trainment and others who gath
cred from nearby houses from at
tempting TO extricate the dead bodies
of the trainmcn. special train con-
veyed a part of the Logansport fire
department to the scene. The fire was
extinguished and the work Of remov-
ing the bodies begun. The remains
of Galbreath, Hutchinson and Greeley
were found, but the body of Brosius
was almost entirely consumed.
The wreck was most disastrous. Six
cars were burned from the third sec
ton, which with the two cabooses and
the ruined engine, make lie loss a
large one.
The bodies of the victims were
brought here and placed in the morgue
awaiting removal TO their homes.

trunk, but the left arm appeared to
have been bent around, and lay across

of age, was feet inches tall. She
had on a light-cOlored shirt waist,
pinned together with gold-plated clasp
pins set with glass stars. The collar
was OF black silk ribbon with red
stone pins at the throat and back. A
black belt and sash encircles the
waist and remnants of what had been
a red skirt, trimmed with black vel

heavier one was of brown flannel
checked with light stripes. The wom-
an had evidently been well dressed
but the flesh was so far fallen away
that nothing could be distinguished Of
the features.
The hole in which the body was
found had evidently been scraped out
