STRAIN WAS TOO GREAT.
Station Agents Mistake Causes Loss
of REASON

FORT DODGE, Iowa, Aug l3.-James
Green, station agent at Ohio, town on
the Minneapolis & st. Louis railway, Il
few miles north of Fort Dodge, this
morning through confusing orders sent
out gravel train to meet fast freight
coming from the north. When he dis
covered that a collision was inevitable,
Green lost his reason and became vio-
lently insane, being prevented from self
obstruction only by those around him.
He is now under the influence of chloro-
form, and it is feared his reason is per
manently impaired
Green received orders to let the gravel
train go on to pass the freight at Fort
Dodge, but later orders notified him that
they would pass at Otho. BY mistake he
gave the first orders to the gravel train
which had gone too far to be recalled be-
fore he noticed his blunder He wired
Fort Dodge, but the freight had already
left. Then his mind snapped under the
strain
The trains came together on heavy
grade, but the crews jumped and escaped
injury. The engines were badly smashed,
but aside from this the damage was
slight.

gregation called and, after un-
aoading vat Of hot air about
his company playing all the big
houses of the big cibdes and that
Eswell managers were palsled in
their scramble to get ahold of
this one, he asked for advance
notices. He was .told that q
paid advertisement would carry
with it notices from papers
where the company had per-
formed, but that the Chieftain
would not laud his company to
its readers without more assur-
ance than his word that their
performances were worth the
money charged for admission.
The actor man, he of the
abundance of ''llot air. asked
if we would not take tickets in
payment. He consulted as to
paying for an advertisement
and came back with the asser-
tion that "they couldn't stand
it." He then made out six
season tickets but was told that
they "would not get him any
thing" He left them on the
desk saying: "Well, take them
anyway. The tickets laid
there until given away TO the
first askers. Not a person con-
nected with the editorial man
agement or policy Of this paper

one.
When the statement was
made from the stage that the
ticket incident had made the
Chieftain "sore at the show"
the speaker knew that he was
lying. The Chieftain. had no
grievance and did not care for
the company nor lis perform

the other. 1t was Gate Satur-
day afternoon, at the urgent So
licitation of several business

to make the protest, well know

Der to attend from the class who

we protested.

were "cut out, but it still re-
mains true that no self-respect-

ter, or any lady he respected,
TO witness a performance ofl
Sapho as it was originally pre-
sented by Olga Nethersale in
New York, if he knew in ad-
vance the nature of the play.
The fact that after the Chief
tain reached the people Satur-
lay night the assurance was
given that all vulgarity would
be expunged was the reason for
he attendance of more than
5wo-thirds Of the audience
among whom were some of the

The performance at the opera
house Saturday night was a
presentation of what is known
in theatrical parlance as "Sa-
pho No. g." or the original
Sapho, prohibited in many
towns, rewritten with the vul-
garity and suggestive immoral
ity expunged.
AS presented no person, how
ever prudish, could object.
There was a large attendance
and the only possible "kick''
could come from those who
seldom let loose Of a quarter for
other than absolute personal
necessities, but who bade fond
goodbye to a two-bit piece Sat
urday night with the expecta-
tion of receiving several gilpins
worth of iimmorality. These,
of course, were disappointed
The objection to the presenta-
ton of Sapho made public in
The Chieftain gave one of the
actors an opportunity often
sought for by repertoire shows
to present the ancient and ster-
eotyped method of dazzling, by
an exhibition of a dummy roll
of greenbacks which he wanted
to wager that q performance Of
Sapho was never suppressed.
When seen to get his money
covered he hastily "re-nigged
under the assertion that he
meant "this Sapho. Sapho No.

That is another story as No.

Sapho was written simply be-
cause the first version was SO
vulgar as to disgust even old
time FOUNDERS Of New York and |
Chicago whose moral sensibili-
ties are admittedly blunted.
The company, however, caused
bills to be distributed picturing
a portion of the staircase scene
and the presumption that they |
would present what they adver-
tised was certainly a fair one.
However, so clever are the
cast of this repertoire company,
that it is also safe to presume.

gar version with the same nom

Much Business The members of
DISPOSED o. Chautauqua circle
devoted the greater part of their
time at the meeting Sunday last
to perfecting arrangements for the
quarterly meeting, which will be
held on June Is, and to discussing
matters of interest outside the
regular routine business. It was
moved that the mock congress be
abolished, at least for the time be-
ing, and a more regular debate
instituted in it's place. The
gentleman who made this motion
was under the impression, being
comparatively new member of
the orgat ization, that the mock
congress did not allow a wide
enough latitude of discussion.
The circle, however, was of the
opinion that the congress was one
of the most entertaining features
of the meetings and the motion
was lost.
After a chorus by the glee
club, a member of class B de-
livered a short address on the life
and work of John Howard, the
great prison reformer of the
eighteenth century. He was fol-
lowed by class D man who read
a special paper on the war writings
of the late Stephen Crane. 1.-TWO
Influences" was the title of the
class report by the leader of class
A, and this was followed by a
recitation, Riley's "Seein' Things
at Night" by a member of class
B. A violin solo by one of the
choristers and the report of the
critic brought the meeting to a
close.

unbolted the door and ran to the
house, the bear pursuing. She
succeeded in reaching a place of
