by the willing emigrants who were riding
in the rear cars. worked hard TO release the
sufferers.

came. His was terrible position and he
suffered for almost an hour before he was

All of the injured were detained here
where they will be well cared for until
their condition will allow them 10 proceed

four passenger coaches and three freight
cars were demolished. The cause of the
is that the freight was running a lap on

Zone Egg a Day all We
Ask"

Washington, July l9.-Director Wal.
colt of the Geological Survey has writ.
ten long letter to the OWL Service
Commission asking for permission to
employ the services of a competent hen
that will lay one egg day for the Sur
vey. The egg is needed for making the
albumen coating for photo photographic
work.
The letter states that the Survey is in
immediate need of an egg. and says:
I'm making requisition on the In
terror Department for an egg we always
experience much delay in getting au.
thority to purchase from the lowest
bidder, and the goods, owing to the
methods of purchase. are not always i'll
prime condition. Ii would seem wise.
therefore, to take some definite steps in
the matter.
The hen of the United States Geo.
logical Survey should be capable of IA
steady daily output. One egg day
is all we ask, but there should be no
question about its delivery OH time"
The Civil Service will give the re-
quest careful consideration.
