The injured were all taken to Mercer
dale for treatment as quickly as the re-
lief train from Cumberland could get
them there.
The train which was ditched was the
through passenger bound for New
York. It was a full vestibuled train.
In going down the steep grade one and
one-half miles west of Glencoe, the en-
CINE from some cause as yet unexplaln-
ed, jumped the track at the curve and
the entire train piled on top of it Pro
badly the only thing that prevented an
appalling death list was the fact that
the heavy vestibule cars did not break
up In going over the enbankment
The work of rescue had to be done
quickly because the gas tanks in the
cars were exploded and set fire to the
wreckage. The flames spread rapidly
and in a short time the entire train
was burned. The engine was complete
ly demolished and the two dead men,
when taken from the debris, were hor-
ribly mangled. Collins (who went by
the nickname of katy twas one of the
Oldest engineers on the road.
As soon after the accident as possible
a relief with physicians and nurses was
sent to the scene from Cumberland, and
the injured were soon after taken to
Mercerdale, Pa, where every attention
is being paid to them.
General Superintendent Woodford
says he has been unable as yet to as
certain the cause of the accident.

DECISION FOR BERNSTEIN.
Lively Fifteen Round Boxing Contest
With Tommy White.

ST. Louis, Jan. 2.-Joe Bernstein of
New York was awarded the decision
over Tommy White of Chicago by
Referee Stewart New Years day at the
the West End club. The decision, in the
opinion of many at the ringside, was
an injustice to the Chicago boxer.
White landed repeatedly with left jabs
throughout the fight. In the early
rounds Bernstein attempted to rush, but
left counters, beautifully timed, stop
ped him. In every round White landed
repeatedly with his left on Bernstein's
face. Bernstein would rally near the
end of each round, and for about thirty
seconds would rush and rough matters,
doing, however, little or no damage to
White. The N en- fought at 126 pounds.

Winfield, Kan, Jan. 2-Clyde Moore, the
young Arkansas City boy who was con-
victed of the murder of c. L. Wltberger
in the November term of court, was taken
before Judge Mcbride to be sentenced
His attorneys had filed a motion for a
new trial on the grounds that the court
had erred in admitting much erroneous
testimony and that the prosecution had
introduced evidence on the theory of a.
conspiracy which they had never attempts
ed to prove. Attorney Atkinson of Arl1an-
sas City argued that before the court
could admit such testimony it neces-
sary to prove conspiracy. After hear
ing the arguments Judge Mcbride over
ruled the motion and will sentence Moore
the latter part of the week.

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGs, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening Iaxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used. as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants, by method
known to the CALIFORNIA Ere SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please
