Canal Dover, O., Dec. IA carload
Of people returning home from the
theater on a suburban. ear narrowly
escaped, being crushed to death near
here Saturday night. The car was tho
last one returning to New Philadel'
phia after the show here, and waa
crowded. At the edge OF town the
street car crosses the C.& p. railroad,
which rounds big curve, making 1t
impossible to see far down the tracks.
The street car had just started over
the tracks when the headlight of an
engine flashed around the curve. Pan.
ic reigned among the passengers, who
struggled to get out of the car
through the front door, the jam max
ing it impossible for single person to
escape. One woman tainted and sew
eral went into Mysteries.
Floyd Craddock, of New Philadel-
pbia, was the motorman. and to his
presence Of mind is due the escape
from death. With the passengers of
the car crowding out upon him he
jumped upon the sand lever, and brae-
ing himself again the door pulled the
reverse lever wide open. The car
started back with jerk, and was
barely a few feet off the track when
the train went by.

{. Recently the venerable DIR. John e..
Patton, the Presbyterian missionary
stated in a speech in New York while
visiting in this country that ''he urged
that civilized nations refrain from
sending intoxicating liquor to the
missionary whose life had been three
times attempted was SO respected by
the people that not one of them when
sober would moiest him. and many
would 60 to his defense and risk their
lives to protect HIN, but under the in.
fiuence OF liquor the old savage bru-
taiity reasserted itself and his life was
IN constant peril. All the good that
was being done was menaced by the
cargoes of intoxicating liquors that
were brought to the heather lands,
and sold to the natives by merchants
trading under the flags of Christian
nations. ~
IL
ton that when our missionaries are
sent to convert the heather, that in
the same vessels that convey the mis-
sionarles may be found great cargoes
of New England rum and other intoX-

Iby our merchants and liquor dealers,
because they can thus make money,
not stopping to consider that this traf-
fic ruins ten times more than the mis-
sionaries can save. Mohammedan ma
tions will not tolerate it. but Chris
tian nations like those in America and
In England do this very thing.
We in the United States claim to be
In the forefront of progress and civil

this deadly traffic and protecting 1t at

Gods blessing to remain upon us as a
nation. A traffic that carries more
people to their graves than war, pes

any nation for protection and especial
