OHIO MAY NOT BAR FAITH CURE.
Belief That the State Senate Will Not
Pass House Measure.

Columbus Ohio Feb. 15.-It is not
believed that the state senate Will pass
the bill to prohibit the faith cure
practices of Christian Scientists in
Ohio. which was adopted by the house
yesterday. The measure was introduced
by Representative Demuth, of Lucas
county. at the request of the Humane
Society of Toledo. 1t applies only to
children under 16 years of age. and
provides that if child becomes III its
parents must summon registered ply
stefan of recognized school to attend
it. Failure to comply is made punisha-
BILE by tine of from $40 to $500, or inn
prisonment for six months or both.
A number of the house members tried
to amend the bill SO as to require the
services of old school physicians only in
cases of Serious Illness holding that
the mother should not be prevented
from administering the common house
hold remedies to child afflicted with
the lesser juvenile ailments. The
amendment was overwhelmingly voted
down.
In the event the bill becomes law
the osteopaths may be debarred along
with the Christian Scientists. They
have bill to make theirs recognized
school. and the probability is that 1t
will be defeated

Russia May Join Compact.

London, Feb. Is. Many British
statesmen believe that the Anglo Jap
anese treaty is likely to become the
forerunner of number of internation-
al alliances profoundly affecting Europe
and Asia y 1t is thought that the next
move may be an understanding be-
tween England and Russia defining the
spheres of each in that vast region be-
tween Asiatic Turkey and! India bor-
dering on the Persian gulf and the Ara
bian sea.
Those Britishers who favor such an
understanding, among whom are sew
eral highly placed officials Will imme-
diately press the adoption of the policy,
warming the cabinet that unless that
step be taken promptly Germany IS al
most certain to make an arrangement
with Russia for the management of
central Asia affairs, without regard to
British ideas or susceptibility. They
declare that, while Russia probably in
terprets the Anglo Japanese compact
as aimed directly at her. she can not
fail to appreciate how greatly 1t
strengthens England, and therefore will
wish to cast In her lot in central Asia
with Britain rather than with Ger
many.
The possibility of a Russo Chinese
alliance is contemplated, as we'll as va
rious new combinations bearing on the
Levantlne situation and European in
terests in the South Mediterranean.
The British foreign Office does not take
seriously the opinion held in certain
quarters in Germany that Russia will
reply to the Anglo-Japanes covenant
by renewed aggression in Manchuria.

On December IA, last, the proprie-
tors of Paine's Celery Compound found
the following letter among their mail:
They had no correspondence on the
subject; they did not know Mr.. Mus
ham, except by reputation. Like every
testimonial of this great medicine that
was ever printed, it came to them I'M
solicited and unsought. The proprie-
tors of Painc's Celery Compound have
never found it necessary to manufac-
ture or edit any testimonial. They have
never found it necessary by any trick
of advertising to promote mythical
men in far off places to positions
in legislatures or Offices that never
heard of them. 1t is the one of all

increased on account of what it does,
instead of what it says.

the head of the Chicago Fire Depart

has been for forty years in the service;
as brave as a lion, industrious, cool

Ripon, Wis. Feb. 15.-The pickets es-

College to keep away gentlemen callers

evening in the week. AS this advice

The work train was headed west, the
engine pushing six cars and caboose.
Ii was in charge of Conductor j. r.
Gamble. Engineer Major and Fireman
w. n. Evans. AS the train was pass
ing under the high bluffs bordering the
river. two miles west of Little Maui
NEE, the crew saw heavy rock rolling
down the steep declivity, having been
detached from the hillside by the rains.
The train was going slowly, but was
almost upon the rock when 1t struck
the track. Engineer MAJOR reversed his
engine at once, but the train struck it
with almost full force. The caboose
was at the head of the train and was
smashed into splinters. Most of the
men who We're killed and injured were
in the cahoose. There was crew of
fifty-four men. white and colored. Just
back of the caboose were three cars of
sand and many of the men We're buried
underneath the sand which was thrown
forward by the terrific impact. Six
men were killed outright. The injured
We're brought to Little Rock and are
now at ST. Vincent's infirmary. One of
the most severely injured died on the
way to the hospital from the depot.
1t is believed there are others killed
or buried under the sand at the scene
of the wreck, as there are several miss
ing and as yet unaccounted for. If the
engineer had not stopped the train
when he did the entire train would
have been hurled down the embank-
ment and all on board killed.

Agreement With Russian AGENTS.

Pekin, Feb. l5.-The Anglo-Japan-

here yesterday. The chief objection
raised by the diplomats of opposing in

lance which contemplates possible in
tervention in the event of internal dis
turbances in China and Korea. These
diplomats are telling the chief officials
that the new treaty amounts to an An
glo- Japanese protectorate which
threatens China's independence. Chi

the president of the foreign office, pro-
fesses hearty approval of the treaty.
Prince Ching has announced that he
