should Compel Safety Devices.

Entertaining the correct idea that
one of the primary purposes for
which governments are Instituted is
the protection of human life. Rep
resentative Wood. of California. has
written a letter 10 the chairman of
the house committee on interstate
and foreign commerce calling atten-
tion To- the alarming number of rail
way accidents in various parts of the
country and suggesting that congress
should inquire into the causes and
provide Legislative remedies so far as
these are possible.
Mr.. Wood points out that congress
brought about the Use of uniform
safety coupling devices and he says
it should require railway systems en-
gagged in interstate commerce to
adopt the ampIest means of protect
ing the public against accidents.
The suggestion is timely and inn
portant. but the influence of the rail
way corporations at Washington
fOrbids the assumption that it will
he favorably acted on.
Rock Island Argus., 1902-01-21
An Illinois Centenarian.

One of the most remarkable cases
of longevity in this country is that
of Mrs. Elizabeth Shoemaker. of Mon
mouth who according to the Review
of that city. celebrated her 10th
birthday on the 10th day of last De-
cember- having been born December
10. 1891. She has lived in one cen
tury. through another. and il well
started ON the third.
This remarkably long-lived woman
was born i'm Shenandoah county. Nir-
ginia. and her husband died there fif-
ty-twO years ago She il the mother
of six children-the Oldest living
child being the third of the family
il upwards of 20 years old: the sec
Ond is eS, and the third is G6. She
has forty-one grandchildren living,
twenty-eight great grandchildren
and four great-great grandchildren.
She has lived i'm Monmouth about 20
years. and until a few days ago.
when she took up her residence with
her oldest living child. Mrs. Custer.
and the latter's son. Mrs. Shoemak-
er has been for many years a mem
ber of the Christian church.
The Monmouth Review prints a
picture of the five generations taken
some years ago. beginning with this
remarkable woman and ending with
her great-great grandchild. then a
babe. but now a lad of eleven years.
The old lady at present is confined
to her bed and at times loses her
memory of past events; but the doc
tors who have examined her recent
ly. express the opinion that she may
live some years. and gain strength
enough to get around again as she
has been in the habit of doing. 1T Is
only within two years that this CEN
tenarian's strength has failed. She
was formerly a great walker and
within a few years thought nothing
of covering ten miles a day. She is
remarkably bright mentally at most
times for one of her age. and thinks
as much of life and its attractions
as anyone.
The life of this woman almost com
passes the life of this republic. When
she was a young woman New York
state was the fringe of civilization.
When people left Virginia and New
England for the Ohio reservation.
prayers were offered in the churches
for them and the neighborhood as
sembled in solemn leave-taking.
They never expected to see the bold
adventurers again. Chicago was un-
known; California was a Spanish
frontier; the great west was an un-
trodden wilderness. and on the maps
the Dakotas. Minnesota, Nebraska.
Kansas, Colorado were punched as
the Great American Desert, untrOd
den by the foot of man. The mighty

such Stuff as Dreams is a new
book of poems by Charles L. Russell.
with decorations by Virginia Keep

Indianapolis. The work is a beauti-
fully bound collection of songs of
the heart that reflect MIR. RusselIs
attractive style, and added interest
attaches to the volume here in the
Mr.. Russell is former Davenporter.
The son of the late Edward Russell,
for SO many years editor of the Dav-
export Gazette, he possesses the in
herent genius of a fascinating writer.
He was schooled in the old Gazette
Office, and after leaving college, his
rise i'm the ranks of his chosen pro-
fession was rapid. He has been as
sOciated in positions of high respon-
sibility with some of the leading
newspapers in the country. and apart
from being widely known as a news
contributor of verse to the maga-
zines as well as the larger daily pa
pers.

changes of the past century have
all taken place within The
life of this individual, and il marks
conquests greater than that achieved
by Alexander, mightier i'm results
than those of Caesar. Mrs. Shoe
makers life is greater i'm extent than
that of the. patriarch Methusaleh.
who at the end of his 969th year saw
but little change from that of hi
boyhood days. "Bettrr single I,-
cade i'm America than n cycle IN Cath
ay."
Very few people live to pass their
100 years and still fewer live n dec
ade beyond the century mark And
il is unquestionable whether any uu"
should desire to do so. There mrst
he very little satisfaction in remain
ing on the earth separated sur s.rn
erations from those whose coImpan-
ionship once So pleasant, has been
removed by death. \ lonely life
must be that of the centenarian.
Still most of us would be willing TO
accept the sentence to such longevity v
rather than step into the unkn"wn
darkness and experience thc uhtvicd
realities of III. world I" come.
Illinois is a glorious sectiui of the
world to- live in. and il one is fated
to- he a centenarian, there is no place
where exile from oid fine frien'hs
and environments can be more grace
fully endured than iii Illinois.

But Times Have Changed.

The American people are opposed
To any official participation in the
ceremonies incident to the corona
tion of the king of England. 1t is not
because the ceremonies are essen
TALLY ridiculous and mere manifes-
tations of the survival of feudal
fiunkeyism and childish love of show,
but because the sending of an envoy
to take part in the performance
would be national qualification. The
existence of the American republic
is n denial of the right of Edward
or any other man to place a crown
upon his head and pretend that he is
divineIy invested with the power to
rule his fellows. An American envoy
in comic opera clothes. kissing the
hand of Edward, would be virtually
a delegate from the repentant rebel
colonies begging pardon for having
offended his majesty's gracious an
cestor by promuIgating that id
incendiary document" the declara-
tion of ce.-Philadelphia
North American.
The Philadelphia editor forgets.
apparently. that the spirit of Ameri-
can institutions has changed some
what since the declaration of indie
pendence became a back number and
the party in power put in the policy
of Imperialism. which is the maker
of kings and forms.

Danger seems to repose in every
thing. Here is o. \. Gilbert, of Mon
trOse. y. V. who is dead from handl-
ing too much money. He was
banker and in taking in bills over
his counter he became infected with
the smallpox. his wife nursed him
and she also took it. The result of
it is that both of them are dead.
This is an afflictive circumstance. and
yet it will not prevent the uninter-
rupted circulation of the filthy Iucre.
