Crown Princess of Saxonv in which she
is quoted as saying that NJ. Giron is the
only man she ever met whom she felt

Between my husband and myself"
said the princess. there was no bond
of sympathy. He was a typical rough
officer.
Il myself was full of ideals. How
misera BILE that life was. I tried so hard
to bear it for the sake of my darling

they love me.
But all that could not alter my res

hired him for his exclusive attendance
by the year and considered the large
salary paid for such service as a part
of his business investment He did not
do this because he was a hypochon-
driach, in constant fear of illness and
death: on the contrary he was an ex-
ceDtionally robust man, but he realized
that the principal asset in his enormous
business was his own personal health,
and to keep physically and mentally
well and strong was a business PROPOSE

1t is so with every business man and
woman. A slight cold in the head or
throat may pass off in few days, .ar
it may develop into Pneumonia Chronic
Catarrh, or an irritating throat trouble,

fastened by some simple antiseDtic

some opinions, the peoples loyalty and

SANTA FE WRECK.
Limited Is Smashed and Kills
Train Men.

San Bernardino. Cal, Dec. 30.-Santa Fe
overland No. crashed into a light en-
CINE sidetracked at Siam, a station be-
tween Dandy and Needles, at s O'Clock
last night, killing Engineer Charles Hay
ward and badly injuring Fireman A.
Arkills. NJ. L. Shackelford, fireman on
the Overland, was bruised about the body
and had an arm mangled. Engineer Jas.
Gray, of the Overland, escaped by jump
ing.
The light engine left Needles to meet
Overland No. 4. Engineer Hayward had
run to the Sidetrack and was wait
ing for No. to pass. The Overland in
stead of keeping to the main track, took
the siding, the impact was terrible, com
pletely demolishing both engines.
A defective switch is said to have
caused the collision. No passengers were
injured.
This wreck, being on the Santa Fe coast
lines, does not come under the jurisdic
ton of the Santa Fe operating officials
here.
The station of Siam does not appear or
the Santa Fe folder and is probably sim
ply siding. Dandy is 81 miles west OF
Needles The wonderful record which
the Santa Fe has been making for dis
astrous wrecks without any injury to
passengers seems to be keeping up. The
Santa Fe officials attribute their success
in protecting passengers from injury &c
the first class equipment which is USED
for the passenger trains.
No. T. the wrecked train, does not pass
through Topeka. but goes west over the
Emporia cut OF.

correspondent. The closest approach to
a common understanding is the opinion
that the domestic demand for manufac-
lures of all kinds in the United States is
SO great that there is no immediate
prospect of the displacement of British
by American goods, either here or in
neutral markets. When the American
home trade falls off it is admitted that
the surplus products will be sent to
England and to neutral markets with
most damaging effects upon British
trade.
