FATALITIES ON ELK SPECIAL
Two Killed, Four Fatally Injured and Thirty
or Forty Hurt In Derailment of an Elk
Special near ChehaliS.

The seventh coach held to the rails
Nearly every one in the first coach
was injured. Many Of them sustained
broken legs or arms. Those who es-
capped pulled the injured from the
wreck Several doctors were on the
train and they bound the wounds and
set the broken limbs. A messenger
hurried to Chehalis with the news and
a train of fiat cars was sent to the
wreck to bear the injured to the hos
pital. Every doctor in Chehalis and
Centralia hurried to the wreck and

That Never Sails.
The captains authority over an ocean
liner and equally, Of course, his respon-
sibility for her, extend only over the
time when she Is crossing the sea.
Practically the responsibility ceases
when she approaches land on either
side, for the pilot assumes charge of
her navigation as soon as he comes
aboard. When the ship arrives at her
pier, or as soon, to be exact, as she is
within hailing distance. the captain is
no longer in control. She is then under
the authority Of the marine superin-
tendent, who Is In command Of the
piers and tugs and harbor front equip
ment of the line and who takes charge
Of the docking Of all vessels.
To bring giant liner to rest at her
pier is q delicate operation. The flow
of the tide, the headway impaired by
her engines before they stop, the depth
Of the water, must all be taken into
consideration, for the quarters are mar

trolls the great vessel perfectly. and
with tugs helping her and cables draw
ing her she glides into her resting place
as quietly and easily as tired child
slips beneath the covers at night.
Practically, from the moment when
the liner is made fast she is turned
over to the crew that never sails. Her
officers remain on duty. and their work
Is as arduous and almost as incessant
in port as at sea. But the law requires
that the crew of each vessel shall be
paid off and discharged at the end Of
every voyage. In the case Of the liner
they are again signed Immediately. but
during the period while the vessel lies
in port they are not officially connected
with her, and the work which naturally
would fall to their lot is performed by
the port crew.-Earl Mayo in Leslie's

OUR INSTINCT TO CHEW.
II Manifests Itself In Numerous and
Curious Ways.

C0r1O0S Woye.
Seeing that the maXillary apparatus
Of man has for long ages past been put
to vigorous 'ase, 1t is not surprising that
the need to exercise it should express
itself as a powerful instinct. This in
stinct manifests itself In many and
curious ways. During the early months
Of life the natural function Of feeding
at the breast provides the infants
jaws, tongue and lips with all the need
full exercise. This bottle feeding fails
to do. and we frequently find bottle fed
children seeking to satisfy the natural
instinct by sucking their thumbs. fin-
gers or any convenient object at hand.
The teeth are provision for biting
hard foods, but even before they actu-
ally appear we find the child seeking
to exercise his toothless gums ON any
hard substance he can lay hold Of, and
there can be no doubt that exercise Of
this kind tends to facilitate the erup-
ton Of the teeth, a truth indeed recog-
nized universally, whether by the prim-
tive mother who strings the tooth Of
some wild animal round the neck Of
her infant or the up to date parent
who provides her child with bejewel-
ed ivory or coral bauble.
When the teeth have erupted. the
masticatory instinct finds among priini-
tive peoples abundant satisfaction in
the chewing Of the coarse. hard foods
which constitute their dietary; but
among us moderns, subsisting, as We
do, mainly on soft foods, affording but
little exercise for the masticatory ap
paratus. 1t does not find its proper ex
preston, and thus tends to die out
Nevertheless 1t dies hard death an'
long continues to assert itself. Witnes

pencils and penholders have known
q child. to gnaw through a bone pen
holder much in the same way as a
carnivorous animal gnaws at bone.
This instinct to chew for chewing's
sake manifests itself all over the world.
In our own country not only do chill
dren bite pencils and penholders. but
they will chew small pieces Of india
rubber for hours together. The prac-
tice Of gum chewing. so common among
our American cousins, evidently comes
down from faroff times. for the primi-
tive Australians chew several kinds of
gum, attributing to them nutrient
qualities, and the Patagonians are said
to keep their teeth white and clean by
chewing matri, gum which exudes
from the incense bush.-Lancet.

LORD SALISBURY is DEAD
Ex=Premier of Great Britain BreatheS His
Last at His Home, In the Midst of
His Family Circle.

London, August 24.-Lord Salisbury
died peacefully at 9O5 o'clock Satur-
day night
During the past forty-eight hours
the end was seen to be inevitable, and
the great frame of England's former
premier was sustained only by the con
slant use of oxygen. Even the admin
istration of oxygen failed of effect as
the evening advanced, and soon after
the shadows had crept up from the
valley and enshrouded the dull red
walls of Hatfield house, the distin-

fort of his life, turned slightly toward

The first record concerning mirrors
dates back to the days Of the venerable
Moses, and they were made Of brass.
When the Spaniards landed in South
America they found mirrors of polished
black stone in use among the natives
In the fifteenth century the first glass
mirrors were made In Germany by a
blowpipe, and were convex. The first
mandatory Of glass mirrors for sale
was established in Venice early in the
sixteenth century. In the reign Of
James I. men, women and children
wore looking glasses publicly. the men
as brooches or ornaments in their hats
and the women at their girdles or on
their bOsoms.

Smallnox Scare at MOler,s.

A good deal Of excitement was
caused in the vicinity of Moler's Cross
Roads yesterday by the report that
there was a case Of smallpox at that
place. A man by the name of Wal
ter Roy, who has been there from time
to time during the past few months,
turned up on Tuesday and took quar-
ters in a small frame building right
at the Cross Roads, Yesterday morn
ing W. J. Knott went to the place to
hire Roy to work on bis farm. He
noticed an eruption Oh the mans face
and asked him what WAS the matter
with him. Il have the smallpox, "
calmly replied Roy. Mr. Knott lost
no time in getting good deal further
away and reported the matter. The
announcement created some couster-
nation, and yesterday evening j. S
Remnant and D. NJ. Koontz came to
town and telephoned to DR.. Venning,
county health officer, at Charles
Town. Dr. Venning promised to 90
over this morning and investigate the
case. Roy SAYS he came from River
ton, Va, where there has been good
deal Of smallpox recently. Some per
sons are inclined TO doubt that he has
the smallpox, but those who have seen
him-at safe di-tance-say he has
some sort Of erupJive disease pretty
badly.

Millennium in 1912.

The statement is made by promi-
nent divine in the west that the mil
lennium will arrive in the year 1912,
and bases his claim on the prophesies of
the Bible. Whether his prophesy is
correct or not, time alone will tell, but
in the meantime we should make the
most out IF our lives, and the first es-
sential TO this is good heath. a slckly
person cannot enjoy life because he
lacks the vigor and vitality necessary
for such enjoyment and consequently
always feels down-hearted and depreSs-
ed. 1t was for such persons that Hos
letter Stomach Btters was first intro
duced fifty years ago, and many persons
to-day can ascribe their good health to
its use. 1t positively cures Indigestion,
