Northwestern Likely IL Dis.sn.
tina: f.';a.::: Transportation.
1t is the intention of the
Northwestern railroad accord
ing to rumors i'm circulate M in
the general Offices yesterday. to
discontinue free transportation
privileges to the families of
empl oyes in general Offices liv-
ing along tn. line of the road.
Complaints have been nude of
the misuse of these tickets and
it is not improbable that the
company may also discontinue
the practice Of supplying its
employees with transo ,rtationto
and from their homes in the
suburbs.
In view Of the fact that
hundreds of the employees Of
the company own homes in the
suburban towns along the line
of the road the rumor to the Of
feet that the company intended
dispensing with the free trans
portation for themselves and
the members of their immediate
families caused CONSERVATION.
The Northwestern is one of the
few roads that have discontinue
ed this practice and because q
small proportion Of the tran
sportation may have been mis-
used it is claimed by the en-
ployes that this is no reason
why the privilege should be
denied the majority. Although
the matter has not been decid-
ed upon by the officials of the
company several conferences
have been held and the matter
discussed. Chicago Chronicle.
Charles B. Lacy, of New York,
says: "Without disiring to pass
unfrendly criticism, one cannot
help but note the difference be-
tween Americans and represen-
tatives of other races. | have
just recently been abroad, and
while in Europe and on the con-
tinent contrasted the Ameri-
cans whom l met over there
With the foreigners. 1t can lie
said without indulging in nation
al vanity, that both our men and
women are better-looking phys
ical specimens of the race than
the people of the old world. An
other very noticeable thing is
how much the Americans lead
in the way of dress; their clothes
look smarter, fit better, and are
chosen with better taste. Along
side of a New Yorker the ave-
rage Londnner, even though a
person of good status socially,
is rather "slobby" of attire. So
far as the fair sex is concerned,
our women are so much more
pleasing to view than their tras-
Atlantic sisters that there is no
comparison"
Some patrons of telephones
do not fully appreciate their
uses. The following is some
thing like what can be heard on
a line when a person is trying
to talk to a neighboring town.
"Hello there. Is that you Jen-
nie?' "Sho, its me, Josh, tie he
he" How're coming" "Just
lovely "Where are you at?"
"'m here at Smiths. "Who's
there?' ''Oh, | hate to tell We.
"There's Sallie Spriggins, Hope
Moner and We know who, tie he
he" "Say, Josh, if yell come
down it will be awfully SPLEEN

ceiver was hung up. Persia

should reign among all men. Under the
tree in the Garden Of Eden, from which
the forbidden fruit was plucked, the
serpent began TO stir up malice and
envy and jealousy and revenge and war
among the human family, and has kept
stirring these human passions of de-
struction ever since. But the Son Of Man
came according to prophecy to bruise
the serpent's head. The old law said,
an eye for an eve and tooth for
tooth. The new law that Christ taught
is this-''Thou shalt love they neighbor
as myself" Love your enemies, bless
them that curse you, do good to them
that hate you, and pray for them which
despitefully use you and prosecute you"
Good will toward men," Write it on
the threshold of every home. Teach it
in every school house. Print it across
every lane made in city. state and ma
ton. Ring it forth from every church
bell. Sing it in every anthem of praise
until the will os God shall be done on
earth even as it is now being done in
heaven. Even now we may look for
ward in joyful anticipation to the glad
days when the prophecy of the angels
shall have been fulfilled and every
creature shall sing glory to God in the
highest while over the earth benign
peace reigns and good will prevails be-
tween God and man.

caught between the engine and heavy
train, crumpled up like pasteboard, on
ly the roof remaining partially IN
broken. The big blind mail car heav-
lily bulkheaded, took the brunt of the
blow, but withstood the crash and COM
municated it to the smoker next in the
rear. The smoker was swept clean as
the mail car telescoped its entire length
and turned over at the north side of
the track. The smoker in turn crashed
several feet into the parlof car and it
was at the rear end Of the smoker and
forward end Of the cafe car where all
the passengers were killed and injured.
From space six feet square, the bodies
of two women, a boy and man were
taken out.
The west-bound flyer with its heavy
bulkheaded cars, stayed on the rails,
back Of the baggage and mail cars, and
the passengers in this train escaped Sc
rious injury.
AS one man they rushed out of the
train to assist the less fortunate ones
on the train from this city. Many
stripped warm overcoats from their
backs and covered the suffering injur-
ed as they were borne to the less shat
tered cars of No. and into the remains
OF the parlor car No. g. Nearby farm
ers, hearing the crash, turned out with
blankets and did valiant service.
According to statements made by Off
Gals of the Pere Marquette, the west
bound train was travelling down grade
at the rate Of sixty miles an hour. The
east-bound train was climbing the hill
at a speed of forty miles an hour.
The former carried probably rs pas
sengers, while the latter is believed to
have been carrying at least 125 per-
sons. The two trains collided at about
the middle of long, sweeping curve.
three-quarters Of a mile west Of East
Paris. On the inner side Of the curve
is high embankment, preventing a
view of the track ahead. When the en-
gines met, one turned completely over
and lay headed in direction opposite
to that in which 1t had been travelling.
The other climbed the wreckage Of the
first, it's boiler torn from the trucks,
standing erect In the center of the deb
ris.

THE JUSTICES GOWN.

Justice Bradwell received his first
Christmas present yesterday. He was
given what he described as green silk
ball gown with porte-cochere of en-
bonpoint and a hurricane deck of green
tulle."
The git was the result of suit
brought by Mrs. Boggs against Mrs,
Sheldon. both OF State and Forty-third
streets.
'She owes me Sill for fixing the
sleeves Of that ball gown" said Mrs.
Boggs.
why, how can you-mercy!" retorted
Mrs. Sheldon. "You know you spoiled
the. dress and wouldn't take it. And.
besides. you owe me 50 for the stuffed
mango peppers made for your old So
ciable, and $3.45 for the bird cage YOU
borrowed and never brought back. and
81 for the jelly you got at my house,
not to speak of the times I fed YOU
when you were sick, and -"
Mrs. Sheldon had to stop moment to
get her breath. and Justice Bradwell
broke in with: -

Both women fiounced out OF the court
room, each Of them saying:

they had crashed together and that
there was an awful loss Of life.
The west-bound engine, No. 397, drove
through No. 6's engine like a wedge,
separating the gear from the boiler and
standing the latter on end like a brok-
en-, twisted shell. The running gear
was crumpled up like so much Irvine.
Great cast-steel side rods bent into
many shapes, and even the steel rods
of the driving wheels split and sprung
from the wheels, landing in some cases
ten feet from the engine. The boiler of
engine No. 397 turned over several
times, and the very force of the twist
ing impact seems to have been the
means of saving the life of Engineer
Waterman. He was flung forty feet
over the fence at the edge of the right
of way. Meen. his fireman, was sitting
on the opposite side of the cab, and he,
too, was thrown clear of the pile of
wreckage.

A dispatch from Washington says:
DR.. Oliver ]. D. Hughes of Meriden,
consul general of Coburg, Germany, has
resigned his position and the president
has named Henry D. Sayler OF Penn
sylvania as mis- successor
Or. Hughes was appointed in the
consular service in 1898 and was first
assigned to Sonneberg, Germany
where he served three months, when
he was transferred to his present post
and was raised to consul general at a
salary OF $4,000 per year.
Some time ago charges were filed
against him. The state department
officials refuse to discuss the charges
or the reason Of his resignation.
Senator Plat is out Of the city and
Congressman Sperry said he had never
heard Of the charges and knew OF no
reason why DR.. Hughes should resign.
It is intimated, however, that the
cause was of family nature. +
DR.. Hughes will continue at his post
until the arrival Of his successor.

1t is not generally known, says the
Norwalk Hour, but the old arc lights
of the city of South Norwalk and the
dynamos were broken up as junk on
the premises and taken to Boston. The
commissioners found that the old fix
lures would bring more as junk than
could be realized from them from sec
ond-hand dealers. The dynamos were
broken up for the copper. The sum OF
$1,000 was realized from these sales,
and helped to such an extent that when

the addition to the plant and the sys-.
tenn, there will be surplus out of the

1T was in the family of Dalryrnple of
Stair, represented BY the late earl, that
the tragic events occurred on which Sir
Walter Scott founded HIS Bride Of
Lanmermoor." Scott has followed the
actual circumstances very closely. Janet
Dalrymple, daughter of the first Lord
Stair, became engaged, without the
knowledge OF her parents, to Lord
Rutherford, who was not favored by
them. On being pressed by Lady Stair
to receive the addresses of the sutton
her parents desired-David Dunbar Of
Baldoon-she confessed her engage
n1ent. But her mother prevailed on her
to return the piece of gold which was
the emblem Of her troth--pretty much
in the circumstances narrated by Scott.
Lord Rutherford went abroad, where he
died in 1855. The marriage between ia
net Dalrymple and Balloon was pro-
ceeded with, and in the bridal chamber
took place the terrible catastrophe de-
scribed in the novel. The bride when
found was absolutely insane, and she
survived her marriage only some nine
teen days. Balloon recovered from his
wounds. but prohibited all Inquiries as
to the way in which he had received
