Two Mp. Wrecks.

The North Coast Limited, due in
Dickinson at I o'clock Tuesday morning,
was wrecked Monday afternoon near
Detroit Lake; MINI. The engineer.
John Mason, went under with his engine
and was instantly killed.
The fireman jumped from his cab and
escaped without any very serious injury.
An open switch was the cause OF the
wreck in which several cars were piled
up. Several passengers were bruised
but none received serious injury.
D. B. Zimmerman Of Somerset, Pa,
was in the above wreck and feels thank
full hat he got out without a scratch. He
arrived in Dickinson a little after !
o'clock Tuesday afternoon and related
his experience to a throng of old &C.
quaintances who gathered about him.
Tuesday night the eastbouad North
Coast Limited, due in Dickinson at a
few minutes past8 O'Clock was wrecked
a short distance west Of South Heart.
Engineer Jas. Mcdonald was running
his train at its usual speed, and no one
seems able to account for the accident.
There was no.one injured but there were
seemingly some very close calls. The
tank left the track, the engine remaining
in tact and the first five or six cars we're
piled up-thrown over, croswise Of the
rails and in all sorts of shapes. The
dining car was derailed but was not
injured and the Pullmans am observa-
| ton car remained in their places. 1t
took ten or twelve hours to clear the
wreckage away so the trains could pass.
| AL. Nichols was conductor IN No. 2 and
Tink Dehlinger was fireman.

Tendency of the Times.

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventive measures. The
best thought of the world is being Civ
en- to the subject. 1t Is easier and bet
ter to prevent tnan to cure. 1t has
been fully demonstrated that pneu
monia, one of the most dangerous dis
eases that medical men have to con
tend with, can be prevented by the
use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
Pneumonia always results from a cold
or from an attack of influenza (grip)
and IL has been observed that this
remedy counteracts any tendency OF
these diseases toward pneumonia,
This has been fully proven in many
thousands of cases in which this rem
edy has been used during the greatest
prevalence of colds and grip in recent
years, and can be relied upon with
implicit confidence. Pneumonia often
results from a slight cold when no
danger is apprehended until 1t is sud
denly discovered that there is fever
and difficulty in breathing and pains
in the chest, then it is announced that
the patient has pneumonia. BE on the
safe side and take Chamberlain's
Remedy as soon as the cold
Is contracted. IL always cures. For

The Penurious Carlyle.

IL is no drawback for a Christmas
gift TO be useful as well as ornamental.
but there Is pathos in Carlyle's presen-
tation OF n washing table to his wife
at Christmas, 1850. At that time he
had long escaped poverty, but could
conceive nc more pleasing gift than
this most unitarian article which he
promised in a note which the curious
may still read at his house in Cheyne
row:
The Prophecy of a washstand to the
neatest OF all Women. Blessings on her
bonny face and be II ever blithets me, as
II Is dear blithe or not 7. CARLYLE.
Dec. %. 1860.
This message appears to have been
written In a hurry, as IL Carlyle, hear
ing the clocks strike midnight, exclaim-
ed: God bless my soul! It's Christ
mas day. JEANNE should have q pres
ent. She spoke Of n washstand the
other day. She shall have it." And
be forthwith penned the promise there
Of. Anyway. he gave a five pound
note, and Mrs Carlyle bought a marble
and mahogany washstand. London

Hayy N nuNnlo RIMS.

The world has read the exaggerated
description Of a buffalo stampede. but |
don't believe anybody has ever done
justice to the wonderful speed Of a buff
falo when lost from the herd and try
ing TO catch up, says n man of expert
ence. 1t is n deceptive gait. The man
who never saw it before would swear
that he could outrun the animal bare
footed. But the fastest horse ridden by
cowboys couldn't catch a buffalo when
running alone.
Its marvellous lope, steady and endur-
ing, carries 1t over the prairie at a
speed that would make a race horse lie
down and cry ut the end of the first
mile. But the buffalo keeps this gait
up all day, and at night his great
tanks show no signs of fatigue.

NATIONS AND LAUGHS.
The Various Ways Different Peoples
Have of Showing Mirth.

Have of Showing Mirth.
All the world laughs, though the ma
tons have different ways of showing
mirth. The Chinese laugh is not as
hearty OF as expressive as the Euro
pcan or American. 1t is oftener a tit
ter than a genuine burst of merriment.
There is little character or force in ii.
AS for the Arabian laugh, we hear
little Of its hilarious ring through the
ages Of mirth In the old world. The
Arab is generally n stolld fellow, who
must see good reason for n laugh or be
surprised into 1t. In Persia a man who
laughs Is considered effeminate. but
free license is given to female merri-
ment.
One reads Of the grave Turk" and
the sober Egyptian" but 1t is not re-
corded that they have never moments
Of mirth. when the fez hobs or the veil
shakes under the pressure Of some par
ticularly good thing" In Mohammed
himself Christian writers have noticed
cordiality and jocoseness, and they say
there is a good ringing laugh In the
prophet. with all his seriousness.
An American traveller In Europe re-
marks the Italian mirth as languid, but
musical, the German as deliberate, the
French as spasmodic and uncertain, the
upper class English as guarded and not
always genuine. the lower class Eng
lish as explosive. the Scotch Of all
classes as hearty and the Irish as roll
licking.

THE CASE OF BUTLER COUNTY

The Butler County Press of Novem-
Der IL devotes nearly a column to
abusing The Independent because in
our issue of November 5 we said:
1.-THE Independent learns, from
what it regards as trustworthy
source, that Judge Sornborger's
defeat is in no small measure due
to a dirty deal in which Casper of
the David City Press, Challis of
the Ulysses Dispatch and Judge
Skiles of David City agreed to
trade off Sornborger for Evans.
If this is true, Casper ought to
take another of his perennial
pukes.
of all the choice epithets which Editor
Casper hurls at The Independent; but
suffice it to say that no fishwife of
Eillingsgate ever coined harsher ones.
And Judge Skiles, whose letter was
printed in The Independent last week,
writes another, abusive and offensive
tC the last degree; nay, more, he i'm
pliedly threatens violence If The In
dependent persists in believing that
its Informant told the truth.
Now, The Independent has no posi-
tive knowledge that these amiable
gentlemen actually did agree to trade
Off Sornborger for Evans. 1t said that
II regarded its informant as trust
worthy, but even then qualified the
complete statement by saying III this
Is true" etc. The excessive amount
OF spleen and venom from both Cas-
per and STILES Is at least q straw In
dicating that the shot hit the mark

protest. Calling The Independent "a

The Panama Canal company once
eaused a scandal in France that over
threw a ministry, ruined the son-in-
Law Of the president of France, brought
he political career of that president
practically to an end, ruined score OF
people, including De Lesseps, and left
trail that Is discernible to this day
In French politics and finance. That
history Is about to be duplicated in
this country. The $40,0OO,00O appro-
priated by congress to buy nothing
from the French was beginning. As
half Of that is to go to American
bOodlers connected with Wall street
and the American plutocratic press,
not very much has appeared In print
yet. But just wait until the final his
tory of it is written and the French
scandal will be a baby affair to it.

accepted as the diplomatic agent of a
republic which was recognized as a
nation before even a provisional"
government was organized, denied
that he had any financial interest In

GREED. RAPACITY. IMPERIALISM

Chancellor Andrews delivered the
address to the Delta Epsilon fraternity
convention in New York city last
week. Among other things he said:
Mark the cold greed and rapac-
.ty with .hich business is carried
on. Mercantile honor is not un-
kncw n, but 1t is relatively rarer
than heretofore. Promoting deals,
stock manipulations, market rig
cling. in intent and in effect every
whit as lad as highway robbery,
occur daily, evoking no protest
say, the bleating of the shorn
lonlbs.
There is no fear that our pop
ulation will be too small, but
much that 1t is losing virility |
hope President Roosevelt will take
early occasion to amend his plea
for swelling the census by urg-
ing quality of population as more
Of a consideration.
Il do not regard imperialism in
itself as sayagery, but the imper-
ialism which views inferior races
as our legitimate prey certainly is
