ROOSEVELT EXPORTS
ALL TO GIVE THANKS.
Proclamation Issued Naming Nov.
20 as Thanksgiving Day.

20 as THANKSGIVING nay
Washington, Oct. 31.-The President
to-day issued his annual Thanksgiving
proclamation in the following terms:
by the President of the United
States of American.
"A Proclamation.
THE season is at hand when, accord
ing to the custom of our people, it
falls upon the President to appoint a
day of praise and thanksgiving to God.
During the last year the Lord has
dealt bountifully with us, giving us
peace at home and abroad and the
chance for our citizens TO work for
their welfare unhindered by war, FAM
inc or plague. 1t behooves us not on
ly to rejoice greatly because of what
has been given us, but to accept it with
a solemn sense of responsibility, real
izing that under Heaven it rests with
us ourselves to show that we are
worthy to use Alright what has thus
been entrusted to our care.
I'm no other place and at no other
time has the experiment of govern
ment of the people. by the people, for
the people. been tried on so vast a
scale as here in our own country in
the opening years of the twentieth
century. Failure would not only be
a dreadful thing for us, but dreadful
thing for all mankind, because it would
mean loss of hope for all who believe
in the power and the righteousness of
liberty. Therefore, in thanking God
for the mercies extended to us in the
past, we beseech Him that He may
not withhold them in the future, and
that our hearts may be reused to war
steadfastly for good and against all
the forces of evil, public and private.
We pray for strength, and light so
that in the coming years we may with
cleanliness, fearlessness and wisdom
do our allotted work on the earth in
such manner as to show that we are
not altogether unworthy of the bless
ings we have received.
Nov, therefore l. Theodore Roose-
welt, President of the United States,
do hereby designate as a day of gen.
eral thanksgiving Thursday, the TWEEN
ty-sixth of the coming November, and
do recommend that throughout the
land the people cease from their won't
ed occupations and In their several
homes and places Of worship, render
thanks unto Almighty God for his
manifold nercies.
IN witness whereof, have here
unto set my hand and caused the seal
of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city Of Washington this
s1st day of October, In the year of
our Lord, one thousand nine hundred
and three and Of the independence Of
the United States the one hundred
and twenty eighth. (Signed)
Theodore Roosevelt.

when the Crash Came.
From the twelve coaches were COM
ing the joyous cries of a thousand
rooters for Purdue, clad in gala dress,
with colors streaming, while in the
front coach sat twenty Muscular fell
lows. trained to the hour, on whom the
hopes of a brilliant victory on the grid
iron were confidently placed.
Around the curve at Eighteenth street
cut, Engineer Schumacher found, di-
rectly in front of him. the freight en-
CINE and coal cars moving slowly from
a switch leading to a graved pit. He
reversed his engine and jumped.
The crash hurled the passenger en-
CINE and three front coaches against
the steel freight cars, loaded with coal,
that ploughed their way through and
buried under a pile of wreckage weigh
ing many tons, fully sixty human be-
ings.
The first car, in which were the play
ers. was completely demolished, the
roof being torn away and landing
across a car of coal, while the body
of the car was reduced to kindling
wood against the side Of the steel
freight cars.
The second coach, containing the
band of musicians, was partly tele-
scoped while the third coach was over
turned and hurled down a fifteen-foot
embankment.
The other coaches did not leave the
track.
Began Heroic Work.
President stone of the university,
with his family, was in the fifth coach,
and was not injured.
Immediately after the shock the pas
sengers, men and women. began the
work or tearing away the wreakage

THINKS THE WAR GAME
WILL SUCCEED CAMPS.
Mai. Coney Talks of His obserVa-
tions at Fort Riley.

Atlanta, Oct. 31.-Maj. Walter e.
Coney of the First Infantry is here on
his way home from the war maneuvers
at Fort Riley, Kan, and Will reach
Savannah Monday morning.
Mai. Coney talks interestingly of the
Fort Riley war game, in which he says
the volunteers did splendid work and
were highly commended by visiting mi
litiamen and foreign attaches. Maj.
Coney talks interestingly of the Geor-
gians now in the United States army
who took part in the maneuvers.
Most important of all however, MAJ.
Coney says the success of these man
euvers probably means an end of state
encampments for the volunteer troops.
1t was the general opinion among mil
itary men that in future the volun-
teers would be called on to take part
in these war exercises, instead of go
ing into state encampments. In the
event this change is made, he thinks
the Georgia troops will be ordered to
West Point, KY, as the most avail
able point in this section for such ex-
ercises.

Between Government Receipts and
Expenditures.

Washington, oct. s1.-A significant
fact is noted in the treasury statement
issued at the close of business to-day.
1t is that the receipts and expenditures
of the government for the first four
months Of the present fiscal year are
practically the same. the surplus be-
ing so small as to be only a fraction
Of the aggregate. One year ago the
surplus for the same month Of the
fiscal year was s13,5Oo00O
The total receipts for fiscal year have
been about $3.50, S97,2s5, and the ex-
penditures s1S9 81, 6s7, leaving sur
plus Of about $685., 900.
An analysis Of the statement shows
that the practical wiping out Of the
surplus is due not only to a decrease
Of the receipts. but also to an increase
