Freight And Passenger Trains Mees
Head On.

London, Ont. Dec. 3o.-A frightful
railroad collision occurred short dis
tance from the little station of Wan
stead, on the Sarnia branch of the
Grand Trunk railway. The trains in
collision were the Pacific express and a
freight. The express was running
nearly two hours late and was making
fast time. The freight was endeavor-
ing to make a siding to get clear of the
express. but failed by minute or two.
There was a dreadful crash, the loco
motives reared up and fell over in a
ditch, the baggage car of the express
telescoped the smoker and in an instant
the shrielxs and cries of the wounded
and dying filed the air. The loss OF
life is twenty-five, the injured are
many more, and many of these will
die.
Several of the dead were terribly
mntilated. Heads were cut off, legs
were wrenched from the bodies, and
the level stretch of snow became Grim
son with the blood of the victims.

REFERRED TO THE HAGUE.
Though There Are stln Unsettled Com
ditious

Washington, Dec 90. = President
Roosevelt will not be the arbitrator of
the Venezuelan controversy. The
whole vexatious subject will be referred
for adjudication to The Hague tribu-
nal. In accordance with the suggestion
made by President Roosevelt, through
Secretary Hay, President Castro was
reported to have agreed to submit the
differences to the arbitration of the
tribunal at The Hague. The European
powers not only consented to submit
the controversy to arbitration, but,
while they had expressed preference
for an arbitration to be conducted by
President Roosevelt, they had assented
to his suggestion that the matter be
referred to The Hague.
The presentation of the case met the
hearty approval of the cabinet. No fear
is expressed by. the administration that
the Monroe doctrine will be brought
into the controversy in any manner
that might result in an embarrassing
situation for the United States.

SHARE OF SCHOOL MONEY.

CONSIDERED IN CONVENTION.

Anadarllo, o. T., Dec 3O.-An i'm
portant convention of the school OH
Gals and teachers of Caddo. Comanche
and Kiowa counties was held at Ana
darl1o. These three counties, formed
from the recently opened Indian res
ervations, paid into the Oklahoma
school fund the sum of S265, 900 arising
from the leasing of school lands there
in. Certain technicalities of the law
prevented these counties, however,
from sharing in the distribution OF the
funl for The support of the common
schools and the convention was held
for the purpose of securing their por-
ton of the fund. Committees were APP
pointed and resolutions adopted look
to restore an equitable portion of the
money to these counties and recon-
mending legislation along that line
The convention was largely attended.
At the time of the distribution of the
common school fund the secretary of
the interior decided that on account of
their recent formation the new coun-
ties had not the legal right to share
therein. Governor Ferguson has an
nounced that he will recommend in his
message to the legislature that favor
able action be taken on the demands
of the new counties for this money.

weights and measures. At the present
time the mine inspector has no author

When old age comes on, catarrhal dis

Such cases cannot be treated locally;
nothing but an effective systemic remedy

my wife had been suffering from a

years.
Her case had bafled the skill of some
of the most noted physicians. One of her
worst troubles was chronic constipation of
several years standing.
She also was passing through that most
critical period in the life of woman
change of life. In June, 1895, I wrote to
you about her case. You advised a course
of Peruna and Manalin, which we at once
commenced, and have to say it completely
cured her. She firmly believes that she
would have been dead only for these
wonderful remedies.
About the same time wrote you about
my own case of catarrh, which had been of
Is years standing. At times was almost
past going. l commenced to use Peruna
according to your instructions and continued
its use for about a year. and it has COM
pletely cured me.
Your remedies do all that you claim
for them, and even more. Catarrh
cannot exist where Peruna IS taken
according 10 directions. Success to
you and your remedies.
