At 11:53 o'clock Thursday night, Santa

train that was waiting on the siding.
The freight had backed into the siding
in plenty of time to avoid a collision,

the negligence OF one of the crew. The
shock Of the collision was not great,
however, for none of the cars on either
train were derailed The engineer on No.

almost succeeded in stopping his train.
The damage to the train consisted OF
two pretty badly mashed up engines
and several broken platforms. The plat

Fargo refrigerator car We're damaged
considerably and the fronts or the en-
eines were mashed in. Otherwise the

of their injuries has not yet been learn

Chain Letters Again.

Relative to the chain-letter scheme
with headquarters in Philadelphia
for the alleged promotion of monster
anti cigaret petition, Josiah w.
Leeds sends word that he went to the
address on Chestnut street to which
all letters we're to be sent, but could
not find the parties; communicated
with the owner of the building, made
inquiries at the the central postoffice,
and finally placed the matter in the
hands of the postoffice inspector.
That official now reports that Email
such as you mention has been coming
to the Philadelphia postoffice for a
year, and it has been unclaimed.
There is no one at 1923 Chestnut
street to receive it, and it is all sent
to the dead letter Office" 1t may be
well to state for the information of
those who have not given the matter
serious thought, that lists of the
names and addresses of young people
are often sought and paid for by sell
fishly interested or unprincipled peo-
pie. Trashy papers will then be sent
to these addresses, filed with adver-
tisements of Objectionable schemes.
They are deadly enemies of the home.

Protection for Immigrant Women.

On December Mrs. Mary M. Fin
ley, press superintendent of the
Philadelphia w. g. T. u, sent Mrs.
Stevens a statement to the effect that
on November 80, in Philadelphia, a
raid was made on twenty-five dis
reputable houses and 100 women and
81 men were arrested. This came
about through a complaint of the
German consul that a syndicate of
vice exists and that young girls are
lured to this country under the
promise of work or marriage and are
distributed all over the country, some
of these being only thirteen years of
age and scarcely any over twenty
one. When the case came before the
court for trial the judge decided there
was no law to reach the matter, and
all were discharged. The letter also
represented that many of these girls
who are coming to this country to
seek honest work are met even before
they land. by those who "lure them
to their destruction" On behalf of
the National w. c. T. u, Mrs. Stevens
at once requested Mrs. Ellis, National
superintendent OF the department of
legislation, to see what could be done
to prevent this national diagrace.
All members of the Woman's Chris
tian Temperance Union, in fact all
good people everywhere, are greatly
indebted to President Roosevelt and
others of the "powers that be" for
their prompt action in providing for
