Chicago Train in Collision at Red-
house. N. I.-Cars Take Fire.
A coupling broke on a west-bound
freight train on the Erie Railroad at
Redhouse, \. Y, just as the train was
leaving the main track to take a siding
for the east bound New York and Chi
cago limited express to pass. The delay
occasioncd by the mishap wrecked the
limited several cars were burned and
at least six lives were lost. Baggage
man Hotchkiss was killed. His body
was recovered.
After the fire the bodies of two women
and child who arc said to have board
ed the train at Youngstown, Ohio, bound
for Olean, n. Y, were taken from the
ruins, burned so badly rs to make it inn
possible to identify them. Later two
other bodies were recovered, but neither
was identified. Six more or less serious
ly injured passengers and members of the
crew were taken to the hospital.
Almost Immediately after the freight
train broke in two the passenger train
came along at the rate of fifty miles an
hour. The passenger engine, Il combi-
nation baggage and passenger car, a day
coach and two sleepers left the track,
running nearly 100 feet beside the rails,
crashing into small school house, which
was completely demolished. The wreck
caught fire Immediately and all of the
cars which left the track were quickly
consumed.

She looked up. Her brother and the

not heard them. She rose from her wear

moved by a divine impulse of pity for the
pale watcher below.

He sprang up and looked at her, two
stars dawning in the dusk eyes, a glory
shining on his darkly handsome face.
'Thank God" he cried, Il am not a

And strangely as he had come he was
gone.

SHEEPMEN MAJ FIGHT.
Clash with Cattle Raisers Is Imminent
in Wyoming.

In WyOmIn
A special from Cheyenne, Wyo., says:
The sheepmen of the Sweetwater coun-
try have declared open war upon the cat
tlemcn and a clash is imminent unless
steps are at once taken to get the war
ring factions together on the proposition
of satisfactory division of ranges of
that section. Information from Landor
saws the militia there may be called out
to prevent a general fight and much
bloodshed.
Sheriff Charles Slough of London has
gone to the range country to investigate
the situation and if he finds the condition
of affairs as alarming as has been report
ed he will Immediately make formal
request of the Governor for at least one
company of the State militia to patrol
the ranges.
Recently the sheepmen of the Sweet
water country have received copies of a
circular letter notifying them that the
sheep would not be permitted to Craze
within certain boundaries.
At 4 meeting of the executive commit

REPORT CANCERS CAUSE FOUND
New York Doctors Say Due to Chemi.
cal Changes in the Blood.

cal >AaHESS III TIC DACOus
In a few days the results of the in
vestigations carried on for many months
by a number of welI-known bacteriolo-
gists and Psychologists regarding the
cause of cancer and cAncerous growths
probably will be fully revealed in pa
per written by DR.. Bertram II. Buxton,
the New York bactertologist. This pa
per will contain, according to a trust
worthy source, the message that the
cause of cancer has at last been discov-
cred and that this truth has been PROV
ed to the satisfaction of number of men
who stand high in the science of medi-
cine.
Briefly, the Investigations are said to
have revealed the following facts: That
cancer is due to the chemical changes in
the blood; that every part or tissue Of a
cancer has the power of producing fer
mentation; that in their powers of caus-
ing fermentation the generous tissues
are akin to the tissues OF the stomach !;
that by proving this theory the theory
that cancer was due to parasite was
disproved.

Mrs. Lucy Weber, 70, OF Brimfleld,
died Saturday evening at the home of her
dauRhter-in-law, Mary Weber, Of IA
Seventh street in Springfield, where she
went to spend Thanksgiving, and sus-
tanned shock on the following Monday.
She had since been rapidly declining. Mrs.
Webber had lived In Brimfield for the past
80 years, and was we'll known there as a
kind, motherly woman, who did many
charitable deeds In that town. She was
born in Union, and was married there to
Edwin B. Webber, after which they lived
in Wales few years, and then moved to
Brimfield, where Mr.. Weber died In
March, 1895. She leaves a daughter,
Mrs. W. W. Earl of Springfield, and one
son Charles A. Weber of Boston, and
seven grandchildren. She also leaves a

adon about one O'Clock Sunday morning,
from heart failure. She had been In poor
health for a number of years, but only
within the past two months was her con-
dition considered critical. Mrs. Amadon
was a native of Stafford. her maiden
name being Mary Rogers. She lived In
town all her life. Early In life she be-
came a member of the Methodist Episco-
pal church, and she was always promi-
nent in all meetings, social or religious,
A true, loyal friend of every pastor and
his family, she probably often worked
beyond her strength to aid the cause of
the church she loved. Mrs. Amadon was
most estimable woman, and she had a
host of friends who mourn sincerely her
loss. She was kind, helpful neighbor,
with pleasant smile and word for every
one. If she had one trait stronger than
another, we think it was her extreme
charitableness. Hers was indeed the
charity which "thinketh no evil, hopeth
all things, endureth all things" Had
she lived until tot day she would have
been sc years old. Besides her faithful
husband, =. B. Amadon, who was always
most thoughtful and considerable of her,
she leaves one brother, Warren Rog-
ers, three sisters, Mrs. Erwin Preble,
Mrs. Alfred Preble and Mrs. Leonard
Washburne, all of Stafford. The funeral
services were held at the late home of the
deceased on Tuesday afternoon at two
O'Clock. Rev. Frank w. Gray of the M.
E. church officiated. The passage of
scripture selected by Mr.. Gray for his
theme was especially applicable to the
good woman who has left US. BLESSED

row and loneliness.

TRADE REPORT.

R. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review of
Trade last week says:
Just as the railway congestion began
to give away before the vigorous eff
forts of the triffic managers, the situa-
ton became further complicated by
the worst snow storm of the season
and the movements of merchandise
was again interrupted. Latest figures
of gross earnings show the usual gains.

per cent last year, when unusual delay
was caused by severe storms, and 1901
by 17.6 per cent. Increased cost of
operations, however, necessitated fur
Their advances in rates.
Jobbers urge quicker shipments on
old orders, while travellers send in
many contracts. Manufacturers of pa
per, straw goods and clothing report
conditions fully as satisfactory as n
year ago, aside from some Interrupt
ton by labor controversies. Conditions
in the silk industry are shown by no
imports of raw material, and one large
manufacturer has recently rejected or
ders sufficient to occupy his plant for
two years. Bids are invited for eX.
tensive building operations, giving
strength and activity to materials and
supplies.
Quieter conditions prevail in the
markets for dry goods. although mills
are busy and prices well maintained
Western jobbers are placing liberal
case orders for fall styles with New
England producers of boots and shoes
but wholesale trade at the east is be
tween seasons.

hood that this must be his first year
Of service
The woman who was out late and
had come from the brightly lighted ave
nue. into the dark side street was glad
of his company.
Don't you ever feel afraid when go
ing about so late at night" she asked,
on learning that the small messenger
worked habitually until midnight
"Oh. no." he answered somewhat
loftily. There amt nothin' for a fell
low to be afraid Of If there's a fuss
or anything, all you've got to do is to
cross over to the other side of the street
and keep on about your business"
IL tell you, though" he confided later,
when the two had walked two long
blocks in company and his reserve had
thawed. Il tell you when l do feel
bothered, and that's after I've got home
of a night and am going up the inside
stairs.
You see, we live on the top floor. It's

there on the landing that's going to

And was it anything?" the woman
asked, interested.
II can't tell" he said. 1T was too
dark to see and l went on fast. 1t didn't
get me, If it was there. But I'm on the
lookout for 1t ever since.

nor to move nor nothin'." he added
1--WE can get the top rooms for cheaper
rent and have to stand it. But l mind

of the night more than anything else

The woman changed the conversation
to brighter themes. But when the way
ended that they could travel in com
pany and the boy had said goodnight
and scudded off on his affairs, hel
thoughts reverted to childish day:
when she, too, was afraid of the dark
and believed that it harbored bugaboos
and specters ready to spring out on un
offending children.-New York Sun.
