Mr.. and Mrs. D. j. Applegate returned
from their trip east last week. They re.
port an enjoyable trip in spite of incle.
ment weather. Although this was a
pleasure trip it was not its only purpose.
They brought back their stock of spring
and summer goods which is a very ex-
tensive one. To accommodate their
large assortment of goods it was necessa
ry to enlarge the capacity OF their store.
In order to do this they have extended
the shelves to the rear end of the building
Other improvements will be made and
the store will present quite a metropolis
tan appearance. Their line of summer
iress goods is the largest and finest in
the town, and cannot be excelled in the
county. The millinery department has
received special attention, and will be a
delight to the ladies'.

Consolidation of Newspapers Is Meant to

Peace and Prosperity are

The consolidation of the Salem Express
and Leader was completed Monday night.
The Leader was purchased some days ago
by Orrin A. Foster. editor of the Express,
for 81 500, and Monday night the Sa-
lam Express company sold its plant to
him for $500, making an aggregate cost
of the consolidation $500. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Foster has about organ
lied n company of five or six of the Sa-
lem business men to back him in the un-
dertaking. But one paper will be issued
hereafter. 1t will be non-partisan, con-
filming itself to the field of newspaper,
which has for its aim the upbuilding of
Salem.
In this connection it is stated that the
fractional war that has been conducted in
that town several years is Mt an end.
both sides having agreed to stack their
arms on the field of battle and let them
rot there. a concerted effort is to be
made to make Salem what it ought to
be, and what it would have been if
there had not been so much internal
strife, a condition that the Telegram al
ways vigorously opposed. The determi-
nation of the people to come together
and work FOR the promotion of the in
terests of the town is commendable. and
it is pleasure to all to note the change
in sentiment and the resolve to dwell
together in brotherly love.

PASSENGER TRAIN WRECK
At GYPSY ON MONONGAH
Enuine. Water Tank, Mail Car and
Baggage Car Leave the Track
Turn Over Against Bank Two
Hundred Yards North of the
Station at Gypsy.

The passenger train, No. 2, due here
lat $3.50 o'clock Tuesday morning from
Fairmont, was wrecked on a sharp curve
: 200 or 800 yards north of the stationtat
Gypsy at S:l5 o'clock that morning. The
engine and water tank were partially
derailed and the baggage car and mail
car left the track and landed over against
"a bank along the track.
The train was wrecked by the spread
ing of the rails. The speed was not
rapid ut that point, the train having
slowed up to stop Mt Gypsy, or the dam
age might have been quite serious and
many lives might have been lost As it
was, only one man was injured, John
Brown, the baggage master. 1t is posi-
BILE he would have escaped injury if he
had remained in the car, but he jumped,
and had an arm dislocated. It is thought
he sustained internal injuries also. the
extent of which has not yet been deter
mined.
The engineer, fireman and mail clerk
stood at their posts and thus escaped
injury, although it is somewhat miracu-
lous that they were not hurt to some
extent. The fact that the car and en-
CINE did not turn over probably saved
them.
The track remained blocked the great
er part of the day, not being cleared I'M
til 4 o'clock. and transfers of passengers,
mail and baggage were made. The
wrecker's crew from Grafton arrived
about 1890 and went to work on the
wreck, but their efforts did not result in
getting the cars and engine and tender
back until the hour already mentioned.
The<train came to sudden stop when
the wreck occurred and the passengers
received severe jar and shock and were
greatly frightened. The coaches were
well filed. and a more disastrous. wreck
might have resulted in crippling and
killing quite number of people.
The property loss is slight rs the cars
were not much damaged The greatest
loss was the delay in traffic. freight and
passenger, as the road was blocked prac-
ticaily all day.
This is the train which runs through
from Fairmont to Redwood
