DAVIS IS DEAD.
Man Held Responsible for Grace
land Wreck Left a Statement.

Plainfeld n j., Jan. 2e--Engineer
lanes II. Davis. Of the Reading train
which ran into the Easton express near
Graceland Tuesday night. died IN the
hospital today.
The other victims of the wreck who
are in the hospital are reported to be
doing as Wen as could be expected. but
it is feared several may not recover.
N,xy York Jan 29.-Chief of Police
kelley of PIainfeid. admits that he OBJ
tanned an important statement from
Davis. the engineer, who sustained farai
injuries in the wreck at Graceland
Tuesday night and also from Fireman
Mccarthy
Davis was told he could not live and
was advised to do all he could 10 eX-
plain the circumstance of the accident
and throw any light he could upon the
cause. IT is understood that he defend
Ed himself and placed the blame prl-
marily upOn others connected with the
New Jersey Central road, but not a
hint az TO the nature of the statements
could be learned from the chief directly
Chief Kelley saws both statements,
which are regularly sworn to, Will be
made public at the proper time by the
proper officials
General Manager Besler. of the Cen
trail denied today that train order
sent to Crawford for the express was
received too late to be delivered TO the
express train Mr.. Besler said that the
signal was set as usual to notify the
engineer there was an order for his
train at that station.
THE red light a Crawford was two
miles from the scene OF the wreck. yer
it was disregarded, as well as the red
lantern swung by crossing tender
farther on and all the red lights and
warning signals, seven of them. It is
strange what the engineer of the eX-
press was doing along there.
John Finke. the station agent at Gram
ford. said that a minute before the ac-
cident he received orders to hold the
express at his station He could hear
the train coming. and without waiting
to answer that he understood instruc-
tons he grabbed his lantern and rushed
out on to the platform. AS he emerged
the train flashed by. Davis was leaning
far out Of the cab window. looking
straight ahead and apparently attending
to his duty 1t was too late when F'inke
reached the platform, and he rushed
back to his key to warn Westfield. but
before he could do so the train had COW
cred the two miles and was past West
field and plunging into the other trair
quarters of a mile beyond. Finkt
says he saw the clock when he took tht
order to hold the express and also wher
he raised Westfeld and that the time
lapsed was only a few seconds over two
minutes. showing that the express was
really travelling at a much higher speed
than 50 miles an hour.

A School Boy Digs Down to Find Food
to Build Him Right.

A good. ightforward letter was re-
Gently sent by bright clever youth
which shows his ability to 20 to the
bottom of a trouble and rectify it.
He says: I attended high school for
three years but made little progress. I
did not enjoy good health; my food was
not properly digested this caused head
ache and hence I could not study. I
tried taking exercise in the football field
but was unable to stand it as it alwa Us
increased my headache.
During the summer holidays 1 began
eating Grape Nuts and the benefit was
immediate, the headache stopped, my
food digested properly 50 that 1 had no
more stomach trouble my general
health improved, my weight increased
and my brain was clear and bright
"The result was that this summer
procured junior leaving and junior
naturalization standing. 1 also took
my place on the football team as half
back and played IN all the games Of
1901.
This wonderful increase in mental
and physical health I attribute to no
other cause than the nouEishment got
from Grape Nuts. I recommend them
to everybody who desires health. I am
only a boy of II years, but my weight
is las pounds and this weight was pro-
cured solely by the use of Grape Nuts. -
Name given by Postum Cereal Co. Bat
tie Creek Mich.
There is a reason why Grape Nuts
should correct a delicate. physical, or a
sluggish mental condition. The food is
highly nutritious and IS predigested so
that it helps the digestive organs to as
simulate other food. 1t is also rich in
the phosphates that go directly to make
up the delicate gray matter of bra in
ard nerve centers.

HORsEs EAT MOLASSES.
It Is Fed to Them Instead of Oats in
Brooklyn.

New York, Jan. 29-Between 1000
and 5000 horses in Brooklyn are being
fed on molasses because it is cheaper
and better than oats. This statement
is made by a veterinary surgeon, who
adds that horses in harness from L to
IA hours a day do not take time to
masticate and properly prepare dry
oats and other fodder. The result IS
that the animals receive little nutritive
value from their food.
Molasses, if properly diluted and
mixed with hay bran and meal IN
proper proportion, is in a digestible
condition and ready for assimilation
the moment it enters the mouth It's
nutritive value is. therefore, quite ap-
parent 1t is not only better and a
more nutritive food tnan oats, but it is
much cheaper in the end.

Caution !

This is not a gentle word but when
you think how liable you are not to pur-
chase the only remedy universally
known and remedy that has had the
largest sale Of any medicine in the
world since 1868 for the cure and treat
mcnt Of Consumption and Throat and
Lung troubles without losing its great
popularity all these years, you will be
thankful we called your attention to
Boschcc's German Syrup. There are 50
many ordinary cough remedies made by
druggists and others that are cheap and
good for light colds perhaps, but fol
severe Coughs, Bronchitis, Group and
especially for Consumption, where there
is difficult expectoration and coughing
| during the nights and mornings, there
is nothing like German Syrup. The 2;
