= = AN APPLE-TRlnnED EVENING GOWN = :.

A wan-known Washington girl, whose
engagement has just been announced,
introduced a new little fashion fad at
a recent dinner dance. 1t was a new
design IN gowns.
To say that her exquisite sheer white
gown was trimmed with apples would
seem almost too ridiculous to be true,
but nevertheless her gown was de-
signated on the dressmaker's bin as
''one apple-trimmed evening gown

FOUND A VERDICT
Coroner's Jury Places Blame on the
Engineer of Detroit Train for
the Elmdale Wreck.

The coroner's jury in the recent
Elmdale wreck case put the blame
upon the engineer of the Detroit
train, the investigation finding that
the switch was turned against his
train. The next thing is to see who
is punished for the death of the five
persons who lost their lives through
the engineers negligence. The COM
pany will have TO pay for the loss so
far as money can compensate, and
they will get out of it as cheaply as
possible, at that; but they can never
pay 10 the wives and families of the
dead men thousandth part of what
they were worth TO them in value
outside of a money consideration.
And in all probability the engineer,
if he was responsible for the accide mt,
or slaughter, as held to be by the
jury, will suffer, if at ALL for the
fault of someone else higher in the
management of the road.
The man who assumes the RESPONSE
bility of handling the throttle on the
locomotive that carries its precious
load of human lives must be ever on
the alert to avert accidents, and if
the engineer grew careless and the
awful fatality was result of his
carelessness, he should pay the full
est penalty for the precious lives
thus sacrificed
The lives of many of our own cIti-
zens were placed in jeopardy by this
accident, and those who find it nee
essary to travel should b. protected
as much as possible against such
fatalities as this.

tors knew until short time before
the church hour just what pulpit they
were 10 occupy and people who de
sired 10 listen TO any particular pas
tor for the morning sermon had tC
take their chances and drop In where
they would. The various churches
were all well attended and the cur
rent report from all OF the churches
seemed TO be that each of the pastors
outdid themselves in the efforts for
the occasion.
Rev, II. N. Spear was assigned by
the committee TO the Methodist
church and took for his text the 18th
verse of the 3rd chapter of End Tim.
othy: "And from a child thou hast
known the holy scriptures which arc
able to make thee wise unto salvation
through faith which is in Christ
Jesus" He dwelt on the Importance
of teaching the children the bible in
their youth and said that teachings
of that nature would round out the
mind in a noble manner and result in
shaping the destiny of the child to-
ward the higher life when the matur-
ity should come to him. The bible is
the book of the world and when nc
other book could satisfy there was
satisfaction 10 be found in the Book
of Books. He told his audience many
interesting things concerning the
bible and said that though there were
many and varied attacks being made
upon the bible 1t was gaining in pop.
ularity every day. 1t Is the divine
power from the creator that lends its
lustre to the work that makes it
more and more popular as the ages
roll along and that same power would
lead the world to knowledge of Him
in the days that yet may come.
Some folks would eliminate the SUI
pernatural from the book but it is
that that adds its reverence to the
same. Exodus, Deuteronomy and
Leviticus are the ground work of old
English law and the bible has always
been prominent factor III all that
tends to higher and nobler life.
Teach it to the children and the
walks OF life will be brighter for
them and the S lnday school is the
place to begin.
At the Church of Christ those in
attendance listened to an able SER

25 of the relatives and friends OF the

maid on the occasion while Mr.. Law
renee Goodale of this city filed the

Mass Meeting Mt Opera House sunday
Night-Crowded House. Many
Unable To Gain Admission.

1t has been said by good many
people in this city since the Metho-
dist society began the erection of
their new house of worship that they
were building too large a building
and that il was altogether too large
for city of this size, but if the peo-
pie who have made this assertion
had arrived at the opera house last
Sunday evening at few minutes
past seven o'clock they would have
at once seen the foolishness of their
claims. The meeting had been called
for seven o'clock but every seat in
the house was filled long before that
hour and a large number stood
throughout the entire meeting, while
many who were unable TO secure a
seat returned 10 their homes.
The days rally began at the hour
of the morning service when all of
the various pastors of the city ex-
changed pulpits. Noue of the pas

SOMETHING NEW
The Clarke Marble Works has Added
"A Wonderful Machine TO their
Eauipment.

While making the rounds of the city
recently our reporter dropped into
the Clarke Marble Works and was
shown new machine which has been
placed into commission in the work
room of the establishment.
The deyice is known as a pneumatic
tool and is operated by means of an
electric motor and compressed air.
Mr.. Clark showed the practical work
ing of the machine which cut away
the hardest granite at a speed which
ought TO satisfy the most busy man in
the ceuntry. He also stated that this
was the only tool OF the kind in this
section of the state and the placing
of such machine in his marble works
is very good evidence of the amount
of work that is coming into his shop.
