Even in these unconventional days it was
hardly likely she would write to him.
They were at once too near and too far
in their relationship TO one another Even
if the girl had been inclined to write, had
the conditions of her life been what they
were when Paul left her, she was effectual-

and her own and her mothers banish

So Dashwood worked, aud witnessed the
growth of his love in the silence and iSola

One day clerk came into the office
with a eablegram Paul was busy writing
in his shirt sleeves, and finished what he
was about before opening the cover. Cable
grams were by no means intrequent oc-

the letter upon which he was engaged
Paul stretched out his hand for the mes

meeting held Just after the adjourn
ment of the convention.
In thanking the committee for the
honor he told the members that while
he would be glad TO have the benefit
of their advice and counsel he intend
to be chairman in fact and would ac-
cept no dictation from any one, high

measure of confidence and support
that had been given to the last chair
man.
In conclusion he sought the advice
of both old and new members.
Mr.. Cortelyou made no formal state

A CRASH AT A SWITCH.
Fifteen People Injured In a Collision

Of Trolley Cars at Lima, o.
Lima, o., June PA Lima City
Railway Co.'S street car and Western
Ohio special or limited car coliided
on a switch just west of Woodlawn
cemetery late Thursday afternoon.
Both cars were fairly well filled and
many sustained serious injuries. A
small child was so badly crushed that
she cannot recover.
The accident occurred at a switch
about one mile west of this city, and
all the injured were persons who
were returning from or on their way to
a picnic being held at McBeth park
by the local council of the knights Of
Columbus. The inbound car was an
open City car and the other was an
outbound Western Ohio traction line
car. The City car was Just pulling into
the switch and the motorman of the
Western Ohio car failed to reduce
the speed of his car enough to let the
| City car into the switch. The latter
car side-swiped the City car and
jammed the first six or seven seats
together, which resulted I'm the break
ing OF the passengers legs. A side
rail on the City car was rammed
through the front end of the Western
Ohio car. infiicting serious injury to
Mr.. Cliff Seldom. of Lima. who was al
most scalped. Fourteen others were
injured.
Four ambulances and dozen
physicians were hurried to the scene
and within half an hour all Of the in
iured we're being cared for. General
Manager Carpenter, of the Western
Ohio, declines to make any statement
as to the cause OF the wreck. but per-
sons who were aboard the cars state
that Motorman Cunt, of the Western
Ohio car, was talking to man in the
vestibule of his car and did not watch
the dangerous approach toward the
open car. Both cars were badly
wrecked, but the crews of both cars
escaped without injury.
