Lost Leg to Save Woman

A dispatch from New York says: Caught
In the labyrinth of tracks and switches in
the New York Central yards Wednesday
John Haverley had his leg cut off while
trying to save the life of Catherine OKeefe,
a car cleaner.
The woman, rescued once from death,
would have been run down by a second
train and killed while she was lying stun
ned on the track but for the promptness of
William Brighton. an engine driver who
deserted his own locomotive and snatched
her from danger just before an express
train dashed over the spot where she had
fallen.
Edward Briggs, engine driver of the train
which inflicted the injuries was overcome
with grief and did what he could to help
the victims.
Haverley was so weak by the time he ar
rived at the hospital that the surgeons de-
SPARED of mis- recovery. The woman suf-
fered from shock, as well as from the frac-
ture of four ribs, but she will live.

popular than are the English, and there
IL strong tie between Italy and the
United States in the number Of Italians
who have adopted the latter country as
their home. Thousands OF dollars are
sent from America to help out the family
budgets of those left behind, and many q
steamship passage Is paid for in New
York to be used from the old country to
the new. The young working man of
Italy Is always ambitious to visit that
country where his brother or his cousin
has done so well, and unless tied down
by unusual circumstances he will in time
find the means for making the long voy
age. As a rule, he does not leave Italy
with the idea of never coming back. but
beyond his greatest endeavor should he
remain at home
Many of them do come back to Italy,
full of an independence born of living in
| a country of political freedom and per-
sonal independence, literally supplied
with money and well satisfied that the
United States Is the best place in the
| world in which to accumulate a compe-
| tence. Most of them come back, however.
only for q visit Even those who come
with the intention Of staying soon again
get restless for the new world and event.
ually return to New York
AS compared with the native born
American they do not appeal to the civic
reformer as the most desirable additions
to the population. but speaking generally
| OF the people of northern Italy, they are.
as the Englishman would say, mot a bad
lot" and If the United States is to con-
time its policy of afrording refuge for
people of all sorts and conditions worse
things could happen than an increase in
] the number received from this part of
the world as additions to the population.
With the exception of the tide of tour
list travel which follows certain beaten
paths through Italy, few Americans visit
this country. The Germans have a large
| trade here and a great many spend much
| OF the winter in the large commercial
cities OF the Italian peninsula. Persist
ent trade missionaries, keen traders
close hgurers and good linguists, the Ger
mans hold their hard-won foreign COM
merce with an intelligent tenacity due to
| long experience, trading with all the peo-
pies or the world. When they go into a
foreign country to sell their goods they
| take their places alongside of the native
and compete with him at his own game
This Is the secret of their success The
American trade here. as elsewhere is in
raw materials and novelties, which, use
iul as the latter may be, the people have
In the past long done without and II
necessary can do without again. Here, as
elsewhere, the American foreign trade
seems to follow a line of least resistance
and does not possess that element of per-
manency characteriZing the trade of other
nations j. d. WHELPLEY,

Wheat Injured BY Rust.

Rust has cut down the wheat Yield
in the Greeley district from fifty to
seventy-five per cent. Hundreds OF
acres which promised three weeks ago
a harvest of from fifty to sixty bushels
an acre will now yield from fifteen to
twenty. The winter wheat, sown last
fall, and the early spring wheat es-
capped the damage from rust because OF
being ripe. or nearly so. but there wore
comparatively few fields of such. The
greater part of the wheat was partially
filed in the head when touched by the
rust, which made the first appearance
in the stalk, sapping the nourishment
and causing the heads to shrivel and
dry up. Rust is attributed to damp
nights. followed by hot days.
Barley and oats have been free from
rust and will make phenomenal crops.
The average yield of barley and oats is
from forty to fifty bushels an acre.
This year the average is nearer sixty
to seventy.
