CAR RAMMED TRUCK.
Half Dozen People Injured at New
York, Three Seriously.

New York Jan aS.-Three trolley cars
of the WeStchester Avenue Line of the
Union Railway in the Bronx. and truck
laden with heavy steel girders. figured in
a srlashup. tonight. in which half a doz-
en- persons were injured, three so serious
ly that they were removed to Lebanon
hospital. The accident happened on Il
steep hill. Owing to the darkness the me-
tOrman did not see the truck laden with
several heavy girders. until he was close
upon it and was powerless tC stop MS
car. TIE momentum was so great that
the car was torn aSunder. Half dozen
passengers. three of them women, W-rc
in the rear of the car but escaped Sc
rious injury.
The motorman was thrown ahead and
his left leg was fractured. The car was
left in darkness and before the pasSei!-
gers could alEht another car crashed
into it from the rear. The motorman d1d
not see the wreck until he was almost
upon it and so steep was the grade thai
he was unable to stop. He was crushed
between the two cars and had Il hip dislo-
Gated.
Great confusion followed after the first
car took fire, but the flames were soon
eHtinglIished. In the midst of this thiiu
car came rushing down the hill and drov"

SHEETS OF FLAME
Sweep Through Lumber Yard
At North Tonawanda, NY.
Assistance from Neishborins Places
Help subdue the Fire.

North Tonawanda, N Y. Jan. 2S.-
Half a square mile OF glowing einoerS
WAS all that remained of large lum-
her ward in North Tonawanda, early
TODAY. after a most serious fire. All OF
tho north end Of Tonawanda island
wa. swep. by the flames. Between
u 600. 900 and 100000 feet of ium-
her. valued at SYST. 900. were destroyed.
The heaviest loser is the firm of White,
Rider & Frost, whose loss is $225,0O0.
Other firms who suffered are W. w.
Tyler & Co. and the Lee Lumber co.
The fire started in large frame build
ing in the White. Rider & Frost co S.
yard about midnight. The building
was used as a storehouse for high
grade lumber and the interior was
mass of flames when the first OF the
fremen arrived.
Appeals for assistance were sent at
once to Buffalo. Niagara Falls and
Lockport. Hundreds of thousands OF
feet OF lumber were burned before help
from these places arrived.
The north end of the island was oc-
cupied by the White. Rider &, Frost
Co. Adjoining their yards were those
of Silver, Torne & Co. A narrow alley
way and spur Of railroads separated
the two places. II was here that the
combined fire forces of the four cities
made their stand. The north end Of
the island was abandoned to the
flames. All the men available were
set to work removing piles of lumber
TO make a clear passage way across
the island from east to west. The
work was completed by o'clock. just
as the hurricane of flame reached the
cleared space. Huge piles Of blazing
lumber fell at intervals sending show
ers of sparks and cinders that spread
among the highly inflammable soft
lumber. There was no wind and by 3
o'clock the danger Of further spread
of the flames was past.
Insurance agents estimated the loss
at s o'clock this morning at 100000.
After that hour several hundred thou
sand feet of highgrade lumber burned.
A quarter of a million dollars is prob
ably a conservative estimate of the
loss.
The fire is believed to have been Of
incendiary origin. The watchman who
gave the first alarm found oil soaked
burning waste in three different places.
Early in the evening small blaze Of
the same material was extinguishcd
by the watchmen without calling out
the department.
j. a. Buck. a lumber merchant from
l:rliing. Pa. who was in the offices of
%Ns throne Co. soon after the fire
uruke out, said:
1T appears to be the belief among
the lumbermen, early today, that the
fire was of incendiary origin. While
was in the Office watchman brought
in a large amount Of oil-soaked waste
which he had found under lumber
piles. There was considerable talk
about disgruntled employees"
Nearly 80 vessels were tied to the
docks when the flames broke out. but
all OF them were saved.

THE GYPSY MOTH

Boston. Jan. as.-An account of the
ravages of the gypsy moth in many locan-

that while the state had paid Sll.W0,J Jt
up to 1901 the failure to carry on the
work during the past two years mad al

that the money had been practically
thrown away.

of Medford. instead of asking for direct
appropriation by the state, submitted /;

would be an equitable apportionment o1

Best Horse for the Farmer.

The American farmer OF today owes
much to that noble animal which has
been mans friend for centuries. He il;
Tot only a necessity on the farm but
adds much to the pleasure and profit
of the farmer.
Much has been said Of the passing
Of this patient tolcr. but he still exists
and doubtless always will have 4
place in agricultural operations AMI
the commerce of the world. He has
held his own against the various kinds
OF motive power and today prices for
horses are far better than they were
ten years ago.
The morse. besides being an import
ant factor in agriculture, deserves
consideration for the part he plays in
the commercial world. Our great
cities with their enormous commercial
enterprises demand thousands Of
horses every year. Foreign countries
call on American markets for hum
drcdS of horses each year. All Of
these must be produced by the farmer
and with few exceptions by those who
do not nay especial attention to the
production OF horses. Only few
types are produced on farms which
are exclusively horse farms. This be-
ing true, the question naturally arises
as TO what type of horse is best suited
to the farm, or. in other words. what
iS the best horse for the farmer.
II We were asked 20 describe the best
horse for farm work the task would
not be 50 difficult. But no consider
alton of this suhjsct should ignore the
question of profit to be derived from
horses on the farm. In fact, farmers
will find about as easy money in few
first class horses to put on the market
