"You news reporters have mad little
to write about lately in the ways Of
wrecks ON the l. O., haven't your" a
we'll known local railroad official
asked this morning.
You boys run about and dive into
the recesses Of the trainmasters' books
and the dispatcher's train sheets to
scent items, and since there have been
so few wrecks on this division, you
have about given up your habit of
asking 'any wrecks today You
fellows are always ready to write up
anything that goes wrong, on the road,
but rarely ever do we see where you
say the road is running smoothly and
especially mark the fact that nc
wrecks have occurred"
As matter Of fact, the Illinois
Central has had but few wrecks dur
ing the past several months. and is to
be congratulated for the skillful man
agement of the trains and the differ
ent departments. The class OF officials
stationed in Paducsh and on the
Louisville and Tennessee divisions Of
the road are the best possible to Sc
cure. and il any one can run trains
right and like they should be rum 1t
is the force now in Office.
The l. o. shops here are full OF
work and there are so many engine
tanks to overhaul that the painters
and boilermakers have to work them
out side the shops, on the sidetracks.
The shops are full and machinists
working day and night. The engines
wrecked during the winter are all be-
ing turned out as fast as the mechanics
can finish them. Before the summer
is out the company will have much
more motive power than the begin
ming of last winter for the reason that
more than dozen engines will be
turned out and placed in service again.
The Illinois Central depot has been
thoroughly cleaned, from ceiling to
floor, and now presents . clean and
neat appearance. The 10. shop yards
have been cleaned also and are look
ing much better. The tracks from
the shops to the dispatchers' offices
are being overhauled and new ties be-
ing put down. The road is work
ing steadily to better the condition OF
local terminals and make them rs good
as any others on the road.

Mrs. Gauvey we're away from their homes
until late in the evening. Late at night
Mrs. Gauvey started for her apartments,
saying she was going by way OF the roof

she went to the root together. Their

trying to recover her balance she pulled
Mrs. Gauvey toward the railing. and the

which are narrow, make three curves to

descended they struck The stair raillngs

Fatal Leap of Physician.

Suffering from acute nervous disorders
DIR. Georfe Purviance, aged 63, of Wash
ington, d. c., climbed out upon fourth
story balcony of the Orthopedic Hospital
in Philadelphia, last night, and plunged
headforemost, landing with terrible force
in a little area below the pavement level.
He was instantly killed. One of the
nurses of the ward in which DR.. Pur-
Vance had been confined ran to the
window, when she saw him climbing on
the balcony. She reached out and
grasped his shoulder, but was herself
nearly dragged out OF the window by
the doctor. Shortly after o'clock last
night the nurse saw the doctor leave his
bed and walk toward the window.
Upon an overhanging balcony the sick
man crawled, paying no attention to the
frightened nurse. She ran after him,
clu.ched him, but the demented man
grasped her waist ard started to climb
over the railing with her. The nurse
struggled, but the sick mans hold tight
ened. She shrieked for help, and men
and women on the other side OF the
street screamed, but were helpless. FL
nally the nurse gave up her bold on DIR.
Purviance, used her strength to tear
herself away and fell back within the
window. DR.. Puryiance then lunged
downward into space. He struC side
wise on the iron railing of the areaway
and then fell below. He was dead when
picked up. DIR. Purviance wss the father
Of J. Nelson Purviance, of Philadelphia,
high Pennsylvania Railroad official,
who recently married Helen Morgan, a
Young society belle. On August 8 DR..
Purviance, who had large practice in
! Washington, where he lived alone, went
to Philadelphia and entered the Or
thopaedic Hospital to be treated for ner-
vousness. While not entirely irrational,
he was closely watched by the hospital
authorities.
DIR. Purviance was assistant surgeon
general of the Marine Hospital Service.
Wheu DIR. Purvisnce's health hrst
broke down from neurasthenia last sum-

MIR. BRYAN on the Race Issue.

The Philadelphia Saturday Evening
Post publishes an article by Hon. Will
liam j. Bryan on "Why the Democrats
of 1896 and 1900 Should Support Par
ker and Davis in 1904" He writes in
part as follows:
president Roosevelt is responsible
for the prominence of three issues which
the people are considering. First, he
has done more to embiiter the white and
black races against each other in the
South that any or even all of the Presi'
dents who have occupied the White
House since the civil war.
"Whether in insisting upon the ap-
pointment of cOlored officials over the
protest of white patrons of the office he
has been actuated by a desire to help
the colored people or by desire TO make
political capital among the colored voters
of the North is immaterial. 1t is GER
tain that be has raised an issue which
hes thrown the southern States into
anxiety and alarm.
"His attempt to override the wishes
of the whites in various southern COM
munities has made the entire South
fearful that a second term may still
further estrange the races and plunge
that section of the country into the hOr-
rors of race struggle.
"The entertainment of Booker Wash
ington at the White House has been con-
struted by many as an attempt upon the
part of the President to raise the hequestion
of social equality, and this has further ag-
gravated the race situation in the South.
If the President intended to raise that
question with view Of settling it in
favor of the black man it means the
arousing of feeling which will serious
ly interfere with the calm consideration
of industrial and economic problems.
''If, on the other hand, the President
did not intend to force upon the public
the consideration of thequestion OF social
equality, it was exceedingly unfortunate
that he did anything that could bear
that construction.
1.-The people of the north where the
dominance of the white race is not men,
aced, and where the blacks are compara-
lively few in number, have no concep-
ton OF the conditions which prevailed in
the south during the period OF recon-
struction, and it is therefore difficult for
them to understand the feeling OF the
southern people.
president Roosevelt has not only dis
turbed the south by the creation of a
race issue, but he has offended the
sentiment of the entire country by the
substitution of a staggering, warlike
spirit for the pacific spirit which has
heretofore characterized our national
administration. We have had some
eminent soldiers in the White House,
conspicuous among whom were Wash
ington, Jackson and Grant, but never
have we had President who seemed to
take so much delight as does our present
President in war and the recital OF war
like deeds.

without Saloons or Policemen.

AS a result Of the vigorous measures
taken bv the Breathitt county, KY,
grand jury, Jackson is without either
saloons or policemen. Circuit Judge
Riddle decided that the granting OF Ii
censes for saloons was illegal and ordered
the saloons closed. The board OF trus'
tees has retaliated by dismissing the po-
lice force on the ground that without the
revenue from saloon licenses it was
unable to pay policemen. County Judge
James Hargis has come to the relief OF
the situation by having an extra force oil
the deputy sheriffs sworn in. Judge
Hargis has declared that there shall
neither be saloons nor "blind tigers" in
Jackson.
