Sioux Falls. S. D., Aug. 26-Details OF
an accident which resulted in the In
slant death Of two men at a crossing
Of the Illinois Central railroad, three
miles west OF Hills. have been re-
ceived in this city. The victims of the
accident were Thomas Sayre and his
cousin, Walter Cogswell, whose home
was at Valentine. Neb. The only wit
nesses to the accident were the engt-
neer and fireman. Two horses were
attached TO the buggy in which the
men were riding. The public highway

lent occurred slopes sharply toward
the track. \ heavy willow hedge OBJ
scures the track until within n shor
distance of the crossing. The trains

rate Of speed. md with the track par
TALLY obscured by the hedge and the
fact that IA strong wind was blnwing
at the time of the accident doubtless
prevented the men either seeing or
hearing the approaching train. They
were squarely OF the track when the
rapidly moving train struck them.
Both men were instantly killed. One
of the horses was also killed and the
other badly injured. The buggy was
reduced to kindling wood.

BoDY's POWER OVER THE
aPlRIT

There is nothing like a good dinner
TO make ii mar optimistic. This is "a
physical law and God observed il when
he sent to h help of Elijah an angel
to prepare for the discouraged prophet
a meal. Possibly 1t seems strange that
an angel from heaven should condes-
cend to cook a meal for a ma whose
encouragement was ~disloyalty. Yet
even Jesus prepared a meal for his dis
ciples. No office of usefulness is too
lowly for Gods highest
The angels remedy struck at the
root OF the trouble. The prophet was
physically worn out. He needed not
some new message from God. some
fresh revelation vi the divine will, but
simply food and rest. There is "A scien-
tiiic lesson in physical culture here.
Too many persons have ill-treated
their bodies in the name of the Lord.
Gods laws are written In our bodies
as well as in His holy book. Health
is II talent to which all other talents
are secondary, and 1t must be guarded
s%acredly. These hurrying. unresting.
overwOrking times need the lesson of
this meal in the desert.
THE PROPHET REEVES.
In the strength Of hat food, angel
brought and heaven sent-food for the
spirit as we'll as for body-Elijah trav-
eIed forty days to Mount Sinai. II was
"a slow Journey Of only about forty
miles. with plenty of time for medita-
ton and rest by the way. The dis
couraged prophet was cured OF his
spiritual reaction by "a fresh spiritual
experience, of his physical exhaustion
by sufficient rest and food, of his
fear of Jezebel by a new touch of Gods
presence, and of his dependency by a
clear sense of being still needed for
divine service which came too from an
other commission,

French translators are to make an
other attempt to turn Shakespeare's
king Lear into their language. This.
the third attempt, will be undertaken
by Pierre Lott. a noted author. French
translations OF the English poet since
the days of V0ltaire have never proved
successful, being either burlesques,
rank perversions or too literal render
lngs OF the original. Shakespearean
cholars will be interested In the out
come OF the present endeavor. which.
It IL said. has been undertaken with a
view to doing Justice both to Shakes
peare and to French taste. But liter
ary France never valued the English
dramatist highly.
