Fifteen Persons Are Injured Two
Probably Fatally, in Disas-
trous Smashup.

Pueblo, Col, Oct 17-Fifteen per-
sons were injured, two of them per-
maps fatally, in a collision Saturday
between the east-bound California linn
lted passenger train No. and west
bound freight train ON the Denver &
Rio Grande railroad, mile and a half
west of Portland.
The most seriously injured are:
Mrs. Cunningham, Eden, Col. severe
bruises and probably internal injuries.
Engineer Boosinger, of freight train.
arm and jaw broken, probably in
ternal injuries. Six others were Sc
riously injured.
The accident was due to the failure
OF the freight train, which was late.
to take the siding at Portland and al
low the passenger train, which was
running on schedule time and had the
right OF way, to pass. Both locomo-
tlVes were completely wrecked and
the baggage and express cars were
telescoped and piled in a heap. The
forward end of the day coach was
smashed and five freight cars loaded
with merchandise were demolished.

Here they are maintained free of
charge, at the expense of the state, and
given an education more or less on the
lines of that obtainable in the ordinary
public schools. In addition they are
taught drill, gymnastics, riding, etc.,
and they wear the uniform of the regi-
ment, of which they are Unfortunately
proud. One tiny little chap saw, only
seven years old, stood up to be photo
graphed with the greatest delight, and
tried to look at least seven feet high!
When they have done their schooling
they are trained for some trade, and al
lowed to DO their military service four
years earlier than other people. When
they come out they are helped to find
some work, and launched in the world.
Close to the camp are number of lit
tie country houses, dalchi, as they are
called, inhabited in summer by the
families and friends of the officers who
selves are allowed to sleep at home if
they wish to do so, and there is plenty
of social life at Krasnoe Selo. A large
of Petersburgers whose busi-
ness ties them to town in the summer
months, take country houses at places
where there is convenient train serv-
i've, and many of them choose Krasnoe
Selo. 1t is said that this residence is
particularly affected by families in
which there are daughters of marriage
able age, as the proximity of the camp
offers many opportunities to designing
mothers!
On the whole, the officers have good
time during the all-too-short summer
at Krasnoe Selo; but many of them have
now preferred to exchange their peace
full surroundings for the seat of war,

Drunken Man in Church.

Stepping down from the pulpit In
the midst of his sermon, Rev. 7. E.
cullen of the Church of the Immacu-
late Conception, Minneapolis, startled
his congregation by picking up pail
badly intoxicated man from front
pew and carrying him tenderly to the
front door and the sidewalk.
The man had staggered into the
church during the service and planted
himself in front seat. In the middle
of Father Cullen's sermon he was over
come with remorse, and began to moan
very audibly about his sins.
The clergyman continued for brief
period, but when the penltent became
too loud for endurance he descended
from, his pulpit and grasped the poor
wretch and took him to the cool breezes
Not word was spoken, and when
his charge had been carefully laid on
the ground, Father Cullen resumed
his sermon at the point where he left
off,

well as more gorgeous passementeEie
and gimp.
A lot of coarse lace is being used
with the fine-faced cloth dresses, chiefly
Maltese or yak, dyed to match the
frock in color. For instance, a bright
shade of navy-faced cloth is made with
bolero showing insertions of medal
lions of heavy Maltese lace, dyed to
the same shade, and decorated with
velvet buttons in different sizes; the
bolero is edged with little chenille balls
and is fitted tightly into the back with
deeply swathed corsage of velve.,
falling loose in the front over a waist
coat of shaded blue and green velvet
embroidery ard soupcon of lace. The
skirt is prettilly pleated in at the hips
and is decorated with buttons round
the feet where it is very full; it is
worn over soft brocade petticoat.
Then l have seen brown corduroy
cloth, made in plain but very smart
tailor style; the sleeves are very grace
full and not quite tight. The cuffs and
revers are of copper colored embroid-
cry. The basque is full and is longer in
the front than at the back, finished
with brown braid, three rows OF which
appear on the plain but long, full skirt.
With this is worn a delightful tricorne
hat in brown chenille, decorated with
shaded autumnal roses to tone with the
gilet of the same faded brown and cop
per tones.
| must tell you of an afternoon tot
lette de visite in olive green cloth; the
skirt is trimmed with graduated bands
of brown and green taffeta; this is
with the bands of taffeta, loose in the
front and fitting at the sides and back
into tight, beautifully shaped band of
green suede; beneath this bolero is a
dainty blouse of cambria and the hat
is of shaded velvet and plumes.
Beautiful brocades will be seen in
the toilette de visite and taffeta is by
no means passe. We shall see fur
trimmings later on, especially on the
Jew paletots.
Paquin is making a special feature
of beautiful stoles of silver fox, and
this is SO becoming a fur. Lovely bo-
leros are made of chinchilla and Direc-
toire coats in velvet are trimmed with
sable and ermine.
There are very few capots worn; but
small eighteenth century hats seem to
daily becoming more popular, with big
plumes at the side, while large Direc-
toire hats will accompany the gowns
of that period.
Beautiful models of Louis XVI. bro
cades are favorite evening dresses and
Worth is showing some wonderful ex-
amples in bright and faded shades Of
vieux rose.
The Princess robe will, think, gain
favor both in cloth and velvet
AS a rule the Partisan, for the street
at any rate, likes quiet colorings and
neat dressing. The neat tailor made
coats with short basques show quite
plain sleeves with velvet collars and
cuffs. There are many pleated skirts
worn, and these are little longer than
those of last winter. Tweed and plaid
skirts are to be seen in the Bots in the
with coats of plain cloth to
harmonic in tone. Carriage wraps are
gorgeous, and here chinchilla will be
used in conjunction with
painted chiffon, beautiful velvet and
priceless laces. ANNETTE GIRVY.
