steriIized Chambers for Grain.

Mr.. VIM. Goodwin, F. r. G. S., who
was for years leading South Ameri-
can grain exporter and inspector, ad-
Vocates the shipment of Argentine
corn in chambers sterilized with car
bonic acid gas. In an article con-
tributed to a London paper he said:
Some rs years ago Pasteur dem
onstrated that fermentation does not
result from the generation of gases
but from the action of living microbic
organisms; and 1t Is now known to
psychologists that some 95 per cent
OF the germs which cause fermenta-
ton in grain require oxygen as well
as certain amount of heat and mois-
ture for their development
Chemists say that inexpensive COM
positions Of a perfectly harmless ma
ture in their after effects on human
food, can be used to sterilize an air
chamber-that is either to consume
or drive out the oxygen contained in
air-and that their appli-
cation to the holds of a steamer or to
suitable warehouse silos, would only
need reasonable precautions.
The logical sequence of Pasteur's dis
covery should be a radical change in
the method Of storing grain and near
ly all other food products; and it
would appear that air in storage cham
bers either on sea or land, can be
more economically sterilized with car
bonic acid gas than by any refriger-
aIlng process"

Twenty-Five Die in Wreck 25 Miles
from Chicago.

Twenty-Five people were killed and six
ty-eight injured in a collision on the Chi
cago and Eastedn Illinois Railroad at
Glenwood, twenty-three miles south Of
Chicago. The collision occurred between
a picnic train from Chicago, which was
returning from Momence, ILL.,, and a
freight train, into the rear end Of which
It dashed at a high rate Of speed.
Two accidents combined to make the
disaster. The first was the breaking
down Of a freight train on the north
bound track OH which the excursion train
should have proceeded after leaving Chi
cago Heights, and the other was the
breaking of a coupling OF a second
freight train. Because the first train had
blocked the rightfui track, the excursion
train switched TO the southbound track
to run for four miles until it should have
passed the station Of Glenwood just
north Of Chicago Heights. AS it tore
along the track at the rate of forty miles
an hour, it rounded a full curve and
came upon the second train, which was
backing up on the s%outhbound track.
The engine, baggage car and first coach
Of the picnic train were demolished, and
all Of the killed aud wounded were on
the engines and the two cars.
The train which was wrecked left the
T~hirty-frst Street station Of the Chica-
90 and Eastern Illinois for Momence,
Ill. The picnic was the annual outing Of
the members Of the Doremus Congrega-
tionGl church Of Chicago. After spending
the day OF the picnic grounds at Mo-
mence the train started OH the return trip
running in as the second section Of the
regular passenger train, which is due in
Chicago at S:25.
In explanatioA OF the accident the EN-
gineer and crew Of the freight train say
that their train was not noticed until the
train northbound parted at Chicago
Heights, and the break was not noticed
until the train was nearing Glenwood.
The engineer knew that the excursion
train was coming, but believed that it
was OH the northbound track and was
switching his train from the northbound
to the %southbound track in an effort 10
keep out Of its way when il came on the
other track and smashed into his train.

WEEKS HAPPENINGS
NEWS OF THE WEEK IN A CON-
pENSED FORM.
Registration is Immense-fank'o"
Leads All ia Number Enrolled
Indians and Cowboys swoop Down
ON Bonesteel.

There was an unprecedented rush OF
land seekers at Yankton Monday, 1851
people registering at the government OF
fees for homes on the Rosebud. The
number exceeds by 1000 the record OF
any former day.
The speed with which the government
clerks handle people is simply marvellous
and proves their claim that they can
register 5000 daily. Special trans ana
double headers are on all roads to carry
the crowds.
Indians and cowboys swooped down
upon Bonesteel Sunday and took posses
sion. A band of Sioux has encampeu
in the outskirts of the town while a par
ty of broncho busters with Capt. HARDY,
the crack shot, is entertaining the pup
lie outside the town.
No registering was done Sunday, and
everything was quiet. There was no
street gambling and the front doors OF
the saloons were closed. Inside the
games and the drinks were as plentiful
as in week days.
When the registering office closed at
Bonesteel OH Saturday night 5000 people
had been registered at the Bonesteel sta
ton.
Interest al present centers in the prep
arations for the sale of the st. Elmo
townsite lots.
The ambitious projectors have all their
plans completed so as to erect their city
as if by magic. Lumber and material is
loaded on cars, ready for shipment into
the place as soon as the sale is COM
pleted. A postoffice is now being built,
a newspaper will be installed, a bank
established, and the town of st. Elmo
will spring full grown into the sister
hood of cities. The new town has one
very important and difficult requisite,
namely, water, and plenty of it. 1t also
has all immense granite stone quarry
which the projectors will exploit.
