At the Patterson-wylie family re-
union held Wednesday at Chipmunk
school house Rev. J. II. Gordon told a
seasonable story which provoked much
mirth. The tale had to do with the
famous U. B. & N. sink hole the con
dition of which abyss Is critical at the
present time, another sinking spell
having been suffered py it recently
Rev. Mr. Goidon's soliloquy told of a
Bellefontaine lady who lately boarded
a car bound for the sink hole. When
near the much heralded spot she
anxiously inquired of the conductor
which end of the car che should alight
from when the hole was reached and
when the conductor remarked that
ether end would do as both ends of
the car stopped, you can well imagine
that the answer not only caused the
lady to feel somewhat chagrinned but
considerably disconnected.

If interest does not revive shortly
the Bellefontsine Commercial club will
go the way of similar organization
that fiourished for time IN Urbsna
The Citizen speaking of the action OF
the club in ordering the furniture sold
said that the trouble with their organ
izstion was that there we're too many
people ready to yowl about the legal
phase of every matter that came up
Commercial clubs do things: they
don't parley over inconssquential
things or legal technicslities and that
is why this club failed of its mission
because it did. Had the Urbana club
sought TO bring industries to the city
instead of enlightening one another
upon the legal status of each project.
the city would have had more enter
prises and the club would have had a
more enthusiastic membership.

Republican County Executive Com.

to hear the address of United States
Senator Fairbanks, of indianapolis,
vice presidential nominee of the Re
publican party, and to invite him to
come to this county during the coming
campaign to make an address Sena-
tor Fairbanks was unable to make any
definite promise that he would be able
to come but thanked Mr.. Hover most
cordislly for the invitation and inform
ed him that when the Executive Com
mittee desired to have him come word
should be sent to him and he would
come if it was possible for him to do
so. Mr.. Hover is much elated over the
conditional promise and believes that

One probable reason given for the
disastrous wreck near Pueblo. Colora-
dc. was that the engineer thought the
passengers were anxious to make a
quick trip and even though he saw the
water rushing over the rails he decid-
ed to go ahead without making an in
vestigation OF the condition of the road
way. Might it not be in place to ask
if the anxiety of the railways to in
crease speed without first having per.
fected the tracks has not resulted in
too rapid rate for safety of life? II
the railway msgnates care nothing for
the welfare of their loads of human
freight cannot some statistics upon
loss by wear and tear of machinery be
furnished to oring them to realiz-
ing sense of change that must be made :

Socialists Attack Dynasty.

During the session of the Austrian
Reichsrath yesterday afternoon Herr
Pernerstorfer, one OF the socialist leaders,
made q violent attack on the imperial
dynasty. Referring to the Innsbruck
affair, he alleged that the highest In
fluences had been used to prevent bar.
monious understanding being reached
between Germans and Italians within
the monarchy, adding that settlement OF
national differences in the Tyrol were
now rendered impossible for many years.
The speaker proceeded 10 refer to the
dynasty, which he charged with being
responsible for all the unhappy condi-
tions prevailing in Austria. The Hays
burgs, he said, had always regarded the
country as an object of exploitation and
had been a burden upon the people for
600 years. The members ofthe imperial
family we're not even prominent for per-
sopal qualities. The women, he assert.
ed, were bigcts and the men clerical par
tisans, mostly ignorant and uneducated
He concluded by characterizing the
Iiapsbl-ss as the evil fortune OF th'
realm. Count Dzltuduszyoki, the new
" elected leader OF the Polish party, in
dignantly protested against Perners
toTfer's speech, which, he said, woulc
not be permitted in any other Parila
ment of the world.
