SOME very able articles have lately
been published regarding railroad acci-
dents; but collisions due to mistakes by
employees, like the one in Missouri,
Monday, can only be prevented by the
double track. The results of these col
lisions. however telescopiDg of the
cars and the horrible slaughter of
human beings can be prevented, or at
least modified, by building the coaches
with steel-frames, as are the Pullmans /;
and ii would not be bad idea to re-
quire the heavy Pullmans to be run
next to the engines Legislation-both
state and national Regarding the con-
struction, equipment and management
of our railroads seems to be needed.

Trolley Lines.

We hear much of proposed trolley
lines, these days, and it may be inter-
esting to know that there are something
over thirty Thousand miles of trolley
line in the country today. or about what
all the steam roads Of the country
amounted to forty years ago. These
trolley lines usually pay good dividends,
and the mileage is rapidly increasing,
though at present, there is great field
for inventors in the use of electricity, as
only about fifteen per cent of the heat
developed from the combustion of the
coal is now made applicable.
The action of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road in determining to convert most of
the heavy traffic lines of the Long
Island system into electric roads is an
event Of unusual Importance. 1t fol
lows fast on the decision of the New
York Central to use electricity entirely
within the city limits of New York. 1t
is perhaps the more significant because
only three years ago. after very care
full examination of the subject, electri-
cal engineers and railway experts came
to the conclusion that there was no
economy in making the transfer from
steam to electricity. Since then there
have been number of inventions by
which the so called third-rail system
has become not only absolutely safe. but
much more economical than steam.

The Concord Centennial.

Though the weather was unfavorable
the old church of Concord, near Middle
town, was crowded last Tuesday for the
Centennial Celebration. Several hund-
red people were present and among
them at least a dozen from Butler,
who greatly enjoyed the occasion.
Entertainment for all had been pro
vided at the church, the program as
printed was carried out, several inter
esting addresses were made, and the
Centennial was a success.

Yestesdays dispatches stated that tie
two armies had come together and that
great battle was raging.
The lately received by
the Russians gives them the numerical
superiority, and the Japs had contract
ed their lines to about twenty miles.
In the artillery duel preceding the
battle, the Japs seem to have had the
best of it, driving the Russians from
several of their positions. During a
fight at one village clouds of dust pecu

At the meeting of the Cabinet in
Washington. Tuesday, the violation by
Russia of her treaty obligations 10 us,
by the seizure of United States mail
matter ON board the British steamer
"Calchas" was discussed and Russia
will be asked to explain.
One of the seizures made by the Val
| livestock fleet during its brief period
of pernicious activity in japanese
waters was that of the British steam
ship Calchas, bouEd from Seattle to
Yokohama with cargo of four and
general merchandise.
| 1t was understood at the time that
the seizure was made upon the ground
that the flour was contrabrand of war;
but since then the Russian Government,
receding from its original position upon
! this point, has admitted that provisions
are only to be treated as coutrabrand
/ when it can be shown that they are in
/ tended for belligerent use, and the flour
taken from on board the Calchas and
confiscated By the Russian authorities

How Nerve Energy Is wasted.

So many people needlessly and reck-
lessly waste their nerve energy. They
drum the chair or the desk with their
fingers or tap the floor with their toes;
they hold their hands; they sit in a
rocking chair and rock for very dear
life. If they go upstairs they make
the whole body do the work that was
intended only for the legs; if they write
or sew they get down to it with a
vengeance and contract their brOws
and wrinkle their fOreheads and grind
their teeth.
If they have an unusual task to do
they screw Nnd contract and comfort
every muscle of the body, making
themselves tense and rigid all over,
when the work perhaps requires but
one set of muscles or perhaps the mind
only, as the case may me.
Wasting nerve energy; frittering it
away.
Little things, to be sure. But little
things have way of adding them
selves up into big things. - Medical

The Pnet,s Impromptu.

Edward Young, the author Of might
Thoughts" was a man of the world
and a shrewd and caustic wit as well
as a poet and the rector of st. Mary's
church at Welwyn. 1t was there, in
the garden Of the rectory, that he COM
posed some of the best impromptu
verses known. He was walking with
two ladies when some one summoned
him to the house. But his companions
were agreeable, and he was in no
haste to leave them. Turning as he
reached the gate, he said:
Thus Adam looked when from the garden
driven
And thus disputed orders sent from
heaven.
Like him go. and yet to go am loath;
Like him go. for angels drove us both.
Hard was his fate, but mine still more I'M
kind
His Eve went with him. but mine stayi
behind.

Der, and the girl and her companion
paced aimlessly up and down the plat
form of the little Scottish railway sta
ton, waiting for the sOuthbound train.
A handsome young man who had
been taking turn up and down the
opposite platform, waiting apparently
for train to the north, glanced across
at the people who, like himself, paced
back and forth impatiently. AS his
eyes fell upon the tall, graceful girl
with face like a brilliant flower, he
paused in establishment Then a wave
of warmth and excitement surged over
him and he dashed across the tracks
and advanced with boyish eagerness
toward her.
1t was pretty bit of comedy spar
king with pleasure, surprise, eager
ness. Then the big black engine swept
down upon them with a wild, trium-
plant shrek as much as to say: mo
more of this nonsense. Come with me

were obliged to part.

stood at the door of the compartment.

she replied archly.
Then the guard called "All aboard, .

farewell, the train pulled out of the

Two years later the servants at Fair
acre received notice from their young
mistress of her intention of opening
the house for a few weeks. The old |
place had been closed since her early |
childhood.
She had Travelled far and wide; been |
courted and admired. But after awhile /
one got tired-sO tired. In the very
midst OF the season, when gayety was
at its height, thoughts of the dear old
days haunted her mind. They were
gone forever, those wonderful childish
days, but at least she would go back
and have a bit of make believe all
to herself.
Tears rose in her eyes as she was
driven up to her own door How we'll
she remembered the quaint support
ing pillars and the broad veranda! The
sun was just dropping out of sight, but
it's faint golden glow fingered lovingly
on the place. In the darkness of her
old room that night she thought with
wet eyes of the little girl of other days.
At o'clock the next morning she
stole down to the stone fence once
more, smiling foolishly to herself as
she did so. There was no need to hide;
the boy would not go by. And so she
leaned upon the WALL thinking pensive-
~ of the past.
a weird buzzing aroused her, and
she looked up to see a big, red touring
car spinning down the road toward
Il. A,t,e,< 4
differently. Then as it drew nearer
and the outlines of it's occupant be-
came clear her heart jumped with de-
light

excitedly.
At the same moment the automobile
slackened speed. and the man inside
! lifted his hat with a flourish and sang
out jOyously: Hello. little girl! What
you staring at?" AS Of yOre she drop
ped suddenly down out of sight.
But isn't 1t strange that you should
happen along this very first morning
that I'm homer" she Queried when,
their nonsense over. they stood talk
ing across the wall
well. not so odd as it would have
been If | had not known you were
coming" he admitted laughingly. Then
a queer look came into his eyes.
why haven't you married?" he de
manded abruptly. She opened her lips
to reply, but something in his face ar
rested her. She flushed furiously. He
laid his hand on hers.
Haven't we been a pair of idiots?'
he asked. with a happy laugh.
