A Good Wine Needs a Bush.
From the Philadelphia Record.

There are dozens of wise-sounding old
saws which. like good counterfeits, will
pass muster, if accepted without scrutiny
but which do not ring true to the atten-
tive ear. For instance: "A good wine
needs no bush" That proverb crystallizes
an idea that was long ago exploded. The
better the wine, or any other salable COM
modify, the more essential it is to acquaint
the public with its merits through the
bush, or advertisement. If you have a
good thing you cannot push it along in the
dark. You must enlist the aid of the news
papers, and cry it forth from the house
tops

of the annual sugar crop Of Hawaii
and has 1t is statedf renewed for three
years its contract with eastern refin-

FAST TRAIN WRECKED.


Mentor, O., June 22.-Running at the
rate of more than so miles an hour,
the Twentieth Century Limited on the
Lake Shore railroad, dashed into an
open switch at the passenger station
here shortly before 10 o'clock Wednes-
day night. Four or FIVE persons were
killed and 10 or 10 injured. The COM
bination baggage and smoking buffet
car and the coach behind It caught fire
and were destroyed.
The train was eastbound, having left
Cleveland about o'clock and as II
does not stop here 1t was running
at great speed. The engineer did not
notice the open switch until the train
struck 1t. The engine left the rails
and plowed into the ground, tearing
up the strack for yards. The two
coaches following It jammed into 1t
with great force and were crushed, the
fire from the engine setting them
ablaze. Fortunately most Of the occu-
pants of these two coaches were res
cued before the fire reached them.
Among the killed is the engineer, the
other dead being passengers who were
in the smoking car. The fireman was
SO badly hurt that he will die and
among the injured is a Mr.. Wellman Of
Cleveland, and Attorney Bennett, OF
New York. .
The Lake Shore officials at once sum-
moned all the doctors within reach, a
number coming from Cleveland. The
dead and injured were taken care Of
and sent on special train to Cleveland
where they will be placed In hospitals.
