The Railroad Rate Question.

In an exhaustive discussion of the present
law under which the interstate commerce
commission operates Secretary Taft ex-
planned how railroad rate questions were
brought before the commission and.
through the commission. before the courts.
He indicated many of the difficulties under
which the commission operates, some Of
which lead TO reversal of the commission S
orders by the courts
These results" said the Secretary, con
vnced those familiar with the law and
anxious that il should operate effectively
that the two changes necessary were first
provisions authorizing the commission in
declaring rate to be unrea easonable, to de-
clare AT the same time what was maxi
mum reasonable rate and to make an or
der requiring the company to reduce its
rate To that maximum; and. second, that
the law should, under proper penalty, re-
quire obedience to the order of the commits
sion and thus compel the carriers to treat
the order with proper respect, reserving to
them the opportunity to avoid its operation
by resort to the federal court and set
ting aside of the order by judicial superse-
isdS or final decree

Turned States Evidence.

Lucy Mayo, a colored woman, ar
rested with the colored men in connec-
ton with the criminal assault and
murder of Mrs. S. J. Smith last Satur-
day night, near Gadsden, Ala, yesterday
turned States evidence before the
coroner's jury. Her evidence impli-
Gates Jack Hunter, who is still at large,
and Vance Garner and Will Jackson,
who are now confined in the Birming-
ham iail. She says Garner described
the whole crime to her on the morning
il happened. She claims Garner told
her that he and viii Johnson were on
the mountain and heard the woman
screams; that they ran to her and found
Jack Hunter dragging her across the
road by the hair. The two men then
helped to drag her off the road, aud
each assisted in the crime. The men
had decoyed the woman from her home
by sending Bunk Richardson, a negro
also under arrest, to the house, telling
her that her two boys were drunk In
town. She went for them, and it was on
her return toward home that the deed
was committed.

RoysImprisoned i'm Sewer.

Imprisoned p hours hours in 20
inch sewer main and crawling in that
time 800 yards through its noisome course
was the terrible experience yesterday OF
RAYMOND Kenney and William Toomay,
of Naugatuck, 6 and 8 years old, respec.
lively, Iof Derby, Conn. With several
companions the boys wero playing ball
in Cherry street, when the ball bounded
into manhole. Kenney and Toomay
lowered themselves into the man-hole,
and not finding the hall, began to ex-
plore the sever pipe. They became con-
fused in the darkness and lost their way.
Their companions were too frightened to
give an alarm for nearly two hours, and
then an exciting search which attracted
hundreds of persons was begun. The
boys were found unconscious and were
rescued through another man-hole. they
are suffering from sewer-gas poisoning,
but probably will recover.

Excursion Train in Accident.

An excursion train of nine coaches
and baggage car, bound from Roanoke
to Richmond and Norfolk, was wrecked
yesterday afternoon near Prospect, AZ
miles east of Lynchburg. The train was
running 80 miles an hour, when the
tender baggage car and four coaches
left the track, But, strange to say, the
only injuries to the 800 or 400 passen.
gers, so far as reported, one woman had
a rib broken and two men were slightly
injured. The section gang, it is said,
had 'jacked the track up" for repairs,
not knowing the excursion was coming,
and when the train passed over it the
cars left the track. The women psssen'
gers were greatly frightened and a num-

Fell Two Thousand Feet.

Two thousand persons gathered yes
terday morning at the Santa Clara Col
lege grounds, in California, to witness
the flight of John j. MontgOmery's aero
plane. the Santa Clara. The machine
collapsed at the height oi 1000 feet,
and the aeronant, Daniel Maloney, was
hurled to the ground. The wings OF the
fying machine were splintered into match
wood. Malouey was picked up with a
fractured skull and lived only an hour.
The weather conditions were perfect.
The balloon was released without mishap
and every circumstance was ausplcious.
While thousands gazed upon the dimin-
ishing outline of the balloon Maloney
could be seen calmly seated upon the
little saddle of the aeroplane, ready to
cut loose when the highest point In the
ascent had been reached. When the fab
ric was but speck in the sky the bal
loon and aeroplane slowly parted COM
PAW. The aeroplane, like butterfly,
settled gently in the air, buoyed only
by IFS own wings. To the left the aero
plane slowly circled, cutting pretty figures
in the air.
Suddenly the device refuse to obey the
guiding hand of the aeronaut, and, max
ing an abrupt circle, plunged quickly to
the left and nearly overturned. Maloney
could be seen struggling with the guide
wires. hut in an instant 1t was apparent

ward. One of the rear wings collapsed
as the aeroplane gained impetus. Its mate
snapped from its support and fluttered
limp in the air. The front wings still
remained outspread and checked slightly
the swiftness of the descent.
At the first sign of disaster the crowd
broke into a wild scramble for the spot
where it was apparent the doomed aero
paut must fall. The balloon had drifted
slightly to the east when Maloney cut
loose, and it was apparent that the broken

wards away the League Of the Cross
Cadets, for whose benefit the ascension
was given, were encamped. Several
cadets rushed to the spot. They found
Maloney lying limp and apparently llle'
less among the broken remnants OF the
aeroplane. From the wreck the dying
man was carried unconscious, but still
breathing heavily. He did not regain
consciousness, dying within short time.
His neck was broken and his skull
crushed by portion of the framework.
The bones of one leg were also broken
and he was injured internally. 1t is
considered marvellous he breathed at all

less than 1000 feet.
J. ]. Montgomery, the inventor,
directed the ascent yesterday morning
and witnessed the accident which came
a. crushing blow to his hopes. Ma
loney was an expert aeronaut and had
made many balloon ascensions in
San Francisco.

NATURE SPARES
The Stricken Rose From Grief.

What a fortunate provision of nature
it is that deprives the rose of mental
suffering; for how poignant would be its
grief to discover, in the height Of its
blooming glory, that a canker fed at its
heart, and that its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares tine suffering; she is a veritabe
store-house Of pleasing rewards. for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair and grayness have
cast a gloom over the lives of thousands
OF young women. but thanks to the in
Yestigations OF scientists the true cause
OF hair destruction Is now known to be
germ or parasite that burrows into

Notes Of the Churches.

The handsome new Lutheran churcl
at Waynesboro, Pa, of which Rev
G. II. Rockey, f1rmerly of Shepherds
town, is pastor, was dedicated las
Sunday with appropriate services
The dedicatory sermon was preached
by Rev. DR.. Il. G. Haithcox, pastor
of the Lutheran Church at Shepherds
town. The new church and par
sonage cost $5l,178.O5, including al
organ 1920, $1,000 carpet, heat
ing plant at 81, 900, art glass windows,
furnishings, etc. At the service last
Sunday a deficiency of over $4,000
was reported, and subscriptions to
cover this sum were asked for. At
ter pledges to the amount OF Sl2,-
780 had been given, the church coun-
ell assumed the balance, and the edi
fee was formally dedicated to the
service of God. The services on Sun.
day were very interesting, and the
church was crowded to its utmost ca
pacity, many persons standing in the
vestibules, unable to get inside. The
new church is one Of the handsomest
in this section of the country. 1t ls
OF brown stone, very imposing in ap-
pearance, beautifully finished, and is
equipped with all modern accessories.
The auditorium has seating ca
pacity of about 700. The work of
construction occupied nearly two
years, but it is now completed and is
perfect in all details. A handsome
parsonage ia now being built adjoin-
ing the church. The friends Of Rev.
Mr.. Hockey in this place congratu-
late him on the success Of his arduous
work in completing this enterprise.
Rev. Frank Mcdaniel, formerly OF
Shepherdstown, now pastor OF an I'M
portant Methodist Episcopal church
in Orange, New Jersey, dedicated
handsome new church building Sun
day week ago. The cost of the
church was about $4,000, and a
mortgage of $4,000 remained upon
it. On Sunday a st, enuous effort
was made to wipe out this indebted
ness, and it was finally all arranged
for. After $27, $50 had been sub
scribed, Mrs. Thomas A Edison
agreed to pay the balance.
Information from Rev. R. Ashlin
White, of Gerardstown, pastor of the
Presbyterian churches on that circuit,
who has been at Clifton Springs, N.
Y, for his health, is that he Is i'm
proving, and his physicians give him
much encouragement to hope for a
speedy and permanent recovery. The
eminent throat specialist there has as
sured him that his throat trouble is OF
the slightest Importance. Mr.. White
expects to be home again before Christ
mas.
1t is said that Rev. A. A. Kerlin,

tons composing his charge are Keedys-
vile, Sharpsburg, Locust Grove and

SINS CONSEQUENCES
Innocent Indulgence Often Brings Trou-
Bile. Reinhart'S Pharmacy Offers Means
Of Escape.

The consequences of violating phys
zeal law are often as unpleasant as
the breaking of moral rule. The
innocent indulgence of eating
brings consequences that amount to
real suffering Indigestion is not nat
ural; it is not right it should DOT be.
Remnants Pharmacy offers a means
of escape in Mi-o-na tablets that is
simple and practical.
These simple tablets are composed
of such valuable medicinal agents as
bismuth subgallate, which is superior
to all other remedies for stomach trou-
bles, cerium oxalate, and tonics aud
correctives which promote the action
of the digestive organs, strengthen the
whole digestive tract, and make it
possible to eat what you like and when
you like.
Ask Remnants Pharmacy to show
you the guarantee under which they
sell Mi-o-na. 1t costs nothing unless
it cures. The risk is all theirs.
