Did a Boy
Turu the Switch

Cleveland, o. June 23.-Cs Especial
1t is accepted as a fact thai some
one deliberately wrecked the Twentl-
.eth Century Limited, and scores of
railroad detectives have been hur-
ried 10 the scene Of the wreck.
II is probable that an Investigation
will develop that a boy, IA years OF
age meddled with the switch at Men
phe.
The wreck is considered one Of the
worst railroad disasters OF recent
years The number of dead is 10.
and Of the . injured several will
probably die.
The train was the famous Twenti-
eth Century Limited, the fastest lone
distance train ia the world. 1t ran
through an open switch at SEQ pm
Wednesday while running at the rate
of 40 miles per hour. The long
train was completely demolished and
partly destroyed by fire.
The train was crowded with pas
sengers. practically all of its accom-.
modations being taken.

Dr. H. r. Bull stated this after
noon that the six passengers who
We're injured in the railroad wreck
and were brought to this city and
placed in St. Mary's hospital are get
ting along very nicely indeed Mrs
Matilda Jensen, the aged lady, whose
injuries We're the most serious, passed
a very comfortable night. and her
condition is very favorable this af.
ternoon. The condition of each OF
the other patients is most satisfac.
tory. All are improving. The in
iured people. with perhaps one eN.
ception. are all foreigners. Mrs
Jensen and two or three of the 9th.
ers are natives of Denmark. They
were all on their way to Utah where
they expect to make their homes in
one OF the Mormon towns. There
was large number of these foreign
immigrants on board the train en-
route TO Utah to settle.

Tn penmanship he was well nigh perfect and as secretary of organizations his services were at all times sought, as an expert in com mercial matters he was ever regarded as an expert and no man could hide out wrong when he took hold and in- vestigsted matters from a standpoint of just how they were casually written down. In a word he knew bookkeep- ing just like The Advertisers good Major Screws knows the editorial pro- fession. He was strictly honest and no man could get Tom Jones to do any thing that showed intrinsically wrong If perchance that term may be ap- piled to wrong.

Helping the Jury.

Speaking of the witticisms and hu- morous sallies of Curran, the famous Irish orator and lawyer, a biographer mentions the following example:
 Curran was once addressing an Irish speech he observed that the Judge shook his head. Fearing lest the ges- ture should have an adverse influence upon the jury, Curran warmed up for a moment and said:
 T see, gentlemen, the motion of His Lordship's head; but. believe me. If you remain here many days, you will see that when His Lordship shakes his head there's nothing in it."

He visit ed Glasgow, Manchester, Liverpool, London, Brussels, Amsterdam, Ant werk, Hamburg and Berlin. He told the President the opinion that public ownership of public utilities is a fail- ure in Europe, and predicted that, in d few years, it would have few support CTS even in Great Britain. where 1t has been popular.
