Another Wreck.

Yesterday afternoon at about o'clock freight No l.249. in charge of from Waterbury. and as it rounded the Waterbury, and as it rounded the curve just above the crossing in Union City it tried to make flying switch at the same time that a number of box cars as well as a few fiat cars were trying to make the same switch. with the result that the back trucks wer1 torn from under the tender as we'll as smashing up one end of the box cars and tearing up a large number of ties and displacing the track for a dis tance of fifty.fve or sixty feet. As soon as Engineer Beardsley saw that both were trying for the same switch he whistled for brakes and then jumped from the engine. The head brakeman saw his danger in time and quickly jumped and escaped with a few scratches and lame ankle. The construction for the new track which is taking place there is no doubt the cauSe of the accident. This being the second one inside of a day. it will ng doubt make them a good deal more careful in the future

On Tuesday morning at st. Peter

white pongee silk and carried
flowers. The groom was attended

After the ceremony at the church

COLOR OF THE SUN.
What Would Happen II 1t We're 9th.
err Than What II liz.


a German astronomer has published
some interesting observations OH the
theoretical effects of change in the
color of the sun. 1t is amazing to con-
slider the possibilities If our sun We're
green, blue or red instead of what it
Is. If it We're blue, there would be
only two colors in the world-blue and
black. If it We're red, then everything
would be red or black. Ii it We're yell
low, everything would be yellow or
black. Every one knows that the light
Of our sun consists of six colors, and
the reason things are different hues is
that some swallow up five of the colors
and reflect only one. Thus we have
primoses yellow because they absorb
all but the yellow. roses red because
they absorb all but the red, violets
purple because they absorb every
thing but red and blue, Il mixture of
which two colors forms purple.
In the event of the sun being red,
roses, blood, red ink and all other
things that are now red would reflect
1t. So also would snow, the lily and
all things that are now white, but
these would, of course, be rcd. Every
thing else would swallow up the red
light and appear quite black. Grass,
for instance, would be black as ink,
and so would the blue of the sky, but
the white clouds would be red The
same kind of thing would happen if
the sun We're blue. Everything now
blue or white would be blue and every
thing else black. The whole sky,
clouds and all, would be blue. The
grass this time would be blue, not
black, for it reflects both blue and
yellow. Hair would be all black, the
red of the lips would be black. and the
rest of the face would be cloudy
blue. If the sun We're green, we would
have little variety. Things that are
now yellow would still be yellow,
things that are blue would be blue.
and things that are green would still
be green, but there would be no reds,
puppies. orange, pinks or any Of those
CHEEKY hues that make the world look
so bright-New York Herald

THE BAYEUx TAPESTRY.
An Extraordinary Work Of Art of
Great Historic Value.

An Extraordinary Work of Art of
Great Historic Value.
Few besides those who have visited
BaycuX or have especially studied the
subject have any idea Of what this eX-
traordinary work of art is really like
or have any authentic knowledge of its
history. 1t tells the story Of Edward,
Harold and William and of the COLI
quest of William in series Of pic
lures. so that its value is great us q
chronicle us well as relic Of needle
work 500 years old.
The vicissitudes of the treasure have
been many. 1t is a curious fact that
from 14TG until 1924 it seems to have
dropped entirely out of the worlds
knowledge. 1t was preserved with
care among the treasures Of the
Baycux cathedral and was brought out
for eight days every summer and hung
about the nave of the cathedral. No
one but the peasants ever saw 1t, and
the cathedral authorities cared for it
only as Il decoration. In 1924 an old
drawing of part Of the tapestry came
into the hands Of Il learned antigua
rian, who tried without success to find
the original. The Pere Montfaucon
also tried to find it and at last succeed
ed and told the world about 1t in his
great book, monuments de In Monar-
chic Franchise"
The church had no power to protect
such treasure III 1924, and the ancient
length of linen with its quaint en-
broidery was dragged out Of the ca
thelral and used to cover one of the
military wagons belonging to the local
battalion. NJ lie Forester rushed to
its rescue and substituted canvas to
cover the wagon and brought the tap
estry to his study till he was relieved
from his self appointed mission by a
commission that undertook the protec-
ton of the work of art. Now the tap
estry has been restored and may be
seen framed under glass in museum
of its own.

is the Douglas pine, famous for its
magnificent cones. Now, David Doug
las was originally Scotch lad who
came under the notice of Sir William
Hooker. the well known botanist, and
through his influence was appointed
collector of rare plants to the Iorti-
cultural society. He Travelled for the
society III all parts of the world and
was extraordinarily successful in his
finds. 1t was he who discovered lu-
pins. eschschOltZias and godctias as
well as many magnificent varieties of
pine trees, including the one bearing
his name. But when quite Il young
man lie met IL tragic fate while plant
hunting. He was in the Sandwich
isles, and there the natives dig deep
pits to catch wild animals, covering
them over with branches and grass to
conceal their openings. On to one of
these treacherous pits Douglas walked
one day when alone and was nt3oncc
precipitated to the bottom. Nofhelp

Obituary.

At an early hour Sunday morning
June II, the angel Of death entered
our vicinity, taking for his victim
little Anna, the beloved daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. nj. j. Cooney, aged 6
years aud 8 months. She was i'll
with appendicitis buta few days, and
her death came as great shock to
all. During this short illness all
that medical skill and kind and low
ing hearts could do was done, but
all could not save her.
Her life on earth was brief, but her
sweet, loving disposition made her
favorite with all, and in her quiet,
childish way she won the hearts OF
all. That she was a favirite at school
was shown by the tributes of flowers
brought by sorrowing schoolmates
Funeral services were held from
the church of the Immaculate Con-
ception at Nashville, Father Hanley
of Mont, preaching an eloquent and
impressive sermon, emphasizing the
words, Suffer little children to come
unto me- showing that death like
hers is only an awakening into bet
ter and more blissful abode. Six
little girls, dressed in white and car
rying carnations, acted as pail bear
ers.
The family have the sympathy of
all i'll their aifliction.
Another hand is Reckoning us,
Another call is given;
And CLOVIS once more with angel steps
The path that reaches heaven.
As pure and sweet her fair brow seemed
Eternal as the sky,
And like brooks low song her voice
A song which cannot die.
And half We deemed Anna needed not
The changing Of sphere.
To give to heaven shining one.
Who walked an angel here.
The blessings of her quiet life
Fell on us like the dew.
And good thoughts. where her footsteps pressed.
Like fiery blossoms grew
There Sc emed shadow on the day
| Her smile no longer cheers,
| A dlmness on the star Of night.
| Like eyes that looked through tears.
We miss her when we kneel for prayer.
| And by the hearth. fires light
| We gauSe before her door to hear
Once more her kiad goodnight.
Alone unto her Fathers will
One thought has recOnciled.
That He whose love exceeded yours
| Has taken home His child.
Fold her, o Father. In thine arms
! And let her henceforth be-
A messenger Of love between
| Our human hearts and Thee.
|
