WORK OF RESCUE p1FF1cu1r.

The work of rescue was at first slow. and Il
seemed though the flames would envelop the
entire express train before those who were
pinned beneath the heavy wreckage could be
freed. Everywhere there came cries for help
Scores of those who were trapped in their sleep
ing berths or pinioned under wreckage were
taken out and laid in the field. badly hurt.
Soon the advancing fire drove the rescuers
the wreck. and the unfortunates. men and
women. were soon enveioped in the flames
The cries of the dying were plainly heard. but
nothing could be done for them. An alarm Of
fire was sent in but when the fremen reached
the scene the flames had done their work 50
far as the victims in the wreck were concerned
The entire train was consumed by fire.
After the victims in the wreck were beyond
human aid more attention was paid to the in
jured. who presented piJiable sight as they
lay in the field the banks of the river.
With the hremen came a corps OF physicians
from the city As quickly the injured were
temporarily relieved of pain from burns or other
injuries they were placed on special trains and
trolley cars and rushed to the hospital here.
Several hundred railroad labOrers were on the
SPOT within an hour and by daybreak their
number had been increased to a thousand. It
was a crewsonle task for the railroad men. Not
one whole body was found in the wreck. Either
an arm or a leg or all four limbs were burned
off the trunk and in several cases only portions
Of the trunks we're found. Ten charred bodies
were found under one Pullman car II Is the
belief Of the railroad officials that II the ex2Io
sion had not occurred there probably would
have been no loss Of life.

Anervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge of Mysteries is unfit to care
for children it ruins a child's DISPOSE

trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak
ness, and she is entirely unfit to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.

COTTON.

Here's a story from Saturdays New
York American showing how two men
boosted cotton for dessert at Delmoni-
cos:
"A little luncheon at Delmonicos
in Beaver street, was responsible for
a 2O-point rise in the cotton market
yesterday.
"Col. w. p. Brown, of New Orleans,
who has risen from a grocery clerk
ship to the position of a leader in
the cotton market, and Frank b.
Hayne, scion of one of the Oldest
families in the South, were the chief
members of the little luncheon par
ty When they met yesterday they
compared notes and agreed there was
a pretty good opportunity to make a
little spending money. SO they de-
cided to buy 100000 bales of De-
cember cotton. They took into the
deal several of the other southern
cotton dealers who are now in the city.
Then they adjourned over to the Cot
ton Exchange, and inside of 10 min
utes they had changed the appear
ance of the entire cotton pit. Cotton,
under the personal buying of the
Southern leaders, jumped several
points at a time, and the many nttle
bears got scared and fairly scrambled
over one another in an effort TO cover.
Even the great bear leaders, among
them Theodore H. Price, became Wor-
ried. The other bulls, especially the
so-called Wall Street crowd, Tell III
with the movement, and, before the
Southerners had been able to take
in more than $4,000 bales, the price
of December cotton had advanced 20
points, to $10.77.
Cant. M. w. Page, sheriff of Wake
county, who is a good farmer as Wen
as capable public official, thus talks
about cotton:
az think it has cost something like
eight cents a pound to raise it. You
must remember that labor costs very
