A WARNING 70 MOTHERS.

Too much care cannot be used with
small children during the hot weather
of the summer months to guard against
bowel troubles. AS rule it Is only
necessary to give the child a dose of
castor oil to correct any disorder of the
bowels. Do not use any substitute,
but give the old-fashioned castor oil,
and see that 1t is fresh, as rancid oil
nauseates and has tendency to gripe.
If tins does not check the bowels give
Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy and then dose OF
castor oil, and the disease may be
checked in it's incipiency and all dan
ger avoided. The castor oil and this
remedy should be procured at once
and Kept ready for instant use as soon
as the first indication OF any bowel
trouble appears. This is the most sue
cessful treatment known and may be
relied upon with implicit confidence
even in cases of cholera lnfantum. For
sale by all druggists.

FIREMAN ON DOOMED TRAIN SAYS ENGI-
NEER WAS "GREEN"
Alfred Cooper, tie colored fireman
of the ill-fated train, said that Engineer
Reigs was making bis first trip over the
.. road, and that be himself was not ia
millar with the track las it was only the
second time he had been oyer it.
"When we passed the block station
before coming to the bridge we saw the
white board which meant an open
track. The approach to the bridge is a
long stretch of straight-away road bed,
but it is impossible to s>e only short
distance from the bridge wh ether the
draw Is open or not. [ didn't Gee any
signal from the bridge tender. II there
was danger flag or other warning that
the bridge was open I did not see it..
We were within cars length OF the
bridge before either the engineer or
myself saw that the draw was turned.
saw the engineer put on the bre. ..s,
but it seemed to have no effect on Il e
speed OF the train. 1t is my belief that
the break failed 1t was then that
jumped. The train was going fifteen
or twenty miles an hour"
At the Coast Line Offices here 1t was
confirmed that the white sign was
shown for the excursion train, and
properly SO, as the semaphore signals
had reference only to the right OF way
of the train. TIE opening or closing
of the bridge draw has nothing to do
with telegraph orders. 1t was said
that from information at the general
offices the proper signals were given as
to the bridge draw being open. Half
mile from the bridge is big sign on
the road side with the warning "Draw
bridge half mile ahead" The State
law req uires that all trains come to a
stop before crossing draw bridge.
Engineer Reigs possibly tailed to see
this sign.
An official of the line said that Con-
ductor morris had made the statement
that he could not imagine any reason
why the engineer should have rushed
the train to it's doom.
