EDITORIAL OPINION
Reoraanizlna the Red cros..


From the Providence Journal
Friends Of the Red Cross who were
distressed by the revelations OF lax
management made IN years gone by
will rejoice in the promising neorgani-
zation OF the society, a branch OF which
was established under favorable au-
spices In Rhode Island yesterday. There
can be no question Of the great possi-
bilties of the Red Cross for good. It's
mission is peaceful IN the midst Of wars
and alarms, and while it depends upon
war for the creation of its greatest
opportunities, its influence IS only bene-
ncent, and the result Of its lahors is
the assuagement OF grief and pain. II
erccts its hospitals in the field. provides
physicians and nurses to take care of
the wounded, pursues its charitable
activities wherever there IS need OF
assistance and comfort for wounded
.or dying men.
Under the plans OF reorganization
competent persons win be employed for
IT'S work, the graduates Of recognized
medical and training schools on whose
discretion and experience reliance may
be placed. In brief. the society Is TO be
conducted on q businessliSe basis. with
some of the highest officials of the
United states Government serving on
It's Central Committee and directing the
work OF its State branches throughout
the land.

AARRlssuRo's HORROR

II HE horror of a catastrophe like
4 that at Harrisburg yesterday
morning beggars description. IL hap-
pened at an hour when many passen-
gers were asleep IN their berths and
when there was no thought OF dam
ger.
Then came the explosion which
shook the whole town and made Of the
two trains in an instant blaokened
twisted mass. Among which the dead
and wounded lay scattered. TO add to
the horrors the wreck took ERE. and the
package Of powder exploding one by
one prevented the willing ones from
going to the rescue.
IL seems that the cars OF the freight
train "buckled" throwing one filled
with blasting powder on the train with
the express. At the impact the ex-
plosion occurred.
We don't care TO venture an opinion
in such matters. but it would seem
possible TO take greater precautions in
shipping high explosives. A year OF
two ago an accident almost similar in
its cause wrecked Greenwood, this
state and injured a number Of pas
sengers. OF course it is necessary tc
transport such articles, but why isn't
IL possible to build cars especially de-
signed for carrying these explosives.
And why isn't Il possible in the pack
ing to make them less liable to be set
on
Certainly when such horrors become
common some method OF prevention
must be devised.

A dog belonging to d. L. Trainer OF
Trainer. Pa. entered the kennels Of the
Lima Hunt Club at Lima. Delaware coun-
ty. Pa. on Tuesday and while there went
into a ht Of hydrophobia and before it
was despatched had killed two of the val
uable fox hounds and bitten twelve
others. with the result that it was neces-
sary to shoot them. The loss to the club
is estimated at $780,
The strange dog was discovered by
John Yarnal, the whipper-in for the
Hunt. He had gone out to the kennels
and was surprised to fnd a strange white
and brown pointer dog in with the fox
hounds and while he was still looking
the pointer took the fit and dashing at
one Of the hounds literally tore it to
pieces.
The whipper-in realized that prompt ac-
tion was necessary and he hastened "a
the home Of Or. Dohan and secured a
gun and upon his return he found that
another of the dogs had been killed. but

ternaI taxes

|ternal taxes. tf
The standpatters win oppose any at
tempt to change the tariff and insist
that the necessary additional revenue
be raised by increasing the tax on
spirits ana tobacco. The revisionists
claim that a reduction Of the tariff
will result in a largely increased reve-
nue. from customs duties. and hence
there will be no necessity for increas-
ing the internal taxes. For some
years the manufacturers of spirits and
tobacco have insisted upon a lower tax
hence they will join hands with the
.revisionists. 1t is probable that they
win advocate a duty on coffee and tea
and this latter proposition is favored
by some members of the Cabinet, as
well as by a number of Congressman.
A gathering that N.. be of great
interest TO the whole country and es-
pecially TO the South viii be held here
on May 3rd. 1t will be the meeting
OF the Southern Industrial Congress"
The Governors OF all the Southern
States have appointed delegates and
matters of great interest will be dis
cussed. Many subjects of vital in

COFFEE HEART.
Very Plain in Some PeopIs.

A great many people go on suffer-
ing from annoying ailments for long
time before they can get their own
consent TO give up the indulgence from
which their trouble arises.
A gentleman in Brooklyn describes
his experience as follows:
Il became satisfied some months ago
that I owed the palpitation of the
heart, from which / suffered almost
daily. TO the use of coffee, q had been
a coffee drinker for 80 years. but I
found it very hard to give up the bev-
.erage.
Il realized that ! must give up the
harmful indulgence in coffee but / felt
the necessity for a hot table drink. and
as tea Is not 10 my liking. I was at a
loss for awhile what to do.
zone day 1 ran across a very sensible
land straightforward presentation OF
the claims Of Postum Food Coffee, and
was so impressed thereby that I con-
cluded to give it a trial. My expert
ence with il was unsatisfactory till /
learned how Il ought TO be prepared
by thorough boiling for not less than
10 or 20 minutes. After learned that
lesson there was no trouble. Postum
Food Coffee proved to be most pala-
table and satisfactory hot beverage,
and / have used it ever since.
"The effect on my health has been
most salutary. 1t has completely cur
ed the heart palpitation from which
used to suffer so much. particularly af-
ter breakfast and ! never have re-
turn Of il except when ! dine or lunch
away from home and am compelled TO
drink the old kind OF coffee because
Postum is not served. / find that

+ ROM the resolutions adopted at
4 Dover yesterday by a gathering
which formed the Delaware Citizens
League. one might be impressed that
this is a reform body. organized 10 pro-

But from the speeches we are inclined
10 think that most OF those present

Now we do not mean 70 underrate

To Make a Pencil Write bv itself.

Take a round box with flat sur
faces (such a box as druggists put
pills in). Through the center of
both lid and box pierce a hole,
through which a well sharpened pen

sealing wax around the pencil to
hold it firmly in place. Twirl the
pencil as one would spin a top, and a

OBEY THE law.

TMMEDIATELY on his arrival at
Il Chicago the President was waited
upon by parties to the labor troubles
In that city. He received a delegation
OF workmen. heard their grievances
and then off-hand laid down some very
homely but necessary truths.
In the frst place he refuses to be
drawn into this fight until the time
comes for Federal interference, and
that will not he until the Mayor and
the Governor acknowledge their I'M
ability to preserve order. Then, Of
course, he win send the government
troops, because such VIII be his duty.
But as some expression OF opinion
was desired ne did not hesitate 20 de-
clare his opinion in abstract terms He
told the delegation that in the en-
deavor to maintain order and enforce
the law MayN Dunne has his fun
sympathy, and that he shall not
leniently regard law-brealsing on the
part of anybody.
The declaration Of the Presidents
position ought to do good in the present
emergency. and &c is especially appro-

tions. For in no spot in the country
