Put Dynamite In A Stove.

BRIDGEMAN, MINI, May 4-James Hunter,
a farmer living near here, put some dynamite,
with which he intended to blow out stumps,
in the kitchen stove oven to thaw. He then
forgot about it and went to town.
Shortly afterward an explosion wrecked the
house and killed his wife and two children.
One of the children, boy, was blown through
a window. When Hunter returned home and
found what had resulted from his forgetful-
ness he became violently insane and is now
under restraint.

ROOSEVELT AND RAILROADS.

If anybody has been harboring the
suspicion that President Roosevelt has
taken any backward steps in his views
on the railroad rate proposition. such
suspicion must certainly have been dis
sipated by the presidents utterances at
Raleigh, n. c., Thursday. Not only did
the president reiterate what he has
said heretofore, but he emphasized it
and went still further.
Probably there has never been as
great a concerted movement on the
part of any one body of interests to
effect any special line of legislation as
is the present move of the railroads to
head off President RooseveIt's rate
regulation programme. Bureaus have
been established all over the country to
influence the people. and every posi-
BILE wire will be pulled to keep con-
gress from enacting such a law as the
president desires.
The railroad magnates are arguing
that there is plenty of law now and
that all that is necessary is a proper
enforcement of the present law. Presi-
dent Roosevelt said Thursday: 'Ex-
perience has shown that the present
laws are defective and need amend
ment.'
The president does not say that the
power ought to be given to the inter
state commerce commission to regulate
rates, but that this power should be
given to some administrative body
And he asserts that this body ought to
have the power not only to declare
what is a just rate when any certain
rate is complained of, but that it also
ought to have the power to put its rate
/ into force and keep it in force unless
! the courts should set it aside as I'M
reasonable. That is one of the big
points in the rate regulation question
how to keep the railroads from de

board or commission for three or four

A South Indian correspondent
writes: Recently a very singular re-
port has been abroad, among the wo-
men of this district respecting the
bracelets they wear. The report is to
the effect that certain bracelets are
very dangerous, j. e., those that are
made of Bombay glass and have
small moons and crescents, etc, i'm
bedded in them. It is affirmed that 9
certain small worm bores its way out
of this glass and bites the wearers of
these Inflated bracelets, and that who
ever is bitten by the worm becomes
afflicted with plague or some equally
fatal disease and dies. The worm is
said to be a small one with a very hard
head.
The report arose in Pithapuram
where three women are said to have
died from the bite, and spread with
great rapidity over the whole of the
Godavery district. The result has been
that thousands of these bracelets have
been destroyed during the last few
weeks. The report goes on to say fur
ther that this glass was mined" in q
quarry where there was an idol of q
certain goddess, and that in getting the
glass from the mine the idol was
broken, and as a consequence the god
dess has been very angry and has sent
this disease as a punishment.-India
