REAR END COLLISION
 OCCURS NEAR PITTSBURG
Captain Pope of Engineers Is Only Man In Battalion to Escape In- Jury-WlIl Return to
 Cleveland.

Plttsburg, March 3.--1n a rear-end col- lision tonight between two special pas senger trains from Cleveland on the Cleveland and Pittsburg railroad. en route to Washington, six men and one woman were killed, and 20 other passengers in jured.
 The accident happened at Clifton sta- tion, eight miles west of Pittsburg, and was caused by the first special stoping to repair hot box. The second train followed so closely that the hagman had not time to get back far enough to pre- vent the collision.
 The first train carried a battalion of the Ohio engineers. It was made up of six coaches and a baggage car The sec ond train with the same number of cars carried the Tippecanoe club of Cleveland, with band and 25 or 30 women.
 Wreckage Takes Fire.
 When the crash came, the passengers in the rear car of the first train were the principal sufferers, and all of the fatalities were in that car. The wreckage took fire from the locomotive and the en- tire first trains and three cars of the second were burned.
 New trains were made up and sent to the scene to bring the dead and in- iured to Pittsburg.
 Maj.rJ. B. McQuisg, wno was In conn mand of the engineers battalion, suf- fered both legs broken at the thigh and will probably die.
 Capt. Charles Pope was the only of ficer of the engineers battalion to escape injury, and he will be in command of the battalion, which will return to Cleveland as soon as a train can be made up for them The Tippecanoe club will con- tlnue It's journey to Washington.
 Impact Was Terrific.
 The engineer of the second train says the block signal showed a green light and his train went ahead at the rate of 45 miles or 50 miles an hour. When the impact came, the engine of the second train ploughed through the rear Pull man in which the officers were and half way Into the tourist car just ahead of 1t.
 Up to midnight the following names have been secured:
 Dead:
 Unidentified man in uniform. Card bears name c. Healt.
 Dr. William Hendricks. surgeon of bat talion of engineers Burned to death.
 The injured are all from Cleveland. Among them are:
 Maj. J. B. McQuisg, both legs broken and otherwise hurt, probably fatally George Reilly, will likely die; James Cray colored cook, internal injuries, will die O. c. Pinney. quartermaster. Collins wood. skull fractured, may die; Floyd Palmer, condition serious.

Tree That Turns to Stone.

There is a tree that grows in Mexico
called the chijol, or stone tree. 1t is
of enormous proportions, both in cir
conference and height. 1t has num-
Der of branches spreading out widely
and carrying leaves of a yellowish
green color. The wood is extremely
fine and easily worked in a green state.
1t is not given to either warping or
splitting. The most remarkable thing
about it Is that after being cut the
wood gets gradually harder, and in the
course Of a few years it is absolutely
petriied whether left in the open air
or buried in the ground. From this
timber houses can be built that would
in few years become completely fire
proof and would last as long as though
built of stone.

THE DANCE I'M SPAIN.

1t Is an Essential Part of the Life of
the People.
Dancing is universal instinct with
Spanish women. The great annual feria
at Seville is largely an orgy of dancing.
AS evening approaches everywhere one
begins to hear the sound of castanets
and to see the gracious movements of
the seguidilla, the universal Andalu-
sian dance.
But the fundamental instincts of the
Spaniard for dancing and the serious
and profound way in which it express
es the temperament of the people are
perhaps shown by nothing else so
much as by the existence of religious
dancing in Spain. At the time of st.
Thomas of Villaneuva, bishop Of Va
lencia, it was customary to dance be-
fore the sacred elements in the church
es of Seville. Toledo, Jerez and Valen-
cia. Religious dancing continued to be
common in Catalonia and in ROussillon
(the most Spanish of the French prov
inces) up to the seventeenth century.
But a real and unique survival of re-
ligiOus dancing is the dance of the
seises in Seville cathedral, when the
chOristers, wearing the same costume
as they were 400 years ago, perform a
dance to the accompaniment of casta-
nets in the space between the high al
tar and the choir.
Dancing is something more than an
amusement in Spain. 1t is part of that
solemn ritual which enters into the
whole life of the people.-Twentieth
Century Home.

shot up the hill at a; pace which foreboded dire
results to both rider and machine. At. the
turns the ffty-horsepower steamer rode ON two

a complete overturn imminent. Except at the
start the big machine set mile a-minute
