on the t1agman sent out by Conductor
/ Remmert of train 325. The flagman,
i whose name is Reed, was sent out 80
minutes before the wreck occurred.
He states that he got as far as the
tunnel. Soon after making this state
ment he disappeared. There was
talk of arresting him if he could be
located. Engineer Packard of train
50 saw no flag. 1t is probable that
the train crew of No. 325 will be
censured for being on the track on
95's time, even after taking the pre-
caution of putting out a flag. The
property loss will be heavy, as the
two engines are wrecked the worst in
the history of the road. Besides this
Eseveral cars are smashed and other
damaged. Help was summoned from
Stafford and Palmer to clear the track.
A sidetrack was moved far enough to
clear the cars, and at 4 O'Clock it was
possible to get by the wreck. The
body of Gregg was pinned in the
wreckage of his engine and a car
He was horribly mutilated. Assist
ant Medical Examiner Jackson viewed
the body, and it was later removed
from the wreck and taken to Brad
ways undertaking rooms. The pas
senger station, after the accident, was
a sight to behold. One window,
casing and all, was sprung in and the
floor was Uttered with broken glass
and debris. A crowd soon gathered
to see the wreckage and there was a
swarm of people at the scene all the
afternoon, many coming from Palmer.
A wrecking train from New London
arrived here about 5 O'Clock and COM
menced the work of clearing the main
track

IN N'pHii'
The Ladies' Cemetery atsJc.Iti III of
HagcrStoWn, Ind, is one Of the UNIQUE
clubs of the country. 1t owe, its ori-
g;n to the failure of the town council
and the male population to car" for the
village cemetery. The ll,tl" rc!nc, cry,
four or five acres in extent, WAS Il
weed patch twelve years ago. Al
though located in a naturally beautiful
spot, the place had been ncglrctcd and
became Il reproach to the town.
The town council was pctitioncd re-
peatedly to appropriate money to keep
the cemetery in repair, but there WAS
no money available, and no action was
taken, says the New York Telegram.
The male citizens aside from holding
meetings and passing resolutions did
nothing.
At last in desperation a few reSolute
women decided to hold a meeting and
ascertain what could be done. Mrs.
Carrie Stonebraker was selected presi-
dent of the Ladies' Cemetery associa-
tion, Miss Belle Savoy secretary and
Mrs. Phoebe Stover treasurer. A doz-
en- women composed the membership.
| The purpose was announced to be the
care of the Hagerstown cemetery.
| Committees were appointed to canvass
the town for subscriptions and enlist
all men who would donate labor to
| clean up the place.
A few dollars We're niggardly given,
but not one man could be found to go
out with the women and work. These
women held another meeting and ad-
| journed to meet the following day at
the cemetery. They carried spades
hoes, scythes, axes and rakcS. Bushes,
brierS and weeds We're attacked with
determined if not sturdy hands.
From day to day the women toiled.
Men came sheepishly to the scene, but
We're not allowed to take their hands
out of their pockets nor lmgcr on the
| premises. 1t took weeks to finish the
work, and every day saw the deter
mined women at their task. They not
only cleared out the weeds and wild
| bushes, but established walks ana
grades laid out drives, squared up the
lots and put in cOrnerStones and pre-
pared a record of the entire cemetery.
Before the first summer was over the
cemetery was transformed into place
of beauty, and its name was changed
to West Lawn. Autumn hucs We're on
the trees when the last stroke was

MANNERCHOR HAS BEEN REVIVED
Singers Will Meet Regularly For
RehearSaIS.

AS a result of the call made in the
local papers last week for a meeting
of the singers of the city at Franz
Burg's place last Friday evening
twelve men were present and it was
decided to revive the old singing society
known as the Mannerchor.
To place the organization in shape
to do effective work, M. A. Endres
was elected leader. Mr.. Endres, who
is now instructor in the school a
St. George, was at one time filling
similar place in the parochial schoo
of this city, and is one of the mos
competent leaders possible to be founC
in the city.
The purpose of the organization
aside from the pleasure the members
will get out OF it will be to prepare for
the Saengerfest which is to be held in
st. Paul in the near future and COM
pete. for some of the prizes that will be
offered.
There are a number Of excellent Ger
man singers in the city and having the
use of all the music which belonged to
the old organization they will be able
to take up the new work with little eX-
pense, and will do effective work. q.
IAN Invitation is; extended to all the
officers and former members of the old
organization to be present at the next
meeting Friday Noy. a. eight p. m. in

DOWN BY THE SEA SUNDAY NIGHT
Domestic Comedy Drama to bePre-
Sented at Turner Theatre.

The faithful ONES who delight in the
domestic comedy drama for their
amusement|willh have something to inter-
est them On next Sunday evening when
'Down by the Sea" will be presented
at the Turner Theatre. This play has
seen three years, of wear amas tear
on the road and as each SEASON. ends,
the more convinced the. management
becomes that they have Something that
the people want and appreciate 5rs tn e
form of play.
'Down by the Sea- is. a home story
that appeals to all: that possess home,
mother, father, sister or. a. wife, as lit
depicts life as it could be. under cir
cumstances that form the plot of the
play, and the situations are such that
if one is sympathetic it will appeal to
him more forcibly than to those that
take less interest in humanity a1 large.
Comedy is also supplied; in large guani-
ties, so that laughs are, interzgajngled
with tears during the enactment Of the
four acts of the play.

Actual Quarters.

The quarter Of a dollar is merely 8
term for complete coin nowadays,
but in the early coinage a quarter
meant quarter Of coin. for in those
times the idea of various valuations
had net gained ground, and the newly
minted coins were marked into quar-
tiers by a cross that the token might
be divided when it was necessary t.
make change This cross, moreover:
was supposed to bring the blessings OF
heaven upon the owner and to avert
i'll fortune, and for long time subse
quent to the coinage of fractional cur
rency the coins were thus marked. a
present only the English form is thus
marked, although the coins of some o:
the Catholic countries bear crosses il
their designs.

The pop factory is now running

For couple of years the factory
