The Child
My mother tucks me up in bed
And kisses me good night,
And then | feel as safe and snug
As If twas broad daylight.
But sometimes when the night wind blows
And / hear the thunder peal,
l think of all the flowers outdoors,
And wonder how they feel
How glad l am that Pm a child,
Safe in my little bed,
With mother near if should call,
And fathers roof o'erhead.
The Flower
The cool, dark night has come again,
The time for sweet repose;
gently rock on my long green stem;
My weary petals close.
And when the night is very warm,
And all the earth is dry,
How l rejoice to see the clouds
Come creeping DER the sky!

The first drops of the shower;
And when feel them pelting down,
I'm glad to be fowerl

NEW GAME FOR OUT OF DOORS.

This game is test of skill in hoop
rolling. AS a rule, says the Home
Journal, the players soon grow to be
quite expert in guiding their hoops,
and can perform such feats as ere
turn rolls" and "bouncing hoop" with
great deal of cleverness.
Five pegs or sticks are required in
this game, per dimensions shown in
diagram, and placed according to
measurements shown. Standing at a
distance of fifteen feet from the pegs
each player must endeavor to roll his
hoop through either of the two OPEN
ings, TO left or right of the tall peg.
If they pass through safely, they will
strike the string or rope and rebound,
falling possibly over one of the three

PANAMA RAILWAY
TO BE LOOKED into
South Americans Appeal to
Secretary Taft for Rate
Relief

WASHINGTON, April S.-Secretary
Taft today gave a hearing TO foreign
ministers representing most of the
countries on the west coast OF South
and Central America on the subject of
trade restrictions resulting from alleg-
ed combinations between the Panama
railway company and the Pacific Mail
Steamship company and certain steam
ship lines running southwark from
Panama. There were present besides
the secretary, Minister Cafvo of Costa
Rica, Minister Corea of Nicaragua,
Minister Ignacio Calderon of Bolivia,
Minister Munoz of Guatemala, Minister
Manuel Alarez Calderon of Peru, Min
lister Walker Martinez of Chile and
Charge Wither of Ecuador.
These ministers have collected many
data intended to show the injurious ef-
feet upon direct trade relations be-
tween the United States and the west
coast of South America. Of the existing
traffic arrangements between the Pan
anna railroad company and the steam
ship companies. They stated that by a
system of preferential rates to these
favored steamship companies, the Pam
anna railway company had made II
practically impossible for any other
steamship lines to engage in the carry
ing trade between. the west coast and
the United States. 1t also was stated
that the railroad company favored the
Pacific Mail and the selected Chilean
line not only by an ingenious system
of through bills of lading, which were
discriminatory against other lines, but
as it also controlled the terminal docks
on the isthmus and denied the use of
these on even terms to the other lines,
competitions was impossible. The i'm
mediate result was that a large pro-
portion of the exports of valuable raw
material from the west coast which
should go to the United States was
carried around Cape Horn or through
/ the straits of Magellan to Europe.

FELTON, SAYS ROAD
OBJECTS TO REBATES
Alton President Is Willing to
Stand on Square
Deal

CHICAGO. April 8.-"President
Samuel Spencer of the Southern, in his
speech before the Traffic club of Pitts
burg, has expressed the views of rail-
road men throughout the country"
said S. M. FELTON,, president of the Al
ton railway today.
1.-The railroads are not opposed to
the president in his efforts to put an
end to the evils that may exist, and
Mr.. Spencer'S speech should do a great
deal to remove such a popular miSap-
prehension. There is no one so inter
ested in seeing secret rebates done away
with as are the railroads. If the evils
were widespread 1t would certainly
justify drastic measures. But what
ever may have been the state of affairs
in the early history of transportation,
1t is my sincere belief, based upon per-
sonal experience, that the great ma
jority of the railroads Of the country
today are giving the people square
deal
This fact is borne out by the testi-
mony of the chairman of the inter-
state commerce commission, who in
1903 declared before committee of the
senate that rebates had practically
ceased to exist. 1t is to the interest
of the railroads that they shall never
be revived, and to this end let any Of
tenders be punished. 1t is a significant
thing in this connection, however, that
in the two years since the passage of
the Elkins law no attempt has been
made to enforce it.
Il should like to say, in conclusion.
that when the people realize that the
present movement for federal control
of the rates is leading inevitably to the
adoption of the distance tariff. under
which the farmers of the Atlantic sea-
board with their less productive lands
will be given an advantage over the
farmers of the west, this agitation VIII
cease forever"
President Earring of the Chicago
Milwaukee & st. Paul, and President
b. f. Winchell of the Rock Island eX-
pressed the most hearty Endorsement
Of Mr.. Spencer's remarks. Second
Vice President Harahan of the Illinois
central expressed himself as entirely
y sympathy with Mr.. Spencer's views
sliding:
"All we ask is what President Roose-
Eslt now promises-a square deal"

These Ten Reasons Why" won the
SECOND PRIZE

1. Material Used-One reason why
my mother should use the Buck Range
IN preference TO any other is because
she must readily see that the material
finest. or the stove couldn't give the
splendid results that it does
The Overland the fact of the
oven being so clean and white encour-
ages her 10 bake. and makes her work
more OF pleasure than task
3, Coal and Woodland the great
advantage OF being able to burn both
coal and wood makes 1t fine in sum
mer, as wood can be burned and a
steady fire need not be kept burning.
4. Draughts-I think one good rea-
son is because she can always depend
upon the Buck Range. as its fine plan
of construction prevents the draughtS
failing to draw.
white enameled reservoir does away
with the cleaning out of that horrid
coating which forms In the reservoirs
OF all other stoves.
g. Economical in Use of Fuel-From
the economical standpoint the Buck
Range is sure to win favor. as the
new hot blast Innings make II possible
to save at least 25 per cent of the fuel
consumed by other stoves.
z. The Ash Pan-It is so arranged
that Ii does not scatter the ashes over
the floor when the pan is taken out.
8. Attractive in Appearance-The
exterior finishings on the Buck Range
are far supeffor to those used on any
other stoves and make ii an ornament
in the kitchen.
9. Durability-The Buck Range will
practically last a lifetime. as the
range Is one OF the most substantial
made
10. Price-The moderate price which
makes ii one of the best sellers and
one Of the reasons why there are SO
many sold. HAZEL GOELTZ.

BURST RESERVOIR
KILLS SPANIARDS
Four Hundred Die or Are
Manned and Public Anger
Exceeds Bounds

MADRID, April S.-Four hundred
persons were killed or injured today by
the collapse of a new water reservoir
In course of construction. King Al
fonso was shooting at Carahanchel when
he heard Of the disaster and imme-
diately repaired to the scene. His ar
rival was the signal for ovations from
the crowds. The king was deeply
moved and insisted upon personally SUI
pervising the relief measures. Work
ing parties are removing the debris and
continue to recover mutilated bodies.
workman who was injured says
the collapse was so sudden and COM
plete that Ii was impossible to tell
what happened. The men at work on
the reservoir, however, anticipated
trouble, as fortnight ago three arches
collapsed and cracks developed in four
others.
The public hold the engineers and
contractors responsible. As the day
passed the Indignation and excitement
increased, and serious disorders are
feared. especially on the occasion OF
the funerals of the victims, should the
authorities undertake TO prevent pro-
cessions passing through the center of
the city. Already incipient dernonstra-
tions directed against those held to be
responsible for the disaster are evi-
dencing. Professions of women carry
trict in which the disaster occurred. A
great crowd marched to the center of
the city and forced the merchants to
close their establishments as a sign Of
mourning. The markets are all shut
and business is entirely at a standstill.
No Slight injuries
The work of recovering the dead and
| injured is hampered by enormous
| crowds of angry men and wailing wom-
en-. The estimates of the number of
persons injured are increasing. Nearly
all the injuries are Of a serious nature
The ambulance stations are oyerfiowed
but assistance continues to arrive from
every direction.
The structure which collapsed was a
huge quadrilateral one. 350x150 metres,
built on arches. The disaster was due
| to the weakness of the supporting pill
\ lars. AS the greater part OF the debris
\ is under water, the work of extricating
| the victims is most difficult. Up to
| this time 100 bodies have been recov-
| cred. These were taken Immediately
TO the cemetery In order to prevent
| disturbances. Seventy injured persons
| have been rescued, but 1t Is feared the
remainder of those working in the vi
cinity at the time OF the accident per-
| ished in the crushed masonry or were
asphyxiated.
| Military guards are posted all about
the scene Of the disaster. The govern
ment has authorized the opening of a
relief fund, and, at a meeting of the
cabinet. II was decided to appoint a
mixed civilian and military commission
to establish responsibility for the dis
aster.

Labor Trouble Closes Shops

PORT HURON, Mich, April S.-The
Grand Trunk locomotive shops here were
shut down today. throwing 500 men out of
work. The union machinists here recently
submitted a list OF grievances to the
Grand Trunk officials at Montreal. They
asked an increase of cents an hour In
wages and reduction of the number OF ap-
prentices. A few days ago the machin-
lists received cards asking If they were
satisfied with their present employment
and wages and If they would settle griev-
ances individually with the roads officials
How many men answered the questions
affirmatively is not known. The next de-
velopment was the shutdown today. Two
weeks ago 125 men were laid of at the
same shops to curtail expenses.
