VALUE OF COOL HEAD.
seIf-Possession One of the Most Use
ful Of All Traits.

49, ~ ~ tFdiN1s
The cool head conduces to a suc-
cessful meeting Of emergencies with a
feeling that everything Is going to
come out all right. The feeling Of
quiet, self-control in itself makes one
the better able to work toward the
good result.
To mother this self-possession is
invaluable. In a large family small
events calculated to upset the domes-
tic machinery constantly occur. To
the mother it seems TO be a law Of
nature that children should continu-
ally have hairbreadth escapes and
come out within an inch of their lives.
But is is equally a law Of nature
that they SHOULD escape. And when
ever the critical moment arrives in
her own life or in the life Of another,
It is important for a woman TO remem-
Der that the worst thing she can do
at that moment is to lose her head;
the best thing she can do is to keep
her mind in control. To keep her
head cool means that she is q help
instead Of hindrance, an assistance
instead Of drag.
In an emergency # is better to
seem heartless than to be inefficient
Better the one person who stands
coolly by the sufferer and sees the
way to help him than the ten persons
who are ready to cry out and faint and
shed tears over his calamities and
pains. Affection and sympathy are
sometimes best proved by ignoring
them, particularly when the moment
arrives for action. not tears.-Philadel-

Cause of Headaches.

AS is naturally to be expected, the
commonest cause of headaches is
some nervous disturbance or weak
ness irritated by some experience
which in prime condition OF health
would produce no perceptible effect
The common causes are therefore of
two classes. namely. those which pre-
viously exist within the body and
those which exist outside of It and ex-
cite the inner or latent evils into &C
ton.

United States Cruiser Aground.

Toxic, Oct. 2.-The japanese steamer
Taiwan reports that the United States
cruiser Cincinnati is aground on Sine
Island, off the Bungo coast. The Tai
wan passed the cruiser there at one
O'Clock this morning. The cruiser was
flying signals for assistance. She ap.
peared to be hard aground and seemed
to have been in that position for some
time.
The commander of the Taiwan reported
the matter at Moi few hours after
sighting the cruiser, and stated that her
position appeared to be perilous.
The Taiwan is a small vessel, and was
unable to offer assistance. 1t is probable
that japanese assistance will be offered
to the stranded cruiser, unless the Ameri-
can squadron can be communicated with.
The officers of the vessel had apparently
given up hope of getting her off by her
own steam. The Cincinnati is one OF
the largest American cruisers on the
Asiatic station. She was on her way
from Yokohama to Shanghai. 1t is be-
lieved she went aground some time dur
ing the night. The Cincinnati is 5000
ton protected cruiser, 300 feet in length
on the waterline and forty feet of beam.
She was built at the Brooklyn navy yard
and was launched in 1892. She was en-
tirely rebuilt in 1902, and is regarded as
one of the finest warships Of her class
in she navy. She has had two serians
mishaps, as in 1894, she struck a sub
merged rock near Execution Rock
lightship, and in 1898, ran on rock of
Santiago.
London, Oct. "A dispatch to LlOyds
from Moi, Japan, says that the Ameri-
can cruiser Cincinnati, which went
aground on Sine Island this morning,
was foated, and has arrived there. The
first attempts to remove the cruiser were
Intellectual, and lighters were sent to her
assistance.

vice to urge people at this season of the

more prompt and satisfactory results are
obtained when taken as soon as a cold is
contracted and before it has become set

done by keeping the remedy at hand

William A. Haynes, who a number of
years ago, lived in Richmond, Va, in
connection with the suit case mystery,
on the strength of the incoherept story
of his friend, Samuel A. WingfeId, has
not, the police assert, placed them any
nearer solution, but has caused them
the loss of much valuable time and end
less comment over the hysterical manner
in which they apprehended the victim of
an over loquaciOus friend. Haynes will
be released today.
William A. Haynes, was not identi-
fed this morning by Joseph Berkman,

MONDAY EVENING. OCT. 2. 1905.

THE EFFORTS to bring about an anti
Tammany fusion of the republican party,
Citizens Union aud the Municipal
Ownership League of New York have
ended after fmany futile attempts to
agree on candidates. When the Citi-
zens' Union finally decided to insist on
the Endorsement of District Attorney
Jerome, who would DO. promise to re-
fuse a Tammany Endorsement, the re-
pubicans decided to 60 it alone with a
municipal ownership plank in their
platform. The independent organization
will confine its efforts to assisting in the
reelection of Jerome. The Tammany
bugaboo has ceased TO scare intelligent
men in New York and though there may
be some corruption in that organization,
as there is in others, il gives New York
as good government as that city ever has
had.

children with an axe, after which she
placed their bodies on bed, saturated
it with coal oil and set fire to it. She
then hacked her throat with knife and
threw herself on the burning bed.
Neighbors rescued her, but she was so
badly burned that she died soon after
she had made a confession. The eldest
child was nine years of age, and the
youngest a baby in arms. Late that
night Clarence E. Markham, husband
and father of the victims of the tragedy,
committed suicide by shooting. The
funerals of the victims took place yes
terday. They were buried in a
single grave. Two plain black cloth
collins were arranged along with the
seven little white caskets containing the
bodies of their children. Following the
simple services strangers buried the fam
lily in one large grave. The only rela-
tives were two sisters OF the woman.
