Every American business man has
reason to be interested in the leading ar
ticle in the Atlantic for October. Com
mercial Panics, Past and Future" is the
title, and the author is A. d. Noyes
financial editor of the New York Evening
Post. Just at present. when we are riding
on the top wave OF prosperity, IL is well
worth while to take a look ahead An
other panic year will be due before long
Mr.. Noyes believes that II We can find
out the causes that bring about such a
disaster, we can control them.-at least
to some extent. The final conclusion of
his discussion is that
The most convincing explanation of the
20-year interval between commercial
crises is / think, the fact that the period
comprises what may be called a business
generation. Men, for example. who went
through the experience of 1873. and who.
in that. hard school. learned the lesson of
caution and conservatism, would before
1898 rather generally have disappeared
from the scene, retired from active bust
ness, or, at all events surrendered to
younger heads and hands the management
OF private busiEess concerns and corpor-
atoms which they themselves had con-
Quoted 20 years before. 1t Is quite true
that the younger men. under such circum =
stances, have before them not only the
teachings of their older associates, but
the actual record of the previous period
of distress and Of its antecedents. But
invariably, when a time of commercial
crisis is actually approaching. the new
generation of business men will tend to
the argument that certain factors and in
fluences, which were aH-powerful in the
last preceding period OF distress. 90 not
on this occasion appear to operate at all.
The result Of such reasoning, on the
community as whole, is that the taking
of risks, the parting company with con-
sentative methods indulgence In specula-
ton because speculation on such occasions
seems to be sure of success, become gen =
eral in degree not witnessed since the
corresponding year in the previous 20
year period.

rect way, which is done by everyone VINO

The old tedious and tiresome way of
trying to ft glasses is either putting
drops in the eyes. which often causes
BLINDNESS, or by trying on a lot OF
glasses, and asking you; Can you see
these letters?" or do these glasses make
you see better?"
After your optician does a lot OF guess
ing and has your ewes all out OF shape.
you think you have been examined.
Think this over, and you can readily
see that you have been doing your own
examining. and that is no doubt the rea-
son you have had trouble to get glasses
correct

We have produced astonishing results
from bra'1 flag, nervous debility, insom-
MIA, dizzi 1sss, nausea, watery eyes, blurry
vision, and other troubles caused by eye
strain. We have corrected by the use of
glasses cross eyes and astigmat ism, by
our scientific methods of examining.

the optical business for over a quarter of
Of century is the continuous record Of

HON. S. A. MCMEAHS
MAKES A STATEMENT
BELIEVES MR. CAMPBELL WILL
WIN THE NOMINATION IN THE
PRIMARY.

Hon. S. A. McMeans. Chairman Of
Campbell Campaign Committee, gave
out today the following in response to
inquiries:
Notwithstanding the desperate meth
DDS of the opposition and the illness
of Col. Campbell for the past two
weeks, he has steadily grown in
strength at all points in Texas; and
our information, gathered with a view
to accuracy, iustifies the belief that he
will win in the primaries.
East Texas is logically his, and it
is overwhelmingly for him. He will
more than divide West Texas with the
other candidates. He will secure a
substantial plurality in nearly all the
large black land counties. In South
and Southwest Texas he will get more
votes than any one of the opposition
candidates. The facts as we have
gathered them are confirmed by the
public prints, and the conduct of the
other candidates and their supporters.
In one section it is Campbell and Bell;
in another, Campbell and Brooks; in
another Campbell and COlquitt; in
still another, Campbell, Brooks, Col
quit and Bell; but it is Campbell ev-
erywhere.
Mr.. Campbell views the approach of
the primary with a serene confidence,
and believes he has made no mistake
in trusting to the good sense of the
people, the soundness Of the principles
for which he stands, and the loyalty
of those who think with him. He is
rapidly recovering his health.

ENGINEER SAVED PASSENGERS.
His Train Struck Landslide and He
STAYED at Throttle

Running in excess of forty miles an hour,
Lackawanna passenger train No. 919, leav-
ing Binghamton, on the Syracuse DIVISION
at 9 o'clock pm. crashed into a landslide
two miles above Isle on Saturday even
ing, and after leaving the rails, pounded
along the ties for a distance of over 300
feet. Charles Wilson, the engineer, was
slightly hurt.
The absence of fatalities in the accidept
was due to the GOODNESS of the engineer,
who stuck to the throttle when the head
light of the engine showed the mass of
earth on the tracks ahead. Wilson showed
his air brake lever past the emergency
notch, and reversed his engine, but the
momentum of the train was so great that
when it crashed into the landslide every
wheel left the tracks. The collision I'M
seated every passenger in the train two
being hurled the length of the coach How
ever. except for slight contusions none was
hurt.
The landslide was caused by the loosen
ing of gravel and earth after a heavy rain
fall of ten hours. Most of the coaches
were rendered practically useless.

FOUND DYING AT THE THROTTLE
Rock From Precipice Crashed Through
Cab and Struck Engineer.

Fully 300 passengers laughed and chatted
on the West Newton express as Il rushed
along at forty-nile speed within mile of
the Baltimore and Ohio station in Pitts
burg last evening, all unconscious of the
fact that the hand Of a dying engineer, AL
bert French, was fiuttering about the
throttle. When the train d.l not slow up
as it neared the station the fireman leaped
across the cab to learn the cause. He
found his chief dying I'm his seat. His
hand was working vainly with the lever.
while a great rock, which had rolled down
the hillside and broke through the roof OF
the cab and crushed his head. lay at his
feet
The Baltimore and Ohio for n couple OF
miles as it nears the end Of the line in
Pittsburg skirts the foot of a 200-foot preci-
pice. 1t was from this precipice that the
rock fell.
The fireman stopped the train and then
ran it slowly into the station. French was
taken to the Mercy Hospital and died an
hour later without regaining consciousness.
Had the fireman not discovered the
tragedy in time the train would have
plunged through the bumper blocks and
out through the depot to the river shore
below.

possibility of President Roosevelt and EN-
peror William exchanging visits. Prof
Wirth has connections with the foreign Of
fee. and his suggestions therefore have
certain interest. Representative Nicholas
Longworth and Mrs. Longworth are expect
ed in Berlin in May" he says. This is
not the first time that the President s
daughter will have represented the United
States systematically, Her journey to east
Asia had official character. which was ex-
pressed by her accompanying member OF
the cabinet. President Roosevelt himself
Is not permitted to leave American terri.
tory, but as an American warship Is also
American territory. as President Roosevelt
has already proved In practice, why cannot
the President give another example by vis-
iting Kiel? Emperor William could then
choose return visit of the same form,
going on a warship to waters near Wash
ington. These visits would add much to
the mutual friendship of the two countries. :"
