TRAIN RAN INTO WOODS.
Switch Was Left Open, and No One
Knows Why.

The cannon ball' train, bound
from Richmond to Norfolk, Va, ran
through an open switch at Juniper
siding. Seven persons were injured
in the wreck; no one was killed. But
for the vigilance of Mark Noble, en-
gineer of the train, who was watching
for just such a thing as an open
switch, which caused the wreck, prob
ably many of the fifty or sixty passen-
gers aboard would have been killed.
The train was running at a rate of Is
or so miles an hour when Engineer
Noble spied an open switch thirty
yards away. Immediately he threw
on his emergency breaks, reducing the
speed to about 30 miles by the time
the engine struck the switch. The en-
gin jumped the track, then jumped an
adjoining ditch and ran headlong in
to neighboring woods before it could
be stopped.
The engineer was picked up twenty
feet ahead of the engine. The train
careened, but did not turn over and
was not burned, as first reported.

such substances as supplying the ele-
ments entering into crops, or else he
finds the yield growing small by de-
grees and beautifully less. The bus
mess man makes frequent deposits IN
the banks so his account won't be eX-
hausted. Apply this principle to the
body and the secret of mental and
physical vigor is partly solved, as all
that remains is to know how to secure
the needed reconstructive elements in
their most assimilable and potent
form.
One may live at high pressure, all
the systematic drafts may be open,
and a great deal of energy consumed,
yet so long as compromising supply
of new energy is furnished there can
be no exhaustion. 1.-The mill cannot
grind with water that is past, but If
there is a plentiful supply above the
wheel it can grind increasingly. The
body cannot accomplish with expend-
ed energy, but if abundant energy be
supplied from digested food or
through specially prepared means in
a more assimilable form as Dilling-
hams Plant Juice, then no exhaustion
will occur, even if the expenditure is
great.
In Dillingham's Plant Juice the
great vitalizer that vitalizes, one may
have Just such a preparation. 1t will
do ali and more than has here been
suggested. 1t makes defective nerves
whole, weak nerves strong, sick nerves
well. All subnormal or below-natural
conditions of body and mind yield to
it's vivifying influence. Itreconstructs,
renews, restores, rejuvinates, satisfies
and sustains. 1t feeds starving or
exhausted brain and nerve cells and
through vastly increased nerve force

SACRED CATTLE FOR TEXAS
NEW UNDERTAKING BY DEPART
MENT OF AGRICULTURE.
Cattle to BE Imported from India for
Breeding Purposes. Must Have
Clean Bills of Health.


The department of agriculture at
Washington has undertaken to SUPER
intend the Importation into this coun-
try of several specimens of the sacred
cattle of India for breeding purposes.
A representative of the department has
gone to India with a wealthy Texas
cattle man for the purpose of securing
a number of bulls and COWS to be
brought to this country. For some
years, it seems, experiments have been
in progress looking to the production
of breed of cattle immune to what is
called Texas cattle fever. 1t has been
found, so it is reported, that the sa-
cred cattle of India are immune; and
not only that, but that where one
eighth of the blood of the Indian cat
tie is intermingled with the native
stock immunity is secured. The Texas
fever, as if quite generally known, is
caused by tick, for the elimination
of which considerable appropriations
have been made by both the general
government and the state of Texas. A
bulletin recently issued by the depart
ment of agriculture went into details
with respect to the war on the tick,
reaching the conclusion that the best
preventive was the introduction of
blood in cattle that was noxious to the
pest
The expense of the cattle experiment,
it appears, is to be borne by private
parties, yet it seems that the govern
ment might better devote a few hun
dreds or even thousands of dollars to
such an investigation as this than to
spend hundreds of thousands of dol
lars on the distribution of worthless
seeds for political purposes. A few
packages of seeds to a farmer are
worth at best only few cents, while
the discovery of a method by which
the cattle fever could be eradicated
would be worth immense sums of mon
ey to the farming and cattle raising
interests, and other interests would
share in the benefits.
But while the agricultural depart
ment has agreed to take charge of the
Importation of the sacred cattle it is
not going to take chances on any new
disease being brought in by them.
Every head of the cattle will be sub
iected to the most rigid inspection be-
fore shipment, and only bulls and COWS
with clean bills of health will be per-
mitted to enter the United States. The
experiment will be followed with deep
interest by farmers and others.
