Brush the wall free from dust and
then give it clte coat of hot glue for a
size. Apply with large brush. Al
most any kind of glue will do for this
work. but it should be free from lumns
and not too thick. Next apply one coat
of paint, thinned with turpentine, so
that it will dry without any gloss.
When that coat Is dry firish with one

Married women's Worst FaiIings

Married Women's Worst FafIinEs,
Laziness-It is a married woman,s
first duty 70 do all she can for the
comfort and happiness of her husband
and children. LaZiness leads to sloVen-
Illness and Indifference A woman in
different to the condition of her home
Is a woman any man would do well to
avoid. 1t Is quite impossible for lazy
woman to perform the duties OF her
position satisfactorily.
Neglect of Personal Appearance
There is something coRtemptihls in n
married woman's neglect of personal
appearance Having succeeded In win
ming her husbands love. she inaagines
there is nothing more to be gained by
making the most Of her looks once she
is safely married. A man has every
right to expect that his wife should be
as trim and neat as the maid he wooed
Jealousy.-The woman who gives
way to unreasonable Jealousy risks
losing her husbands love and respect
ia return. Jealousy kills that mutual
trust and confidence without which
marriage is meaningless farce.
Inhospitality.-The woman who OBJ
Jects TO entertaining her husbands
friends at home practically forces him
to seek their society at the club and
elsewhere.
Disloyalty.-The woman who Is in
the habit of discussing her husbands
failings with outsiders, of comparing
him with other peoples husbands, or
Of mentioning his name slightingly, is
disloyal both to him and to herself
The woman who so far loses her dignity
as TO do this deserves to forfeit the re-
spect OF her friends.

Collide ON a Curve.

The scene of the wreck is near mile
post 147, where bluff makes the road
turn sharply. 1t is only a short dis
lance west of the place where passen-
ger train No. 16 and freight train No.
63 collided Oct. 10, 1904, causing the
death OF seven persons and the injury
of many. Conditions at this point are
trying even in normal weather, because
the Santa Fe tracks parallel the Denver
and Rio Grande rails. 1t is easy for
an engineman of the Rio Grande to
suppose that an approaching headlight
is that of a Santa Fe engine. 1t is
impossible for the enginemen to see
each others trains until the locomotives
are within 200 yards of each other.
The three engines were destroyed, but
none of the tourist and standard sleep
ers was demolished.
1t is said that the train dispatcher
originally intended to have No. 8 AID
No. 16 meet at Adobe, one and one-half
miles from the scene Of the wreck. At
Florence the conductor and engineer
| Of No. 16 received orders to meet No.

| The express train, it was said, was to
have received similar orders at Swal-
lows, but in the blizzard the train may
have ran past an order board. No or

FIFTY PERSONS DEAD.
AWFUL RAILROAD WRECK IN
COLORADO.
Head-On Crash ON the Denver and
Rio Grande, Cars Taking Fire and
Many of the Victims Being
Roasted Alive.

In a head-on collision on a curve
near Adobe, COL about . O'Clock Fri
day morning, tie heavy New Mexico
and Colorado express and the Leadville-
Denver local No. 16 of the Denver and
Rio Grande Railroad were turned into
a mass of wreckage and fifty persons
were reported killed. Failure to deliv-
er the train dispatcher's revised orders,
making aSchange in meeting points, was
the direct cause of the disaster.
A binding blizzard prevailed at the
time of the wreck. Fire which envel-
press and mail cars a moment after the
collision added its horrors to the scene.
Many bodies taken from the burning
mass could not be identified, so badly
are they charred. Relief trains were
sent from Pueblo and Florence as soon
as news of the disaster was received by
the railroad authorities, but because of
of the cold, snow and smoke from the
burning wreck the work of the relief
crews was slow.

Engineer Walter Causlet Of the first en-
CINE of the express as he sat in his
cab trying to work the emergency
brakes. Fireman A. II. Smith, in Engi-
neer Causlet's engine, saw the headlight
of No. 16 as the latter rounded the
curve about 200 yards away, rushed to
his engineers side to warn him and
jumped. Engineer William Hollis Of
the local was killed in his cab. His
charred body was recovered and easily
identified. Fireman Suddworth also was
killed.
Little short of marvellous was the
escape from death of Engineer Grant
Kelker and Fireman Harry Hartman,
crew of the second engine of No. 2.
Kelker saw No. 16's headlight and,
opening his air valve to the limit,
shouted to his fireman. Both jumped
from the cab.

Pilot House of Steamer Was Con-
sumed By Flames This
Morning.
Crew and Firemen, Aided By Wind,
Work Valiantly and Prevent
Spread of Fire.
FIRE ORIGINATED FROM THE STOVE

Wind saved the steamer John S.
Hopkins from total destruction by
fire this morning at o'clock. The
fire started in the forward end of the
Texas cabin or pilot house, presum-
ably from the stove, the only fire on
the boat. Some think that sparks

pany's yard set the steamer afire.
The damage will be $4,000 fully
covered by insurance. The personal
effects of the captain and crew were
burned or ruined by water. Much
was thrown overheard in fighting the
fire.
The theory of a spark from the
shore Is Offset by the direction the
wind was blowing, which was on
shore. The wind, blowing away from
the boat, prevented the flames from
spreading rapidly, and the splendid
work of fire company No 2, saved
the boat
Startled by the furious ringing of
