SERIOUS WRECK
IN TACOMA

neer stood with one hand on the wide
open throttle, sending his locomotive
ahead at at tremendous rate, while with
the other he pulled the whistle cord,
sending forth shrieking message of
danger.

GRAFTON, came the runaway monster,
overtaking and smashing into the
wrecking train near Fifteenth street
bridge. A grinding, crashing and split
ting that could be heard for blocks; a
mass of tangled, twisted rails; an en-
CINE battered into a heap of iron scrap;
20 box cars and tiatcars piled in con-
fusion; big hole in the Fifteenth
street bridge, through which plunged
the heavy trucks of three boxcars--
that was the end of the exciting spec
tacular accident which occurred in the
Northern Paicfc yards, and in which,
although great loss was sustained finan
clally, no one was injured.
1t is the most damaging wreck ever
experienced by the Northern Pacific in
this city. A big forco of men were put
to work clearing the track and it is
believed that the track will be in nor
NAL shape in few days.

CURE CONSUMPTION BY COLOR.
White Clothing Recommended for the
Patient

PATIENT
The Practitioner, the favorite organ
of many medical societies in London,
has been making many experiments
which tend to show that color has a
favorable effect on consumption. The
theory is that light has favorable
effect on sufferers from pulmonary
troubles, and that this presumably is
due to the bactericidal action of the
rays. From this it has been inferred
that the clothing of consumptives
should be of such nature as to al
low the light to penetrate with the
least amount of interference. For this
purpose white stuffs are best, and
therefore it is contended that con-
sumptives should wear clothing of
white linen, velvet, cotton or silk.
Next to white, garments of blue and
violet are to be recommended, though
they do not answer the purpose as
we'll as white.

Can Chance Officials.

In Seattle the officials of the mn-

term of two years unless sooner re-

ed in the voters. The plan of removal
is simple. Whenever the constituency
of an elected public official becomes
dissatisfied with his services, no mat
ter for what reason, rs per cent or
the voters, joining in petition to that
effect, may call a special election to
decide whether he shall continue in
the office or whether he shall be sue
ceeded by another candidate. When
such a petition is fled with the city
comptroller the city council must call
a special election for the purpose. and
the election must be held within 80
days from the date Of filing The petit
