As result Engineer Ray of Massille. is dead, another man is ex. pected to die and a third is in the hos pital seriously injured.
 The Pennsylvania train, while run. ming at full speed. crashed through the engine of freight train on the tracks on the Wheeling and Lake Erie road. which crosses the Pennsylvania's lines here at Eighth street. The passenger engine practically demolished the freight engine, and the whole front part of the engine of the fiier was smashed as well.
 It Is the rule to keep all tracks clear for the eighteen hour train. The sig. nal, it is said, was set against the en- gineer of the freight. Apparently he disobeyed the signal and was killed.

 Engineer c. A. Snyder of the fiier and his fireman, S. A. Welton, were neither of them hurt, though their en. zine, after plunging through the freight engine, continued on for 100 yards, tearing up the track and finally leav' ing the rails altogether.
 The freight train was broken in two just behind the tender, but the passen. ger train, although derailed, remained intact.

Another Attempt on the Life of Ez
 Governor of Moscow.

Another Attempt on the Life of Ex. Governor of Moscow.
 ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 17.-Anoth- CT attempt on the life of Admiral Du- bassof, ex-governor general of Mos COW, was made here, but he escaped with slight injuries.
 The ex-governor general was walk ing along a rather solitary path of the Tauride garden, in which the lower house of parliament is situated, when a young man dressed as workman approached and fired seven shots from a revolver, but missed the admiral ow- ing to his nervousness. The terrorist then turned and ran, with the admiral in pursuit. Seeing that his capture was imminent, Dubassoff's assailant turned and threw a bomb. which he drew from his pocket, at his pursuer. Dubasson was hurled to the ground by the force of the explosion. At that moment watchman ran up and seized the terrorist.
 AS the admiral was rising from the ground second terrorist appeared and threw bomb at the admiral. which passed over his head and did not explode. The second terrorist then fired three shots from a revolver at the admiral and missed him. Dubas- soff then threw himself upon the ter rorist, disarmed him and held the man until he was seized and taken to the nearest police station.
 The attempt on Dubassoff's life is connected with the trials of the Mos COW revolutionists now in progress at Moscow. .... .' f
 Throughout Russian Poland the gov ernment's policy of firmness has been successful in subduing the last of the smoldering sparks of revolution. This result has been accomplished at ter rible cost to the Polish people. the num- Der of victims being estimated at thou sands. Business has become stagnant, the trades and industries are bankrupt. and the masses are dispirited and in state of lamentable poverty.
 at SCLHStOCuONd, WHlCu lS d " piCdi Polish town, seven so called terrorists have been tried by drumhead court martial and executed during the last two days.
 Five terrorists were tried, convicted and shot at Warsaw, as also were three at Sieradz, near Kalisz, two at Tomeszow and one at Lomza. These executions have been going on so con- stantly throughout Poland generally that 1t has become almost superfiuous to repeat the daily chronicle of mili- tary executions. ...
 At Lipkany, Bessarabia, three revo- lutionists upon being arrested shot and killed an official and then fled.
 Three peasants who joined in their pursuit were also killed by the revolu- tionists. Two of the rIvolutionists were shot and killed by officials and the third committed suicide.

NEW YORK, Dec. 17.-In a rather startling address to the members of the Y. M. c. A. yesterday afternoon Dr. Lindsay Parker of St. Peters Episco- pal church referred to the ofYense for which Caruso was convicted and add ed: What Is being done about these miserable creatures, these perverts who call themselves men, who infest the public streets, the cars and public assembly places, contaminating with their glances our women and children? Is 1t not the duty of every true Chris tian to rise up and assist In sweeping these loathsome creatures from our streets?"

GERMANS TALK WAR.
Expect Conflict Between Unit
 ed States and Japan.
WOULD BE CAUSE FOR JOY IN EUROPE
Prominent Subject of Kaiser Will helms Expression Was, "UncIe Sana's Whiskers Need Trim-
 minE'-Japs Unpopular.

E BERLIN, Dec. 1.-The relations be- tween the United States and Japan ex- cite extraordinary interest both in gov ernment and diplomatic circles here. Emperor William discussed the ques- ton with several persons recently and is thoroughly informed regarding Pres ident Roosevelt's personal views on the subject.
 Among German military and naval officers the possibility of a conflict be- tween the United States and Japan has been freely discussed, and the professional views appear to agree that Japan would take the Philippine Islands and place upon the United States the necessity of conducting across the Pacific prolonged sea and land campaigns, which would call forth immense exertions against great natural obstacles.
 It is alleged here that the British ad- miralty has considered theoretically the possibility of war between Japan and the United States as likely to take place within twenty-five years, and some of the British naval men are re- ported to have expressed the belief that the contest would take place within five years.
 In any case, it is certain that several European foreign offices are at present making inquiries regarding the temper of the Japanese people and the govern. ment of Japan.
 The thought of war between Japan and the United States does not fill many European statesmen with horror Japan's defeat of Russia naturally made her unpopular in Europe. while the United States as world power is secretly regarded as an interloper. "Un. cle Sam's whiskers need trimming" was the recent expression of promi- nent German. Russia continues to wave the "yellow peril" banner. Aus. tria has never forgotten Maximilian. France is still Russia's ally. Japan stands in the way of European ad- vancement in the far east. America has its Monroe doctrine. From the standpoints of both sentiment and ma. terial interest, therefore, an armed con fict between Japan and the United States would cause more than one high parsonage to chortle with joy.

Every mother possesses information
which is of vital interest to her young
daughter.
Too often this is never impaired or is
withheld until serious harm has result
ed to the growing girl through her
ignorance of natures mysterious and
wonderful laws and penalties.
Girls over-sensitiveness and modesty
often puzzle their mothers and battle
physicians, as they so often withhold
their confidence from their mothers
and conceal the symptoms which ought
to be told TO their physician at this
critical period.
When girls thoughts become slug
gish. with headache, dizziness or a dis
position to sleep. pains in back or lower
limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude;
when she is a mystery to herself and
