Farther downtown in the coy draw
ing-room of a house in side street
east of the avenue. two other persons
were talking. A ford and profusely
freckled young Englishman spoke pro-
testingly from the hearth-rug to a
woman who had the air of knowing
emphatically better.

know, really, | can't take a curate with
me, you know, and send up word won't

"Nonsense." replied the lady. unim-

We are next constrained TO glance
at strong man bowed in the hnrt of
a great grief. Horace Milbrey sits
alone in his gloomy, high-ceilinged
library. His attire is immaculate. His
slender. delicate hands are beautifully
white. The sensitive lines of his sne
face tell of the strain under which he
labors.

REPAIRING BRAIN.

M|SSLOTzE KILLEDRERCHUM
Duel Over Love Affair Hinted At,
But Denied.
Geology Class at vermiliion, s. D,
Were in Camp Target Prae-
tiee, Say Friends.

Vermilion. s. D.-As the result of a
mysterious shooting affair. which &C.
Cured in the dense woods across the
Missouri River from here, Miss Lillian
Young, daughter of State Senator War
rem Young. is dead at Sioux City, and
Miss Hazel Lotze, daughter Of G. A.
LotZe, of this city. who fired the fatal
shot, is dangerously ill from proStra-
ton.
Both young women have been stu
dents at the State university here. 1t
was twenty -four hours after the shoot
ing occurred that those who saw il
were induced to talk about il. They al:
told the same ~story-that it was acct
dental.
In the meantime it had been asserted
very positively that the young women
had fought a duel to settle some differ
ences over love affairs. This story il
forcibly denied by everybody interest
| ed, but it continues to be repeated.
Only three besides the two youna
ome saw the shooting. The univer
sity authorities are deeply grieved over
the matter, and are anxious that no
more be said about it, so it is likely
there will be no further Investigation.
1t was a jolly crowd of students,
composing the class in geology, that
boarded the ferry and crossed to the
Nebraska side. in company with Pro.
lessor E. c. perisso, to study rock for
nation.
The camp was pitched in a pretty

dents prepared the meal a few others
strolled off into the woods. These were
Miss Young, Miss Lotze, Miss Lillian
Stafford, of Flandreau. S. D.. daughter
Of a regent of the university; Thomas
Scrogss, of Beresford, S. D., and Clar-
ence H. Nee, of C%entreville, S. D.
After awhile those in the camp heard
a number of shots and il scream. Run
ming to the scene they found Miss
Young on the ground with a bullet
wound in her side. She was hurriedly
taken to Vermillion and then to Sioux
City, where an operation was per-
formed, which revealed that the bullet
had penetrated the intestineS.
The students said the party had been
shooting, using a tree as a target, with
a 80 calibre revolver owned by Nee.
Several shots had been fired and it
came Miss Lotze's turn to try the pis-
toll.
She fired twice and presumably
thought the cartridges had all been eX-
ploded. At all events she turned to-
ward Miss Young, who was a few
yards away picking violets, and pulled
the trigger.
Miss Young fell with a cry of pain.
She tried to walk, but fell. and then
she was put on an im%provised stretcher
and carried to the ferry.
When it was announced that Miss
Young was dead there were few dry
eyes among the students, as she was
exceedingly popular.

New Glass Making Methods.

A departure in glass making meth
DDS threatens almost a revolution in
the industry, according to Consul Book,
of Nuremberg.
Should it really possess the advan-
tages claimedAit would cause serious
damage to the blowing glass plate in
dustry in this district, where three
fourths" glass plates are chiefly manu-
featured. So far two methods have
been employed in the manufacture of
crystal plate glass and mirror and win
dow glass, namely, that of casting and
blowing. The new third method is the
invention of Mr.. Fourcault, a Belgian,
who has sold his patent to a European
syndicate Of plate glass manufacturers
for $952, 600. This syndicate consists Of
German, French and Belgian manufac-
turers and one Bohemian factory.
Until now in the making of window
glass the molten substance has been
blown into cylinders by glass makers
pipes and subsequently f%attened, while
in the making of plate glass the viscid
mass was cast from the pots and
rolled. The new invention draws the
molten substance from the pot and
conducts it between rollers lying side
by side. Seventeen pairs of these
rollers are built up towerlike above the

"Sad" Children.

A large amount of So-called naughtl-
ness among children may be accounted
flor upon grounds which quite exclude
8the desirability of punishment for its
correction, says a writer in the Lon
don Lancet. 1t may be due to the
fact that the child has had insult
ficient sleep or is overtired after a
long days excitement.
Children may be restless or FESTIVE as
the direct result Of being underlined;
they may have been confined at home
for the whole day owing to the in
clemency of the weather. and as q
consequence the only apparent outlet
for their restrained physical energy is
found by annoying those who have
charge Of them.
There are. also some cases in which
an incipient physical OF mental disor-
der may manifest itself by symptoms
which very strongly resemble willfu!
perversity unless the possibility of the
onset Of an illness is borne in mind.
It is notorious that ill-timed punish
ment in these cases at times has pre-
cipitated q sever attack. Suffering
and shyness are also likely to be ag.
gravated by being noticed. A deaf
child is often inattentive and has been
occasionally classed among the mental
ly defective.
It has been said that many children
are punished for the faults of their
teachers; this is undoubtedly true when
such faults exhibit themselves as a
continually close atmosphere in the
schoolroom, or a prolonged strained Il
cramped attitude of the pupils body
while he is seated at work. Frequent
periods of exercise in the open air are
essential in order to arouse the cir
culation and to stimulate the mind.

~combated.-WaShington Times.

FATAL RAILROAD WRECK
Fast Trains Collide on the Pennsyl
yania Near Altoona,
misunderstanding of Orders and a Freight
Blockade Eesponsible FOR Smash-Up
Ten Killed-Many Injured.

Altoona, Pa.-Chicago mail train No.
is, eastbound, and the Chicago and
st. Louis Express No. 81, w%estbound,
cOllided while running Oh the Penn
sylvania Railroad at full speed, eigh-
teen miles west of this city, at II
o'clock p. IN. Ten persons were killed
and many were injured.
The collision was indirectly due to q
freight smash on the middle division
at S.24 o'clock, when twenty-seven
loaded cars Of an eastbound fright
were wrecked at Union Furnace, about
twenty miles south Of here, blocking
all tracks.
In order to avoid detention Of trains
! passenger traffic vas sent over the
| Petersburg branch. The Pennsylvania
| Special, the eighteen hour flyer, west
bound, was the first train to pass
around and make the trip in safety.
No. 21, the st. Louis and Chicago EX-
press, was the next train to be sent
westbound over the branch. 1t co.,
lided with No. IS, the Chicago Mail,
going in an opposite direction, OH Il
single track, near Glover Creek juno
ton.
Both locomotives were wrecked. Six
cars on No. 1S-ive mail cars and q
c~oach-were caught in the smashup.
The accident appears to have result
ed from a misunderstanding of orders
on the part Of the train crew OF the
Chicago and st. Louis Express.
Physicians from Altoona, Hunting
don and Williamsburg were sent to the
scene to render aid to the injured, who
were brought to the Altoona Hospital.
The dead are:

The official report Of the wreck
shows that twenty-five passengers
were in the coach which was directly
behind the engine Of the eastbound
train. Four were killed by the tele-
scoping Of the coach by the postal car
Immediately in its rear, and the other
| eighteen were hurt, fortunately some
of them but slightly. The postal car
contained seven clerks. The front end
was mashed in and the roof torn off
by the roof Of the coach. The front
Of the car fell to the track and the
rear raised, pitching the clerks into the

New York City.-E. H. Hartman ar
rived here. having completed at nifty

of seventy-one hours and twenty-seven
minutes.

future of the stricken city. 1t will be
rebuilt. he said, was even now rising
from the ashes. and any sum that was
actually needed, ven up to S1OO,0OO,-
900, could be raised. The work of per-
manent rehabilitation, however, would
be slow.
Asked about the New York syndicate
which has been organized to raise
500, 600, 900 for San Francisco, Mr..
Hartman replied:
81 don't know anything about that
movement. 1 believe, though, that
500, O0O, 900 could be raised for the
stricken city If it was shown that the
money was actually needed. 1t would
not be easy to raise such q fund unless
the necessity were demonstrated.
There is no question about the solv-
ency Of San Francisco. The per capita
debt there is very small, and even if
the burned district were not rebuilt,
every obligation could be met.
The food supply is becoming eS-
hausted. They will soon have to draw
on the relief fund. UP to the present
it has been used to re-eQuip profess
sional men-lawyers, for instance, who
have lost their libraries. Such men
are not being indiscriminately aided,
but all who apply for aid receive it to
a reasonable extent. For a long time
100000 or more persons will have to be

Interatate Commerce Commission Reports
100 Killed in Three Months.

"
Interatate Commerce Commission Reports
HOO Killed in Three Months.
Washington, D. Can almost un-
precedented number Of casualties to
railroad employees throughout the coun-
try occurred during the last three
months of last year, according to the
accident bulletin for that period issued
by the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion. The number of persons killed Ill
train accidents during the quarter as
shown in reports made by the railroad
companies to the commission under the
Accident law was 800, and Of injured
3797. Accidents of other kinds, includ-
ing those sustained by employees while
at work and by passengers getting on
or off the cars, ETC., bring the total
number of casualties up to 1S,221-11O9
killed and 17,119 injured.
The reports deaf only with passen-
gers and employees on duty and take
no account Of the hundreds killed and
MANNED at crossings, etc.
There were 2O77 collisions and 1915
derailments, of which 267 collisions
and 1873 derailments affected passenger
trains. The damale to cars, engines
and roadways by these accidents
amounted to $~2,S17,294.
The Commerce Commission points
out that the list Of casualties for the
quarter is larger in nearly every item
than during the preceding quarter. 1t
attributes this partly to the increase i'll
traffic, Lut largely to the fact thai new
and untried men were entrusted with
dangerous duties, and that employees
of all classes were kept on duty for
many hours beyond a reasonable day.

The Farmer and the Auto.

y Some years ago. soon after auto
mobiles began to be used throughout
the United States, an agent for a New
York house turned up at a village in
Central New York. He expatiated to
an old farmer upon the virtues OF the
new machine, dwelling upon what a
time saver it was, and withal how
fashionable it would be for the farmer
to be able to ride down to the village
on one of the new-fangled machines
whenever he wanted to.
"Why," said the salesman, "when'
ever you go-to the post office, bank or
store, everybody will stop and stare
at Farmer Wilson, and pretty soon
you'll be the most talked Of mar IN
the whole country"
The farmer thought he needed a COW
more than an auto, but finally agreed
to let the agent bring over, n of his
machines. When the agent returned
with it some days later the farmer
took him in charge and carried him out
to the lot and showed him a fine Jersey
cow.
"That's what I bought with the
money 1 saved up for you" said the
farmer. And without waiting for the
agent 10 recover from his surprise he
went on: 81 lowed I needed the COW
mon I Gid the machine, an there
che is. Amt she a beaut?'
When the agent recovered his breath
he said:
you'll look funny riding that cow to
town, won't YOU"
"Ya-as," drawled out the old farmer;
shut I'd look a darned sight funnier
tryin' to milk an Observation-Disclosures
