WISCONSIN PEOPLE HURT.
Seriously injured in Wreck in New
Mexico

DURAN, N. NJ, Feb. Fifteen per-
sons were injured. ,wo probably ia
tally. in wreck of an east bound
Rock Island passenger train four
miles from DURAN Saturday. The
probably fatally hurt are Louis Co
hen of FL Paso and Mrs. f. L. Munda
of Anchor, N. NJ. Guy Wesley and
wife of Sparta, Wis, were among
those seriously hurt.
Two private cars carrying members
of the Chicago Commercial associa-
ton did not leave the track and the
occupants of these cars escaped with
severe shaking up. They assisted the
trainmen in caring for the injured
The wreck was caused by the derail
ment of the locomotive tender. Seven
cars were ditched, rolling down an en-
bankment. The wrecked train was
running slowly at the time of the &C
cident, and this, coupled with the fact
that the travel in the forward cars
was light, doubtless prevented great
loss of life.

why not?" asked the clerk in sur
prise.
See that verse" said the customer.
1T says:
Darling, my heart is all on fire,
For thee l live alone
We'll, my girl would never stand
for that. She's great josher, and she
would give me the merry laugh, and
say, Hot air, hot air.
The clerk finally arranged matters
by detaching the verse and substitute
ing the wording of another valentine,
Il think of you" There" said the
customer, that's all right. It's neat
an nice, and you can bet it's no lie
either. If sent her that other poetry
she'd think was kidding.

ODE TO FEBRUARY FOURTEEN.

Oh, rapture l incline
With an ardor superfine,
Fen gigantic, I opine;
While the chills which down my spine
Now cavort in joy divine,
Like the bluefish in the brine,
Are a sure, unfailing sign
That Dame Fortune, kind, benign,
Sent the order down the line
That my joy be made to shine
Like the sparkle on the wine,
Or the foam-wave on the stein
Oh, a lead-pipe cinch is mine,
Writing rhymes on Valentine.

A RIDDLE.

sent note to pretty Prue
And asked her to be mine,
To be my sweetheart fond and true
Likewise my Valentine.
And then l went to hear her say
The word | longed for, Yes"
But first riddle deep and hard
She asked, and babe me guess.
Why that aforesaid note is like
Policemen? l declare
I'm never good at guessing, and
1t really wasn't fair.
Then an idea dawned on me,
My anger knew no bounds;
| thought her meaning surely was
That it had gone the rounds"
But lest her teasing hurt me,
She whispered low and sweet,
That close to her own loving heart
Shed placed it ION a beat

ABOUT TIM E.

1t is almost time to send her large
red bleeding heart with the strangely
original words, ITO her 1 love-" print
ed on blue silk across the top.
The valentine season is now on, and
lovelorn youths and maidens who still
cling to the custom of sending rose
tinted sentiments and bleeding hearts
are busy at the stationers' selecting
their valentines. In the big cities
the custom of sending valentines has
dropped in allegiance, but in the small
er towns more valentines of the senti-
mental sort are sent than formerly.
In Chicago, unhappily, while fewer
sentimental valentines are sent, fully
as many if not more of the so-calle1
comic valentines which are hideously
cruel things, are bought and sen.
around than ever before.
While there are many novelties in
the sentimental valentines shown by
: the dealers, all the old favorites are
still to be found in the market. While
the sentimental valentines are more
ornate this year, and have more bleed
ing hearts to the square inch tina"
they used to have, it is noticed witt
regret that the valentine poets have
not reformed, but still write the same
dear old doggerel
Novelties of the Year.
The valentines this year are much
larger than usual, some of them being
fully twenty-foU inches high, and the
majority being over twelve inches.
They are still plentifuliy supplied with
silk trimmings and white celluloid
painted with gorgeous colored flowers,
and many of them have centerpiece
well pointed on silk and embossed with
gold.
Among the novelties of this year is
a req celluloid violin of natural size,
pingpong rackets of regulation size,
and a typewriter, full size, on which
sheet of paper is half drawn through,
showing that a tender message has
been half typewriter. 1t runs: My
Dear Girl: This is to say that | hope
syou will be my valentine"
A valentine of pale blue silk has the
form of a parIor lamp and on the

hand painted landscape in the center.
A miniature telephone box is fastened
to one of the trees. Under It is the
following touching verse:
Hurry up, Central, don't be so slow
I'm all in a fiutter, my hearts aglow,
You say you love me, yes, yes;
Do love you, yes, yes.
You ask me whether I'll ever be true.
yes, yes;
Whether whispered in ear or through
the telephone"
Danger Signals and Pingpong.
A large red heart to prove that the
sender's heart is really aglow enough
to be used as danger signal on a
railroad track is a prominent figure,
and the girl who receives this valen-
tine without feeling all in fiutter for
three days is unworthy of any mans
truest affections
Two pingpong rackets in light blue
have the accompanying verse:
"Hearken to my lay of pingpong,
Devotion l vow for ling long;
My heart to you / freely serve,
My love is true will never swerve;
Return me yours, so rules the game,
They happiness will be my aim.
This ragtime love epic ought to melt
heart of stone.
Another heart bigger than the beet
kind that you buy of the butchers
bears this tender message:
Love came to me not long ago.
He spoke name, he whispered low
The name, O, that l cannot tell,
But you can guess, you know it we'll"
Music as Aid to Love.
There are many valentines of red
celluloid in the shape of banjos, quit
ars, and the like. All have a touching
| reference that the fair recipient is
causing the heart of the sender to vi
brate even as her shapely hands can
| wake to sweetest melody the strings
of the instrument One banjo bears
on perfumed red silk this little verse,
which is printed with the notes of the
music:
MY heart on every chord.
Through all the years the same,
Thrills to the one sweet word,
1t breathes thy name"
One large valentine has a pretty
English landscape painted on silk.
In the picture are two extremely nice
| looking girls. There is no verse, and
the recipient is liable to get the i'm
preston that the sender has handed
her gentle insinuation that If she will
will not be his valentine there are
others
Clerks in the stores are now busy
selecting valentines to accord with the
critical tastes of the buyers One
man came into large store last week
and asked for a pretty valentine.
What sort?" asked the clerk.
For a blonde" replied the man.
The clerk brought out several, one
of which the man accepted. When
the package was brought back the
man opened it to take another look at
the valentine. Then he handed II
