when, near Mentor. Ohio, it suddenly
dashed from the rail through an open
pair of points. Thirty-five people We're
killed and injured, and the 100000 train
reduced 10 scrap iron and most of ii
burnt This is a question which re-
mains unsolved. There is a horrible
suspicion that 1t may have been the
work of a train wrecker.
FOrty-One deaths were caused in Sep
tember, 1901. by one of the most ex-
traordinary railway accidents ever re-
corded
A freight (Or goods train was stand
! ing in a little wayside station at a
place called Essex. This is on the
Great Northern railway of Montana,
L. s. A, and stands high up among the
Rockies. The engine driver left the
stOker alone in the engine. and the
latter, after carefully setting the air
brakes, went to coal up. 1t so hap
pened that the conductor was in the
office getting orders, and the two
brakemen were also off the train
Suddenly, and without any warning
whatever, the heavy train ran away,
and before anything could be done was
tearing down the steep slope eastward
at pace which increased each instant
Seventeen miles further on she hit
a passenger train. The latter was 60
so miles an hour: the freight by that
time was running at 30. The catas-
trOphe was appalling, for the timber
with which the runaway was loaded
took fire, and nearly twenty of the in
jured were burned to death. The only
reason that could be given for the run
away was that the air leaked from the
brakes. vet the latter were in perfect
order just previous to the runaway.
Near Indianapolis there was a similar
accident seven years aeo-fortunately,
without such terrible results. Only
three people were hurt But the driver
of the runaway train and all her crew
SWore that the brakes were full on. and
why their train should have run away
they could not comprehend. II was
some time before the mystery was
solved. Then it was discovered that a
train pulling a car loaded with fish
had passed previously. and drippings
had left the line so greasy that the
wheels Of the following train simply
skidded.

of all the myths which have sprung
Rp around the moon. before Galileo's
telescope revealed another world with
lofty mountains, deer valleys and vast
plains. the oldest and probably the
most familiar to all is that of its HUI
man inhabitants. Every nursery has
heard the story of the man who was
found by Moses gathering sticks on the
Sabbath and condemned to dwell in the
moon till the end Of time
Originating, doubtless, in the superb
cial resemblance of some of the moon
spots to a man with a bundle Of sticks
on his back. it would be handed down
by jealous Sabbatharians as an edify-
Ing warning. 1t has even been referred
TO biblical authority. German nurses
commonly vary the tale by saying that
the offender was given the choice of
burning in the sun or freezing in the
moon, and that he preferred Il lunar
frost 10 a solar furnace. But in the
middle ages. before Lutherans and Pu-
ritans had superimposed the conception
of the Jewish Sabbath upon the Chris
tan Sunday, the crime thus punished
was theft.
1t is possible, however, that Tie man
IL the moon myth may claim an even
remoter antiquity. Primitive man had
tendency to personify those natura!
forces whose laws he could not compre-
bend, his Imagination endowed them
with human force and human feelings
and with superhunlan knowledge and
poweT. Hence the moon acquired a sex
and q gender; in Sanscrit ana all DER
vations except Greek and Latin and
such modern languages as have come
ander the classical influence, il is mas
,cuine And doubtless this is the reason
'chy the legendary woman in the
noon is not nearly so prevalent as the
legendary man"
Be this as it may. II is certain that in
Teutonic fable the moon is inhabited by
Both sexes. For. according to Mr.. Ba-
rin-Gould. the famous nursery rhyme
about Jack and Jill is derived from the
Scandinavian myth of the two children
Hiuki and Bill. who were taken up into
the moon with their pole and bucket as
they were drawing water. They SYM

There is an ancient belief found i'm
some of the writings of the old Egyp-

parted spirits And some of the South
American Indians still regard t as their

OF dead chiefs and braves. But in the
middle ages the moon was generally
looked upon as the seat of hell. and il is
probably this circumstance that led to

fact that he was so anxious to go to Dead
