cases. The great fecundlty OF the hog
and the fact that his meat always
brings big price makes him an easy

thrown from the track by broken
rail and plunged down an embank-

injured passengers were pinned in
the wreckage and slowly burned to
death, while others met death in a
more merciful form in the waters of
the lake.
When the train struck the broken
rail five tourist cars near the middle
of the train broke loose and rolled
down the embankment. One of the
cars was entirely submerged. The
other four stopped closer to the shore
and were only partly covered by
water The latter caught fire and
the passengers imprisoned in mass
of wreckage were burned to death,
