Once in Italy a card was brought to
Nine. Patti from a man Whoee name
she did not know, but who was SO very
anxious to see her that she allowed
him to be shown into her room. When
the unknown came in he proved to be
a little old man who was quite red
and speeches. with nervousness.
Suddenly Patti noticed smoke com
ing out Of his coat. so without saying
a word she seized a glass OF water and
threw it over him. 1t turned out that
the old man had put his lighted cigar
into his pocket when he entered the
room, and SO had set fire to his coat.
Sir said Nine. Patti, Il have had
many admirers who protested them
selves burning with admiration for
me. but have never before met one
who went SO far as to set himself on
FIRE to prove it."

THIRTY-TWO KILLED.
shriners' Death List Larger Than
First SuppOScfl

While hurrying northward over the
coast line of the Southern Pacific rail-
road Saturday afternoon homeward
bound after week of fraternizing
and fiesta in Los Angeles las Shriners
of Ismalia temple, of Buffalo, and Ra-
jah temple, of Reading, Pa, with their
families and friends, were hurled into
midst of death when their special
train, running fifty miles an hour,
struck a defective switch at Honda,
Cal, a lonely station on the sand
wastes of the Pacific beach, derailing
the train, smashing the coaches into
splinters, killing thirty-two almost in
stanaly and injuring more than q
score of others.
The bodies of twenty-five lie in the
morgues of Santa Barbara and the
more are at San Luis OpispO. The in
jured, many of whom are terribly
hurt and will probably die, are in two
sanitariums at San Luis Obispo.
The wreck occurred exactly at 2:35
o'clock, one hour and forty-five min
utes after the conclave visitors, form
ing a merry party, had spent all the
morning sightseeing in Santa Bar
bara. The statement that the train
was making a terrific speed when it
struck the defective track is borne out
by the fact that 1t covered the sixty
one miles Of curves and crooked track
between Santa Barbara and Honda in
exactly 90 miputeS
There was no waring of the impend-
ing calamity. The special plunged
upon the defective switch and in an
instant the big locomotive, baggage
car, diner and Pullman coupled with
It, were buEed together in huge
heap of wreckage. The engine shot
forward on the broken track, tearing
up the rails and ties and twisting the
huge iron spans into fish hooks. The
baggage car half buried itself in the
sand on the right side Of the locomo-
tive. 1t was smashed almost to kim
ding wood.
The dining car, in which were thir-
ty-two people eating their MONDAY
meal, leaped into the air and was
thrown directly on top of the demol-
ished locomotive. Nearly every per-
son in this coach was instantly killed.
Scores were scalded by steam escaping
from disconnected pipes in the kitchen
Of the diner.

The London Daily Telegraph's st.
Petersburg correspondent reports the
accidental discovery and foiling of the
greatest terrorist plot since the great
Deecmberist conspiracy eighty-two
years ago. The correspondent says
he has a sensational story from two
reliable sources. According to these
versions no fewer than eighty conspir-
ators resolved a couple Of months ago
to assassinate Emperor Nicholas, and
plans were finally fixed for carrying
ters included reserve officers and 9TH
er official and civilians whose loyalty
hitherto had been undoubted. A large
number Of plotters, the correspond
ent says, was necessitated by the elab-
crate precautions adopted nowadays
to protect imperial personages. The
plan was, the correspondent says, to
approach Tsarskoi Selo in distinct
groups and then execute a sudden and
daring attack on the palace. The first

from some means supicion against
them was aroused, the whole thirty
four Of them were arrested at the
Tsarskoi Selo, and documents found
in their possession led to the appre-
hension of the other members Of the
band in st. Petersburg.

Neglecting our Corn to w ork
our Cotton.

We do not want to complain
too much, but from all we can
see and hear our farmers are neg
lecting their corn to work their
cotton. AS our cotton is so late
and as our money must come
from our cotton crop, we can not
expect things 10 be different. -
We are & ad to say good crop of
corn has been planted and we
hope the farmers will be able to
work it well. Do not neglect it
any longer than possible. We CO
not expect to lie, up in our efforts
until our Southern farmers raise
their supply OF corn and then
utilize the sta ks for cattle food.
We want TO cali your &ttention to
this very, significant fact--this
system of working our cotton and
neglecting our corn shows our
dependent position. | growing
cotton exclusively was prof able

The Farmer who is Buying
Meat and Corn on Credit.

We feel an interest in every
phase of farm life and conditions
and high prices are TO our advan-
tage-if we manage we'll but our
sympashy certainly goes out to
the farmer Who has to buy corn
and rneat on credit at the pre-
vailing high prices. 1t is an old
saying "a pound of cotton for a
pound of meat; ;" but at 124 cents
to Is cents as many will have to
pay, the meat keeps ahead of cot
ton, in value. Then think of a
poor man toiling 10 make money
to buy corn at LOO per bushel,
when if he would but learn he
could grow it for 20 cents. 1t is
certainly a sad comment upon
our benighted condition-our
slavery TO an unWlSe SysCeIn.-
Many are breaking away from
this old one-crop system--but we
must keep preaching against and
working until at least a great
majority are raising their own
supplies. Friends, if any of you
are buying corn and meat on
credit, take an oath as "high as
Heaven and as deep as He'll !"

Blood and true breeding are

The best horse is the one with
a kind and tractable disposition,
well broken, and, above all, the
one that is the most serviceable.
Blood, good care and training
are the requisites for producing
a tirst-class horse. The perfect
horse is a product OF all of them.
The most convincing argu-
ment in favor of breeding none

comes when they are placed
upon the market.
Horses which are given con-
