On Saturday Frank Rogers, of Philadel-
phia, was discharged from the Burlington
County Hospital as an imposter and ma
| ligner. He had been at the institution for
week, alleging that he was suffering
from internal injuries and fractured leg,
as the result of being run over by an auto
mobile, near Moorestown. The man said
he was carried to the home of William
Deacon, but members of the family say he
walked there and fell PROSTATE when the
front door was opened Rogers was soon
looked upon with suspicion as his stories
were found to be conflicting. At no time
during his stay at the institution wonld he
permit the physicians to etherize him in
order that his injuries might be ascertain
ed. Before leaving the hospital Rogers
said friend was to get him the position
of elevator man at the Pennsylvania Hos
pital. His actions were peculiar, and his
imposition cannot be explained.

Douglas, Ariz., Nov. 10.-The death
list as a result of the Nacozari explo-
sion is now placed at IA or 15, all Mex
leans, besides John Chisholm, aged l5,
who was riding on the train when the
explosion occurred.
A train on the narrow gauge railway
to the Pilares mine in some way
caught fire. In. the train were two
open cars loaded with explosives, and
the fact that the concentration and a
good part Of the town Of Nacozari was
saved from ruins was due to the
bravery of the Mexican engineer OF
the train, Jesus Garcia. Realizing
that to cut out the burning cars and
escape on the engine would expose the
town to probable destruction, he called
to the rest of the crew to jump and
started to run the train away from the
town. He had taken it about hall
mile when the explosion occurred, ant
he was blown to atoms. 1t is reported
that another member Of the crew stay
ed with him and was killed. The heav,
death list is due to the fact that tn
explosion occurred just as the trail
was passing a section house in whicl

Street Cars Collide
In Seattle Suberb

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 10. - Forty
women and children were injured, 26
of them quite seriously, in a streetcar
accident here, when two speeding cars
crashed into each other in a dense fog
Both cars were smashed up and 70 per
cent of the passengers injured
The accident was due to the foolhar-
dy attempt of the conductor and motor
man of the city bound car to steal a
switch on the outbound car. The track
ran over trestle above the tide flats
and the fog made it impossible for the
men in charge of the cars to see each
other until within a few feet. The
coaches narrowly escaped topling over
into deep water. Several of the victims
may die, among them Motorman II. I.
Hufine, the man who attempted tc
steal the switch.

Manatee's Vegetable Crop.

The account of the shipment of veg
etables from Manatee in three months,
from February I to April 80, is quite
surprising, as given by the Manatee
Record. The total is given at 44,824
crates, and the statement is made that
three-fourths of it was celery. This
indicates that Sanford is to have a
strong rival in Manatee at no distant
day. There is abundant room for all
that can or will be grown in Florida.
The Record says:
Forty-four thousand eight hundred
and twenty-four crates of vegetables
or I4o solid cars
That's the number of crates shipped
from Manatee in ninety days, or from
February 1st to April goth.
OF this number, 34,824 crates were
shipped over the Seaboard, while TO-
600 crates went forward by the boats.
At least three-fourths of the above
was celery, which shows the extent
our truckers are raising this toothsome
vegetable. Had it not been for the
drouth doubtless the above figures
would have been almost doubled
Estimating conservatively, that the
444,824 crates shipped netted the grow
ers an average of $I.5o per crate, it
would mean $67,236oo put in the peck
cts OF the truck growers of Manatee
These figures as to the number of
crates shipped are actual, as they were
obtained from the records of the Sea-
board and Wiggins' wharf
