TRAINS CRASH IN
HEAD ON COLLISION
NORTHEASTERN PASSENGER AND
FREIGHT COME TOGETHER AT
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. HURT.
ENGINEER JUMPS AND BROWNS.

Meridian, Miss, January 19.-(Special.)-
East passenger train No. on the New
Orleans and Northeastern railroad crashed
head-on into an extra freight train at mile
post 1914 at 1885 last night, running sew
eral hours behind time. General Manager
Curran stated at 3 o'clock this morning
that the freight train had overlooked the
passenger entirely. and he charged the
cause of the wreck to that fact.
While crossing trestle 100, just before the
engines came together Engineer Jack
Few Jumped from his cab. seeking safety,
and landed in the waters of the creek be-
low. He was caught in the sand and soft
mud and was drowned before assistance
could reach him. 1t is not believed any
injuries he received in jumping alone
could have caused his death.
Fireman John Carroll of the passenger
train also jumped. and escaped with more
or less serious injuries. Three of the
passengers, according to General Manager
Curran, were slightly injured. none or
them being considered Of more than minor
notice
Engineer Mack Wilson of the freight
and his fireman jumped and both es-
capped injury. The two engines were de-
molished and four freight cars wrecked.
None of the passenger equipment was
seriously injured.

Getting Our Third Teeth.

THE flippant remark OF the drum
mer from Philadelphia, that If there
were any crashing of teeth in the other
world, rs per cent of the gnashing
would be done by artificial teeth made
in America was not far from the
mark" So says H. D. Jones in an arti-
Gle in the February Technical World
Magazine. america leads the world
in the artificial tooth industry and
Philadelphia supplies large percent
age of the total output. False teeth
are shipped from this country to the
remote corners of the earth. They are
to be found in the mouths of Japanese,
Chinese, Hindoos, and even, 1t Is very
likely, assisting in the mastication of
the daily rations of the Zulus of South
Africa. Indeed, it is not beyond the
limit of possibility that cannibal feasts
are conducted with the aid of Ameri-
can made artificial teeth.
THE largest plant in the world for
the making of artificial teeth is to be
found in Philadelphia. The industry
has grown to its present mammoth
proportions within comparatively
short time, for the dentist of old days
made the teeth for his customers in a
room adjoining the operating depart
ment. They were usually ill-fitting,
and, being made from bone or ivory,
would not stand the wear long. The
discovery of a way to make false teeth

MAGAZINE BURBANKING.
Some Interesting Scientific Expert
ments With Leading Periodicals.

From Puck.
Professor Quigglestone, we notice,
has recently completed some very in
teresting experiments in magazine
grating. His endeavors have been
along the lines marked out by Luther
Burbank, but Professor Quigglestone' s
discoveries, we feel confident, will be
far more wide-reaching in their efforts
tan anything the eminent Californian
has yet done. We append the profess
sor's own account of the work he has
accomplished:
Experiment Ii took a copy of st.
Nicholas and immersed it in solution
of salt water and placed with it several
pages from a Frank Merriwell Weekly.
In a few days the ST. Nicholas had be-
come pronounced yellow in color and
several grammatical errors had APP
peared in the letter-press.
Experiment 2.-Taking a copy of
the Theatre Magazine, inserted it be-
tween the leaves of a Ladies' Home
Journal, and placed the two in a very
strong solution of salt water which
| find to be the only liquid in which
results can be obtained). At the end
of two years and three months found
that short paragraph had appeared
in the Ladies' Home Journal to the eff
feet that the tight effects in recent
comic opera were rather pretty. This
was one of the longest and most diff
cult of the eXperiments).

BILL INTRODUCED
IN LEGISLATURE
To Give Fifteenth Street to Rail-
road Com
pany.
the Citizens Of birmingham:

To the Citizens of Birmingham:
As is well known. the Alabama Western
Railway company has taken possession of
Fifteenth street, between First and Sec
ond avenues and closed same to the pub
lie. With the permission of the attorney
general of the state we have filed a bill
in the city court of Birmingham to GUST
the railway company, and have the street
re-opened.
The railway company has had bill
introduced in the legislature (Which bill
we are informed was advertised in some
Ensley paper. which few If any, Birming-
ham people read whereby 1t seeks to
have its taking of the said street legalized.
If this bill is passed the railway company
will thereby get as a gift from the city
property worth about $4,000. We intend
to oppose the passage of this bill. and
think If 1t Is absolutely necessary to
close the street that the city should be
paid what the property is reasonably
worth The money thereby obtained could
well be used to build Il city prison.
While we are particularly Interested In
the matter by reason OF the fact that we
represent property interest in that immo-
date vicinity. yet 1t seems to us that 1t
is matter of sufficient Importance to in
terest the public at large

prevail. and YOU will lend your influence
in opposing the bill, please advise us at
