FIVE FALL INTO GRAVE.
Remarkable Incident That Disturbed
Solemnity of Funeral.

Instead of the accustomed quiet
which prevails at the burial of the
dead, great excitement and fear at
tended the burial the other day of
Michael Serene, prominent merchant
of Westport. when by the collapsing
of a grave the coffin and several per-
sons attending the services were
hurled into small pit.
The final prayer had been said by
the preacher, and the assistant to the
undertaken stepped to the foot Of the
coffin to arrange the rope for Lifting
the coffin into the grave. A = that mo-
ment one of the pallbea. ars acci-
dentally kicked out the erosspiece
that supported the coffin. Tie coffin
quickly descended into the grave, the
body going feet first. The assistant
fastened its descent by tumbling on
it. Several persons rushed to the
edge of the grave, causing the soil to
yield, and in few seconds five rer-
sons were lying in the pit half covered
with dirt.
They were pulled out, the coffin was
dug out and laid fiat, and after the
grave had been rGdug the burial was
completed.-N. Y. Press

WHEN THE FISH HURDLE.
Man Wanted to Be Far Away From
the Danger Spot. :.

OF course at this season the usual
run of fish stories" are going the
rounds. But one relating to the
hurdling prowess Of bass and trout.
which was told in all earnestness the
other night, takes first prize.
Fish always go up stream in the
springtime," said the fisherman, "and
scarcely anything will keep the bass
and trout from getting near the head
waters. have known these two
species to jump over dam eight to
ten feet high and continue their up
stream journey"
What was that you said?" re-
marked a friend, who also claims to
be somewhat of an angler, The man
repeated his assertion that he had
seen fish jump over dams eight to ten
feet high, and as there was no one
present to deny the hurdling abilities
of the fish, the only challenge to his
remarkable statement was a laugh by
all hands.
well, trust will never be on the
top of Niagara falls when one of those
hurdling fish you speak of comes fly
ing through the air and hits me In the
eye," remarked the friend. That
broke up the fish stories for that even
ing, but the man still insists that a
ten-foot dam can be hurdled by either
q bass or trout.

A Prophecy as to Wheat.

Unquestionably those now living
may see the time when in some years
the United States will import wheat
if a surplus can be found anywhere.
AS a rule, however, we may expect
to continue to export grain forever
The Oldest and most densely popu-
lated countries of the world continue
to export grain, and while the world
endures there will always be ex-
changes OF surpluses. AS to our pro-
duction we are probably nearing our
maximum under present methods OF
cultivation. 1t is, however, easily pos
sible to double our output by better
methods of agriculture which we shall
gradually adopt as increasing prices
caused by the pressure Of population
warrant the increased outlay in pro-
duction.

sGoine Some."

Two OF our colored brethren were
engaged In heated argument. The
"retort courteous" without the quail
flying adjective, had been passed and
returned.
Suddenly the larger of the two
moved up aggressively. "Yuh nygah,
youh! If All hit yuh, Aim a-goin' to
knock yuh so fab dat der amt no rail-
road train kin bring yuh back!"
The other looked at him moment
speculatively. Then: "Niggah you
self yuh brack map O. Africa! II An
hit yuh, Aim goin' to knock you SO
fab dat it'll cos eight dollars to SEN
yoh postal card!"
Whereupon the tall one, realizing
that the limit had been reached
passed his "chaw," and peace reigned
again.-Judge.

PROHIBITION FOR GEORGIA.
Gov. Smith Is Pledged to Sign Meas
IRE Which Passed.

Atlanta. Ga.-The -Coving.
ton prohibition bill, passed by the
Georgia senate some days ago, was
adopted by the house this evening by a
vote of I3g to 80. Two amendments
added to the bill by the house will ne
cessitate the bill going back to the
senate for concurrence, of which there
is no doubt, and the bill will then go to
Gov. Hoke Smith for his signature,
which has been practically pledged,
and prohibition will become law In
Georgia.
The bill prohibits the manufacture or
keeping on hand in any place OF busi-
ness. the sale or giving away to induce
business within the State of any liquor
that may produce intoxication. The
new law is to become effective Jan. l.,
1908.
Twenty -one amendments were offer
ed. thirteen of them by the prohibition
forces. Only two were allowed and
both of these were introduced by the
prohibitionists. The anti-prohibition-
lists made their hardest fight to secure
the adoption of an amendment to post
pone until JAN l, 1909, the date when
the bill should become effective. This
was lost, l2S to 40.

FIVE KILLED, TEN INJURED
Explosion of Locomotive Blows Two
Trains to Pieces.


Milan, Tenn.--The engine on Illinois
Central banana special No. sol, north
bound for Chicago, while going at the
rate of sixty miles an hour, exploded at
Sitka. three and half miles south Of
here, at 1910 o'clock tonight, killing
five people and fatally injuring ten
others. Freight train No 696 was
standing on siding just opposite to
the place of the explosion, and its en-
gine was wrecked, and both trains
blown to pieces and set on fire. At this
hour, 1870, thirty cars of perishable
freight are still burning.
No one knows what caused the ex-
plosion, but the supposition is either
too much steam or cold water turned
into the boiler. Train No G96 had
taken the siding to allow train No. sol
the right of way. When exactly oppo
site, without warning, the tremendous
engine on S04 exploded with report
that was heard here. The front ends
of both trains were reduced to splinters
and set on fire.
The track is torn up for hundred
yards or more and will not be cleared
before late tomorrow afternoon.
Special tains we@e run from Milan
and jackson bearing doctors and nurses,
there being twenty of the former car
ried to Sitka.

Another Variety.

The farmer met his son at the sta
ton.
Back from college, eh, boy?" he
drawled.
Yes, dad" replied the youth, as he
lit another cigarette, "and | tell you I
am glad to get back. Been digging up
Greek roots all the season."
The old farmer went over to the
hardware store and bought a grubbing
hoe.
"All right, my boy" he announced
as he handed over the hoe, "yeou can
change yeour exercise during the sum-
mer by digging UP dogwood and sassa-
fras roots"

Case Involving Title to Certain
Property in Porto Rico

Washington.- THE case of the people
of Porto Rico against the Roman Cath
olic Church of was docketed today in the
supreme court of the United States. 1t
involves the right of the church
to control the estates formerly owned
by the Dominican and Franciscan orders
in that island. The lands of these es-
tates were alienated by the action OF
the Spanish government in 1888, but
the Catholic Church claims that the
act was not properly carried into effect.
and it now seeks to have them restored,
claiming that the church is especially
dependent since the United States came
into authority and separated the church
from the state.
The supreme court of Porto Rico de-
cided in favor of the church and or
dered that all the lands and former
converts be restored to lhe church.

Have Trouble
with Your Food -?
||Grape-Nuts
Perfectly Cooked,
Ready TO Serve.
Delicious and Healthful

"The ordinary breakfast cereal
cooked few minutes in half-hearted
way will in time weaken the stomach
of anything short Of an OK.
ANY preparation of wheat or oats
put into water that is below the boil
ing point and cooked as mush is usu-
ally served, remains a pasty, indi-
and unopened. In addition, the stom-
ach of person sensitively constituted
refuses to do anything with the pasty
mass. 1t is sent into the second stom-
ach, the Duodenum, where in conse-
quence of the long time of the first
process of digestion, is fermented and
soured. AS an eminent medical man
pertinently states, the stomachs of half
the people going about the streets are
about in the condition of an old vim
egar barrel.
Intestinal dyspepsia is the direct
consequence of such feeding"
knowledge of these facts and wide
experience in the preparation and use
of cereals brought out the product
known as Grape-Nuts, manufactured
with special reference to having the
nitrogenous and starchy parts of the
grains. of which the food is composed,
perfectly and scientifically cooked at
the factory, ready for immediate use
and therefore not subject to the nra,
hipulations of any cook, good or bad.
The starch of the grains, changed to
grape-sugar, can be seen glstening on
the little granules, and gives forth
delicate sweetish taste, very palatable.
Children and adults obtain fine re.
suits from the use of Grape-Nuts food.

/ A BRIEF ROMANCE
By ELLA RODMAN CHURCH

Afte. suitable pause for these
enjoymehts, Herman Dilkes invited
the young lady to a concert to be
given that very evening at which all
who went might reasonably expect a
musical treat At first Saddle sadly
declined-she had a headache and the
noise would make it worse; then, she
looked in the glass and considered a
little, and finally, she resolved to re-
venge hsaself by wearing her most
becoming things, and looking her very
prettiest. If Mrs. Osbrook, and-and
somebody else were there, she thought
she should make much of Cousin
Herman"
1t was very lovely, bright face
that Mr.. Dilkes glanced down upon
that evening Git was only about on a
level with his shoulder), the excite
ment of crying had left no traces but
a heightened color, and sparkling
eyes; and the coquettish little hat,
with It's white plume and scarlet ber-
ries, was perfectly bewitching.
So thought more than one; for Otho
Lathrop, who had been gazing admir-
ingly at the vision, (although the
vision persisted in not seeing him)
said quite audibly to his sister, as
they were waiting for chance to get
cut, and did not know of two interest
ed listeners near them:
What a starry softness of beauty
there is about that little governess
of yours, Lulu! I'm really thankful
she was put in quarantine for awhile,
or I don't know where I should have

ously.
Her companion speedily cleared a
way and got Sadie out into the fresh
night air without loss of time. When
there, however, he conducted himself
in most unexpected manner, persist
ed in walking round and round the
square, while he poured out his love
and indignation in the same breath; !;
and pleaded humbly for some encour-
agement, or hope of return in the
future.
The poor child was quite bewilder-
ed with all the events of the even
ing, and in a state of undisguised
amazement at the proceedings of Mr..
Dlkes. She could not understand his
having loved her from the first" be-
cause she-well, she was afraid she
had been rather rude to him; for she
was quite sure that she didn't like
him bit, then.
He assured her that this had been
quite an attraction to him; he was

Then Saddle stammeringly declared
that-that she had once thought she
loved some one else; this mcmentous
secret was very unwillingly laid bare,
as though it had not been palpable to
the eyes of her companion all along;
but he was very tender with her,
and frankly admitted that he had fan
cied himself in love with two or
three before he met her.
