The press goes on TO say that the
representative then read afhdavits from
Dr. John J. Jones Of Wilmington to the
effect that he was called in to see @ child
suffering with diphtheria. and after
diagnosing She case was not allowed to
treat the child. Tho child was treated by
Christian Scientists and died in a few
days, DIR. Jones swears."
DIR. Jones was called upon for the
names of the persons referred to In his
sworn statement and he readily gave
them. lie was told THAT the child did not
have Christian Science treatment nor did
Christian Science have anything to do
with the case. As he has not withdrawn
his statement we. with regret, feel Obliged
to publicly refute the allegation and desire
to say that the father of the child has
written "a letter denying the truth OF the
statements. Both ne and the mother have
declared that they never have been be-
LEVERS in Christian Science and have
never had Christian Science treBtment for
their children, or used il themselves. Fur
thermore the writer holds In his possession
an affidavit of a relative containing the
following statement: II wish TO swear
that the child did not die under Chris

father or mother Of the child Interested

BOLT WRECKS IS HOUR TRAIN
Track on Steel Ties Spreads Un-
der Pennsylvania R. R. Flyer.
Crowded Train Rolls Down Embank-
ment and Crashes Through Ice on
Conemaugh River-None Killed.

Pittsburg, Pa.-The Pennsylvania
special, the famous New York Chi
cago eighteen-hour train of the Penn.
sylvania Railroad, left the tracks at
Mineral Point, near Johnstown, at
] 11.45 o'clock p. M, rolled down sixty
| feet of embankment and crashed
through the almost solid ice of the
Conemaugh River, the stream that
took such a tragic part in the flood of
almost two decades ago
| The remarkable feature is that not
| one of the more than 100 persons on
the train was killed outright. Fifty
| of the injured are at the hospitals in
this city, Altoona and Johnstown.
1t was the most unexpected thing
that happened.
A new piece of track had been put
in at this point short time ago In
stead of the ordinary wood crossties
the track was supported on steel ties,
to which the rails are bolted. One of
these bolts, the railroad men say,
gave way, the rails spread and the
train, running around curve at
sixty miles an hour to make up lost
W
When the heavy train went over
the embankment everything went be-
fore it, including the telegraph poles.
For that region it was hours before
the outside world could be commune
Gated with and assistance sent to the
injured
In the meantime they were hud-
died together, many of them devoid
of any but night clothing, others with
what clothing they did have soaked
with the icy waters of the Cone
maugh, and still others with blood
from their wounds congealing over
their bodies.
1t did not seem out of place that
when assistance did arrive and spe-
cial train was started for Pittsburg
early next morning with the unhurt
and those of the injured who were
able to continue on their journey the
Rev. Edgar Cope, rector of st. Sim
cons Episcopal Church, of Philadel-
phia, assembled all together in one
car and there conducted one of the
most solemn services of thanksgiving
that has ever been held. Most of the
passengers were still without clothing
and were wrapped in blankets and
bedclothes.
Let us give thanks to the Lord
our God that our lives have been
spared" said the pastor as he opened
the brief service. "Our presence here
in the flesh at this time is nothing
more than an act of providence. So
let us utter thanks to Him who has
permitted us to live
Then down on their knees went the
survivors and the fervent amen" of
the clergyman was heartily joined in
by every person in the car just as the
Union Station in this city was reached.

FORMAL NOTICE OF WAR.
Honduras Says Nicaragua Has In
vaded Its Territory.

Washington, D. C.-The Minister
given notice that negotiations look
ing toward the establishment of peace
between his country and Nicaragua
have been terminated by an invasion
of Honduras by Nicaraguan troops.
AS a matter of course, claim is
expected from Nicaragua soon that
the Honduranian soldiers invaded
Nicaraguan territory.
The State Departments only dis
patch on the subject came from Leslie
Combs, the American Minister to
Guatemala, who said:
1.-THE Minister of Foreign Affairs
of Honduras telegraphs that Nicara-
qua by its invasion of Honduras has
terminated the pending negotiations
for pacific settlement"
The situation is most peculiar. 1t
appears that there is strip of land,
in some places twenty-five or thirty
miles wide, along the frontier that is
disputed territory. The boundary has
long been a bone of contention be-
tween the two countries. Nicaragua
asserts that the crest of the Colon
Mountain range marks the end of
Nicaraguan territory. Honduras de-
clares that the Wanks River, a num-
Der of miles to the east, is Honduras
territory. Between these two points
is the disputed strip of land. The
troops of the two countries have mo-
bilized around this territory, so when
there is an advance each side can
claim that it is still in its own terri
tory.

RAID UPON A BUTTER PLANT.
Owners Said to Have Illegally Col
ored Oleomargarine.

Chicago.-The plant of the Econ
omy Butter Company was raided by
eight deputy internal revenue col
lectors, who seized $500 pounds of
oleomargarine, said to be colored in
violation of the federal law.
Thorwald Oxnevad, proprietor OF
the plant, and two of his assistants
were arrested and gave bonds of
$4,000 each for their appearance.
Deputy Collector of Internal Rev
enue Frank e. Hempstreet, who
planned the raid, said the revenue
authorities had been watching the
place for two years. He estimated
that the output amounted to 5000
pounds weekly, on which, he assert
ed. the Government had been de-
frauded of tax of nine and three
fourths cents a pound.

LARCHMoNT VICTIMS BURIED.
Pair Were to Have Been Married in
Few Days.

Asbury Park, N. Jacob and
Sadie Michaelson, who lost their lives
In the Larchmont disaster, were bur-
led side by side in the Jewish ceme-
terry at Belmar. Funeral services
were held in Michaelson's home,
where he and the girl were to have
been married soon. All the bridal
decorations were removed.
The two bodies were picked up in
the water off Block Island. The ex-
preston on the faces indicated that
both had been crying when they died.
The bodies were also badly bruised.
Jacob Michaelson had just completed
a pretty new cottage adjoining his
fathers residence in Belmar, into
which he expected to move with his
bride after the honeymoon.
