WRECK AT HIGH HILL
Rear End Collision on Wabash
Nine Miles from Mont
gOmery City
TWO DEAD, SIX INJURED


A terrible rear end freight train
collision occurred on the Wabash
road near High Hill Monday night
at about eleven o'clock. Freight
train No. 81 was running in two
sections about twenty minutes
apart, and section one stopped at
High Hill for water, tagging Sec
tion two as is the rule, but section
two was apparently not under
control, and ran into section one
with terrific force, blowing it's
way through, knocking things
helter skelter, until the engine was
derailed and demolished. When
the engine struck the caboose the
stockmen were hurled into the
air, and while badly bruised, ply
sicians say they will recover. The
engine fell across the track and
Fireman Hughes who fell between
the engine and tender, was mashed
to death. Engineer Wray was
thrown into a car of hogs and had
to fight them off to keep from be-
ing devoured. His arm was broken
and he was also badly bruised
and hurt internally, but will, il
is thought, recover.

THE WAY TO HEAVEN
BY J. @. HOLLAND

". @. HOLLAND
Gilbert Holland
Heaven is not gained at single bound;
But we build the ladder by which rise
From the low y(earth to the vnulted skies
And mount to its summit round by round.
I count this thing to be grandly true,
That noble deed is step toward God
Lifting the soul from the common sod
To purcr air and broader view.
We rise by things that are meath our feet;
By what we have mastered of good and gain;
BY the pride deposed and the passion slain.
And the vanquished ills that we hourly meet
We hope, resolve, we aspire, pray,
And think that mount the air wings
Beyond the recall of sensual things,
While our feet still cling to the heavy clay.
Wibgs for the angels, but feet for the men
We may borrow the wings to find the way
We may hope and resolve and aspire and pray,
But our feet must rise, we fall again.
Only in DIRE ANS is a ladder thrown
From the weary earth to the sapphire walls;
But the dreams depart, and the vision falls,
And the sleeper wakes his pillow of stone.
Heaven is not gained in single bound;
But we build the ladder by which rise
From the lowly earth to the vaulted SKIES
And mount to it's summit round by round.
