Bryan on Weekly Papers.

The principal address at the recent
annual meeting of the Minnesota
Press Association in st. Paul was not
On the program. William Jennings
Bryan was in town, and, as he missed
d train, had some time to pare, and
was prevailed upon to make a speech
to the editors. He said in part:
Il want to say a word about the
weekly newspaper; l want to make a
suggestion. Our great daily papers
are becoming more and more bust
ness enterprises and less political fac
tors. The trouble is, they are owned
mainly by rich men, and as a rule,
the men who have enough business
sense to accumulate the money re-
quired to own n of them haven't
enough editorial ability to guide the
editorial department. Hence these
papers are edited by hired men,
Such editors almost necessarily lack
the conscience and personality of the
country editor. Therefore they also
lack his influence. A country editor,
known personally to his public,
Yields more influence through his
thousand subscribers than does a city
editor, personally unknown, through
his 100000 subscribers. In proper
ton as we put character behind the
editorial position we shall add infu-
ence to the weekly press.
THE public must place an increas-
ing reliance upon the country papers
for leadership in political affairs.
Each party should strengthen it's
country press"

SCORES HOUSE OF LORDS
Campbell Bannerman Offers Res.
olution CurtaiIing Its Powers.
An Effete Government Has Lost the
Confidence OF. the People From
Unpopular Measures.
London.-Premier Campbell-Ban-

London.-Premier Campbell-Ban-
herman moved his resolution advo-
eating the curtailment of the power
of the House Of Lords before the
fullest House of the session. The
galleries also were crowded, those
present in that part of the House in
Guiding many peers who were anxious
to observe the beginning of the at
tempt to reduce their power to con-
troll legislation.
The resolution vas as follows:
THAT in order to give effect to the
will of the people as expressed by
their elected representatives, 1t is
necessary that the power of the other
Hous to alter or reject bills passed
by this House should be so restricted
by law as to cur that within the
limits of a single Parliament the final
decision of the House of Commons
shall prevail"
Replying to %aquestion, the Premier
said it was not proposed that the
resolution dealing with the House Of
Lords should be moved in the upper
House after its discussion in the
House of Commons had been COM
pleted. He emphasized the fact that
the resolution embodied the principle
of the predominance of the House of
Commons, and said that in adopting
this course they were following GER
tain historic presidents. The reso-
luton itself, ven if carried, would
not have the effect of law or procure
the desired results. A bill would
be necessary, and the Government
would exercise its discretion as to
when it should be introduced. His
Majesty's Ministers now only desired
to test the opinion of the House and
make sure that they had the House of
Commons behind them. They held
the view that the House of Commons
alone was authorized to express the
cOuntry's sentiments. The Premier
declared that the only course omen
was to recognize ungrudgingly the
constitutional authority which resid-
ed in the House of Commons.
Amid loud Ministerial cheers the
Premier protested that if this author
ity should be usurped by a non-elect-
ed House it followed that represen-
tative institutions must take second
airy place. The Government, he
added, proposed that provision should
be made for conferences between
the House of Commons and the
House of Lords when differences
arose owe a bill. If no agreement
were reached the bill should be rein
troduced and sent to the House of
Lords with a declaration that, should
a second conference fail to result in
an agreement, the House of Com
mons would pass the bill over the
heads of the Lords.
Continuing, the Premier said the
present Government believed that the
reduction of the period of existence
of a Parliament to five years would
effectively prevent ian effete Govern
ment which had lost the country's
confidence from forcing through I'M
popular and improper measures"

DOCTORS FOOD TALK.
Selection of Food One of the Most
Important Acts i'm Life.

A Mass. doctor says: "Our health
and physical and mental happiness
are so largely under our personal con-
troll that the proper selection of food
should be and is one of the most i'm
portant acts in life.
"On this subject, / may say that /
know of no food equal in digestibility
and more powerful in point of nutri-
ment than the modern Grape-Nuts,
four heaping teaspoons of which is
sufficient for the cereal part Of a
meal, and experience demonstrates
that the user is perfectly nourished
from one meal to another.
81 am convinced that the extensive
and general use of high class foods of
this character would increase the
term of human life, add to the sum
total of happiness and very consider
ably improve society in general. I
am free to mention the food, for I
personally know of its value"
Grape-Nuts food can be used by
babes in arms or adults. 1t is ready
cooked, can be servedinstantly, either
cold with cream, or with hot water or
hot milk poured over. All sorts of
buildings and fancy dishes can be
made with Grape-Nuts. The food is
concentrated and very economical, for
four heaping teaspoons are sufficient
for the cereal part of a meal. Read

yille," In pkgs. There's a Reason"

time she will lay 700 eggs, each con-
tanning $50 grains of water, 125 of
fat, 10S of lime, 80 of albumen, 26
of sugar and 10 of ash-the most
condensed and strengthening form of
food offered to man. Every person
having a little plot of ground is able
to keep from half a dozen to many
dozen of these wonders and so add to
the family income. To do this to the
greatest advantage, n must know
how to care for his fowls-to guard
against, detect and cure disease;
which fowls to save for breeding pur-
poses, etc. The simplest and most
satisfactory way of securing this
knowledge is to buy it from some
person who has made a success of
fowl raising as a business. Such a
book, giving the experience of TWEEN
ty-five years, is obtainable for rs
cents in stamps from the Book Pub
fishing House, 1874 Leonard St., New
York City. 1t is an invaluable work.
The life of n chicken saved would
pay for the book several times over.

Side Lines For Farmers.

A Chester, Mass, letter says that
the witchhazel industry has been
active. Farmers of that section sup
ply a local mill with hundreds of
tons of the brush. which grows fast
and returns 50 to SO a ton. Last
years crop produced go barrels of
extract. Another use for former
waste is in distilling from black
birch brush a substitute for oil of
wintergreen. For this the mills pays
$3.50 a ton, and last season used
1853 tons of brush, obtaining nearly
5000 lb. of oil, which sells to drug
gists and confectioners for So a
pound. Aside from being a substi-
tute for w~intergreen, it is used in
rheumatic medicines, birch beer, and
as a iavoring for mineral water. The
mill has'material usually to keep 1t
running till June. Another oil which
Is being developed is distilled from
the ferns which grow in abundance
on the hills. The properties are SIM
liar to those of witchhazel, with a
~pleasanter odor. 1t is called. Fernia.

REAR.END CRASH KILLS MANY
Passenger Filler Dashes Into a
Crowded Work Train at Hartford.
Men on Work Train Believed They
Had Right of Way-Railroad
Officials Silent.

Hartford, Conn. - In a railroad
smash-up in the home section of
Hartford nine workmen were killed
and t~hirty-five injured, some fatally.
A passenger train on the Highland
Division Of the New York. New Ha-
ven and Hartford Railroad ran into a
work train which was backing into
the city and crushed the cars.
The work train had been out with
a gang of men who were repairing
tracks, and was bringing part Of
them from New Britain. It had
sixty-five men aboard when it left
that city, and had dropped about
points. The engineer and conductor
of the work train understood that
they had the right Of way on Track
2 until Z o'clock, as the other
rack had been used for traffic dur
ing the day, in order to give oppor-
unity for the repairs.
Near the Sigourney street cross
ing, where there is a sweeping curve,
he passenger train, which had gath
cred good speed as it came out of
The station, appeared on Track No.
2. Both engineers tried to stop, but
they had little time, and the trains
came together in a bad smash. Some
of the trainmen and workmen
jumped, but most of those on the
work train were caught. The en-
CINE of the passenger train tore
through the cars and piled up on top
Of the debris.
Dead and injured were scattered
along the street for some distance,
but many men were caught under the
w~reckage. The survivors and men
from neighboring houses quickly
started the work of rescue, and they
were soon Joined by cores of others.
Fire started in the wreckage, and
the firemen were summoned. After
%quenching the flames they became
r%escuers, and with axes and saws
worked hard until the arrival of a
squad of fifty railroad wreckers.
In one instance it took an hour
and a half to rescue n workman
who was pinned between trucks. His
head was hanging down backward.
and he suffered agony. The rescuers
kept encouraging him while doctors
reached between the framework
which held him and treated wounds
On his face and head.
When the train left New Britain
there were sixty-five workmen
aboard. Before the rescue was com.
plete darkness set in, torches
procured and the men continued to
labor for the remaining dead.
Coroner Calhoun. of Hartford
County, held a preliminary inquest
on the scene, and will summon wit
nesses for the regular hearing, when
an effort will be made to fasten the
responsibility on the train. dispatcher

tendent Pollock arrived late on the
scene, but refused to talk.

lision between a passenger train and
a freight train on the Auburn Di-
vision of the Now York Central Rail-

persons were killed and forty injured.
Several of the injured will also die.
The trains were both running at a
high rate of speed. The passenger
train was No. 230 and left Rochester
at 1890 O'Clock at night. The impact
when the two engines came together
crushed the passenger coaches into
splinters, and men and women were
hurled through the air.
AS soon as news of the accident
reached this city a special train was
made up, carrying Trainmaster S. F.
Emery and his assistant, Michael
Welsh. On the train were several
physicians. All of the physicians OF
Pittsford were pressed into service.
Among the injured is Engineer
James Lyon, and also his son, who
was in the cab with him. Both were
