A Future For Wild Plants.

Some Of the edible wild plants may
yet be trained to taste appetizing. and
In these days when any n who dis
covers a new way of preparing an old
dish or a new food that appeals to the
palate is hailed as a benefactor of the
race 1t might be worth while to take
up some OF the most promising of these
and see what can be done with them.
Young poke. for instance, tastes Won
derfully like asparagus if cooked and
dressed In the same way, and poke
will grow In almost any locality. When
the plant is old 1t is poisonous and is
used as medicine.

have so fine a complexion and eat
something better than weeds"
Aside from the question of the beau
ty of Miss Timpkins' complexion, it is
worth knowing that many so called
weeds are edible which we are accus-
toned to consider altogether useless.
The department of agriculture in
Washington some time ago made a
long list of plants ordinarily consider
ed useless, but which really make nu-
tritious food. The North American In
dams use many roots and plants for
food of which the white man knows
nothing. The red man cannot under
stand why any n lost In the forest
should starve when all about him are
the means of subsistence. Most of
our garden vegetables are wild plants
trained to their present perfection aft
er years of skillful cultivation.

FATAL JOY RIDE
All Night Automobile Party Comes 10 Grief in a Rail.
 road Cut
CHAUFFEUR ARRESTED

New York, Nov. 30--An all. night "joy ride" in a borrowed automobile came to disastrous end early to- day when the big touring car swerved from a road in Brooklyn tore through an iron fence and plunged into deep cut where the long Island railroad enters the tun- nel at Atlantic avenue. One of the four passengers was probably fatally hurt, two others were badly injured and the machine was smashed to flinders.
 The chauffeur escaped without a scratch and fled but he was quickly captured by the police. The men most seriously hurt is Bertran Sen wick, a clerk, aged 20 years of Glen dale. L. I. His skull was fractured and he was internally injured. There is practically no chance for his re- covery.
 Frederick Blaekenborn, butcher of Glendale suffered concussion of the brain and Louis Thiesen, a Glen dale silk weaver sustained a rib fracture Charles Holman, the chauffeur who is under arrest is a nephew of Mrs J. Gascome, the own CT of the automobile. The party had spent the night at Coney Island and were returning home when the accident occurred.

WAS NOT KILLED
Woman Confessed 10 Inc Mur. der of a Man But IL Proved
 10 Be BIS Brother
SHE IS IN CUSTODY

New Bedford, Mass, Nov BOA strange case of confused identity has just come to light in the discovery that William P. Simmons, colored, whom Hattie Douglass, colcred, has admitted having shot, is now living in New York, and that his brother, Harry P Simmons, was the man killed. Although William P. Sim mons came to New Bedford shortly after the shooting of his brother by the Douglass woman on August 22, the mistake was not noticed untii now. Throughout the several sta ges of prosecution the woman has al- ways admitted having shot William P. Simmons, although saying that she did so without intent to commit murder. The brother heard the case recited to him, with his own name used instead of that of Harry P. Simmons.
 It is expected that the mistake in names will not have any bearing upon the woman's trial, other than to de- lay it somewhat until the necessary corrections are made in the indict- ments. The next grand jury sits here in February, and a proper in- dictment will probably be drawn against her at that time

MORE THEATERS
Two More Are Now in ihe
  Works For Walerbury's Amusement.

Waterbury has long borne the name of the Brass city, and unless all signs of the times fail It will soon have another title, the theater town, or something of that sort. s. z. Poli, accompanied by Engineer Westover of Philadelphia, was here yesterday and made some investigation in the Moriarty property on East Main street, at the west side of Polls the- ater, with view, 1t is surmised, of building another opera house in that neighborhood. Then, of course, ev- erybody has heard of the new Empire theater in the Auditorium on South Main street, and to make things all the better the Chotzianoffs, who first planned for moving pictures in their proposed block at the corner of School and East Main streets, are now considering a proposition to form joint stock company and build a first-class opera house on the site. In order to put himself in position to have the opera house if he thinks we'll of it, MT Chotzianoff has bought a strip of land twenty-five deep and running the full width of his lot from MT Goodwin, the car riage maker, which will come in just right for a stage in case it should be needed. The price paid for the addi- tional land is said to have been $10O foot. At the present time it is cov- cred by an old frame building which when removed and replaced by some- thing more modern will add consid. erably to the looks of things in that locality.
 Anyway things are booming on East Main street and for all one can tell the public will soon want to fall in with John Moriarty's suggestion and call that thoroughfare Broadway.

CRASH IN THE TUBE.
Trains Come Together Under the
 Hudson River.

New York, Nov 30.--Two trains smashed into each other in~the tube under the Hudson river to-day but fortunately no one was injured. There were passengers in one train but the other was a string of twenty cars on the way over from New York to Hoboken for the early rush of New Jersey commuters to business in this city While no one sujered serious injury every one on board received a severe shaking up. The steel cars composing trains stood the test of collision perfectly. The train had started up an incline when a danger signal was displayed. The air brakes failed to hold the train dn the heavy grade and it slid back about 500 feet and crashed into the train which was following. Traffic under the river was delayed about half an hour by the accident.

RAISING THE DEAD
One Hundred and Ten Bodies Baye Now Been Taken From
 Marisunia Mine.

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov 30.-One hun dred and ten bodies had been rerov- cred from the Marianna mine of the Pittsburg-Buffalo Coal Go early to- day and these bodies are now at rest in the improvised morgue. Many more bodies have been located in the wrecked mine and these will be brought to the surface at once.
 Just one living man has been brought from the awful pit alive. He is Henry Arnold, track layer, but so dazed and helpless Is he that he can not yet tell the awful tale of his es- cape from the explosion and the suf- locating fumes that followed
 The last ray of hope for the rescue of many of the miners was dispeled when the first rescuing party reached the main entry and found ten dead bodies scattered about the floor. The other men were in the twenty-nine rooms. or workings, of the mine.
 There is no doubt that the death list will reach 165 men. Officials of the company, who stated that not over 125 had been killed now admit that 166 men went down the shaft to work. According to miners and others fa- miliar with the number of men gener- ally employed in the mine, the death list will exceed the company's esti- mate by at least fifty.
 Two of the men taken from the mine had been suffocated. and their bodies were not even scratched. One of these was JohE Ivili, cousin of John H. Jones, president of the Pittsburg-Buf- falo Coal company. owners of the mine, who was employed as head time keeper.
 Ivill's body was found beneath a coal digging machine, and it was ap- parent that the young man had crawl ed there in vain effort to escape the deadly fumes.
 The body of the other man was found near Twill. He had placed his face in pool of water, which all min CTS are advised to do when an explo- sion occurs, in desperate attempt to fight off suffocation until rescued.
 The cause of the explosion has not been determined Two theories are en. tertained. One is that a pocket of gas was struck by one of the miners quickly filling the workings and then igniting from lamp.
 The other theory is that gas from a we'll on the Fulton farm, under which the mine is situated, penetrated the workings.

Prisoners Who Escaped From Sing
 Sing Caught Robbing Store.

Albany, N. Y, Nov. 30-Abel Full lers and George Rogers, two of a trio arrested last night in the act of robbing the clothing store of William H. Butler on Broadway were identified to-day as convicts from Sing Sing prison who escaped last Tuesday night during the heavy fog. When arrested last night the men gave their names as John Stewart of Buffalo, George Murphy of Boston and James Mahar, also of Boston. In examining their discarded cloth ing the police found numbers similar to those by which state prisoners are designated. The state prison authorities were notified to-day and Chief clerk Charles K. Baker went to police headquarters with photo- graphs of the escaped convicts and identified Mahar as Rogers and Mur- phy as Fuller. .
 Stewards identity is not known. Police say that Rogers correct name is George Germaine and that he is a former Albanian.
 The three men were arraigned to- day charged with burglary and grand larceny.
