Is pressing outward. This affects the
sensatory nerves, causing what IL
known as pain. The nerves, unused to
the new conditions, telegraph the SEN
satlons to the brain in the only terms
to which they have been accustomed.
A nerve down there in the stump gives
the signal to the brain. That particu-
lar signal used to mean cramps In the
toes and the brain SO translates 1t.
Then there comes another signal which
used to mean rheumatism In the knee
and as rheumatism in the knee the
brain gives out the news.
ultimately, the doctor says, the
nerves will become accustomed to the
new conditions and invent a new cipher
code for communication with the brain.
or else the brain will learn to translate
the old signals differently. But mean

London, Sept. IA great procession
OF great Catholic clergy, which brought
the eucharist congress to an end, was
held Sunday afternoon amid scenas
such as the English churchmen who
planned 1T never saw before. Cardinal
Vannutelll, the pope S delegate. headed
the procession, wearing his scarlet robes
and hat, but not carrying the host. He
was accompanied by bodyguard of
English peers, of whom the duke of
Norfolk was the most prominent. and
a concourse of cardinals. archbisbons
and bishops, who also were attired in
unceremonial robes instead of vest
ments which it originally had been pro-
posed they should wear.
No such throngs of people have been
seen In London since Queen Victoria g
funeral, if even then.
Inc route of the procession was laid
through the quiet streets adjacent TO
the cathedral and but for the unex.
pected partizan strife, which a dis
cussion of this ceremony BROUGHT on
probably would have been solemnized
in reverent atmosphere. The great ma
Jorlty of those who attempted to wit
ness the spectacle, however, apparently
were attracted by curiosity and a small
part were openly and demonstratively
hostile. The Catholic element cheered
heartily while the procession passed by
and through the route, but there was
heard also considerable "booing," such
as the English people use in theaters
to express displeasure at any of the
plays.
The people began focking toward
the cathedral hours before the process
sion started.
Long before the hour set for the cere-
mOny, it was impossible to get near the
line of march. All the streets leading
in that direction were packed and the
windows overlooking the procession,
which were rented at high prices, were
filled. A number of persons tainted
in the church and were carried off by
ambulances.
After the procession had reentered
the cathedral, Cardinal Vannutelli ap-
peared on the high balcony in gor-
geOus robes and elevated the host,
while thousands of Catholics outside
the building reverently knelt.
The last day of the congress opened
with pontifcal mass in the cathedral,
which was celebrated by the papel
legate and at which all the cardinals,
arehbishops and bishops and many
others of the clergy assisted. The great
edifce was crowded, the audience fol
lowing with rapt attention the sermon
of Cardinal Gibbons, who preached elo-
quently.

Derailed by an Open Switch.
Youngstown, Ohio, Sept. 15.-Fifteen
passengers were slightly injured when
the New York Chicago limited, on the
Erie railway, was wrecked in the vii
lage of Geneva, Pa. The wreck is be-
lieved by the Erie officials here to have
been due to train wreckers. Blood
hounds have been taken to Geneva in
an effort to trace the alleged wreckers
All of the passengers injured were in
the day coach. The most serious in
jury was sustained by man whose
legs were broken.
The train was derailed by an open
switch at Geneva, while running at the
rate of 40 miles an hour. The loco
motive was overturned. The engineer
and fireman escaped injury. Two cars,
the combination express and baggage
car and the day coach, left the track.
The railway officials believe the wreck
was due to train wreckers, who may
have had a grudge against the com
pany.

illness, place three drops Of camphor on
a lump Of loaf sugar and place the sug-

Repeat this every fifteen minutes till
four or five doses have been taken. At
the same time place the feet where they
will become thoroughly warm. This
will usually prove effectual in breaking
up cold If the cold is taken at the

drop should be placed upon the sugar,
and five or six doses administered.
