Six lives were crushed out in an in
slant near Columbia City, Ind, when a
Pennsylvania Railroad train smashed
an automobile in which ,ere Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles Sherman King, their two
daughters. Miss Fayma Bradshaw and
Carl Timmins, the chauffeur, all of Fort
Wayne, The machine was stopped
about half-mile west of Columbia City
at a railroad crossing by a freight
train and the chauffeur drove onto the
second track, waiting for the freight to
pass. He failed to see the Manhattan
Limited passenger train which came at
a high rate of speed. The automobile
was destroyed and the bodies of its six
occupants were flung along the track
for distance of a hundred feet and
terribly mangled. Skulls were frac-
tured, arms and legs broken, chests
crushed and clothing stripped off. So
great was the force of the collision that
the huge locomotive of the passenger
train was derailed
The party was in Mr.. Kings automo-
bile and was going from Fort Wayne to
Lake Wewasee to spend Sunday. 1t is
said that when the party started on the
trip Mr.. King ordered the chauffeur to
make the run in two hours and a half,
which is about half an hour less than
the usual time.
Mr.. King formerly was member of
the Indiana Legislature from Wabash
County, being chairman of the Ways
and Means Committee. He was a mem

Commissioner Of Education Draper OF
New York has stirred up a hornets nest
of hostile criticism by his reported re
marks at the Now York University Sum
mer School touching on the cherished
birthright of the American youth to as
pire to the highest positions of honor and
power. After contrasting the condition
of boys and girls in foreign countries who
are expected TO stay in the class in which
they are born with that of American
school children, who are taught to regard
themselves as the equals of any, Draper
continued "Car educational system, act.
ing upon our natiogal compartments. often
leads children into mischief. 1t often EN-
courages them to undertake things for
which they are not fitted. | think we
make mistake in telling the child that
he may be the President Of the United
States" This sentiment is in line with
the recent movement In New York and
other States to have trade schools added
to the public provision for education.
The published correspondence between
President Roosevelt and President Eliot

conjunction with Assistant Secretary
Bacon as fellow alumni Of Harvard. bad
wired Eliot IL it were not possible TO
find some other punishment for the oars
men who had violated certain rules which
Eliot regarded as dishenorable. Roose-
welt took the ground that il was unfair
to make others suffer for an offense for
which some other punishment might be
found. Eliot replied that "a keen sense
Of honor being the finest result Of col
lege life, I think the college and gradu-
ates should condemn effectively disbon-
orable conduct" and the -the college
should alsc teach that che must never
do scurvy things in the supposed interest
or for the pleasure Of others"
The New York Board Of Education hss
recommended to the Charter Revision
Commission that no married woman hs

Oklahoma Puzzled as to Whether to

~@>~@--A~-A41 = h11Ac0 &C. " W Act1cE "
Hold Land or S.ll Immediately.
Under the initiative and referendum
law OF Oklahoma there is to be sub
mitted to the voters of that Stare in
the November election a proposal TO
sell the 100000 acres Of public lands
which the State holds in its school and
public buildings funds. The bill for
this purpose has been carefully drawn
and contains minute details of the
terms, conditions and methods of sell
ing the land. If majority of the vot-
ers in November give affirmative bal
lots for it, it will become effective as a
law without action of any sort by the
Legislature.
Ten years hence these lands will
doubtless be worth several times more
than they are ROW. But supposing all
these 100000 Oklahoma acres to be
good for agriculture, they would cut
up into 10000 40-aere farms, each oc-
cupied and titled by a thrifty farmer,
contributing to the wealth of the State
and paying taxes to the States reve-
nue. fund and to local and State school
funds.
If the lands are held they will be
leased by State Board and are likely
to become tka subject of political fa-
voritism. The lessees will not take
the same interest in cultivating and
improving them that they would in
lands secured by ownership to them
selves and their children. 1t is proba-
BILE. therefore, that in the end the lands
will prove to be worth more to the
State if sold now than if held for the
higher price which they undoubtedly
would bring later

PICTURES MADE TO SPEAK.

New Invention Adds Realism to q
Popular Amusement.
Strikingly realistic as are the scenes
depicted by the moving pictures of the
cinematograph, they promise to be
made more lifellke still by the inven-
ton of Philadelphia, device which
records and reproduces sounds photo
graphically, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord.
The outward appearance of this in
yention, upon which patent has been
granted recently, Is much the same as
that of photograph. The record of
sound, however, is made not upon a
wax-coated cylinder but upon sensi-
tized film. This Is done by first set
ting up electric vibrations in suit
able charged Circuit. and then trans
forming these electric vibrations into
light vibrations. the intensity of which
are varied in accordance with the
original sounds.
These variable light vibrations are
transmitted TO a movable sensitive
film so as to produce an image which,
when developed properly, appears as
line varying in density and, of course,
In light-transmitting properties.
To produce the sound light beam
is passed through this Photographic
record. the record being of various den
sity affects passes through it and this
light beam acts upon suitable selen-
ium cell. which, In turn. controls a
charged electric circuit including
telephone receiver. This receiver is
placed :n q suitable resonator or sound
amplifier. ev which the sound waves
produced BY the receiving diaphragm
are so amnlified that they may be
heard at considerable distance.
Ii can be seen readily how this new
conical recorder worked synchromatic-
ally with the camera used for taking
moving pictures could be made TO pro-
duce the confused noise of a street
scene: the turmoil of a chase. the
splash OF water. and IN fact, all the
indiscriminate sounds that are found
IN nature; so timed that they would
make moving pictures give forth the
sounds Of the original scenes
The new invention is an Important
development Of what is one Of the
most interesting OF modern scientific
amuseme2ts.
