FIFTY PEOPLE
ESCAPE DEATH
PASSENGER TRAIN BUSHES UP,
ON BURNING WOODEN
BRIDGE.

Springfield, Ill, Aug 11.-Fifty pas
sengers on board a Chicago, Peoria &
st. Louis train, bound from Peoria
to Springfield yesterday afternoon,
narrowly escaped death on a
burning wooden bridge which spanned
a high embankment. Engineer Nolan
and Fireman Winn, both of this city,
while rounding a sharp curve saw
that the bridge, a short distance
ahead, was on fire. Nolan did every
thing possible to stop the train before
the bridge was reached, but failing,
both jumped and rolled down a CO.
foot embankment. Neither was in
jured severely.
The locomotive and baggage CIR
ran so feet when the rails spread and
the locomotive bumped over the ties
until nearly across. Then it turned
over and stopped the passenger
coaches clear of the fire. The bag
gage car caught fire and was con
sunled, but the coaches were not
damaged much.

THE TRAMP PRINTER.
Pasiqn of a Once Familiar Figure In
Newspaper Offices.


What has become of the old time
printer, once so familiar before the in
vasiOn of the linotype machine? He
used to show up with the first frost.
You found him in the Office early
some October morning, toasting his
back before the stove. His first re-
'quest was, Boss, may I look over the
.exchanges?" and he was soon paving
around among the papers on the ed
IitoriaI table. By 9 o'clock he had
levied sufficient tribute upon the boys
Ito get a shave and a drink, and after
dinner he was picking up BREWER IN a
way to make an expert envious. All
winter he worked as steadily as a
clock Many were the stories he told
around the back room fire on a Sun
day afternoon. Though without muck
education, his very wanderings had
lade him an entertaining parsonage.
In the spring, however, when the
tiny bees buzzed lazily against the
sunny window pane and the lilac
bushes in the courthouse yard were
putting forth their fragrant lavender
plumes and the night air was pungent
with the cIor of burning brush piles
land sweet with earthly exhibitions Of
upturned sod and everywhere could be
heard the laughter of children playing
in the twilight, a change came over
the spirit of the tramp printer. He
felt the call of the road, with its luxu-
rious days of animal delight under the
clear skies Of spring, with its privi-
.lege of work when you wish and idle
when you will He wished to see the
boys again, TO visit the fifty offices
where he had friends So one Mon
day morning in midApril when you
entered the Office you missed his form
at the case, the months familiar fig
IRE with one gallus down and a short
oil stained cob pipe protruding from
under a slightly luminous nose. Yet
with all of his vagrant impulses you
felt kindly toward your nomadic
brother in the art preserYative and

ASK FULL RATES
TO BRYAN MEETING
RAILROADS EXPLAIN THAT IT Is
NOT AN ACT OF
PARTISANSHIP

Chicago, Aug. 11.-NOrman E. Mack,
chairman of the democratic national
committee, was notified last night that
no reduced rates would be put into
effect for the Bryan notification meet
ing at Lincoln, Neb, on August II.
The communication came from Eben
Mcleod, chairman Of the Western
Passenger association, and was in re-
ply to a letter sent that official by
Mr.. Mack earlier in the day and call
ing attention to the fact that reduced
rates had been granted on the occa-
sion of the Taft celebration in Gin
cinnati, whereas no concessions had
been made for the democratic gather
| ing. Mcleod explained the action by
the railroads by referring to the fact
! that no reduced rates had been put
into effect for any events in Nebraska
since the passage of the twO-cent fare
! law in that state. He also emphasized
| the fact that reduced rates to Cincin-
natl were offered by the Central Pas
senger association. Mack denounced
the action of the railroads as dis
elimination against the democratic
party"

INTERVIEW WITH DEAN HENRY.
His Opinion On The Constitutional
Amendment for State Aid for Roads.

Madison Aug. IL
As many people are Interested II
the constitutional amendment to PEI
nit the state TO aid IN improving roads
the following expression from man
who has had the interests OF the far
mers Of Wisconsin at heart for many
! years cannot fail to be of value. The
passage Of this amendment is the first
step toward the adoption of a road sys-
tenn under which any town that is pro-
gressiye enough to vote to improve It's
roads can get aid from the state. The
town first votes Of its own free will,
TO improve its roads, and when it has
done so the country and state help to
/ pay for them.
When asked for his opinion Dean
Henry said.-"Any attempt 10 change
the constitution of Wisconsin to allow
for internal Improvements will natur-
ally be preceded by much agitation
and discussion. Discussion concern
ing our public highways cannot but be
productive Of good for now that the
pioneer stage Of agriculture is pas,
rural progress from this time On Is
more directly dependent on the condi-
ton Of our highways than on any other
factor. Whoever studies the present
conditions Of our roads and our man
ner Of dealing with them must admit
that the whole situation is bad. 1t
may be expressed by two words ar
rested development l am in favor OF
any and all efforts that will help
bring about the real improvement OF
our highways"
