How II Worka Out.

81 never tell funny stories in my
speeches." remarked Senator Sor-
ghum.
1.-THE audience always enjoys them"
Eyes. A man hears you tell a funny
story, and he thinks it Is so good he
tries to remember it. He regards you
as first rate fellow and feels thank
full to you for giving him a new one.
Then he tells it to the FIRST friend he
meets, and as he isn't good story
teller the friend doesn't laugh. Then
he tries 1t on the blase hotel clerk and
the stolid drug store man and several
others, and by the time he gets home
he concludes you have passed him a
gold brick. He not only refuses to
vote for you. but tells all his friends
he doesn't think it's dignified to keep
in office a man who tells funny sto'
ries."-Washingto Star.

AUTO RACER IS
DASHED TO DEATH
EMANUEL CEDRINo Is KILLED
ON THE PIMLICo TRACK.
WHEELOF HlSCAR BREAKS
Expert Italian Driver Was Goino at
Terrific Speed on the Trials
for Saturdays
Races.

Baltimore, Nd, May 30.-Emanuel
Cedrino, the Italian automobile driver,
was instantly killed on Pimlico race
track Friday evening. He had been
preparing for races in which he was
to have taken part Saturday and was
making some very fast miles.
One mile had just been finished in
81 seconds and he had passed the
grandstand and rounded the first cor
ner of the track when spectators saw
his car shoot into the air and turn a
somersault, landing on the track up
side down. Those who rushed to the
spot found Cedrino stretched upon his
back, dead, with horrible cash in
the back of his head and portions Of
his brains scattered about He was
some distance from the car, from
which he had apparently been thrown
as it went over, and it is supposed
that his head struck the fence.
His Brains Dashed Out.
DR.. Herbert Schoenrich, who was
watching the practice spins of the en-
trants in the races, reached Cedrino's
side almost before the dust of the
accident had cleared away. He found
that the occipital bone had been torn
out entirely and that large portion of
the brain was also missing.
The accident appears to have been
caused by the collapse of the front
wheel on the right hand side of the
car. It was wooden wheel and
small fragments of it were all that
could be found after the accident. The
tire was found practically intact. The
machine was wrecked.
Was Going at Great Speed.
Cedrino arrived here Thursday and
had expressed himself as sure to
break the records from one to Is
miles. Earlier in the afternoon he had
made circuit of the track in Sc sec
onds. When he brought out his car
for his final work for the day he said
to the promoter of the races that he
liked the track and particularly the
turns, and that he would make q mile
in so seconds. He made three or four
circuits Of the track, each faster than
the preceding one, and at the time of
the accident was probably going at
the rate of mile in SO seconds.
The car was the one in which he
made all his records and was designed
by Cedrino himself in 1906. He stated
recently that it had been run 5000
miles without material repairs.
Cedrino, several years before his
debut in the United States as an ex-
pert driver in automobile races, was
chauffeur to Queen Helena of Italy.

FOUR KILLED; TEN HURT
STEAM PIPE ON THE CRUISER
TENNESSEE BURSTS.
Narrow Escape Of Admiral Sebree
and Other Officers ~ Vessel
Was on Speed Trial.

San Pedro, Cal, June GA terrible
States armored cruiser Tennessee at
1880 o'clock Friday morning while the
ship was steaming at 10 knots on
speed trial off Point Ruenene, CAL,
steam pipe in the starboard engine
room bursting under 235 pounds pres
ten others-all of the men in the COM
partment at the time. The explosion,
the cause of which is unknown, &C.
Cured only a few minutes after Ad-
miral Uriel Sebree, Capt. F. B. How
ard and Chief Engineer Robertson had
spectiOn.
The tube, which is four inches in
diameter and inclosed with water in
side the boiler, blew out, driving
torrent of scalding steam, coal dust,
cinders and hot ashes through the ash
A blast of white steam from the venti-
lators told those on deck of the acct
dent, and Lieut.. Commander S. S.
Robinson, the navigator, instantly
sounded a general alarm and dropped
20 lines of hose ready for instant use
in case of fire.
Rear Admiral Sebree himself es-
capped death or serious injury in the
fated fire pit by mere moments time.
He had left the room where the ex-
plosion occurred not so seconds be-
fore the fatal blast. The admiral
stood in the engine room adjoining the
fire room with Chief Engineer Robert
son and Capt. Howard. His first in
timation Of the tragedy was as he
mounted the ladder and a half-naked
fireman leaped past him suffering
from severe scalds.
When the smoke came from the fire
room, the fire call was sounded and
all the crew went to their stations in
perfect order and in a few seconds
Is to 20 lines of hose were ready to
turn on the fire. Several of the crew
behaved with heroism and will be re-
ported to the department later.
The ship was undergoing inspection
by the commander of the second di-
vision and had been under way for
over two hours, the engines, boilers,
and all machinery working perfectly.

GOULD LINE IN TROUBLE
WABAsH-PITTsBUR TERMINAL
IN RECEIVERS HANDS.
Unable to Meet $4,000 Interest Due
Monday on lts First Mortgage
Bonds.

Pittsburg, Pa, May 30.-Judge
James s. Young of the United States
circuit court late Friday appointed re-
ceivers for the Wabash-Pittsburg Ter
minal Railroad company, the Gould
line over which the Wabash system
gained entrance into Pittsburg several
years ago, and an important link in the
proposed Gould trans-continental sys-
TEN.
The receivers are Henry w. McMas-
tiers, general superintendent of the
Wabash-P burg Terminal, and Fran
els H. Shedding, president of the First
National bank of this city. The bank,
it is said, has absolutely no interest
in the property. The bond of the re-
ceivers was placed at 100000 and was
furnished by the American Surety
company Of New York. They were i'm
mediately placed in charge of the
railroad and it's auxiliary properties,
with orders from the court to keep the
railroad and all of the other properties
in use, the same as they have been
used heretofore, but in such operation
to pursue such course as will best
serve the interests of all concerned.
The application for the receivership
was made in bill of equity filed for
the Wabash Railroad company by At
torneys James Beal Of Pittsburg and
Arthur ]. Shores and T. L. Chad
bourne Of New York city. With these
attorneys appeared in court Attorney
Willis T. McCook of this city, repre-
senting the Terminal company, who,
on behalf Of the company, accepted
the bill of complaint and acquiesced
in the proceedings for receivership.
Inability to meet $4,000 interest
due next Monday on first mortgage
bonds is the immediate cause of the
company's embarrassment There are
also other pressing obligations.
AS stated in the bill of complaint,
the Wabash-Pittsburg Terminal Rail-
road company is indebted upon it's de-
mand promisory notes and upon audit
ed vouchers in the sum Of $6,093, 500,
for interest past due in the sum of
$41S,5S9. and upon purchase money
mortgages and interest on the same
more than 100000.
The annual fixed charges of the
company, the petition AYERS, amount
to more than $1,270,O00, and it has for
some time past been operating at 4
loss.

VOGUE FOR FANCY BUTTONS.
Liking for Brocade Waisteoats Has
Started Expensive Style.

The Louis Seize waistcGats made up
In brocades Of different eolors have
started the rage for fancy buttons,
and these have now become as i'm.
portant an article of dress as the ever
prominent string Of pearls or beads
and are often about as expensive. 1t
Is now all the fashion to make we'd
ding presents of valuable sets of but
tons, some of them being miniatures
painted by the best artists and set in
diamonds or pearls. Two or four of
these miniatures make the homely
button cost several thousands of dol
lars. Some of the button sets consist
of waistcoat buttons, hatpin heads and
umbrella handles-all in the same de-
sign. Some of these sets are carried
out in quartz in delicate shades and
in light and dark tortoise shell, and
the less expensive materials being set
In marcassite or with old paste.
Paste diamonds, by the way, are
all the rage. Enormous buttons made
of imitation jewels are introduced on
fashionable costumes to hold up dra,
peries or to tighten sombre belts of
bodices.
The fur toque, which is much worn
with bunch of flowers at the side or
with a larger osprey, gives another
opportunity for the display of imita.
ton jewels. Large paste buckles or
buttons hold the osprey in place on
the toque or are introduced among the
flowers. The correct trimming for one
of these fur toques is band of hand.
some fur, two or three enormous os,
preys of different colors placed at the
left side near the front, and jew.
eled button to hold the ospreys in
place. Then the crown is worn full
and rather high. The toque is worn
we'll down on the head with the hail
pushed out at either side, in halo
fashion. Some of the new fur toques
are made like small caps with mer-
curry wings on either side, each wing
being held in place by jeweled but.

jeweled chain that goes across the
