INQUIRY AS To
CAUSE OF WRECK
Investigation of Disaster at
Liberty Is Begun by
Railroad.
TRAINS WERE DETOURED.
CURVE HAS BEEN THE a@ENE OF
NUMEROUS coLLlsIx.-ANo is
KNOWN TO RAILROAD FRS AS
Hooooo SPOT.

Liberty, Ind. Aug. 19.-An investi-
cation has been commenced by the of
ficials of the c., H. & D., railroad as
TO the cause of the head-on collision
of the local freight train No. Sc west
bound and through freight train No
90 east bound, just west of Liberty
yesterday, which resulted in the death
OF Dennis Coakley of Hamilton, of
train No. Sc. Charles Rasor. brake
man of No. 50, of Connersville, was
seriously injured and several members
of the train crews were bruised by
jumping.
All the c., H. & D. trains were run
over the Pennsylvania lines yester-
day from Hamilton to indianapolis on
account of the wreckage that had not
been cleared away until late last even
ing. The accident occurred at the
sharp curve just west of Liberty,
which has always been one of the most
feared places to all train crews on the
c., H. & D. road. The wreck seems
to be the result of misunderstanding
of orders. Train No. 90 was a dou-
BILE header. Train No. sc was to meet
No. 30 at Cottage Grove, but orders
were changed to pass at the switch
west Of Liberty. A flagman of No.
Sc was sent forward and it seems the
train had followed the flagman too
closely and had just started to back
down the switch when No. 90 appeared
coming around the sharp curve. 1t
was too late to stop the big, heavy
train, which was coming at about 10
or Is miles an hour 1t crashed into
No. So and both engines were demol-
ished. All the members of the crews
jumped with the exception of Coax
ley, who was caught between the tend
er and boiler and death was instanta-
neous. His body was terribly man.
gled, baked and scalded.
Clarence White of Indianapolis, con-
ductor of the i'll fated &c who escaped
serious injuries by jumping, is the
brother of Charles White of Rich
mond.

More Tickle Than the Weather.

There is one quite naked piece of
nonsense which must be destroyed If
modern society is to so on at all. That
is the pretense Of teaching things "sci-
entifically" which are not in their own
nature scientific.
A man may learn to be a good
prophet about the stars; he may learn
after long assiduity and self culture. tc
be false prophet about the weather
but no man would dare to predict his
wife's temper, even falsely. 1t is not
scientific subject. 1t is impossible to
imagine whether the wife would be
more annoyed If he prophesied wrong
or If he prophesied right.
Let man keep weather chart, then
but not wife chart.-G. X. Chester

Fewer Convictions in Courts
During 1907 Than in
Year Previous.
ONLY ONE FOR PERJURY.
JUSTICES OF PEACE RiVALED
MAYORS AND CITY COURTS
NUMBER OF BIGAMY CONvIc-
TIoNS WAS ON DECREASE.

indianapolis, Aug. 19.-The people
of Indiana are getting better in their
morals according to reports which
were completed today by Mary Stubs
Moore, chief of the Indiana Bureau of
Statistics. The total number of con-
victions in county courts, justice of
the peace courts and mayors and city
judges courts in 1907 was 81 416. The
total number of such convictions in
1906 was 41711. Certain changes
we're made in the forms of the reports
this year so it is practically impossible
to compare in detail the business this
year with that of previous years. For
example, heretofore the felonies and
misdemeanors have been reported to-
gether. This year they are separated.
The number of convictions on i'm
portant felony charges last year was
as follows: grand larceny, 2O5; petit
larceny, 1914; assault and battery with
intent, 224; burglary, 80; murder, 60;
and perjury, 80. Out of the thirty ar
rests for perjury there was only one
conviction.
The total number of convictions in
county courts during the last year was
3,2S7, the number in justice of the
peace courts, 14,047 and the number in
mayors and city judges courts, 49,
0S2. The total number of convictions
on bigamy charges last year was five
as against nine in 1906. The number
of convictions on the charge of burg
lary last wear was seyenty-Seyen while
the number in 1906 was 24S.

Strictly Fresh Eggs.

There are summer resorts, remote
from any agricultural communities,
where fresh farm products are even
harder to obtain than in the city. 1t
was at such place that the new
boarder, who had eaten four or five
breakfasts there, began to wonder why
the eggs were invariably served fried.
See here" he inquired one morning
of the genial colored man who waited
upon him, why do you always fry
eggs here? Don't you ever boil them?''
"Oh. oh, yes, sah!" responded the
waiter pleasantly. "Of co'se yo' kin
have 'em boiled If yo' wants 'em, but
yo' know, sab, yo' takes de risk.-

IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS.
Don't Mistake the Cause of Your
Troubies-A Richmond Citizen
Shows How to Cure Them.

Many people never suspect their
kidneys. II suffering from a lame.
weak or aching back they think that
1t is only muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think it
will soon correct itself And so it is
with all the other symptoms of kidney
disorders. That is just where the dan
ger lies. You must cure these trou-
bles or they may lead to diabetes or
Bright's disease. The best remedy to
use is Doan's Kidney Pills. 1t cures
all ills which are caused by weak or
diseased kidneys. Richmond people
testify to permanent cures.
Enoch Cromer, living at 221 North
10th street, Richmond, Ind, says:
"Railroading is said to be hard on the
kidneys and the continued jar and jolt
of riding on trains got me into a bad
condition. My kidneys became weak
and there was inflammation OF the
bladder. Many nights there would be
three or four passages OF the secre-
tons before I could get to sleep and
this loss of rest made me weak. de-
pressed and in no condition for work.
Frequently l felt faint and dizzy SEN
sations and a general feeling of lassi-
tude and weakness. Mr.. Hiatt of the
Hiatt Drug Co, advised me to try
Doan's Kidney Pills. l did so with
good results. The backache was re-
lieved and the kidney action became
regular"

How Cheap Is Your Soap?

That is a question that few women
can answer, because many of them
buy the impure kind, made to weigh
heavily by the amount of rosin put into
the soap. But rosin is not cleansing,
and is not cheap at any price. The
standard pure laundry soap is called
Easy Task. 1t is all soap and there
fore goes farthest, yet only costs five
cents a cake.
