WHY WORRY?

Of all foolish and hurtful things
worry should head the list. 1t is
foolish because it never did and
never can do any good. It's in
fluenee is harmful, and only
harmful, not only upon the one
who worries, but upon .all with
whom he comes in contact.
The things over which men
and women worry are mainly
those which do not transpire.
They exist only in imagination.
They are untoward things which
the imagination pictures as most
imminent, and which the false
logic of a disturbed mind declares
cannot be avoided.
The victim of chronic worry
worries over things past, things
present and things to come. This
he does in spite of the truth that
the past is beyond recall, and
however ill its legacies we must
accept them. The future none
can know, none foretell. We
know no more of what may
transpire an hour hence than of
what mayoccur a thousand years
hence. AS to the present,
is but a little moment which
comes freighted with joy or sor-
row and is past before we can
.Vkrasp and 1elstand what it
brings.
Why should we worry ? The
world is ruled, even our destiny
fixed, it may be, without aid OF
counsel of ours. A blind relent-
less Fate rules ana directs al
things or benign Providence
does. If blind Fate rules, let Us
become fatalists. Let US accept
and practice the philosophy o1
Zeno-become stoics. Better so
more rational than to worry. Il
is easy. On board a ship at ses

mayed the mariners Zeno OBJ

But a benign Providence, rath
er than Fate may rule and direc
all things. If so, He says to mel

| will guide thee continually.
Take no heed of tomorrow
what ye shall eat nor wherewitha

Here is a philosophy whic
teaches that men have, or easil
may have divine care and guiC
ance. All that is necessary fo
man to have such care is t
place himself in harmony wit
the divine will and purpose. H
has divine help and guidance eve
in this work to continual gui
ance.
Surely if men are guided an
their lives ordered continually b
infinite wisdom, benehcence an
love there is no cause, can be +
cause for worry. Yet christian
believers in the christian philo
ophy of life are those who worl
most. 1t must be that such chrl
tians are not quite in earnest,
not accept and practice the tel
ents of their own philosophy
Nothing can be more ration
than the conclusion that ma
whose life is divinely guide

success of their efforts. 1t will be a
big thing for Roswell, as three or
four hundred teachers always attend

Joe eunter Not Blamed.

A coroner.s jury of six responsible
citizens heard the evidence leading
to the death of Reuben Rupert, before
Justice A. J. Welter this afternoon
and returned a verdict to the effect
that he came to his death through the
accidental discharge of a fire-cracker
in the hands of Joe Gunter. The ac-
cidental character of the infiiction OF
tie injury that led to the mans death
as shown in this verdict removes any
criminal responsibility that might be
thought to be attached to the man
who lighted te cracker. The brother
of the deceased arrived last night and
arrangements will be made for the
shipment of the body at once.

Rome, (Later) AS the details OF
one of the most appalling disasters
recorded in the history of the world
are being unfolded in the dispatches
coming In today from Cala'bria and
from Sicily, this story of indescribable
horror and calamity that the earth
quake of Monday wrought in havoc
and destruction. cannot be estimated.
italy is stunned by the visitation, yet
the full measure of the catastrophe
cannot be taken. The calamity grows
with every fresh dispatch from South
Calabria, dotted with small towns and
villages and the local newspapers are
that run from hundreds to thousands.
dead May Reacn 100000.
1t is stin impossible to reach an ac-
curate estimate of the dead but it is
placed anywhere between 100000 and
$50. 900 and in some quarters it is de-
c1ared the final number will be as
high as 100000.
Half the population of Calabria and
Eastern Sicily has apparently perish
ed and countless thousands of wound
ed men, women and children are ly-
ing in the ruins. 1t is impossible to
succor all the alive. The numbers of
wounded are on their way to other
cities and are still without medical aid.
The devastated districts are still fill
ed with half demented survivors starv-
ing and wandering aimlessly in the
ruins. The ruins are still burning.
The King and Queen arrived in Mes
sina today, both personally aiding the
injured and their example is a wonder
possible is being done to forward the
work of relief but the railroads in
the afflicted districts have been put
out of commission.
Rome, Italy, Dec. 3O.-Half the pop
ulation of Calabrfa and the eastern
part of Sicily are dead and the other
half is weeping. From the latest esti-
mates today it is feared the total
number of victims in Sicily and Ca
hbria will reach to more than one
hundred thousand, while the damage
to property will approximate several
hundred millions.
As the great extent of the seismic
disturbance becomes apparent, it
seems impossible to exaggerate the
results which have followed them.
The calamity which has overwhelmed
Italy is almost beyond imagination,
not only because of the dead but OF
the innumerably injured buried in the
ruins many Of whom will perish, be-
cause 1t is impossible to rescue them
from the wrecks OF their former
homes. The whole city is absolutely

Terrible Stories Related.
New York, Dec. 30.-Terrible stor-
les are related in connection with the
work of the rescuers in connection
with the superstitutfons which are.
deeply rooted in the minds of the ST
cilians. In many instances the injur-
ed men and women clung to the crum-
bling walls, refusing to let go their
hold and seek safer position.
Pouring into Naples.
Naples, Dec. 30-The appalling
magnitude of the tragedy in South It
ally is being brought home tc the peo-.
pie of the North by the arrival of tie
refugees, the wounded and the un-.
scathed, from Messina. The fact that
dying people are brought such a dis,
tance for medical aid shows the inn
mensity of the disaster and the mad
equacy of the relief measures at pres
ent.
The German steamer Serappin came
into Naples today with 500 refugees.
The condition of the wounded is pit
liable as only few had received med
fcal attention. The Serappin had to
come to Naples because all the hos
pitals of the principal towns of Sic
lily are overf1owing, while: not enough
doctors and medical supplies, such as
bandages and surgical instruments
could be expected to be there.
1t is thought that by tomorrow night
fully $4,000 injured will be here. The
municipality is realizing the difficult
ties of the situation, has appealed to
the local population asking that sue
cor and hospitality be given the un-
fortunate Sicilians. Several large
buildings are being prepared to serve
as hospitals.
Bishop Seasons Missing.
New Orleans, Dec. 30.-The Right
Rev. David Seasons, Protestant Epis-
copal Bishop of Louisiana is believed
to be at Messina Nothing has been
heard from him.
Cheney and Wife Are Dead. =
Washington, Dec. 3O.-A dispatch
was received at the State Department
today from Counsul Gale at Malta,
confirming the report of the death of
Consul Cheney and his wife at Mes
sina. The body, the dispatch says,
has not been recovered.
Water Thirty Feet Deep.
Monteqeone, Dec. 30.-The tidal
wave that swept into Reggie flooded
the city to depth of thirty feet a.
the water front were swept from their
foundations and carried out to sea.
Twelve miles of the railroad near
Reggie was destroyed. A tempest ad-
ded to the terror of the scene.
More Shocks Felt.
Syracuse, Sicily, Dec. 30.-Violent
earthquake shocks were felt here at
half past five this morning The peo-
pie were terrified and rushed from
their houses into the surrounding
country. Violent shocks were felt on
the Island of Utica, forty miles north
of Sicily, last night.
