These are what are termed as gen
eral disasters, outside of railroad
wrecks, automobile fatalities, hunt
ing casualties, war losses, marine
disasters, homicides and sporting and
holiday casualties.
In the railroad accidents, not count
ing the persons in the employ of the
companies, the records show that
1859 have been killed aud 1897 In-
jured on the steam roads and I'll
killed aud $3.50 injured on the cleo
trio roads With the number of
trainmen and others employed by the
roads added the total would be large
ly increased, as may be Inferred from
the reports made To the Inter State
Commercial Commission for 1906,
which gave total of 3,S07 employees
killed aud IS, 524 injured.
Three hundred aud twenty four per-
sons in this country were killed aud
l ,244 injured i'll automobile accidents,
which, considering the great number
in use, aud the fact that the mode of
travelling by that means il SO com
paratively new, it is not large num-
Der. During the hunting season
alone 20 persons were killed by being
shot accidentally. There were SIZE
deaths III this country recorded rs
being caused by violence, outside of
suicide and lynching.
The engaging in sports of various
kinds furnished 242 lives lost and
4,25s injured during the year. Foot
ball leads in the list of causes with
twenty one victims and baseball a
close second with eighteen. Fire
works aud the toy pistol furnished
seventy seven deaths aud 4, 033 MUIR
ed, of which 8, s65 were on July a.
The criminally reckless who didn' t
know the pistol was loaded have kill
ed forty three persons and wounded

p. R.R. PUTS BACK TICKET PRIVILEGES
CLERGYMAN S Half Fare Also TO Be Rest0r-
ed. 2Cent Law Being invalid.

The Supreme Court of the State o.
Pennsylvania having decided that
the act Of the last Legislature fixing II
maximum passenger fare of 9 cents II
mile is inapplicablc to the Pennsyl-
wanna Railroad, its branches and leas-
ed lines, the company will, February
|, restore the schedule of fares, which
had prevailed from November /, 1906
when the company voluntarily re-
duced it's maximum one-way rate to
p cents Il mile-until October |, 1907.
On the latter date, when the two cent
fare net became effective, all one way
rates were reduced to conform to the
law as it stood.
The system of passenger fares which
prevailed prior to October will, after
February !, again apply to nil por-
tons of the Pennsylvania Railroad
within the state of Pennsylvania, in
cluding the Buffalo and Allegheny
Valley, the Philadelphia aud Erie,
and the United Railways Of New Jer-
sey Grand Divisions.
As, however, the act is held to APP
ply to the Pennsylvania Railroad aud
lts branches only, two cent rate will
until cases now pending before the
courts ARE decided, be retained on
those portions of the Philadelphia,
Baltimore and Washington and the
Northern Central Railroads within
the state of Pennsylvania, as well as
on the Bedford Division, aud the Ian
caster and Quarryville branch.
The Company will also resume tho
sale of ls0- trip three month tickets

and all other Communication privileg et
which were Withdrawn pending the
decision Of the courts. Although the
two cent rate will sllll apply to til,

after February | again accord to pa
irons of that company all commute
ton privileges which were Withdrawn
October |, 1907.
