Shoe Fly Built Around
the Wrecked Trains.

As soon as the dead and injured
had been cared for by the passengers
and other trainmen dispatches were
sent to Helper and Grand Junction
and soon wrecking crews were en-
route to the scene of the horror.
AS quickly as possible a "Shoo
Fly" was constructed around the
wreck and late this afternoon orders
came to this city TO the effect that
the west bound trains should pro-
coed. They will go around the wreck
on this "Shoo Fly"

There Was No Warning
For Passenger Crew.

There is every reason to believe
that neither the fireman or the en-
gineer of the passenger train saw the
other train until ii was too late to
make any move to save themselves.
1t is believed that Engineer Heide-
, man was standing up when the crash
| came and that his head was jammed
under the cab window and the top
torn Off Fireman HeinZe was evil

meath the engine and boiler.
Vaughn. the baggageman, asleep
in his car, was crushed fatally before
he had chance TO save himself by
jumping. He lived, il is reported for
some moments after the accident but
never spoke.
Soon passengers, many in their
night clothes, were pouring out of the
cars of the passenger train and as
quickly as possible the bodies of the
dead were recovered from beneath
the wreckage and the injured were
given first aid attention.

Train Arrives With the
Dead and Injured.

At 6:30 o'clock this morning, on
a special train made up in the local
yards DIR. II. S. Henderson, DIR. IL. r.
Bull and DR.. Knude Hanson left
Grand Junction for Cisco, Utah; to
which point the injured and the dead
had been transferred from the scene
of the wreck as quickly as possible.
The physicians gave immediate at
tention to the injured men and made
them comfortable as possible. The
dead and injured were placed on the
physicians train and brought to
Grand Junction. This train reached
here about 1920 O'Clock.
The train passed through the sta
tion, where hundreds of people were
waiting and went to the Twelfth
street crossing, where the wounded
were transferred in wagons to st.
Mary's hospital.
Then the train was run back to the
Fifth street crossing and the bodies
of the dead were removed The bod
les of Fireman Heinze and Baggage
man Vaughn were given into the
charge of Undertaken Krohn while
the body of Engineer Heideman was
given itno the charge of Undertakers

IN A FAST GAME JUNCTION
TODAY WON SCORE
WAS 5 To 4

The ball game of today between
Cripple Greek and Grand Junction
was overshadowed by the pail of
gloom that fell on this city by the
death of three railroad men and the
injury of three others.
The Cripple Creek aggregation
came in on the noon train, and they
looked like ball players from the
ground up.
There has been a great deal of in
terest ever since the announcement
that there was to be game between
Cripple Creeks High Grader team
and Grand Junction, and it is hard
to predict what the outcome of the
three games will be. whatever the
score of today.
The usual contingent of base ball
fans of the city were not present
this afternoon in as large numbers
as usual, on account of 1t being the
big trading day of the week; but ii
is anticipated that there will be a
great crowd present tomorrow
The game was called early today,
in order to accommodate the visiting
Elks. The crowd was very small at
first. as evidently the change in time
was not generally known.
Don Means. the official umpire,
was late in arriving on the grounds,
and Kelly, of Nevada, visiting Elk,
officiated until Means arrived at the
end of the first half of the first in

Not a Passenger
Was Injured.

Not passenger on the train was
seriously injured \ few were badly
shaken up and bruised but all were
able to proceed west when transferred
TO train on the other side of the
wreck.
The injured were cared for on one
of the sleepers until the physicians
arrived from Grand Junction.
The dead bodies of the passenger
trains engineer and fireman were
taken from beneath the engine and
the dying baggageman was taken
from under his car.
The fact that the engine crew of
the sheep train jumped probably ac-
counts for them escaping alive.

He will recover.

sheep train, home in Grand Junction,

shoulders and head but will recover
All of the injured are members of
the sheep train crew.
The cause of the wreck has not

reasons to believe that ii came about

PILLOW GASES
EdgiDg of Grocbetsd
Lace is just Nov
the R@a .uF@

Pillow cases edged with oid-fash-
.oned crocheted lace are taking the
place, to some extent of the hem
stitched finish. When the lace Is made
Of fairly strong thread and the pattern
substantial one the edging will out
wear the linen or muslin cover. An
effective two-inch edging is made in
The following way, beginning with a
row of wheels which form the center
pattern of the trimming: Take medium
size cotton thread, which comes espe-
cially for this purpose, and make
rings by winding the cotton Is times
around large wooden knitting needle
or pencil, then crochet 2S double
stitches in the ring; join and make
three chains and crochet a treble chain
into each of the ring double crochets;
then crochet six chains and catch the
sixth with double crochet stitch into
the second treble stitch; continue this
around the ring.
This makes IA chain loops around
each ring. After a sufficient number
of wheels are made in this manner
they should be joined together by fas-
tening the middle stitch of each of two
chain loops to two adjacent loops of
another wheel, and SO on. This will
leave four chain loops of each wheel
attached to other wheels and ten chain
loops loose
Now when a yard and a half or more
of the wheels are joined together,
enough to trim the edge of pillow
case, fasten the thread into the fourth
loop from the end and make three
chains and double chain into the
next chain loop, five chains and one
treble chain into the next chain loop,
one long treble chain quitting the
thread twice over the needle) into the
next, one triple chain (three times
over the needle) into the two chains
joining the two wheels; then one long
chain into the first chain loop on the
next wheel and one treble into the
next loop. Three chains and double
crochet into the, next loop and three
chains and a double crochet into the
next bring the thread to the top
again.
This makes the top of the edging
almost straight. Then comes row
of double crochets, with two chains be-
tween, row above this Of two treble
crochets into the space between the

STUDY POLAR SEAS
PROBLEMS or ARCTIC REGION TO
BE PRoBED.
Knowledge OF Far North and its Mys
teries to Be Increased II Possible
by Or. Amundsen's
Expedition.

Christiania.-Dr. Fritjof hansen, in
his lecture before the Geological So
ciety In London, pointed out that the
principal problems of geographical ex'
ploration in northern Arctic regions
consist in the scientific examination of
the extent, depth and general charac'
ter of the polar basin. This task could
to an important extent be fulfilled, he
intimated, if future expedition would
let itself drift over the polar basin, as
did the Fran expedition of 1896, but
With its route laid further to the north.
These words contain the nucleus OF
Capt. Amundsen' kcheme, which was
explained in lecture before the Geo
graphical society at Christiania. DR..
Amundsen said
1--WE have apparatus now by which
it is possible to obtain samples NOT
Only of the surface of the bottom itself
but also of the underlying strata at a
depth of two meters or more. Per.
haps of even greater Importance, how
ever, is the examination of the tenn
VI lHC WdICt at Oh'
depths of the sea. We are now able to
measure 1t with exactness at any
depth. We know of three different
water bulks in the polar basis; they
represent at the least three different
current systems which are not yet sui
ficiently examined. We will be able to
do this through the hansen pendulum
current measure apparatus and Dr. Elk
born's propeller current measure ap
paratus, both invented within the last
four or five years
Another problem which has not
been sufficiently examined is the exis.
tence of tidal waves and tidal currents
In the polar basin, question of great
importance not only to science, but
to navigation as well. Influence of the
winds on the currents of the sea and
their importance in organ5c life, the
role of light in different depths below
the ice and the physiology of the sea.
I'VE have no ambition to establish a
record In the race to reach the geo.
graphical north pole. The object of my
expedition is the scientific examination
of the polar basin. its bottom and con-
figuration, and the different oceano
graphic problems in connection with
It. The manner in which hope to &C
complish my scheme is not an original
one. The scheme Of my expedition is
as follows:
"On the Fran, with selected equip
ment and provision for seven years,
will leave Norway in the beginning Of
1910. We start for San Francisco. go

The proposition to assign womeR
nurses to the navy did not win its
way to official approval and legal en-
actment without red hot fight. There
were many who opposed 1t on the
ground that the nurses would be

many hardships as we'll as insults dur
