GRADE. CROSSINGS
AS A MENACE
THOUSANDS ARE KILLED
YEARLY AT THESE
PLACES.
Warsaw Has Several Dangerous
Crossings and Citizens Will be >
Interested in Elimination.

The slaughter by railroads at
grade crossings the country over
will be brought home to the pub
lie as result of the enactment
OF the Esch bill, according to the
prediction made by a League for
public Safety from Chicago head
quarters. The Esch bill requires
railroads TO make full monthly
reports to the Interstate Com
MERGE commission of all railroad
accidents. The reports have been
incomplete, but show that the &C
tual number of passengers killed
is only one-tdnth as large as the
number killed on rights OF way at
country road and city street cross
ings where adequate protection is
not provided Fully a tenth of the
trespassers are children. In Eng
land efisctive precautions are TAX
en- to keep the people out of dam
ger; The total death toll reported
by the railroads in 1907 was H.
$50, of which number only 6l0
were passengers, 1854 were rail-
road employees, 5,612 were tres
passers, 1,044 were not trespass-
Srs, and this takes no account of
the children who add 10 per cent
TO the total. The Interstate Com
merce commission has attempted
to classify train accidents, first
by grouping the railroads OF the
country in ten groups and also
classifying the victims, and so
far as possible the cause of the
accident, but figures have been
known to be very inaccurate. The
number OF employees killed and in
jured were sub divided in official
nNports to show the number of
trainrnen killed or injured and
how they were injured, but the
totals Jamestown such wide dis
crepancies between them and the
total OF known victims that no re-
lianoa has been placed upon tht
figures. In 1907 the total number
killed in the various ways was
enumerated: Handling traffic,
handling supplies, getting on or
off locomotives or cars, ETC., show
a total OF 1854. The total number
Of persons reported killed at high
way crossings in 1907 was one,
Notwithstanding the total number
OF deaths in the thousands.

y patients in particular that Sue
cess is to be hoped for in the
great work OF preventing the
spread of the disease.
Some Simple Home Advice for
Consumptives.
/. Sleep alone.
:. Use no useless curtain, up
.lolstered furniture, or useless
.CDr coverings in your sleeping
looms.
y. Expose the bedroom free
J - outside air when not occu-
CT, and sleep with the windows
IN. Spend as much time as
possible IN the open air and sum
inne, and use the bedroom early
Il night.
/. do not be afraid OF cold
Weather 50 long as the body is
protected, and be especially care
"A to keep the feet dry and
warm.
). Keep the body warmly clad
nd guard against the sudden
hinges OF the weather. Take
lenty III nourisiling food, such
: milk. eggs, and fatty foods are
especially valuable when they can
assimilated.
6. Lead a temperate life in
Il things. BE scrupulously care
i not TO infect the other men,
bers OF the family by distribut-
ing the germs contained in your
sputltm Hold handkerchief over
the mouth when coughing. Use
a destructible portable spit re-
ceiver, destroy them by burning.
Z. Never swallow the material
brought up from the lungs, it
may cause infection of the diges-
tive tract.
8. Scrupulously avoid dust,
disorder, dampness, darkness and
bad air in your home Be hopeful

served by everybody would do
wonflers in checking the spread
OF the. Great White Plague.

1t is now recognized that con-
sumption is undoubtedly durable
when intelligent treatment is un-
dertaken early in the disease. Ger
tain climates are known to be
very favorable to cure, and an
nually hundreds of people seek to
recover their health by going to
Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona,
Southern California, or elsewhere.
The only reason that climate
cures the disease is that sunshine,
equable temperature, and abso-
lutely pure air can be better taken
advantage of in some places than
others.

THE LAsALLE COMEDY co.

This company of clever artists will hold the boards of the Orpheun Theater Friday night November 19 in Hal Reeds masterpiece in four acts. This play although of blood and thunder title is one Of tie prct- tiest western melodramas that ever came from the pen of this versatile playwright. After a run of almost six months in the Grand Theater, New York, went to oston and to that staid and critical public played to bi gbusiness for over two months. an unprecedented run in that city for any melodrama.
 The play is on tho order of the Virginian with the exception this play contains a strong vein of com edy. Miss LasalIe who is starring in the above attraction is cIasserI among the best emotional leading women of the west. Her conception of this true southern girl gives her standing among the best. Between each and every act of the play MT. Barr avoids a wait by playing 6 vaudeville speciality in place of aa overture
 The exceptionally low prices of p, 35 and 50 cents puts the performance within the reach of all classes.

 RECORD AT SHOOT
Sunday Next Will be Last Day
 for Match Shoots

Despite the sharp, piercing wind which swept the Rifle range at the Country club, some remarkable shoot ing was done by members Of the Bis bee Rifle club in qualifying for the United States government marks mans button.
 McMinn made the most creditable performance, turning in a total Of 24 at a range of 300 yards, which was the best shoot of the day. Several other good scores were made also. McMinns count of 24 for 300 yards equals the range record, locally, for that distance
 Next Sunday, November 21, will be the last day on which the Rifle club can hold a match for the marksman's button this year; as all reports must be fa Washington by December fst. Therefore it is hoped that all the riflemen who have not already quail flied will visit the range next Sunday and try for the government decora- lion
