Bishop Stanley lived to see in the
diocese, the building of So churches
more in the places where there we're
no churches, in the l8 years from
1890 to 1908, than in any other dio-
cese in the United States. There
we're in January, 1908, one church for
every 312 members in this diocese.
Personally Bishop Stanley was a
most kindly, genial, and sympathetic
man, extremely generous and man
of high ideals. These were typified
in his addresses before the graduating
classes of St. Johns Academy, and
all who heard his earnest words of
advice, encouragement and admoni-
tion, given to the last class of this,
his favorite Institution in the state,
cannot forget them. Botn the clergy
and the laity will mourn leader and
a friend whom the entire state re-
spected and honored.
One of the last active efforts in his
work was the establishment of the
Bulletin of the diocese In March 1909.
For this assistant to church progress
the bishop entertained great hopes
and did much of the editorial work
and superintended the publication of
five numbers.

Bishop Shanley.)

ENGINES coLLIDED
Two N. p. Freighters Tried to Oc-
cupy Same Track at Same
Time. One Demolished.

East bound traffic was crippled for
several hours Monday when two
Northern Pacific freight trains COL
lided at the east switch in the James
town yards. Collision occurred about
9:lO p. m., light freight train on
the Valley line running into heavy
west bound freight.
The engineer OF the Valley train
while still on the branch line and
only having light train, thought he
would have no trouble In getting to
the main line switch and In the clear
before the west bound train arrived.
The head end brakeman on the VAL
ley train turned the switch SO as to
60 on the main line, but after they
had gone few rods the train from
the east struck them, both engines
leaving the track and tearing up the
bed for several rods. The heavy en-
CINE on the west bound freight struck
the Valley line engine on the right
side, leaving the tender behind with
the rest Of the train and carrying the
small engine some distance, demolish-
ing the whole right side of the engine.
The large engine was not badly dam
aged. No one was injured, engineers
and firemen on both trains escaping
before the clash came.
The wrecking crane was ordered
out Immediately, and about twenty
five section men were at once put to
work building new track around the
two helpless engines. A track was
completed about q. M. and No. 4,
which had been waiting In the yards
since 1920 p. m., was allowed to 60
on. 1t was not until late hour this
afternoon that the wrecking crew got
through picking up the debris. Many
people saw and heard the collision,
which soon attracted big crowd.

The abundant rains of the present
season have caused shallow roofing of
Ill crops grown on land that is not
Thoroughly drained. This applies es-
pecia1fy TO corn, which naturally
roots deeply.
Corn should be cultivated as shallow
and often as possible. The shallow
cultivation will save the roots that
run near to the surface Of the ground,
and the frequent cultivation will
conserve the moisture. 81
Deep cultivation cuts the feeding
roots Of the plant and reduces the
yield.
Let the sun have as little as pos.
sible to do with the curing Of hay.
Hay that Is sun-dried and bleached
has lost much Of the aroma that
makes 1t palatable to stock.
