We have just put in a stock of

that will in time take the place
of wood collins Casket MAX
ers have tried for years to find
a material that would eliminate
the bad qualities of wood, and
have finally been successful by
using Bessemer steel, coated
with lead. 1t has great strength
and durability--in fact is prac-
ticallv indestructible, and rust
proof.
These caskets are handsomely
appointed, and look like other
collins, are covered with satin
cloth and lined with silk. They
are on exhibitian at our store,
where we will be pleased to
show the different styles.

OUR VINCE is
INVINCIBLE
Head on Him Like a States
man and a Heye Like a
Hesgle.
DEMMIES IN DUMPS
Works a Circus Trick to De-
populate Democratic Dis
triCts on Nov. 2.

Our chairman, Vince Williamson,
has the longest head on his fat
shoulders that has ever been fasten-
ed to a Ring leader in Christian
county. Vince has managed the
campaign like a Mirabeau. Gov.
Wilson's speech Saturday advising
everybody that felt like it to bolt his
ticket was a sockdolager and Demo
Gratis are expected to tumble over
each other to bolt while the Repub-
licans all noticed the wink in the
Governors eye when he said it. 1t
was mighty hard to advise Demo
Gratis to bolt without Republicans
taking the same advice to them
selves, but the Governor and Vines
managed it to a Queens taste.
John Feland was so tickled over
the Governors speech that he says
he believes he and Gus have about
pulled the whole ticket through and
that all that is needed is about two
more of his Saturday night broad
sides.
Another smart trick Vince has
played is to bring about hot fight
for councilman between the colored
candidates in the Bloody Fifth"
ward. Ed Glass was denied his usu-
al place on the ballot this time and
is running under his own picture as
a Citizens candidate. DR.. Leverett,
his opponent, is on what he calls the

SENATOR KNOX'S POSITION
The Salary Of the Secretary of State
viii Probably Be Put at
Former Figures.

Washington, Feb. 1t.--Followine
close upon the discovery that Senator
Philander G. Knox, of Pennsylvania
could not without violating a proyis
ion of the constitution of the United
States accept the state portfolio in
the Taft cabinet, the senate took
prompt action to remove the constitu'
tional objections.
Senator Hale introduced a resolu.
ton which was referred to the com.
mittee On judiciary, providing that the
salary OF the secretary of state be
reduced from $4,000 to $4,000, the
figure at which It stood bsfore it was
increased. along with those OF all
other cabinet officers two years ago.
In view of this resolution, Assistant
Attorney General Russell, to whom
the question was referred informally
for an opinion, held that II congress
restores the salary TO what It was
before Mr.. Knox entered the senate,
the case falls outside the purpose Of
the law and is not within the law

A rear-end collision between two
Baltimore aud Ohio freight trains
occurred at Cherry Run this morning
shortly before ten o'clock.
The stone train from here ran into
the real OF fast freight train No. 81
while the latter was taking watel
with such force that the engine OF
the stone train was thrown across
the tracks. badly wrecking 1t, de-
nolishing the cab and tearing up the
four tlacks for quite a distance. one
car on 81 and three stone cars were
wrecked. while the caboose OF 81 was
smashed TO pieces and burned up.
Fortunately none OF the crew was in
the caboose ana therefore escaped in
jury. The engineer and fireman OF
the stone train jumped and saved
themselves.
The wrecked freight cars were
piled UP on the four tracks and with
one engine thrown ~croSSWays over

the wreck was cleared.

minutes before the collision occurred
but No 2 was delayed over two hours,

grade track as did all other trains
until the : scAsng crew got things

Just why the engineer Of the stone
train ran into the fast freight could
not be learned here today, but it is
supposed he did not see the train
ahead OF him till too late to STOP,

other institutions, and at the same
time has to contribute to the caore Of
those who are injured here out Of
their own pockets, in addition 70 their
