CriticiSinq Father and Mother

AT certain stage IN the Ire OF many
of our young people, they fall into an
unpleasant habit of criticising their
parents. Occasionally lapses in English.

dress, manners and social usageS, are
freely commented upon. When daugh-
tiers get to know more than their moth

their fathers, there is friction in the
family machinery which causes many an
unpleasant jar. This does not mean
that our young folks are Intentionally
rude and ill-mannered. Such habits
creep upon them unconsciously. They
do not mean to be disloyal or migrate

their side the parents often feeI too
deeply hurt by these criticisms to re-
monstrate against them. They suffer
many indignities in silence when it
would be wiser to administer the de-
served rebuke
Each generation enjoys privileges I'M

between parent and child is that of
perfect comradeship. When parents

their parents, harmony reigns in the
home. Happy the family whose daugh-

cINCINNATL-Helen Twinem. II. Of

Miss Twinem is a frank-faced. whole
some youngster She was brought up In
the country and had the run OF 20o-acre
farm till trouble came and her father
lost all he had When he died she was
forced 20 go 10 work as a kitchen
drudge. The sharp contrast between
kitchen work and the outdoor life to
which she had been accustomed, set her
thinking and she decided TO disguise
herself as a boy and seek outdoor en-
plOyment.
Downing boys clothing she came TO
Cincinnati. where her masquerade was
ended by a policeman who found her in
the Pennsylvania depot.
HELEN TWINEM N MALE ATTIRE.

How Cheap Is Human Life

When nv daily newspapers came IN
TODAY. the headlines contained these
dreadful words: Forty killed, eight or
ten others may die
An excursion train conveying a great
crowd to a fair in the state of Indiana,
coIlided with another train going the
other way, and the result was as stated
Men. women and children were massa-
cred in a heap, and the great majority
were killed at once. 1t was fearful
killing. and somebody was awfuIly TO
blame.
I had been intending, II possible, to go
to Knoxville Tenn, and spend DAY
or two at the big fair now being held
IN this east Tennessee metropolis; but
concluded I would wait awhile, If an
Indiana railroad train could kill forty
and maybe ten others with so much ce-
lerity and indifference.
II is quite enough to disgust all people
who must go in crowds to such places,
if they go at all.
Somebody was seriously to blame But
the dead are gone, and there is nothing
left. unless some damage suits against
the railroad managers should come
along.
Fathers, mothers, husbands. wives, all
sorts and conditions of people were dash
ed TO death in horrible scene, and no
one can measure the loss or the extent
of damage to survivors, as we'll as to
the dead people who were pulled out
from beneath the debris.
There is no use in saying that rail-
roads shall be ready to pay, when no
pay can cover the loss or put back life
or things TO where they were before.
We are comforted with the painful fac.
that human life is the cheapest thing
going Every day these horrors occur
somewhere. And then these railroad
managers night the survivors to the Dit
ter end TO stave of payment of damages.

SAW Mil SHUT DOWN

Misunderstanding company, which has
been running quite smoothly since
opening the season with day and
night shifts, was given set. back
Wednesday noon. when it was forced
to shut down owing TO the main shaft
Of tho big engine, which furnishes
tho motive power for the mill, sustain
ing some very bad cracks. Luckily
the zimpairments to the man shaft
were discovered before it could break
OFT entirely, which would have caused
considerable damage, not only to the
engine itself, but to the mill and the
employees az we'll. The shaft, which
is Of steel, IS fifteen inches. in diameter
and sixteen feet in length. It was
cracked about one third OF its length
from the south end Of the engine, and
had it broken of would have left
ten or more fest attached t6 the huge
hy-wheel, and this won shaNe most
likely been sent crashlu Trough the
floors with great damage 49,
It is thought that the accident to
the main shaft was due to loose OIL
box which gave it too much play
thereby causing it to pound. Wednes-
U0y mOIuA08 ~ Woo uVVASoA "-."' 49,
shaft was pounding quite badly ana
when the oil-box was tlghtened up 1t
pounded even worse. When the mill
shut down for the noon hour the SHAFT
was thoroughly examined and tho bad
cracks discovered. 1t was thereupon
decided not to start up again until
q new shaft could be secured and
installed, and over 800 men WERE
laid off until the repairs can be COM
pleted.
Supt. Il. O. Berg went to Mime
apolis yesterday morning, where he
located q main shaft at the Diamond
Iron Works, and the same will be
turned and shipped up at once. II y
expected to have 1t In place 20 that
the mill can be started up again about
the middle of next week. Had he
been unable to locate this new SHAFT,
IL ls doubtful whether the mill could
have been started again before two or
three weeks. :,
The planer is not effected by the
accident, as it gets its motive power
form it's own engine. r
