NEW YORK, February Is. 1871"
There has been remarkable decrease
in the number of fatalities upon the rail-
ways Of the United States airing the last
few years. which is probably due to the
adoption of improved rolling stock and
devices for the protection of passengers.
During the year 1907 there were 5000
persons killed and 1926 PEG injured in
railway accidents, of whom 641 Of the
killed and 1857 of the injured were pas
sengers: while during the last year the
total number of killed was 2,19l. reduc-
tion of nearly one-haif. and the number of
people injured was 6392O, a reduction of
nearly % per cent. The number of pas
sengers killed in 1863 was $50 and the
number injured 12.116.
The following table will show a COM
parison of the number of passengers and
employees killed and injured during the
last three years:
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-02-18

In 1907 there were 40 passengers killed
and 500 injured in train accidents, as
against only ISL killed and 1896 injured
in train accidents in 1909.
The number of employees killed in train
accidents in 1907 was 1,O11. as against
only go in 1909: and the number of en-
ployes injured in train accidents in 1851
was 1924, as against 4,s17 in 1909.

ALWAYS NOON AT
THE NORTH POLE

Speaking of the discovery OF the
north pole an article in st. Nicholas
says that at point during the "a
hours that ordinarily make up a
day, the suns height above the hor-
izon remains practically unchanged; !;
every altitude Is equal to every
other, and consequently at every in
Stant the sun is due south and on
the meridian. In other words, we
come across a curious freak that
right at the north pole there is no
north no east or west or points of
the compass in between; every di-
rection Is south and south only.
And a still more curious oddity is
that of time. The sun being always
south, 1t therefore always marks
noon. But a chronometer, wound up
and kept going, would go regularly
as 1t does in New York or London.
What would, then, its "a hours each
day signify? To answer this ques-
ton we must ask what we mean by
a day, and what is time. Time is
measured by the rotation of the
earth on it's axis. 1t takes five hours
for the earth to rotate enough to
carry the sun from the Greenwich
meridian to the New York meridian,
and another three hours before the
sun is on the meridian of San Fran
cisco. To get from one OF these ci-
ties to the other It is necessary to
travel thousands of miles. But If
we were at the pole, these three
meridians would como together, AS
noon takes place when the sun is on
the meridian, and as at the pole it |
is impossible to distinguish one mer- |
idian from the other, no observa- |
tions at the pole by astronomer or |
explorer would give the exact time, !
and the hour of the day could not |
be determined. 1t would not be !
necessary TO travel thousands OF
miles to get from the San Francisco !
meridian to that of Greenwich, for
at one and the same time we would F.
be on both meridians. At the north
pole, time has no real meaning, as
we think of it, and one being there
could never tell whether his chro-
nometer kept exact time or whether
IL was fast or slow.

ITEMS TAKEN FROM
CHEMAWA AMERICAN

The students of the Salem Indian
Training School publish a little pa
per called the Chemawa American.
It is edited by the members of the
school and as an evidence that In
dams have a vein of humor in their
blood, we produce a few of the local
items found in the last issue of the
American.
Santa Claus played a joke on
some of the girls.
We were all glad to leave the din
ing hall after two weeks Of hard
work
Louise Thornton is very fond Of
candy and cookies and she knows
where to get them, too.
Viola Ferris made flying trip to
Salem last Thursday afternoon to do
some shopping.
Joseph Moss is hauling wood this
week and may be seen chasing
squirrels through the wood yard.
Say, do you know that l can hear
Christine Boswell in her dreams,
talking about her turkey dinner?
Matilda John presented her room
mate, Iva Phillips, with very pret-
ty rag doll, which she made herself.
Any one wishing to see it, peep in
at her door and you may see 1t
hanging at the head of the bed.
Our middle-sized boys went to
Salem last Saturday evening to play
the Y. M. c. A. intermediates a
game of basketball. Our boys were
beaten by score of 35 to 13. The
gymnasium in which they played
was too short and narrow and team
work was impossible for our boys,
as they are used to a large room.
This makes It even now, as our boys
won a game from here at the
school

STOMACH DISTRESS
AND DYSPEPSIA GO

AS there is often some one in your
family who suffers an attack of indt-
gestion or some form of stomach
tDouble, why don't you keep Diapep-
sin in the house handy?
This harmeless blessing will digest
anything YOU can eat without the
slightest discomfort, and overcome
the sour. gassy stomach five minutes
after.
Tell your pharmacist TO let you
read the formula plainly printed on
these SO cent cases of Pape's Diapep-
sin, then you will readily seen why
it makes indigestion, sour stomach,
heartburn and other distress go in
five minutes and relieves at once
such miseries as belching of gas,
eructations of sour undigested food,
nausea, headaches, dizziness, consti-
patton and other stomach disorders.
Some folks have tried SO long to
find relief from Indigestion and dys-
pepsla or an out-of-order stomach
with the common, everyday cures adj
vertised that they have about made
up their minds that they have some
thing else wrong, or believe theirs
is a case of nervousness, gastritis, ca
tarrh of the stomach or cancer.
This, no doubt, is serious mis-
take. Your real trouble is, what you
eat does not digest; instead, it fer
ments and sours turns to acid, gas
and stomach poison, which putrefy
in the digestive tract and intestines,
and, besides poison the breath with
nauseous lodors.
A hearty appetite with thorough
digestion, and without the slightest
or misery of the stomach,
Is waiting for you as soon as you de-
eide to try Pape's Diapepsin.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remed ies. Deafness is caused
by an infamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube
When this tube is infamed you
have a rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be TAX
en- out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an infamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol.

That the government will drain
the lakes which have formed on the
the government project, and that it
will use much of the water thus ac-
cumulated a second time, is the an
nouncement made by Mayor Newport,
of Hermiston. He says that steps
have already been taken to lower the
water in the largest of the lakes one
foot by means of a ditch. This will
uncover the greater part of 200 acres
now under water. The remainder of
the water will be removed by means
of a pump and will be used in re-
claiming additional lands.

If your stomach, heart, or kidneys
are weak, try at least, a few doses
only of DR.. Shoop's Restorative. In
five or ten days only, the result will
surprise you. A few cents will COW

comes so quickly. DR.. Shoop
doesn't drug the stomach, nor slim
ulate the heart or kidneys. DIR.
Shoops Restorative goes directly to
the weak and failing nerves. Each
organ has it's own controlling nerve.
When these nerves fail, the depend

so universally successful. It's sue
cess is leading druggists everywhere
to give it universal preference. A

Passengers Left Behind.

Platteville News: About fifty pas
sengers enjoyed lenghthy sight seeing
excursion near Calamine, which was
not listed in the time tables. Con-
ductor Fromfeller brought his train in
to Belmont smiling as usual, the engine
was run to such point as would allow
the passengers to get on and off at Bel
mont station easily, when the train
crew suddenly discovered that there
were no passenger coaches attached to
the engine. The engine was hurried
back toward Calamine, where the
coach was picked up after allowing the
people bound for Platteville sufficient
time to study the landscape of that
section.
