bLAMEs CREW OF
STALLED TRAIN
Clearly Responsible for Dufheld
Wreck Horror, Says Engineer Who
Has Made Investigation.

From Grand Trunk conductor who
has made some inquiries concerning
the frightful wreck at Duffield,
wednesday night, on his own hook.
The Times has received some inter
esting information bearing on the
cause OF the smash-up. According
to this information the blame for the
accident rests not on Engineer Spen-
Ger, or train No. 4, but with the train
crew OF No. IA, primarily.
II IL the custom, the conductor says.
to cut of the dining car. bearing the
tail lights OF No. IA. the train struck
by No. 4, In Durand and place 1t en- a
sidetrack. This was done wednesday
night, he declares, and the tail lights.
instead of being placed in position on
the rear end OF the Pullman, were
simply set down. still burning, In the
rear vestibule of the car. where they
could not possibly be seen by the en-
gineer OF the following train.
According to this conductor the train
rules require that In using torpedoes
to warn an engineer of danger ahead
three must be used Two of them
should be placed so feet apart not less
than 500 yards from the end Of the
stalled train or danger point. what
ever 1t may be. The employe charged
with the duty of placing them should
then walk 100 feet toward his own
train and deposit the third. remaining
with it until called in. Engineer Spen-
Ger declares that he heard but one
torpedo, which signifies nothing to
an engineer, and this one, The Times
informant asserts, was found to have
exploded 400 feet from the end OF the
stalled train. To stop train running
even at ordinary speed within 400 feet
Is an impossibility.
There Is also q possibility that the
dispatcher's ONCE was at fault. No
train can pass Durand without clear
ance orders. Under the rules Of the
road. No. had no right to leave Du-
rand until No. IA had passed Duffield.
No. IA had not passed Duffield, yet No.
4 was not held at Durand, probably
because there was no board up rs
there should have been. 1t Is reason
able to suppose that Spencer would
have stopped If the board had been
set up, for 1t Is a criminal offense to
run an order board.
1T looks as though the accident
were the result in the first place OF the
hiring Of incompetent men to take the
places Of those who went on strike,
and any attempt to shift the blame on
the engineer is wrong" says the con-
ductor. Chairman Glasgow. of the
state railroad commission. told Gen.
eral Superintendent Ehrke. of the
western division of the Grand Trunk,
early In the strike that he would hold
him responsible IL any accidents re-
suited from the employment of incom-
petent men. 1t would seem that he
now has an opportunity to make good
his word"

To Hold Second Novena.
This years novena was one OF the
most largely attended In the history
OF the church; In fact, all who desired
an opportunity TO seek blessings were
unable TO be accommodated Pilgrims
have been coming TO see FIR. Renaud
since the closing Of the novena, and
SO urgent has the call come for an
other service of the kind that he has
decided TO conduct another series for
prayers and petitions to the good
saint. This additional service, or no
vena, will begin on Tuesday, Sept. 8,
and last until All Saints day, Nov. I.
Services will be held only on Tues
day OF each week. however In this
time FRI Renaud thinks all will be
allie TO get attention. Among the APP
plicants who interviewed FIR. Renaud
since the closing OF the regular no
vena in July, were many from outside
places.
Asked what portion OF the Scrip
lures the novena was based on. FIR.
Renaud replied by quoting the follow
ing words from the seventh chapter
OF st. Matthew. seventh verse:
ASK, and II shall be given you;
seek. and We shall find: knock. and II
shall be opened unto YOU"
Those words" said FIR. Rennud,
"are from Christs sermon on the
Mount In our novena we pray to God
In the Sons name. for what we want.
and then petition St. Anne to inter
cede for us. In this way we feel that
our prayers are the more effective.
Certain 1t is that much good results
from the petitions.
FIR. Renaud has been In charge OF
st. Anne's parish for the past three
years and the church has made un-
usual Roadway during his incumbency.
This is the first time in the history OF
the parish that second novena shall
be held In one year.

Why should our farmers spend theii money for hay when at every turn in this county, there is waste land enough to abundantly supply every need for hay?

Lucrative Arkansas farm.

To one familiar with the little farms of New England and the pinehed bounties which nature usually metes out to her hard working husbandmen. it was in deed a revelation to ride over one of Arkansas great plantations. Thirty-fiye hundred acres of the most luxuriant cotton, cultivated and kept as free from weeds and grasses as city truck farm. five hundred acres of strong. thrifty corn, and three hundred acres of Ithe very finest alfalfa, timothy and clover meadows ones eyes ever feasted on, represent the 1910 crop of Mir. Drivers plantation. Southern born. and naturally ex- pected to conform to Southern custom in renting his land to ten ants and living life of idle ease. MT. Driver Will have none of this. Accustomed to arise in the summer at $50, he rouses his several overseers, wbo in turn gives the morning alarm among the hun dreds of dusky field-hands, and there is something doing with MT. Driver until sunset.
 His cotton crop this fall will be worth fully quarter million dollars
 just think of it. ye who are ac- customed to think of Arkansas as a place of no account. He believes that it is much cheaper and better to raise his corn and a a'falfa forage. the latter yielding five to six tons per acre, than It is to buy, and cer- tainly the exemplification which he showed is proof positive of the fact. With hundreds of negro wofkmen, both men and women, working side by side in the field and with scores of others pensioned off, too old or young to work, there was a new aspect of Southern life and ot the relationship of the white man and his black helpers which was an inspiration to the Northernef.
 MT. Driver knows every colored worker on his plantation by name. and furthermore, he adopts very important feature in farm econo- mics and that is to let each team ster own his own mule or team. No other "nigger' is allowed to drive any mule but the one as signed to him. So the drivers not only use the animals more hu- namely. but they feel a pride in seeing that the mules as we'll as the harness and outfit are properly cared for. Frank F.
