Really to be a hypocrite must re-
uuire horrible strength of character.
An ordinary man such as you or gen
orally fails at last because he has not
enough energy to be man. But the
hypocrite must have enough energy to
be two men. 1t Is said that a liar
should have a good mer'ory. But a
hypocrite must have not. only a good
memory of the past, but a consistent
and creative vision of the future; his
unreal self must be 80 far real to him.
The perfect hypocrite should be trim
fly of artistic talent. He must be a
novelist like Dickens to create false
character. He must be an actor like
Garrick to act it. And he must be a
business man like Carnegie to profit
by 1t. Such a genius would not be
easy to find in any country.-G. K

As DEAD IN WRECK
Rock Island Train Leaves Track
and PIunges Into Ditch.
Occupants of Day Coach. Smoker
and Pullman Killed and Manned
and Many Badly Mutilated.

Marshalltown, Ia, March 22.-For-
ty-fve persons were killed and 35 were
injured, many of them fatally, in a
wreck of Chicago, Rock Island &
Pacific train four and half miles
north of Green Mountain, Iowa, at
8:16 a. m. today.
The train. which was consolidation
of No. 10. from 's3,ssogo, and No. 81,
from St. Louis, boond for Minneapolis,
was being detourea over the tracks of
the Chicago Great Western road.
Running at about 80 miles an hour
in a cut north of Green Mountain, it
struck spread rail, it is believed.
The pilot locomotive jumped the
track and, with terrific force, was bur-
led in the embankment of soft clay.
A second locomotive, coupled behind
the first, rolled over and the sudden
stop hurled all the rear cars forward.
A coach, a smoker and a Pullman
car were smashed to splinters, almost
all the occupants being killed or in
jured. The superstructure of the Pull
man was literally shaved off and was
jammed like ramrod through the
smoker and day coach.
Many passengers were killed out
right. Heads we're severed from bod
les and arms and legs were cut off.
The wreckage was crimson with
blood, some Of the bodies being crushed
beyond recognition in the mass Of
twisted rails and splintered cars.
few of the passengers were found still
living with rod or splinter impalinf
them in the wreck. Decapitated bod
les were picked up and it was almost
impossible to assert correctly the dis
membered parts.
The wreck occurred at point diff
cult of access. Such bodies as coule
be pulled out were stretched out in al
adjoining pasture.
First attention was given to thu
wounded. Their cries coming from
beneath the cars were pitiable. Fort
unately. the wreckage did not take fire
The rescue party, reinforced later OIL
by wrecking trains carrying nurses
and surgeons sent FROM the neares
available points, worked all day ant
until long after dark.
The injured were rushed to a hospital
several of them dying on the way.

DOUBLE WRECK ON o. R. g.. N

Box Cars Demolished.

Box Cars Demolished.
Pendleton, March 22.-Two men are
dead, two engines demolished, and FIVE
loaded box-cars, with their contents,
are piled in confused mass, as a result
of double wreck, the first in the his
tory of the o. R. & NJ, which occurred
eight miles east of Pendleton at 7:45
O. clock yesterday morning. The dead
are Edward Hopple, La Grande, Or,

eer Risk and Fireman Hopple, was
running light'-without a train
from Meacham to Umatilla, after hav-
ing helped extra freight No. 1856 up
the mountain from La Grande. In
rounding a nine-degree curve at a point
where the track skirts the Umatills
river on one side and runs under high
bluff on the other, the engine left the
track and plunged into the bluff.
AS both the engine and the tender
were clear of the rails, the block sig.
nal registered a "clear track" to the
oncoming freight, 20 minutes behind
the engine. The crew of the latter die
not know of their danger until they
dashed around the sharp curve and
