F1REFIY,s ECONOMICAL LIGHT.
Scientists Hope to Find the Secret OF
This Method of Illumination.

The light of the freely is believed to
have an efficiency of virtually 100 per
cent. of the energy expended, whereas
tests indicate that the light efficiency OF
the ordinary incandescent lamp IS less
than per cent; the rest of the energy
is expended III producing heat which IS
not needed.
Inventors do not yet despair of sue
cess in initiating the irefy's economical
method of producing an illumination,
says a writer in the Philadelphia Record.
In the opinion of one eminent scientist
it is well within the range Of possibility
that he may see the transmission OF
light-producing energy entirely done
away with, and return made to some
form of portable lamp consuming an ex-
ceedingly small amount of material and
producing a ''cold," or frefylike, light.

TWENTIETH CENTURY ENGINE
TURNS OVER AND PLUNGES
300 FEET ON BACK.
TWO EMPLOYEES ARE KILLED.
Coaches Bound from Track, but Remain
in Upright Position When
Stopped.
MANY PASSENGERS ARE INJURED.

UTICA, n. Y, Jan. 25,-The engine
on the New York Central Twentieth
Century limited, easthound, turned com
pletely over about a quarter of u mile
west of st. townsville today. 1t slid 800
feet befOge il stopped. Under the engine
pits, Fireman Melvin j. II andville OF
Syracuse was crushed beyond recogni-
ton. The engineer, John ScanlOn of
Fort Hunter attempted to leap when the
engine left the rails. but he was caught
between the engine and tender and cut
and crushed in a terrible manner. None
of the coaches left the track, though the
trucks of several of them are derailed.
Most Of the passengers were thrown
from their berths and some were slightly
injured.
Throws Crossover Switch.
There is a signal tower about a quar-
ter of a mile west of the St townsville
station and from this the switches and
crossoyerS are controlled. For some rea-
son not yet explained. it was necessary
for the operators to shift the train from
track No l to track No. >, and he had
thrown the switch for the crOssOver and
set the signals
The superstition is that the signal eau
tioning Engineer ScanlOn to slow down
was not seen by him in time to bring his
train under full control, and when the
locomotive struck the cTOssOver the pom
derous machine bounded into the air,
turned upon its side in twinliling and
then as it struck one of the rails, rolled
upon its back and plowed ahead through
the rails, ties and ballest at least 300
feet.
Coaches Leave Track
The sudden twist wrenched loose the
coupling between the engine and bag
gage and mail car and this saved the
train from the ditch The heavy coaches
bounded from the track in front. but
they fell back right side up and re
manned in an upright position. The pas
sengers were mostly all asleep and some
of theme were scarcely disturbed.
No blame appears to be attached to the
tower man. Joseph Battle, for the acct
Dent, as he had set the signals in proper
time. The engineer, who apparently mis-
Judged the speed of his train, is dead.
All the coaches left the rails and they
stand at an angle. reaching from track
No. 1 to track No. 4. The passengers
have been sent forward ON other trains.

"CAROL, swEETLY CAROL"
4 New Christmas Hymn by Bishop
Coz

Bishop Cox of western New York is
the author of a Christmas hymn which
will probably take rank with the most
popular carols sung i'll America and
Britain. It has been set TO music by Sir
Charles ViIliers Stanford, the composer,
who is credited with having achieved. the
carol of the century" 1t is described
as an exquisite melody, which came as
an inspiration to the composer as he
walked through London streets. 1t was
written with Incredible quickness, the
whole being completed within eighteen
hours. The carol is not one sim
pie melody monotonousIy repeated for
each of the six verses, but each verse
contains a slight variation. The last
verse is sung largely in unison with
bold organ accompaniment. The title of
the hymn is 'CaroI, Sweetly Carol"

BIBLE IS RULED OUT.
1t Will No Longer Be Read i'm Illinois
Public Schools.

Springfield, ILL.,. July 1.-The Illinois
supreme court in a decision has deliv
cred a sweeping blow at all forms OF
religious services and instruction IN
the common schools of the state. The
decision bars from the classroom the
Bible, prayers, and hymns of every
sort
Although the court frequently has
ruled on the various features of this
question it has never before gone
squarely on record. The decision was
', ritten by Justice Dunn. Justices
their opinion has not been filed.
The decision was given in a. case
brought by the Catholic residents of
Winchester, Scott county, to prevent
Gaily religious exercises in the schools
o. that district In the lower court
they were refused a writ eff mandam US,
but the supreme court reverscs the
lower court. The petition set up that
the pupils were required each day to
hear read portions from the King James
version of the Bible, that they recited
the King James version of the Lord s
hymns, one of which was mentioned
Grace Enough for Me-"
Religious Liberty Violated.
The exercises mentioned" the court
says, constitute worship. They are the
ordinary forms of worship usually
practiced by Protestant Christian de-
nominations. Their compulsory per-
Torrance would be a violation of the
constitutional guaranty of the free ex-
ercise and enjoyment of religious pro-
fession and worship. One does not en-
joy the free exercise of religious wor-
ship who is compelled to join in any
form of religious worship.
If tn ESQ ex arciseS of reading the BIZ
bic, joining in prayer and the singing
of hymns were performed in a church
there would be no doubt of their relig-
lcus character, and that character is
rot changed by the place of their per-
formance. If the petitioners children
are required to join in the acts of
Worship, as alleged ir. the petition,
against their consent and against the
wishes of their parents. they are de-
prlVed of the freedom of religious Wor-
snip guaranteed to them by the consti-
tuition.
The wrong arises not out of the par
tlcuiar version of the Bible or form of
prayer used. whether that found in the
Douay or the King James version, or
the particular songs sung. but out of
the compulsion to join in any form of
worship. The free enjoyment of re-
ligicus worship includes freedom not to
worship.
