ACCIDENT OCCURS ON CURVE

Fort Wayne, Ind, Sept. 22.--Thirty'
nine persons were killed and twenty
or more fatally injured when a south
bound limited and a northbound local
car on the Wabash Valley traction line
Oollided near Kingsland, just north oil
this city.
The accident occurred on a short
curve and many of the bodies were SO
mangled that identification was diff
cult
Hardly any of the passengers in the
two cars escaped injury, but the less
seriously hurt gave what assistance
they could, and in a few moments
thirty-six bodies, badly mutilated
were carried to the roadsid" ana
placed along the track. Three others
were so pinioned in the debris that
they could not be removed till wreck
ing crews arrived upon the scene.
The northbound car was loaded with
people going to the county fair at
Fort Wayne. and among them were
many women and children.
What caused the accident is not
known, but it is supposed that there
was misunderstanding Of orders. The
car carrying the people to the fair was
an extra. II is believed that its posi-
tion on the road was not definitely
known to the limited, and. running on
its own time, was not apprised of its
approach.
The curve where the wreck occurred
is one OF the shortest on the Wabash
Valley line and there was hardly a
moment after the local car was sighted
before the crash came. Even the mo
tormen on the two cars had not time
to Jump. so close were they together
when sighted.
The scenes following the wreck
were peculiarly pathetic, as mothers
and fathers saw the mangled forms OF
their children taken from the wreck
age and a husband saw wife or
wife saw a husband taken out so man
gled that Identification could be made
only from the clothing.
Physicians and nurses were rushed
to the scene of the wreck from this
city and other places on the line, and
many OF the injured are now in hos
pitfalls. Some of them died before med
ical attention could be given and two
died while being conveyed TO the hos
pitfalls

known.
II is understood that rigorous cen

THIS BANANA COSTLY
Media Man Gets Two Years For Steal
ing One.


ing One.
Media, Pa, Sept. 22.-For stealing
a banana of huckster wagon, Frank
Pennewell, a Chester colored man,
was sentenced by Judge Isaac John
son to two years in the county jail at
Media. 1t was rather an expensive
banana for Frank, and besides he took
II just for joke, he says.
The banana was the property OF
Henry Tilden, a colored huckster, who
also accused Pennewell Of assault and
battery. Pennewell pleaded guilty to
stealing the banana, but denied the
assault, and was tried on the first
charge.
One of the hard features about the
affair is that Pennewell didn't even
get taste of the banana and he will
probably not have an opportunity to
enjoy the tropical fruit for some time.
as bananas are not on the menu card
at the Media jail.

Good
Form

Women who are polite In practically
all other places sometimes are posi-
lively rude at card tables. 1t would
perhaps help them to be self controlled
and civil when the game is going
against them to remember that, after
all, 1t is only a game and, though they
lose, their defeat is only temporary.
However different one may be In
fact when one lie losing, and few per
sons are as interested when the cards
are against them, 1t is a matter Of
good breeding to pretend as much en-
Joy men as when success is on her
side. 1t is not polite to be snappy and
dull just because one is losing. Such
conduct makes the winning couple ex-
tremely uncomfortable.
Courtesy, at all times desirable, at
cards should be regarded as impera.
tive. To comment ~unfavorably upon
the playing Of a hand is the height
of Ill manners and need not be excused
on the ground Of instructing the ig-
norant. A woman who might sincerely
wish to play a better game does not
care to be criticised and drilled IN pub
lie, and the one giving information is a
self appointed teacher who is not de-
sired.
At a bridge luncheon recently the
players at one table were amused to
hear at the completion of every hand
a lecture by one of the guests. The
woman who talked played well-all
admitted that-but the afternoon was
not a class In card playing. 1t was a
social meeting where each woman was
supposed to stand upon the merits Of
her game. The woman who did the
talking was not disagreeable, nor did
she select one person for her victim.
Impartially she instructed the whole
table, with the result that when she
had gone at the end of the afternoon
those remaining later declared that she
had almost spoiled their game.
The correct thing for her to have
done was to remain quiet, no matter
how poor the playing of others
might be. II she were asked any ques-
lions as to what to do she might have
answered briefly and c~ourteously, but
she should have remembered hat the
afternoon was one of relaxation and
amusement, not Of instruction.
The woman who loses her temper
with her partner commits an unpar-
donabie breach vi sooa manners. No
is 1t enough to control the tongue alone
1T such times. Manner as well must
be courteous, and one who cannot re-
gard these dictates OF good breeding
should never play cards.

who wanted very much to d o good to the poor people II the town in which
she lived But she ws also very modest and she did not want it to be known
that she did the good. She wanted to go around and talk to the poor people
and find out what they needed but she did not like her friends 10 know
about It, But that was a hadt thing to do for II course, when the poo folks
received food or clothing " money to pay doctors bills Or money to pa h
et they praised the lady and told every ne about it
$50 she did not know what to do 1t seemed to her that she must give up
Der good work. and let others do it for her. One day she said Ito herself. oh,
IL I coNld only be invisible while / ar going around, then / could leave the
good things for the poor folks without their knowing who did it,, She said
this to herself but out loud. Nobody heard it, however, but a fairy who
happened to be flying past in the air. She al invisible herself and it vas
N easy matter forh her to maxi the lady invisible.
"The next day the fairy called on the lady 1 hear you wish to make
seen
Yes said the lady, but 1 can't imagine how you know 1t. I am sure L
never spoke to any on about IT.
"tWen, said the fairy, we fairies know everything If You really want to
become Invisible 1 can tell you how. Always carry with you this package of
fern seed II you have it about you M person win De able to see yu. The
fairies can do so, but that need not bother you, for they will never interfere
with you
THE lady thanked the fairy. took the packet IT fern seed and put 1t into
her pocket I think I'll try it now she said to the fairy. DO 30, said she.
when the lady vent out into the street she wa aaomshed to find that n o

and, indeed, they really did not zee her. She able to go into and out Of
housesw without any n noticing her, only, of course she had TO be careful not
