Last Night
CATASTROPHE WAS THE LARGEST

a Dozen Undertakers Worked .All Last
Night Preparing the Bodies for
Burial and Gathering Clues for
Identification.

Marshalltown, Iowa, March o.
Hundreds Of people gathered today
before the undertaking establishment
where the forty-four victims of the
Rock Island railway wreck are laid
out. Relatives and friends mingled
with the curiousity seekers who SEEM
ed scarcely less eager to catch sight
Of the unfortunates who had SO sud-
denly perished.
Two more victims died during the
night bringing the list of the known
dead to forty-four and making the
catastrophe the greatest in the his
tory of the state. Four additional
bodies were identified during the
night, leaving seven still unknown.
All during the night a dozen UNDER
takers, some of them from neighbor-
ing towns. worked preparing the
bodies for burial and seeking informa-
ton that would lead to identification.
The condition of the bodies made the
task almost impossible in some cases.
The clothing had been torn from
many, leaving almost no clue from
that source.

Railroad company paid off employees for
the greater part of the back time that
was held against them. Many thousands
of dollars were paid out by the arrange
ment which had laid for years in many
instances in the Golfers OF the company.
The beneficial effect of this extra pay
was very marked in the volume of bust
ness done by the merchants and proved
boon to those who were a little behind
in their obligations.
Under the old system a new employe
had to wait nearly six weeks to receive
his first pay, which worked a hardship

A Frenchman is reported to have in
vented a real puncture-proof tire. 1t is
not unlike the tires now in use, the only
difference being that the inner tire is en-
cased in thin but tough steel tube. The
steel is said to be as flexible as rubber,
but is SO tough that even if a nail pehe-
trated the outer rubber tire it would not
do more than dent the steel casing en-
closing the inner tube. He claims that the
process of making the steel flexible viii
revolutionize the world; that he can make
steel ropes and cords with all the hexi-
bility of cotton and hemp goods, and
even has dreams of steel sewing threads.
If he keeps on maybe we will soon be

Prices Increase and Wages De
crease in England.

Prices are rising everywhere,
though in many things they have
fallen recently Ia the United States.
But in Great Britain, where ,ha
cost of living has been going up,
wages have been going down. From
report recently published il is
showa that 5000, 900 people. cut oi
the United Kingdoms total popula
tioa of $4,000, 900, are paupsrs,
and another 10, 900, 900 are just on
the line separating the sufficiently
fed from the semi-starvlug. or the
7, 900, 600 inhabitants of London,
the latest official statistics set down
2 1900, 900 as liviRg in poverty. Ba-
con, the national breakfast dish, has
risen about 10 cents a pound In six
years, and rump steak S cents a
pound, willis pork, veal, eggs, veg
etables and pretty much everything
needed for the workingman have
greatly increased in prices, which
are above the average of those in the
United States.
Rents for workingmen's homes
have So advanced that a laberer
with his family occupying a single
room in a Whiteehapel cellar pays a
weekly rental of about SI.5o. A
suburban home of about FIVE rooms,
an hour from the heart of London,
brings SIS month rent. And
these houses are without furnaces,
bath room, steam heat or other
modern conveniences known to al
most every New York family. Oae.
half of the workers are paid less
than 40 shi iings or S. weekly. That
is the Official British estimate, and
includes men, women and children.
For this wage employers usually re-
quire ten 10 thirteen hour work
day. These facts are according to
official British reports.

Tne trial of the great sugar frauds
in New York against the govern

much like some cf the high up
fellows are likely to come In for
their share. They had a regular
system of devices for swindling the
government in weights. Now
several of the employees who worked
the devices are on the stand giving
the whole snap away. These swind-
lsrs should all be sent to the peni-
Tertiary. They care but little 70,

So when the verdict of guilty
came il came as surprise.
Universal sentiment seems to be
that that was q good jury and did
its duty well.
This ease shows again the ex.
tremss to which the dictates of
fashion aAd greed for money will
lead men.
DR.. Hyde had plenty of money
for any ordinary style Of living but
not enough to keep at the top Of
the ultra set.
He desired to be first and must
have money. He had no scruples
as to how he get it. Life was
nothing when it stood In the way OF
his ambition. But he will now
have time to reflect on the error OF
his ways. Again has been demon
strated the fact that wealth and
position cannot always ward off
the consequences of violated law.

Still Ways the Earth.

Really, what lot of worry and
bother over nothing. Haley,
comet has come and gone, and we
are still here. This weird celestial
visitor was not so unfriendly as
many had anticipated. With q
gentle hlrt of its impudent tail it
spurned the weary old earth aud
left it rolling along in its path
around the sun in apparently as
good condition as before. The
comet is now beyond the point
where it could harm US, even if it
wanted to, and there wsR ne indica-
ton at any time that it entertained
other than the best Of feeling
toward US.
But 1t certainly was a rare ex-
perience. 1t is not recorded that
the human family ever underwent
just this experience before. Doubt
less the earth has passed through
comets tails, but that must have
been thousands of years ago.
Thanks to the scientists, we were
forewarned and were prepared for
only harmless phenomena. The
