Wreck in Railroad Yard.

A misplaced switch in the railroad yard opposite the north end of the freight house caused the express, due in this city from Worcester ct 9.20 a. m., 70 crash into string of freight cars on a siding, Monday morning. No one was fatally hurt but several were more or less severely injured.
 The list of injured follows: A. J. Dustin, Everett, Mass severely cut on forehead, chin and left wrist and hand; also suffering from shock.
 John Deaveny, Putnam, severe cut on head.
 Samuel Goldberg, Worcester, arm wrenched
 w. J. Callihan, Worcester, slight in- jury to arm.
 J. k. Quinn, Worcester, slight in- jury to shoulder.
 Nathan Morrill,, Worcester, bruised and shaken up.
 Railroad Employees - John Ryan, Webster, brakeman, cut under eye.
 A. J. Dutton, Webster, baggagemas- ter, back strained.
 Edward Sparks, engineer, Webster, bruised on head and leg.
 Frank Koch, Putnam, head cut.
 The train was on time and as it was nearing the station was not running at high rate of speed. When 1t ran off the main line there was no time to stop as the line of freight cars extended al. most to the switch. The crash was heard at the station. The front of the engine was damaged, the tender raised and wedged against the baggage car door, and the end of the first freight car demolished. Passengers were get ting ready to leave the train as Put nam is the end of the run. Dustin, the most severely injured, was thrown <! through the glass in the car door. I Koch, the only one not on the train to be injured, was stransferring freight and was knocked down by the impact | Dustin was taken on a stretcher to Hotel Chickering and doctor sum moned. It was nearly an hour before he regained consciousness.
 The freight cars, when struck, wert shunted down upon the main line anc fisd the New York express, which wal due, happened along . few minutes

F,remen's Biz Night.

Firemen's night at the Bradley The atre, last Thursday night, was big success. There were 907 paid admis- sions, and as Manager NJ brill donated half of the gross receipts, the muster fund was swelIed s45.35. The citizens as well as the firemen appreciate the generosity of the man agement.
 The firemen sat in body in the cen ter of the house and entertained with songs until time for the show to begin. As late members dropped in they were given a hand, and when Chief Wilson came down the aisle, the men arose and gave three lusty cheers.
 The firemen's orchestra furnished music, and Oyila Guertin, of Eagle Hose company, sang in fine voice. An illustrated song, 1.-The Man with the Ladder and the Hose," made special hit. Feature pictures were "The To. kio Fire Department and "The Fire Department of New York" Pictures of Chief Wilson, Mansfield Hose com. pany, with their wagon, the outing al Alexanders Lake, and Pop Tourtellotte with his "hot dog" outfit, were greeted with cheers and applause.
 The vaudeville numbers were good and were well received. Everything passed of smoothly, and the evening was enjoyed by everybody.

loved, not only by the members of the church where they labored but by all who went to hear them.
 We are sure the people of this com munity will give them hearty well come and bid them God.speed tn their labors of love while conducting these series of meetings.
 The Pastor of the Baptist church, Rev. J. R. Stubbert, sent out most cordial invitation to the other churches of the city to meet with them and share the blessings that may flow down upon each and every service.
 The Baptist church thus invites all. whether they belong to churches or not, to come and partake with them Of the choicest gift of Gods kingdom, even the salvation to all by the atone ment made on Calvary. All are well come, and 1t Is to be hoped the. multi tudes will avail themselves of this Op- portunity of hear these men, commis- stoned of God and sent out under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. The preaching of the glorious gospel of the Son of God--is Gods own means of saving lost world.
 Let all come and hear the good news.

Advent Christian Church Notes.

The accounts of famine and the star ving millions, in China, touched the hearts of our people. An appeal from the pulpit, last Sunday morning, brought out hearty response, and as result sl02.35 has been raised and for- waroed, through the Red Cross Socle- ty, to aid the famine inflicted in Chi ma. It is said that one cent day will keep one of the sufferers from starving
 It would seem as if these cries of us- tress opened to the Christian church o' this country an opportunity to do the very best kind of mission work by ex- hibting the Christ-like spirit: relieve the suffering physical man and he will be ready to listen to the Gospel story.
 Next Sunday morning the Pastor will speak on the subject of Human Destiny"
 In the evening the subject will be "The Holy Spirit" By whom givenf When given? To whom given? How enjoyed?
 Come in friends and hear.

Willimantic Queens and Knights Visit
 Putnam

A delegation of twenty-three, repre- senting the K. o. K. A. and the c. Of A., of Willimantic, came from that city, last Wednesday, and spent most of the day in Putnam. The visit proved to be all that was anticipated, and the fellowship and good cheer was enjoyed by both hosts and guests. In the forenoon, the degree of Esquire was conferred upon seven of the visit- ors. In the afternoon contests of skill, patience and endurance were tried out in Hammond Hall. The Basket Ball game excited the greatest interest, and while the team from Willimantic was out-classed by the Putnam boys, on account of both age and size, the visit. ors showed that they could put up a good game and showed the real sports. man $ spirit, being able to play clean game even under defeat. The basket ball was followed by potato, egg and club races between the Queens, and q standing broad and long jump, three legged and endurance races between the Knights.
 A Colonial supper was served in the Gym, little hatchets being given to the visitors through the generosity of one of our Putnam men, whose hearty sym pathy with our young people is often in evidence.
 In the evening there was an exhibi- tion ,of the working of the ritual by the different organizations. The re- marks after the supper, and in the eve nIng by the Willimantic Pastor, MT. Parker, Mrs Thayer, Messrs. Warner, Child and Perry and Mrs. c. D. Sharpe, indicated little the favor in which these organizations are held.

In Melrose, Mass, the work deepened and broadened, and on last sunday the Congregational church in that place kindly opened their doors and gave the Evangelists a hearty greeting for the 8 o'clock meeting. Evangelist Currie, on this occasion, related his wonderful experience "From News.boy to the Pulpit"

Mrits Served in Arnold Case.

The Secend step taken by George F.. Holbrook, trustee of the bankrupt es- tate of Ernest NJ. Arnold to recover aS- sets for the estate, started last week by the serving of five writs of complaint. Those served with process were as fol- lows: C. Fred and Percy l.. Water man, Putnam, C. S. Andem, w. R.. Spencer, North GroSvenordale, and Charles $. Blackmar, Wauregan, These suits are the result of several hearings held before Referee Bowen of Willimantie in which fifteen or twen- ty witnesses were examined to disclose facts tending 10 show that certain Of Arnold's investors had been made pre- ferred creditors.
 All these writs were brought under the provisions of the national bank ruptcy act relating 10 preferences made by bankrupts by turning over proper. ty or money to certain creditors with in four months of the institution of the bankruptcy proceedings, in full or par. tial payment or security for antecen. dent debts, and for which there was no contemporaneous consideration.
 The complaint in which Mir. Andem, who is the agent of the Grosvenordale companys mills at North Grosvenor- dale, is defendant, alleges that Arnold was owing Andem S22, ,642 on June 3, lQ1D and bod baan Sn oxpipy hin, lfnr some time previous thereto, and that on June Sd Mir. Arnold delivered to MT. Andem a note for S22, 300, in part payment of such indebtedness, the note being secured by mortgage on seventeen different tracts of land situ- ated III Putnam. It states that Mir. Arnold was duly adjudicated bank. rupt and that Mr. Holbrook was duly appointed trustee of his bankrupt es- tate on Nov. l9, 1910; that on the Sd of June MT. Arnold was and for some time previous thereto had been insolv- ent and in failing circumstances; that he delivered this mortgage security to MT. Andem at q time when Mir. An dem knew or had cause to believe that MT. Arnold was insolvent or m failing circumstances.
 The complaint also states that Mir. Andem acted through himself and also by and through Frank F. Russell of Putnam as his agent and attorney. MT. Holbrook, as trustee, asks, as equitable relief, first that the mortgage be set aside, second that the title to such property be declared to be in such |trustee free from the incumbrance of said mortgage. and third any further equitable relief deemed necessary in the discretian of the court.
 The complaints against the other four defendants are similar to that against Mir. Andem, except that the preference complained of is the pay ment of cash in part payment of exist ing indebtedness, and within the for bidden period of four months, and at times when the several defendants knew or had reasonable cause to be- lieve MT. Arnold to be in failing cir- cumstances and insolvent; and in each case the relief asked for is money dam- ages.
 The amounts of the several alleged preferences are as follows: In the suit against c. Fred Waterman, $l,16719; Percy l.. Water man, $70O.3l; Warren R. Spencer, $40, and Charles $. Black mar $200.

JUST OR UNJUST.

In February, 1909, The Thlin- get printed an article under the caption of Tnlinget Jurispru- dence that gave to the readers some idea of how justice was, and is yet. administered among Alaskan natives when they are left to settle their own ditferen- ceS. Their laws or customs and their methods of procedure were certainlypeculiar, and, according to the white mans way of req soning, exceedingly illogical.
 It is very doubtful, however, if the application of tF cir legal system presents to the minds of their paler brethren greater anomaly than some of the pro- cesses oflaw and the modes Ofpro- cedure employed by government al officials in their enforcement, do to the native mind, and, in- deed, to the minds of some Alas kans who are not natives.
 Recently an officer connected with the Customs Service dropped down on our little town. In less than twenty-four hours, acting as plaintiff, prosecuting attorney, judge and jury, which of course is legal, he assessed fines of from two hundred to five hundred and fifty dollars on the owners of a number of motor boats and sailed eagerly away to the next "camp" where motor boats dare toeXist. In three cases, and one of these was that of a native who cannot read Eng fish. but who has as good stand ing both financially and morally
The Thlinget., 1911-05-01

in the community as could be de- sired, the fine imposed was S25O because each of the three boats failed to have aboard two copies of a little blue book of Pilot Rules. Of course the officer did not collect the money. He re- quired only that each man give bond in the sum of the fine i'm posed, with two suretieS who must be citizens of the United States. This fine may be remit ted or mitigated at the discretion of the Secretary of Commerce and Labor.
 Even though the fines are fully remitted, imagine, if you can, from the stand pointof the native people, the justice of this proce- dure. Here is a native who more than a year ago, when his boat was in process of construction, got a friend to write to the prop CT authorities asking for direc- tiOns about equipping his launch. The reply came and he equipped his boat accordingly. He was not instructed to have any Pilot Rules aboard. In fact he never heard of and knew nothing of the ne- cessity of having the little blue pamphlets until the inspector bounced upon him and informed him that he was under a fine of S25O because the Pilot Rules were not in his possession. What though the launch in question is but the family carriage! What though it is equipped fully with proper lights, fire extinguisher, whistle, and other mechanical accessories! What though the owner has pi- loted in the perilous straits,

channels, and passages of south eastern Alaska waters for thirty yearSl What though he cannot read the Pilot Rules! What though the law in question had never in any way been made pub- lie in the community These avail nothing. The owner of that motor boat has transgreSSed no, he wanted conformity unto the law. He must suffer for the of his rash actlesS- ness of not knowing.
 The native people do not Ques- tion the authority of the govern ment. They have tried to keep all laws probably with more sin cerity than have others. But they are almost as ready as are those of a lighter color to resent punishment for a first otfense when they were in no way noti- fled of a change in the regula- tions until the punishment was upon them.
 True, the fines may be remit ted. Nevertheless an injustice has been done even though the law allows it. And, as if it were not enough that law-abiding na- tives should be required to give bond, they are compelled further to get as sureties citizens; cjti- zenS, mind you, of their own country; CITIZENS of the country in which they themselves were born and under whose flag they have been reared, It matters not how much property the na- tives may have; how good a standing they may have in com how modern their homes how civilized their lives may
