]. W. CHRISTAL
SERIOUSLY INJURED

emu COlliS1On ldSI SATURDAY dIteI"
noon, near Navajo, coming west
from Gallup, when the local
freight he was running crashed
into the rear of another freight
train. AS he has been uncon-
scious most of the time since,
the exact cause OF the accident
has not yet been determined.
His fireman, whose name is
Dewey, escaped with slight
bruises. 1t is said that Mr..
Christal sustained several brok-
en- ribs, and his upper pectoral
region was badly crushed. 1t
was at first thought that he
would not survive his wounds,
though only hasty exam1na-
tion was possible after he reach
ed Albuquerque, and later re-
ports have it that he is some
what better and that he has a
good chance of recovering.
Although the accident occurred
early Saturday afternoon, the
injured man did not reach Albu-
querque until / 40 Sunday morn
ing, when the relief train, after
being held at Isleta tor all the
west bound passenger trains,
finally arrived.
None of the men in the caboose
which MIR. Christal's engine
struck were injured.
The railroad men of the Santa
Fe coast lines are planning some
method of expressing their ap-
probation to Dr. N. l.. McLaugh-
lin of Findley, Ohio, for his yeo-
man service in behalf of Engineer
Christal in the Santa Fe wreck
at Navajo last week. DR.. Nc
Laughlin happened to be travel
ing on eastbound train No. 4,
when the limited came up to the
scene of the wreck. Hearing that
a trainman had been injured he
Immediately lett his berth in the
car, went to him, and admins
tered to his injuries. Not only
this, but he stayed with MIN on
the relief train until the train
reached Albuquerque. He con-
tinued east on the limited on
Sunday. Many of the railroad
men in this city expressed them
selves in generous terms of the
kindly work of DR.. Mclaughlin.
Mr.. Christal is one of the old
est railroad men in the service
out of Winslow, coming here
years ago with his family from
Las Vegas, n. NJ, where they
resided before coming to Wins
low. For the past six years Mr..
Christal has been running on the
local from Winslow to Gallup
and return, making his regular
trips every day. His many Wins
low friends regret his misfortune
and hope for a speedy recovery.
Captain and Mrs. Henry War
rem were visitors here last Sat-
urday. Mr.. Warren came here
especially to see Mr.. Thos. w.
Wilby, representing the govern
ment and eastern concerns as
special agent of public roads,
who is going thru this section
in an automobile, locating the
best route for the transconti-
mental highway. Mr.. Warren is
one of the hardest workers we
have for good roads in Navajo
county and it was much thru
his efforts, thru correspondence
and otherwise that MIR. Wilby
came thru this section of the
country on his inspection tour.

SANTA FE PLANS
MONSTER ENGINE


class recently put in service, h
Santa Fe expects to build new
monster Of the rails that in COM
prais IN will make the present
Mallet type seem a mere pigmy.
1t is the plan to build Mallet
with three engines connected.
The present type has two con
nected.
To operate a locomotive larger
than the 3O03 and 1904, which
are now helping trains mount
the steep Cajon grade, appears
almost impossible, but the Santa
Fe is preparing TO build the new
engine one-third greater in size
For several weeks there have
been rumors of the plan, and c.
T. RIPLEY, assistant engineer OF
test, now makes the official an
nouncementof the expectations of
the company.
He can see no reason, he says,
why there should not be four en-
gines built together, operated
by one crew, and a tonnage cap
acity of twice the present NAL
lets.
Locomotive construction,
Notwithstanding all that has
been achieved, is still in it's fam
cy," Mr.. Ripley is quoted as say
ing, land the Mallet type may
seem larger now, but within a
few years there WILDE still larger
typse. The mechanical officials
of the Santa Fe are now work
ing on patents by which three
enginees will becoupled together
instead of two as in the present
compound Ma1lets.
Already a number of patents
have been obtained and applica
tionstor others are pending. The
only obstacle to be surmounted
is IN conducting the different gas
es though the long tubes. We
believe we have solved this,
through in the Mallets we now
have we are experiencing some
trouble. Within few years we
expect to have triple Mallet
with this completed there seems
to be no obstable in having four
coupled into one. The time is
coming and it is not far distant
when such motive power will be
needed. - Albuquerque Journal.
The City Meat Market was
broken into this week and five
dollars in small change taken
from the register. This is the
second time that this place has
been robbed within few weeks.
The officers seem to think they
know who the guilty party is
and will probably make an ar
rest in a short time.

Catholic ladies, will be held in

claring that Japan obtained COM
mand of the Pacific by two great
wars and has now lost it, Mr..
Oishi. leader of the Kokuminto, the
popular party in Japan, issued a
manifesto calling upon the govern
ment to provide for further in

advices received last night by the
empress of China.
Mr.. Oishi said the unskillful
diplomacy of the government has
caused Japan to lose her command
of the Pacific even without fight.

clared that the safety of Japan is
jeopardized. He compared the nava
strength of Japan and the United
States, saying that America would
have thirty-siX battleships in The
Pacific by 1917, while Japan would
have thirteen or fourteen. He also
asserted that an anti-Japanese pol
icy was spreading in the United

HISTORICAL
SOCIETY gets
old RELICS

The Nevada Historical society
yesterday came into possession of
two fine old relics of the early
days in this state. One is a min
ing map of the Ely district pub
lished in 1872. Above the map is a
picture of Phoebe as it looked at
that time.
The other item is the official map
of Virginia City in 1875. 1t is a
large map some two feet and a
half by six feet and shows the To-
cation of all the important mines,
as well as the streets, squares, and
blocks and alleys of the town.
The affidavit of the county clerk
reads, Said city was duly incor-
porated in the year 1861. The great
err portion of lots plated in said
map have been improved and build
ings of a substantial character erect
ed thereon, that the location of
such site is exclusively a mineral
region
Also at the top of the map is
the following:
Henry D. Smith and John Piper,
Icing first duly sworn, deposes and
each for himself says that he is
a resident for the four years last
past, that said city is founded in
good faith and not for speculative
purposes, that there are about four
thousand inhabitants therein, that
this application is made by author
ity and direction of the mayor and
board of aldermen of said city
to secure the benefits of the laws
of congress respecting the location
of town sites upon the public lands

THE COST OF YOUR CLOTHES

Ida NJ. Tarbell. writing in the
American Magazine on the tariff,
says:
The manager of a leading New
York selling house told a repre-
sentative of this magazine last
spring that hes paid the manu-
f%acturers in America 45 cents for
the serge he bought in Holland for
26A cents. The serge costing "a
cents here he gets there for IL,
and he declares that in each case
the Holland goods are vastly better
in quality. 1t is notorious that the
cost of all clothing has steadily
advanced under conditions made
possible by the tariff" this gentle
man said, "whie the quality has
been steadily debased. See how
it works out. Today there are
numberless places where a n ar
en- buy ready made suits at from
SIS to $50. The cloth in these
suits is the same which used to he
offered in the cheapest places at SIS
to SO a suit. A few days wear
will reveal what these suits 'arc
made of. That is why so many
of the young clerks who have paid
enough out to get a good suit of
clothes look threadhare and walk
around with their collars turned
up"

". P. EARNINGS At RATE
OF 5000 PER MILE

The Western Pacific railway is
now earning at the rate of $4,000
gross per mile of road per annum.
says the Wall Street Journal.
The estimate is officially based
upon advices from California
covering car loading and traffic
reports for the months of October
and November. In these two
months the company's business
has shown up very encouragingly
and if continued on the same
basis in future months will make
possible gross revenues of between
S4,60C. 600 and So, 900, 900 per
annum in the coming year. For
an infant company which has been
officially opened up for through
traffic through an undevcloped
country, only since August % last,
the present volume of earnings
would appear to be in every respect
satisfactory.

TOBACCO USED AS MONEY

Kentucky leaf tobacco is nov
put up for the African trade. In
the interior of Africa leaf tobacco
is practically used in place of
money to barter with the natives
for their products.
The wants of the natives are
few. Food and most of their
clothing are supplied by nature.
They follow the primitive custom
of acquiring personal property il
the form of cattle, wives ar d
children. and depending on tie
children in old age for support.
They give little thought to laying
aside anything for use in illness or
old age.
In the interior, traders say, the
natives often refuse money in
eX change for their products. but
will take tobacco, spirits, cotton
goods, etc. In fact, in some parts
of the interior tobacco is an
absolute necessity lin trading with
the natives.
This tobacco is generally .ret.ed
in smaller bundles so that the
African merchants a figure out
how the distribution of this ;obacco
would calculate, anu to facilitate
those calculations the tobacco is
tied in various styles, that is, so
many bundles to the pound. from
four to ten as desired. The relying
and manipulation of Kentucky leaf
has become as specialized as the
manufacture of tobdcco.-Ihc

A TURBULENT VOLCANO

The central or main crater of
Taal is nearly round. Its diameter
on al air line north and south is
6,233 feet and the east west
diameter 1916 feet. The edge of
this crater is somewhat irregular,
but is nowhere broken through,
its highest point standing at only
1850 feet above sea level and its
lowest at 1876 feet.
Within the rim are two hot
pools, known respectively as the
yellow and the green lake, and a
little active cone above fifty feet
in height from which escape steam
and sulphurous gas in varying
quantities.
In the smaller lake every few
minutes the water in the center is
blown up above an immense
bubble, which ri Using above the
surface, finally bursts, revealing o
black orifce and causing the boil
ing and very turbulent water to
assume all imaginable colors. The
aqueous vapor escaping is sufficient
to form a broad, smokelike column
which is visible especially during
the night and in the cary morning.
At some distance and before
reaching the edge Of the crater,
where a view of the bottom can be
obtained the rubbing sound
produced by the escaping vapor,
under the influence Of the
mysterious subterranean forces,
'an be heard like that of an inn
mense boiling kettle
The greatest eruption Of Taal
took place in 1854. The eruption
began on May 13 and did not end
till Dec. /. During this drea full
time the intensity and aspect of
the eruption were con inually
changing. and the four principal
towns OF the laguna Of Bombon
disappeared viz, Sala, Lipa,
Tanauan and Taal, with the
villages around them
