TRAIN WRECK is FATAL TO 81.
Most Appalling Accident In the His.
tory of South Africa Railways.

Grahamstown, Cape Colony, April
Thirty-two persons were killed in
the wreck of passenger train on the
Kowie railway when it plunged to de-
struction into gorge $50 feet deep
through the collapse Of the Blaakwa-
krantz bridge. In addition many were
Injured, some Of them probably fatal
ly. 1t was the most appalling wreck
in the history of South African rail-
ways.
The rescue work involved heart
rending experiences. A large mass of
wreckage lodged on a ledge 100 feet
down, and it was many hours before
all were removed from the difficult
crags and hoisted in sacking to the
lip of the gorge. One little girl had a
miraculous escape. She was caught
In fork of the bridge and held by
one foot over the ravine. The res
cuers had to scale Orders to the
height of 200 feet to bring her down.

RAILWAYS MUST
FORFEIT LANDS
100000 ACRES HELD BY S. p. AND
O. & C. LINES REVERT TO
GOVERNMENT.
BY DECISION OF FEDERAL COURT
Roads Lose Property Worth Millions
Supposed Rights Of 5000
Interveners Brushed
Aside.

Portland, April 25.-Federal Judge
Charles e. Wolverton decided that the
Southern Pacific and the Oregon and
California railway companies must for
felt to the United States government
about 100000 acres OF, land which is
valued at $40,o00,0o0 to SIS. 100000.
Interpreting the act Of congress
granting the land as an aid 10 railway
construction, the court held that con-
gress intended that this land should
be sold to bona fde settlers in tracts
not greater than 160 acres to one in
dividual, and at price not exceeding
$3.50 per acre.
While deciding in favor of the fed.
eral government, Judge Wolverton de-
cided against the several thousand in
terveners in the case. He held that
they had acquired no right whatever
either by settling on the land or by
rendering the maximum sum per claim
specified by the law.
The effect of this portion of the de.
cision is that the lands cannot be pro-
cured by any individual until the presi-
dent or congress again opens them to
entry or file. The 81 entrymen who
had gone upon the land as settlers
before the suits of the government be-
gan also lose their claims and are held
to have gained no advantage whatever
by their period of settlement.
More than 5000 interveners have
filed applications to get a portion of
the land, but their supposed rights are
brushed aside, leaving the entire tract
open to disposition by congress. In
brief, the question raised by the South.
ern Pacific was whether congress had
the power to make subsequent act
precedent to the rights conferred in
an original grant.
The suit was instituted in 1908 by
Attorney General Bonaparte, follow.
ing a memorial from the Oregon legis
lature to congress that the Southern
Pacific company, successor to the Ore
gon and California railway company
had forfeited it's rights to a grant OF
land in Oregon and Washington. The
company was said to have refused tc
sell the land as provided in the grant

CONTROVERSY up OVER GIFT
MINISTERS AND b. A. r. REPRE-.
sENTATIvEs PROTEST.
6moot Says Inclusion Of Likeness Of
Brigham Young Was Only
Incidental.

Washington, April 25. - Senator
6moot, of Utah, had conference with
Secretary Meyer, of the navy depart
ment, regarding the design of the sill
yer service to be presented to the bat
tleship Utah by the people of the state
Of Utah. His call was the result of the
criticisms made in the meetings of the
Daughters of the American Revolution
that the silver plate was to carry a
likeness of Brigham Young.
The senator told Mr.. Meyer that the
only representation of Mr.. Young con-
tanned in the design was that of his fig
ure as it appeared on the pioneer mon
ument in Salt Lake City. He said that
this monument had been chosen by
committee composed of three Nor
mons and three non-Mormons, the
chairman being Col. D. G. Jackling, who
Is now affiliated with the Mormon
church. He said that Col. Jackling had
been largely instrumental in selecting
the design and that the inclusion Of
the statute of Brigham Young was only
incidental and due entirely to the fact
that it was part of the monument.
A committee representing the
Daughters of the American Revolution
accompanied by a delegation of Wash
ington ministers and by Mrs H. S.
Owen, of Salt Lake City, made verbal
protests to Secretary Meyer against
the choice of the Utah service bearing
Young's likeness.
Mr. Movor caid tho off woc MT vo+
within his jurisdiction, but that when
it had been received he would decide
the matter.
Secretary Meyer had before him dur.
ing the hearing letter written by Car.
dinal Gibbons asking that several
women who had called on him in the
matter be given a hearing. The let
ter did not take up the question at is

THE SMALL FARM Is
BECOMING POPULAR.
Texas Farmers Are Realizing Good
Profits on Ten Acre Tracts.

San Antonio, Texas, June b.
More and more each year farmers
are realizing that a small acreage
carefully cultivated is more profit
able than a large farm of uncer
tain cultivation efforts. 1t can be
said~truthfully that Texas is a state
where the ten acre tract has shown
wonderful results. While it is true
that the ten acre tract received its
first careful attention in the fruit
and vegetable belt of California,
Texas has shown the greatest results
both in number and earning. OF
! course, all men who undertake farm
1 ing on a ten acre tract do not sue
/ coed, Just as a certain per cent OF
men fail in all kinds of business.
Some, too, who have been farmers
/ all their lives, find themselves at a
| disadvantage when they attempt to
devote their energies to ten acres.
| But the fact remains that ten acres
| given as rational attention as such
an amount of land merits and a ro-
tation of crops that is possible in a
climate like that of Southwest Tex
as mean success to a large per cen
of those who engage in the business.
The Gulf coast, the Lower Rio
Grande valley, the Nueces valley
and the cultivated tracts near this
city emphasize this fact. To say that
every man has made a success of the
business would not be in line with
the fact; but to say that ninety per
cent have made a success will be
stating a fact and proves the utility
of the plan beyond question. The ten
acre farm gives every man who de-
sires it the opportunity to become a
land owner and more than an aver
age chance to become independent
by his own efforts Hundreds Of in
stances Of the ten acre farm success
could be cited in both Texas and cal
/ ifornia. But one instance representa-
tive OF many will suffice Near this
! city one man who owns ten acre

MACkAY'S STATEMENT
Says Postal Will Not lnaugurate De-
 ferred Day Service

New York. February 25.-(Special)- Clarence H. Mackay president of the Postal graph-Cable company, has the following to say in regard to day lettergram service: We give such a fast day service that there is no oc- casion for any deferred service, be . sides which we are not deferred com pany. We push our traffic through to destination within few minutes from the time it Is handed to US. We do not believe the public has any use for a deferred day service. because the present day service and night letter. gram service seems to be amply suf- fcient and we do not th'nk there is any demand for an intermediate ser vice. which would be no different from the night lettergram services in It's practical workings. A deferred day ser vice would get mixed with our regu- lar day service and would hamper and delay it. Fast service is what the pub lie wants, not deferred or slow ser vice."
