81 DIE; so HURT IN WRECK
Lehigh Valley Passenger Runs Into
Trestle Near Manchester.

Manchester, N. Y, Aug. &c
Speeding eastward behind time, the
Lehigh Valley passenger train No. 4.
ran into a spread rail on a trestle
near here yesterday, and two day
coaches from the mid-section of the
train plunged downward forty feet,
striking the east embankment like a
pair of projectiles. In the awful
plunge and crash at least 81 persons
were killed and more than SO in
jured. The injuries of several are so
serious that it is feared they will
die.
The wreck was the worst in the
history of the Lehigh Valley line in
this state and one of the most disas-
trous ever recorded on the system.
Crowded with passengers, many of
whom were war veterans and excur-
sionists from the G. "A. R. encamp-
ment at Rochester, the train made up
of fourteen cars and drawn by two
big mogul locomotives, was forty
minutes late when it reached Roch-
ester Junction, and from there sped
eastward to make up the time before
reaching Geneva.
1t will probably be days before the
full list of dead is made up. The
features of some are SO badly disfg-
ured that Identification in any case
will be difficult.

CATCH 50 POUNDS IN HOUR.
Pendergast Leads Party at Planta-
ganet That Pulls in Bass, Pike,
Pickerel, Perch.
LANDED NEAR BALsAM BEACH

Judge L. C. Pendergast and daugh-
tiers, Alice and Tinnie, together with
R. Middleton and wife, all of Balsam
| Beach, Lake Plantaganet, have set
the record for fish catches in this vi
cinity.
This party in one hours time yes
terday afternoon landed 80 pounds of
fish from the waters of Plantaganet.
Included in the catch were two
pike, 5 pickerel, two Oswego bass and
13 perch.
So far as known this is the record
catch for an hours fishing in any
Of the lakes near here this year.
Many fish daily are being caught
in Plantaganet.
Judge Pendergast has spread the
glad tidings of the attractiveness of
that lake and has recently made
several improvements on his proper
ty at Balsam beach and has extended
an invitation to several of his asso-
ciates in the old capitol in st. Paul,
of which building he formerly was
custodian.
It is also expected that several
state officials from the new capitol
viii! visit Balsam Beach, and some of
them have invested in property at
that point.

COFFEE TO RELIEVE FATIGUE
British Army Has Threshed Question
Out; Award Palm to Java.

The question is sometimes asked:
What will relieve fatigue more quick
~ than anything else? Clerks in
stores and men generally as we'll as
women shoppers become at times
very tired. Fortunately the British
army has threshed the question out
and tried every kind of decoction
that could be thought of, and we may
profit by their experience. They
awarded the palm to coffee, and de-
clare it has neither superior nor
equal for this purpose.

DREAM LOCATES DROWNED LAD
Singular Coincidence of Vision By
Man in His Sleep.

It was noted recently the drowning
of boy named johnny Ward in Mill
river, and was at the time said that
his body had not been found. That
night man who is familiar with the
circumstances of the case had a
dream in which he saw the boy, SC
he states, clinging to a post under a
building. Yesterday careful search
for the body was made, and it was
found under Daniels mill, on Mill
street, the arms of the lad firmly
clasped about a piece of timber used
for support to the building. The
finding of the body in the position
as seen in the dream is singular

AN ANCIENT NEEDLE FACTORY
Discovered Near Glastonbury, Eng
land, of Great Interest.

The discovery of a. prehistoric
needle factory at a prehistoric lake
village near Glastonbury, England,
reused much interest recently. The
dwellings were placed on mounds of
clay raised above the level of the
water. The framework of a print
tive loom was found under one
mound, and the number of broken
bone needles and bone splinters dis
covered in another mound led the ex-
plorers to think that it may have
been the sight of an ancient needle
factory.

DUMAS CASE MAY SHIFT
Brainerd Paper Says Trial May Be
Taken From Bemidji to That
City:
JAMES, STILL HERE, IS SATISFIED

And now Brainerd has bunch
that the Dumas case is to be taken
to Brainerd on change of venue to
be tried before Judge w. S. McClene-
han. The Daily Dispatch of that
city, which Is Judge McClenehan's
home town, runs the following:
Not only baseball and iron drill
ling in this city will contribute to
keep Brainerd in the lime light, but
there is also a possibility now of the
Dumas case being shifted on change
of venue to Brainerd and if this is
done, Judge w. S. McClenehan will
try the case.''
So far as is known here neither
side will ask for change of venue.
Assistant Attorney General James,
who will remain in Bemidji until
Monday night, has repeatedly said
that he believes that fair trial can
be held here and that this appears

On the other hand, Judge Marshall

do so. He has made no definite as

craft, it's ferryboats and ocean liners,
Harry N. Atwood, the Boston aviator,
arrived in New York in his aeroplane
yesterday, the first man in history
to travel as far as from st. Louis to
New York by way of Chicago in a
heavier than air machine.
Atwood's safe landing on Cover
nor's Island, after flying from Nyack,
N. Y, above the Hudson river
through the fog, which made him on
ly dimly visible to the millions OF
eyes that watched him, was notable
incident in the annals of aeronautics.
Flies 1885 Miles in Same Machine.
He not only broke the worlds rec
ord, covering 1885 miles in an air
line, or perhaps 100 more miles with
his detours, but he flew all the way
in the same biplane and with no i'm
portant mishaps
Atwood's fight is comparable only
to that made by the fast trains, for
he covered the distance in the actual
time of % hours and 81 minutes.
. Atwood's final lap In his long jour
ney was a glide Of s miles from Ny
ack, N. Y, where he had stopped
over night. He landed dapper and
smiling and hatless and hungry in
the arms of a handful of United
States army officers and men, who
hailed him as Americas greatest
aviator. ..o s
May Now Quit Game.
Atwood said that he may retire
permanently from aviation and his
projected coast to coast trip may new
er be made.
ut is too risky said the aviator.
"Man after many flights has made
new records in aviation of late only
to drop suddenly to death. I have
been much more careful than many
bird-men, but feel that if stay in
the clouds too long l will meet my
fate in time.'
Atwood's coming was unexpected
on Governors Island, as it had been
heralded that he would land at the
Sheepshead Bay race track, where
thousands lined the vantage points
looking skyward Atwood expressed
regret at their disappointment. s
Flies Low Over River.
He followed the Hudson at low
altitude the entire distance. At Yon.
kers as he leaned forward to- wave
a silent reply to. the cheers, the wind
clipped his cap from his head and
waited it down to the waters. Thou.

approached Recreation pier at Fiji:

clustered, he turned his machine *
that it swept in a complete circle
from one side of the river to tht
other and then started down stream
once more. An hour after he landed
Atwood was on his way up town.

DR.. ANDERSON
IS DlSM ISSED

DR.. Katherine Anderson, the
efficient young lady who has
been serving as city chemist and
bacteriologist has been deposed.
Mayor Seymour announced this
morning that he had appointed
DR.. G. s. Wilson.
Dr.. Anderson was still work
ing at noon and had not been
notified of her dismissal but she
will probably get notice some
time during the day.
: DR.. Wilson was bacteriologist
under the administration of Geo.
Wright, part of the time. When
Mayor Linck came in he tried to
sidetrack the gravity water pro-
position and boom the wells. Will
son was making tests of the
South Tacoma we'll water and he
found it impure and so reported.
This did not suit Mayor Linck
and Wilson was fired.
Mayor Seymour says he called
up 22 prominent physicians and
took vote of them assisted by
Louis Foss, president of the civil
service board, and that a majority
expressed preference for DR..
Wilson for the place.
