 Roadmaster Lambs testimony was reviewed by Mir. Goodwin. who scored the witness as being very open and frank in giving information that la vored the prosecution, but very reti- cent and evasiye when the defense asked questions.
 Always Someone Else

Ev- cry time someone else was to blame and 1t was the custom for the rail, roads to fix the blame for wreck on someone besides themselves.
 When MT. Goodwin had finished re- cess was taken for dinner. Upon the reconvening of court after the noon recess MT Morro wbegan his speech for the state.

 The theory of Mir King that negro threw the switch was criticized be- cause. said Mr. Morrow, Mir. King over- looked the fact that ne could not get his key out without locking the lock and because the lamp was out.
 Part of MT. Lambs testimony was commented on in which he said a cooked" switch would have wrecked the engine right at the switch. MT. Ross called on MT. Morrow tot read all of Lambs testimony.
 T am willing to read it an,' said MT. Morrow They have read only parts of 1t to you. You can prove any thing by reading part of the testi- nony."
 The argument that the railroad was 1 trying to escape liability, Mir Morrow denounced as fallacious. They would have selected somebody else besides q fireman for eight years in their em- ploy if that had been their object somebody not an agent Of the road. You will have 10 get up something else. | sMr. Morrow admitted that he was | the attorney for the railroad, but saic MT Beddow had been treated unfairly when the defense said he was em- ployed by the railroad. He denied that Bowman, Harsh lS Beddow had been employed by the Louisville and Nash ville suggesting that the relatives of the dead men had a right to employ attorneys in the case.

SLEEP TWICE AROUND CLOCK
English Physician says That ls Worth Weeks Holiday for Worn
 Out People.

If you are just about the end of your tether, if your nerves jangse so that even your best friends can hear them, and if each day feels like a fiery torture almost not to be borne it is q sign that you are worn out and in need of rest and reetpera- tion. If your vacation is already past or still in the distant future try taking a vacation in minimum, that is sleep the clock around twice, choosing Sunday if you can spare no other day, and see how fit you will feel afterward. This is the ad- vice of well-known English physi- clan and it is well worth taking.

The night before going to a theater, to take the mind off worries, and having suppcd wisc- ly and well, instructions should be given that the morning calling shall he omitted.

FISH WITH VEGETABLE MILK
Indians of Bolivia Find It Easy to Par alyzs and Capture the Finny
 Tribe.

Indians Of Bolivia have a peculiar method of going fishing. A writer in the Geographical Journal says; "They use the milk of the mammal or 'soliman' tree, the scientific name of which is, l think, hura crepitans, of the Euphorbia genus, for catch- ing fish. went with some of the Indians to a lagoon in the forest. Here, floating on the surface of the water, perfectly alive and yet abso- lutely unable to get away, were fish of all kinds, big and small, from which thef selected the most pala- table for food. The milk is merely poured into the water, and as it spreads every fish which comes in contact with it becomes paralyzed and yet is not affected as food. More over, the effect appears to last for several days without killing the fish. The milk is also used as a cure for toothache, as caustic and for the purpose of suicide, for which a tea spoonful is employed. As a poison they say the results are painful"

CLEAR STREETS OF CATS.

Eight hundred and siYty-six cats captured in one night recently at New York, is the record of the So- ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, which is now sending out its wagons after dark to pick up these homeless animals. Practically all the animals gathered in are found to be suffering from mange or other parasitical diseases, and many of them are maimed and rc- duced to . skeleton by starvation, Their merciful destruction is n- garded by the society as being in the interest of the public as well as of the animals themselves.

HEADING HABIT DYING OUT
Tendency of the Times in England 10 DepIored by Cambridge
 Professor.

The question whether serious read- ing is dying out in England is ac- lively discussed in bookselling and literary circles, owing to some strik- ing remarks by Prof. Sir Joseph Thomson. Speaking at a dinner of the Associated Booksellers of Great Britain, the professor of experimen- tai physics said:
 ''ln the University of Cambridge, l am afraid that the habit of read ing IS almost extinct, and that it has been replaced by lectures. The ,,n- dergraduates expect to have the thing digested for them, and many of them read very little. That is q very serious evil, and it would be better for the coming race to en- courage reading"
 From what can be learned both from libraries and booksellers, it would seem that, in the wide world outside Oxford and Cambridge, the tendency for the book borrower is to indulge in fiction and light litera- ture and for the book buyer to choose more solid fare.
 People certainly seem to read more for entertainment than for in-

PUBLIC MONEY
MUST BUILD
THE HOSPITALS

In spite OF the fact that state san
atoria and hospitals for tuberculosis
have been established in 81 states
and ia municipal or county hospi-
tails in 26 states, vastly more public
provision Is needed to stamp out con-
sumption, says the National Assocla-
tion for the study and prevention Of
tuberculosis in a bulletin issued to-
day.
Every state east of the Mississippi
river except Vermont, South caro-
lima, Kentucky, Tennessee, Florida,
Mississippi aud Illinois have provided
state sanatoria. In Vermont, a pri-
Vate sanatorium Is partially used as
a state institution, and In Florida,
an Indefinite provision for such a
hospital has been made. The states
west OF the Mississippi river which
have established state sanatorla are,
Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkan-
sas. Tevas, Kansas, Nebraska, North
Dakota. South Dakota, Montana, and
Oregon. There are 80 sanatOria pro-
vided by these states, Connecticut
having three, Massachusetts four,
Pennsylvania three, and Texas two.
New York state leads in municipal
and county hospitals for tuberculo-
sis, having "a, while Ohio, the Sec
Ond on the list has H., and Massa-
chusetts. the third, has nine. In these
26 states, which are the only ones
having any municipal or county care
for tuberculosis, there are ia hos
pitals, including special payilions
and almshouses. Hardly more than
one-tenth Of the cities having 10000
population and over, make any local
provisions for tuberculosis cases, and
not one-twentieth of the less popu-
lous districts make such provisions.
In addition to the state, municipal
and county hospitals, the federal
government provides for certain Sc
leeted classes in the United States
army hospital at Fort Bayard, New
Mexico, the United States Health and
Marine Hospital Service Sanatorium
at Fort Stanton, N. NJ, the United
States Naval Hospital at Las Animas.

tai Of 200, the institutional care of

in private institutions, the National
Association says that unless the cities

accommodations for these consump-
tives, the disease can never be
