 The left side of the engine was not wrecked the wheels and brake shoes were not damaged, and the brake beam extending across from left to right brake shoes was not marked or bent, although it was within only few inches of the rails.
 The first Pullman teleScoped the coach so that almost the entire Pull man car was enclosed in the roof and side of the remains of the coach. To telescope cars requires pressure from behind and resistance in front.
 If the rear part of the train jumped the rails first and jerked the fore part of the train from the rails, (as the snap of a whip how would the necessary pressure from behind and resistance in front be possible?
 The train was about 715 feet long, being composed of nine cars about 75 feet long.
 If the engine had jumped the track mans being the heavier, would have crushed the other cars, before the train had gone 100 feet over the ties, and the wreckage would have been scattered along the track, back of or over the cross-over.
 The engineers body was found un- der the engine. This would indicate that the engine was thrown over upon it's side suddenly, for if he had had any warning, he would have jumped But he could have had no warning be- cause there is no evidence that the engine left the track until it shot off to the side ct the frog of the siding switch.

The next step was to eliminate that sec ond frightful bugbear of housekeep- ing-washing the pots and pans. No dish or kettle used in cooking was al- lowed to become cold before being washed with combination wire and brfstle brush. The hand thus came Tn contact only with the handle of the vessel, doing away with the most unpleasant part of dishwashing, while the immediate cleansing minimized labor by preventing particles of food from drying and. sticking to the sides of the utensil.
 Table tops of glass and marble also helped to reduce labor in the kitchen. These were constantly kept spotless by the free use of paper napkins as "wipe-up rags" The employment of paper is one of the most valuable means of saving work. Paper nap- kins when bought in quantities are very cheap,they are absorbent, easily handled and may be quickly disposed of.
 Another of our schemes was to have all garbage instantly dropped down tube from the sink to an incineratOr in the cellar, doing away with that most unpleasant to the senses of sight smell and touch. We have not as yet reached MT. Rorer's ideal of minimum waste, but we are striving to approach 1t, for therein lies another real source of economy.
 A great deal of dirt, and the labor of removing it, was prevented by hav- ing all vegetables washed before they were brought into the house. To this end I devised little, drop table near the pump on the back porch, but step from the garden. We live in the country and grow some of our own vegetables, but the principle of leav- ing all possible dirt outside is one that could be applied almost everywhere.

DR.. Clarence X. Vliet. who has been
making a study of the neurotic condi-

that in ten years the number of wom-
en- suffering from nervous troubles,
caused by artificial stimulation. has
increased Is per cent.
Women" said DR.. Vliet, "have al
ways been fascinated by the freedom
men have enjoyed, and to certain ex-
tent have copied their pleasures and
pastimes, but never have they par

are doing today.

The home woman influences certain

These women are of Independent

This means that the women who
do this also drink with their dinners,
and it is not an infrequent thing for
women to resort to the morning

Smoking is another habit that

A LIVELY FIGHT ON
For Preble County Constitu.
tional Delegate.
palladium Specially

EATON, O., Nov. 1.-Henry E. Ely.
progressive Democrat, one of the five
aspirants in the race to represent
Preble county in the coming constitu-
tional convention, has been unani-
mously endorsed by the Wayne Farm
ers' club, composed of about one dozen
of the county's most progressive agri-
culturalists. Ex-County Representa-
tive William X. Swan, defeated a year
ago by Hon. Earl H. Irwin, is a promi-
nent member of the club.
Attorney Roscoe Griffis, Hon. Frank
Blackford, Professor w. w. Aker and
Professor Herman H. Beneke, other
candidates for the delegateship, are
scrapping lively for preference with
the voters, and the selection of the
successful one in the list is will con-
lecture. Current gossip relative to
the matter. however, narrows the race
down to three, it being claimed that
it lies between Griffis, Beneke and
Eby. Others, figuring that the dry
vote will be given Blackboard, say he
will slip in ahead of Eby. Blackford,
a prominent farmer and mamber of
the County Tobacco Growers Union,
is making strong fight for the vote.
He is strong in his denunciation Of
John w. HORNE, member of a CON-
mittee who, he asserts, was unauthor-
lied in it's endeavor to centralize the
dry votes on Eby. Blackford says he
was the first dry man in the race, and
the vote of the Anti-Saloon League is
due him. Griffis is hopeful that the
league vote will be divided between
Eby and Blackboard In this event the
wet vote given him will be large
to land for him the position. Beneke
is making hot campaign and is de-
liyering speeches, showing his posi-
ton, in various parts of the county.

DEVELOP POWER BY.
TASMANIA FALLS
Greatest Power Site In the
World to be Tapped by
Investment Company.

= LONDON. Nov. IA great engi-
neering feat is about to be begun In
Tasmania, a. a result of which the
colony will possess the largest water
fall In the world. The waters OF the
Great lake, which Is situated three
thousand feet above the sea level, are
to be tapped In such a way as to pro-
duce a fall of 1850 feet as compared
with the fall Of 100 feet at Niagara.
This great waterfall will be harness
ed SO as to operate huge turbines, the
capacity Of which for producing elec-
trical energy will be limited only by
the amount of water released from the
lake.
The cheap poyer thus provided will
be used on a large scale to operate the
iron mines in northern Tasmania, and
the lead, copper, tin and silver depOs-
its of the west. with the result that
the colony will soon become one Of
the leading manufacturing centers in
the commonwealth.
The new scheme was explained by
Sir John Mccall, theagent general for
Tasmania. I'VE have a large number
Of lakes situated on high elevation"
he said, land the largest, called the
Great lake. is about ninety miles in
circumference. 1t is proposed to put
a wall across the outlet and to raise
by several feet the surface of the lake.
1.-THE water will then run down the
Shannon river, which has its rise in
the Great lake, and from the Shannon
river a channel will be cut to the
Ouse river The water will drop into
the Ouse, a distance of $50 feet This
will be an enormous fall. the largest
in the world. A lagoon will also be con-
structed for regulating the supply of
water.
The first proposal is to put down
an installation OF turbines which will
give 2O,OO0-horse power at that point.
Nearly half this power will be utiliz-
ed at Northwest bay, near Hobart.
where 1t is proposed to erect metal
lurgical works on site Of two thous-
and acres. These works, by a special
process, will deal with the refractory
ores from the north coast Of Tasmania
and 1t is also expected to treat the
same class of ore from Broken hill,
IN new SOuln wales, WHICH nave now
to be sent to Germany.
This idea of Harvesting the water
power OF Tasmania should make the
state the manufacturing center of the
commonwealth, as the power will be
SO much cheaper than coal power, and
will not be dependent upon labor. It is
proposed also to erect electrical fur
naces for the treatment of iron ores
in the same way as in Norway and
Sweden.
"Everything, of course, points to an
increased demand for 1ron-the active
railway policies Of the different states
in Australia, together with the fact
that the commonwealth has undertak-
en- to construct certainly one trans
continental line, and has also realiz-
ed the necessity of a second one to
serve the northern territory, which
has just been taken over.
I'm addition" added Sir John, There
is a keen desire on the part of the Aus
tralian people to construct their own
men-of-war, and therefore it becomes
a necessity for country that wants to
be secure in it's own defense that it
should be able to produce iron within
ita own boundaries"
