TO PROMOTE BIBLE READING.
Rev. q. II. vanBreemen Establishes
Mission With This Purpose In View.

The Rev. B. II. Van Bremen, con-
nected with the Baptist denomina-
ton, has opened a mission In part OF
his dwelling at No. 40 Canfield-ave,
east He came here three months
ago from Au Sable, Mich, where he
had charge OF Baptist church for a
while.
Mr.. Van Bremen, who Is Hol-
lander, has been in the United States
a number of years, and has come to
the conclusion that Bible reading In
the homes of Americans is being sad
ly neglected. To bring about re-
form in this regard is the ambition
of Mr.. Van Bremen.
II find" said Mr.. Van Bremen,
that there Is not nearly as much
Bible reading in the homes as there
should be. In fact, there Is not even
a Bible In many houses, and In others
where 1t may be found 1t Is never
opened. Then, again, many who dc
read the Bible do not read IL to adj
vantage. II Is to overcome this con
diIion that our mission has been es-
tablished.
"In addition to teaching the idea
of Bible reading, we shall plan To
place Bibles in the homes now with
cut them. There is a large field for
the work of promoting the plan for
Bible reading in the homes, and |
have hopes that our undertaking will
meet with approval and success in
Detroit.

able appearance, meantime planning
to build up a strong case without her
testimony.
On the evidence of Edward Meal
lester, druggist, the state purposed to
trace the poison in the packers
drinking water.
McAllister said there was none in
Schenk's medicine when prepared at
his store and that Or. Hupp's pre-
scription called for none.
DR.. o. w. Burdatt, Wheeling den-
list, who treated John o. Schenk, the
packer, was on the stand at the open
ing of the fifth day OF Mrs. Schenk's
trial.
Schenk's dental work figures in
the case because the states star
medical expert, DR.. Frank LeMoyno
Hupp, under REORGANIZATION. ac-
knowledged the BLACK line" on
Schenk's gums presumably indicat-
ing the lead poisoning might have
been caused by gum disease.
Burdatt testified he noticed tho
peculiar condition of the packers
gums last October. Drops OF blood
were very dark. A heavy black blue
line was discernible.
Handlan tried TO show that Hupp
influenced Schenk to go to the den
fist, but the court would not admit
the evidence.
The witness said he was convinced
the blue line indicated some disar-
rangement of the system instead OF
gum disease. On the cross-examina-
ton, Attorney Boyce for the defense,
tried to get the dentist to say the
line might have resulted from stom-
ach trouble.
Not altogether" the witness re-
piled.
Prof. j. w. Mallett, head OF the
chemistry department of the Uni
versity OF Virginia, was put on the
stand TO tell OF the analysis of the

One Reason Why Charles II. Brehme,
Wants Divorce.

Alleging that his wife refused Ia
permit him TO smoke In the house

declared insane and confined In an
asylum, Charles ii. Brehmer, associ.
ated with his brother In a wholesale
business on High-st. east, began suit
for divorce In Judge Murphys court,
Friday afternoon.
Brehmer charges that he was de-
MED the pleasure OF home, being
compelled to smoke in the cellar or
on the street. He also claims that
his wife nagged and scolded him con.
tipuously.
Mrs. Brehmer. who is defending the
case, charges that her husband was
unclean personally. and about the
house. She also charges cruelty. This
is Mrs. Brehmer's second appearance
In divorce court, she having been d.
vorced before Brehmer married her.
The husband is represented by At
torney Thomas L. Dalton.

BATAVIA, N. Y, Jan. 13.-In a rear
end collision today. between two New
York Central west-bound passenger
trains at the state here, four Pull
man passengers we're killed, and a
score of passengers OF the Pullman
and other coaches were injured, some
of them fatally.
Wrecking crews from Buffalo and
Rochester worked for four hours on
the wreckage before affecting the re-
lease of all the injured.
Train No. 40, westbound, was stand
ing in front OF the station, when train
No. 20 crashed into 1t. The Pullman
coach In the rear was telescoped.
Train No. % was behind her schedule
and was attempting to make up time.
lie wrecked train Is known as the
Boston and Buffalo special and was
composed OF sleepers, ny coaches and
a dining car. The sleepers were from
Boston TO Buffalo and Niagara Falls.
Train No. 40 was due at Batavia at
5:13 o'clock, but reached there several
minutes earlier. Train No. % was due
at o'clock. In some unaccountabie
manner and without word or warn
ing train No. 23 crashed into the rear
end OF the other train as IL stood still
on the track. The engine of the rear
train ploughed into a Pullman car,
telescoped II and wrecked day coach
ahead
|. Four men occupying berths in the
Pullman were instantly killed. The
day coach was we'll filed with passen-
gers and eighteen OF them were caught
In the wreckage. The bodies OF the
men killed in the Pullman were bad
ly mangled and two OF them were
wedged so tightly under the engine
of train No. %, that 1t required some
time to extricate them.
Supt Everitt, of the western di-
vison of the Central, made the fol-
lowing statement:

ton as I have been able to make. j.

Edward Giles, a juror serving on the
circuit court panel, was excused from
further service, Friday morning.

p. W., and lives at No. 626 Monroe
ave-, was a juror at the time John r.

however. and he was permitted 10
serve out his term. When the judges

Buying and Selling Niggers."

Now comes the time of year, along
towards the Christmas holidays,
when the negro farm laborer and
wage-earner is chasing the white far
mer and landowner and signing up
for the coming year with the party
furnishing the most advance
money" Thus it has been pretty
nearly ever since the negro became a
free man" nearly so years ago.. The
ex-slave in order to get the cash for
a holiday frolic sells himself into
bondage, and in many instances skips
out, leaving the landowner in the
lurch: Bye and bye the runaway ne
gro is caught and brought back, put
on the chain gang or in Jail only to
be bought out by some one else, and
so the average negro man is to-day
pretty nearly as much a slave as he
was a half century ago. And both
the white man and the negro are re-
sponsible for this condition of things.
Until the white man ceases to ad-
vance the money asked for by the
negro laborer the latter can never be
free man, and so long as the evil
of advancing the cash continues the
average negro laborer will continue
to grow from bad to worse until with
in few short seasons hence the ne
gro as a farm laborer is bound to be-
come the sorriest type of the human
being. The thing grows worse year
after year, and the end is not yet in
sight. ht.-Clinton Gazette.
