these men apparently forgot all about

a double track from Omaha to Gill

train crew had had to do was to
wait at the Junction until after the
passenger train passed. Only a
single track is maintained where the

CHURCH TO RUN PICTURES
Plan by Which Colorado Conerega-
ton Hopes 10 Compete With the
Nickelodeon.

Grand Junction, Colo.--The Presby-
terrain church here has evolved plan
to put the Sunday moving picture
shows out Of bushes AT a meeting
Of the church trustees, the Rev. DR..
Luther Edwards, the pastor, was au-
thorized to buy a machine with the
necessary films. Shows will be held
on Sunday all day except during serv-
ices and until TO-; 80 o'clock at night.
The public will be admitted fire.
Instead of films showing train rob-
berries, suggestive love scenes, or sup
posedIy humorous events, the church
machine will be utilized entirely for
education and religious purposes. All
leading historical episodes will be H.
Illustrated. Moving pictures will be
used to illustrate sermons and lee
lures and all will have an educational
value.
BY this means 1t is hoped that the
picture show theaters will be forced
to close on Sunday or else meet the
competition offered by the church
free.

HAY GROWN FOR THE MARKET
There Is Always Demand for Clean
Timothy and It viii Bring Price
Beyond Feeding Value.
CBy w. NJ. KELLEY

Timothy hay should be grown for
market every time. The market wants
clean timothy and will pay price
far beyond Its feeding value; for that
reason 1t pays to grow what the mar
ket calls for.
If we grow the best timothy we
must plow our ground early and give
It thorough tillage for number OF
weeks before the field il needed. The
mineral fertilizers should be thor
oughly mixed with the soil and put
down where they will be within reach

President Bush's EXPLANATION.

st. Louis, Mo, Oct 1.-THE
accident can only be attributs d to
the fallibility of man as the fret n;
train crew seems TO have had one of
those mental lapses that sometimes
occur. causing them TO forget all
about the passenger train, notwith-
standing special notification was
given that it was due is the ex-
PLANTATION in brief of the probable
cause OF the accident advanced by
President b. F. Bush of the Missouri
Pacific.
The freight train was made up
of nineteen loaded and tire empty
cars and was in charge of Condue-
tor Gross and Engineer Crawford. Ii
was an extra without right Of way
against the passenger train. Ac-
coTding to information received by
President Bush these two men, both
OF whom have been in the service OF
the Missouri Pacific for number OF
years. seem to share the responsible
lily for the accident.
There is train register main
tanned at South Omaha" said PFesi-
dent Bush and it is the rule of every
railroad that train crews must check
the REGISTERS wherever they are
maintained Not only did this crew
have access to this register, but Train
Dispatcher Lane at South Omaha
handed the conductor, as an extra
precaution, a message reading; no.
