Terrible Sea Disaster.

The entire world has been
shocked this week by the news
of the sinking of the gigantic
liner, Titanic, by coming in con-
tact with an iceberg in mid-ocean
while enroute from Liverpool to
New York on it's maiden trip.
The vessel struck the iceberg at
about 1925 o'clock Sunday night
and sunk shortly after 2 O'Clock
in the morning, carrying down
with it some 1900 persons. Ac-
cording to latest adyices about
1868 persons escaped from the
doomed vessel in boats and life
RATS and were later picked up
by the Carpathia, the first vessel
to reach the scene of the disaster.
Most of those saved were women
and children.
The Titanic was the largest
vessel afoat and cost $40, O00,O 900.
She had a capacity of As, 1923 tons,
was 1922 feet long and had a dis
placement of $4,000 tons. 1t is
presumed the vessel struck pant
of an iceberg that was under
water and stove in her bottom,
causing her to sink within a few
hours. The ocean is nearly two
miles deep where the vessel sunk
and few bodies will ever be re-
covered.
Many prominent people from
all parts of the country were
passengers on the i'll fated vessel
and until the survivors reach
land but little will be known of
their fate. Col. John Jacob
Aston is believed to be among
the drownded. His wife and
m aid ere saved. Isador
Strauss, the millionaire merch-
ant; Benz. Guggenheim, the cop
per magnate; Edgar ]. Meyer,
vice-president of the Braden cop
per company and Chas. M. Hays,
president of the Grand Trunk
Railway, are thought to be among
those lost. Many other notable
persons are included among the
missing. The disaster is one of
the greatest in history and has
caused all countries of the civil
lied world to mourn.

Thread Leads to Discovery of
Needle in Child'S Limb.

A piece of thread protruding
from the flesh of the little 1-year
old child of Mr.. and Mrs. A. v.
McSparren, living near Nora, led
to the discovery that a needle
was buried in the little boys
flesh just below the right knee.
The little fellow had been crawl
ing on the floor when he came in
contact with the needle which,
eye foremost, buried itself in the
flesh. The child commenced cry
ing Immediately, but it was not
until Mrs. McSparren had found
the thread extending from the
child's limb that the cause was
discovered. In her efforts to re-
move the needle from the flesh
by pulling on the thread, the
head of the needle snapped off.
DR.. Strain was then called and
he reports that it required a deep
incision to recover the balance of
the needle. 1t seems that when
the thread was drawn on the
point of the needle took an in
ward course and buried itself
deeper in the flesh. Troy News.

WHAT
Eaters and Not Corn Crack
ers Are the People of
This State.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 2s,-Accord-
ing to the crop reporter published By
the department of agriculture West
consume an average Of
81 bushels of wheat each in the
course of year. This is largely in
excess of the consumption Of wheat
in the South Atlantic division Of
states and also considerably in ex-
cess of the average for the United
States. In most of the far western
states more wheat is consumed in
proportion to the population than IN
West Virginia, but in few Of the
other states is this so. The average
for the United States is So bushels,
The greatest consumption of wheat is
in New Mexico where it averages ~
bushels to the person, while the
smallest consumption is four bushels
for Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi,
and Arkansas. From these figures It
will be seen that West virginians
are great wheat consumers and are
not to be classed among the corn
crackers of the far south.

Forage is the Cause Of a Dis
ease among Horses in
Two Counties.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The sec
rotary of agriculture has notified
Senator Watson that he has no We.
,r.nary surgeon available to make an
investigation of the disease which
has attacked SO many Of the horses
in Marshall and Wetzel counties. He
says, however, the disease has been
frequently noted in Maryland, yir-
ginia and other states recently and
that 1T is due to the moIdy condition
Of feed and forage, especially the
corn, whcih is being fed to the horses
in these states, He says the disease
is known as forage poisoning or GER
ebro spinal meningitis of the horse
and that it may be readily checked
by change of food, substituting the
sound, mature food for immature OF
nodded grain and forage. Senator
Watson has obtained quite number
Of farmers bulletins bearing upon
this particular disease and will send
them to the horse owners in the in,
fected district so long as they hold
out.

OF a Progressive Texan Ne.
gro That Arrests Much
Attention.

HOUSTON. Texas, Jan. 23.-Book-
er T. washington's idea OF what the
American negro Of the future should
De is exemplifed in n. E. Barnes, OF
Willis, Texas, negro who has in
vented two novelties designed to BEN
eft the travelling public. Both in
ventlons are indicators, one Installed
in train to mutely call the stations,
and the second bulletin board for
stations describing movements OF
trains. Both devices are declared
practical.
The station Indicator occupies the
same position in a passenger coach
as the register in street car. Im-
mediately upon leaving a station the
conductor punches button which au-
tomatically throws into position the
name of the next station, This the
inventor declares will do away with
the unlntelligible bawl of a train por-
ter calling the name OF a station
which is lost in the rear pf the train.
The second device is an automatic
bulletin board for trains, showing the
Scheduled time of arrival and II late
the minutes or hours behind time.
This continuance is designed to be
manipulated by the station agent or
operator from his desk by electricity.
Both inventions viii be given a trial
and an interu:5an road out of Hous-
ton may try the station signalling
on a few of Its cars.
