Made Mockery Of Marriage.

A question as to the validity of
marriage which took place recently in
Colombo, Ceylon, has arisen. The
bride and bridegroom played rather
unusual practical joke at the cere-
mony, for the former dressed up as
the bridegroom and the latter mas
querated in the woman's clothes, and
hesceremony was quite through be-
fore the two people concerned were
identified.

RAILROADS
SCORED BY
COMMISSION
SUITABLE PROTECTION NOT
PROVIDED THE PASSENGERS
ANNUAL REPORT OF THE INTER
STATE COMMERCE COMMISSION
ASKS THAT DRASTIC LAWS BE
ENACTED.

ENAC1 TED.
Washington, Dec IS - A caustic
arrangement of the lax methods prev
alent among the railroad companies
of the United States with reference
to providing suitable protection for
their passengers and employees was
the keynote of the annual report Of
the Interstate Commerce Commission
made public here today.
The report stated that the total
number of casualties for the year
on steam roads was 1SO,123 of which
1885 presons were killed and 1G9-
538 were injured. These figurse rep
resented an increase of 189 in fatal
tiles and 1879 in minor accidents
over the proceeding year. Continuing
the report says: =
knowledge gained from investi-
cation of these accidents indicate bel
yond doubt that with the track and
roadway conditions existing upon any
railroads in this country the dam
ger of derailment is ever present"
The commission stated that of the
81 derailments Investigated by the
| commissions agents, IA were either
indirectly or directly caused by bad
track and that in three cases the
roadbed VS. in such bad condition thu;
accidents were liable to occur even
when trains were progressing at low
speed.
Particular attention to the remark
able frequency of wrecks on the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
railroad, through a yelled reference
to a wreck on that system. the re
port stating that in many Instances
J the interstate commerce invesuzar-
+ ors found spikes SO loose that thy
/ could be removed fr9r. The wood by
hard.
The commission reported that THE
most t!sqrletng and perpIeXng fen
/ tTe of the problem Of accident pre-
I venuors is the large proportions of
train accidents caused by the dare
+ =, ion Of duty by the employees iu-
vowed"
A factor in bringing about the in
. crease III casualties in American rail
roads, says the report, has been the
/. remarkable increase in the speed
!. and weight of trains, the crowding OF
tracks aud terminals, and ancient
rules and regulations in effect.
The annual report OF the commits
sicn Tor the most part embodies a
IoLg and detailed account of its ac
tivitics 0Ljing the past year. In the
c. urse Of their report the commits
sioners recommend the following leg
isiatitn: A physical valuation OF
railroads, uniform classification, q

thority Of the commission over tele

WASHINGTON, Dec. ia severe
jolt to temperance is administered in
the annual report of Commissioner

The report disclosed the fact that
the country, if judged by that
standard of morality set up by tenn

every man, woman and child appar-
emily in a fair way to fall heir to
an annual apportionment of a barrel
of beer, several gallons of spirits

GOT RICH IN
THREE YEARS
EXPERIENCES OF A BRITISH I'M
MIGRANT IN CANA3A-WEST

The following Straightforward state
ment needs no comment TO add to
its force and effect. 1t appears in a
recent issue of the Liverpool Mer-
curry.
H. Patterson, of Nutana, Saskatche-
wan, Canada, when he arrived from
Liverpool, had six of Us to support"
to use his own phraseology, and his
funds were getting low. He secured
homestead 80 miles out from Sun
durn, and started living on it April
Is, 1907. The previous fall he put all
his money, $1S7. into a shack and lot,
making sure of home. AS cook and
caterer in a local hotel he made SIS
month, and out of this had some
savings out of which he paid his
breaking and improvements on the
homestead. The shack was sold to
good advantage. Then Mr.. Patterson
tells the story after he had removed
his family to the homestead:
For the first month life was so
strange and new that ! hadn't time to
think of anything, only fixing up our
new home. / was so green to farm
life that l didn't know the difference
between wheat and oats q do now!
Between working out, cropping my
place, and with my gun, we managed
to live comfortably for the three
years, which time was required to put
in my duties. I had accumulated
quite a stock of horses, cows, pigs,
enrxyIc and ,-,ooTfno,xy +b0 &brnn
years.
In October, 1909, secured my pat
emit to my land, SO took a few days
holidays to Saskatoon to locate a
purchased homestead wiz, Us. per
acre) from the Government. Instead
of getting the purchased homestead,
I secured a half section 1920 acres)
on the Saskatchewan River for $25.
per acre on easy terms, nine years
payments with a cash payment of
$1,000. / mortgaged my first home
stead, obtained chattel mortgages on
my stock, and on December oath,
1909, took possession on June 10,
1910, / sold out again for $40 per acre,
clearing, besides my crop GAO acres) ;,
$4,000. / also sold my first home
stead, clearing $1,800 and two Saska-
toon town lots, which we value at
$1,000 each today. We placed all our
capital in another farm (river front
age) and some trackage lots 600, also
a purchased homestead (river 'front.'
