Kept From Invalid Woman.

The life of Philadelphia woman
hangs in the balance today as the re-
suit OF the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road wreck Saturday night east of
Woodlyn, Pa, where a southbound ex-
press train was derailed and three
sleeping cars were rolled down an en-
bankment. She is the wife of r. A.
Humrichouse, OF 1909 North 2Gth street,
the Pullman conductor who was hurt in
the accident.
Humrichouse is badly injured and
may be crippled for life. The wreck
Saturday night was the third he has
been in since he went to work for the
Baltimore and Ohio two years ago.
About year ago his spine was injured
In wreck in Illinois and he was laid
UP six weeks. The old injury has now
returned and today he is in bed at his
home wondering f he will ever regain
the Use of his limbs.
Mrs. Humrchouse has been under
treatment for nervous prostraLion for
seven weeks. She does not know that
her husband has been injured and her
physician has given strict orders that
the news be kept from her. Any shock
at this time, he says. might prove

that her husband is lying on the verge
of paralysis in an adjoining room OF
their home.
liumrichousc was brought home yes
terday morning by DR.. f. 7. Morris. of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad The
physician found him lying unconscious
alongside one of the overturned coaches
after all the injured had been taken out
and cared for. When the crash came,
according to the story the conductor told
Mrs A. Mundy, his mother-in-law, who
is attending him and his wife, he had
Just left the sleeping car and was in the
parlor car.
The shock hurled Humrihouse the fun
length Of the car and against door. In
spite of injuries to his side and arm and
the duh pain in his spine from the old
hurt, he "rawled through the window
and went to work helping the injured
out Of the overturned coaches. Pres
emily a train arrived to take away the
EIumrichouse calmly made

The appropriations which are given in
detail above were made by party in full
control Of the legislative and executive
departments, which won power on a plat
form denouncing Republican extrava-
aance and pledging its candidates to
frugal administration The laws carrying
them were passed by a majority which
in the House today is framing an emer-
gency tax measure TO maintain the revc-
nues of the Government, while in the
Senate it struggles to enact a river and
harbor bill bloated with useless and in
defensible projects which would appro-
pirate at once s5S, 900 600, or ST., 2,COO,COO more
than was carried by the same measure

ing his discussion on this subject. He
particularly urged the Importance OF the
study of the history of Christ and Ills
work as important to the success C the
churches of today. If the slum work of

ANTI-LIQUOR VOTE
MENACE TO PENR0SE
IN CHESTER COUNTY
Growing in Strength and Op-
ponents of the Senator
Equally Jealous in Sup
port of DR.. Brumbaugh.

WEST CHESTER, Pa, Sept 2t.-Sena-
tor Penrose in his present campaign in
Chester County finds that he has the
anti-license element to deal with. Mr..
Cole, the head of the Anti-License Orga-
nizatlon in this country, has made a
careful summing UP of the temperance
vote and he figures that the vote will
be fourfold larger than it has ever been
in the past. He says the temperance tide
has been rising since June r. l.. Eyre
and County Treasurer Fred Mcdonald, as
Republican Committee, voted for the local
option resolution.
Mr.. Macdonald, chairman of tho
County Republican Committee. is ex-
pected to WELD his power. along with
that of Mr.. Eyre. in the effort to cor
vince the voters that their vote on local
option was the right thing under stress
of present conditions and that It really
meant nothing save to gull the people.
Chester County will undoubtedly give
q majority for Doctor Brumbaugh for
Governor. On this point all parties and
factions seem to agree. TO all ntents
and purposes the sentiment against Mr..
Penrose Is nearly as pronounced.
The Penrose people are carrying on what
old-time Republican courage appears to
have oozed out and this condition of af-
fairs serves further to accentuate the
statement that things are different
now; that the machine which for many
years boldly carried aoft the Penrose
banner, is now compelled to work for
his return TO the United States Senate in
a rather surreptitious manner. The
average voter here has grown wiser
than he was a few years ago. and in
to his taking on wisdom he
has become enducd with a hardihood
which comes with casting off the collar
OF bossism and standing forth free
man.
1t is said upon good authority that
Mr.. Penrose is being kept advised of the
changed condition. There Is no an
as yet that the Senator is
to visit Chester County during this con-
test To those who are not informed on
the conditions, this seems very strange,
but to those who know what's doing, the
reason for his staying out of the county
Is obvious.
Dr. BrumbauGh is TO come here some
time during the campaign and his visit
Will serve to bring out the strength of
the Republican forces as we'll as many
others who are quietly resolving to give
him the support.
