DIVIDED FREIGHT TRAIN.
Ex- Railroader Adopted a Unique Plan
to Get to his Warm Fireside. :

staunton, Va, March 3o:-The Cir

uncoupling freight train and endan-
cer;ne the lives of many people. Ev-
idence introduced showed that Slap
les one day last December was drlV-
inp to his home in the mountains
with his wife and several Children
one a month old baby, and that a
long freight train blocked cross
ing.
The temperature was below zero,
and there being no indication that
the freight would move any time
soon Staples took the initiative ana
sicnalled the engineer for slack, be-
inr an old railroad man. He then
unocupled the cars which blocked the
road and signalIed forward, and IN
this manner got lis freezing fanny
IT, q warm fireside at home. Eleven
cars were left on the track, and the
FREIGHT having pulled out, number
four, an express, was in danger, but
q brakeman who was left in the ca
boosc signalled the passenger tram
and averted a wreck.
Staples was sentenced to one min
ute in jail and fined 500 Wednesday
but a motion has been made to sci
the verdict aside.

Richmond. Va, Marcn 3O.-When
the State Board of Education met
Yesterday to consider State textbook

into q huhbub when letter bearing
the resignation Of DR.. J. D. Eggles-
ton, j., president of Virginia Poly

sition TO which he had not qualified,
and further point WINS made that
the resignation should have gone to
the General Assembly, which elected
him, and not the board.

The Delhi Wrecked

The freighter Delhi, of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company, struck a reef at Strait island, in Sumner straits, about 8 o'clock Monday evening, aud is perhaps a total loss. After she struck an attempt was made to back off into deep water, but another wave came along and drove her still higher on the reef, where she rested on the sharp rocks, with her engines running, the engineers having been driven from their posts toy the crashing timbers before they could shut the throttle. The engines continued to run until the ship settled and the rocks punched through the engine bed and the pistons were damned. The crew took to the boats at 10 o'clock, and about lO3O the Alameda came along and picked them up, bringing them to Juneau with the exception of Capt Mccarthy, Chief Engineer J. W. Callow, the first officer and five of the crew. One of the life- boats capsized, but it's occupants were picked mp unharmed except for the shock of the cold water
 The Delhi was proceeding from Craig to Wrangell, and her cargo consisted of fifteen tanks of fuel oil and a number of empty tanks. The total value of the cargo was placed at S4OO The Delhi was wooden vessel built about nine years ago, and her value was in the ueighborhood of S25O,OOO. The auteuae for wireless were strung from her masts, but the electric engines had not been installed. As it was the arrival of the Alameda was very fortunate.

FOLKS GOOD OPINION.

Few persons do not value the good
opinion Of others. Pulling down the
character of someone else is not the
way to build up your own; the ruin
OF another does not mean your build
Ing up. There are some who appear
to think anothers possessions some
thing taken from themselves. This
is mistake. To point out an error
In another's character is not to prove
corresponding virtue in ones own,
II we decry another for being. miser.
ly. of disagreeable disposition, extrav.
agant or stupid. and expect the hear.
er to see the corresponding virtue in
ourselves, we need to learn that this
Is not what the hearer usually sees.
Rather he thinks how unkind such
talk is and attention is called to fail
lngs in the speaker which would prob
ably otherwise not have been noticed.
Let your chief aim be to make your
self worthy of the good opinion of 9th.
ers Belittling them is plain ac-
knowledsment of conscious fault Of
your own. The way to win the good
opinion Of others is to be worthy of
1t. II you are you will not need to
call attention to it.

THE OLD MAN.

What can an OLD man do but der
sang an embittered singer What, in
deed? In the Osler-obsessed world
what remains for the elderly man
whom human needs will not permit
to sit by the fireside? The cry III
all lines OF human endeavor is for
young men. The older man. steps
slowing. eyes dimming. shoulders
dropping. are "scrapped" and sent to
the human junk heap along with other
waste material of humanity. In sane
Europe, previous to August 1. the old
man had a place. He WAS a mender
of roads, a tender OF looms, gate
tender, a tOy-finisher. something that
gave him some part in the days work.
In American cities he has been
sweeper of streets and a watchman.
but the tendency is toward the en-
ployment of younger men in these
places In this America Of the femin-
list trend women are doing much OF
the work that has for generations
fallen to the male whose powers were
beginning to fail. We have not yet
come to the plan Of old-age pensions.
but these must come unless a place
can be made for old men of America
In the vast and complicated machinery
Of American industries. With every
period Of business depression the ne
little nearer. To place the old man at
work might mean the slowing down of
some Of these industrial devices OF
ours that are somewhat overspeeded
To assume old-age pensions means ad
ditional tax burdens.

MOTHERS DUTIES Defined

A cheerful mother is the homes great
est blessinS-more to be desired than q
scientific economist. The nervous, emo
tiOnai woman cannot always be cheerful.
Therefore the mother should look well to
her health. Il is imperative that she
should take Q little time each day for her
! self, even il some household duty is nek-
iected. In the time she sets aside for
herself she should do the purely personal
things which all women need. such as
caring for her hair and nails, or her COM
piexion, never forgetting that her husband
and children will repay in admiration for
all the care she puts on herself.
KnowinE how to rest is an art, and few
women are artists in this line. Don't
say, II can't rest" You ccn; it is just q
matter of thinking right. There is no one
SO busy that she cannot let 10 at least FIVE
minutes at time every hour or SO. You
may not be able TO take q nap after
dinner, but you can close your eyes, let
your muscles relax at frequent intervals
during the day. You'll work twice ss
fast afterward and fight of wrinkles for
years.
Mother should take time for reading,
select good, eheery, optimistic literature,
and try to live by its guidance. The ex.
penditure Of this time may seem impos-
sible to many mothers, but all could do
it if they would, and they would do it il
1t were necessary for the welfare of some
other member Of the family.
Try to start the day right, and main.
tain an even spirit through its hours. A
bright story, merry song, an amusing
anecdote run over in the mind will start
you of on the right track, and it is easy
to keep soins after good start.
A woman's duty to her family is to be
we'll dressed. Do not for moment be.
little the influence your clothes have upon
the loved ones in your family. This is
your kingdom to rule; from it radiates
your personality and your influence on the
outside world. Never let the thought
come to your husband or children that
you are back number"
There are many women who reserve
oil Of their best garments for eyes outside
the home, and while il 10 commendable to
be nicely and becominsy dressed when in
public, there is also q strong reason that
q mother should look her best with her
family. 1t has been harped upon contin.
ually that wife should "dress for her
husbands eyes," but there are other eyes
in the fsmily which it may be ss we'll to
please. A woman reprssents everything
in the world that 10 best to her children,
and it 10 her attitude towards things that
is recognized and initiated. Nothing is
swseter than the look OF admiration in
the eyes Of the little ones when the one
perfect woman in the world puts on some
becoming garment. The mother who
goes about the house untidily dressed
loses caste with her babies.
As you build and beautify your home,
Grace yourself with clothes which will
complete the picture. Do not be the one
jarrine note; create an atmosphere in
your home Of womanIy charm that will
delight the eyes Of all who enter.

Wrestling is the most scientific and
strenuous of indoor sports. Ours is
an age when skill and supreme effort
are valued as seldom before. Yet
wrestling sinks lower in public favor
year by year. Why? The answer is

port of a recent match. "Grunt with
pain" Much Distress "A punish

Of the expressions sprinkled down

strong. The first fall was not proper

had secured hold causing such
frightful pain that the other had to
yield. In the second bout, the victor
made another attack on his oppon-

til the weaker man went down. The
time consumed in these gentle opera
tions was So minutes for the first
