Horseshoe Superstition.

A well-kn0wn writer of curious his
tories says Of the horseshoe: TT was
the custom long ago to place in every
church and home an image of Its pa
tron saint. Around the head Of this
Image was carved a halo or glory, as
we see ii painted In all old pictures.
Sometimes 1T was piece of polished
metal. The halo often remained after
the figure of the saint had disappeared
and was fastened at the door as SUBJ
stitute for the image itself. Soon these
pieces of semi-circular metal became
articles Of sale In the shops, presently
taking the shape of the horseshoe !;
they finally became the symbol of that
protection which the saint was thought
to give, and thus originated the charm
implied to the horseshoe This myth
is poetical. There U.s. however, more
prosaic account for the reason that the
horseshoe Is so often deemed to pos
sess the virtues of an amulet 1t is
said that the shoe naturally reminds
one of the horse, the noblest of domes-
ticated animals, and was first hung up
indoors and out that men might al
ways have in sight, and thus in mind,
a symbol of the creature who has been
mans most efficient helper in advanc-
ing his civilization"

NJ. X. Caldwell, Of Fort Worth, d.
vision and commercial supcrinten-
dent Of the Southwestern Bell Tcle-
phone Company and Geo. II. Hill,
OF Amarillo, district manager. Of the
company, were here wednesday as
cusglng business conditions with the
local manager, Mr.. Phillips.
These men are well impressed with
the spirit Of proRressivcness that
seems 10 envelope the entire city OF
Lubbock, and the adjoining territory
and said that some Of the rapid im-
provements here were little short OF
miraculous, insomuch as there have
been so many obstacles 20 crowd the
way Of those who would progress,
and encouraged the people Of Lub-
book county to continue IN the az
gressivc campaign to development.
When we realize that the tele-
phone company has practically as
much invested In the city as any other
firm, individual or corporation we
should remember that they realize
the value Of this progrcssiyeness TO
their business and Lubbock, and
should follow their splendid example
OF boosting everything that tends to
make Lubbock any bigger or better.
There Is only one common sense way
70 look at the increased taxes we shall
have TO pay for the improvements we
must have TO take our place among
the really big cities Of the states, and
place Lubbock In the city class, and
that Is 10 make our businesses de-
velope with the rapid progress Of the
town that we may realize something
in return for these investments and
make taxpaying welcome duty in-
stead OF hated imposition.
There are only two kinds Of towns
in the world, and those are dead and
live ones, and II Lubbock people
think for minute that because Lub-
book Is on the Plains and In the best
farming section anywhere lis build
ing Is an automatic proposition that
needs nothing but hot air, they are
sadly mistaken. The development OF
Lubbock and Lubbock county TO the
places they deserve Is big job, and
one with which only big and energet-
&c men can expect 20 achieve.

TOLL IN
TRAIN CRASH IS
now PUT At 81
Of $50 Injured in Missouri
Hospitals, a Number Are
Expected to Die.
BY Universal Service.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Aug. death
had claimed a toll of thirty-seven
lives today in the rear-end collision
on the Missouri Pacific railroad
at Sulphur Springs. Mo-, Saturday
night, as investigations began to de-
termine it's cause and fix response
bility.
Nearly $50 injured were in hos.
pitals here. and 1t was expected
that some of those who are in a
critical condition may die.
A coroner's inquest was being
held at De Soto, at which all sur
viving members of both train crews
were to be the principal witnesses.
One presumption was made that
Engineer Matthew Ginger" Glenn,
OF the Texas flyer, which plowed
through the rear of the combina-
ton local standing on the tracks,
had disregarded a block signal be-
fore reaching the point Of the dis
aster.
Glenn was killed outright when
he attempted to jump clear of the
collision. Clutched in Glenn's hands
were train orders which he had been
given ION the run" few minutes
before the crash, and II is presumed
that possibly he was reading the
orders when he passed the warning
signal.
"The flyer was behind schedule
and was attempting to make up
lost time when II rounded a curve
and came upon the local, which was
taking water"
The speeding train, before coming
into view OF the train ahead. was
at the trestle upon which the rear
end of the local train was standing.
Four wooden coaches were ripped
to bits and two others were thrown
down a steep embankment which
lay alongside the tracks.
The terrific force of the impact
plowed through six coaches and
crushed almost fiat a steel coach in
| the fore part of the local.
Human wreckage-a mangled
mass of dead. and injured-was
strewn along the right of way for a
distance OF approximately 100 yards.
Injured and dying men, women and
children with CHASTITY bleeding ir-
juries> lay moaning and crying &
the wreckage. y
Practically all of the dead and In.
jured were brought to this city.
Three Investigations were get
ting under way today. Besides the
inquest being conducted by Coro-
ner George w. Elders, officials
Of the Missouri-Pacific Railroad
were laying plans to hold an In.
vestigation at Poplar Bluffs, divi
sion point Of the road.
A third probe was being started
| by the Missouri-Pacific Service
Commission to which an official
report of the wreck will be filed
by the railroad company.
