FATAL WRECK
LAID To SPEED

LIMA, Ohio. Dec. % G.N.SJ.
Charges that the train was
travelling at excessive speed were
made here today as an investiga-
ton was started into the Erie
railroad tragedy in which three
persons were killed and several
others injured near here last
night.
The train was going at so miles
an hour when it struck the
switch at the Detroit, Toledo and
1ronton crossing, two miles south
Of here, according to a report
to F. j. Tamplin, of Huntington,
Ind, Erie superintendent.
The engine, baggage and
mail car and two passenger
coaches plunged through a cross
} ing signal tower. Fire broke out
In the debris.
Tamplin said the train should
have been slowed down to about
is miles an hour to make the
switch.

course. it is not necessary to have
utensil of this sort to boil rice we'll A
large kettle of water must be boiling
when the rice is scattered into 1t, ana
it should then be cooked rapidly to pre-
vent its sticking to the bottom OF the
kettle. When it Is tender 1t should be
drained in a colander or stralner
rinsed with cold water and set IN the
oven to dry thoroughly.
Another method which is favorite
of mine is to use twice as much colo
water. and to cover and bring IT 10
boil in the top Of large double boiler
Cover and let boil for 10 minutes over
a low fire. BY that time the water Will
be absorbed Then set over hot water
for 10 or Is minutes more. The grains
will swell and be almost dry when the
cover is removed. as it should be for
few minutes before serving. to let out
the steam. l call this the Chinese
method because Chinese woman
showed me this method, but there prob
ably are many other methods just as
typically Chinese.
The third method. which is best when
rice IS to be used as a dessert, is 10
steam it in a double boiler with milk,
using three times as much milk as rice
This method takes about 40 minutes
If YOU want to cut down the time you
can start the rice with water over the
direct heat, and after it has boiled 10
minutes add milk and finish cooking II
over hot water. Rice cooked with milk
makes a delicious dessert when COM
bined with whipped cream and fruit OF
almost any kind-freSh or canned.
The rice may be cooked. the cream
folded in and put into mold to chill.
1t can be turned out OF the mold and
surrounded with the fruit at serving
time. Sometimes fruit Is put into the
rice with or without the use of the mold.
This mixture can also be frozen in the
tray Of the automatic refrigerator.
OF course. the most favored rice pud-
ding is that very simple baked pudding
which depends for its favor upon long,
slow cooking. 1t is favorite pudding
among men. and there are one or two
chop houses and restaurants which
make it speciality. Next to It in popu-
larity is that combination Of soft Gus
tard and rice, baked Just long enough
to brown the top
When rice is used as q main course
1t usually is served accompanied by a

favored sauce. 1t combines well with

AUTUMN
BY D. G. PEATTE.

!" HE last of our regular Winter
birds are now arriving Among
those that are habitualiy behind
i the others are the most incon-
spicuous feathered citizens
know-the tree sparrow, that seems
scarcely more than a withered but ami
mated leaf blowing through the trees
upon an Autumn wind, and the pine
siskin, who takes first prize for COM
plete unimportance.
The siskins are busy enough about
some business that only they under
stand, but they are SO tiny, SO dull OF
thin, wiry chipping, like the sound of
cold wind passing through spinnet
in forgotten attic, that they make
somehow a wintry and sad impression,
for all their activity.
Late, too, are some OF our water
birds. The loon arrives, at the earliest,
about the 25th of October, and on the
average around the 9th Of November.
will wager, however, that most folk will
not see the looms down the river, for
one must have a boat and trained
huntsman's or ornithologist's eye
and patience. The same applies to the
hooded and red-breaSted merganSers.
But there are three extremely late ar
rivals that anybody can recognize and
will certainly see if he keeps his eyes
open while near the Potomac or the
Eastern Branch.
Most famous Of these is the Canada
goose, whose arrival in November is
taken as the signal of Winter, at least
in regions to the north of us, with less
happy climates. Here, however, they
are but part OF the phenomenon OF
Fall. Few pause long in or near Wash
ington. For every wild goose there are
10 gunners abroad on the Potomac flats
these days, and unlucky is the goose
that plans to Winter here. But in nil
grafton, Winging high, in their famous
flying wedge" one sometimes sees
them, OF an Autumn twilight, even while
standing on SO prosaic place as the
Key Bridge.
From the Key Bridge is the place to
watch the herring gulls, whose return
is the signal that the arrival of our
winterlng birds is complete Coming
from the Arctic, and wishing for no
tropical Winter, they arrive at leisuxT,
but when they come it is to stay and,
moreover, they seem to enjoy showing
themselves. Nobody molests them, for
they are not good to eat and they are
useful scavengers of river offal Later,

habit the high mountains just above the
timber line. and they dearly love the
dangerous ice-covered slopes or hog
backs" over which they climb with ease.
The boldest hunter dares not follow,
and though he is often willing to risk
his neck in order to get close to these
famous climbers, there are places which
he realizes it is physical impossibility
for him to go.
Rocky Mountain goats are not fear
less. They are extremely stupid and
they will enter a camp, watch the men,
and sit down dog fashion" TO observe
the activities without seeming to take
in a thing. One will even let hunter
come close enough to get a good look at
him without any trace of fright. \
They are high -shoulderd and low
quartered creatures. with sto1ky legs,
thick-set body and shaggy p-iage. The
long face appears longer f.cause OF the
sharp, black-pointed hens. The ears
are small. and in the Winter entirely
covered with hair. The eyes are small,
and behind each ear there is bare
patch OF oily skin about the size of,
half dollar. The head is carried low, the
animal weighs about the same as the
Virginia deer. and the female is one
fourth the size of the male. The dense
coat next to the skin is of very fine
wool. and through IT and beyond is the
heavy thatch of coarse hair. When the
coats are clean they are -ellowish white
without one patch Of color. 1t is why
these goats are often unseen on the
snowy peaks The hoofs are small, an
gular and very compact. They are
rubber-soled on the inside and knife
edged on the outside: for this reason
they can scale with ease the bare rocks
and slippery ice.
Little or nothing is known Of the fam
ily life of these goats. Outside OF being
game" for sportsmen, little interest is
taken in them. The meat is too musky
for food and the animal too ugly as
trophy.
