A Konon "Wreck.
"The southbound passenger train on the Motion was wrecked on the Salt Creek bridge, near Bedford at 4:30 p. m.t Jan. 7. Tho cold weather caused the truck on the forward end of tho baggage car to break, and they dropped, lodging between the bridge timber in such a manner that the trucks on all the other cars were pulled from their fastenings. The momentum of the train was sufficient to slide all tho coaches over the broken trucks. All the coaches except the chair car cleared the bridge and rolled down the embankement, where they caught tire. The flames were extinguished before any great damage had been done bv lire, and the work of rescuing the passengers began Strange as it may seeiu only four persons were seriousl) injured. Miss Adams, of Nashvillr was so badly hurt that life was despair ed ol', and another woman and herdaughter were very seriously injured. James Osgood, a traveling man from Chicago,' had both legs broken and was injured internally. James Jcnning, conductor, was slightly injured as were a score or more of passengers. The engine also left, the track, but engineer Muir and his lireman escaped by jumping. The chair car, which contained eighteen passengers, was thrown upon its side, one end projecting over the broken bridge. All tho floor timbers of the bridge were displaced. The bridge is badly wrecked, and the top of it will have to be entirely rebuilt."—Indianapolis News.

Toj True, Too.Tras,
Iheie is troublo of a serious nature browing in the republican ranks, trouble the bosses can't subdue. Thcro appears to bo a disposition among a half doze* or more of the faithful to wear the crown that usually sets gracefully o& the brow of the Chairman of tho county central committee. There is only one crown, but six or seven eager brows ars clamorous to climb under it, hence thd trouble. The party seems to be dividod up in factions each striving for supremacy. lor the past ten days every precinct in the county has held meetings ilh a view to making a selection but the end flits nimbly further and further into the golden hence with each gather, ing. lhe first trouble arose between the city and county politicians. The members in the county claim tho hoa-r or husnevtr been placed among them, that each former chairman has bees controlled by certain city factions wha totally ignored' the interests of thft country men, but this voan/diey-hav* declared themselves. piHtiy want a ma* cuosen from their yfmks who will stanA uncompromised ,to any faction and threaten disaster to their party if thoir wishes are now gratified. There are five factions in the city, each defiant and threatening. C. N. Williams, th6 old chairman,heads one faction, and is pressing his claim to tho position on the strength of his former good work in the capacity of chairman. W. E. Nicholson is the ideal of another wing, and cites as 'i an evidence of his hustling qualities his race for city treasurer last year. An.-* other element is grooming Frank Dice a a dark horse and is reasonably suro of capturing tho persimmon, Henry Clements, tho inierrifiod, has an aching' void under his vest which his frionda will try and satisfy, and last, but not" least, bobs up James O'Shaunessy Haniilton, tho great Irish Gladiator and promoter of republican interests. Jas, places great stress upon his ability aa a wire puller and organizer and clainiB to carry the on tire Irish vote in his vest pocket. James is possibly tho most aggressive of any of tho candidates and stands like tho giant oak under whosa wide spreading branches are sheltered the emerald wing of tho party. All in all it is a pretty kettle of fish, the rads havo gotten into but as it is in the other fellow's pasture wo will lot them look after thoir own swine.

The Sham and the Real.
'. Every good thing has its imitators, every genuine article its counterfeits. The Ammonia and Alum Baking Powders sold over the counters are no more like Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder, than the paste is like the real diamond, or a counterfeit is like one of the old master's geliuine paintings.
When greedy and merciless manufacturers claim their adulterated and harmful baking powders are as good as Dr. Price's, they know they are not telling the truth. These people know they are destroying the stomachs and the complegsaTof the consumers, and there are many grocers recommending such powders over their counters—knowing same to be injurious and worthless—simply to make a large profits
Dr. Price, a concientious physician, has spent, a lifetime in perfecting and popularizing his Cream Baking Powder, the only .Pure Cream Tartar Powder now to be obtained.
Multitudes of imitators all over the land have sprung up, not to imitate the purity of Price's Cream Baking Powder, but to see how cheap they could make their counterfeits and hoodwink the public.
Some use Ammonia and others Alum, but all these shams cry in chorus, "Buy this, its just as good as Dr. Price's and much cheaper.
Price^ Creasn Baking Powder is the standard for purity and perfection the world Over, and is beyond comparison. •T^ D*. Price stands for Pure Food and a foe to all shams.
