Pa., July 15—The Pennsylvania eighteen hour Chicago and New York train, ea»l bound, ran into a freight here today The engineer was badly injured and the imseengern shaken up. but none killed Obituary. Seldom hae a community been shocked aa m the death by accident of Mr. Samuel Dutcher With scarcely a moment s warning, death | claimed as its victim one in the prime of life with every prospect for future years. How forcibly, at such times as this, is the kindly admonition of Bryant, in those beau tiful words, all his own. impressed | on every mind' "So live, that when thy summons I C lines to join The innumerable caravan, that moves To that mysterious realm where each shall take His chamber in »the silent htlls . f death. Thou go. not like the quarry slave at night, Boonraged to his durgeon, but sustained snd soo»he<l By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch About him. ard lies down to plea* ant dreams." Mr. Dntoher was born in Root township. Indiana. July 4, I*5C. and died on the same farm cn i which he was l>orn. June 2V. 1005, aged 54 rears. 11 months and 25 days. With the exception of one year in Ohio and one in Missouri, his entire life was spent; in the neighliorhood in which he met his death On November 20, , 1873. he was united in marriage to Nancy A Briley, alto of Ads ms county. Tj this union five children. John 8., Fannie E, M Blanche. Agnes J., and Alonzo \V.,i all of whom are living. His father Samuel Dutcher, oi N Y . and Katherine Dutcher of Ohio, j each lived to the age of 87 years, having been residents of Adams county si-out fifty years. Since arriving at manhood he has been a very prosperous farmer, every phase of the work being a pleasure a< *-ei| <<i an interest. He removed u. ms u»e* residence alxiat eight years since. He has always been an adherant and for some years a member of the M. E. church In the home he was kind and indulgent and lived for those about him. While this sad dispensation may to ' us seem untimely, we must remem ber that "We live in deeds, net years: in thoughts, not breath: In feelings, not in figure* on the dial We should count time bv heart throbs when they beat For God. for man, for dntv. He most lives. Who thinks moat, feels noblest., act* the best. Life is but a means unto an end—that end. Beginning mean, and end to all things God." *» 1 .. A L.

STRANGE ACCIDENTS. A Broken Xrek a* thr Kraull nt <h» turn •»< a Foot. "The man who fell out of bed and broke his neck will scarcely attract , more than pasriug notice.” said a thoughtful man. “for then' have been : uaay cases equally remarkable. I re- ; call one ease where a man's neck was i broken by a very slight turn of bls j ' foot, lie attempted to ’catch himself—- ' that i«. to preserve his balance—and I the effort was of «uch violence that he 1 I broke bis neck. Many men have bro- 1 ■ ken their necks by a sudden stumble l and a fall on the sidewalk or by being i knocked down by some hurrying |>ed<-s- > trian. or by a street car or a vehicle of i some sort. “It is not at all utWomtuon for a poI licetran. with no intention of doingI more than «übJue an uuruly member, to break an offender's neek by nipping I him over the head with his club. S -tnetinies the fall which fallows and *ome- | time* the bl »w breaks the ue k of the sffender. S inetiuie* a sudden, violent j motion of the head, a prick jerking I motion, the kind we make when dodg ing. will break the neck. “I recall a ease where a man threw his neck out of joint without breaking I it by throwing bis head to one side ij an eff.irt to dodge a bullet fired at i him at short range. The bullet passed ! i through the ritn of hi* hat. Even after 1 | that be carried his •'•■aid tilted over the , right shoulder and was never able to straighten it.” — New Orleans TitncsI Democrat.

EXERCISE THE EYES GYMNASTICS THAT MAY WORK AWAY THt NtED FOR GLASSES — A < oueee ot Treatment W hich Will atrewMiheM the Maaelww aaA Which la Indoreed by •» K»|ywrt la the Treatment of the Kgwa. Eye gyniuustk’s constitute one of th* applications of the principles of practical pbynictil culture us employed for the purpoee of reHtortng normal conditions to the diseased luxly. Anything which will obviate the neeerslty of putting on glttsiyes Is to be welcomc'l. us everylKHly who has become a slave to spectuch-s will agree. In ninny cases of muscular weakness of the eye certain exercises which nmy be taken at home without apparatus will result in a cure. The symptoms of muscular weskuess include pula through ths eyes and a tendency on the part of the lids to clone. Sotiietlmen it becomes difficult to keep the eyes o|>en. and there is a vagtp- m-unatiou an though some Invisible tone was tugging at one side of the eye until the victim wonders If be Is not becoming cross eyed. In such cases strong glansee support the weakened muscles and relieve the symptoms, but they do not effect a cure. Sometimes they are necessary, but often, ou the contrary, jiersisteut and systematic exercising of the muscles will restore them to a condition of health. I.et the first exercise 1 e taken for the purpose of strengthening the muscles of accommodation. Extend the hand at arm's length with tlie first finger pointing upward. Fix both eyes on this digit and slowly bring it toward | the face until It touches the tip of the I nose. Then slowly carry it away from I the face again until the first position 1* I reached. l»o this three or four time* ! at first, keeping U>th eyes constantly upon the raised finger throegiiout the ' operation described. The second exercise consists in turu- ■ lug the glance upward ami thru downward aa far as possible without a.teri ing the position of the face. Repeat : this two or three times at the first trial, i and then vary the exercise and bring a I new set of mus»!es into play by turn- | ing the eyes first to the r gbt and then to the left as far as possible, the face ! remaining motionless. After two or three movements of this character, 1 with the face still In the same position, carry the glance to its full extent first to the upper right baud corner of the eye, after that to the low* left hand corner, then to the upper left band corner and from there to the lower right hand corner. To complete the series of exercises rotate the eyeballs in their sockets two or three times, causing the glance to reach the extreme limit of vision in making the circle. It is necessary that these exercises be employed with caution at first, tor. otherwise they will tire the muscles and bring ou diazmess or headaches. The fact may be hard to realize, but the whole practice is exactly the same In character and effect as the exercis- | Ing of the muscles of the arm or leg. and It Is just aa certain that the mus- • cles of the eye will be strengthened and developed by the movements described. Persons who are troubled with weak eyes may often secure considerable benefit from the use of the eye cup. This is a small receptacle of thick blue glass and so con«tru<-t<xl that when Inverted it fits tightly over the eye. It costs 15 or 20 cents at the drug st res ..nd should lie used night and morning. The eye cup is employed for the pur- • |-»e of applying salt and water to the ! eye as a tonic. The proportions should ' be a level teaspooaful of salt to a pint : of water. The latter should have been i warujed to altout the heat of the body. Fill the cup with the solution and pla.-e it over the eye. Then turu the bead backward and open the lids. It will : t>e found that there is no unpl.'asant • feeling whatever from the contact of : the salt solution with the eye. As a matter of fact, this solution Is almost I identical with the saline fluids of the : eye. Should the water be u-ed with -ut 1 the salt it would cause the eye to I smart painfully. S g* t attack* -f granulation of the eyelids may lie cured by the use of absolutely pure olive oil. one drop be ng allowed to enter the eye twice a day, I In dropping medicaments into tbe eye I place the finger just under the lower lid and draw that lid out a trifle, ali lowing the remedy to fall upon it. This Is a simple way of accomplishing what many people consider a difficult i proceeding. Above all. in dealing with tbe eye it should be remembered that much depends Ui«>n the condition of tbe general health. A debilitated state of tbe system is very apt to show itself In tbe i -yes. These delicate organs depend I upon the blood to keep them In good I seder, and rich blood and an unim- ; paired circulation are of primary Iml portanev. This calls for plain, nouri ishing food, an almndance of fresh air i and a moderate amount of exercise — I Good Hotisekeeping. XaiMtlenn and Hl» Tatar.
