Then He Said “Good Night."

The subdued light in the room made even his “howling” necktie a thing of beauty. For fully three minutes they had sat amid the silence which it seemed cruel to break. Then he stirred uneasily. "Don't you Miss Lulu, that it is a great mistake for a man like me to travel through this life alone?” She regarded him fixedly for a mo.ment. “Won’t your"—the words came slowly and with firm enunciation—“won’t your mother chaperon you?” To this day she is uncertain whether It was sixteen or seventeen seconds that elapsed before he took his hat and his departure simultaneously.

How Sleep May Be Wooed.

Few persona In an ordinary assemblage can tell offhand what positions they assume to Invite sleep, and yet there Is not an individual in the world who has not some trick of distributing limbs and trunk to Insure slumber’s blls»r-i spell whlgh he practices unconsciously. This Is a night habit as perpetual and Immutable under normal conditions as- the succession of the seasons. No sooner are we really off to the land of nod than the night habit asserts Its dominion. Our hands and arms seek the same parts of the bed or the same portions of our bodies upon which we have nightly rested since infancy; our feet and legs stretch at the same angles or loosely entwine in comfortable relaxation as commanded by unconscious will. It is seldom of our own deliberate volition that we place our bodies in position for sleep, as you will find tonight on going to bed if you remember these words. In truth, if you do not seek to combat the instincts you will be surprised at the dispositions of the various members involuntarily If you endeavor to go to sleep by a new arrangment of the body you will also be surprised by the revolt against slumber which will surely ensue, but even before the struggle is well begun you will probably surrender and permit the all-masterful night habit to reinstate those little details of position which long practice has made necessary to your comfort.

A Foolish Lift.

Stratford, Wis., July 28.—William Junemaun was working with a farmer near this place last summer and one day they got stuck with a load of grain. Mr. Junemann says: “We had to lift like fools and my back cracked and started to hurt me so that I couldn’t stand it any longer. The man I was working with took me home and I went to bed. I saw an advertisement of Dodd’s Kidney Pills in the paper and I sent and got one fifty-cent box. Before I had this box used up I began to feel better and I kept on and very soon my back was well again. “I can’t say enough for Dodd's Kidney Pills and I cannot understand why anyone should continue to suffer with backache when Dodd’s Kidney Pills will cure it so quickly.”

Nothing More to Say.

Boutelle of Illinois is bald and Sulzer of New York has a head of hair which might fill the seven Sutherland sisters with envy. In the House recently Mr. Sulzer taunted the Illinois member with being unable-to part his hair in the middle. “It is true,” retorted Mr. Boutelle, “that I am not one of those whose strength goes to hair instead of brains.” After which Mr. Sulzer had nothing more * say.—Washington Post.

Moving.

“If you had moved as many times as I have,” said the wife of the Methodist preacher, “you would be tired to death of it.” "If you had moved as often as I have,” said the wife of the book agent, “you wouldn’t mind it at all.” And the question now is, Which had moved the oftener?- Chicago Tribune.

BAD RAILROAD WRECKS.

Fatal Disaster* Occur on Pennsylvania and the B. A O. Railroad wrecks in several parts of the country caused loss of life Thursday. Two of them were in Ohio and one la Nebraska. In one, which occurred on the Panhandle, not far from Xenia. Ohio, the co'.’.itlon of the limited train with a loaded coal car which had broken away from a siding and run upon the main track wrecked the engine, burying the engineer beneath it, and caused the explosion of the gas tank under one <A the coaches. This set fire to the coaches. Six passengers, five men and a woman, were burned to death in sight of trainmen and passengers who had escaped from the other coaches, but were powerless to rescue them on account of the intense heat of the fire. Many other passengers were injured. The wrecked train was the Keystone Limited, from St. Louis for New York. While running at over sixty miles a* hour it crashed into a freight car ladei with coal, which had escaped from a freight train and which came tt the limited on a down grade, running at th# rate of forty miles an hour. The impact was terrific and was followed immediately by the explosion of gas tanks beneath the Pullmans. The limited train consisted of a big engine, two mail cars, a day coach and four Pullmans. All but the two rear sleepers were wrecked. There were fifty passengers on the train and it is considered marvelous that any escaped. Many were asleep when ths crash came and those in the Pullman cars were hurled from their berths into the mass of wreckage. For more than two hours the debris burned, and It waa only put under control when the fire department from Dayton arrived and reenforced the local firemen. Thirty miles south of Zanesville, Ohio, on the Ohio and Little Kanawha branch of the Baltimore and Ohio the rear car of a train passing over a high trestle broke its coupling. The car ran on the ties until it fell and rolled down an embankment forty feet high. The coach was demolished, two persons were killed, four mortally injured and a score seriously hurt. A Rock Island train jumped the track three miles west of South Omaha, Neb., ' killing the fireman and fatally injuring I the conductor. Two express messengers were hurt.

LOSSES IN THE PHILIPPINES.

First Compilation Sbowinc Casualties Amons the Troops. The casualties in the American armj In the Philippines from Feb. 4, 1899, the opening of hostilities by the insurgents, until April 80, 1902, which date is given as that of the virtual ending of the Insurrection, have been made public by Major James Parker of the Adjutant General’s office, being the first compilation of the sort relating to the warfare in the archipelago. The losses from all causes are given a* follows: Killed or died of wounds, 68 officers and 936 enlisted men; deaths from disease,47 officers and 2,535 enlisted men; deaths from accidents, 6 officers and 125 enlisted men; drowned, 6 officers and 257 enlisted men; suicide, 10 officers and 72 enlisted men; murdered, 1 officer and 91 enlisted men; total deaths, 139 officers and 4,016 enlisted men; wounded, 190 officers and 2,707 enlisted men, a total of 2.897; killed and wounded and deaths other than by disease, 282 officers and 4,188 enlisted men; total, 4,470. A large proportion of the deaths by drowning occurred in action or in active operations against the enemy. Major Parker makes the percentage of killed and wounded to the strength of the army 9.7. There were 2,561 engagements with the enemy, more or less serious. The larger proportion of these fights were attacks from ambush on the American troops or skirmishes in which only small detachments took part. “In almost no case in these engagements,” says Major Parker, “did American troops surrender or have to retreat, or have to leave their dead and wounded in the possesion of the enemy, no’withstanding that in many cases the percentage of loss was high.” The number of troops that ha 1 been transported to the Philippines and had arrived there up to July 16 last was 4,135 officers and 123,803 men. The average strength, taken from monthly returns for the period of the insurrection, was approximately 40,000.

THE RAILROADS

The Northwestern management has improved the tourist sleeper service between Chicago and Portland. The Southern Railway Company has acquired trackage from Savannah and Jesup into Jacksonville, Fla., and is now running its own trains into the latter ,citjr. • The Burlington road has been notified that the government will construct a new overland stage road from Cody, Wyo., to the eastern outlet of Yellowstone Park. The Southern Pacific's statement for May shoW» that for the eleven month* 110,950,000, or practically the whole surplus after charges, has been devoted to improvements. Officials of the Burlington road i»y that Nebraska ia in the midst of the greatest winter wheat harvest in ita historj, and that estimates of the crops of both wheat and corn have been entirely too low. Along the Burlington lines for several years an enormous work ha* been going on and million* of dollars have been expended in reducing grades, taking out curves, building double track and putting in new steel bridges. Official announcement has been mads by the Northwestern management of the completion of the company’s double track from Chicago to the Missouri river at Omaha. The completion of ths work at an expense of nearly |R>,OOO,OOO will increase by fully 80 per cent the tonnage capacity of the road between the points named.

QUAKES IN THE WEST.

TOWNS IN NEBRASKA AND DAKOTA SHAKEN. Yankton, Tilden and Norfolk Among Cities Affected—Parts of California Also Feel the Disturbance and Some Slight Damage Is Done. An earthquake shock so severe as to cause consternation in many places is reported from towns In Nebraska, western lowa and South Dakota. The disturbance occurred shortly before 1 o’clock Monday afternoon and lasted from ten to fifteen seconds. This was the first earthquake shock ever felt in Nebraska in the history of the State. The wave swept over a stretch about 200 miles square. The center of the disturbance was near Norfolk, Neb., but Tilden, Neb., reports the hardest shock. At that place dishes were thrown down, brick walls were cracked, wells dried up and other damage resulted. Three distinct shocks were felt at Tilden. At the Santee Indian agency several shocks were felt. They were accompanied by deep rumblings. On the Omaha and Winnebago reservation the earthquake terrorized the Indians, who had never experienced anything of the kind. The Indians were holding festivities in honor of visitors from the Indian Territory. Hundreds were gathered in the big tent when the shocks came. Fright seized the gathering and the dances were broken up. These agencies are not far from Mount loula, Nebraska’s volcano, and the Indians immediately gave that mountain the credit for the disturbances. Two hundred towns felt the disturbances. Among those reporting the hardest shocks are Tilden, Oneil, Petersburg, Elgin, Oakdale, Battle .Creek, Norfolk, JEwing, Neligh, Randolph and Clearwater. At Battle Creek there was almost a panic. Houses shook perceptibly and rumbling noises resembling thunder added to the terror of the inhabitants of the place. Many rushed into the streets and for some time would not go near structures that were likely to cause injury in case of a possible collapse. The vibrations were so pronounced as to knock down insecurely fastened brnaments and rattle dishes. The tremor continued for about fifteen seconds and was felt at many near by towns. Yankton, S. D., felt a shock of twelve seconds' duration. The disturbance seems to have been more clearly felt along the boundary line between Nebraska and South Dakota, although a number of places in both States were affected. In Omaha the shake was barely discernible and few people knew of such a thing until the weather bureau reported it. Felt in California. A severe earthquake shock was felt in Lompec Valley, Cal., at 10:55 o’clock Sunday night. The shock lasted fully thirty seconds, and was so severe that dishes, clocks, house plants, etc., were thrown from shelves and furniture and other articles were upset. The people were stricken with terror and ran from their houses, some fearing to return, as other lighter shocks continued for several hours afterward. Another heavy shock was felt at 5 a. m. and one at 11 a. m. Monday. A large water tank was knocked over; the earth cracked at many places. The Santa Ynez river bed slightly changed at places. Meager advices from Los Alamos, near Santa Barbara, report that a severe shock was felt Sunday night at about 11 o’clock, doing $15,000 damage to the property of the Western Union Oil Company at the Garreaga wells. At Harris Station a fissure is reported to have opened, and from it a stream of water two feet deep and eighteen feet wide is flowing. A slight shock was felt in Santa Barbara, but no damage was done. At Santa Maria the vibrations, which were from east to west, lasted forty-live seconds.

CHURCH SERVICE BY ’PHONE.

Result of Wnr Between Rival Companies in Washington, Ind. At Washington, Ind., the experiment was tried on a recent Sunday of placing telephones in the churches, giving connection with the patrons of the line, so that those who chose to hear the sermon without going to the trouble of “dressing up” for a church pw could do so. Ihe town of Washington has been in the throes of a telephone war for some time, and the strife has grown bitter. Both companies have strained every effort to win patronage. Finally the Bell Company resorted to offering church service free at home to beat its rival, the independent company. The Bell Company arranged with the preachers of the town to place telephones in all the churches, and offered connections with their subscribers throughout the town and the country. The pastors accepted tho suggestion, and the first experiment was a great success. * The advantages of the system to the church-goiug public nro obvious, and so are the disadvantages from the standpoint of the preacher. The system make* it possible for a man to sit comfortably at home, smoking bis cigar and holding his Sunday newspaper, while listening to the Scriptural discourse of his favorite preacher. If the sermoq doesn’t strike him right he doesn't have to undergo the embarrassment of getting up and leaving church. He can merely hnng up the receiver and ask central for another church and a better preacher. And if he does not believe in church collection*, or Is careless about putting hl* money into his Sunday trousers, he does not hate to look stern and . unconcerned while inwardly enraged while name persistent Icneon passes the collection box too closely to him

I took it a few months ago when I felt my strength giving away, and it soon made itself manifest in giving me new strength and health.”—Miss Blanch Grey. Mrs. X. Schneider, 2409 Thirty-seventh Place, Chicago, 111., writes: “After taking several remedies without result, I began last year to take your valuable remedy, Peruna, I was a complete wreck. Had palpitation of the heart, cold hpnds and feet, female weakness, no appetite, trembling, sinking feeling nearly all the time.

Advice to Wives. Max O’Rell, in his book, "Her Royal Highness, Woman,” gives this advice to wives: “To rule your busband, my dear lady, do exactly as you please, but always pretend that you do as he pleases. That Is where your ability comes in. Men are ruled, as children are, by the prospect of a reward. The reward of your husband is your amiability, your sweetness, your devotion and your beauty, of which you should take constant care. “Always let him suppose that It Is for him that you wish to remain beautiful. The woman who believes she is asserting her independence every time she puts on a hat particularly displeasing to her husband is as clever and intelligent as the Irishman who buys a return trip ticket at a railroad office, and, on entering the car remarks to the passengers, ‘I have played a gopd Joke on the company. I have bought a return ticket, but I don’t mean to come back.’ ”

The peculiarity of experience as a business commodity is that every one seems to be determined to get it fresh and pay the full retail price for it. There is absolutely no demand for the second-hand article.” —Chicago Post.
