ELT'S ESCAPE

BUmost 'Run Over by Auto as He Waves Hand at Some Children. AN-WTERESTING SITUATION

W&ahington, D. C, Dec. 1. President Roosevelt's fondness for children 'came near causing him to receive a -bump from an auto Sunday morning when he was coming from church. At Fifteenth street and Rhode Island avenue the president, attended 'only by two secret service men, who ere? scouting in the rear, turned his bead as he crossed the street to wave his hand to some children who had called to him. Just at that moment David W. Relnohl, a local business men, came along Jn an automobile. Seeing some one crossing the street ahead of him he let loose a choice assortment of honkhonks, to which the pedestrian paid no attention. Fearing a collision was iminent, Mr. Reinohl applied the brake and came to a dead stop, but not in time to prevent the man in front from tripping into the mudguard of the machine. Ae Mr. Reinohl turned he was asastonished to find himself staring into the face of the president. luwas an interesting situation, but, although the trusty bodyguard in the rear immediately rushed up, one on each side of the machine, the outcome was pleasant. Mr. Reinohl raised his hat. So did the president. 'That was a close shave," remarked Mr. Roosevelt. "It was," said Mr. Reinohl, "but please don't hurt the mudgard." "All right," said the president, and the Incident was ended.

ONE KILLED AND FIVE HURT IN CRASH

Limited Goes Into Freight.

Buckled"

Pittsburg, Pa., Dec. 1. One man was killed, five others were seriously injured and many passengers shaken up when Train No. 5, known as the Chi

cago limited, on the , Pittsburg and Western branch of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, crushed into a "buckled" freight train near Valencia, Pa., about 20 miles north of here. The injured were taken to the Butler County General Hospital at Butler, Pa. The wreck was due to the breaking of a long freight train on the grade near the scene of the accident. One of the cars on the end of the rear part of the disconnected freight lurched out over the north-bound tracks just as the limited came along.

China Boy's Toothache. In China fathers and mothers do not know how to care for their children, ays a traveler in the orient. If a boy's tooth aches, for example, the doctor sometimes hits it hard to kill the worms which he supposes to be gnawing at the root? or gives a little opium to relieve the pain, thus starting a habit which soon makes the boy a useless man.

loops Bowels Open; Free There is no function of the human body so important as keeping the bowels open. Upon the condition of the bowels, more than upon any other one thing, depends the health and well-being of the entire system. There is scarcely a sickness that has not got constipation and stomach trouble complicated with it. It is at the bottom of most of the serious diseases cf life. Every grown up human being: ought to nave at least one full and easy evacuation of the bowels every 24 hours, put unfortunately there are thousands vho do not ret this. No matter what Js the nature or -cause of their constipation, and no matter how chronic and lons-standing It is, they will not find "a 4etter cure than the well-known Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. So confident are the dispensers of this wonderful laxative that It will cure any case of constipation In young or old. that they will send a. free test bottle to anyone who sends name end address to Dr. Caldwell. The sample will do for any constipated person what It did for Mrs. W. D. Fuller, f Baton Rapids, Mich., for Mr. J. F. Edwards, of Lebanon, Tenn., and a host of others in all sections of the country. After having tised the sample they will do s Mrs. Fuller and Mr. Edwards did, which is to go to the nearest drug; store end buy a regular bottle, which costs 60 rents or $1. according to the siie. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is not a tablet r powder, but a liquid laxative tonic, which is what a gtxxi constipation remedy should be. Thousands, who once sent for the free test bottle, now have Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin regularly In the "nouse. It Is the most scientino blending of laxative Ingredients ever put before the world.

If there is anything about your ailment that you don't understand, or If you want any medical advice, write to the doctor, and he will

answer you fully. There is

no charge for this service. The address is Dr. W. B. Caldwell. B04 Caldwell bid. , MonticeUo, 111.

Wetmore, who is the son of Senator Wetmore of Rhode Island, recently met young Rayburn, son of Mayor Rayburn, of Philadelphia, on thestreets, ot Washington, and a battle of words between the two resulted in a personal encounter. The young men were separated before either had done much physical damage to the other. It is rumored that the young men are much in love with the same woman, and are intensely jealous of one another.

THE THEATER

THEATRICAL CALENDAR. GENNETT. "The Matchmaker" Dec. 7. May Irwin Dec. 15. i

NEW PHILLIPS. j Vaudeville all week.

"The Matchmaker." Daniel Sully's new play, "The Matchmaker," in which he will appear at the Gennett theater Dec. 7, is a comedy drama in three acts by Jerrold Shepard The play was written expressly for Mr. Eully and the character of Father Daly fits him perfectly. It is remarkable for its dramatic strength, cleverness of construction and the richness and abundance of its comedy, as well as fidelity to nature of its character drawing. Like "The Parish Priest," it deals with therelations of a pastor with his flock, but there the resemblance ends; this pastor has a very hard time of it and some of the rough, lawless denizens of Boom City, Idaho, give him a great deal of trouble and anxiety. In the end. however, the good father succeeds in bringing the community around to his views, restoring order, straightening out a number of tangled love affairs; showing some hardened sinners the error of their ways and wins the respect of all by his indomitable courage in the discharge of what he considers his duty.

May Irwin Comes. Miss May Irwin will appear at the Gennett theater on Dec. 15, in the great double bill, "The Mollusc," a three act comedy by Hubert Henry Da4es, the author of "Cousin Kate," and "Mrs. Peckham's Carouse," a one act farce, by George Ade. Miss Irwin in these plays appears for the first time under the management of Charles Frohman, and was only induced to return to the stage by the fine opportunities that they afforded for her especial style of fun-making.

FLORIDA'S EXTENT."

The Everglade State I Larsjer Thai Most Folks Imaartne. But few people have any conception of Florida's extent. Jacksonville is about as far north of Miami as she is south of Charlotte, N. C; about as far north of Key West as she Is south of Danville, Va. Ignorance of the extent of Florida leads to many amusing mistakes. We sometimes hear the railroads of the state charged with making poor time. Why, it takes over twenty-four hours to go from Fensacola to Miami. The man who makes this remark would think be was traveling on a flier if be made the .trip from Pensacola to Chicago in the same length of time it would take him to go to Miami. But there is very little difference in the distance. A land trip from one end of Florida to the other is as long as from the lakes to the gulf. A citizen of Maine who makes up his mind to come south may get on the cars and pass through Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia"' and far Into Tirginia. When be has done this he has taken no longer ride than he could have taken by an equally-direct line from one Florida town to another, and there are some men green enough to think they are making poor time when they find it takes them longer to go from Pensacola to Miami than from the eastern to the western side of Maine. Of course the old stagers do not make these amusing mistakes. They have a pretty clear conception of the geography of Florida. There are many, however, who come on their first visit with very hazy ideas of the state. Florida Times-Union.

DEATH WATCH OVER BILLEK

Says Everything Has Against Hinv

Chicago, Dec. 1. Fearing that Herman Blllek, condemned to die December 11, may attempt to harm himself, Jailer Davies has ordered a death watch placed upon the prisoner. Blllek has been inconsolate since the death of his mother and several times has given way to his grief. Blllek's nerve has deserted him. "Everything has gone against me. and I admit I am discouraged," said Billek.

Charity of Former Kins. Henry IT. sought pesce for his soul after the murder of Becket by feeding and sustaining 10,000 people dally,' a proceeding that must have made many a man rejoice In the fall of the "proud prelate." Quaintest of all, though, was the charity of Henry III., who commanded that "in the great hall at Winsore, at a good fire, all tbe poor and needy children that could be found were to be fed. according to the weight and measure 6f the king's children," a queer variant of tbe more modern system of distributing the Maundy money. It is to be feared that nowadays, says the London Chronicle, tbe amount of food equivalent to "the weight and measure of tbe king's children" would not go far in relieving "all tbe poor and needy children that could be found."

Time u4 Book.. The economy of saving time is wise, but there is an economy of spending time. In reading, especially, hurry Is most wasteful. Beading is the making of thoughts, of Ideas, of pictures In the brain. All young photographers know how little is to bemade out of an "underexposed plate," but do they understand that there may be such a thing as an underexposed brain? It takes time to make impressions on the mind. If you read too fast, either aloud or to yourself, or skim over your reading, the mind receives poor impressions or none at all. St. Nicholas.

A Picture of the EnsrH.h Capital of a Century A so. "All the English are mad by nature or by fashion," Chateaubriand writes nonchalantly in the book of his embassy in London (1821), but he had a very gay time with the same lunatics. We hear of dinners, Almack's and le beau monde. "The day was thus distributed in London: At 6 o'clock in the morning one hastened to a party of pleasure, consisting of a breakfast in the country; one returned to lunch in London; one changed one's dress to walk In Bond street or Hyde park; one ressed again to dine at 7:30; one dressed again for the opera; at midnight one dressed once more for an evening party or rout. What a life of enchantments! I shonld a hundred times have preferred tbe galleys." One 6miles and reads on. He found London full of recollections of Bonaparte. "The people had passed from the vilification of 'Nick to a stupid enthusiasm. Hia colossal bust by Canova decorated the Duke of Wellington's staircase." At an evening party at Lord Londonderry's, the English premier, "I was presented by his majesty to a severe looking lady seventy-three years old. She was dressed In crape, wore a black veil like a diadem on her white hair and resembled a queen who had abdicated her throne. She greeted me in a solemn voice with three mangled sentences from the 'Genie du ChristianIsme;' then she said to me, with no less solemnity, 'I am Mrs. Siddons. If she had said to me. 'I am Lady Macbeth, I should have believed her.' John J. a'Becket in Catholic Quarterly Review,

But his mistake . was soon made manifest. When Mrs. Flaxman heard of tbe remark, sbe said: "Let us work and economize. It shall never be said that Ann Denham ruined John Flaxman as an artist!"
