O. Sherwood Eddy, Y. M. C. A. secretary in Asia, addressed members of the Y. M. C. A. and others this afternoon at the association building on the need of Y. M. C. A.s in Asia. In India, China and Russia the need for trained Y. M. C. A. secretaries is greatest, the speaker declared. He said It is necessary to send two men to Russia, where they now have the chance of educating college students. Fifteen men at least must be sent to China to take advantage of the great opportunities for expansion allowed by Chinese officials. The chance in China for Y. M. C. A. workers is such that 400,00 men may be converted within the next fifty years, if men to take up the work are sent there now. Mr. Eddy spoke of the religious, moral, industrial and economic awakening of China and showed the appalling conditions existing in some of the places which vigorous work by the Y. M. C. A. men will eliminate in a short time. As on instance he told of a five year-old girl, sold for twenty collars, who was so severely beaten by her mistress that gangrene resulted and she lost both hands and both "feet. . In India Christianity Is gaining at the rate of fifty per cent in a decade, and seven times as fast as the population is gaining, the speaker said. "The Christian religion is the only hope of China, the only means of centralizing the thoughts and ambitions of four hundred million people is gaining but can ain faster with the aid of Y. M. C. A. men," he said. "If these men are sent now, they will arrive at the crucial moment." Mr. Eddy's speech lasted almost an hour and a half during which time he held the absolute attention of every member of his audience. Prof. Scott of Earlham, who has offered to go to China, spoke for a short time following Mr. Eddy's speech.

INDIANAPOLIS WRECK Fatal For One ManOthers Injured. -Two (National News Association) INDIANAPOLIS. May 19. One man was killed, another probably fatally injured and a third desperately hurt this morning when two freight trains met head-on on" the Lake Erie tracks a short distance north of Thirty-fourth street The alleged failure to obey orders and take a sidirig on the part of the crew of the north-bound train is said to have caused the accident. The dead: S. T. COLLARD, 23, fireman on the south-bound train; crushed to death when he jumped from the cab. The injured: .., ERNEST COGGILL, 46. engineer on same train; struck telegraph pole when he jumped and suffered injuries which probably will result in death. JOHN LORD; 2226 East Washington street, fireman on the in-bound train; badly scalded. Both the Injured men were taken to the Deaconess hospital. Other members of the crews of both trains escaped injury, most of them jumping when they saw their danger. Collard, fireman of engine No. 8231 and drawing a heavy freight train, is said to have received orders to take a switch a short distance south of Thirty-fourth street. Crash Heard For Blocks. The south-bound train had the right of way and was entering the city at high speed when the other engine loomed up suddenly on the track ohaa nnlv "1 Art frapa onravr TVi aa was a sudden shrieking of whistles and the two heavy freight engines met with a crash that awakened sleepers for blocks around. The freight cars immediately behind both engines were splintered and the engines themselves were badly wrecked. nUHE WHISKERS. Delicate Nerve Signals That Guide the ! Lion In the Jungle. ' Because a cat can go about so safely and rapidly in the dark without injury to himself or without running into things nearly every one believes it is due entirely to the fact that he sees with his eyes in the dark. That a cat can see to a certain extent in the dark is quite true, but it is doubtful if be could go about so rapid- - ly in total darkness were it not for his long whiskers. Note a cat's whiskers and you will see they are always as long, generally longer, as his head is wide, and, a cat's head is as wide as his body. These delicate hairs that project from the muzzle of the cat family are wonderful mechanisms. Each one grows from a follicle or gland nerved to the utmost sensibility. Its slightest contact with any obstacle Is instantly felt by the animal, though the hair itseif may be tough and insensible. Consider the lion stealing, through the Jangle at night in search of prey, when the least stir of a twig gives alarm. The lion's whiskers indicate through the nicest nerves any object that may be In his path. A touch stops him short before pushing through some close thicket where the rustling leaves and boughs would betray his presence. Wherever his head may be thrust without a warning from the vibrissa there his body may pass noiselessly. It is the aid given him by his whiskers, in conjunction with the soft cushions of his feet, that enables him to proceed as silently as the snake. New York Americas.

Made For Fat Men. One of the narrow arches in the gallery of the chapel at Columbia university is not exactly symmetrical, although the defect is not noticeable to the casual observer. The reason foi the widening of the arch after its original construction had rise in a somewhat humorous occurrence. One of the early visitors was a remarkably fat man. who found himself wedged into the arch when he tried to squeeze through and waa extricated with some difficulty. The builders, recognizing the possibility of other fat people being numbered among the future visitors, decided to widen the arch, saccriflcing symmetry and harmony to practical need, as the pier was so constructed as to bear no loss of width on one of its 6ides.

Those who are Invited to spend a few days with the kins at Windsor an sometimes apt to be rather overcome by the grandeur they find, and an excess of shyness, something like stage fright is in some cases the Inevitable accompaniment of the first evening at the castle. In Queen Victoria's time guests wert bidden only to "dine and sleep." Therefore all they saw of their royal hostess was comprised in a few moments' conversation in the drawing room after dinner unless they happened to be near the qneen at the dinnet table. This Is all altered now. Gnests are bidden to stop two or three days and consequently see much more of the king and queen than in former times. The question of dress always is a great problem with the ladies "commanded" to Windsor castle, for, instead of acquiring only one smart evening toilet and suitable jewels for a "dine and sleep" visit of one night, quite an out fit must be laid in for three or four days' stay. No particular dress is required on arrival, as guests are shown at once to their rooms, but next morning it is necessary to appear rather smartly dressed for breakfast, which is quite a formal meal at the castle. Then another change of toilet is required when the time comes to Join the shooters at luncheon and yet another on returning to the castle for 5 o'clock tea. Every night, too, a different toilet must be worn, suitable to the royal surroundings and proportionately expenaive. London Answers.
