2,600 Accidents in Month

The report of the industrial board of Indiana for the month of November shows there were 2,600 accidents in the industrial life of the state

in thirty days. Steam railroads led all indus

tries in the state during the month in the num

ber of accidents reported. This of course, may

be due to the extra hazards incurred in that in dustry.

The contemplation of 2,600 accidents in one

month, with the consequent loss of pay to the

person injured, and the damage incurred by the industry in the loss of so many employes, gives food for : thought. - The number of accidents

seems to be a large one. - What' were the causes? Is machinery, despite a state factory law, left unguarded, or does the mechanic take unnecessary risks in the discharge of his duties? It would be interesting to know at what time of the working day the accidents took place. It is conceded that the, vitality of a workman is lowest at the close of day. Perhaps his alertness grows slack as the day's work nears conclusion, the natural result being that he grows lax in handling dangerous machinery. Many of the accidents may be traced to this source.' . The extremely large number of accidents may urge both employers and employes to study the problem and work out a solution. So much is sure, neither the workman nor the employer is pleased over the large number, of accidents and both wish to see them diminished.

Forty-nine Luxury Posts

Forty-nine army posts, facetiously described by a Washington correspondent as so many "beautiful parks," in which the army is supposed 'to be housed has cost the people of the United States about $95,000,000, exclusive of the annual upkeep. What a gigantic waste, what ruthless

squandering of the people's, money I And these

forty-nine poets are designed to house an army of

46,000 'men. Not one of the i posts will hold a brigade If the preparedness program is defeated, and we hope It will not meet this fate, it will at least have thrown some light on the utter foolishness of some of the expenditures made in past years for housing the nation's small standing army. . The prize park of the forty-nine is Fort D. A. Russell, near Cheyenne, Wyoming, which at the close of the Taft administration had cost the government for construction $5,071,070. It will accommodate one regiment of field artillery, one regiment of infantry, one regiment of cavalry, and one company each of the signal corps, hospital corps, and engineers. It can handle a brigade. And yet it is listed among the obsolete

posts. At present it is almost deserted, nearly all the troops having been sent to the Mexican

border.

That a thorough going rehabilitation of the

army is necessary and that . the . preparedness program ought remedy these conditions will be

admitted by all. The United States has paid too

little attention to the condition of its army.

The Washington correspondent goes on to cite

the following examples as indicative of a neces sary change: r-.' .

In 1912, twenty-five Army posts that cost the Government nearly $20,000,000 for construction

were recommended for -early abandonment, but all of them are still doing business at the old stand. Among these are Fort Mackenzie in Wyoming, which has cost $1,218,966. Fort Meade, in South Dakota, is already obsolete, yet

it cost $1,225,787. Fort Robinson, in Nebraska,

was set up. in 1874, close to the Red Cloud Indian

agency. - The military experts say it ought to Y given up. It has cost the Government more tha $1,000,000 for construction alone. Fort Ethan Allen in Vermont is a cavalr station, with accommodations for one regimer of horses, and two batteries of field artillerj The plant has cost the Government a little ove $1,000,000. Then there is Fort Douglas in Utah which can take care of orte regiment of infantry The 'outlay has been a little under $1,000,000

t Fort George Wright in Washington will accom

modate only eight companies of infantry, yet the cost of constructing it was nearly $700,000. Fori Logan in Colorado will take care of 781 officerr and men and its construction cost was $725,000 There is a post at Fort Missoula in Montana that will take only one battalion of infantry yet it cost $600,000 to construct.

! ALASKA ATTIlACTS r f

FORTUNE HUNTERS

WASHINGTON. Dec. 18. In his

forthcoming' annual report Secretary Lane says that ta government should continue Its sympathetic co-operation in the development of Alaska. He

urges that the contusion In administrrtire action In Alaskan affairs should be abolished. "It would be too hazardous a thing to surrender these resources to local control or disposal, for those who have lived In any new

country Know now great the tempta

tion is to grsnt away water front and power sites, forests, and other exceptional resources to those who come offering large sums for quick improve

ment. Yet this should not drive us into a policy that makes slow administration a necessity.

"The confusion in administrative action in Alaska is well known. I have tried to give it currency that it might hasten the establishment ' of some method of co-ordinated control of Alaskan affairs, primarily in the hands of a resident commission but always in touch with and responsive to the wish of congress and the president through one of the departments. That land has a mysterious charm, a pull which affects all who see it and those, too, who know only indirectly of its

largeness, its srandeur. and its economic possibilities. This could not be better illustrated than by the number of applications for places which were

received by the Alasksn Engineering Commission. When that body left for Alaska In the spring the number was over 38,000, and most of those who applied were not out of work but already held positions with railroads, in banks, on farms, or in some city shop.- They wished a taste of the large life of this

hew land. There are many more of

the same desire, some of whom will

make Alaska richer by their presence and find happiness in searching out

the land."

AUSTRIA REPULSED

The Montenegrin legation today issued an official report from Cettinje announcing the repulse of- Austro-Hungarian troops at three points with heavy losses. - The reporWoUows; "The enemy, supported by big guns, hoUy attacked our Sanjak army on December IS. Our .positions were furiously assaulted near Plevlje, Kraljeva and Mataroge. Our troops repulsed the enemy at all points. Inflict

Such a discouraged letter from Har

ry L., of Altoona, Pa., because he hasn't as much money as his rival to

spend on the girl both admire. He is

afraid this will cause him to lose her.

I am sure she is not that mercenary. If she is, this is a good time to find it out.

Requests for the address of Mary Picltford have come to tho office. Address letters to 270 Riverside Drive, Now York.

On Monday we might, be taking j scenes in the Bowery. On Tuesday

we seen some Deauiuui yam; weuhesday it becomes necessary to hunt out a little farm house up in Connecticut; Thursday and Friday were are before some Fifth avenue mansion, and Saturday far out at sea. Sometimes we travel from one end of the continent to the other for scenes. We moving picture people have become nomads, pitching our tents at every rare location. We took a great, many scenes for '"Peppina" around the most beautiful Italian estates I have ever visited. It was the home of a multimillionaire, a palace such as one dreams about or believes exists only between the covers of one's fairy tales. When I came out I dressed in my Italian costume, I found the owner standing near the camera. He was an interested observer and said boyishly, "Well, Miss Pickford. when does the Show begin?" I looked at the skies. There were threatening black clouds floating past the sun and great shadows fell upon the earth. "I'm afraid it will be too flark to take any pictures," I replied, tnighty disappointed, for we had come many miles from New York. He called for his car and drove me miles and miles over his wonderful estate. Desiring to get certain artistic effects, he had made valleys where there were hills and hills where It had been just level ground. In breathless wonderment I sat back while we drove through this fairyland. Just think, Lhere were thirty-six vountains

through the grounds, and they were 111 playing at once. I asksd him with tmasement what made the water that tprang into the air so crystal clear, like millions of little diamonds sparkling In the sunlight. He told me it was because there were filters in every fountain. In the ponds were rare lilies that looked like amber and old gold hose goblets. My fingers almost trembled to touch them, and I grew quite Htziy as I breathed In their heavy tropcal perfumes. I was invited to take unch with the family, and as I look tack npon it I smile to myself, remembering his invitation. "We dine vcy limply." he half apologised, "but you &r nuwt waAcoro"

Never have I seen anything so beautiful as his wife's room; my wordB are too threadbare to describe it. I felt as if I had been whisked into a castle. At the exquisite dresser I hurried with my make-up, but it took me much

longer than usual to get it off, I was

so busy looking around me. And then for the nice, simple luncheon. A simple luncheon to me is a sandwich and a glass of milk, but my host and hostess had apologized for what to me was the most wonderful and elaborated of feasts. I was so excited over a delicious s imported cantaloupe I could hardly swallow it. It made me think of thetime when I was a 'little girl and never could enjoy anthing unless I had stored away a bite for my mother. And I would have enjoyed- tucking one half of that, melon into my blouse to take home with me! Then we had creamed eggs on toast, perfect fried chicken, the beBt butter I had ever tasted and dainty little hot muffins. In fact, there were so many delicious things to eat I would make your mouth water if I dwelt upon them longer. I only write about it to show you why I was so amused when he apologized for their simple luncheon. A beautiful organ, run by electricity, played all the time we were in the dining room. And by contrast I thought of how I fared the day before. A large chunk of bread and butter and a piece of Italian cheese eaten as I rested for a moment, sitting on the doorstep of an east side tenement. They were eager to hear about moving pictures, especially the personal side of our lives. He gave me some valuable suggestions for safe

Investments, and we talked long upon charity. We both agreed that 10 per cent of one's income should go to charity. I told him I gave to the poor when I saw they needed it. One of my most interesting cases is a bright little girl I had taken just in time from squalid surroundings and put in- an invalid home up state. She has been there two years now and. soon I will be able to send her to school. To me charity should ' begin at home, and because it usually does one never really knows what demands are met by those who have large incomes. They do not tell and sometimes the world, not knowing, misjudges (hem. My host agreed with

How to Prevent Croup. Every effort should be made to pre

vent the attacks by giving the child

a light supper and plenty of fresh air at all times. The child should be

warmly clad when out of doors. Especially the- feet should be well pro

tected and under no circumstances should the child be allowed to remain with wet or cold feet. Then watch for

the first symptom, hoarseness, and give Chamberlain's Cough ) Remedy at once and the attack may be warded off. This remedy is a favorite with the mothers of croupy children and can always be depended upon. It is pleasant and safe to take. Obtainable everywhere. Adv.
