2 DEATH DEALT WHEN ENGINE JUMPED TRACK Superstructure of Pullman Car Shaved Off and Rammed Through the Smoker Injured Rushed to Marshall town, Where Hospital Was Filled to Overflowing juries were among the passengers in the day coach and ymokei^ and it is believed that but two of the dead were in the Pullman. By morning: it is expected that the track will be cleared and train sen-ice renewed. « Prof. X. TV. Parrish of Cedar. Falls, teacher in economics at the State Teach ers' college, was one of the first to be taken from the ruins. He was mortally wounded and was rushed to the hospi tal, but died in the ambulance. Dr. J. W. Devrey of Chicago and Doc tor Dunham of Sioux Falls were physi cians on the train. Although injured themselves, they worked hard to succor others. \u25a0lames McXamara, assistant head clerk of the Modern Woodmen of America at Reck Island, tk&b in the smoker. He escaped without injury. SIGHTS WKRB TBRRIBLK I. P. Clark, conductor on the Pullman, was in an upper berth, but, aside from a few bruises, was not injured. C. W. Moier of Walla Walla, Wash., was in a lower berth in one of the Pull man coaches near the rear of the train. "I did not realize it was a wreck," paid he. "It sounded as though a man had thrown a brick on the floor. The tar I was in was well back. In front of it were the-mail and baggage cars. Ahead of these were the smoker and Pullman. I looked out and saw the engine overturned before I realized it. "I saw some terrible things. One man had been driven head first into a window. The glass was broken and was cutting him where his head rested on the sill, and under all that awful weight above he screamed and cried for some one to kill him. I found a stick and broke the glass under his cheek where it lay on the sill, and the man's lower jaw fell to the ground at my feet. "There was an old man running about pleading for us to rescue his son. He was badly hurt himself. The son was cut entirely in two." Miss May Hoffman of Waterloo, one of the dead, was one of a party start ing out on a pleasure trip. Some months ago she took third prize in a national beauty contest conducted by the New York World. EGG LAYING CONTESTS POPULAR IN AUSTRALIA Egg laying competitions are quite popular in Australia, reports a United fstates consular agent, and at the pres ent time each Australian state is run ning at least one competition, the state poultry experts having general supervision over them. In nearly all of the Australian states wheat forms a leading part of the diet of the poultry in these competitions. In Tasmania, however, conditions are different from the mainland of Australia in that very little wheat is produced and much has to be imported, so that a wheat diet for poultry Is not a good business proposition for Tasmanian farmers. This "has led to a trial of oats at the present egg laying competition which 1 visited, high grade oats being very abundant In Tasmania, with always a surplus for export. The competition lias now been going • on for seven months and the results, so far, have exceeded the most sanguine expecta tions of the poultry expert. The lead ing pen of six white Leghorns laid 826 eggs in seven months, including the \u25a0winter period. . The oats are white, heavy feed, given all the year round at the even ing meal. In the morning mash there is a more or less balanced ration. For instance, in ordinary weather the birds, in addition to bran and pollard, would have on consecutive mornings a certain proportion of ground corn, ground barley and ground peas mixed with the mash. However, if the \u25a0weather is wet and cold the birds have ground corn added to the mash \u25a0whether it is the right morning for them to have i^ or not; oa tha other hand, during a spell of warn* or hot weather the com would be left out and cut green food added. R. J. Terry, a Tasmanian poultry ex pert, in connection with this competi tion has put into successful practice an original and novel idea of feeding green food to the fowls, so that the food may be taken as it grows, with out, however, the fowls tearing it up at the roots. The plan is as follows: A portion of the ground is dug 4 inches deep and sown with various needs. The green stuff as it grows is covered by a wooden frame, composed of 3 by 4 inch timber on which \u25a0wire netting is very tightly stretched, so that it is 7 inches above the roots of tbe crop, which the birds are thus pre .vented from scratching or disturbing. The birds apparently take pleasure in "walking on top of the wire and eating the green leaves that protrude through the netting. Their manure fertilizes the soil and increases the luxuriance of the growth. \u25a0 'At the time of my visit a thick crop 1 of Algerian oats had been sown, to gether with lucerne or alfalfa, the idea being that the oats formed a nurse crop for the* lucerne, . which came up very quickly, and after they .were finished the lucerne was a per manent crop to take their place. The trames which I saw at the competition were about 9 by 5 feet and were suf ficient for a dozen birds each. Of course, any sized .frame might be used and quite a variety of "crops sown to milt the various climatic or soil con ditions. This idea seems to have rem edied "a long felt trouble, -In fowls scratching up the food growing for" their diet. Where there is plenty of land for the fowls to get about this trouble may not be serious, but for the small farmer who has only a lim ited amount of space available for growing green stuff for his fowls the idea seems to have much practical ,value. ', Terry, the poultry expert, . who showed me the hens in^the competi tion, stated that for intense egg pro duction a large amount of lime and bone forming material must be sup plied to the birds. He said: You bare to feed them uatmtcrail y. and has it «-tct occurred to you wh»t yon are asking the modern ben 'to accomplish is against what . na ture intended htT to do? ; A natural \u25a0 ben woald lay at the most 24 ejrpg In tbe year; rte. would be called npon to produce 24 egg rbeUa and 24 frames of ehicVens. because, remember, U»at the frame of the eblrk baf to be contained \u25a0in tbe ; ezjr, or tbe egg is not laid. \u25a0\u25a0 Now tbe ben bus : 365 days to pather and Ftnre this frame forming material: hut we srr aokinc. tbe modern \u25a0 com mercial, Ucn to lay ISO to 250 eggt, with ,150 to 250 pep t-bi-1!?, and therefore 150 to 250 frames of , ••hickens mu*t be formed.

"Certain ele ments in this community supposed to exercise great influence. Senators Aid rich and Wetmore, were not just en amored of it."

In ac knowledging the gift he said: "I want to say I value most highly this evidence of your generosity and your confidence. The presidency is not an easy burden, and one's spirit some times lags and 'hopefulness sometimes disappear?,' and it is at such times this evidence of 'your good will' is dear." Senator Aldrich said: 'The tariff for the present is a closed incident For my part, I am willing it should be judged by its effect on the people of the country and their inter ests. "It has been my good fortune in the past loyally to support the president of the United States.

BRITISH POSTAL SAVINGS BANK HOLDS $778,640,000 Establishment of First Institu- tion to Be Celebrated The first savings bank in Great Brit ain was established at Wehdover, Buck inghamshire, in 1799 by Rev. Joseph Smith.. Scotland will celebrate in June of this year the centenary of the found ing in 1810, of a savings institution at Ruthwell, Dumfriesshire, -by the emi nent Scotch divine and philanthropist. Rev. Henry Duncan. In view of the general interest in such a celebration, the directors of the Edinburgh savings bank have taken the matter up and, in co-operation with other leading sav ings banks throughout the United Kingdom, are preparing a plan and pro gram befitting the conference, to be held on this "occasion In Edinburgh, of prominent officers of savings institu tions. It Is that invitations have been sent to many savings banks in all parts of the world to have repre sentatives present. For some years after they were in stituted in Great Britain savings banks were of the nature of agencies carried on by. local philanthropists or trustees, and it was not until 1817 that the gov ernment " officially .'\u25a0 recognized their growing utility to the public by an act of parliament, which brought them all under a system of government control. .Through -the advocacy of the late William E. Gladstone the first postofßce savings bank was ; created in 1861, as a means of promoting thrift. The total savings accounts of the! United King dom amount at present to more than $1,119,295,000, of which the postoffice holds f778,650,000. The aggregate num ber^ of. depositors exceeds 10,000,000. .. • If is impossible'- to derive from any available statistics' a definite idea as to how much money has been saved the dual agency, each, ln its own way, during ; all Uhese years, but Alexander Cargill, manager of the Edinburgh savings -bank,', •: a high : authority \u25a0". on banking and I financial subjectsr, says that ."many '.hundreds - of 'millions ' of pounds' sterling 'have passed over; the counters "-of -"'the -savings banks, *to the great benefit of and ' their families.".
