Ihe engine had passed the mill office, the train was travel ing at a moderate spited, when Friend was observed, by people standing near the mill offioe, jumping on and off cars. These people allege that they 10 marked at the time that they thought it, was a rather dangerous pastime for the boy, but they wore quite a distance nway from him and were therefore unnble to caution him. They saw him fall when he made a grab for hand hol on a box car di- rpcly behind a flat car, and immedi ately started towards him. But be fore, they could get to him t he boy got up, bolting his right leg. They gave him such relief as was possible under the circumstances, then vailed the am bulance. As the engine had passed a consid erable disuaiwe, :uh! as the rear of the train was still around a curve when the accident occurred, none of the train or engine crew ivere in a posi tion to witness the accident. The boy lives at 1'227 DcUver Avenue wiib his mother, who has three rther children, the eldost being alMHit 1? years o!d.

Was the l (i alone entirely to blame for '.his? No. The statutes of this State contain no law which prohibits tres passirg on railroads. Then-fore, in the eves i.f the law, he cannot lie i ensured for any wror-g-doing. t'ifore we can place responsibility fi r this acciifent, we must have answ ers to the following questions: j Hail this boy ever been cautioned by I (parent, teacher, companion, neighbor or any other person on the danger be setting a trespasser on i-ailroad tracks? How many children have arrived at the age of understanding when 13 years old? We have all seen children playing "cars," and are aware of the delight the average child takes in playing with toy cars and engines. To attempt to emulate the actions of a switchman or hrakeman while handling trains, is a desire which proves well nigh ir resistible to the average boy. This is often done with an entire absence of thought of its hazards. Perhaps, if we were in possession of all the facts Contributing to this accident, we would hold Elsworth Friend quite blameless. However, this is but one of a large number of accidents which are hap pening on railroads throughout the United States annually. During the year ending June 30, 1915, there were G0?4 trespassers killed and 0448 in jured on railroads in this country. It seems almost incredible that in our present state of vaunted civiliza tion, such an appalling array of dis asters, consequent upon the operation of our railroads, could be possible. The common impression that most of those killed and injured are ho boes or tramns is erroneous. Most I of them are wage eaj-nors and child- ( ren. Accidents occur through indulg ence in the practice of taking a "short cut" across the yards or along the tracks, going to and from work, or on other errands, and, in the case of children playing in and about the yards and cars. ' The a-ailroad compauues, in an earn est endeavor to stop this awful slaugh ter, hnve erected warning signs for bidding trespassing; have cautioned their employes to exercise every pos sible care; have cautioned individuals hv nnrsomil interview and the ceneral -nnhlip tlirnnb -the .nrpss: mill have ! endeavored to have effective laws passed bv the legislatures making the practice a felony, the latter meet ing with failure in the majority of states, but the death toll continues ii- liminished. Legis'ation has been enacted to Tiro- tect the public from impure food, pro hibition is in force in many states; laws forbidding the sale of certain hr.bit-produeiiig drugs are on the sta tute books, ami many other laws for the protection of the public are in ef fect, but no steps are being taken to eliminate the annua! slaughter of tres passers on railways. The only possible 'benefit derived from any accident is the knowledge or experience gained whereby anotlie' may be prevented. Will the knowledge or exnorirr.ee gained from the necio-erit to Elsworth Friend resu't in preventing li!e iu'ci ilents in the f ntiire? MODERN WOODMEN OF AMER ICA La Grande Cam.

Its Rich, Sweet, Mellow Flavor Has Been Famous for a ' Generation MADE OF CHOICEST RED BURLEY The secret of tobacco satisfaction is known only to the man who chcus plug tobacco. The reason is that a good chew gets right next to your taste, while the leaf in flue; tobacco is in a state of fresh, juicy richness that is not possible in any other form of to bacco. There's no tobacco in the world that cm give you the hearty, wholesome flavor that you get from a delicious chew of Spear Head. Spear Head is made exclusively of ripe, red Kentucky Burley the most richly-rlavorcd chewing tobacco that grows. Still more, only the very choic est red Burley leaf is U5cd for Sticar Head. , Tliis choice leaf is selected with the most painstaking care, is stemmed by band, is thoroughly washed free of all foreign matter, and is pressed into Spear Head plugs so slowly that not a drop of juice or an atom of the nat ural flavor escapes. Try Spear Head, and you'll get a swett, mellow, luscious, satisfying chew that cannot be obtained in any other tobacco. In 10c cuts, wrapped in wax paper. DR. H. W.
