The poles and telegraph" line along the roadside were wrecked, and this city was cut off from communication with the out side world for hours. The trains In collision were the Cana dian Pacific Railway express from Mon treal and Boston for Halifax, and a fast freight from Halifax for Montreal. The conductor and driver of the freight had orders to take the siding at Windsor Junction and let the express cross, but. for some unknown reason. Driver Cope land, of the freight, ran past the Junction on the main line and met the express two miles beyond. It is thought that Copeland may have lost control of his train, which was made up of 75 cars. The freight was running 23 miles an hour, and the express, which was two hours late, was traveling about 4 miles an hour. Both trains were hauled by new and powerful locomotives, and they crashed together on a level piece of road skirting a lake.

The locomotives locked together and remained on the track. The postal and baggage cars went over the embankment down Into the lake. Two railroad mall clerks In the postal car were shaken up. Their car landed right side up and began to fill with water, but they escaped by climb ing through a window In the roof and wading ashore. The men In the baggage and express car had a like experience. Driver Wall, of the express, was caught In the mass of twisted Iron and scalded to death by escaping steam. Fireman Oak ley was thrown, or jumped from the cab and was drowned In the lake, where his body was found In 6 feet of water. Fire man Hill was burned to death.

Cheerful Outlook on the London Market Effect of Merger llullnc. LONDON, April 12. While business lasted, the atmosphere of the stock mar ket last week was decidedly more cheer ful, and it Is pointed out that the fact, notwithstanding the disturbing reports from the Balkans, that the public is de manding all the best Investment stocks Is an Indication of better times after Easter. The Improvement In consols was reflected In the other leading securities, borne rails showing especial strength. Americans also strengthened last Thurs day and showed general advance. The decision In the case of the Northern Securities Company came too late to have an effect on the market here, though some apprehension existed regarding the situation when business Is resumed next Thursday. The writers In the financial papers, however, do not predict any serf ous fall. If any. in view of the fact that. while the decision Is Important, it Is not final, and does not affect the statistical position of the roads Involved. Iron Frieda Recover. BERLIN. April 12.

Is the bead of an American school on Ponape. cyi which Island the native students from Ruk are imprisoned, says that she can not understand the report of trouble at Kuk. Mrs. Potter says: "lly sister write ma often, and she states that the German Governor of the Island Is very friendly to the missionaries. There has been some talk, of the with drawal of the American missionaries, and the German government declared that no English missionaries should ever fill their places, so It may be that they intend t,o banish missionaries entirely." MISS GAUSE MAKES REPLY To Qneatlona of University of Ore gon Historical Society. NEWBERG. Or.."" April 12. Miss Lucy M. Cause, who won second prize In the contest In which E. A. Smith, of MeMlnn ville. took first place with his alleged plagiarized oration, in answer to queries propounded to her by the Historical So ciety of the University of Oregon, sub mits the following: I desire to make the following state ments in answer to the inquiries made by the Eugene Historical Society: First Madison did defend the Consti tution before the Virginia convention, but so did John Marshall. The part taken by Marshall in the debate can be found in almost any historical work. George IL Williams, In his address delivered at Salem on John Marshall day. February 4. lira, said: "Marshall confronted Henry upon all these points with great power and success, and the convention ratified the Constitution by a majority of ten votes. It is Impossible to speak too high ly of the services of Marshall In this convention." Second Plnckney is supposed to have been the originator of the phrase. "Mil lions for defense, but not one cent for tribute." That phrase is an epitome of the answer given to France by the Ameri can Commission. I did not mean to as sert that John Marshall was the origin ator of the phrase, but referred figura tively to his active work on the commis sion that answered France to that effect. Third The statement that John Marsh all was the first Chief Justice Is a mis take, which I am glad to have-corrected. I first wrote the sentence "was made one of the first Chief Justices." and in the hurry of remodeling the oration In the two or three days allowed after the local contest, the sentence was changed Inad vertently to read, "was made the first Chief Justice."

FROM SERVANTS' RULE. How a Western Womnn In London Wonld Solve a Great Problem. London Mall. A bright American woman has come from California to solve London's great, servant problem. Miss G. Stewart Is a young university graduate, and her cam paign opens with a lecture nt the Wom en's institute. tZ Victoria, street, Mon day .afternoon. "Her solution is a sweeping one that English women should follow the West ern model" and do their own worle. "In California It is the common thing for per sons of good standing to do their own housework," she said In a conversation yesterday afternoon. "Life Is less com plicated there In many ways, and tasks that here are wearying are there made easy by simpler house construction and. by labor-saving appliance. "The American housewife who does her own work is .by no means a domestic slave. Jt is true that she cannot, like so many Englishwomen, spend her mornings reading the" newspapers. Her day com mences earlier, as it is customary to have breakfast between 7:30 and 8:30. During the morning she works and work does her good. Her domestic tasks are done easily, quickly and thoroughly. "How does your aervantlcss wife man age for boot-cleaning, kslte-cleanlng. washing up, blacking grates .and answer ing tbe door.?" Miss Stewart was asked. She had her answers ready. "The Amer ican man and woman wear the rubbers (goloshes) when it te wet, and these are easily washed. The woman cleans her boots with 'liquid blacking, which Is far less labor than the old paste blacking. It English people wore rubbers they would be saved much rheumatism. "Knife cleaning Is not necessary, be cause electro-plated knives are universally used. Our grate Is a small cradle in a tiled hearth, when the rooms are not heated by steam. "Washing dishes Is, I admit, one of tbe things that must so far be done in the old-fashioned way: but in American houses the handling of the dishes Is not to perious a matter. There It is usual for the, kitchen to adjoin the dining-room and for the two to be connected by a slid ing panel. "But even In washing up we have some things to save labor. The enamelled saucepan Is in general use. and is easy to clean. A wooden handle with a bunch of armor chain at the end Is used for scouring. We use earthenware pans gen erally for stews, and serve up In them. "As to answering the door." Miss Stew art continued, "why should you not answer your own door? What is there derogatory in It? There is something In credible In the notion that you demean yourself by opening the door to a caller." Paris Police After Asanmptlonlata. PARIS, April 12.

GOOD OLD SLAVES AND DAYS "Falthfnl Cnto Death'' Incidents Told by New York People. New York- Sun. The discussion about' the condition ot the neero la reviving many pleasant recol lections among the people. wh knew th negro as no one In the North ever knew him or ever could know him. In the home of a Southern family living In New York is. a' room on one wall of which hang Use portraits of three genera tions. On the opposite wall hang tht por trait! of some ot tbe family's old slaves and their children. There is a nortralt of the head of the family, a physician, who went to Cali fornia In the first year of the gold fever. The portrait opposite la that ot his body servant who went with him. The' trip was made overland. The physi cian prospered. Then he sickened and died among strange people and was burled by bio faithful servant, who, having attended to the last rites, took the wealth of his master and returned by a long and cir cuitous route, going by way ot Cape Horn. thence to New York, and thence to the home of his widowed mistress. 2000 miles from here, and laid at her feet the wealth his master had accumulated. Tbe story of this faithful servant ap peared In the Sun two years ago. It was told In that story how the mistress died a year later, and how the old servant nursed bee when she had cholera, when no one else was there to minister to her wants, an her family having been quarantined. The next day th6 old slave died, and he and hla mistress were burled side by side. There the story printed In the Sun ended. The third generation ot that old physi cian's' family have since then moved to New York. What followed the death ot the mistress and her salve Is now printed with the permission ot the family In this city. The family of the old physician consist ed ot four Children two boys, two girls, and the negro "mammy." wife ot the faithful body servant of the 'doctor who died In California. She had three children. The family removed to Tennessee. The Civil War found them on one plantation. One of the oons. who had become a physi cian, enlisted In the army of General Leonidas Polk, the fighting bishop of the Confederacy. The other was a chaplain. Each was accompanied by a son ot the old "mammy." The physician and the chaplain died before the war was over. Their body servants returned to Tennes see, where the sisters of the dead Con federates were still living with the old "mammy" and her daughter, although they might have come 'North. The sisters of the dead Confederates were married and each had children. When the war was over the married sisters were dead: the old negro "mammy" was dead. They were buried in the same family lot In a Tennessee cemetery. When the children of the sisters c-rew up, they married. The three children of the old negrj "mammy" lived with them through the days of reconstruction, and married. More than once these children of former slaves were forced to leave the old home by people who thcugbt they knew more about the happiness and welfare of the negroes than the negroes themselves. But as often as they were forced to go away, as often did they return to "them chlllun." These negroes Anally died on the old plan tation and their bodies are burled in the family lot In the Tennessee cemetery They left chlldrer. The children of the sisters who were the -daughters of the old physician and his wife came tc New York, and are the beads of two families living beneath the same root. Their servants, are the .children of the children of, the old nam "mammv" whose faithful husband went to California with "Mars John." There la a retired merchant in New York who was .raised by a negro "mammy." An estrangement separated him from his mother. It was a sad af fair. The mother, bereft of nearly all she possessed from her hueband.. retired to a farm. Her old servant, the "mammy" of her boy. had gone away to another state and had accumulated 'what to her was a small fortune. She returned to her "ole missus" and remained with her until the latterla death. A few weeks before the death, the old negro "mammy" hunted up the son. her young master, and, through her, a recon ciliation was effected. The son was at the bedside of his mother In her last, days, thanks to the old negro "mammy." The property of the mother was given to the old "mammy" and there she lived until she died and her young master buried her beside his mother. The prop erty was sold and the money was sent to a school which is educating .negroes. "There must have been something." said this retired merchant, referring to the in cident described, and others that were mentioned. 'In the conditions between master and servant that was higher and better and nobler than the people of the South have had credit tor'. And while God knows, I have no grtves that I would open, nor would I lift a finger to put the negro back where he was. I cannot help' thinking that the day when social equality was dangled before him was a black one for hla race." THE ARK IS AFLOAT. 31 ra. Lillian White's Houseboat for Art School lias Decn Launched.
