Broken Rail Cause of Wreck
Eight Babies Aboard the Train
Escape Without a Scratch Hard
Snow Breaks the Fall
BISMARK, X. D, Dec. 10. -The
wreck of the west-bound North
Coast Limited at Mackensie, 20
miles east of here, last night, may be
considered one of the most fortun
ate in the annals of railroading, ac-
cording to railroad men. The fact1
that almost an entire train, going at
the rate of 50 miles an hour, contain
ing more than 200 passengers, could
tarn over and go down a 10-foot
embankment without killing any
body is marvelous. ,
The train struck a broken rail.
The engine got over safely, but the
tender went off the track, followed
by the baggagecar and mailcar.. Their
eooplings broke and the three day
coaches, two sleepers and the obser
vation car went down the embank
tent into a deep snowdrift . and
turned over without breaking s coup-'
Eng. The hard-packed snow saved"
the train from destruction. j
Eight babies on the train were
ot even scratched. The most ser
iously injured are:
. Engineer Aaron Remley, Colgate,
JT, D., ribs broken.
Jured internally.
Mrs. . H. W. Cutlyfore, Seattle, 1
leg injured. . j
Rev. ,Mr. Loviolette, . Aberdeen, ,
hack injured by being pinned by a i
closed berth.
Besides these, many were cut by ;
broken glass and bruised. I
. A Seattle preacher -was thrown out '
of his berth in his nightshirt into
1 Effect of Fear est Wounds.
The fear of poison m a lacerated
wound under certain circumstances la
In Itself quite sufficient to give a
wounded man - tetanus, or lockjaw,
than which no more horrible complica
tion exists. Thus (or a long time It
was thought that the natives of the
Solomon and other neighboring Islands
used poisoned arrows, and many white
men shot by Ibeia died In tetanic con
vulsions. Including one very horrible
case of a commander in the navy who
bad made a special study of tetanus.
At length the French governor of
New Caledonia, noticing that the symp
toms exhibited were not consistent
with the use of any known poison, ap
pointed s medical commission to in
quire Into the affair, when It was dis
covered that the arrows of the natives
were not polsoued at all, although con
structed in such a way that a small
piece of the bone point aimost always
remained In the wound. The Irritation
produced by this prevented the wonnd
from beallug quickly, and the mental
disturbance produced by fear and per
haps change of climate did the rest
It was discovered st the same time
that the natives of other Islands srho
firmly believed la the poison theory
seldom suffered much Inconvenience
from the arrow wounds, because they
believed that the spells given tbem by
their own sorcerers prevented the poi
son from taking effect-Pall Mall Oa

His Vivid Imagination.
It was In Sunday school In the Infant
department The teacher had just told
the children something about the Holy
land and had sald:"Xow, children. let's
Just play we're taking's trip over that
very place. We step Into this little
ooat tied here at the shore, and away
we go. Now we are landing at the
very place where"
She was interrupted by the sobbing
and gasping of a small boy In the sec
ond row, whose Bister sought earnestly
to quiet and comfort him.
"What is the matter with Eddler
asked the teacher. .
"Please, teacher, he's feeling bad."
explained Eddie's sister. "It always
makes hlra sick to ride in a boat"

IVre Ijschaise Is the liirswi u)
quite the must Interesting of the Paris
cemeteries and natned after the Jesuit
confess of Louis XIV, whose coun
try seat occupied the site of the presviit
chnpel until the grouud was made a
cemetery In 14. It covers 110 acres
of grouud. Is picturesque, but quite un
lovely. Hare wrote about the touib
that "weight was their chief peculiar
lty and that all the mouumeuta looked
aa If each family bad tried to pile as
much marble as possible on to their
deceased relatives." .
Per Lachaise has a stormy history.
In 1814 toe Russia us fought the Freucb
there and gave them a beating. Dur
ing the commune the Versalllals Slid
Communards fought several pitched
battles among the tombstones and did
considerable damages But It la not
so much with the history of the ceme
tery aa with the people burled lu It
that we have to deal . ..A volume might
be filled wl'li the mere list of nil tit
ntou lovers in the world. The tuonu
incut was first erected (KIT years after
tlwir death, and brought to IVre la
chaise lu 1S1T from the iimsemn where
It u -A been during the revolution. Au

the actress; ItaUnc, Scribe, MU helot
and many other well kuowu folk He

Smith, Ixrd Seymour and other well
known KuKllshim'ii arc lo le found In
other portions of the cemetery, while
literature Is represented not only by
great authors, but by Isurques, the
victim of Duboec In (ho famous legal
lvoi.s Mull Imbroglio.
Put IVre lachaise has more romance
than In Its tombstones. Chatting one
day with one of the old soldiers who
are the keeier of this grim park, 1
learned some curious facts about It
Ve never have a dull moment" the
man said. "You may think that our
time here Is monotonous, but you are
quite wrong If you do so. To begin
with, there are the burglars. The
cemetery Is overrun with them. There
are three kinds of burglars. There
are the connoisseurs who often get
away with valuable prises, for you
