Wreck on Fire.
Litchfield, 111., July 3— The Chi­
cago Limited on the Wabash Rail­
road, due in S t Louis st 7 p. m., a
half hour late and running 50 miles
an hour, was wrecked tonight inside
the city limits. The engine ran in­
side an open Bwitch and struck a
freight train on a siding. The en­
gine aud the first three coaches were
piled in a heap across the track,
caught fire and were consumed.
It is believed that 20 persons
perished in these coaches and that
40 were injured. Three of the in­
jured have since died.
The last
car on the train, a special from Wis-
cousin, was pushed back and saved.
Nearly all the passengers were
bound for St. Louis, and many of
them were delegates to the Demo­
cratic National Convention.
I. R. Mills, one of the dead, was
Internal Revenue Collector at De­
catur, 111., and a prominent Repub­
lican.

Buy Horses in America.
New York, July 4,— The Japanese
government is stated to have prac­
tically placed an order for 10,000
selected cavalry horses with a New
York firm which supplied many
cavalry horses to Great Britain dur­
ing the Boer War. It is understood
that the order calls for the smallest
type of cavalry horse, of which a
large supply is not readily obtain­
able. It is insisted by the Japanese
that the horses shall be delivered at
the rate of 2,000 a month to trans­
ports on the Pacific Coast.

Practical Philosophy.
Note and Comment
Collier's Weekly, commenting ed­
itorially on the lessons we may learn
from the eventful history now mak­
ing in the Orient, calls attention to
the practical character of Japanese
philosophy pertaining to the com­
mon affairs of life, and especially
such as have to do with physical
sustenance and development. The
burden of thought in this connec­
tion of National diet and hygiene, a
subject in which Europeans aud
Americans have of late years be­
come much concerned.
With the
latter people, however, this physico-
philosophy of liviDg has advanced
in its geneial effect hut little be­
yond the speculative stage; while
with the people of Japan it has
aged to the measure of common use.
Regularity and simplicity of diet;
cleanliness and plenty of exercise
taken ìd the aggregate, are, with us,
things that the doctors talk about
rather than the things we practice.
Not so with the Little Brown Man,
they are among his National habits.
As intimated by the writer in
Collier’s, it is intimated, it is not
necessarily a mooted question if we
should abandon meat* foods and be-
oome vegetarians, as are the Japan­
ese; but from them we may learn
that nutrition and not mere pleas­
ing of the palate is to be viewed as
she essential gastronomical consid­
eration. A people physically strong
may easily become nationally wise,
is an axiom that is now being dem­
onstrated in Japan’s conduct of an
armed conflict—end further in the
entire readiness with which she
adapts herself to the higher require­
ments of a civilization she is just
exploiting. In this respect the in­
habitant of the Island Kingdom is
the tutor and not the pupil. His
philosophy is of a maternal char­
acter, but very practical, and not
altogether unpromising of future
supremacy unless it shall be care­
fully studied and adopted by others.

An Orphan Defined.
The word “ orphan” occurred in
the Sunday school lesson.
Miss
Ida V. Stamps asked if any of the
little boys in the class knew what
an orphan was.
There was no re­
sponse. Thinking to help the littlg
fellows search out the right answer,
Miss Stamps, the teacher, said:
“ Why, children, I’m an orphan;
now can’t you tell me what an or­
phan is?”
Up went the baud of a little boy.
“ All right, Johnnie,” said the
teacher, “ that’s a good boy. You
tell us what an orphan is.”
“An orphan,” roplied the little
fellow, without the slightest hint of
a smile and with deep earnestness,
“ an orphan is a young lady what
wants to get married and can’t.”—
Silas Xavier Floyd, in July Lippin-
cott’s.

How 3^-u.cTi H’artlier
Ex-Mayor Van Wyck of New York
City, ignoring his political alli­
ances, has gone to spend a few
months in Europe. He has had a
remarkable streak of luck in Wall
Street, and is $2,200,000 richer
than he was six months ago.
A man named Netcber, a Chicago
storekeeper, got bis life insured
last December for ¿500,000, and
now he is dead.
It is wonderful
how lucky some men are. He only
paid one premium, of $19,940, and
in six months he received half a
million cash.
Among the things being studied
very earnestly now by promoters
and economists is the petroleum-
fuel problem.
It seems probable
that it will be solved in a year or
two with such tremendous saving
on steamships and locomotives as
will amount to a commercial revo­
lution.
Iieeds, England, operates the
street railroads under municipal
law. The fares are two cents and
four cents (on different’ kinds of
cars.) The net profit last year was
a quarter of tbr entire ¡Tlcome, or
$416,000. The city also does its
own electric lighting at one-third
of the former expense.
A crusade has been begun in
Washington by an earnest old gen­
tleman name^l Dr. Fell. It has for
its object the obolition of blinders
and overdraw check rein on horses.
He pleads with strangers on the
street and in many instances induces
them to release their horses from
all restraints compatible with safe­
ty.
Trusts in this country are declin­
ing in i umber and power. In 1901
the total amounted to $3,700,000,-
000. In 1902 the total was $2,600,-
000,000. In 1903 it was $1,650,.
000,000, and in the first fije
months of the present year the ag­
gregate was only $403,000,000.
The trust bugbear is Evidently be­
coming less terrible.
Dr. Emil Reich, a German, has
written up American women in a
British magazine. He has discov­
