New York Central Train Collided With Freight on Side Track, Entire Train, With Exception of Pullman, Con- sumed by the Flames. Ra.•'tester, Dec. 24.—New York ('en• tral train No. 57, known as the Buf- ' fate local, a fast train running between ;New York and Buffalo, was wrecked ;near the pumping station, about a mile (oats of Palmyra, this afternoon at 2 o'clock, the engineer was fatally in- ljured, and the entire train, with the ex- ception of one 1'uilnuul, was burned to (the trucks. A local freight was taking water at the pumping .station on track No. 3 when suddenly another freight, also a pick-up, and on track No. 3 came in eight. Before it could be stopped it ran into the rear end of tho first pick-up knocking the caboose and a heavy coal car over on passenger trolls No. 2. The crew instantly started to flag the pass- enger train, which they knew to be due, but before they could hardly leave the train No. 57 hove in sight with two monster engines, making up a little lost time. Luckily for everyone on the pas- senger train, Engineer Harris, who was on the first engine had tints to put on the air, thus reducing the speed to quite an extent when the crash came, and the two engines struck the coal car land the damaged caboose. The caboose did not amount to much tin the path of the engines, but the heavy coal car threw both engines off the track rand after ploughing through the mud for quite a distance, they ;tipped over on their side ,and slipped !down the embankment. The baggage ear was thrown partly off the rails, but none of the other ears left the tracks. Every one in the passenger curs was badly shaken up, but no one was injur- ed, Engineer Harris, Of Rochester, who was in the first engino and who by sticking to his post, probably saved many lives, was dug out from under the wreckage, terribly injured. Dr. J. \1. Lae, a Rochester surgeon, and 1)r. Can- field, also of Rochester, were on the train, and they made the injured man as comfortable 119 possible, ili; wounds were carefully dressed and was taken to the tits hospital in Rochester. The two passenger engines were those of the New York C'entral's latest type, num- tiered 3.07'2 and 3,802. '.1'he wl•rekiiigcl'ew was immediately sent for but it was several hours before it arrived, and in the meantime several freight cars caught on fire and burned. The ca\press messenger had a narrow escape, for , When the crash crone he was hurled with several large bozos of express across the car, but he and tic crew did greet work in getting everything nut of the car before it took fire. The east and west -bound Empire State Express were sent over the West Shore Road from Lyons to Fairport, :and as track No, 3 wits the only one that could be used all the other fast trains used the \fest Shore tracks up to midnight. Not one of the passengers lost a sin- gle article of baggage and so fat' as could be learned not one was injured, although several were in such a state of excitement that they could hardly tell nnylhing nbont themselves.

London, Dec. 24,—Norwary's three- year-old Crown Prince, who with his Royal parents has returned to his home, has become extremely popular in Englnd, as indeed lie is every- where.

As the druggist has a permit to sett liquor, the fact of having made stiles 110 not sufficient evidence to convict hint of law'breakingr. If he observes any eau - tion whatever the chalices are that he \gitl prosper lung in his business without being convicted in the courts. For a long title the drug men who sold liquor did it cautiously. Moat of them re(tnired their customers to go through the form of filling out the legal formula, naming the malady for which the liquor wag needed. Some druggists maintain this rule even at the present day. The next step was to the store in which the prescription case and call for what they want without filling out the nffidavit, last of all came the drug store with a regular bar behind the pro• seriptinn ease and no drugs at all, There are probably n half-dozen or more drag stores in Topeka that have well-1(p;pointed bars, In all of these 7:t• ial)li3hments the system is the sane. The show w•inllows and the front part of the store present the appearance of the ordinary pharnulcy. The windows are filled with drug advertisements and the Rhelvcs bear the sante rotes of bottles that are found in other drug storos. 1'34!Inlly most of these bottles are dam• lilies filled with chalk or flour or col- ored !water. Toward the back of the room there is a prescription case that shuts off tho view of the rear part of the store, '1'110 patron goes behind this presct•iption case without. challcng3 and fl,ld1 himself itt a typical barroom, with mirrors and bot- tle; and polished bar and white•aproned attendant.

About a )ear ago the state' board of pharma(3y started a crusade against some of the drug stores int Topeka for selling medicines without having a reg- istered pharmacist employed.

FIGHTING THE HEREROS. German Officers in Africa Picked Off by the Native Marksmen. Some oddities of campaigning against the llcrerns in Germnn Southwest Africa are detailed by Col, Bayer of the general staff in some sketches which he has been publishing from his personal experiences in the field. One point that particularly impressed hint was the readiness with which the ITereros and llottontots sing- led out the officers at long range. "It wouldn't have been strange," said he, "if we had worn brilliant uniforms, sashes or other insignia of rank. But we didn't. Tn the presence of the enemy we used exactly the same uniform and equipment ns our trnops—suits of khaki and cork helmets, with blue border. \Ve carried no swords. "Every officer carried a rifle and a cartridge belt with 120 rounds of am- munition in it ,exnctly like the men. Many of us also wore bayonets. I-Iands, feces, heir, uniforms, trenpons, every- thing came to be of the snme earthy col- or, \Ve often couldn't recognize one an- other and all sorts of funny blunders took place. "in spite of this outward similarity the natives seemed never at a loss to pick out the officers. Their extraordin• my power of \vision ennbled them to de- tect the slightest sign—n gesture of the hand to control the advance of the fir- ing, line, the use of a field glass, the re- ception of n report wns enough to in- dicate rnnk. "In one case I remember. an officer addressed by his superior turned to hien and instinctively raised his hand to his helmet in salute. Tnstnntly the fire of the natives WAS concentrated on them and the superior wns killed." FOR. ALL HUMOURS Eaerne, Salt Rheum, Pustule:, etc.—no remedy scab more quickly than Mira Ointment.

Mack, speaks volumes for the value of this remedy. Mr. Mack became interc,tcd some time ago in this Compound -- and he was so thoroughly convinced by the astonishing results accom- plished by it, that he joined Dr. Mack in marketing the compound. This is what Mr. C. W. Mack says: "1 back the following by my business reputation.

(Christian Guau'din(1,) Such wits the title applied to the Alas- tes of lien himself in un addre+ss deliv- ered not long since before a large as- sembly of working tutu in one of the cities of the United States. The title torts used in an altogether reverent way we aro led to understand and we also n►'e told that several tinges during the address the inentioi of the name of Christ was received with cheers and even prolonged applause. The incident made a deep impression upon us as we read it. it told us many things and pr,e-eminently this one, that if the Christ can be really brought face to face with the average man lie must sncc(v'd in winning his applttval, if not His devotion and Iris life. And that Purely is the one thing that the church has to do- to present Jesus in such a way to ever Ulan that each will see and recognize in 1'i,,, the one for himself. eimb0l''4 Clomp; )11)), (1111 we say ? \'''n, the champion CI ev(n•y incur \v'Ib rt Cassa that has 111 it anything of righlernr,ne.ss or of justice, no matter how his 0850 may stand before the world or in the eves of any other. That is the doctrine the church must preach and must live if she is 1') win book these nnlont the toilers who are 110w 0111Side bier influence and control. The social question is fundamentally moral and a religious' one, which is only saying that it must be solved in the light of the teaching and under the gui- dance of the spirit of the Matt of Naz- areth. Somehow we have got to get Ilio up against it, or rather up against the men who make the problem, whether they represent eapital or labor. That, is not only the mast effective way, 11 s the only way in the cad there may bo many answers to the social questions which are today perplexing men, but they y all mast be religious, that; is, they } all must stand in a definite relation to Jesus Christ. And men outside the church are coming to realize this tt.s they nover did before. The profound respect shown by til!: audience of workingman for the non;^ Ff Christ is a hopeful sign. I -f the church really represents Christ, and can make the people understand that she stands for Trim. that she represents the great spirit, of democracy that revealed itself in ills life, then she ought to have little difficulty in winning the peo- ple for Trim. But if she fnil in her re- presentation of Christ, then must she fail most signally and irretrievnhly, And it would lw an awful thing if Christ should be maligned and mtsrepre€ented In the house of his friends, „N .
