To Write Orders.
Railroad Commissioners Glasgow,
Dickinson and Scully decided Friday
afternoon, afier examining Into tfie
causes of the Ypsi-Ann wreck that, a
meeting of interurban traction companies in this state will be called for
the purpose of devising a better dis
patching system.
'Tt Seems to me that the train dis^
patching system should be applied to
interurban lines," said Commissioner
jJickin3on. "Considerable use. could
be made of the block signal devices.
But weViall give the interested parties a hearing. It may be that they
can convince the commission that, the
system now used by the D. TJ. R-. is
better.
"With my many years of train experience, I feel satisfied that written
orders arg the only safe method. The
man in Charge of a car should have
more than his memory, lo depend on.
Xhe Ypsi-Ann accidont was due to the
motorman going past the meeting
place. Every means should be used
to prevent a recurrence of this.
"The purpose of the meeting was to
learn what charges should be made in
the dispatching and signal systems of
the interurban lines. It has »ot been
decided when the interurban companies will be asked to meet.1'—Chelsea Standard-Herald.
Through Service.
It was stated sometime ago that the
Michigan Central was about to establish a through train service between
Detroit and Indianapolis. If this is
done, we presume that the trains, will
pass through here, for we know of no
shorter route than -via the Hillsdale
branch and the various lines between
the tro cities are owned by practically
the same people.—Manchester Enterprise.
An Unique Monument.
The Pioneer society of Tecumseh,
have discovered a very interesting
relic on the farm of Wm. Eccle?. It is
a large boulder which the first settlers
found in 1824. They were looking for
a mill stone while they had the first
grist mill under construction, and
tried to split "off a piece from the
boUlder for tbat purpose, but they
found one more easily handled and
iibandoned that one. The iron wedge
and drill holes are still in the stone,
"just as it was left by Brown, Evans t&
Co., S4 years ago. It is this boulder
'the society propose to move to the new
parkin Tecumseh and mark and dedicate to the first white settlers, June 1.

It Reached The Spot.
Mr. E. Humphrey, who owns'a large
general store at Omega, O., and is
president of the Adams County Telephone Co., as well as of the Home
Telephone Co., of Pike County, O.,
says of Dr. King's New Discovery:

freak Of Nature.
'A. freak of nature in the form oi a
double headed lamb was discovered by
Dan Fiynn of this place when he went
into his sheep pen Monday morning.
The ewe had given birth tc twin lambs
one ot them bearing two psrfectly
formed heads and when Mr. Flynti
entered tho pen the lamb" began lo
bleat with both mouths. The mother
ewe refused to own his offspring and
kept her distance and before the freak
oould ha provided vvith proper nourishment it died. An examination disclosed that all of the organs were pet-
fectly formed.—Morriee cor. Xiivings.--

Bad Air "Breath of Death." .
.. "Foul air from improper ventilation
is the breath of death in any great
city. While poor food is causing one
death improper ventilation is reaping
a harvest of 1,000 lives. Nor is this
ratio confined to the slums."  * .
In these words W. A. Evans of Chicago, commissioner of health, expressed his belief that the atmosphere
of many houses" is charged with a
more deadly poison than impure food.
"In strict figures consumption and
pneumonia have the greatest deatli
rates in our city, in almost every
case of these diseases the primary
cause is the breathing of foul air," lie
said.
It Was "Pie Plant."
One of our prominent business men
vyas driving through the country the
other day and discovered what he
thought vfa,s a pie-plant growing near
a vacfttitj farffl house. He produced 11
spade and sepuj.'ed a number of fine
roots and was presenting them t) his
friends about $he town after he had
set out a good supply himself. You
can judge of his surprisp. when one of
his neighbors informed him that "the
roots were burdook and not. pie-plant.

Washingtonians Not Curious.
Very often in Washington during the
season there are elaborate weddings at
the fashionable churcbes. In other
cities, New* Tork, for example, squads
of police bave been detailed to keep
back the curious women who huddle
in front of tlie churches when these
notable weddings are scheduled, for
the purpose of catching a view of the
bride's and bridesmaids' raiment
• Washington women don't go* near
the churches at such times. There is
never any bother "ttrith crowds infront
of tke churches. When the "bride and
her women are in the very act of stepping from their carriages * at a big
wedding even the darkies onthe streei
scarcely pause to bave a look,.
* l\ isn't that rubbering is one of the
seven deadly sins in*that town* any
niore than it is anywhere else. They
"simply don't care in Washington;
that's "all. .-
