i
IMPACT WAS TERRIFIC1
Victims Were Engineers Atkinson '
and Hamilton and Firemen Gen- i

Faithful W. & A. Employes.
Jn a frightful head-on collision between
freight trains on the Western
and Atlantic road at 2:45 o'clock Monday
morning ,at King's bridge passing,
just five miles from Chattanooga,
Tenn., the engineers and the firemen
of both trains met instant death.

.yet been ascertained, and will probably
remain unknown until tbe road
completes an investigation, which was
begun Monday.
<
The dead are: W. P. Hamilton, engineer
of freight train No. 8; R. H.
Atkinson, engineer on freight train
Ko. 13; Oliver A Gentry, fireman on
"No. 13, and H. F. Pinson, fireman on
&o. 8.
In addition to the killed, four men
were slightly injured. Immediately af"ter
the accident fire broke out,
which burned the body of Engineer
Atkinson, and also burned,up one oar
loaded with cattle.
No. 13 was southbound for Atlanta,
while the other engine was northbound.
The two trains had approachrorr
nftar to the Dassing point
when the accident occurred. Just
exactly how it happened is unknown.
No. 13 was to have taken the switch,
T)ut apparently failed to do so, and
the real reason why the two engines
' smashed into each other may never
he known, as both engineers and firemen
are now beyond the power of an
earthly investigation.
After the collision the freight cars
on No. 13 caught fire, and as there
was no way of stopping the blaze
they burned until the fire was satiated,
eight cars being destroyed. In
addition to these eight freight cars
on No. 13, four cars on No. 8 were
very badly damaged in the collision.
Three of the men killed, Atkinson,
Hamilton and Gentry, were residents
of Atlanta. Pinson was a resident of
Ellijay, Ga.
OR. H. Atkinson was 43 years of
fitra onrt had heen connected with the

railroad for the past nineteen years,
and during that term of service had
jnade a most enviable record, never
liaving had an accident of any con
sequence to take place. He leaves a
wife and six children.
W. P. Hamilton, aged 44 years, had
*>een in the employ of the Western
and Atlantic for the past twenty
years and was one of the most competent
and faithful engineers of the
road. He leaves a wife and two children.
Oliver A. Gentry was 36 years of
age, and leaves a wife and three chilx
?dren. The unfortunate man jumped
in an attempt to save his life, but

'BRYAN STANDS READY
! To Answer Call of Democracy, But
| Will Not Work for the Nomination?Writes
Ex-Senator Jones.

j A Washington dispatch says: Former
United States Senator James K.
I Jones cf Arkansas, who was chairman
of the democratic national committee
when W. J. Bryan made his campaigns
for the presidency In 1896
and 1900, has received a letter from
Mr. Bryan in which he announces
that he will accept the nomination
for president for the third time if it
is tendered to him. The letter is
dated June 18 at Stockholm, and is
as follows:
"I have been watching political developments
and have noted with gratification
the Vindication of democratic
principles. You have correctly stated
my position. As I wrote to Colonel
Wetmore, I shall do nothing to secure
another nomination and do not
want one unless the conditions seem
to demand it I may add that I enjoy
the freedom of private life and feel
that I can do some good without
holding any office.
"There are, however, certain reforms
which I would like very much
to see accomplished, and to assist
in the accomplishment of these reforms
I am willing to become the
party candidate again, If, when the
time for the nomination arrives, the
advocates of reform are in control
of the party, and think that my candidacy
will give the best assurance
of victory. If some one else seems
more available, I shall be even better
pleased.
"I need not assure you that I am
more interested in seeing our principles
triumphant than I ahi in the
personnel of the ticket. The country
needs to have JefferSonian democracy
applied to all of the departments of
the government, state and national,
and I am content to help make this
application. Yours truly,
"W. J. BRYAN."
NO TIDINGS FROM PEARY.
Feaf1 Expressed That Explorer Has
Perished In Arctic Ocean.
That Captain Robert E. Peary has
sacrificed his life in the effort to
discover the north pole is the fear
of naval men in Washington who are
worried by the failure to get any
tidings of the ship Roosevelt, which
sailed for the arctic regions July 16,
1903.
Advices from the American Geographical
Society add to their fears.
Reports are that the weather in the
far north this spring and early summer
was more than usually rigorous
?that severe storms have been frequent
and that the ice is heavy. Consequently,
it is feared that Peary's
ship may have been ground to pieces
by tne arming noes.
The explorer's plans, when he left
last summer, were to proceed to the
farthest possible point of landing
north of Cape Sabine and within 500
miles of the pole. There he was to
establish a winter base and make all
preparations for a dash across the Ice
this summer as soon as weather conditions
would permit. This he expected
would not occupy more than six
weeks, and according to his calculations
he would reach home not later
than October oT this year. Esqulmos
and dogs, it is supposed, were taken
aboard the Roosevelt last summer,
for it is on the hardy inhabitants
of the polar regions that Peary always
relied. It was thought, however, that
a whaling vessel might bring somo
tidings of the Roosevelt, and the failure
of any news of the expedition to
reach the outside world for so many
months is arousing the keenest anxiety.

! THE "WORSTED CHURCH"
.
NEW HAMPSHIRE'S UNIQUE EDIFICE
DECORATED 3Y WOI
MAN PASTOR.
The Rev. Mrs. Monmouth Found the
Church Bare of All Ornament and
Without an Organ?Use She Made
of Worsted and Paper?Mecca for
| Sightseers.
Probably the most unique church to
be found anywhere in New Hampshire
and probably in the New England
states is the little union house of worship
in Eact Canterbury, some six
miles from Canterbury Centre and 10
miles from the nearest railroad, writes
the Canterbury correspondent of the
Boston Herald. The little church,
which is known throughout New
Hampshire as the "Worsted" church
has been the home of the Congregational
and Methodist societies since
1839, the year in which the building
was erected.
The unique feature of this meetinghouse
is its interior, which is decorated
wholly with worsted and paper,
but considerably more worsted than
paper, and it was on this account that
the edifice received its name, the
"Worsted" church. While this place
of worship is in a secluded part of the
town, to which access is gained only
by walking or driving over 10 miles of
country roads from the Canterbury station
of the Boston & Maine railroad,
the church register shows that hundreds
of visitors are shown through
the church every year and especially
during the summer season by Frank
Brown of East Canterbury, who is custodian
of the little edifice. The residents
of the town frequently visit the
place, and are regular attendants at
every Sunday service which is held
during the summer season, when it is
rvrtooiVvIa eaoura o r>1 orp-vmfln to fill
J/WOIUIC ?,V
the pulpit. To the natives and more
especially to those who are members
of the church, Methodists or Congregationalisms,
the place is the pride of
the town. The people of Canterbury
swore by the decorator, who was also
the preacher, and she was Mrs. Sarah
Elizabeth Monmouth.
To all Canterbury and the surrounding
country Mrs. Monmouth was a.redeemer.
She was always sought in
case of trouble and her advice was
final. When any of the good Christian
people were ill and feared they were
going to die they had to see Mrs. Monmouth
and a few comforting words
from her had a better effect than much
of the medicine prescribed by the village
doctor or by his wife in his absence.
The preacher held the esteem
of every man, woman and child in the
village and she respected thm.
Mrs. Monmouth, who was pastor of
the church, died nearly 20 years ago,
after administering to the spiritual
wants of the people .of Canterbury for
more than 10 years. Her death was
due to overwork in striving to do
what was almost impossible in the little
church, where she preached, lived,
slept, cooked and ate. While she had
a comfortable little home in Canterbury
Centre, sime six miles away, she
? ~ ~ fn hfl noor hor TkPOnlP
was LLTLT ailAIUUO t.v uv, MVU. ?v. r r ,
and on that account she made her
home as near to them as possible, and
found that the church was the best
place she could be found day or night.
Her principal services were on the
Sabbath, when she held one in the
morning and another in the evening,
with Sunday school at'the noon hour.
During the week, too, she had prayer
services, and although many of her
congregation lived miles away, they
never found it inconvenient to attend
and listen to her advice to men and
women.
Mrs. Monmouth was not an ordained
preacher, nor did she have a license;
but she took the place of the regular
pastor one Sunday during his absence
and made such an impression
upon the congregation that a committee
of the churchmen waited upon her
and asked her to fill the pulpit regularly.
She consented to do so, and
in less than a month she was the
regular preacher. When Mrs. Monmouth
assumed charge the interior
of the church was without decorations
of any kind. There was not a picture
on the walls, and, in fact there was
nothing but the pulpit and pews. The
Sunday services consisted of a serman
by the pastor, and occasionally
X1? ? A offamnf Ia cir?<r a
me ijieui uei a vvuuiu aiicui^1' ??? & ?
psalm without the aid of an organ or
piano. While the preacher was a good
pastor, he had a small congregation
and saw no prospects for enlarging
it.
When the new preacher assumed
charge she purchased an organ and
installed it in the choir gallery, and
in the cjioir loft she placed a little motto,
"Give thanks and sing," which she
worked out in worsted in brackenburg.
This was the first of a series
of worsted needlework, and from that
day for nearly 10 years, or almost during
the entire time of her pastorate,
she worked daily upon something or
other of worsted which she used to
decorate the interior of the little meeting
house. Several of the quotations
which she worked out in worsted and
framed in the same material before
hanging on the walls were very appropriate,
the members of the church
say, and among them were, "(Jet wisdom.
God loveth a cheerful giver,"
which was hung over the poor-box;
"Enter betimes the open door," which
was in a conspicuous place in the vestibule,
and another, "Work while the
day lasts. The night cometh wherein
none can work," hangs on the wall,
where no one can fail to see it. Over
the pulpit is probably th^ most elaborate
which she worked out in a
frame. This reads; "Ye are come unto
Mt. Zion and to the city of the living
God, the heavenly Jerusalem and
~ < *" " V.; 'v.
to an innumerable company of angels,
to the general assembly and church
of the first born which are written in
heaven and to God, the judge of all,
and to the spirits of just men made
perfect, and to Jesus, the meditator
of the new covenant, and to the blood
of sprinkling which speaketh better
things than that of Abel."
The decorations include draperies,
streamers of worsted and paper suspended
from the walls and ceiling with
festoons of the same material where
the streamers meet. "Window shades,
table covers and a thousand and one
other things about the interior of the
little edifice are of worsted, and those
who were very intimate with the
preacher say that she used thousands
of yards of the material to do the
work, and what was more, she purchased
it out of her salary, expending
every cent in that direction.
The work throughout is artistic and
the many colored shades of worsted
are blended together with the greatest
nrvMirapv Tho host matprinl was
used, and much of the work is of such
an excellent design that the* pastor
was acknowledged as an artist after
she completed it. Worsted flowers,
white calla lilies, roses, Mayflowers,
and almost every flower in worsted
adorn the pulpit and a circular arch
which extends over it. While these
decorations have been in the church
for more than a quarter of a century
they are Ln almost the same condition
today as they were when they were
first put up. While the pastor was
alive, she personally took care of the
decorations and kept them clean, and
her example was followed by the members
of the church after her death.
During the whole time Mrs. Monmouth
was engaged in the decorating,
and that was almost the whole time
she was pastor, she made her home in
the choir* loft and she would give it
up Sunday to the choir singers. Although
she was recognized as a good
preacher and a most attractive pastor,
she was also considered very eccentric
and the idea of decorating a church
wim worsted was one 01 ner greatest
eccentricities. As a preacher she followed
the style of Henry Ward Beecher
and very frequently memorized his
sermons and delivered them to her
congregation. While her regular congregation
never numbered more than
50 she was always favored with a large
audience of townspeople, and in the
summer by vacationists. The seating
capacity, which is 200, was very frequently
taxed to its utmost capacity.
After her death the Union Society of
Methodists and Congregationalists was
unable to secure a pastor, and only
during the summer months services
are held. At all times during the year |
the church is open to the public, and if
there is anything that Sexton Brown
likes it is to show visitors through the
old edifice.
Another eccentricity the pastor possessed
was her fad upon economy, and !
while she was worth thousands of dollars,
she boasted that she lived on 10
cents a day and had all she wanted to
eat for that money. She was so
anxious to have her friends follow her i
example that she wrote a book upon
the question and distributed them
among her friends; but they took such
little interest In. that part of her
preaching that there is not one of the
books to be found today in Canterbury.
She died January 16, 1887, at
the age of 59. at the home of a relative
in London.
TURKEY WITH WOODEN LEG.
Big Bird Killed In Virginia?Superstitions
of Long Shore Hunters.
In most communities there are certain
persons who possess peculiar characteristics,
habits and beliefs, and this
is true of the 'long shore sportsman of
the old Mother State as of persons
dwelling elsewhere.
Many of the o}d time sportsmen still
carry and use their muzzle loading
guns, which cannot be displaced by
more modern arms. They usually
manage to bag a good many birds
and other game, and this is chiefly due,
it is believed to their knowledge of
the habits of the game. They seldom
go out without finding something.
A story is told of one gunner who
if any of the shot should fall from his
hands while loading his gun will at
once return home and make no further
effort to hunt that day, believing, as he
says, that those lost were his luck
shot, and it would be useless for him
to continue the hunt.
Another, whom I will call here Capt.
Pete, is a sailor and all round yachtsman.
He loves to tell of his adventurs
with his dogs and gun, and is sel

On the occasion of a turkey hunt near
the Rappahannock River Capt. Pete
claims to have shot a forty pound wild
turkey, for which he was offered $4
cash. The gray whiskers on the turkey's
breast were eighteen inches long
and he. had one wooden leg. Here
Capt. Pete gives a laugh that could be
heard a half mile away. "Sar, he was
the biggest turkey I ever saw. There
were eighteen fellows In the bunch of
us, and four others, and all ate a
sumptuous meal from one-half of his
breast."
Uncle Pete says he cannot account
for the one wooden leg unless that
turkey had been previously owned by
some one as a pet wild turkey.?Forest

This is a green pea puree, and makes

pods.
Put both in a stewpan, with'a small
peeled onion, one cabbage lettuce, previously
washed and a handful of washed
spinche; add enough water or
stock to well cover the ingredients, also
I a ninch of carbonate of soda and a
little salt.
Boil until the peas are tender, and
rub the whole through a sieve. Melt
one ounce of butter in a stewpan, and
add tc it a heaped up tablespoonful of
corn flour; cook for a few minutes
without allowing it to brown, then
pour in the puree of peas, etc., reheat
and allow it to cook for ten minutes,
season with salt and white pepper and
add a little cream or milk.
Just before serving add a teaspoonful
of finely chopped green mint and
a teas.poonfhl of castor sugar; serve
with small,dice of fried bread.
Parched Popcorn.
When the sweet corn commences to
ripen in the garden select several fine
ears having large firm grains and let
these ears remain just as they are on
the stalks- to ripen.
When they are quite dry remove from
the porn stalks without disturbing the
husks, bind into bunches with a strip
| of muslin and hang away in the attic
' in a dry place. After a few weeks, according
to What to Eat, the corn will
be ready for parching and -men wis
new sort of popcorn may be enjoyed.
Place an Iron spider or frying pan
over the fire, and tnrn into it a capful
or two of the corn, which should
be husked and removed from the ear
Just before using; the fire must not be
too hot and the corn must be stirred
frequently with a long fork, or it may
scorch. After a time the grains will
have puffed up until they are almost
round and will turn a delicate brown
color when they are done.
Turn the parched corn into a large
bowl and pour over it some melted
f butter, stirring the corn kernels about
so they will be buttered evenly, as one
butters ordinary popcorn; salt the corn
as soon as buttered and the corn, is
r ready to eat. This dainty may be called
"parched popcorn" to distinguish,it
from ordinary popcorn,

CATCHES RABBIT8 IN NUMBER. '
, ' I
Victim Traps Himself and Resets
The Snare for Others.
Consul General Bray reports froor ' j
Melbourne that a new rabbit trap is. V
being used in Australia with great p
success, whereby rabbits may be
caught alive in very large numbers.
It is used in connection with small
trap yards, diagrams for the construction
of which are supplied by tha
patentee of the traps. The trap it?
self is IS Inches long, 12 inches hlgB
and 6 inches in width. It has a balanced
moving floor and a door at
each end, which opens and closes au? A
tomatically. The weight of a rabbit
on the inverse end of a floor closes
the door behind him by which he has
entered and opens the door in front
leading to the trap yard, so that the
rabbit has no option but to go on,
and when he leaves the trap It goes
bock to its former position, thus re- , $
seting itself. The small trap yards
are constructed of double-wire netting '
fences, in the spaces between which im
green-fodder or hay is cultivated or
provided, and, although these foods '
cannot be reached by tie rabbits, ^
entices them to enter through the
traps to try and get out the fodder/
from the other side. Two, three
more traps may be used In conned; :> J$
tion with each trap yard. The Inven- tlon
has been tried with great sue* :.Ccess
on several extensive ranches in'
Australia, and the inventor has a *
number of certificates frop leading
ranchmen, one of whom states that \
with two of the traps set at a smalt
water hole he caught G30 rabbits
one night.
Excessive Use of Ices.
It was estimated a few years
that the Ice cream consumed during
the summer months in the city of
Cincinnati alone would make a mountaln
taller than the highest publhj/^^
building in the city. This gives bqfejpjB
a faint idea of the extent to which;/
the American people use ices and
kinds of iced drinks. IjSjB
Physicians tell us that ices eaten
hurriedly or in large quantities ar* > ;|||
rest digestion and are otherwise
jurious. In addition to this, much ol^J|j8
the ice cream sold in cities is of
most inferior kind and the cheap,
flavoring as well as the ingredients
used in "doctoring" It, and the fact
that it is frequently left standing for./^jva
several days at a time render it most-y^as
unheal th ful.
The English give us an example
moderation in the use of ices that. ||
wn misrht well imitate and the sooner : ^
we learn to check our appetite along...
this line,' the better will be our health
and the less our doctor's bills. - '
