Man and Eternity.
What is it Dr. Wallace asks us to
believe and has written a paralogistic
book in the attempt to prove? It is
that at some distant period, and Dr.
Wallace makes much of its distance as
an argument in his favor, this uni
verse was called into existence by the
will of a Creator for a speciflc pur
pose, the production of man. Assum
ing the initial fact, we must agree with
Dr. Wallace in assigning hundreds of
millions of years to the age of the
universe. Then there arrived man. He
has been here for a few hundreds of
thousands of years. He has still a few
—a very few—millions of years to run.
It is true that in one place Dr. Wallace
speaks of him as ‘•permanent,” but
elsewhere he repeatedly admits there
must come—and that comparatively
soon—a period to man's existence. But
he has apparently never asked himself,
“What then?” We know that matter
and energy are indestructible. We
have every reason to believe the uni
verse will exist forever, and Dr. Wal
lace suggests no alternative. Yet ho
believes that the hundreds of millions
of stars were called into existence
eons ago and will continue to exist
for a quite indefinite period to come in
order that man might live upon the
earth for a few millions of years—a
fraction of a second in an eternity.—

cries attracted the rescuers, and men,
many of them bleeding from wounds
about the face and arms worked he-

hours of steady work to relieve her.
When she was taken out she ad
dressed the doctor who was bending
over her as "papa.”
The physician did not have the
heart to tell her that she was an or

been killed. Mr. Martin was instant- j

The child was suffering from a broken
ankle, where the heavy stove fell on
her, and severe scalp contusions.
A dozen or more Topeka physicians
arrived at the scene on the relief train

Worst Wreck In Years.
The wreck was one of the most se
rious that has happened on the Rock
Island system in years. Between
Kansas City and Topeka, the Rock
island uses the tracks of the Union
Pacific and as there are no general
offices of either road in this city, de
tails of the disaster were obtained
with difficulty. Several reporters,
who boarded the relief train as it lelt
Topeka early this morning, were put
off the train shortly alter it started,
and the first details ot the collision
came from persons on the wrecked
train after they had been returned to
Topeka.
Occurring, as it did, at a small sta
tion with few facilities for aid, there
was much delay In extracting the
dead and injured. The train was
composed of a combination baggage
and mail car, a regular baggage car.
a smoker, a tpurist sleeper and a
standard sleeper.
Partial List of the Dead.
Many of the dead had not been iden
tified at 11 o’clock today. The list
as far as known at that hour follows:,

Jane Griffin, Claremont, Mo.
Gail Fuller, Blockton, Iowa.

Fires were built along the track !
at short intervals and by the light of
these the rescuers, In their eagerness
to remove the victims, chopped open
ings in the wrecked coach until ex
hausted, then handed their axes to
others. The entire sides of the car
had been chopped away when th<
work was completed. Occasionally
the rescuers would desist upon an
alarm being raised by watchers who
declared that the chopping away of the
coach was lotting the smoker down
upon the victims.
So terrific was the force of the col
lision that the smoker left the trucks
tn its backward rush, leaving the
trucks still upon the track. Not a
wheel in the entire passenger train
seemed to be off the track.
Dead and Dying Cattle.
The freight train fared differently.
The four cars immediately behind
the engines nvere crushed into kind
ling wood. Dead and dying cattle
littered the right of way, while many
which had escaped from the cars un
injured, ran about adding to the con
fusion. On the passenger train In the
sleeper was a young physician who
walked with a crutch as the result ot
some spinal trouble. He was thrown
down and slightly injured, but was the
first man to emerge from the sleeper
and immediately began aiding the in
jured. He had a portion of the chair
car. and the berths in the sleeper
cleared and to them the victims were
carried. The physician was without
instruments or medicines, and the only
thing he could do was to bind up the
wounds with bandages, which he did,
by tearing up sleeper sheets and pil
low cases and giving the patients
whisky to deaden the pain.
The young doctor found the fireman
who was injured in the leg; an artery
was broken, and he took it up with
a penknife and tied it with a thread,
probably preventing the fireman from

The records of the victims of the i
theater fire both of the police and cor 1
oner, are still incomplete, and do not
tally. In both offices clerks are try
ing to straighten them out, after whicu
it will be possible to check them ami;
investigate the errors.
Many rushed to the police headquar
ters on the night following the fire!
and reported as dead or missing,
friends or members of their families
who were afterward found unharmed.,
Others are reported missing, when in
reality they had been taken to the hos
pitals. In most cases where this j
mistake was made the police were not
notified when the person sought was i
tound.
Thursday an official count of the
dead in the various morgues was made
by the police and it was announced
o8G bodies had been found. To this
total have been added from time to
time the names of those who have
died from injuries received in the tire
until the police list reached 591 and
o! those, four bodies still remain un
claimed.
Ho far as the police know, there are
but two persons still missing whose
bodies have not been recovered nor
who are among the unidentified dead.
