WHAT T1IK DISASTER TEACHES
The appalling marine disaster of
Farther Point coming so Boon after
tke Titanic tragedy and the more re
cent Volturno catastrophe, will be
sere to check ocean travel for a
time. Already many people who
had been booked for passage have
ancelled their sailing because of
fear. And yet that is a foolish thing
t do. In spite of such gigantic loss
f life on the Empress of Ireland,
'and other boats within the last two
jmtM, navigation is reasonably safe,
even more so than travel on land.
At the same time, It is clear that
any disasters would not have hap
pened If proper care had been shown.
Apparently that was the case with
he Iobs of the Empress. Some one
was at fault or such a thing would
not have occurred. It Is out of place
te fix the blame on any one man un
til the official investigation is finish
ed, but nevertheless it is certain that
the two boats would not have collid
ed if on both vessels the rules of
Bavigatlon had been observed. It
"will likely be proved that owing to
the criminal negligence of some of
ielal nearly a thousand souls were
sent to eternity within a few min
utes, and not all the repentance and
anguish the guilty one may feel can
undo the mischief and bring back to
life those men, women and children
who were looking forward to a hap
py voyage, and nothing can banish
the sorrow, trial and bereavement
that hundreds of families experience.
The disaster will probably call at
tention once more to the recent at
tempts to insure greater safety at
sea. The LaFollette bill, which has
that end in view, and which has ma
ny excellent points, has been buried
somewhere in Congress, probably
through the influence of the great
shipping interests which always op
pose the Installing of improvements
because they cost money and so les
sen the dividends. Probably the La
Follette bill may now be reported in
deference to public opinion. If it is
the Empress disaster will have ac
complished some good, even though
the price was awful. How much
need there 1b to watch the great ship
ping firms and compel them to install
sufficient safeguards was recently re
vealed by Mr. Mellen when he told
the investigating committee that
some of the vessels in which he, Mor
gan and others had been interested
were nothing
boxes."

Bell Crushes Skull
The hired man on the Dave Taylor
ranch, thirty miles northenst of Alli

noon while ringing the dinner bell.
The bell was Insecurely fastened and

THE JINGOES
The publishers of yellow papers
cut up all kinds of Jingo capers, and
naught can make them cease; for
gory war they wildly clamor, and
use the bludgeon and the hammer on
all who stand for peace. To sell
more papers they'd be willing to see
the nation go forth spilling its own
and others' blood; they'd stir old
hates and make them hotter, and nag
our statesmen on to slaughter, and
stain our flag with mud. They care
not for the hopes of others, nor for
the tears of wives and mothers, nor
for the swaths of dead; to boost a
frenzied circulation they would em
broil a peaceful nation and stain the
A NEW MILCH COW
Great Claims Made for Milk Pnxlur
tlon of (he !etter Cow
Most of the readers of this paper
are more Interested in beef cattle
than they are In dairy breeds, but
the Information contained in the fol
lowing from the Omaha World-Herald
of June 4 will interest many as
a matter of curiosity:
A new milch cow has been Intro
duced Into the United S'.atea and
will hereafter be listed In the herd
books. If what is published about
this row Is true, she will bo a great
benefit, especially to the families In
the cities having a small plot of
land. It Is said of her breed:
The Dexter Is a little brewed of
cattle of which a full grown
cow is only a yard in height,
can thrive in a bark yard a few
yards square and yet give twen
ty quarts of rich milk a day.
Mrs. Clarence Moore of Wash
ington has Imported a number
of the diminutive cattle from
Ireland and has them on her
farm near Washington.
. A long account Is given of the an
cestry of the Dexters and it Is said
that the Dexter of today is an ani
mal that, according to the state
ments of those who know the breed
very well, can survive and enjoy life
In places where a goat would find
poor feeding.
A Dexter cow, owned by J. B.
Haggln, owner of Elmendorf farm
near Lexington, Ky., gave 1,100 gal
lons of milk In one year, while at the
farm of Howard Gould a record of
four of Ms Dexter cows was kept 1
the milk and butter fat figures for
one year being 6,051 gallons, witk
an average butter fat content of 4.1
per cent.
There have been some reference
to this breed In the agricultural
press, bui statu lately they were H9
repted by farmers generally as fakel
stories. The late publications gtrtf
assurance that the stories wero noS
"fakes" and that there is such at
breed of cows likely to prove of
great value under some condition
and fill a place that cannot be filled
by any other breed.
