Tho outrage and murder of women In
country places who venture abroad unat
tended after dark Is becoming an alarming
ly frequent occurrence In this country.
The murder of Mrs. Catbarlno Taswell,
near Iiryn Mawr, when on her way hon'e
from church Sunday evening, brings this
crime pretty close to Philadelphia. The
dangerous tramps who Infest and terrorize
the suburbs have made country roads extra
hazardous for women who venturo on
them without male escort after the day has
begun to fade. As long as such ruffians
are at large anil the necessity of policing
country roads is not recognized, tho only
safe course for women In suburban dls.

Seventeen years ago the tenth ot last

Columbia Co. "In nil thoso years your
paper has been a weekly visitor to our
home. We would bo lonely without it, for
wo still nr bound to old Columbia Co. by
friendship and kindred tics aud their wel
fare we love to read of. This year
has been the great drouth. Corn and
potatoes arc only half a crop. This is do
ing well when wu remember that not a
half Inch of rain fall from the 9th. day of
May until the first day of Sept. In this
county and several others in Iowa wheat
and oats were a splendid crop nnd hay
crop was never belter. Politics runs high
now and have some fine speaking dono
here. The Republicans are badly scared
but we believe in being true to the old
Democratic party and all will bo well. I

husband of mine to the polls."

A Strange glory.
A THAIS DlSI'ATCIIEIl's ACCOUNT OF A 11AIL
UOAD OltDKl! AND ITS HISTORY.
From the Detroit Freo Press.
Several years ago I was employed as
train dispatcher on n Southwestern Ameil
can railroad. As usual, there were three
of us In the olllce. I had what is called
the "second trick," my hours of duty be
ing from i p. in. to 12 p. m. Tho third
man, Charlie Burns, who came on nt mid
night and worked until 8 a. m , was a par
tlcular friend of mine. Ho was a young
man of high character, a lino dispatcher
and very popular; and when, during tho
burning days of July, It became known
among tho men that he was confined to bis
room by a severe attack of malignant fever,
many weie the expressions of regrtt and
of hope for his speedy recovery.
During the trying days of Charlie's ill
ness I spent all tlmo I could sparo by his
side, but on account of his absence from
the olllce it was necessary for tbo remain
ing two of us to "double up" that is.
work twelve hours each, my watch being
from 8 p. m. to 8 a. ra. I came on duty
one evening feeling very ill. Tho weather
was so warm I could not sleep well In tho
dayt'mo j besides, I had spent a consider
able part of the day with Charlie, whose
illness had now reached n critical stage,
and seemed to show little prospect of 1m-
provenient.
Hence, as you may imagine, I was not at
all pleased to find that I was likely to have
a busy night of It. A wreck on tho road
during the day had thrown all the regular
trains off time, and besides the usual num
ber of special freights there was n special
passenger train to leave Llnwood, the
Eastern terminus of our division, at 11 p.
m. with a large party of excursionists.
For several hours I had my hands full.
There was a special train of live stock
bound East. As usually happens in such
cases the excursion did not get ready to
leave on time, nnd it was 11.40 p. m. when
they reported for orders at Llnwood. I
fixed up their orders, got tho report of
their departure from Llnwood'at 11.45 and
entered it on tho train sheet. Then I roso
from tho table nod went over and seated
myself by tbo window, where It was cooler
than under the heated gas-jets. I was
alone in tho olllce nnd as I sat there enjoy
ing the cool breeze which camo in through
the open window a neighboring church
clock rang out tho hour of 12. From force
of habit I glanced at the door, almost ex
pecting to hear Charlie's light footstep on
the stair and st3 the door open to admit
him as of old.
"Poir fellow," I thought, "It will bo a
long tlmo before ho enters that door again,
if ho ev-r does." Just at the last stroke of
twelve, and while my eyes were still fixed
on the door, it opened and Charlie Burns
entered- My first thought was that In tho
lellrlum of fover ho had escaped from his
nurses and made bis way to iho olllce, but
when I left him a few hours beforo I could
not have believed that he lud strength to
get out of bed, I sat and watched him In
speechless surprise, which vas increased
by his strange manner.
Instead of his usual hearty greeting bo
took no notlco of mo at all. but walked di
rectly to the tablo and sat down. Placing
his hand upon tho key he began calling
"(," which was tho signal for Elm Grove,
tho tlrst station, six miles west of Llnwood.
"1, I, 11," came tho response, "Put out
signal for special passenger west and
copy." "Ito," "Ito," "Ds," rang out the
sounder with Charlie's nimble fingers upon
the key. "Ito" was tho call for Itosedalc,
tho second station from Llnwood, eight
miles west of Elm Grove. "1, I, Ho," camo
back the answer
Then, as I sat by tbo widow as ono para
lyzed, tho awful truth Hashed across my
ml ml. I had overlooked tho stock train,
thundering entwnrd twenty miles an hour,
and mado no provision for its meeting tiio
excursion train. My blood seemed turned
to leo as I heard tho reply:
They arc at tho switch. Ito "
Aiiother minute and it would have been
too lute. Still apparently oblivious of my
presence, Charlie reached for tho older
book wllh his left hand, whllo his right
combined to manipulate tho key, and
heird the sounder click out tho order that
held the train. Quick as a flash came back
tho response from each station and in less
tlmo than It takes mo to wrlto It the order
had been repeated and signed by tbo con
ductor and engineer of each train, while
Charllo copied It Into tho order book and
returned his "O. Iv." Then, ns I realized
that 1 was saved aud a great disaster avert
rd, the revulsion of feeling was too much
lor my over-strained nerves and l lost con
sclousuess.
An hour after I was awakened bv a fiv
miliar voice, nnd looked up to find Frank
Dwyer, one of our conductors who had
volunteered to watcii that nieiil witn unar.
lie, standiug over me, "Wako up," old
mau," said ho, "1 havo bad news for you
Charlie died just as tho clock was striking
VJ." i roused myse t and went to mo la
ble. There on the order-book was tho or
dcr just as I had heard It clicked out by
the sounder, and "ito" was calllug mo to
rt'iiorl me two trains saieiy uv. Had
been dreaming and sent tho order In my

Almost All Aiiout Blankets.
Will you read about blankets
if we eive the utmost informa
tion we can in the lewest possi
ble words ? All sorts of blank
ets no, not all sorts there are
tons on tons of blankets that
never enter our doors because
they never ought to enter yours.
Blankets tor use and blankets
for beauty and blankets for both.
Begin with the prettiest.
California takes the palm for
uxurious blankets ; and Mission
Mills come first. The finest we
have from Mission Mills are 35
pair. Such wool ! Imagine
Swan's-down not spun and
woven but somehow done into
blankets ! Invisible texture !
Whiteness and softness incon
ceivable ! Don't buy them un-
ess for pure extravagance.
Think of the care they require !
But Mission Mills make useful
blankets also, from very fine in
deed at to we don't
know where to draw the line.
Of these we have said already
the coarsest are finer than any
Eastern blankets, but not so
economical.
Golden Gate is another Cali
fornia blanket mill. It lacks the
singular fame of the other. Its
blankets are only less extrava
gant. It s the California wool !
work too. Such wool demands
such work. It seems a pity to
put them into blankets. And
yet there are people who are
willing to pay for them. $10 to
$30.
Now for beautiful excellent
practical blankets not too fine to
enjoy. ihe linest such are
made in this city the Falls of
Schuylkill mill. Begin to think
by the pound ; about si. 25 a
pound for the finest all-wool ;
not mute so line si. luill-size
blankets $6 to $12.50 a pair,
according to fineness and
weight ; and smaller for less in
proportion.
Another, made in New ling-
land, all-wool, not quite so fine,
a winning blanket the border is
uncommonly pretty I: about
$1,125 a pound; $7.50, $8.soj
and $9.50 a pair, according to
weight, lor lull size blankets.
And here gomes in an acci
dent : uist one blanket, 79x90
inches, 7 lbs, $6.50 about 93c a
pound, all-wool and as good as
the si. 1 2 14. We have only a
hundred and fifty pairs. When
gone no more.
1 Ins isn t an accident
Cheaper yet. The blanket for
nine out of ten. Cotton warp,
wool filling, 75c a pound as near
as we can stato it, All sizes ana
weights within reason : $3.75 a
