Rear-End Collision Just Above the
Carbondalo Station.
Sunday morning nhortly after 0
o'clock, Onturln nnd Western Conduc
tor Knttpji, with a Norwich crew,
stopped his southbound train of light
coal cars Just above the station In this
city to switch off n couple of cars of
freight which were on the head end of
tho train. A Hag was not sent back
quickly enough and Conductor Somer's
train, with Knglneer Grant Wadsworth,
rounded a curve and ran Into the rear
end with a terrible crash. Tho crows
had time to jump and no one was In
jured, but cars were piled up In all
dlieotloiiH.
The collision occurred on the river
bank nnd the caboose was hurled over
a twenty-foot retaining wall into tho
river and completely demolished. The
smokestack of the locomotive, No. 184,
lay seventy-live feet from the engine,
in the river. Tills will give some idea
of tho force of the Impact. The cab on
tho fireman's side was shattered and
the front end of the locomotive badly
damaged. Three cars on the rear end
were demolished, as were two cars of
freight on tho head end of the first
train. They were forced over the re
taining wall and down onto the tracks
of the Delaware and Hudson lumber
yard. One car contained two top bug
gies hilled to Torbut & Fooks, of
Georgetown, Delaware. They were
broken. The car contained eggs, nnd
they were broken also.
Fortunately tho wreck occurred at a
long siding, but even with that advant
age the wreckers did not get tho road
open until 11.15 o'clock, which made the
morning passenger train for Hancock
two hours late.

JERMYN AND I.IAYFIELD.
The funerul of the late Thomas IJUh
was held yesterday afternoon. At -o'clock
a brief service was held at tho
family home on Main street, nfter
which the rema'ns were taken to K'.
James Episcopal church, wheie i'iu
services were continued. The Rev. l
E. Fessenden, rector of the church, offi
ciated and delivered an able discourse
from Act1 xi:24. "He was a good man"
and in part said: " This which was
said by Marimbas when lie was sent
' forth by the church at Jerusalem to
1 Antloch to establish the converts in
the faith, Is the best word that can be
spoken of any inun. In cannot be
said of any man In the nbsolute sense,
because, In the absolute sense, but oie
only and that Is God. Nevertheless,
to be able to say of any man in a quali
fied, comparative and limited sense
in which the. term Is applicable to hu
man beings Is to say the most and
best that can be said. Not, pel haps,
always In the estimation of the world
is it the best and greatest thing to
be a good man, not accoiding to human
fctnmtulds Is It the best, but In the esti
mation of God and according to a di
vine standard." In concluding his ror
mou the speaker eulogized the de
ceased, saying: "He was a true Chris
tian without any 'ifs' or 'buts,' or other
limiting and qualifying words, that is
to say he was n sincere, conscientious,
genuine disciple of the Lord Jesus
Christ. Not that ho hail reached the
standard of absolute perfection, uhli.li
none have 1 cached or enn reach, but
In faith and humility, accoiding to his
light wo may believe he strove to do
the will of God and to serve his gen
eration. He was a communicant and
nctlve member of this church and an
ollicer of the Men's Guild. He wa:i
also a liberal supporter of the church
and no one who saw him on his fp-1c
bed and observed his patience and
heard his words of faith and repent
ance and submission to the will of God
during thnt ptotracted sickness char
acterised by weak and painful cnl
weary and discouraging days and rest
less and sleepless nights could doubt
that God was hastening the ripening
process and preparing him for hea.en
and glory. Surely none of us could
wish to die a better death than he died,
for he fell asleep In Jesus, he died In
the lnlth of Christ's holy name, hav
ing received in anticipation of his end

most thankfully nnd most devoutly
the emblems of his Saviour's dying
love. His sorrowing family' have no
cause to grieve on hla account, for,
without doubt, with him It is well, Ha
Is certainly with his Saviour, In bliss
unutterable. They can truly sorrow
for themselves, for they have lost n
good and tender, careful father and
an nffectlonato husband, who was de
voted to his family nnd found his own
enjoyment In making nnd seeing them
prosperous and happy. They cannot
forget his pious and sollcltlous words
uttered on his bed of death nnd I have
no doubt that what ho then eo much
desired they will strive to do. In tho
day of tho world's complete redemp
tion and consummation there will not
only be a separation, but a reunion
of broken families. We pray that at
that time these grief-stricken friends
may find him whom for a time they
have lost, and that they may together
enjoy the presence and favor of God
and the bliss of heaven through the
never ending nges."

THEY RIDICULE IT.
Many Peoplo Rldtculo the Idea of an
Absolute Cure for Dyspepsia
and Stomach Troubles.
Ridicule, However, Is Not Argument
and Pacts Aro Stubborn Things.
Stomach troubles are so common
nnd In most cases so obstinate to euro
that people are npt to look with suspi
cion on any remedy claiming to bo a
radical, pernment cure for dyspepsia
and Indigestion. Many such prldo
themselves on their acutcness In ever
being humbugged, especially In medi
cines. This fear of being humbugged can
be carried too far, so far, In fact, that
many people suffer for years with weak
digestion rather than risk a little time
and money In faithfully testing tho
claims made of a preparation so reli
able and universally used as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsta Tablets nre
vastly different In one respect from
ordinary proprietary medicines for the
reason that they are not a secret patent
medicine, no secret Is made of their
Ingredients, but analysis shows them
to contain the natural digestive- fer
ments, pure aseptic pepsin, the diges
tive nclds, Golden Seal, bismuth, hy
drastls and nux. They aro not cathar
tic, neither do they act powerfully on
any organ, but they cure Indigestion
on the common sense plan of digesting
food eaten thoroughly before It has
time to ferment, sour nnd cause tho
mischief. This Is the only secret of
their sucoess.
Cathartic pills never have and never
can cure digestion and stomach
troubles because they act entirely on
the bowels, whereas the whole trouble
Is really In the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken af
ter meals digest thu food. That is all
there Is to it. Food not digested or
half digested Is poison, as It creates
gas, acidity, headaches, palpitation of
the heart, loss ot flesh and nnpetlto
and many other troubles' which aro
often called by some other name.
They aro sold by druggists every
where at 00 cents per package. Ad
