PECULIAR COLLISION 'On the Sonthern Road at Atlanta Causes Death of Three. WILD SWITCH ENGINE’S WORK In Addition to the Killed, Many People Were Badly Injured—Yard Con ductor Arrested and Held on Suspicion. While the combination passenger train, composed of cars from Macon and Fort Valley, was running into At lanta Tuesday morning over the South ern road, another engine dashed into it from the side track leading from the old East Tennessee shops to the main line. Three killed outright and many in jured—some seriously, others but slightly —is the result of the accident. The first class coach of the passen ger train, was overturned and com pletely wrecked. The handsome Pull man sleeper, next to it, had one end crushed in. while the car ahead of the first class coach was also damaged. Those killed in the wreck were Mrs. A. A. Lemon, of McDonough, her lit tle daughter, Irma, and H. H. Vickers, of Flovilla. Those injured were: A. F. Bunn, McDonough, Ga.; J. A. Fouche, Mc- Donough, Ga.; Mrs. Julia Kersey, At lanta, Ga.; N. H. Vickers, Flovilla, Ga.; W. T. Tidwell, McDonough, Ga.; D. A. George, Knot, Ga.; William Rich ardson, Stockbridge, Ga.; Miss Rosa Lee, Stockbridge, Ga.; Miss Alma Mas senger, Washington, D. C.; Mrs. J. E. Ridley, Huntsville, Ala.; E. G. Eggles ton, Atlanta; G. V. Harvey, Atlanta. Mrs. Lemon was the wife of Alexan der A. Lemon, a prominent business man of McDonough. Mr. Lemon is in terested in the McDonough Mercantile Company, is the owner of the Brown house at that place and has a large farm near McDonough. His daughter, who was killed, was about eight years old. Mrs. Lemon also had one of her chil dren, a baby less than a year old, in her arms at the time the colision took place. The baby was not injured. Her two other children, a boy and a girl, were also on the train with her, but they escaped injury. Mr. Vickers was a prosperous young farmer of Flovilla. He was on his way to Atlanta to have his eyes examined by a specialist, and was accompanied by his brother, N. H. Vickers, who es caped with a few injuries. Mr. Vick ers was the son of Jacob Vickers, of Flovilla, and had been marrieu about two years. He leaves a wile and a child. Mystery Envelopes Accident. Mystery seems to cloud the direct cause of the accident. G. B. Dunton, a yard conductor for the road, was ar rested, pending investigation by the police authorities. Employees of the road say he was upon the engine, and C. O. Wallace, a switchman, is ex pected to give damaging testimony against Dunton in the recorder’s court. Dunton declares he was not on the engine when it ran into the passen ger train, and does not know who was. He says he did board the engine and rang the* bell to get hostlers to get the engine off the switch that he might move his own engine onto the main line to return to the North ave- nue yard. He says that after ringing the bell he stepped off the engine, walked down the tracks and was looking at the passenger train when the collision took place. He was wounded over the left eye, while his face was badly burned and scalded. Wallace, the switchman, declined to make any statement for publica tion. He stated that what he had to say would be brought out during the hearing of the case against Dunton of “disorderly conduct,” which was book ed against him at the police barracks Tuesday afternoon by the arresting officers.

AYER CO., Lowell, Mass. THE BACTERIA WE EAT. Million, in a Pat of Butter and a Score of Millions in Milk. Why is blitter salted? Mrs. C. C. Frankland gives a scientific answer in Longman’s Magazine as follows: “We must first realize that the bacterial pop ulation of a modern-sized pat of butter may be reckoned by millions; that a tiny lump only large enough to go into a thimble has been known to be tenanted by nearly 48,000.000; that, in fact, in consuming a slice of bread and butter you may unsuspiciously be assimilating individual lives exceeding in number those of the whole of Europe! I hus the urgency for keeping these hordes in check, and hence the efforts which are made first to set up effectual barriers to their ingress by taking proper precautions in the production of milk, and, secondly, in the conduct of the processes involved in the manufacture and distribution of the finished article. Included in these processes is the addi tion of salt in such quantities as to justi fy the butter being known as salt but er, this addition being made with the ob ject of extending the keeping powers of the butter, or in other words, to suppress to a large extent the activities ot the butter bacteria. That salt does a<A in this manner is shown by the fact that in butter thus treated a very large reduc tion in the number of micro-organisms present is effected. There can be little doubt, therefore, that the common but ter microbes do not by any means regard salt as their elixir of life!’’ The writer also refers to the investi gations of a Russian savant, M. Zakher bekoff, who carried out an elaborate in quiry into the bacterial quality of the milk supplied to St. Petersburg. The figures lie obtained are appalling. Milk described and supplied as the purest pro' curable was found to contain a minimum of over 10.000.000 and a maximum of no less than 83,000,000 of bacterial in from 20 to 25 drops, while in other samples a minimum of 2,400,000 and a maximum of 114,500,000 were found. How un necessary such bacterial pollution of milk is may be gathered from the fact that milk under normal healthy conditions contains no bacteria whatever as it issues from the cow; that if due precautions of cleanliness, etc., are observed milk may be obtained absolutely sterile, or, in other words, entirely devoid of bac terial life. Such milk has frequently been procured from cows in cases where it has been required in its natural state, free from bacteria, for experimental purposes.

THE WEEKLY NEWS, CARTERSYILLE, GA Poor Hetty Green There is a shoemaker who lived at one time in Far Rockaway, who has a stock story to tell of the melancholy time when he cheated himself. There lived in his neighborhood a poor woman who had rented one of the summer cot tages which she was able to hire at 3 low sum for the winter because no one else would take it. She lived in only a few rooms of the house, the kitchen and a little room out of it. a dining room, where she had a small smoky stove which had gradually darkened the walls to a cloudy gray. Everything about the house was of the simpdest, even of the poorest, and the kind-hearted shoe maker felt sorry for the poor woman who lived in this uncomfortable fashion. She brought him a shoe to mend one day. He did the work in his best fash ion, and when she came for it refused the money. "It is nothing, madam,” he said, cheer fully. “I was glad to do it.” The wo man thanked him and left. “Why did’nt you charge her?” asked an astonished witness of the scene. "She is such a poor woman I didn’t like to,” answered the shoemaker, apolo getically. "Poor!” cried the spectator. “She is the richest woman in this country. That was Hetty Green.” —New York Times.
