The train was made up of two baggage oars, two day coaches, one sleeper, and one dining car, and was carrying at the time, at the lowest estimate, 150 passengers The train ploughed along for a considerable distance and the oars were torn to pieces, passengers jumping, screaming, falling from the wreok as it tore along. Suddenly the engine swerved to the left and the coaoheB plunged down over the embankment to the edge of the Youghiogheny river. Many passengers were pinned beneath the wreok, and the screams and cries that rent the air were beyond description.

SilS,EfSf3P3s;rt:s the example of our forefathers, by the traditions of our country, by Holy Writ and by the concensus of opinion ol good men and true of all nations in all ages have now the same claim upon us as they have had and will have always. It is the day of the Peacemaker, and i as it ia enjoyed in the home circle, thinking with charity upon our neighbors, yet other words of Father Fat ate worthy of remembrance— "Most people are much better than tbey think they are,a great deal better than we consider them to be." CHRISTMAS. The Would wishes Rossland a happyj Christmas. Tomorrow we commemorate the natal day of the Master "Peace on earth to men of good trill," as the Vulgate hath it. Essentially a bome holiday, there is none other more widely kept in Christian communities than this. Those who have homes may rejoice in the fact and think kindly of those who have none. To those without, whether the memory be one of regret or bitterness, will depend greatly the gladneBB to be obtained from tbis season of the year. It iB true, tbat which iB often alleged, that mixed up with the Christian ceremonies of the day are relics of older customs, but it it) yet to be shown that theBe were not worthily adopted by Christians. Father Pat used to declare, and today is the seventh anniversary of bis building of the Anglican church here, lhat the good that waB in the world before the coming of Christ, the good deeds, the wise words, were the inspiration of the Almighty. The customs of Christmas, hallowed by long usage, by JAPAN Japan seems to be a small country to go to war with Russia, but it must be remembered that though the Russians outnumber the Japs three or four to one when it comes population, and twenty to one when it comes to territory, they are situated some three or four thousand miles, so far as centres of population are concerned, frona the probable theatre of war, while the Japs aro next door. Furthermore, that the disparity between the navies is not so greal aa is the disparity between the coaling stations. Russia can get coal at the Black Sea, and if a man of war were |to load up with coal at the Black Sea she would have just enough to carry her to Vladiavostock, At VladisvoBtock and Nicolaijevsk there are small storages of coal which would not take long to exhaust, and as both Vladivostook and as Nicolaijevsk are closed from early • November till March, they would not bo of much use to a RuBBian fleet, should war be precipitated. Thus the odds are Dot so great as would at ilrst appear, for it is UBeleBS to say tbat Japan is particularly well supplied with coal in ioe free ports. That in well known. Further, that Japan operating in Korea will certainly have the Koreans on ber side, and operating in Manchuria would have the Boxers, the western name for the present misguided patriotic party. China would wait to see tbe winners, and throw her armies on that side. But should China prove recalcitrant, exactly in the opposite corner of her Empire is Yunnan with its fanatical Moslem hordes, perennially in revolt, and back of whicb iB that Indian army of six hundred thousand men oapable of almost indefinite increase and possessing a staff corps second to none in the world. This would be one slight advantage to Japan of her alliance with Qreat Britain. There is very little doubt on which side China would lind itself, and Bhould war breok out Russia will be as surely driven north and west of the Gobi desert olear of Manohuria, clear,of the valleys of the Yellow River and of the Yangtsze, as Bhe waB driven out of Turkestan, west of tbe Altais by victorious Chinese hordes over a century ago.

Tbe aotions of that life of yours leave spirit prints behind them from tbe most infinitesimal to the largest. Now, seel I have bat to wish, and there again ia all the moving pan- tomime around you of that unhappy day when you well nigh died upon this spot,' and the oblef- tainess leaped to her feet and swept her arm around and looked into tbe void and smiled and nodded as though all the wild spectacle sbe spoke of were anaoting under her very eyes. 'Surely, you see it! Look at the priests and the people, and there the running foreigners and that tall youth at their head- why, O trader in oils and dyes! it is not the rememberanos of the thing, it is, I swear it, the thing itself—' But never a line or color oould I peroeive, only the ourling smoke overhead looped and hung like tapestries upon the grey liohened walls, and the blaok night time through the crevioas. And, slip covering thie, Blodwen suddenly stopped and looked upon me with vexed oompaBsion. 'I am sorry, I am no good teacher to so outrun my pupil. Ask me henceforth what simple questions you will, and they shall be answered to the best I can.' And so presently I went on. 'if thoBe things which have been are thus to,you—and it does not seem impossible—how is it with those other things of today, or et ill unborn of the future? How far can you more favored ones foresee or guide those things to whicb we, unhappy, but submit?' 'The strong tide of circumstance, Phoenician, is not to be turned by suoh hands as these'—and she held her pallid wrists towards the blaze, until I saw the ruddy gleam flash back fiom the rough gold bosses of her anoient bracelets. 'There are laws outside your comprehension whioh are not framed for your narrow understanding. We obey these as much as you, but we perceive with infi nitely clear vision the inevitable logio oi fate, the true sequence' of event*, and thuB it is sometimes within our power to amend and guide tbe details of that brief episode which you call your life.' 'Do you say that priceless span, my comrades, yonder sleeping gir), and all the others Bet bo high a value on is but "an episode"?' 'Yes—a halting step upon a wondrous journey, half a gradation upon the mighty spirals of existence!' 'And time?' I aek(d, full of a wonder that Boaroe found leisure to comprehend one word ot hers before it asked another question. 'Is there time with you? Even I, re* ilectiva now and than upon this, long journey of mine, have thought that time must be a myth, an impossibility to large experience.' [To be continued.] AMONG ROSSLAND SHOPS- Merchants of tne Cams are Rising te tha Occasion The shoestores, Lalonde and Mo- Neilljhave particularized the season by laying in a stook snowshoes and other winter footwear, forming acceptable enough Christmas presents. McArthur & Harper are as ueual up-to-date and have a fine variety of goods from which to select. The jewellers, shops, Ewert Bros and Challooer have also laid in a fine stock of holiday goods, for which they are finding ready ►ale. Linton Bros and M. E. Simpson, stationers, will also be found to be well worth visiting by those who are of a literary or frivolous turn of turn of mind. All sorts of Christmas presents especially in the way of pictorial Christmas post cards, are to be found in their places of business. Among the grocers Agnew and H. It Jones have both laid in nice stocks and are extending a hearty welcome ta their customers. For the convivially inolined Levy's cigar store and the Bank, Palace and Hoffman hotels are offering a different order of inducements. For the oharitable Lingle has wood on hand to supply a weloome Christmas gift. Petob and Schwartzenhauer have made a speciality of a Christmas cake whioh they aver equals anything of home manufacture or of importation. The B. C. Market has made a specialty this year of v^nm 11 and to the Canadian venison iB a more national appeal than even the 'roast beef of Old England.' B. Bannett is to the fore with a number of useful articles in tbe way of wearing apparel which form of Christmas purchasing should appeal to many. But for those who intend to be stylish no morel serviceable Christmas present even if apparently Belfieh, can be bad than an up to date business suit or winter overcoat at Taylor and McQnarrie's whioh firm has gone to some trouble in laying in a special line of goods which need not necessarily hit the pocket too hard. Last but not least at the offices of J. B. Johnson oan be procured skating season tickets which is one of the prettiest forms of a Christmas gift and, not unusually,has re- cults. Altogether it may be said that the efforts of the Rossland merchants show a ready spirit to recognize the improving times.

THE I0NA Toronto* Coservatives Oppose Urquhart on Party Grounds Toronto, Deo, 24.—When the municipal nominations closed at noon today it was found that the Tories had succeeded after all in finding a candidate to oppose the re-eleotion of mayor Urquhart. - Some days ago an understanding was arrived at that mayor Urquhart was not to be opposed solely baoause he was a Liberal. His administration of civic affairs during his year of offioe has been more than satisfactory to the great mujority of citizens, Conservatives and Liberals alike. It was felt that he should be given another year, and prominent Conservatives agreed to this. However, the machine element would not abide by this decision They claimed that Toronto was Conseivative and that the ohief magistrate should be a Conservative. No reputable party man would accept the nomination, and up to last night it looked as though Mayor Urquhart would be unopposed, because there is really nothing in the candidature of the Sooi alist, who will not poll 500 votes. At the last moment the ward committees persuaded Oliver How- land to accept nomination. He was defeated last year by Uiqu hart. The Socialist nominee is G. A. Maves.
