continually crossing here al all hours OF the day

strange that the proper lighting OF the bridge

that IL Is properly lighted, IN order that no acct

WE ADMIRE the costly elegance Of
the palace coaches and sleeping cars
that run on our great railroads. Yet
on reflection we are inclined too be-
lieve, that with all the polished walnut
and silver mounted equipments there
is yet lacking an article which may
not prove so ornamental, but would
be useful in the highest degree. Let
us have in all the passenger cars where
every traveller can see them, two good
axes, A year ago a smash up occurred
on one OF the eastern road. TIL,
smoking car was complete wreck AN,
set on fire by the stove. All the pas
sengers escaped except one, prorli
nent divine, whose name has cscape
our memory. He was imprisoned b.,
the timbers, but in full view of his fell
low travellers who could have saved
him if they only had had an axe. He
sent farewell messages to his family
and was burned as if martyr at tn,
stake. Only last week collision hap
pened near Alton, and five lives were
lost by the cars burning. One poor
fellow with his foot caught begged for
some one to cut it off and free him.
Alas, the same old story, no axe to be
had, and he burned to death in the
sight Of thirty stout men.
We ask the legislature to investigate
this matter, and they will find that axes
should be carried in every car.
