How to Run q Railway Train AT the
Rate of q Mile 8 Minute.

From the Danbury News
A DanouIy man is confident that 10 time
passenger trains will be run at the rate of
mile minute. He is evolving pao for tax
ing on passengers without stopping the train,
and thus save this time in running. He thinks
a rack formed OF q scoop made OF netting, with
a back to it, and horizontal bar ten inches
below will do it. This is to be attached to the
Car and worked on a powerful hinge. He was
10 Merrill grocery with rough model of his
machine last evening, explaining its working
to 40 interested auditory His idea is to have
the passengers stand In line on the station
platform, with their backs to the approaching
train, and Dear enough to where it will pass to
bring them within range OF the scoop. On the
approach of the rack the horizontal bar strikes
the expectant passenger in tie hollow, back of
the knees, which causes him to lop backwards,
when he is caught IN the scoop and whirled in
to the car, and the next back rack takes the
next forward passenger, and so on unit all are
taken up.
How are you going to land them people

The FRuIT PRosPECTs.-Thete have
been various speculatiOns recently rela.
tive to the fruit prospects, this season,
grave fears having been expressed that
the cold snap had entirely destroyed the
budsoi the peaches, at least. A few days
since we gave the opinion Of several
fruit growers with whom we had con.
versed, to the effect that both peaches and
apples had suffered to very great ex.
tent, up to that time. The remarkably
severe weather Of last week and thi. week,
Il was thought, had finished the work Of
destruction. A day or two OF sunshine
has elapsed, and although the exact OK.
tent Of the injury cannot he ascertained,
the prospect 4 not so bad. Many Of the
apple trees have not budded, and arc
thought to be safe. Peach prospects look
dark; ditto early pears, cherries, etc.
Early vegetables in cold frames have sui.
fered severely, and in many instances
have been entirely destroyed.
