after a lucid charge by the Judge, one OF
these intelligent creatures arose ana

And in another case, tried In our Su-
preme Court within three months, being
an action to set aside certain convey

fraud, the trial had lasted more than
week, and the jury had been deliberating
over their verdict for several hours,

The first railroad constructed in Amer
lea was projected by Gridley Bryant,
civil engineer, in 1925, and carried
through by himself and Col. L. Il. Per.
kins in 1926. 1t was designed to carry
granite from the quarries OF Quincy,
NJ lass, to the nearest tidewater, and is
known as the Quincy Railroad. It is
four miles long, including branches, and
its first cost was $1,000. 1t was con-
structed as follows: Stone sleepers were
laid across the track eight feet apart;
upon these were placed wooden rails six
inches thick and twelve inches high; on
top OF these rails wrought-iron plates
three inches wide and one.quarter inch
thick were spiked, but on ali the cross
ings OF the public roads. and driftways
stone rails were used, and as the wooden
rails decayed they were replaced by 9th.
ers OF stone. This road was supplied
with the first turn-table ever used, which
was designed by Bryant, and is said to
be still in COOL order. Bryant also in
vented the portable derrick and the
switch, and constructed the first eight
Wheeled car ever used.

On the Cow-catcher.

from the Burlington (vt.) Free Press.l
As the Montreal express south over
the Central Vermont Railroad ap-
proachod Braintree Station Monday and
while the northern bound express train
was standing upon the side track, there
was noticed by the passengers who were
on board the northern train youth not
over ten years old sitting upon the cow
catcher of the engine. The boys ar
pearance in the perllous position star
tied the bystanders as the train rushed
by. He seemed to be well braced and
holding fast to the iron coupling rod.
The engineer was mouoned to go out
upon the front Of the engine, but the
train passed so swiftly he doubtless
knew not the meaning OF the motions.
w hen the train stopped at West Ran
dolph, twenty-one miles from Northfeid.
the boy jumped from the cow-catcher
and ran out OF sight.

Deranged by the Bite of Hog
IFrom the Baltimore News.l

Nine weeks ago Peter Harris, living
on the Belair Road, Just back OF the Balti-
more Cemetery, aud in the employ OF
MIR. Chester, blacksmith, was bitten by
a wild hog, which had been roaming
about that portion OF the city, resisting
all endeavors to trap him. Mr.. Harris
suffered severely from the bite, and soon
began to exhibit all the symptoms Of hy-
drophobia. He loaned NJ the mouth like
4 mad dog, became hysterical, smashed
chairs and looking-glasses, and wanted
10 hit his friends. Measures were boing
taken to remove the unfortunate man to
quarters where the lives or other people
would not be endangered, when sud.
denly, about ten days ago, he mys
tsriously disappeared, and mas not been
heard from since. The conjecture is
that Mr.. Harris has died, or ne would
have been heard from somewhere ere
this, as he was at the time OF his de-
parlure a raving maniac.
