Died for Her Child.

Special Dispatch to the Daily Tribune:
M1NNEAPoL1s, July 29.-A special tele-
gram to the Minneapolis Tribune from
Montevideo, says that as a runaway team
was passing the house of Mr.. Gundin
near here today, Mrs. Gundin saw that
unless she could turn the horses her
little child playing in the road would be
killed. She rushed in front of then, and
caught them by the bits. The child was
saved but the wagon pole caught the he
roic mother in the pit of the stomach and
fairly disemboweled her. She lived but
a few hours.

Railroad Notes.

The railroad contractors at San Diego
find the Indians employed as graders su-
psrior to either white men or Chinese.
The greatest elevation of the railway
on the new overland road is 4,614 feet at
Dragon Summit, Arizona. Its general
elevation through New Mexico is 4,300
feet.
The longest narrow gauge road in the
world is the Utah & Northern railroad,
which has just been completed to Mel
rose, in Montana territory, 377 miles from
Ogden.
At one time last winter the Chicago &
Northwestern railroad had 1000 men at
work shoveling snow, and tho St. Paul
5000 men, at $3.50 a day and board. The
Illinois Central had also at one time sew
eral thousand men employed at this
work. The total cost to the western rail-
roads by the snow blockade was not loss
than S2,00O,o00.
The experiment of running a locomo
tive without brakes has just been sue
.cessfully tried by the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna s. Western railroad company.
The locomotive IS of ordinary pattern,
but has an extra pipe leading from the
boiler to the steam chest, by which power
can be applied against the piston, cheek
ing the engine and ena bling the engine
to reverse without "hauling over"
Glass sleepers for street railways have
been tried with good results, and il is pro-
posed to make broad longitudinal Sleep
ers of glass, having groove in the upper
surface, and SO, combining in themselves,
the functions of both sleepers and rails,
do away with the necessity for separate
iron rails with their tastenings, JOINTS and
other complications. 1t is claimed that
by properly tempering glass with oil this
very brittle substance can be made, mass
for mass, stronger than steel and practi.
calIy unbreakable.
The ten-inch gauge road running from
Moth Billcrica, Mass, to Bedford is eight
and half miles long. There are eleven
bridges on the road, one of which IS over
100 feet long. The rails weigh twenty
five pounds to the yard. The road is we'll
built and equipped. The cars are con.
structed very near the ground, giving
them great advantages Of safety. They
have an aisle with one seat on each side,
in the same manner as ordinary cars have
two seats, each person having seat to
himself. The cars are supplied with clos
cts and water tanks, ale heated by steam,
and have all the modern Improvements.
They weigh but four and a half tons, or.
d1nary cars weighing on an average eigh-
teen tons. The trains run at the rate OF
twenty miles al hour with perfect safety.
The engine is placed behind the tender,
giving it greater adhesion to the track.
They weigh eight tons and draw two pas
senger and two freight cars. The cost OF
the railroad was $4,000 per mile

PaddOck,s DISCHARGES.

The Paddock-Livingston trial., which
occupied more than two days, was con-
cluded Wednesday by the discharge of the
prisoner from custody, Judge Corey be-
lieving there was no good and sufficient
reason for Indictment. A verbatim, copy
Of the testimony taken during the trial
has been forwarded by Judge Corey to
Judge Campbell, vino will undoubtedly
sanction the decision. The facts, of the
case, Us elicited at the trial, are sulsLan-
TALLY as follows: 1t seems that there had
been dispute or quarrel in regard to
Paddock's cattle trespassing upon Living
ston's premises and growing crops, and on
Sunday, the 18th inst, Mr.. Livingston,
the deceased, rode up to the home Of Mr..
Paddock on horseback, armed with a gun,
with the determination, as he himself
had previously asserted, TO shoot Mr. P. on
sight. Realizing the situation at a glance,
and having been warned by several par
ties that Livingston was desperate char
acter, Mr.. P. took his gun from, it's rack
or case and stepping to the window, told
Livingston to leave the premises: He re-
fusing to do so, and making hostile
demonstrations, Mr.. Paddock fired killing
him almost instantly. The people gener-
ally sympathize with the familYof the de-
ceased, who were so. suddenlT deprived
of husband and father, but cannot but feel
that Mr.. Paddock was justified In the act,

Messrs. Steele and Jewell, proprietors of
