The Extraordinary Occurrence ON .
Railway.
From the St. James Gazette.
The occurrence on the Holyhead line Of the
driver and stOker of train falling asl eep while
on duty and the extraordinary escape of the
Irish mail last week was even more serious than
was reported. 1t would appear that the signal
man at Llandudno saved the Irish mail passen-
gers on Tuesday night from what might have
proved a terrible fate. The signalman at the
junction received a message from the signalman
at Conway, the next station toward HOlyhead
that light engine was coming. The junction
signalman, knowing that the Irish mail was due
decided to run the engine into siding in order
to permit the express to pass. He accordingly
put up all the signals against the light engine;
but to his extreme establishment the engine
came straight lnt0 the junction at full speed,
swept round the corner, dashing past all the
danger signals, and disappeared from view down
the line toward Chester. moments reflection
convinced the signalman that both driver and
stoker must be asleep. Heaccordingly wired to
the Colwyn Bay station signalman: Engine
coming; driver asleep; put fog signals on line !"
The man at COlWyn Bay was equally prompt
for, running out Of his box, he had hardly time
to lay number OF signals when the engine
came laundering along, and an explosion fol-
lowed which efiectually awoke the men. The
engine was stopped and run back into siding.
when 1t was discovered that the fire had gone
out, that the water had disappeared from the
boiler, and that the men had been asleep some
time. Inquiry resulted In their immediate dis
charge. They had been fifteen hours on duty.

Fruit Along the Ronds.

The hints OF the Germantown Telegraph upon
the advantage Of planting fruit trees along the
dusty rOadsides, is commended to the attention
of the pomologist, and the writer says that
there is generally an abundance Of fruit, and
this abundance is usually in proportion to the
quantity of dust. Not only is the fruit abund-
ant, but the leaves are generally remarkably
healthy; and We do not remember an instance
of blighted or seriously diseased tree, when
they have been covered with roadside dust
IL there are any doubters let them see for them
selves. This has been frequently noted IN
regard to old pear-trees In gardens along road
sides; but as to the cherry. IL is very striking
especially low-headed pie cherries, which are
more easily covered with dust than trees of
larger size. The trees do not seem to mind 1t In
the least.
We do not pretend to account for this curious
fact, but rest with simply stating 1t. II IL
supposed that the plant breathes through It's
leaves-hOw ii does this when covered with
dust 1t is not for us to say. 1t may be that
the minute insects which crowd on fruit-tree
generally don't like dust; indeed. people do say
that it is to destroy insects that chickens so love
to cover themselves with dust Again some
people have notion that many fruit diseases
come from minute fungi, which develop on the
leaves and branches and soon cover the whole
surface, destroying tissues as they go. 1t may
be that absolutely dry dust falling On these
minute juicy little plants. may suck the moist
ure out Of them, and leave them high and dry.
We do not pretend to discuss any OF these prop
ositions; at the same time, II Is curious to note
that these dust-covercd fellows should do 60
well.

To the Editor Of TIE EVENING STAR:
Permit me. a stranger passing through your

Washington is beautiful city, is an old story

OF it is that certain class of people (and that

strained by any police force. and yet are so
orderly. Dogs also wander about with perfect
freedom through the very dark streets at 9 or

in New York is compulsory, and would be in
