People who travel nowadays in Pullman

hand when he madea trip on the railroad.
The rails then were known as strap rails,
fiat pieces of iron spiked down to the
wooden beams laid along the track. Every
now and then wheel of a car would tear
one end of n rail loose and it would fly up
through the bottom of the car and then
smash its way through, killing anybody
it struck and breaking the wood work OF
the car all TO pieces

days on n road running between Cincin-

these rails broke through my car. struck

dodge it, but it seemed TO bend all over
the car in "A second, aud it caught my
breethes, tearing them clear OF one leg.
II it had struck my body would have
been nailed to the roof by it, as 1t went
on out that way. Sometimes these broken
rails threw the train off the track, but
generally the cars bowled merrily along
over the break, and the passengers were
so accustomed to being shaken up that
they didn't know that anything extraor-
binary had happened until some one told
them. Joseph Temple in Globe-Demo-
