THE FASTEST TRAIN

Experience or the Train That Ran Away at no Miles an Hour.
 The papers Of the country recently contained dispatch to the effect that a runaway train on the Duluth & Iron Range railroad attained the frightful speed of no miles an hour before being wrecked. An interesting account of the wild ride is given by Superintend- ent Sydney T. Pope. oi the road. for merly Boston man. He wrote to a friend as follows:
 Il had been up the road the day be- fore, and coming back had my car hitched on the rear of the ore train. All the cars had been newly equipped with air-brakes, which worked all right until we reached the big hill which eX- tends back from here (rwo Harbors, Mich. about twelve miles. When we were about three miles from the sum- nit the air gave out and the train ran away. l was asleep at the time it started, and when we had gone about three miles the conductor woke me. We were going then faster than I ever rode before. and knowing that the train was sure to leave the track soon, we cut off our car. As soon as we set our brakes the train was out of sight like a flash. We followed up slowly, and in about twelve miles found them in u ditch. The cars evil dently left the track first and dragged back on the engine, stopping her with out throwing her off tho track very badly. The fireman and head brake man, both of whom were on the en- zine, were not even scratched. The engineer had one leg broken, but is doing well. It is a wonder that the engineer was not killed, as the rods on the engine broke and smashed the cab almost to pieces. He thinks he tell through the bottom of the cab just as the engine left the track. The ma chinery of the engine is, most of it, literally burnt up, owing to the fric- ton of the great speed, and the en- gineer says that the last part of tho way the lower part of the engine and the track looked like streak of fro. Of course it was only q guess, but 1 don't think the statc- ment made that the train was running l10 miles an hour was much cf an ex- aggeration. Two-third5 of the ears were a total wreck. If the speed was 100 miles an hour and the train went but one mile aud half after the car was cut off, it may be called a close call for the occupants of the car."-- Boston Letter.

WAYS OF wocDPEcXeRs.
thalr Fondneis of Nose Established by
 Simple Experiment.

Ihalr Fondneis of Noise Established by
 simple Experiment..
 lt is not always easy to tell why wookpecl1ers select one tree rather than others of the same. kind in the forest to begin their operations upon, or why they attack one side of tree and leave the other untouched. Com monly it will be found, no doubt. that worms or ants are concealed beneath the point selected, and that the wood- becker is guided in his search by the sense Of hearing.
 But there are circumstances which go to show that the woodpecker is not searching for food or guarded by and ants are dormant and silent, he will wake every echo for long dis tance around by tapping on dead, dry branch, or on the hollow trunk of tree. He does not then apply his ear to the bark to listen for the noise of worms beneath. but his object seems to be to make all the noise he can him. self.
 The yellow-hammer or golden winged woodpecker, is most easily studied, because he is most fearless and most nearly domestic in his habits. Where hollow trunks of trees are easi- ly found, he usually confines his at tentions to them; but in prairie regions he bores holes through hollow pillars, steeples of churches, and other structures which promise an opening into an interior.
 But there must be some other motive at times. for the writer has watched one of these birds working with un- usual racket upon one side of an oak board, where by moving six inches he was at perfect liberty to look over investigate whatever ne could be hop ing to reach by boring hole through it Indeed, it was perfectly immaterial upon which side of it he should begin operations
 One year the writer occupied house which had large hollow pillars in front. Some smooth, round holes in them, about two inches in diameter, indicat- ed what freedom the yellow-hammers had used and would use again. In the early spring they began operations, and it was impossible to sleep in that house after daybreak. The birds would not have been harmed for this, even if it had become necessary to remove tho house and pitch tent on the spot; but some experimenting was done at their expense.
 It was plain that noise was what they cared most for, as they would bore hole within a few inches of one which was already formed, and which would answer every possible purpose IS well as the new one. To try them os this point, small. empty cask. probably nail cask, was set bottom upwards on q carpenters bench in front Of the house.
 The yellow-hammers could make no progress if their intention was to per forato tho slaves, but they could get out of that empty cask a wonderful volume of noise. They quilted work on the pillars at once, but the joke of the thing became apparent when it was found that whereas they had before disturbed one household. they now woke up the whole town.
