TWO NARROW rscAPca.

~wo very narrow escapes from smash up
 we recently happened to the limited trains
 ming east from Chicago, and both oc-
 rged not very long ago. The first happened
 thin the first 100 miles out from this city
 tho train going east. IL was to meet c
 eight at . long siding out on prairie, mid
 Ay between stations. The freight ran into
 e siding in ample time to be out of the way
 2 the flying 'limited," |" and one of the brake men got off and went forward to the switch 70 be ready to open it as soon as the train mad gone by. He was very tired and sleepy from some cause, and sat down cl the switch beam, and almost immediately feel asleep. He was almost as quickly awak- ened by the laundering of the approaching train Why he did it he does no5 know to this day, but in his confusion he reached for the switch and turned it. Both engineers had their eyes fixed on the switch, as their custom is, and both in an in- stant saw the danger that threatened them. The one on the flying limited" quickly re- versed his engine and set his brakes, while the one on the freight turned on Q full head of steam to force his train backward. The brakeman also saw the danger as quickly as they did, but not quickly enough to correct his terrible mistake, and he had only time to jump to one side, to fall rather than scramble out of the way, when the passenger passed the switch and turned into the siding full on the freight. When tho switchman recovered be found that the two engines had gone together, but with force enough to only slightly damage their pilots. One of the en- gineers had jumped from his train after doing all he could to save it, and was slightly injured, but was able to take his position in the cab and proceed on his journey. The passengers probably do not know to this day why the train was stopped so suddenly.
 The other narrow escape also occurred on one of the eastern roads, and not much fur ther away from Chicago. It happened one foggy night when the fog was SO thick that engineers could scarcely see that their en- zines carried headlights The fast train from the east was ordered to make its best time to a certain station, where it would meet another train from the west, which was to be on the side track. The western train was given orders to go to another side track, some six miles further east, and pull in in time to be out of the way of the west!ound train. It made good time, reached the sid ing and pulled ill on it, and much to the sur prise of the trainrGen, especially the rear brakeman, who was standing on the rear platform, the other train dashed by just in time to graze the corner of the last car.- Chicago Times.

Mr.. and Mrs.

In earlier times the ordinary man
was simply William OF John that
Is 10 say he had merely a Christian
name without any kind Of handle"
before 1t or surname after 1t. Some
means of distinguishing one John or
one William from another John or
another William became necessary.
Nicknamcs derived from mans
trade or his dwelling place, or from
some personal popularity, were tack
ed on to their Christian names, and
plain John became John Smith.
As vet there We're no ''misters" IL
the land. Some John Smilh accum.
ulated more wealth than the bulk OF
his fellOws-became perhaps a land
ed proprietor or an employer of hir
ed labor. Then he began to be call
ed in the Norman French of the day
Ike ''maistre" of this place or that, OF
workmen or of those.
| In time the ''maistre" or "maister,
as it soon became, got tackled on be
fore his name, and he became Mais
ter Smith, and his wife was Maistress
Smith. But gradually the sense q
possession was lost sight of, and tn,
title was conferred upon any kind
by mere possession OF wealtl
or by holding some position of NOR,
or less consideration and importance

special excursion to that city on
Thursday, January oath. The Ma
tional Capital is one of the most in
teresting cities in the Union 1t Is
esteemed by many the most beautiful
city IN America, and the fact that 1t
is the seat of government and the
location of the handsomest public
buildings in the land, makes 1t in
teresting to every citizen
Both branches of Congress are
now in daily session, and in fact every
branch of the public service may be
seen in the actual work of conduct
ing the government. The public
buildings, embracing the Capitol,
White House, Treasury, State, War,
and Navy Departments, the great
Smithsonian Institution, the Nation.
Al Museum, are open to the public
every day, and offer a field for inter
est and study that cannot be excelled
anywhere. The great Washington
Monument, the highest memorial
shaft in the world, is in itself worth
trip to see.
The rates are unusually low, and
the limitation of the tickets ample
for n most pleasurable visit.

Sullivan County Wild Cats.

NEwBUEGH, y "A large number
Of wild cats are being killed IN Sulli-
van County this winter. Some idea
Of the number may be gathered when
the fact Is stated that IN the past
month fifteen wild cats have been left
Mt the County Treasurer office IN
Monticello, and this, Of course, does
not represent perhaps more than half
of the number killed, as the small
bounty of S1.50 does not draw custom
from remote parts Of the county.
Many Of these destructive beasts have
been killed under the very shadow
of the Monticello Courthouse-so some,
thing never known 10 have occurred
| before.
