 BIRMINaHAM, Ala, Dec. 14.-This morn- ing, near Eastaliago, small station fifty miles east of here, on the Georgia Pacific railroad, Miss Betsy Emmons was walking along the track when she discovered that the spikes had been drawn and rail moved. Just as she made the discovery Miss Em- uno,s heard the roar of an approaching pas- ssngsr train, which was running at high speed. She knew the train would be wrecked if she did not stop 1t, and she did not hesi- tate an instant. She wore red flannel pet tieoat, and hastily tearing 1t of, ran toward the approaching train, waving the garment across the track. The engineer saw tho sig- nal in time to stop the train. When the pas. sengers learned of their narrow escape and Miss Emmons' coolness they at onos made up . handsome purse and presented it to her.

 The strength of the general market to-day was due to the covering of short contracts. Traders were unwilling to so home short of the market in view of it's pronounced stubbornness, the undenia- bly, large short interest," and the increasing ease of money. The trading in Sugar Trust certificates was again the most interesting feature They were twice active any stock the regular list and rose per cent. Nobody took any stock in the ru- nor that Claus Spreckels was now ready to swap his Philadelphia refinery for the San Francisco establishment owned by the Trust, but there was continued accumulatiens of long stock and few shorts covered There was squirt of per cent In tho long-neglected Mssouri, Kansas & Texas shares based on Q belief that the conflicting interests ot the boadholders last been adjusted aud that the reorganization will soon be an accomplished fact. St.Paul, Chicago Gas and New England were also conspieuously buoy ant and there was sharp further recovery in the Chicago Eastern Illinois shares, which were driven down to absurdly low prices by the traders this week.

A TAILon,s GOOD FORTUNH.


 He Wins Fifteen Thousand Dollars in
 she Louisiana state Lottery.
 Lightning-not political, but fnanoial- struck ia the region of Baltimore rather heavily at the last drawing of the Louisiana State Lottery. Besides the numerous small prizes of five, ten and twenty dollars drawn by Baltimorsans, MT. Joseph Kase, tailor living at 424 North Castle street, had the extremely good fortune to hold one-twentieth of ticket e3-whieh entitled him to fifteen thousand dollars. It goes without saying that Nr. Kass is highly elatsd over his good fortune.
 MT. Kass said yesterday that he had been in tho habit of buying tickets in the lottery for the past two years. In all that time he has not missed drawing some prize. They were in small sums, however, and only en- oouraged him to continue courting Dame Fortune. Just what to do with the money Mir. Kass Is undecided.
 The fortunate gentleman is native of Germany, but has been living in Baltimore for twenty years. He has small tailoring establishments in the rear of his dwelling and has been employed by the leading elothisrs of this oity.-Baltimors (Nd.) Herald, Dec. Sd.
