There was, last Friday evening, timely
aversion by woman, of what might have
been a terrible disaster to the b. & o. fast
express train No. 46, at Browns Crossing.
Some miscreant wrapped the rail with a
heavy chain and securely spiked it to the
ties and, no doubt, would have gained the
object desired had it not been for Mrs. Oscar
Blackford on her return home from her
brothers. She saw the obstruction and only
succeeded in removing it few minutes be-
fore the train came laundering along about
