Slde kill1ng Threo Men.
 NASHVILLE, N. C., June 1S.-A terri ble accident occurred on the Western North Carolina railroad on the southern side of Saluda mountain last night. From the apex of Saluda mountain to Melrose about three miles there is fall of fully 600 feet. Owing to this tre- mendous grade an engine is kept con- stantly there to help the trains up and down the mountain.
 On account of the heavy rains the track was very slippery last night, and when twelve-car coal train started down the mountain it soon got beyond control of the engineer with all brakes set. The speed quickened until tremendous rate was reached when suddenly the rails spread and the entire outfit plunged headlong down the mountain side.
 Engineers Smyra and Lunstall and Fireman Taylor were killed. Others of the crew escaped with broken bones and serious cOntusions.

Robbins. Peter to Pay Paul.

This expression arose thus: On the 11tt
of December. 1910, the abbey church OF
st. Peter, Westminster. was advanced tt
the dignity OF IA cathedral by letters pat
ent: but ten years later it was joined to
the diocese of London again, and many
of its estates appropriated to the repair,
of st. Pauls cathedral. One hundred
years later, in 1910, we find in "Outland-
ish Proverbs" selected by Mr.. George
Herbert, priest and poet of classic re
nown, the subject of one of Walton's
Lives, the proverb altered and set forth
as follows Give not ST. Peter SO much.
to leave ST. Paul nothing" This provert
is quoted by Francis Rabelais early in
the Sixteenth century. Upon the death
of William Pitt, earl of Chatham. in
177S, each of the metropolitan cemeteries
laid claim to the honor of burial. The
city of London argued that so great a
statesman as William Pitt should be
buried in St. Paurs, while parliament
took the ground that the dust of SO great
a man as he should come near to the
dust of kings, and that not to bury him
in Westminster abbey would again be
''robbing St. Peter to pay st. Paul.

To Extinguish Fire on Shipboard.

a novel and most effective apparatus
for eXtinguishing fires in ships holds
and for rapidly ventilating the holds in
emergencies has been brought out in
England. The scientific basis of the in
vention is the fact of carbonic oxide gas
being inimical to combustion. Fire is
eXtinguished in the ships hold by the
apparatus filling it rapidly with fumes
extracted from the boiler funnel, and
cooled and purified on their way to the
hold, vents being left for the expulsion
of fresh air contained in the hold. The
fumes are injected with such rapidity as
to produce an outflow through all vents
and Crevices in the hold and thus pre-
vent the ingress of fresh air, which would
otherwise occur.-New Orleans Plea

Leading men and women in superior
companies generally receive from $50 to
S125; old men and women, from $40 to
$50; Juveniles and comedians, from $40
to $50; specially and character actors,
from $50 to 500. The common run of
players get about $50 or $40, their sea-
son being in the neighborhood of forty
weeks. They lead precarious lives and
are apt to be more or less in debt. An
other compensation is the profound sat
isfaction, the positive delight, that all
players feel, as rule, in their profession.

The Mules Rosary.

A few years ago, while my father and
| were in southern California. we made
journey from Santa Barbara over to
the Santa lnex valley.
We had travelled several miles up the
stream thinking of no danger, when the
Spaniard suddenly halted, and, pointing
with his finger. told me to "look!" Di-
rectly in the trail and about 200 yards
ahead was a monstrous grizzly seated on
the body of a mule which he hSd killed
and having his forelegs ready for instant
action. He appeared to us as big as an
elephant. We were both armed, but pru-
dent, and did not care to attack bear of
such proportions, so we turned around
and went down out of his way, returned
to the trail after long detour, and con-
tinued to the home of my friend, the
mine owner.
Here we related our experience and
learned that the unfortunate mule be-
longed to Spaniard who worked in the
advised the Spanard to put the mule in
the corral and not let him run loose and
become the victim of a grizzly, but the
mans foresight was not equal to his
hindsight and he decided to pursue his
own course. He fortified the mule by
tying around his neck a string of beads
with a crucifix attached, and felt certain
that these would protect him from bears
and other dangers. In order to allow
the charms full play, he hobbled the an
imal and then turned him out to Craze.
The result we know.
While my friend and the Spaniard were
getting their guns and ammunition ready
| went up to the mine expecting to be
back in time to go with them and see the
battle with bruin. | followed them on
horseback, but arrived on the scene too
late for the fray. When l neared the
place l saw them coming back with the
skin of the bear lying across their horse.
The fight had been short, sharp and de-
cisive, and the conquering party had
found in the stomach of the bear a trophy

| believe these animals would have
had "a much less percentage of meat val
liable to butcher and consumer if corn
had entered largely into their grain ra-
ton.
s. The lesson is plainly taught that
early maturing breeds may be sold with
most profit, perhaps in one year, if
pushed from the start. The cost per
pound of production is greatly increased
with each succeeding year. Certainly
under most favorable conditions they
should reach the limit of profit at from
n to 30 months at latest. This may be
modified in ordinary feeding by the fact
that the yearling steer will need more
expensive food than older ones. The
latter will consume more rough fodder
profitable than the former
.. That the largest per cent of dress
ed to live weight does not always in
dictate the best quality of meat, nor the
most profitable carcass for the dealer or
consumer. So that the commonly re-
ceived opinion that the steer that shrinks
least in killing is the best for the butch
er must be more or less modified by
other conditions. - National Stockman
and Farmer.
