The Alloy Ktndergarten.

The ladies Of the W. C. T. U. who opened the
kindergarten for the little folks in Willow Tree
alley July are well pleased with the work &C
complished. There are two sessions held each
day. One opens at $50 Am. for the wee ones
ranging from three TO Eve years and continues
till 1890. When these are sent home another
company gathers whose ages range from Eve to
seven years. Forty in the aggregate thus
systematically taught all through the vacation.
and the contrast of the CHEEKY, well-ventilated
and cozily fitted rooms of the mission to the
hot and dirty alley, the childrens only play
ground near thsre. is something which 1t is
joy to contemplate. The sewing school In Will
low Tree alley, as in Clicks. Is well organized
and reported doing excellent work. Mrs
Shelton and Mira Barber are leading in this
line of practical benevolence. The larger girls
have most time to give to this branch of in
struction and they seem, indeed, determined to
learn to sew and help themselves. The evan
geiistic services are growing in interest. A mis-
sion Sunday school was organized Sunday
afternoon. Mr.. Clinton Smith was chosen sec
rotary and Mrs. Jeanette Ro5eman was elected
orgarist. The teachers were Mrs. ]. A. Taylor
and Miss Alice Taylor, Mrs. II. C. Reed, Mrs.
Runyan, Mrs Rose,uan and VIM. Smith. Miss
Hattie Homer OF Calvary Church took charge of
thirty little ones in the infant class in the ad-
joining room.

A MARROW ESCAPE.
An Engineers Presence Of Mind Saves

An Engineers Presence OF Mind Saves q
Street Car and Its Passenger.
Only the presence Of mind Of an engineer and
the quick response Of the air brakes controlled
by him prevented q terrible accident at 9Th
street and Maryland avenue this morning and
the loss of many lives.
About 7:30 this morning car No. 26 Of the
Belt line, occupied by about a dozen passen-
gers, reached 9Th street, going westward, Just
as the gatemen dropped the gates across Mary
land avenue 10 allow an engine to pass through
9Th street. The engine having passed the
gates were raised and the car started across 9Th
street Just ~ the driver started up his horses
train dashed into 9Th street from Virginia
avenue. The gateman Immediately dropped
his gates, the eastern one falling between the
driver of the car and his horses See
inS that he could not go back he
whipped his horses up, breaking of the gate.
The western gate, however. prevented him
from crossing. his car remaining on the 9Th
street tracks directly in the way of the coming
trnin- The engineer of the train, taking In the
perilous condition of the street car at glance,
instantly applied his air brakes. and fortunately
they were In perfect working condition. Never
theless. il was the tightest of shaves, for the
engine was finally brought to a standstill but
ten feet. from the street car. The car was An
opon one, and the passengers lost no time in
jumping from it. But according to the state
ment of one Of its passengers, an old railroad
man, made to a STAR reporter, had the air
brakes refused to work or had the engineer
been a second late in applying them the engine
would have plowed its way through the street
chr before one OF its passengers could have
jumped.
1t was stated to the reporter that there is no
electric signal in operation at the 6th street
crossing and that the gatemsn Is forced to de-
pend entirely upon his hearing and sight to in
form him of the approach of trains.
