Gently ran into the depot at Woodstock,
Va, with a milch COW standing on the
pilot of the engine. placidly chewing her
cud as if nothing unusual had happened.
When about mile from the station the
engineer saw a cow on the track a short
distance ahead, and knowing that it was
impossible to stop the train, pulled the
throttle wide open and made rush at
her. To his surprise she was thrown up
and the engine pilot ran under her, where
she lodged and remained. When the rail
road hands lifted her off at the station
she was unlnjured and quietly walked off.

Saturday the body of an unknown man
was found in a secluded spot several
miles back of Wheeling. By his side lay
a revolver with four chambers empty,
and his head showed where two bullets
had entered. At first no means of iden-
tifying the body were discovered. but Ia
ter it was identified by friends as the body
of Fl. G. Wilson, the defaulting Superin-
tendent and Secretary of the Bellaire
water works. There was considerable
money on his person, a watch, and re-
turn ticket from Elm Grove, showing
that he must have shot himself about
November IS, the time of his disappear
ance from Bellaire. The body was frozen
stiff. and had evidently lain there for
twelve weeks At the time of his dis
appearance and discovery of mis- shortage,
it was intimated that possibly he had
taken his own life, but by most people
it was thought he had taken refuge in
Canada. His body was taken to his
home in Bellaire, and to Centerville on
Tuesday for interment.

backward or forward. They spend half

NOT EXACTLY NEWS.
A Few General Remarks and Famih-r
Reflections

Superstitions are remnants of barbara
ty-worse, they are remnants of the time
when men were not men. They are the
mental indications of the descent of man.
They should have no place in these fin de
steele years, but unhappily they are not
yet eliminated, and are on the other
hand amazingly prevalent. Nothing can
show this fact more fully than the as
tonishing aversion which is everywhere
shown to the number 13. Many people
hear the number with sinking heart.
They cannot be induced to sit at table
with just twelve other persons. They
would suffer even rather than that the
number should be made prominent in
their lives in any way.
