CARLYLE Removed,

An amusing and characteristic anec-
dote of Thomas Carlyle is given in Mrs.
Ross "Early Days Recalled" Mrs.
Ross, the daughter of Sir Alexander
and Lady Duff Gordon, enjoyed from
her earliest years the privilege of meet
ing many distinguished persons under
delightful conditions. Her mothers
beauty and wit, as we'll as her fathers
social and official rank, attracted men
and women eminent in art, letters and
politics to their home. The only visit
or whom little Janet cordially disliked
was Mr.. Thomas Carlyle. She says:
Zone afternoon my mother had dis
cussion with him on German litera-
ture; her extraordinary eloquence and
fire prevailing, Carlyle lost his temper.
and burst forth in his Scotch tongue:
You're just windbag, Lucie, you're
Just a windbag!' ! had been listening
with all my ears, and conceiving him to
be very rude, interrupted him by say
ing: My papa always says that men
should be civil to women for which
pert remark / got scolding from my
mother; but Mr.. Carlyle was not Of
Tended, and turning to her observed:
'Lucie, that child Of yours has an eye
for an inference - Youths Com
panion.

night at the Central Railroad compress,
in this city. Fourteen injured people,
all employees of the compress, have
been removed from the wreckage, but
it is thought others are beneath the
cotton and lumbe and, If so, they are
dead or will be before they can be ex-
tricated. Superintendent A. A. Cor
don was in the middle of the platform
experimenting the trucking of cotton
and went down in the midst of it all,
but by miraculous escape received
only bruises on the legs and arms.
Several employees are missing, and it is
feared they are beneath the wreck.
The platform was 20 feet high, $50 feet
long and l40 feet wide. Over 500 feet
gave way without warning, the sup.
ports being rotted.
