HAD MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.
WOMAN BOARDS A MOVING TRAIN
AT THE DEPOT THIS NOON.


An accident, or rather an occurrence.
took place at the depot shortly after noou
today, which, while presenting an amus-
ing side, might have resulted In q tragedy
Just as the 1910 train for Providence
started to pull out Of the depot a woman,
evidently laboring under excitement, app
peared on the scene with a child aged
about or 4 years.
The train had gained considerable head
way and the woman made frantic rush
for the platform of the last car and suc->
ceeded In swinging herself ON board, but
In the effort she lost her grasp of the child,
who fell between the tracks and cried
Justify. The mother joined in the chorus
from the rear platform of the train, and
Tor few seconds there was considerable
excitement, and by-standers thought that
some one was under the train.
About this time Assistant Baggage
Master MCGEE came to the rescue, and
taking the child I'm his arms, started for
the train which was rapidly gaining head.
way. 1t was nip and tuck, but the train
was getting the best of the race when tho
trouble was observed by some of the train
hands and the signal was given the engi<s
neer to stop.
The train was brought to a standstill bee
tween Broad and Dexter streets, and Mc-s
Gee, now pretty well out of breath, had
the satisfaction of placing the child in it's
mothers arms, and quiet once more
reigned In the vicinity of the station.

THE BOHEMIANS

A Number Of Performers Taking Part in
Last Nights Show Replaced.
''The Bohemians" appeared at the Opera
House last evening in varied bill. 1t was
indeed varied, and parts of it were good
and parts of it were not 30 good.
How good the last mentioned was may
be imagined from the fact that Manager
Spitz was the most Disguised man in Paw
tucket at the conclusion of the perform
ance, and he and Manager O'Neill put
their heads together and their conferences
resulted In the decision that five OF those
taking part in the performance will never
grace the footlights in Pawtucket again,
at least while the present management is
in control of the Opera House.
Wiley and Sanford, who open the bill
will be retained, and do fairly clever act.
Trixey Wade, who was formerly the SOU
brette of the "Pulse of New York." will
be again seen this evening in her chic rem
dering of popular melodies, interspersed
with dances.
The Verdi Quartette, in instrumental
selections, and Joyce and Phillips will
continue with the company. The re-
naming artists on the bill will be re-
placed by people who will no doubt be
acceptable to the patrons of the house,
among them being Fox and Ward, late OF
Primrose and West and the Durelle Twin
Sisters.

graph were unable to secure motor OF

The First Watch.

At first the watch was about the size Of
a dessert plate. 1t had weights and was
used as pocket clock" The earliest
known use Of the modern name occurs in
the record Of 1862, which mentions that
Edward vi had lone larum or watch Of
iron, the case being likewise of iron gilt
with two plummets Of lead" The first
watches may readily be supposed to have
been of rude execution. The first great i'm
provement, the substitution of springs for
weights, was in 1850. Tire earliest springs
We're not coiled, but only straight pieces Of
STEEL Early watches had only one hand,
and, being wound up twice a day, they
could not be expected to keep time nearer
than 10 or 90 minutes i'm the l2 hours.
The dials were Of silver or brass. The cases
had no crystals, but opened at the back
and front and were or inches in
diameter A plain watch cost the equiva-
lent OF 1000 in our currency, and after
one was ordered il took year to make 1t.
