Norfolk, Va, May IA curious state

ment by the Seaboard Air Line of its
connections with the six mile branch line
running from Pendleton to Murfrees
boro, n. G. Yesterday the s. A. l.. sent
a special to Murfreesboro to haul away
all of its property. Upon its return, the
track was torn up for several rails ahead
of the engine. This was repaired and the
special proceeded. 1t had not gone far.
however, before Il bridge was discovered
on fire. This was eXtinguished, but n
number of rails were so twisted and warp
ed that they had to be replaced with
loose rails from the car. When the
train was safely over these were taken
up and brought on to Portsmouth with
the rest of the stuff. In both cases red
danger lights had been put up and loss
of life was thereby prevented. The in
cident is unique in Southern railroading.

home, and to the surprise Of all she
began to get better from the first dose,
and half dozen dollar bottles cured her
sound and well. DR.. Kings New Dis

Colds is guaranteed to do this good work.
Try it. Free trial bottles at any drug
