it was a danger signal displayed on the
tender Of locomotive. He called for
the boys to jump and all did so except

struck him in the back and head and
hesswas picked up unconscious. All
the others escaped unhurt.

The train was running about Is mile!

Ths TnclLIa Weed.

Tumble weeds spread themselves ii
wholesale fashion. Instead CT sending
the separate seeds out into the world
with wings or hairs to carry them, the
whole plant breaks off near the root,
when these are ripe, and goes rolling
along the sround before the wind The
bare, sun scorched deserts Of the great
west produce several tumble weeds, and
there are some III the prairie region. 1t
is natural that they should be most
abundant where there are 10 hills nor
trees TO stop them in their course. But
we have one tumble weed IN the east
the old witch grass, so called maybe be-
cause it rides the wind like an old bel
dame. In September this grass spreads
it's head, OR particle, with hairlike, pnr-
pie branches, in every sandy field. When
the seeds are ripe, the plants are blown
across the field, often piling up in masses
| along fences and hedgerows. AS might
be expected, the hair grass, which has
SO effective way Of spreading itself, Is
found throughout the United States
from ocean to ocean. Thomas d. hear'
