Diamond Studded Streets.

Perhaps the most interesting fact in
connection with Kimberly, the Diamond
City, is the street washing" and some
of the debris washers have done very
we'll. The washing" consists of over.
hauling the earth for diamonds.
At nearly every meeting of tie Dor
ough council applications for permits
sion to wash streets, or portions Of
streets, are received. The would be
washer has to obtain the consent Of per-
sons resident in the street or road, to
put the latter into sound repair again
and pay 1.-THE to the municipality in
the shape of 10 per cent on his gross
finds. Last year 5000 was paid to the
municipality in this way.
In the early days of the diamond
fields the ground was washed in very
primitive style, many diamonds being
thrown away in the debris, as it is call
ed. This debris was subsequently used
for street making purposes, and now,
years after, with better machinery at
their disposal, people find it pays to
'wash the streets. Cape Times.

The people at the station were be-
numbed With fright. They stared with
horror-striczen faces at the oncoming
engine as some great demon hurrying
to destroy the excursion train with its
! load of human freight. -Paralyzed with
fear they could neither move nor call
aloud.
In the whole crowd there was but one
who could think and act. He was a
slender, pale-faced boy, and he rushed
Up the track towards the oncoming
train.
Git out. git out" his shrill voice

they saw what he meant. So down the
men jumped from the engine, while the
boy ran on to the switch. His hands
seemed paralyzed, so long did it appear
before he forced il open, then ne
stepped back Just as the way freight
rushed by and ran full tilt into the up
freight. There was tremendous
crash. The engine of the way freight
rode over the other and smashed it into
fragments. Then il sat down on its
own cab with the forward truck in the
air and one wheel whirling round like
a milestone. The following cars piled
up in great heap. and over it all rose
q great cloud of dust.
The terrified eXcursionists scrambled
from their own train, rushed over to
the wreck and stood COR time in
speechless horror and amaZem n. Thel

fucker had 80 cars behind him, so he
climbed in from the window and gave
the engine a bit more steam. Down
the sag before Habersham hill the train
Numbered, gaining momentum every
second. The engineer was getting
ready for the rise TO the top of the
hill, and he meant to make the finest
plunge down the other side that ever
had been made. He meant TO leave
the agent at Belair dumb with aston
ishment, and be half way to Wheeless
before the operator could telegraph to
the next station to hold the up freight.
At the top of the hill he pulled the
throttle out, hooked the lever up to
the top of the gauge, and down Haber-
sham hill he rOared, under a full head
of steam.
But the agent at Brazelta had not
caught the up freight at Whse,ess. and
when Yucker began to plunge down
Hdbersham hill it was waiting for him
at the bottom. That would have been
all right. for the way freight had gone
by dozens of times under just such cir
cumstanoes. but there was the Sunday
school excursion running special. and
that was why the agent ut BraZelia had
tried so desperately to stop the needless
engineer.
The special waited on the main line
with the up freight on the siding when
the way freight came they were TO
saw by" But they had not reckoned
how it would come. With the engine
leaping and luTching over the rails, the
Loaded cars rocking and Keeling, the
train shot down the frightful grade.
The roar warned the men at the station
of the impending danger but Yucker
was engrossed in contemplation Of the
landscape. while his fireman sat with
his back to the cab.
