A horrible accident occurred yester-
day at Glencoe, a small town west of

found the remains of a man horribly
mangled and dead.
The remains were taken to the sta

those of Thomas STREET, a miner of that
place. Nothing could be learned as to
how the accident occurred, but the i'm
preston is that he was trying to board
the train and was thrown under the
wheels, as this train goes at a high rate
of speed. No information as to fam
lily or home could be learned.

The Farewells

AZ EaTtNeiAs
to teachers and alma mater.
After a selection by the orchestra
the Rev. c. E. Clark, pastor. of the
Thomson NJ. E. church, delivered an
address to the class. He remarked
facetiously that be feared on account
of the lateness Of the hour he might
make a speech which would greatly
move the audience. He said it was
hardly necessary for him to congratu-
late the class, the teachers, and sup
erintendent. Addressing the class, he
reminded the graduates that their work
is not done. He told them they had
acquired a theoretical knowledge, and
to make a practical application would
be their task. He urged them. with
the Genet of earnest, honest endeav-
or to see that the foundation for their
future is firm and sound. He. criticiz-
ed the old idea of fatalism, that a man
is made by his circumstances, and
said that the greatest men are those
who have succeeded in spite of their
circumstances. He urged the class %
get out OF the vantage ground upon
which they start, all that there is in
1t for them. He advised them to make
a careful, intelligent, discriminating
study of literature.
He urged the graduates to get the
proper idea of a well poised, symmet-
rical life. He deprecated the tendency
TO concentrate the efforts upon a GER
tain faculty early in life. at the ex-
| pense of other faculties. a fault which
is responsible for narrowness of mind
and vision.
He advised the class to not only APP
| ply themselves and to take a broad
view of life and facts but to endeayor
TO be factors in the community in
which they reside.
The Rev. Mr.. Clark was listened to
very attentively by the class. When
he concluded the diplomas were pre-
sented by superintendent w. H. And
erson. The class song was then rem
dered. The words by Roy Anderson
were arranged to the music of "Vive
PAmour-" The exercises closed with
benediction by Mr.. Clarke.&

Test Car.

The B. & o. has introduced test or
speed car, for the purpose of schedule
making on its lines. The speed OF all
fast and local trains are taker by means
of this car. The purpose is to distribute
the time OF all trains between all stations
on better and more equal basis.
The present schedule is not entirely
satisfactory, and the test car is 10 remedy
these defects. The car is undoubtedly a
success up to this time, and will afford
much relief to the travelling ptblic by a
better schedule. 1t viii enable the time
table to be adjusted so that the trains will

1t is und ,rstood that the idea was
favored by General Manager Underwood

A WONDERFUL. TOP.
II Is Capable of Spinning More Than
Forty-three Minutes.

A marvellous top, capable of spinning
forty-three and one-half minutes and
then remaining erect and still, has been
constructed by Prof. Charles Jacobus,
for many years superintendent of the
New Brunswick, N. j.. public schools,
but now of Springfield, Mass. The in
ventor of this top guards 1t carefully
and never allows 1t to pass out of his
hands. He has spun 1t scores of times
before scientists in New York, Phila-
delphia and many other cities. He
spun it short time ago before the
Boston Society of Civil Engineers. who
devoted one hour to watching 1t. The
inventor calls ii a scientific top, and
when it Is not in use he locks it up in a
case and carries the key with him.
The wonderful top is made of bronze
and looks like the small sized humming
top the boys buy in the stores for five
cents. II was constructed under the
direction of Prof. Jacobus, who had
the pieces made by several different
mechanics. The top is spun by a
string, and the inventor always spins
IL on a plate. He has a small piece of
bronze. which he places over the upper
end Of the rod while he winds the cord
around the same. as is done in a hum
ming top; then he places 1t on the
plate. holds 1t firmly by the little
bronze attachment at the head and
pulls the string. AS the string leaves
the top he removes the attachment
suddenly and the top spins on.
The point of the top. upon which 1t
spins, is about as large as the head of
a small needle. and 1t is 50 true and
delicate that the resistance is kept at a
minimum. The inside OF the top is so
balanced that when the top ceases TO
revolve it will remain erect, unless 1t
is Jared. The rod that runs through
the centre is about an eighth of an
inch in diameter and five inches from
the sharp point on the bottom to the
small cap on the head. The top body
is three inches In diameter.
The whole secret of the top is be-
lieved to be In the perfect balance and
the weights inside of the bronze body
The entire top weighs about four
ounces. and is wound with about ten
inches of string.
When Prof. Jacobus lectures before
schools on educational institutions he
has a habit Of spinning the top and
