Bow Saved the Train.

The Southern passenger tram due
here at S:55 O'Clock last night had a
narrow escape from being wrecked on a
trestle near Mallow, a short distance west
of this city. A mule had attempted to
cross the trestle at Taylor's run, and had
become wedged between the ties. Two
men and thirteen year old boy dis
covered the animal, but were unable to
release it. They remembered that the
southern train, already an hour late, had
not passed, and the boy ran to signal
tower but found no one there. lie then
went to the house of the day operator
who fastened to the tower and set the
signals. In the meanwhile neighbors
had gathered and extricated the animal
A similar accident occurred recently
but in the day time, when horse was
caught on the trestle over the same run,
but on the R., F. K P. road. Then the
train was stopped and the passengers
extricated the horse.

BRAKEMAN KILLED.
Morris johnson, Brakeman on South-
ern Railway, Victim of Fatal Ac-
cideut.

Morris johnson, Brakeman on South
ern Railway, Victim of Fatal Ac-
cident.
A Young man named Morris johnson,
brakeman on the Southern Railway,
was the victim of a terrible accident at
600 o'clock this morning on Union
street. few feet south of Wolfe. The
back part of his head was crushed OF
and the unfortunate mans brains scat
tered on the railway track for distance
of twenty or thirty feet.
A train crew was engaged in shifting
cars Mt the time and car was about to
be run into the b. q 0. yard.
II seems that it was the intention of
the crew to make "hying switch, "
but Johnson had told his companions
that the brake was defective, when 1t
was determined to back the car into the
b. & O. yard. Johnson had applied
the brake and was in the act of descend
ing when he was seen to fall on the
track. The engine and tender passed
over the unfortunate man and dragged
him between so and 60 feet before the
engine could be stopped.
The sight was sickening. The back
of the head had been carried away, but
the face was intact, while brains were
spattered over rails and ties.
DIR. Purvis, the coroner, was notified
and he made arrangements for holding
an inquest tomorrow morning at eleven
o'clock. The body in the meantime
was removed TO Domaine & Sons under
takers establishment.
The support of the brake rod-a
strap of iron which keeps it in p' sitlon-
was loose, a bolt having worked from
one side. 1t is thought that Johnson
trousers may have become entangled IN
the protruding end of the support anC
caused him to fall. Others think hi
reached for the iron hand-rail OH the
side of the car but missed it.
The deceased was native OF Nelson
county. He was unmarried and had
lived in Alexandra but short time.
His father and mother had recently
come here from Remington.

The Postomce.

Postmaster Crupper has succeeded in
having the pay of four of the clerks in
the city postofiice increased one hun
bred dollars a year. These were all
that were eligible, as the othes in the
office are now receiving the limit.
The plans for the enlargement of the
postoffice and custom house building are
now being revised, so as to bring the
cost within the Congressional appropria-
ton. The lowest bid was 81, 900 over
the appropriation, and the Treasury De-
partment officials think they can "cut
out" that amount by revision of the
plans. The proposed building will be a
handsome and conveniently arranged
structure.
