Mr.. William T1apnell, Assistant Divi-
sion Engineer of the Valley Branch of the
B. & 0. Railroad had serious mishap
at Pleasant Valley Friday afternoon.
Mr.. Trapnell, who is native of Charles
Town and son of Mr.. Joseph Trapnell,
was coming down the Valley twelve
minutes in advance of passenger train
and was trying to make Harrlsonburg
ahead of that tram. His gasoline motor
YVES speeded to something like rs miles
an hour when the public-road crossing
just south of Pleasant Valley Depot was
reached. 1t is supposed that there was
mud on the rails or gravel on the track
too large for the light motor car to crush.
AT all events the car was derailed and
badly splintered. while Mr. Trapnell was
picked up stunned and bruised and with
his arm fractured near the elbow. A
few minutes later the injured man was
put aboard the northbound train and
taken to Harrisonburg. He was met by
DIR. B. Olhausen. the b. & o. surgeon at
that place, and taken to the Clarendon
hotel, where the broken bone was set.
Mr., Trapnel stood the ordeal well, and
was brought to his home in Winchester

Road Surveyor ]. NJ. Hendricks, of
Shepherdstown District, in a commune
cation to the Register, tells of the practi-
cal results of the operation of the stone
crusher now in use on the roads of that
District. Mr.. Hendricks hires an engine
two feeders, three men with carts and
horses, one man to spread the crushed
stone on the road, one man to help to
load, and pays for the coal used in running
the engine. The total cost of hauling,
crushing and spreading perch of stone
he finds to be less than 81 cents, The
crusher can reduce from so to IS perches
of stone in ten hours. the quantity being
dependent upon the size of the crushed
stone Much less time is required TO
crush stone coarse than is needed to
crush it fine Mr.. Hendricks states that
the work is done better by the crusher
than it can be done by hand. He also
believes that with proper road equip
ments the cost of hauling, crushing and
spreading can be reduced below the fig
ures he gives IN his report.
