wrecks Come Like Luck.

"It is strange fact that when there Is a wreck on a railroad or street car sys- tenn that sesond will follow In day or fwo' said well-known street railway man last night.
 whenever we have one wreck on our system we always look for second within the next sixty hours, and l don't remember when it ever failed. The same is true of accidents of all kinds. If car strikes and kills any one we expect a second death and are never agreeahly disappointed.
 T can explain this fact in but one way. When a wreck occurs or a car runs over and kills any one 1t seems to unnerve the employees of the system, who always fear an accident. It takes two or three days for them to settle down, and then they are all right until another wreck occurs, when some of them set rattled and trouble comes again.

EventfuI career of PuIaskI Leeds.

Pulaski Leeds' said the old railroad manager, had an eventful life. and It's tragic ending is not only a shock to everybody but he was the last man that imagined would ever be shot by an em- ploye. he was so universally popular with all
 "The story of his first entrance into railroad life Is romantic. He was flag man, but for the one occasion only. Leeds lived near New Haven, and as his parents were poor he never hoped to be able to get college education, although it was the ambition of his life when a boy. One day, when he was about seven teen years old, he was walking with younger brother along the railroad track when he came to a curve In short cut at the end of a hill. From where he stood he could see the track in both directions, although a train coming from one diree- tion could not be seen by the engineer of a train coming the other way. He saw two trains approaching at such distances that they would probably meet where he stood. With presence of mind that was one of hi- characteristics he remembered that he wore a red undershirt, and strip ping to the buff quick as thought, he began to wave 1t frantically from posi- ton visible to both engineers. The trains came to a stop just in time to avert a head-on collision. One of the trains was freight. but the other was a special carrying the directors of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad. The grateful directors showed their apprecia- ton by sending him to Yale college. and the road

STATES AND STATUES.
A Matter That Should Be Left to Each
 State to Determine.

From the Baltimore Sun CDem)
 Congressman Lacey of Iowa has is- sued his edict that the statue of Gen. eral Lee shall not go into the national capitol He not only tells Virginia what statue she shall not present to accompany the one of Washington. which is already there, but he does more. He is so kind and condescend- ing as to make a selection for the Old Dominion. Virginia, says MT Lacey, should place statue of President Mon- roe in the capitol, because President Monroe's name is fin the mouth of every loyal American, north and south, and household word in every part of the globe connected with living doctrine on which we all unite"
 Virginia should be permitted to place in Statuary Hall in the capitol the statues of her two greatest sons. Other states enjoy that privilege, and there is no reason why it should be with held from the Mother of Presidents. Virginia's two greatest sons were Washington and Lee. And Lee showed his love for his mother state by a greater sacrifice than any of her other great men made. He not only distin- guished himself by fighting for Vir- ginia, but he gave the best years of his life to the United States. He won such fame in the Mexican war and rendered such an able and faithful service to the United States that at the beginning of the civil war he was deemed the best-equipped soldier in the army to be commander-in-chief of the federal forces.
 But in one respect MT. Lacey is right. There should be statue of President Monroe in Washington, and it should be erected by the United
