plicable sounds were heard for
several days issuing from the
earth, The sounds varied from
something like the booming of can

whistles and seemed to come from
a forest skirting the commune. In
this forest, where the terrified
peasantry gathered in expecta-
tion of some calamity, the earth
was seen to heave necessarily.
Gradually huge cracks appeared,
water was seen, at last the earth

rose, and there appeared a new

Railway Accidents.

Granting that there is a greater
mileage Of railroad in this coun-
try, the .prOporti6nate travel is
probably greater in England than
here. What, then, is the explana,
ton of the fewer fatal accidents,
or, rather, the almost total lack Of
accidents in that country as com
pared with.the frightful mortality
IN our American roads? The ex-
act spluti6ni Il probably not easy,
but the most natural explanation
that willGOme to mind is that the
British roads are better managed
and that'they are held to a much
s%tricter accountability by the au-
thOrities. Another reason also is
the total absence of all grade
rrossings'in England and the uni
versal employment of the best of
safety devices and signals, the
block signal system being practic-
ally uniyersal.-N. O. Picayune.
