o'clock last night, hrs. Pickles particu-
larly warned him of the danger OF leaving
his gas burning and the peril OF depend
ing upon the gas heater.
The young man replied that he was
going to bed directly, that he would not
need his stove and that after reading his
paper for few minutes he would turn
of his gas.
Nc McInness did not take his meals
In the house no attention was given to
the fact that he was not seen about
the house this morning.
At 1915 o'clock Mrs. Pickles went to
the rooms on the top floor. one OF which
McInness occupied. and detecting a
strong odor OF gas, opened McInness'
door.
She found the apartment filed with gas
that had flowed from the wide open side
bracket burner. McInness was dead
in bed, and on the floor was the paper
which he had been reading.
He had evidently read until he fell
asleep. The gas flame flickered. went out
and presently the flow being resumed
the sleeper was asphyxiated.
Medical Examiner Perkins was notified
and said that death had resulted from
accidental suffocation.

Jersey CENTRAL BREAKS RECORD.
harrisburg Flyer Runs 70 Miles In 10
Minutes.

A new speed record has been made on
the Central Railroad of New Jersey by
the east bound Harrisburg flyer, This
train ON February 18th made the run
from Phillipsburg. Pa, TO Jersey CITY,
distance OF seventy three miles, In sew
enty-eight minutes. The time consumed
included three stops. several siowoowns
for crossings and bridges.
Many miles were made at the rate OF
forty seconds to the mile. and II the train
had come through without stopping the
run would have been made in about sixty
six minutes.
The train, known to the public as the
Queen OF the Valley" leaves Harrisburg
daily at 8 a. m. 1t left February 18th on
time, and was held up twenty-five min
utes at Bethlehem Junction waiting for
the Philadelphia and Reading connection.
That delay caused the train to pull into
Phillipsburg behind time.
contended with Up Grade.
Engine 571 was drawing the train. with
Frank Eek at the throttle When Eek
drew out OF Phillipsburg he determined
10 make up some OF the lost time. There
is an up grade from Phillipsburg to
Hampton Junction. but Eek took X In
rush.
From Hampton Junction to North
Branch distance OF fifteen miles, the
run Is down the side OF a mountain, and
when that stretch was reached the train
fairly few Several miles were made on
this section az the rate OF thirty eight
seconds to the mile or in other words at
the rate Of s4.74 miles per hour. From
North Branch to Somerville. miles were
made I'm forty seconds.
stop was made at somerville for
passengers. and when the train pulled
out a good part Of the lost time had been
made up. Between Somerville and Plain
field there was some more fast running.
Another stop was made at Plainfield. and
a third stop at Elizabeth.
The run In from Elizabeth was neces-
sarily much slower. owing to the june
tions and switches at Eliza be Import. An
other cause Of delay at this point was
the fact that the draw I'm the bridge over
Newark Bay is being changed. The orders
there are for trains 10 cross the bridge
at that point Mt speed not exceeding
four miles an hour. The bridge In 1000
feet long and trains run slowly over II

Arrived Exactly on Time.
Owing TO the multiplicity OF switches
In the Jersey CentraIs yards which run
from Elizabethport 10 Jersey city, the
train proceeded slowly 10 the terminal
where II arrived at ~ rs. exactly on time
No preparation had been made for a
particularly fast run and Eek was not
looking TO make a record when he did IL.
His sole effort was to make up the time
lost at bethlehem Junction. The engine
which drew the train was formerly
compound that had been converted into
a simple. The drivers are seven feet I'm
