did anybody suppose that the punish

atone for tho loss of life and limb or
restore the property? There is only
one effect that such treatment of
children can have, and that is TO
make liars of them. Suppose some

should be the cause of an accident
does anybody suppose that she
would look n lot of men square in

it resulted seriously, was in itself
innocent child's play in which no
harm was intended nor expected, but
what the grand mother did in carry

barbarian that has sneaked its way
down from the dark ages.

JUST in FUN
LITTLE GIRL WRECKS N. & W.
PASSENGER TRAIN.
Places Nut on Track TO See Train
Mash 1t Admits Her Guilt.

ROANOKE, Va, Oct. 3.-Detec-
tives today arrested Gussic Loving,
ten year old white girl at her home
near Dunlow, w. Va, charged with
wrecking Norfolk & Western
passenger train At that point yester-
day. The girl admits her guilt and
SAID she put nut on tire track ''iust
for fun, To see the train mash it,"
We learn that the detective did
not arrest the little girl, as stated
above, but that he told her mother
she ought to punish the child and
that the woman gave her "sound
thrashing. "-KENoyA REPoRrER.
1t seems that anumber of children
had been placing pins and nails on
the track to have them flattened, and
the child little dreaming of the
awful consequences that would fol-
low her action, had placed the nut
on the rail TO have it tlattened, be-
lieving that the process would con-
vert it into ring that could be worn
around the neck.
The child is described az a "blue
eyed, well dressed little girl; very
retty and intelligent.
u In speaking Of the matter ritter
he Huntington Dispatch says:
Ifter consultation the railway
y Ns decided not to institute
cri5iSal proceedings, upon the con
ditiosSthat the child's parents ad.
minister corporal punishment. This
sentence was complied with in the
presence of $50 people. The child
stood the ordeal bravely, but did
not seem TO realize the awful gravity
of her act"
Following is what J. n. Potts,
another writer, has to say in
regard to the action of the rail.

that in this enlightened country
