An excellent example of the working
of air brakes was afforded those who
were at the union station this morn

some excitement until the cause was
known A freight train was passing
the union station, and while in front
of the depot one of the air hose,
| which connected two of the cars, ex-
| ploded, with a report like that of a
pistol shot. The releasing Of the air
at once set the brakes on the entire
train, and it was brought to a sud-
