''well I know" with a great deal of
emphasis on the a." Il know just
as som as the teacher speaks to me
what she is going to be-" 1t seemed
so strange to hear such a sentiment
come from the lips of a little child
and she was 80 very earnest, too.
One would have thought she was
twice her age If they had not seen
her. So teachers, 1t depends upon
your ourselves, your words and ac-

DONGAN WAS THERE.

Roundsman Who Was Injured Here
in EatontOwn Wreck.
In the list of anne of the pas
sengers that were injured in the
wreck of the Atlantic City Filler on
the Central Railroad of New Jersey
Monday morning was that of William
]. Dongan, of 304 Schermerhorn
street, Brooklyn, who owns a place
at Barnegat, and who was on his way
home from that place at the time OF
the accident. Mr.. Dongan was seated
in the second car and was badly cut
on the right hand and also was hurt
about the right leg.
In speaking of the wreck to a
NEWS reporter, yesterday, while on
a visit to the station house in town,
he said the car that he vas in was
damned against the forward and rear
cars so tight that he and the rest of
the passengers were forced to jump
from the windows, and when he land
ed he was right beside the engineer
of the Inflated train, and the first
question he was asked by him was:
"How many are killed." He said 1t
was only a miracle that more were
not killed and injured.
Mr.. Dongan was formally a rounds
man, attached to the eightieth sub
precinct in Broadway and was retir-
ed by Police Commissioners Bingham
on half pay June 1 for physical dis
ability from injuries which he receiv-
ed in trying to stop a team of runa-
way horses in Amboy avenue last
summer, during which he was nearly
killed. He has never regained the
use of his left arm since that time
and this latest mishap seems that
bad luck is pursuing him wherever
he goes.

the three houses from the property
that was purchased by S. N, Broder-
