Railroads NotThoroughfares.

Many people do not realize that the
railroads have any rights at all which
they are bound to consider, but let
US think Il moment How can the rail
road companies he responsible for the
many, many, many deaths which occur
every year where the victim has been
walking on the railroad track when
run down by the train. Aren't these
tracks private property, aud why isn't
walking on them trespassing? Every
one knows the danger of making rail-
road tracks a thoroughfare, for no one
can tell at what second a freight train
may round the curve, even if the
schedules of passenger trains may be
rather accurately known? S. HOLSTER
jackson of Barre tried to get law
through the last legislature forbidding
people walking on the railroad tracks,
aud making it a misdemeanor with a
fine. Now the railroad commission
recommends the same thing. However,
this comes after a shocking death caused
by this common disregard of danger

THE FASTEST LIVING THING.

Probably the sWlttest Of all living
things Is the black swift, small bird

hour, or over twice at fast as the auto

maintained tor an hour the speed OF its

1t Ormond Beach.
The rapidity of the flight of binds is
very deceptive, and the a>eragp person
usually undrieStImates their speed. |
once asked ten persons how fast they
thought crows flew, aud six OF them said
about ten miles an hoar, and the re-
naming four about five. In reality the
crow travels from twenty-five to thirty
miles an hour, or as fast as the average
local passenger train.
Fast express trains often reach and
maintain the speed OF ninety miles an
hour for short distances, but the velocity
Of these greyhounds of the rail is
eclipsed by the common chimney swal-
low, which sometimes for hours main
Gains an average speed of from ninety to
one hundred miles all hour.
Ducks are among the swiftest tiving
birds. The nalIard aud piutail members
Of this family fly from forty to sixty
miles an hour, aud the teal with favor
able wind often reaches the astonishing
velocity of ninety to hundred miles an
hour, Several years ago, when going
from New York to Chicago, on the
engine OF one of the fastest trains, We
were spinning along the edge of long
marshy lake at about forty miles an
hour, when four ducks which had been
sitting in the water near the tracks took
fight just before the train came abreast
of them, and started off in the same
direction. "lIere's a chance for race !"
the engineer shouted as he drew out the
throttle. The ducks, frightened by the
roar OF the train, slowly gained on us,
GLOW fast are we going?" shouted in the
engineers ear. He held up five fingers,
and knew we were rolling along at
| fifty miles AN hour The trains speed
had increased to sixty-fve miles an
hour before we began to overhaul the
ducks; but they reached the end of the
| lake before we We're even with them
and then veered off and vanished as we
shot by.
Observation has shown that passeng-
er pigeon can travel one thousand miles
in a day, and the turtle doves which
people who live in the country often see
in the barnyards fly at the amazing rate
of fifty miles an hour, Carrier pigeons
in calm weather often travel from thirty
to fifty miles an hour.
