 When Engine Han Inte .t Timber Car.

Selma, Feb. fs.--tspeoial )--what
 came near proving to be a dissstrous wreck occurred in dense for on tho
 Mobile division of the Southern Rail-
 road about o'clock this morniu9
 when the regular work train and an
 extra freight collided.
 No one was hurt except the negro fireman on the extra freight train who. in Jumping from his engine. fell through 6 trestle and sprained his | ankles The wreck was caused prin- cfpally by the train crew of the work train trying to save several cars of freight Sa
 The work train in charge of Engln- ! eer Sullivan put up at Thomasvifle
 last night. Shortly afterwards the
 regular north bound freight train will. It's crew, which d been on the road
 into Thomasville. During the early morning fire was discovered in some seed houses close to the track and tho crew of the freight train made an att
 tempt to move their train which was
 on a side track close to where the . flat car loaded with mammoth
 bridge timbers, was backed out on the main line and was attempting to pull the long line of freight cars out ?f
 through the dense fog which had set- tied, there was seen the headlight or an approaching engine.
 The train crew quickly began to signal. to tho approaching train which
 was an extra northbound freight But
 the signals were not seen quick
 enough by Engineer Alexander of the northbound train and his engine crashed into the loaded car of heavy brid. timbers. The engine was badly
 wrecked but no one except the negro
 fireman was injured. The engineer of the work train was also badly smasneu up.
 Five cars loaded with hay, cotton and various merchandise were de-
 stroyed by the burning of the seed
 houses and the loss will reach in the
 neighborhood of $f0.0o0.
 ' 1t is supposed that there was 2 scrowd of crap shooters& in the seed
 house. during the night a~A that one of them threw a lighted cigar or cfg- arette which casused tho fire.

used to designate the hair on the up per lip. Scott more than once speaks of ''whiskers on the upper lip and so does Defoe in Robinson Crusoe.
 Johnson defined "whisker" as the hair growing on the upper lip or cheek unshaven; a mustachio." It seems to have taken it's name from fancied resemb blance to small brush, to "whisk" properly meaning to sweep, and a "whisker" having been par ticular kind of feather brush-also, in the slang of a former time, a switch or rod In the seventeenth century "whisker' signifed among other things a brazen lie, 'whopper."

BABY ETCHED TERRIBLY.
Skin-Doctors No Avail-Cured by Cuticura Remedies.

My baby's face and neck were GOV cred with itching skin similar to ecze- ma, and she suffered terribly for over a year. l took her to number of doc tors, and also to different colleges, to no avail Then Cuticura Remedies were recommended to me by Miss G.. I did not use it at first, as I had tried so many other remedies without any favorable results. At last I tried Cuti- cura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Resolvent Pills, and to my surprise noticed an improvement. After using three boxes of the Cuti- cura Ointment, together with the Soap and Pills, I am pleased to say she is altogether a different child and the picture of health. Mrs. A. c. Brestlin, I'll N.

When his plan of life failed, he became drill in Chicago, and there formed a company that was recognized as the best drilled company in America When Lincoln became president, Els worth was permitted. to accompany him to Washington as one of his suite After the inauguration the president made the young man a second lieuten ant of dragoons. The call for volun teers led him to hasten to New York, where in three days he had 2,200 names on his recruiting list. Of these he carefully selected a regiment of HOO, who chose him as their colonel and, bearing half dozen beautiful licly donated by Mrs. Astor), followed him to Washington, where they were mustered into the service among the earliest volunteers for the term of three years. At the head of his regi ment, Col Ellsworth entered Alexan. dria on the morning of May 24, 1861 The colonel remembered the rebel flag that had been floating for weeks over the Marshall house, an insulting de fiance to tho national capital. He was seized with an ambition to take the emblem of secession down with his own hands. This he did, but when de scending the narrow stairway with the flag in his hand, he was shot dead. The colonel was buried with imposing hoaors from the former east room oi the executive mansion at Washington.
