railroad a fortnight ago, in which
Fireman John Lingo was killed, the
telegraph operator at Tasley has been
discharged from the services of the
Pennsylvania railroad, and Engineer
Dunn, who ran into the train ahead at
Parksley, has been held blameless and
restored to his run. At the investiga-
tion it was held that the operator had
violated a rigid rule of the system in
allowing train to pass Tasley two
minutes after one had just run by,

minutes must elapse between trains.

EASTER OBSERVANCE.

Easter observance at Owen church
this year was limited to a song service
by special choir in connection with
the Sunday school. An effort was
made to have more extended program
and special music for Easter had been
secured but the difficulty of securing
children to recite and take part in the
exercises as laid down proved insur-
mountable and the service was limited
to song only. The singers composing
the special choir were Misses Nina
Randle, Anna Deakins, Louise Hill,
Minetta Holland, Mrs. Gotham, Messrs.
Walter Randle, Chas. Curtis and W..
C. Hill Miss Grace Thomas was or
ganist. Miss Randle gave as solo,
NEARER My God to Thee. Easter
eggs were distributed and colored
prints awarded four children who had
not failed to be present at Sunday
school during the past three months.
At night services were held by the
pastor, Rev. R. H. Jewell, Rev. J.
W. W. Schiller, presiding elder,

ranged for the evening srevice, but a

NARROW ESCAPE.

A flock of sheep jumping from a
bank caused a runaway Saturday
which lacked little of turning out very
seriously.
T. r. Harris and daughter, Miss
Jennie, were returning from Jasper
when at the top of Lasater Hill near
their home flock of sheep jumped in
to the road from a bank, rendering
their mule ungovernable with fright.
Miss Harris was driving but became
alarmed and before her father could
get old of the reins she was pitched out
of the buggy, and the mule, having
turned around, started on a headlong
race down the HILL which is very
steep. Mr.. Harris was i'll a truly dan
gerous predicament, as not having
hold of the reins, he could do nothing
to stop the animal. He remained il
the buggy, net trying to jump, ant
finally managed to secure the reins anc
brought the animal to standstill neal
Tom Lasater s. It. was a very narrow
escape from serious injury, if no
death. Miss Harris was badly bruised
but no bones were broken.
