French Railroad Forced 20 Refund
Excezs Fare-Done Voluntarily.
Cable dispatches report that the
French business men have awakened 70
the possibility OF making the railroads
refund their excess rates when fast
trains do not make the scheduled time,
says the New 1ork Times Recently a
merchant sued the International Wag-
gon-IEH Company for damages because
the Paris Madrid fast train. by which
be Travelled, was three hours late Ia ar
irving az It's destination
The train runs over the Paris-or-
leans aud Northern Of spain railroads,
but il is owned and operated by the
wsggon-Lits Company, which runs
trains De luxe and restaurant cars all
over Europe and IN Siberia The judge
Of the Eighth reimbursement in Paris
held thar tie company was bound %
conform to the time tables. which form
a contract made with the passenger.
In his opinion the nrst advantage in
taking fast trains was the certainty Of
speed and punctnaiity. which must be
assured to a passenger. and ordered
the company to pay damages, although
no actual damage was shown.
In this country Il has been the Gus
tom, since the FIRST expresses were put
on between New York and Chicago. TO
refund excess fares when the trains are
late. On the twenty-ihree-honr trains
Of the New York Central and Pennsyi-
vania railroads the Excess fare is s..
and a rebate Of 81 an hour is returned
to the passenger for every hour that
the train is late up TO So. which makes
the run t~wenty-eight hours. the sched-
ule for ordinary trains between the
two cities
The excess charge on the eighteen
hour trains to or from Chicago Is $40.
Of which 81 an hour is refunded to a
maximum Of 50. the remaining 81 being
considered a charge for the especially
luxurious appointments OF the train
In speaking yesterday OF the laws re-
latlng 10 passenger traffic, Assistant
General Manager Crawsey, OF the New
York Central Railroad, said:
Il do not know of any law compel
ling the companies TO refund this
money. and as we make a charge for
saving so many hours. we refund 81 for
each hour that the train Is late be
yond It's scheduled time as a policy OF
fair play to cur patrons So far as my
experience goes. l have heard
Of any action being brought by pas
sengers because our limited trains were
late"

Killed by Lightning.

& Charlotte, N. c., June 14.-One lad
was instantly killed and four others
seriously, perhaps fatally, injured by
lightning near Lexington, Davidson
county, this morning in an unusual
manner. The boys were out gather
ing plums when heavy storm came
up and they took refuge in the Office
zof a deserted manufacturing build
ing. Formerly telephone had been
in use in the Office but it had been
removed, leaving only the wires.
Lightning struck the wires outside
the building and travelled to the
office where the boys had gathered,
instantly killing Odell Young, IA
years old, and injuring four others
so. seriously that they have not re-
gained consciousness. There were
seven in the party and two were un-
injured. They hurried to a nearby
residence and gave the alarm, sum-
moning aid to the injured. None of
the injured boys were over Is years
of age. The injured are: Ernest
Bean, Is years old; Mack Andrews,
IA years old; Everett Walbern, 4
years old; Hollis Craver, Is years
old. Neither the dead lad nor those
injured bears marks of the deadly
stroke that felled them.

BLIND TONI is DEAD.
Negro, Born a Slave, Was Long q
Marvel as Musician.

New York, June 14.-"Blind Tom
the famous negro musician, marvel
of three generations Of playgoers,
died yesterday in Hoboken, N. j.,
where he has been living for years
in retirement and subsisting on
charity.
Thomas Virgins is the name given
in his burial certificate, but the sur
name was the one which the famous
pianist adopted. He was born a
slave near Columbus, Ca, about
1850.
In early childhood, Tom, who was
born entirely blind, and more than
idiotic, showed himself remarkably
initiative, frequently stealing into
the house of his master, to reproduce
on the piano forte pieces he had
heard played by others. In 1861 he
became so proficient on the instru-
ment that he was taken to New York
and exhibited as a phenomena and
later was heard in the United States
and Europe.
