"A c., c. & 1. MISADvENTURE

Only the fortunate breaking OF a
coupling prevented what otherwise
would have been q serious wreck OF q
c., C. & L. freight train yesterday
morning. A box car nsar the front
of the south bound train jumped the
rails on tn trestle only few feet north
of the Main street bridge between 5
and 8 O'Clock. The car luneed off the
trestle. carrying with 1t q tank car.
The coupling broke and the earn be-
hind were not disturbed.
Going Along Slowly.
The slow speed at which the train
was moving at the time was partly re
sponsible for the absence Of q serious
wreck. The train had not finished
rounding the curve at the gas house
and was running slowly. The car
that left the rails was second from the
engine. It rose mp in the air with
the front trucks skidding across the
ties. 1t remained in this position only
. minute. and before the train could be
stopped the rear trucks went off the
east side Of the trestle throwing the c7.
over. As the car broke away from
the one behind and fell. 1t pulled the
tank car along. The two turned half
way over. remaining on the ground
with the trucks In the air. Both cars
were empty. They lacked only . few
feet Of rolling onto the Sidewalk.
The regular southbound passenger
train arrived = short time after the
cars had jumped. 1t was delayed for
about two hours, or until the tracks
could be put In condition and the
freight train continue ON fts way. A
large number Of persons on the paasen-
ger train walked to the scene Of the
wreck and stamped and fretted, BE-
cause OF the delay. Al soon n pos
sible an attempt was made to Lit the
cars back onto the track The long
lift from the ground to the top Of the
trestle was too much fcr the equip
ment. however, and other attempts
were made today.

AnecdOte of Gen. Howard.

An incident in the life of the late
Gen. o. o. Howard, who recently died
at Burlington, VT, was told by Presi
dent John NJ Thomas, of Middlebury
College at a recent after-dinner talk.
1t shows the remarkable fortitude and
quick decision of the General, who
had carried an empty sleeve almost
half a century General Howard was
run down by an automobile a few
weeks before his death, while visiting
in New York. In his remaining hand,
for one arm was shot off in service
during the Civil War, he carried a
suitcase. AS the machine bore down
on him, and he could not get out of
the way, he dropped the suitcase and
swung himself upon the hood of the
machine. The car went some dis
lance before it was stopped Had it
struck him at the speed it was main

Bow Has Trained Crow.

Forrest Wentworth, of East Dover,
student in Brattleboro High School
has a trained crow which attracts a
large amount of attention in this sec
ton. About two years ago three small
crows were captured at the Went
worth home and tenderly cared for
but the family were successful in
raising only one of the three. The
crow soon took a liking to Master
Forrest and he began to follow his
favorite to school in Dover. He would
perch on the window sill directly be-
hind the boy and during recess time
he would get his fun by stealing small
articles of clothing or food from the
school children. H has even been
known to try to open their dinner
pals in order to secure the food. Now
that Master Forrest does not attend
school there, the tame crow has
shown liking for another schoolboy
in the neighborhood and goes to
school with his new favorite. He does
not offer to fly away with the other
crows, but in fact seems to be afraid
of them. During the summer nights
the crow stays in the trees near the
house and sometimes serves as an
alarm clock, but in the winter he is
very glad to seek shelter for his lodg-
ing. He likes to be out of doors and
was greatly disturbed during the deer
season as it was thought best to
keep him inside. The tame crow seems
to have a dislike for hens as he tor
ments them when they are eating by
floating very low over them, but he
does not offer to disturb the chickens
He is rather eXtravagant in selecting
his special dishes, as he is fond of
butter and eggs. The most interesting
thing about the tame bird is that he
seems to understand what is being
| said to him and has learned to talk
some. He can say hello" very plain
and will talk more freely for his mas
ter when a drum is used to give him
| the impulse. He has started horses

This story has nothing to do with
the telephone business, nor with Mr..
Vail. but it tells what he isn't.
Now tell 'em this says Mr.. Vail,
after narrating many of the facts con-
tanned in this article, with an abrupt
ness that is just little reminiscent
of the late E. H. Hartman, Tell
them on the subject of this matter of
competition that experience shows
that competition in districts where
there have been fairly stable condi-
lions in the telephone business has
seldom resulted in lowered rates over
the non-competitive districts. OF
course in some country districts where
all the lines are little local lines char
tered on the theory that cheapness is
something that the telephone business
can afford to live with, competition
has resulted in lower rates than are
charged in non-competitive districts.

service, and think now how long the
companies have lasted.

version of the $150,000,0 900 bonds now
being exchanged for stock is COM
pleted the last of whatever water

Made First HorseIess Carriage.

Enos NJ. Clough, or Lakeport, form
erly of st. Johnsbury, was probably
the maker of the first horseless car
riage in New England. While he was
employed as machinist in the rail-
road shops in st. Johnsbury, forty
years ago, he began the pattern and
the finished product was not turned
out until fourteen later. 1t was d
success as far as locomotion was
concerned but made so much noise
he was not allowed to operate it on
the public highway. He finally sold it
to Lakeport parties and after it was
wrecked in collision with fence
the machinery was placed in steam
boat and the running gear was burn
ed.
