A STRANGE ACCIDENT.
An Interesting Story, But

An Interesting Story, But
Greensboro Record.
The Charlotte Observer con-
denses this peculiar account OF a
railroad accident.
The other day two middle
coaches of a passenger train on
the Lehigh Valley Railroad left
the rails while the train was
running at high speed. The
coaches ran on the crossties for
nearly a mile and then jumped
back to the rails. AS wonderful
as was this performance equally
as remarkable was the fact that
none of the train crew knew
any of the cars had left the rails
until they had gotten back in
proper position. The jolt caused
by the cars return to the rails
caused the conductor to stop the
train in order to see what was
the matter. Investigation then
made showed that some of the
cars, then on the rails, had beer
running on the crossties fol
some distance. This, one of the
most remarkable railway acct.
dents on record, is vouched fol
by a special correspondent Of
The Philadelphia Record. The
correspondent fails, however. t.
state whether failure to detect
at that time that the cars were
off the track was due to the
splendidly ballasted and smooth
condition of the roadbed which
made running on itas comfortable
to the passengers as on the rails
or that it was such a rough piece
of road that a car being off TIN
track did not make perceptibl
difference in it's running"
The story is readable, but it
truthfulness reminds US of
joke by an old minstrel end man
He said that his fathers broth
er's son declared that the en-
mans father was not his uncle
After all hands had tried to eH
plain what the boy meant, tn
end man said it was easy enoug
that the boy simply lied
Same way about this accident.

WALKS FOR TWO HOURS
WITH BULLET NEAR HEART

NEW YORK. Sept. 2s.-After Thomas
Gray, 10 years old, was shot once in the
chest. two inches from the heart, and
once iii the thigh. he walked the streets
for two hours before going home, fear
ing that his father would not believe
that a mysterious stranger in a door
way a wounded him without reason.
On reaching home he talked pleasantly
with his parents for a half hour and
then retired.
His mother found blood-stained gar
ments several hours later. and this led
to the discovery that the youth had
been shot. The father walked more
than a mile to Bellevue Hospital. where
the doctors said that the wound in
his chest might prove fatal.

SPLENDID COTTON PLANT

L. E. Schrack, of Heber, brought to Fl Centro a cotton plant bearing over two hundred bolls of cotton. This seed was planted in June, and has never been irrigated since that time getting all of it's moisture from the rains.
 A conservative estimate of the amount of cotton that this ten acres will yield would not be believed if published, but as 9 bolls to the plant will average nearly a bale to the acre, you can figure it out for yourself. The plant is on exhibition in this office and we invite all those inter- ested to make an inspection of it.

exist between the claims of Com mander Peary and Dr. Frederick A Cook, there can be no doubt thal to the United States belongs the un- questionable credit ana lasting re- nown of discovering the North pole.
 The coincidence of two American announcements of such colossal achievement coming within five days, after centuries of fruitless endeavor, is one of the most remarkable iu his tory.
 The question of priority fin reach ing the pole now aOsorbs attention That Peary will claim to be the first discoverer appears to be practically assured from the following:
 First-Formal announcement has been telegraphed from Indian liar Dor, Labrador, to all principal Amer ican and foreign geographical socie. ties of all nations, including Brazil and Japan, specifically announcing that "the North pole was discovered April Sixth by the Peary Arctic Club expedition, under command of Com mander Peary"
 Second-A London dispatch re- ceived from St. Johns, N. F., states that Commander Peary reports that he was the first man to reach the North pole
 Aside from the question Of prior ity Commander Pearys announcement of reaching the pole appears to be ac- cepted throughout the United States and the world at large by scientists as well as the general public, and there is an absence of the doubt and skepticism which greeted the Cook announcement
 There is however, apparent re- serve of judgment on the question of priority between the two explorers
 Dr. Cook, in an interview at Co., penhagen today, says he is the first to shout hurrah for Peary. If he has telegraphed an announcement he has reached the pole, then it is true and I congratulate him."
 Dr. Cook also states he does not want any controversy.
 No further word direct from Peary has been received today, nor can there be any until he reaches Chateau bay, Labrador tonight or tomorrow.
 The world continues to be stirred with excitement and admiration for the achievement by which America has solved the problem of centuries.
