Rnce for Life.

Geneva, March 19.-(Special.)-To pre-
vent a serious collision two locomotives,
with several passenger coaches. while
descending the Jura Alps from Vallorbe
to Lausanne on Sunday, had to put on
the highest speed possible, as some
heavily-laden goods wagons, which had
broken away from the train soon after
leaving the station of Croy, descended
with terrific speed on the passenger
train. A race for life ensued, which was
watched by a number of alarmed pas
sengers through the windows.
The locomotives won the race, for near
the station of Arnex, on steep grade,
the wagons stopped and were again
coupled on the train, which, in spite OF
delay, arrived at Lausanne several
minutes earlier than the scheduled time,
owing to the great pace during the race
for life.

 He also told in a graphic way what the State Normal is doing in the way of training the teach CTS of the state.
