Left Child Practically Unframed.

Escaping alive after a train had
passed over him was the experience
Of George James Random, a four-year-
old boy, living with his parents at
Hui, England. The child had climbed
up the embankment and was toddling
along the track when a coal train Of
30 cars came along. The driver did
not see the child nor did he hear the
agonized shouts Of the spectators
amongst whom was the boys uncle
who we're too far of to render as
sistance. The child was seen to be
struck down, and the spectators an
ticipated It had been cut to pieces.
When the train had passed the boy
was found lying between the rails
with only an injury to the head. The
coupling links had struck and stunned
the child, and 1t had lain motionless
while the train passed.

A Terrible Creature.

When Albert Henry Savage Landor
reached St Petersburg on his way
from the forbidden land, the fact was
duly chronlcled, and the London Press
associations sent cable messages to
Australia telling of the hairbreadth
escapes and manifold sufferings. The
Melbourne Times received but short
note, which was this:
"A Savage Landor arrived in st. Pc
tersburg today from Tibet after suf-
fering greatly at the hands of the ma
tives."
This was meager enough, but the
news editor was equal to the occasion.
The following morning, among the
other matters of news, the readers
of the Times found this startling in
formation:
"A savage landor got into st. Pc
tersburg yesterday, and the people Of
the city we're terrified After consid
cradle difficulty, the beast, which came
from Tibet, was captured, taken to q
remote place and there dispatched
It Is said that this is the first animal
OF the sort ever seen In Russia. How
he reached the city after his fights
with the natives Of Tibet, which is q
comparatively unknown country, is q
mystery."-MacDougalls Magazine.

New Fuel for Railroad.

Although the Texas, Arkansas and
Louisiana railroad is only seven miles
long, it is pioneer in the use Of nat
ural gas as a fuel for locomotives.
The one engine Of the system, after
burning coal and oil, is now using
natural gas to get up steam. and 1t is
asserted that the last is the best of
all. There are neither cinders, smoke
or smell incident to its combustion
and steam is kept up with a regu-
larity that would be the delight Of any
engineer. A saving Of twenty-five per
cent. is effected by the use Of gas.
To the regular tender, now useless
except as a carrier Of water, a stand
ard gas tank is attached. Whether
natural gas can be usedeto advantage
by locomotives on long runs has not
been determined.

Strange Offerings on Graves.

Striking grave-diggers in the GENE.
terry of Pere la Chaise recently called
attention to the largest of Paris burial
grounds and one that is said to harbor
more celebrities than any other ceme-
terry in the world. Few Of the tombs,
however, possess much artistic merit.
weight is their chief peculiarly"
writes Augustus Hare, "and all the
Dnonuments look as If each family had
tried to pile up as much marble as
possible upon their deceased rela.
tives." To foreign visitors the offer.
Ings on some Of the graves constitute
the most interesting feature. Chill.
dren's graves are often strewn with
fruit and sweets, and those of adults
with more substantial food. Bottles
of wine are also seen, and one be-
reaved parent leaves potato salad
on his sons tomb every Sunday.

Railway Yard Plants.

It has been noticed that many plants
not natives of the locality, are to be
found growing ir the neighborhood of
great railroad yards. Sometimes the
seeds of these plants have been
brought thousands Of miles from their
natural habitat. Often they flourish
amid their new surroundings and grad.
ually spread over the surrounding
country. Thus the trains carry un.
suspected emigrants, which travel to
and from every point of the compass.
In the Missouri valley are to be found
plants which within a few years past
have thus been brought together;
some from the Atlantic seaboard, some
from the gulf region and some from
the other side of the Rocky mountains.
