II remember a brother actor who
played one night in small western
town. At the climax of the third act
of his play the limelight was always

them. The prisoner who realizes that
his case Is hopeless is relieved when
the Judge pronounces sentence. Ben
walked hundred feet up the hill and
sat down behind a stump. When the
sled came along he could see and not
be seen. Ten minutes later the distant
shouts warned him that the descent
had begun. Then another sound struck
his ears. 1t was the heavy rumble OF
an approaching freight train. The sled
might cross the tracks ahead of 1t,
or it might fail by few seconds. At
best it was running a fearful risk.
Two hundred feet above the watch
ing man the sled suddenly shot into
view, and its half dozen occupants
were shouting and laughing Then
came the hoarse shrek of locomo-
tive. They were higher up and could
better see their danger. They began
jumping of, and Ben noticed that the
first one to go was man. The last
one left was Mary Lester! She was
on her knees with her hands over her
face. There were only seconds In
which to act. Even If Ben could leap
upon the sled there would be no time

and leap off, The long train was thun-
dertng up. There was only one thing
to do.
The girl did not see 1t done, but the
engineer did. In the moonlight he saw
the sled and knew that it must strike
the middle of his train and be ground
to splinters. Those on the road above
did not see it. Their eyes were open,
but they were blinded by tn ecomine
horror.
From behind the stump a human
body shot out on the roadway just q
second ahead Of the sled and the pray
ing girl. One runner passed over it.
It was meant that this should hap
pen. As the runner rose the course Of
the sled was detected and 1t turned to
the left and ran parallel with the rails
until It struck stone and overturned
with a crash.

mother.
"Yes." she answered. "but don't talk

He had saved her for another. but
even If that were SO he felt a gladness
in his heart and shut his eyes and
slept. 1t was weeks before they would
tell him all, and even then 1t was some
one else who told the tale. It was

PHYSICAL
VALUATION
Of Railways is Urgently De-

For Carelcssncss.


Washington, Dec 21.-Urgent de-
mand for the passage of a law for the
physical valuation of railroads by
the government is the feature of the
annual report of the Interstate Com
merce commission submitted to con-
gress today. In demanding the leg
islatlon, the report referred to the
"well known fact that no court or
! commission or accountant or financial
writer would for a moment consider
that the present railroad balance sheet
statement purporting to give the cost
of property suggests, even in re-
mote degree, a reliable measure eth
er of money invested or of present
value"
The railroad law passed last June
was credited in the report with hav-
| ing corrected numerous defects
which experience has disclosed, con-
| ferred upon the public new rights and
remedies and correspondingly in
creased the jurisdiction and authority
Of the commission"
The most important feature of the
law is said by the report to be the
provision giving the commission au-
thority to suspend increased rates
pending investigation of their propri-
ETY..
Since December i, 1909, thirty-onc
pleas of guilty for violation of rail-
road laws were received and the fines
imposed amounted to $4,000.
"The fight against discrimination"
said the report. sis by no means won,
practices still remaining which are
more insidious and more difficult OF
extirpation than open rebating, by
reason of the fact that they are hid
den in contractural arrangements en-
tirely legal except for the effect pro-
duced"
The total operating revenues of the
railroads during July August ana
September this year were $745,134,2O4
an increase of over sac, 100000 COM
pared with the same quarter of 1909.
The operating expenses in the three
months, however, were $4S9,699,3IS,
an increase Of over $4,000, 900, com
pared with the same quarter In 1909.
There are from $4,000 TO 10000
telephone companies which make pro-
vision for interstate communication
and the commission is in doubt wheth-
er IL was the intent Of congress to
place all these companies under Its
and control.
The number of passengers killed
during the year ended June 80, 1910
was 45O; injured 1855; employees
killed 9.41S; injured 6S,925; a total
of 1865 killed and S4,44O injured Tire

one Of the pieces of the pole killed
a sisteen-year-old boy who was a
spectator.
The county jail is in the fire dis
trict and there was pandemonium
among fifty prisoners when they

gether and arranged to take them
from the building into the court
house through a tunnel.
During the fire the county morgue
was threatened by falling walls, and
the building was ordered vacated.
Fifty families living in tenement
houses in the district fled from their
homes.
