A dastardly act was committed
Friday midnight, out near Summit
station, Boyd county. and which
might easily have resulted In the
death or serious injury of one or
more passengers on Lexington d.
vision train No "a, which arrives at
Ashland at 1880 a. IN. As the train
passed Summit two goodly sized
rocks we're thrown at the train
supposedly by two different persons,
as they struck practically simultan-
eously-one striking a window OF
the smoker, and the other window
in the first day coach. The rocks
which fell inside the cars are In
possession OF Capt \. N. Hughes,
the conductor OF No. "a,
j. Verne Rice. OF Palntsyille. who
was sitting In the smoker, had a
close call, as one OF the rocks
struck his window. shattering the
glass into fragments. and probably
the only thing that kept him from
being killed or badly hurt was the
fact that he had previously pulled
down the wooden shutter. The rock
that entered a window OF the first
day coach passed perilously near the
heads Of several ladies, and they
were covered with broken glass and
given bad scare.

Man told us this the other day. We
never heard it before, but we don't
know whether it's original, so we
won't stand for it. Merely repeat it,:
"How can you tell Yale man from
q Harvard man?"
well, Yale man always acts as
If he owned the world
"Yes?"
"And a Harvard man always acts
as If he doesn't know what vulgar
person owns the world, and, further
more. he doesn't care to know"
