Trains were held up at Hartford yester-
day morning, and to reach Philadelphia
passengers were brought back to Mount
Holly and taken to Camden by way of
Burlington. A wrecking train going from
Browns Mills to Camden, to which was
attached steam derrick, jumped the
track west Of Hartford. The accident is
supposed to have been caused by de-
fective rail. No one was injured. The
train was going at good speed, and be-
fore 1t came to stop 200 or more ties
had been torn up. Many commuters were
late In reaching their places of business.
Some automobiles are complaining of
the apparent defect In the law requiring
vehicles to carry lamps. The automobile
people think the law should be changed
30 that lamps should show from the rear
as well as the front of wagons. If those
who are disposed to complain will read
the law they will find that 1t specifies that
every vehicle drawn by horse, horses, or
other beasts, shall carry, during the period
of one hour after sunset and one hour be-
fore sunrise, at least one lighted lamp.
light visible at least $50 feet.
and the light shall be SO displayed that 1t
may be seen In the direction toward which
or from which the vehicle is proceeding.
Many carriages and wagons carry lamps
that can be seen only In one direction, and
others have lights under the body where
they are not visible until an approaching
vehicle Is almost In touch with the other.
There Is no necessity for a change In the
law; all that Is needed is the enforcement
of the statute.

girls to their camping grounds at night,

at the door by her father, and to impress
the fact upon her mind that he meant
what he had said, she was given a severe
whipping, which she did not relish. The
fellow, who accompanied the young girl
home, after hearing what her father
thought of him and knowing what the
girl had received for being out with him.

ing glad that he got no further than the
door. 1t is said he has not been seen In
