Arrested a Locomotive.

A sensational arrest has just been
made at Bordeaux. A short time ago
several acres of forest we're laid waste
by fierce fire. Inquiries led the au-
thorities to believe that the guilty
party was locomotive which emitted
sparks on its way through the forest.
Consequently NJ. Lefranc. examining
magistrate Of Bordeaux, was instruct
ed to arrest the engine, and, duly
armed with warrant, he went forth
TO the Care 81. Jean, read the warrant
in front Of the throbbing monster, and
arrested II on charge OF arson. He
then wheel-cpffed it--in other words,
put the seals on Without any re-
sistance from the prisoner, which no
doubt was given the usual warning
that anything IL might say would be
used In evidence against II.
The locomotive remained mute, and
II has now to stand trial before jury
of experts who will decide whether
the accused party is in proper work
ing order.
The matter being sub judice no
comments need be made. but It may be
said in passing that arson is an Of

death. Which makes II look pretty

connecting meals to suit President
Taft. who Is rigidly In favor OF all
