tween Paris and Lexington. and known
as the "dinkey' train, had an unusual
and exciting experience late Monday
afternoon near Warrentown. Fayette
county, which DELAYED the train for
two hours and came near resulting Sc
riously for the crew.
The train was running along at a
rate of about Is miles an hour when a
tall tree beside the track which had in
some way caught fire, fell across the
track, striking the moving engine and
endangering two lives. The engineer
caught sight of the burning tree and
endeavored to pass before the tower
ing mass of flame fell, but Just as the
engine got opposite. the burning tree
came down with crash, striking the
locomotive and scattering FIRE about
the heads of the engine crew.
The engine was so badly damaged
that a delay of about two hours was
occasioned in chopping the burning
tree top to pieces to get it out of the
way of the train so that the flames
would not set fire to the coaches, and
in making repairs on the engine.
