 Mrs. J. A. Sexton learned by phone yesterday that her brother. Bass Ford, was drowned near Powhatan. No particulars. MT. Ford is well known here, having lived here sever
 al years. He spent several months here last winter aiding in gathering and went up the river in the spring, intending to work in tbe timber. He leaves a wife. a daughter of w. B.
 Doyle, and three small children. MT. Smith, with his wife and sew eral children. came here in the spring to get work, occupying a house on J. w. Lindley's farm. Mrs. Smith has been quite sick for several weeks, and
 on recovery from attack of fever is found to have lost her mind. She is 1 to be sent at once to Little Rock for

No information as to now long term is to be. Hope it will give our young people a permanent inter- est in song and will result Tn adding more voices in song at future services.
 Weather conditions are practically unchanged. Some helpful showers in adjacent neighborhoods since last notes were written, but nothing here. General feeling is that we have far prospect vet for cotton, but that tho corn question is settled; that the corn on which the crop of 1915 is to be made (around Battle Axe at ieast) IS to he hauled out from nearest rall- road station, and only hope our yield of cotton and price at gathering time may furnish means with which to buy corn and hay. Hence, we are busy as bees in the cultivation of the cot ton, sharpening the blows and plow- ing again and again, trying to pre- serve moisture and keep growth till the rain we hope for DOES come.
 Some of J. w. Lindley's cattle on the range north of us are beginning to initiate some people we meet, try ing to keep up with the fashion. Mir. Lindley put some very nice ear rings (tags) in their ears and also decor ated their hips with beautiful branda. But they, seeing other cattle with different style of jewelry, etc, have been, by some means, changing to cor respond. Mir. LindIey has just gonoE up to investigate. It rather occurs to this scribe that somebody is vigUr-a ously knocking at the door of the penitentiary.

In the rules for enginemen and con
ductors are many which seem quaint
In this age Of colossal railroading. OF
course the road had only one track.
and rule IA for passenger conductors
shows that there must have been some
dispute when trains met as to which
train had the right to keep on It's way
uninterrupted This rule says:
"As a general rule when trains meet
between stations the train nearest the
turnout will run back. Any dispute as
to which train Is to retire Is to be de-
termined at once by the conductors,
without interference on the part Of the
eng;nemen. This rule Is required to
be varied In favor of the heaviest load.
ed engine. or worst grades If they
meet near the center"
Rule z gives the conductor direc-
lions for reporting on the number of
passengers who are paying and the
number Of ministers Of the gospel who
were to be charged half price when on
business connected with their calling.
The same rule indicated that the gov
ernor Of the state and the general su-
perintendent Of the road were the
only individuals who had a right to
give passes.
The conductor was ordered to In.
spect the running gear of his train at
every station and, In rule Is, was ad-
monished Q to leave Atlanta or
Chattanooga without the mail or with
out first sending to the postofice for

at any station at night must invariably
be run on the turnout SO as to leave
the main track clear, and that strict

where a train stopped at night.
In the regulations for passenger en-
gtnemen there are a number which
seem almost humorous In this period
or railroad management. For instance.
the engineman was instructed that IL
his train killed any stock and threw
the COW or cows In such a position as
to endanger the safety Of the next
train he was TO stop his train and see
that the track was cleared.
Passenger trains were not to exceed
the speed Of their schedule except
when behind time, in which case the
speed might be increased three miles
an hour generally. In passing turn
outs (the turnout evidently was the
switching track the speed had to be
diminished to six miles an hour.-Rail
