INVENTS SAFETY SWITCH TO
PREVENT WRECKING TRAINS

G. v. Poe, of Savannah, left this
city this morning for Hampton
Springs, which he will make his
headquarters while trying out his
new patented safety switch to pre-
vent trains from splitting the switch
and wrecking. Mr.. Poe claims that
with his device, the trains have alb
solutely no chance to leave the rails
because of splitting a switch.
Steel models of Mr.. Poe's inven-
tion are being shipped to West Flor
ida now, and the device will be tried
out in a short time.
| Speaking of what he hopes to at
tain by his invetion, Mr.. Poe point
ed out that hundreds of lives are
lost annually by railroad accidents
caused by split switches. He be-
lieves he has supplied the need OF
having a device by which the wheels
are put back on the track before
they leave the frog. This is the
only invention of it's kind patented
lie said.
Mr.. Poe also spoke of another APP
paratus on which he is working
whereby when train jumps the
track on the main line or switch, the
air is thrown on automatically or
the entire train, and it stops within
half its length, saving great de
struction in railroad tracks, ties, etc.

Then he rang for messenger boy.
Out on Elm highway, where a charm

shingled house had its eyes shattered
and its doors padlocked.
People who knew all about the build
ers wondered what had happened to
stop operations, until the news filtered
through various sources that the en-
gagement was broken and the little
brown house would not be occupied
this summer. So the neighbors on
Elm highway ceased to watch for the
happy lovers, although Mrs. Bruce
Wade declared she had seen Philip
Corning stalking around the unfin-
ished house in the moonlight.
One rainy day Philip slammed his
desk cover and. struggling on q rain
coat, went for a tramp along Elm
highway. The steady downpour
soothed his restless spirit. and the
fresh. damp air was grateful after the
close atmosphere Of the Office.
He turned into the gate and went
around to the back door. The sound
of his coming was drowned in the fall
ing shower.
Someone was standing on the back
porch, peering through the glass pan
els of the kitchen door-a forlorn lit
tie figure In a raincoat, with the hood
drawn tightly over its head.
Philip recognized the figure-tha
