TRACK WALKER SAVES
train FROM DISASTER
Uses Coat on Stick as Signal on Find
ing Rail Broken.

Presence Of mind and quick action Oh
the part OF a trackwalker averted what
might have been serious train wreck
yesterday. according to passengers who
reached Washington from the South over
the Atlantic Coast Line.
The Palmetto Limited, one of the
Atlantic Coast Lines fastest and most
luxuriously equipped fiers running be-
tween Tampa and New York. left Rich
mond Sunday behind time. The train was
made up OF twelve Pullmans and coaches
and was speeding to make up lost time
as 1t passed Lorton, Va, which about
fifteen miles south of Alexandria.
track-walker discovered a broken rail
on an embankment eighteen feet in
height. Improvising a signal by tying
his coat onto a stick, he ran down the
track toward the train.
The engineer threw on his brakes Such
was the speed Of the train that It stopped
barely a half-car length from the broken
rail-
There Is a block tower at Pohick. and
to this the track walker ran. A section
gang was summoned and the broken
rail replaced with a new one. the train
proceeding on its way northward. most
of the passengers unaware that anything
out of the ordinary had occurred.
One Of the passengers said he had ex-
amined the rail- from which a piece
about two feet long had been broken.
The train, which was due In Washing
ton at $40 o'clock In the morning, did
not arrive until 10:0e.
Oflcers of the Atlantic Coast Line here
refused to comment on the incident. but
said the tracks from Richmond to Wash
ington are owned by the Richmond,
Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad.
and the train is operated as an r. F. ana
p. train between these cities.
The Palmetto Limited is a de luxe train
and travel on it Is confined largely to
wealthy people going to and returning
from the Southern resorts and Cuba
The identity Of the quick-witted track
walker has not been revealed.

WAS GREAT.GRANDMOTHER
BETTER OFF

| The British department of agriculture
made the rather astonishing statement
not long ago that the woman of a hundred
years ago, with her simple cottage and
| her fireplace-cookery, was better on from
the point of view of household efficiency
and household economy than the average
Englishwoman Of the present time.
Can this be so?
And II it is true of England, can 1t bs
even in small measure true of the United

Truly. great-grandmother's repertoire of
cookery was not usually very extensive.
If she were Of English family she knew
how to roast meats, how to cook plain
vegetables. to make wholesome breads
and few heavy but not necessarily in
disestihle pastries and puddings. If her
antecedents had been German or French
she crooked with even greater economy.
! She made use of every scrap of the beef
and pork and lamb to make meat dishes
OF peculiar excellence. In fact. as we
have heard grandmother say. in those
days everything but the squeal of the

dishes. The most scientific Of modern
