 George R. Anderson, signal main tainer of the New York. New Haven and Hartford railroad, who was on
 the witness stand when scourt ad-
 journed Monday, renewed his testi- mony Tuesday morning. He testified that he had looked up his records, such as he had. He did not remem- Der making repairs to the distant sig nal at Wood River in May or in June. If there was anything unusual with the signal he would make repairs. Ii signal failed to work after train pass ed it half a rail. he would consider that to be unusual, in a Wey, and he would have the matter investigated and the trouble remedied. He did not know of any such occurrence in May or June, but there might have been some trouble in July. He could not tell whether he was working in July or April. He could possibly tell of some work he did in April, but he could not tell positively without look ing up the records. He had no records back of August IS, and kept his rec ords at his headquarters in West Mys- tic. He did not know what became Of the c6eOrQS, p9FudpS uG OuIIlSu LleLll up or threw them away. He made no records of when there was trouble and these reports he made the super visor and foreman, but kept no rec ord. He made these reports without any previous memoranda. and carried no book to keep tabs on his men or their work.
 All the records are gone up to Au- gust except a few leaves of the April record, which he preserved for a spe- cial purpose. Had he kept the record book it would show that these pages were in regular order. MT. Phillips objected to the line of inquiry by MT. Fitzgerald and the court suggested that the trial proceed as speedily as possible. MT. Fitzgerald said MT. An derson was an unwilling witness and that he was therefore required to dig for testimony, which he would not have to do if the witness would testi- fy as readily for the defence as he did for the state The witness contfn- uing testified that the unusual trou- ble at Bradford distant signal when a telegraph wire interfered with the sys- tenn, was about a wear ago. He could not remember a failure of the signal at Wood River but he knew there was a failure there when the distant sienal failed to work, and found the difficulty was in the relay. He could not tell when this occurred, but pos sibly in July.

Frederick s. Evans, of Norwood, Mass, a locomotive engineer in ac- tive service for twenty fodr years, but not in the active service now, as he is general chairman of the NeWtown SyS- tenn of the engineers association. MT. Evans said he was a passenger on train 25 on the night of the wreck and he was in the sixth car from the en- zine. The first warning he, had was the application of the emergency
 brake, slackening of speed and then the impact of collision. He got off the train, and went back to about the middle of the rear car, after a look
 at the head of the train. The weather was damp and foggy. He saw no
 burning fuzes and heard no torpedoes. MT. Evans looked back and saw the agman start off on his duty. He then went up to the site of the wreck. He heard a woman grooming, who was ap parently body hurt, and with the as sistance of two others he took this woman to a nearby house. He then l went to the locomotive which was part way into the coach of 633. He called to fireman to inquire if any one was l hurt, and asked as to who was the engineer. Just then Mr. Mansfield spoke to witness. He then went to i where the car was burning and the 1 locomotive was still in the rear end | car. MT. Mansfield got off the en- l zine just as soon as the engine backed | out and MT. Evans asked the engin-
 eer if he was Jagged Objection made l and sustained on the ground that the
 talk he had was hearsay. MT. Fitz- 1 gerald referred to the talk of Cato
 and McClusky, which had previously | been testified.
 MT. Fitzgerald asked witness if he heard the talk between MT. Mansfield i and the towerman, and he replied that
 he did He had not heard the en- l gineer tell the towerman that he saw | the red latern and the rear end of 633 at about the same time McClusky | said: You run this block!"

 MT. Mansfield was trying to back the
 locomotive out of the wreck. The
 brakes were released and the engine
 was backed out. The ames swept
 down from the station into the loco | motive. After well out he went to the
 engine. MT. Mansfield was nearly ex- hausted and witness helped him off the locomotive. There was no one near at that time. Witness cooler MT. Mans | field off with water, when near the side of the engine. He remained by MT. Mansfield for half an hour after he assisted him from the engine. Quite

MT. Miller testified. when questioned by MT. Phillips, that some people who did not understand the workings of the circuits would call a false clear if the distant signal failed to respond to the first relay. but where there are two circuits he would not term it a false clear until after the train passed the first home signal. Then if the distant signal failed to work he would term it a false clear.
 He said when a signal does not go back to danger he would call a false clear after a train passed over a re- lay.

The Chifonier.

The chiffonier is large, copious
receptacle which will hold everything
that has not been put somewhere
else over night by Jealous wife.
The first chiffonier ever put to-
gether sprang from the fertile mind
of a man and was intended solely for
the use of husbands who wanted to
change their clothes without hunting
from the attic to the cellar for
clean shirt. 1t has apartments for
everything that man wears, and
when put in order by his deft, tidy
fingers is one OF the most useful ar
ticles ever invented. But how long
is the average chiffonier allowed 10
remain in that condition? We leave
it to the accusing conscience OF Wo-
man to answer. -
Every husband is an orderly pc
ing, and if left alone would know
where to place his fingers on his last
summers socks. At the close OF the
season he places them in the lower
left-hand drawer of his chiffonier,
but when he goes to look for them
the following spring he will probably
run into Sscollection of weather
beaten night-shirts. Some wives
even go so far as to fill their hus-
bands chiffonier with the nucleus
of a hair switch, decrepit corset COW
ers and broken-down silk hose, and
then expect him to dress for $3.50
dinner in twelve minutes by tue
watch.
When one considers the dsadvan-
tages under which the American hus-
hand labors, in attempting to pre-
sent a neat and bewitching appear
ance, it is a wonder to note his pa
tience and forgiving spirit. Every
closet in the house is filled with pet
ticoats, bronze boots and auto coats,
and if man wants to change MS
pants he has to paw over ten or
Twelve layers of dress goods. How
many divorces have been caused by
this treatment will never be revealed
until the Judgment, day.
The chiffonier is an ornament IN
any home, but it should have pad
lock on every drawer,-Howard
Ram.
