Harrington

Engineer Hastings Killed in Rail-
road Accident; Locomotive Over
turned
A serious railroad accident occur
red at the junction of the D. NJ. &
V. r. R. and the Love POint-Lewes
gasoline line, about dark Saturday
evening. According to trainmen who
escaped, the freight extra, whose
terminal was Harrington and in
charge of Conductor Noah Day, was
approaching the junction as a speed
of about Is miles per hour with a
train of 81 loaded cars. Many acci-
dents happen at this point and for
some reason all enginemen upon ap-
preaching this point exercise eau
ton, including engineer Hastings,
who was rated as very careful en-
gineman. He discerned the signal
at a distance and called it clear. A
closer approach and brakeman
Bradley who was riding in the cab
on the fireman's side of the engine,
discovered the top light Of the sig
nal out. About the same time fire
man Knox also discovered the same
condition of the signal. They yelled
to the engineer to throw on the
emergency brake. Knox Immediately
started to leave the engine, closely
followed by brakeman Bradley. He
was injured pretty badly when he
Jumped from the apron of the en-
gine. Engineer Hastings had left the
cab and the fireman and brakeman
thought he followed them from the
engine. It is very evident when the
engine left the rails and toppled ov-
er, Hastings lost his balance and
was caught in the wreckage, being
instantly killed. The coal tender and
two cars also left the rails and turn
ed over.
Conductor Day and his fagman
were riding in the cab at the rear OF
the train. They thought the sudden
stop was caused by the bursting OF
an air hose. Tools were gathered up
and they followed the train line to-
ward the engine to look for the
broken hose. It was then that the
real cause of the accident was dis
covered.
Brakeman Bradley gave his YER
sion of the accident to newspaper
reporter. He said the accident was
terrible, and when he landed he was
probably stunned; at any rate he
could not get up. He saw the over
turned engine and heard the creak-
ing and cracking the rails and
splintered timbers. His position, ne
said, was considered dangerous, not
knowing what minute some of the
flying wreckage might land in that
direction. He also said that he be-
ieved engineer Hastings was in
stantly killed for he did not hear
any outcry from anyone. The,wreck-
age did not catch ire and none were
scalded with steam. Doctors were
summoned from Georgetown, who
took care of the injured. The wreck
train was summoned from Harring-
ton and soon set TO the task Of
clearing the tracks. officials Of the
Railroad Company were en- the
scene early investigating the affair
with a view of placing the blame for
the accident.
Ebe T. Hastings was born IN
delaware and was the son of ]. G.
Hastings and Ida Salmons Hastings.
He was about forty-five years Of
age and had been a railroad en-
nloyee for several years. When the

One of the best liked members Of one
of the New York clubs is an old pro-
fessor of Greek at one of the local uni
versities. He has read every thing that
has been published on the game but
has never been able to become a good
auction player. Every once in a while
he has a bad night and when he does
his partners try to grin and bear it. The
following hand is an illustration of the
professors game:

The professors contract was FIVE spades
and A led the ace of hearts and then a
low heart which the professor won with
the king. He then took out the trumps
and led a small club from dummy and
fnessed with his queen. The king was
in AS hand so that the professor failed
to make his contract as he subsequent
ly lost the king of diamonds which was
also in AS hand. After the hand was
over, the professor said to his partner,
"Well, partner, if the king of clubs had
been on the right side, would have
made my bid" His partner, very
good player, replied: 'You could have
gone game without taking the inesse.
After YOU had taken out the opponents
trumps, you should have led low dia-
mond toward the queen in dummy. A
had the king so that your diamonds
were set up and on the last two in your
hand, you could have discarded two
losing clubs in dummy" This criticism
was correct and the professor apologized
for taking a 6nesse when it wasn't

The professor should have sized up
the hand as follows: "a can only have
four clubs for he has led the three and
the deuce is in dummy. Therefore, ABB
should only make two club tricks and
two heart tricks. If the diamonds ara
evenly divided, l can go game without
fnessing the queen of spades. If they
don't break, then l will have to fnesse
the queen of spades" Unfortunately, he
failed to figure out the hand as outlined,
and as soon as he got dummy in the
lead, led the spade, fnessed the queen
and A won the trick with the king of
spades. It was now impossible for the
professor to go game as he had to lose
two club tricks, two heart tricks and
one spade trick. To play the hand cor
rectly he should have set up his hearts
and then have played for the drop in
diamonds. They were evenly divided
so that in this way he could have made
game. His partner was silent for a min
ute and then said: "Well, professor, it
looks as if anybody>can teach Greek
but auction seems to require head"

and see that you don't make the same
error. Count your losing tricks and
don't fnesse if you don't have to do so.

opened the three of clubs. The profess

DISCOVERY OF MOSLEM WOMAN MAYOR FIRES VOTE CAMPAIGN

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 28. (P)- Turkeys one and only mayor has been found and the fact that for years she has administered her Of- flee as an illiterate has fired the courage of feminists here in their campaign toward the vote for Mos lem women.
 Koudret Hanoum, woman beyond sixty, for many years has been unan- imously elected mayor of the vil- lage of Germat in the vilayet of Err dahan She can neither read nor write, but she knows all the laws of the village by heart. She is a widow and with her daughter -in-laW and two granddaughters, does all the work on the farm, which is their only source of livelihood
 It is the first example the leaders of the Union of Women" can cite in proving Turkish woman's abil- ity in government affairs. While Ma yor HanOum has a masculine bearing and masculine interests, the Union ponts out that she has an intelligence superior to that of all the men in her vicinity. For that matter, the union claims the average Turkish woman is more clever mentally and more energetic physically than the average Turkish man.
 When the governor of the vilayet sends Mayor Hanoum new order, she has taken it to the village teach CT who reads it until the mayor has memorized it. She is known not to have forgotten a single point in an order Under her regime, Germat has surpassed the entire district in it's advancement.
 Mayor Hanoum rides horseback with vigor and handles a gun with skill. When the village receives ru- mors of approaching brigands, she it is who leads the young men to the defense.
 The chief aim of Turkish women now is not the vote, but education and experience. The great work has been against the social restrictions of Turkish women. Now they are pouring into the law and medical schools just opened to them, into nor nal schools and business. Many graduates already have proved their ability as professional and business women.

High School won the championship
of state district ii in a fast football
game with Del Rio High here yester-
day, u to 0.
A crowd of probably 5000 attended,
the largest in Sabinal football history.
The first quarter was a punting
duel, but Pearsall took the offensive
in the second and forced two touch
downs. V. Toalson galloped 80 yards
returning a punt for the first one,
and. after Del Rio had held a foot
from the goal a little later, Page
blocked the attempt to kick out and
fell on the ball across the line for the
other touchdown.
Del Rio failed in desperate efforts
to pass their way to victory in the
third and fourth quarters.
Pearsall now awaits word from
