The Noith Carolina Society of the Daughters of the Revolution, at their Uf ting on February 17th, passed a res- cln'ii'ii to tueuioiiaiite the Legislature in asking that North Carolina be represen ted at tbe St. Louis Fair in 1904.

Tlic bill nothing engineers to give timely warning to prisons on track by ringing bell and blowing whittle came up as special order. Senatoi McMullan, of Piifquotink, made his maiden speech in support of this bill and held the close attention of ihe Senate. His language was well chosen and bis argument was complimented by all. If a huiuau being stand on the track said Senator MoMullao, the engineer need sound no alarm but if a cow or hog be on the rail warning must be sounded, "Does the Senator not know thai a man on tbe iraek is a tre-p isset?" asked Mr. Wi odard, 'Does the Senator from Wilson think trespassers should tic killed without warning?'' retorted Mr. McMullan. Mr. Henderson argued against the bill. Mr Travis spoke against the bill, basing his opt o-i'ioo on the fact that it established a wrorg rule in that it petmitted a man to recover damages on proof of a negative instead of an affirma tive, and in the second place because it is assuming perogativei that should be left to the Supreme Court. Instead of a bill lo save human life it was to collect dam ages (or lives thus lost. The law could not make ao engineer blow a whistle un less he saw the man and this does not change the duty of keeping an outlook. The bill was sidetracked by a vote of 28 to 15.
