COMH ( TOR SAVKI) HIS TRAIN FROM A VVRLCK Spencer .Man Detects Broken Rail by Sound While Sitting in His (ah. Salisbury l'ost. 1 A remarkable incident in connec tion with railroading and one that probably saved the lives of pisseng (re on a Southern railway fast train, was that occurring several days ago ; wlio.ll Conductor K. 1,. Miller, who 'runs on a freight out of Spencer on I the north end, detected a broken rail by mere sound while sitting in the leal) of his train, freight No. 5212. run ! liing as art extra, and when passing l over a section of track between Spen |cer and Lexington. j Conductor Miller was busy at the time making up some reports, but his ears were also at work arid as the 1 train went up a grade near Lexington lie felt a very slight jolt, hut it was nut an ordinary jolt and the railroad man know it. I "If that isn't a broken rail, then 41'don't know what a broken rail is,” he said lie thoughto himself. So j when his train stopped n short dis it a nee up the mad he sent his flagman 'hack to make an investigation, and j instructed the flagman that if he I found anything wrong to go hack still I farther and flag fast passenger train No. 30. due in a few minutes. Sim* j enough the flagman found a broken ! rail and carried out the further or ders of his conductor. No 30 "hall- I ing the jack.” ad railroad men say, j was down the road only it short, dis j tance and would soon have hit the broken rail. the. conseyuences of which might have beei\ something ter rible. liut it was flagged and came to a stop, then slowly passed over arid tin* rail was soon replaced. !‘TM running this GAME,” SAYS LANDIS - Baseball’s Czar Gets Hard-Boiled i About Rube Benton Decision. j Cincinnati. 0., March 13.—Cincin nati National League recruits, who nr j rived at-the Red’s training camp hist ■ night, said Judge K.

The March issue of Beautiful .Womanhood is fascinating. It con tains a wide variety of infoVmation 'on beauty and beauty culture. Among ' the eontridutors are Charlotte Per for the development to fisheries in the state. His recommendation of J>ls.- 000,000 for the highway construction program was granted. His recommen dation that two new. departments of ! government, a department of indus tries and commerce and a department of -hanking, was not enacted into Jaw. I To ho submitted to the general oiec tioTi nr** three amendments to the <*on ! stitufion passed upon by the general j assembly. They propose tin* limitation jof tin* slate debt to 7 1-2 per cent, of the taxable valuation of the state; to make sinking finals inviolable, both suggestions of the governor; and to provide tax exemption for the home i under mortgage up to half tin* face of | the obligation, provided tin* mortgage ! does not exceed SB,OOO, jintl for the ex emption of half the mortgage from taxation, provided tin- rate of interest ’charged on the loan does not ox’ceed in 1-2 per cent. j The assembly voted to place solioi ! tors on salary of $4,500 and $750 ex j pense account, hut defcrnr*d tin* change [to October 1. 1024, anil ii decline*! to 'increase the number of judges .and to [divide tin* state to make seven addi jlional districts.

The assembly raised the age of con sent from 14 to IC* years; refused to alto#’ th<* divorce laws and declined to pass :t hill to prohibit Xfie flogging of prisoners. Among other legislation of fered and refused was a hill to regu late the automolfiie for hire, operating on the stjite highways. The general revenue hill, carrying a new exemption for foreign corporation, stocks, but leaving the rate of income taxation unchanged, passed; and the machinery act providing for the quad rennial revaluation of property hy the counties without state revision was en acted., Persistent efforts to regulate the Ku Klux Khifi failed to meet the approval of the Senate after the House had passed.
