A Boy Falls Under a Train.
The Danville Keics states'that on Wednes
day morning last, as the mail train on the
JNortn Carolina Bailroad reached High
Point, several little boys were, as usual,
hanging around the depot, and as the traiB
was coming to a stop, little Willie Oilchrist
endeavored to bounce on and get a free ride.
He missed his footing and fell beneath the
moving card. He had one of his feet cut off
below the knee, and but for the stopping
of the cars just then, would have been
crushed to death. Experience keeps a dear
school, but her lessons are the last to be for
gotten.

The Schedule Changes.
The Piedmont Air Line is preparing sche
dules and trains which will regain some of
the travel which it has been losing. During
the past season a great deal of the travel
which should have come this way has beer
going by the other route. It is the natural
route between New York and New Orleans,
and having a good road, and well equipped
as it is, should eatch the erreater Dart of th
Southern travel. With a nicker ti mn firm
closer connections it will do this. It will
carry passengers through from Atlanta to
Richmond without change. By the Virginia
Midland line there will be bit one change
of cars between Charlotte and Washington
City, and that at Danville at 8.30 a. m. By
this line, also, one can leave Charlotte in the
morning at 2 20 and reach Washington in
time for supper the same night, and in New
York in time for breakfast next mornine.
This arrangement reduces the time between
Charlotte and New York six hours.

the crowd marched to a beautiful groye near
the town, where the pleasures of a picnic
vere entered into and enjoyed very greatly
until about 1 o'clock, when dinner was
served. Seven or eight hundred people par
took of this, and after it was oyer, a large
number dispersed to the Methodiat Church
and others up town. At the church the as

speeches from representatives of all the
schools.
The hour for departure having arriv

the day had been spent, and the occasion
was one of no insignificance, being a social

for a long time by the participants. The
picnicers luckily escaped the rain which fell
in the afternoon, having returned to the
town before the raia began to fall.

Since Providence seems to Lavs gone into

Pinerillein the recent base ball contest, we
respectfully submit to them the propriety
of remembering the old and qaaint adage,
"Don't cheer until vau are nnt r.f ti

memorv of the Monroe

lowing significant item, viz : That on the
very day of the contest at Piaeyille, over
wnich they make such a hulla-balloo, the
Second .Nine of Piaeville mercilessly ran
over the Second Nine of Providence, to the
tune of 28 to 10, and that in five innings, as
at the end of the fifch, Providence cried
