BARELY ESCAPED -WITH THEIR LIVES Gatekeeper at Billmore's Dangerous Grade Crossing Saves Miss LIpe - and Little Sister. The dangerous railway crossing at IHItmore ;umo near being ' the scene of another tragedy late Tuesday after noon when Miss Nellie LIpe, 11 crip pled lady, narrowly missed being run down by 11 passing train. The itllt more crossing lias forvyeors been the tulk of people who lira .compelled to pass that way and likewise the sub ject of much severe criticism against the authorities and the railway for continuously maintaining anil permit ting to be maintained such a "death trap." Tuesday afternoon Miss l.lpe; ac companied by her little . sister, nnd wheeling herself in her Invalid chnlr, attempted to cross. While crossing, however, one of the lady's crutches fell and catching in the rail or striking the rail caused the Invalid chair to careen and Miss I.lpu war thrown out, directly midway lietwcen the rails. Almost at that Instant a train came clown the track; the little sister, while realizing the dunger, stayed with the Invalid; the train could not be stopped and it looked for a second as though life would be lost. The gate-keeper was equal to tin emergency. With one bound he sprang to the rescue of the Imper illed gills and literally dragged Miss LIpe and her sister to safety; and Just In the nick of time. The big mogul of the rail plunged past with the engin eer endeavoring to stop his engine but without result until the hi'nvy engine had passed over the spot where the two Indies were. The invalid chair was badly wrecked and had not the gate-keeper succeeded' In dragging Mb Lip and her little sister off the track both would certainly have been run over nnd killed. The railway crossing at I'.lltmore Is equally as dangerous as the crossing at Smith's bridge where several nar. row escapes have occurred during the past year or two; and crossing, too, that has eost the Southern, railway several damage suits. ' The people of Ashevllle and West Ashevllle have protested strongly agntnat the Smith bridge crossing nnd some day that that crossing will have to be elitnlnut od. I.

Some Glimpses of Inside His tory as to Tar Heel Patron age Cowles to Visit the White House Today. OFFICE OF COLLECTOR TO STAY IN THE FAMILY Logan Is Slated tor Marshal Some Complications Race for Ashe villc Postoffice Is Still Open. (-m-i mii in i in.- Miionir-nrvtB. WASHINGTON, Dec. 16. Heel patronage matters again under coiisiderathit Special to The inzetle-News. Tar ' were 11 to day. Two causes lud to u revival of this topic. It was whispered about ' that McVeagh of Alamance, who has leen figuring in the mnrshiilshlp talk, has heard his patronage death-kuell; : and the prospective visit during the day of Congressman Cowies to tho While House. in the course of the conversation the gentleman from tho Klglith is ex pected to tell the president thnt the patronage program tentatively agreed upon, which gives the marshalshfp to W. K. I,oi:iin of Ashevllle, is ngreealdi; to him. The matter of the eolloctor shlp will likewise receive considera tion and, while Mr. Cowles has been strangely reticent on tho subject. It Is Ihe understanding here that the position will cither go to Collector Jtrnwn nguln, or that the position will he kept iii the fumily, and thnt It will go. In case Mr. Crown should not seek re-appolntment, tn I- Clint Wag ner of Stutcsvlllc, his son-in-law. Some arrangement satisfactory to the present collector Is certain to bo made. Wnry of An Agreement.'., . ' . Now as to the part McVengh of Alamance is playing In the marshal ship contest. A long while ago, while, the eastern Judgeship was being agi tated with a violence seldom observed In the political world, republicans of prominence, who direct party mat ters In general and patronage mut ters In particular, were desirous of securing the powerful Intervention .of. Senator ixon of Montana, but a na tive of North Carolina. It was felt that Mr. Dixon might help some in the effort to prevent the calamitous appointment of a democrat. Mr. Dixon, n good party man himself, and having 11 measure of -sympathy for North Carolina republicans In their sufferings, agreed to lend n helping hand, but In the meauwhllo he thought that the position of marshal should be given to his kinsman, Mr. MeVeagli. This was agreed to, be cause the aforesaid lenders were sore ly In need of help; and then of course thertveamu 11 time when they regret ted having entered Into such agree ment. They favored a different ar rangement of the slate, and when their troubles were laid before Sena tor Dixon be proved amenable to rea son, nnd both he and Morehend iiki d that Congressman Grant, since there was nothing else In sight for him, and every congressman must have some recognition, must name the marshal. McVeagh came to Washington the other day. but the day before he left Morehend wrote him It was no use, that It was all over and llrant would be permitted lo name 1ogan without further lUfHtion, r.inhnrrnHMiig for Morehend. Morehend has experienced consid erable einhnrraaxmrnt over this sit uation. As an III fate would have It, he had endorsed MeVcugh. asking for the marshiilshlp for Ills district, and he therefore found it difficult to serve his friend, Thomas Settlo, who has never hnd much yearning for th position of district attorney, but would have been very glad to receive the appointment of collector. As More head has found himself In a position where ho could neither come nor go In state patronage matters. In so for ns his Ashevllle friend Is concerned, he Is still scanning the horlxon for something equally as good abroad. Moving In a Mysterious Way. -Those gentlemen Identified with the Morehend-Hottle camp are said to be moving In a most mysterious way their wonders to perform. Two or three days a;tn they were anxiously awaiting the return of Secretary Knox, and It is assumed that they desirable; supposed ' it. Settle have spotted something but If I so. Grant, their friend, knows nothing of is not asking any aid from (irnnt, al though a resident of, his district, and teems to be relying wholly upon the sctivily or Moreliead. Grant Is not consulted, and ho Is not taken Into the confidence of ths people who have presumably been lined up with him In political matters. Meanwhile ar ticles continue to appear In crrtaip papers articles obviously Inspired telllnrt how Intense are tho sufferings of Mr. Grtmt In these political matters and what a fine position Is tn be given to Mr. Kettle abroad, a position whleh Is certain to prove more remunera tive than that recently held by For mer Congressman Pearson.
