A Good Rule for Capitalists.
An ingenious arithmetician has devised
a very simple and easily remembered rule
for determining how long it will take a
given sum of money to double itself at a
certain rate of interest. Divide the rate
I of interest into seventy-two, and the
qUOtient bo the number of year3 to
within a small fraction. Thus, at 4 per
cent, interest, the answer is eighteen
years, which is only one-quarter ot a
year too great, the exact time being
about seventeen and three quarter years
For six per cent, the result is one month
out of the way, while for eight and nine

which ate sure to please. The time and

General R. E. Colston returned from

business suffering very much from a se

General is stopping. W wish tar old

An Unforismats Accldont.
A serious accident ccnrred at the
W. A YT. R. R. depot this morning by
which one man will lose his right arm
while another received severe bruises on
the shoulder besides having several toes
on one of his feet badly crushed. The
men this injnred are named respectively
Bill Mack and Daniel. Middleton. The
former is employed as a section hand on
the W. & "vT.R. R. while the last named
is employed at the W., C. & A. depot
The accident occurred while transfer-
ing the trucks ot a sleeping car to a flat
car in the transfer bed, or pit, at the W.
& W. depot. The car, it seems, over
ran the chock 8 which had been placed
to check the wheels crushing the men
under it. and then when it reached tho
end ef the pit, where there is a second
inclined plane, the momentum it'had re
- w
ceived on the first incline in enter
ing the pit, reacted, so to speak, and the
same heavy car ran back again and caught
Middleton a second time, bruising
him badly and crushing his arm so se
rerely that the doctors say amputation
will be necessary. Mack, the other un
fortunate man, was pulled out from his
perilous position just in timo to prevent
his being run over a second time by the
car in its backward course. The injured
parties are both colored men.
Every attention in the way of medical
attendance, we understand, has been
given the wounded men.
