Officials of the Virginia Railway and Pow er Company are held "censurable for dereliction of duty" by the In terstate Commerce Commission in a report today on a collision be tween an electric train of that com pany a freight train on the Virgin ian Railway at Fairmont Park, Va. July 11, 1914. when seven passen gers were killed and 88 passengers and employes injured. The report says that the motor man of the electric train staled he was asleep until his train, going thir ty or thirty -five miles an hour, was within two car lengths of the grade crossing where the collision occurr ed. Investigation showed his rest time was inadequate. "This condition" says )he report, "was known by the operating offic ers of the Virginia Railway and Power Company, j et no steps were taken to correct ic. Operating offi cers of a railroad who permit a con dition of this kind to exist are cen surable for dereliction of duty to the public which relies upon them for safety in train operation. Steps should be taken at once to arrange the working hours of the employees of this road so as to give them an opportunity to secure proper rest; until such action is taken the trav eling public is constantly in danger pf serious accident." .. The1 report suggests that at cross iugsdike this one, where traffic is deftse "there should be either a sep aration of grades, an interlocking jjJant, or derails to require electric trams to come to a stop. .

Part of what she has to say (allows: "My mother is a minister's wife. Often since I have been out in the world has my blood boiled to think of what has been expected Of her, and what has been done. "Why don't people expect the doctor's wife to hear all the phys ic il symptoms that isn't easy to speak about to her husband, and give her advice? Why doa't they expect her to entertain all the pa tients while waiting for her hus band's at teution : They dou't ex pect the lawyer's wife to give legal advice nor the wife of any other professional man to do her share of his business. "Yet the minister's wtfe is criti cized if she keeps a maid, but hei children must all be neatly combed and dressed, her house must always be in order, her gtrest room always ready, her table always jopplied, and she must be president of all the women's societies and solicitor for all the socials. It is a wonder she isn't expected to collect her hus band's salary. COLORED SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVEimON Rev. J. M. Taylor, a worthy colored minister of this place gave us a call Monday morning and telis. ut that the Colored Baptist Sunday Schools of Southern Granville held an enthusiastic conventioa at Rock Springs church, near this place on last Saturday and Sunday. The convention was composed of 13 Sunday schools of Granville, Wake and Durham counties, and was largely attended. Rev. Taylor says the Sunday School is weilding a powerful influence in awakening a spirit of moral recti tude among the colored people whom he serves as-pastor, especial ly among the young people. That plans are being sought to save the the thoughtless boy from ruin, and the spiritual and moral uplift of-all the people. Rev. Taylor is Presi dent of the Association. Healso tells us that he has recently reciev ed a call to the pastorate of Allen's Chapel, colored Baptist church near Lojisburg, Franklin county. He is already pastor of a number of the largest churches in this association, of which he is moderator. 1 too, could say to myself; Tt no longer a chaos, but a world, or even worldkin. Produce !'

Application for a jury 'trial -made by hrt attorneys in a wdt of hab&itt corpus1 was -granted today by So- prtme court Justice Hendricks, who set the atrial for May 17. Justice Hendricks made It dear that the jury wat-called in "'oaid the court by thoir advice," aud that the finding of the jury- wold- not be'bihumg if the court watut i(le1 that it wwnot in accord witW the evidence and vrivh justice.
