The Recent Accident.
The Daily Record of Greensboro
gives 4ome additional particulars,
which, in view of the great sympathy
existing In the city we print as
follows : It seems that Mr. Thos. J.
Trent was the only person who saw
Miss McDonald before the . accident.
He says: N
As he was walking along she passed
him, going in the same direction, that
is, south from this plaoe. She con
tinued in the same direction for per
haps two hundred yards when she
stopped, looked about and seemed to
be studying and then turned and
came back toward the eity. She of
course met Mr. Tront again and he
paused on. in a few moments he
heard the train coming and as it pass
ed him he says he turned to look
and saw the woman uu the embank
ment. In a moment more he says
his attention was attracted by a
sound as If the engineer was apply
iiu, the air brakes, and he was nnder
tL impression the train wus coming
to - stand still, but It was only ap
proaching the yard limits and was
ri ely slacking up as required to do.
1. -tays, when he looked vhe second
ti ad he did not see her and went on
hL way,. thinking no more about it
u-.il some one came to Mr. O'Con
no 's and told the news. ,
. i one of the crew of the incoming
tr. a nor any of the passengers knew
of the accident and it was some time
before any one passed and discovered
the accident.
J us chow she came to be killed is of
course all conjecture. She was on a
high embankment and after hearing
the train did not have time to reach
the end of it and evidently tried, as
her footsteps show, to stand as far
away as possible, which she could
have done had she remained perfect
ly still ; but It is quite likely that she
was frlghthene J and may have step
ped on the track, or the passing train
may have caught her clothing and
threw her upon the rails.
There was a slim attendance at the
lecture of Mr. Dagger in Metropolitan
hall last night. .
Ex Senator Clarke, of Craven, Is
here.
Ex-Senator Walser, of Davidson,
was on the flocr of the Senate today.
All the State officers vacated grace
fully today.
Miss Mary Boylan Snow has re
turned from a visit to Baltimore.
Mr.R. L. Prempert.of Philadelphia,
formerly of Raleigh, is in the city.
The ice embargo still continues,and
marhet wagons are scarce.
LOW RATES FOR DRUMMERS.
New York Sun : "Hello 1 Stopping
here? What are you paying ? Three
dollars and fifty cents a day ? Don't
you know better than that ? Why
don't you say you're a drummer ? I
know you're not, but why don't you
say so? Save you a dollar a day. -Is
it generally done ? Bet your 1 if e.
Thousands do it. Actors are the
boys for low rates, though. I got
into Savannah once on the same
train with a. theatrical company ana
happened to go to the same hotel. I
had got chummy with a couple of
girls in the troupe, and when I went
to the desk I registered for them, too'
to save them trouble. I was put into
a small room on the top floor with
another man that night and after
breakfast I went to the clerk and
kicked. The clerk was pretty lippy
end I called for my bill. It was
$1 0, half what it would have -been
u-der regular rates, for I had had a
lodging and two meals.
How's this?' said I.
" 'Why, that's the rate for theatri
cal companies,' said he.
" 'But I'm no actor, said I 'and
yoa just give me a decent room and
I'll take a fresh start.'
Well, I was treated flrstrate after
that. They had told me that the
rontTooms were all taken, but when
they found I was a drummer, you
bet that plenty of them were empty."
I TINY'T APOLOGY.
' There Is a little! girl of V street fire
: years old, who is very naughty nee
In a while. The other day sh got
angry at the rook and slapped her.
Her mother told her she must apolo.

MI won't do It," she declared,

"Very well. Tin ji," replied mamma,
mildly, "but if yOtjdo not I will not

This as too mueh'for the child who
had Set her heart on tb doll. 46 she

"Yes, you did, MMs Tin," answer,

RThe little girl looked at bar a

"I don't know." replied Rosa.
"Well," said Tiny, "it you
don't tell God I did It."
