FLAGMAN OR GATES.
A Mittir Thai A. H. C. Compsny Must, ,
- Not Neglect sn'y Longer. . J London, June S, The Tekio corres
- Complaints are heard every day of pondent of,the Daily Telegraph again
the custom lately assumed by the A. & ends interesting additional de
N. C. Company in the way trains are to"1 "val battle,' received from
switched. It has come to be a real . MoJ Sasebo and other points,
menace to life and Umb to drive on Btlited when Rear Admiral
Hancock street on account of this ap-
parently reckless switching. ,The Jour
nal has spoken before of the late hours
and early morning hours; observed .by
the company, in which the rest of citi
zens is seriously disturbed. - True, they
have done this ever- since the railroad
was built but there has not been the
aggravated nuisanee , developed until
recently and there is not a resident on
Hancock street but who will testify that
as bad as it always has been it is worse
now and the nuisance is increasing.
,' The necessity Of the placing pf either
a flagman or gates t each streVt cross
ing . of the railroad and also, at the
National Avenue, crossing la very ap
parent. There is great danger of seri
ous accident at these points.'- The cars
moving almost constantly along, 'bear
down upon the unsuspecting driver or
pedestrian , and engineers often forget
making the Usual warning signals when
approaching the corners,.
Last Friday a serious accident of this
nature was narrowly averted,' A ; ldy
was driving onto the Pollock street
crossing when a switching engine with
number .of cats approached her and
barely missed her carriage. ; No signal
was used nor was there any means of
knowing of the approach of the train.
This - is only one of many incidents of
the kind that are occurring almost dauy
and a different system must be used.9
It will be a saving of expense to the
cdinpany as well as comfort to' the
public to have a flagman at these cross
ings and it would not be a bad idea to
jtntahltah ratpo. X '
The railways are held as responsiVe
for the safety of the public who wa k
or ride tn carriages provided they are
on the common highway or m no way
trespaBsuig as they are for the safety
of the traveling public. It therefore
should behoove.-the A.'& N. Q. Com
pany to make a change in this respect.
The Board of Aldermen can hasten this
matter by appropriate legislation.

hoisted red flags on their topmasts
with Russian flags below them. The
crews were drawn Dp in parade order
on the decks and some : of ' the sailors
were waving flags. .'The . whole affair,
the dispatch says, was a ,, "contempti
ble spectacle." -.' i" - ,
The Sasebo correspondent says that
when the Japanese boarded the torpedo
boat destroyer Bodovi after completely
disabling- her, Admiral Rojestvensky
was the last man to be discovered. He
was hiding at the bottomiof the de
stroyer and was bleeding freely from
many wounds. The correspondent says:
It is understood that Admiral Nebo-
gatoff, who Is grateful for the kind
treatment given' by . the - order of the
mikado, will be i allowed to proceed
home within a few days, ... His surren
der was disgraceful and unaccountable
An examination of bis ships show that
though the guns were , rusty and the
bottom of the Vessels covered with sea
weed, there were no lack of fighting
resources.
There were heaps of ammunition and
no trace of damage by the Japanese
shells.

There is a general movement in the
cities of the state against tramps who
unfortunately, are in almost every com
munity creating scenes of disorder, steal
ing, insulting and In every way trans
gressing the laws of decency if not .the
statute..' They will not work, arresting
them does no good for if they are put
in jail they will get a meal or two at the
expensAof the city and the arrest is no
diagram tStlhem. -: They spread disease
by their fllthyfcabits and for sanitary
reasons they sbouIoVbe run out of town.
There are said to be a number of fel
lows who are lying around doing noth
ing, they will not work even when of
fered good pay and when- there is no
valid reason why they shouldn't work.
In spite of .the demand for help in field
and factory these incubi sit by idle; like
the Hly they toil not neither do they
spin. . ::- -1 : .-
Run them out and keep , them out,
their idleness Is a bad example and if
some radical measure Is not taken, soon
the city will be overrun with tramps.
