The locomotive engineer drives his engine over a steel track with every precaution taken for safety. There are signals and signs along the way to warn him of danger, and if he disregards them he must pay the penalty by forfeiting his job. Block signals every mile along the track warn him of the movement of other trains, and written or- ders are handed to him when he leaves the station which he must obey to the letter. In addition to these precautions for the pro- tection of the public, the engi- ness must have a license certify- ing that he has an intimate knowledge of his engine and is a qualified engineer. He must pass a satisfactory examination showing that he knows the rules and regulations of the road, and his vision must be periodically tested for color blindness. Af- ter passing successfully all these and other tests of his qualifica- tions, there is still another show- ing the engineer must make be- fore mounting his engine. He must show that he is not addict- ed to the liquor habit. With all these safeguards, some written into law and some enforced by railroad companies equally binding as law, to pro- tect human life against incompe- tent and irresponsible railroad engineers, isn’t it about the limit of absurdity to permit any man, woman or child who thinks heg she or it can drive an automobile, to do so without restraint or res- triction? The daily record of the slaughter of human lives through automobile accidents due to inexperience, incompe- tency and drunkenness is becom- ing more appalling every day. Apparently indifferent to dan- ger, they race over highway and through city streets, dashing through street intersections, rounding corners and_ blind curves without slackening speed. In this situation it is no wonder that fatal accidents are of daily occurrence, and they will con- tinue until some stringent mea- sures: are adopted that will in- sure some degree of sanity and responsibilty on the part of every one who essays to drive an automobile.—Wallace Miner, GYPSIES APOLOGIZE. With an automatic revolver strapped to his waist, Marion Weber, Fenn merchant, Wednes- day appeared at a gypsy camp in Fenn and demanded that the nomands return to him a pair of shoes they had stolen from his store a short time before. Fearing that Weber would shoot and perhaps kill, the gyp- sies promptly returned the shoes with profuse apologizes for hav- ing taken them. Mr. Weber observed the shoes were missing after a gypsy woman and several children had left his store, where the woman had been making purchases. The woman, when questioned by Mr. Weber, declared she had not stol- en the shoes, but admitted that perhaps one of the children had taken them. When the gypsies saw the gun, however, they decided they were in possession of the shoes.— Free Press. Our ads bring big results. We repair all makes of bat- teries.
