Hoodoo "13".
Hoodoo "Friday 13" took passage
for Detroit on-'the north hound limited
on tbe Detroit, Monroe & Toledo line
yesterday morning at Toledo, and before the car had passed the Toledo
limits, it was put out of commission
through a break in the gearing. It
lay on a siding until the next car came
along when the 50 passengers were
transferred. This car was No. 7510,
(add the digits). It finally reached
this city 45 minutes late with the vestibule smashed and the windows stained
crimson with blood, after having
struck three horses on" the right of
way killing two ol the m. One woman
passenger thought tne car had jumped
the track, hit the telephone pole and
killed the motorman and at the sight
of the spattered blood she promptly
fainted. At Monroe the passengers
were again transferred to car No. 7515.
At the Rouge bridge the trolley jumped the wire, causing a pyroteeknic display which gave the nervous passengers another scare before reaching Detroit.—ilpnro«eor. Free Press.

Claude Guy has had his full share
of mishaps of late. Not long ago his
ankle was broken, and the other day
as he Was reaching for something on
a shelf he upset a hottle of carbolic
acid. He was under and facing the
shelf, but had the presence of mind
to turn his head in time to save his
eyes, as a considerable quantity of
the acid caught him ou the side of the
face and neck. He may carry sears
for a short time, but the turning of
the head probably saved his eyesight.

The Wabash railroad in renewing
station buildings, is adoptiug a style
somewhat similar to the mission type,
so common in the south generally,
also Mexico. Some of these buildings
have steel frames and some have
wooden frames, covered with expanded metal, hut the entire building including the roof, walls, floor and platform, is of concrete in its natural
state, which makes a substantial,
sanitary and fire-proof building, taking the place of the old frame buildings so long used, generally for railroad
depots.—Belleville Enterprise.    "

The Ann Arbor railroad is displaying greatly increased activity in putting its rollint stock into proper condition to handle its rapidly-growing
business. In the shops at Owosso 25
more men have just been added in. the
ear department. Engines Nos. 15 and
16, which had been destined for the
scrap heap, have been brought into
the shops and are heing rebuilt
throughout. It is stated lhat the
freight business of the road has increased to such an extent that the
company is now working al a disadvantage in handling the trarflc. It is
expected that the ten big freight engines recently ordered and which are
larger than any now being used by tbe
company, will be ready for service
within two or three weeks These will
be put into commission immediately
upon their arrival, and it is believed
that by their use the cumpany will Ve
enabled to handle all the shipments
promptly.'—News.

"Pittsburgh Perfect"
Fences The Best Because
1. Stays"are Electrically Welded to the strands forming a perfect union
and an amalgamation with the strands not found in any other fence.
2. All" stay wires are made as heavy as intermediate line wires. A
fence, like a chain, is only as strong as the lightest material in it. Think
tai» over carefully.
3. No wraps to get loose, to hold moisture and cause rust.
4. No projections to injure stock or tear wool from sheep.
fl. Stronger at the joints than any other fence. Welded together with
elortricity.
C.   Guaranteed that the wire is not injured at the joints.
7. (TUtiranteed adjustable to uneven ground.
8. Guaranteed that stays will not separate from joints.
9. Guaranteed all right in every particular.
10. Made by the most modern process and on the latest improved nia-
-•hinery.
11. Mort of the weak points in other fences are on account of the way
he stays are fastened.
Our stays are amalgamatdd with the strands by.means of electricity and
the strength of the fence increased a hundredfold over the strength of a
fence where the stays are wrapped or clamped on the strands.
You may pay more money for other fences but ypu cannot get as good a
fence as "Pittsburgh Perfect."

Hawk's Fight for Young.
When Christian Lehneis, superintendent of the Egg Harbor cemetery,
entered the grounds recently he heard
a noise in one of the lots surrounded
by cedars.
Investigating, he was attacked by a
large chicken hawk;, which was feeding five young ones. With no weapons
to protect himself, Lehneis was compelled to flee, but he Came to town and
got his gun. When he returned the
hawk and its young had disappeared.
Later in the afternoon he again
came across the hawk family, and the
old bird charged him again, but this
time he was prepared and killed it.
The hawk was a large specimen,
measuring four feet across the wings.
