Ltnctiburg, Va., June 30.—0n ac cc unt of the failure of the air brakes to work, the Virginia Midland morn ing express ran at an uncontrolable rate of speed on to the bridge over James river, one and a half miles north of this city, and a corner of the smoking car struck the upright gird ers, throwing it from the track. The trucks of the car dragged the sleepers away for a distakce of one hundred feet, and the Washington and New York sleeping cars fell through the opening into ten feet of water, and gradually sank. Conductor William King, who was on the platform of one of the cars, was thrown into the river, and although he had two ribs broken, he swam to the cars and helped the passengers through the windows. Most of the passengers were taken out through the holes cut in the ven- The car filled so rapidly that I had to swim part of the way to the hole. All the passengers succeeded in escaping fr#uo that car and when it settled it stood just above the surface of the water. We all then shivering in our night clothes set about getting the ladies out of then car. They were screaming with fright but I must confess they did not do any more of it than the situa tion warranted. We could see the situation clearly by that time. Only the two sleepers had gone down. The other cars were off the track but they were still on the bridge and suffered no serious damage. Between the piers, however, it seemed that the bottom had dropped out when the sleepers got on and they went down into tbe river one behind the other just as they had stood on the track.” ‘•Among the ladies in the nearly submerged sleeper were Mrs; Plant, of Macon, aad her two daughters, one of them an invalid who has not walked any in two years. There were two other ladies, one of them with an infant only five weeks old. These -ladies, with the car porter, were shut off from escape and we did not know how soon the ear would sink lower and they be lost. Mr. Kontz acted on shore. One passenger clung to a car in a perfectly safe place, and called lustily for aid on the ground that he could not swim, but he got no I aid until the ladies were safe. An- I other man whose shoulder was dis located had to stand in the water up to his neck for quite a while. The conductor, while standing oa the platform trying to put on brakes, went down and was painfully injured. Captain Alford Tollison, of Spartan burg, S. C., was on the train and was the first to escape, although he is over I seventy years old. We were landed j UtJOu.l vUli JiiljjlL CiO liU,Sj improved condition. Ido not know the cause of the accident. I under stand the bridge was condemned sometime ago, and two weeks ago a contract for anew one was let out but no bridge could have withstood the terrible velocity of that runaway train. It was the most wonderful escape from death that I ever experienced.” THE BROWN DONATION. A great many parties have written us asking about the Brown donation fund- to the University of Georgia. We called on Major Lamar Cobb to find out what is necessary for a young man wanting to enter college to do that he may secure this fund, and were informed that the applicant must be 18 years old; his age must be proven by his father, mother or guardian; upright, of good moral character, apt to learn, of reasonable health and ambitious, to prepare himself tor usefulness.. All the above must be proven by certificates from county officers and physicians. Be fore entering college the applicant signs an obligation to repay the loan after he leaves college with interest at 4 pm' cent.-. No person about to enter the University or school shall be loaned less than fifty dollars per enied. Few of them appear to know that the law requires the keeping U p of mile posts and finger-boards at the cross-roads, and few of them seem to know that they can, under a law passed in 1881, secure aid from the county authorities in grading steep hills and doing other work where the labor is too burdensome to be required of the regular road hands.—Morning News. -- Somnolent lies the pickle in its briny bath and'in dreamy idleness the wad of chewing gum lies on the window sill.
