BIG STICK'TO FALL ON SOUTHERN ROADS All Railways in Southeast Will Be Prosecuted for Combining. PRESIDENT CASTRO’S WIFE TRIED TO SAVE PAREDES According to the atorlea going the rounds, th* trip of the city officials and the firemen's drum rorpa to the Janies- ' town Exposition was a decidedly ex citing journey. ■ The first Incident to jolt the Allan tans occurred last Saturday night while the train was speeding through the country In North Carolina. Recorder Broylea and two or three others were seated on the rear platform of the ob- rprvxtton car, while the remainder of the Jolly party was Inside, telling Jokes and other thing*. Suddenly the report of a plstrfl came from the darkness near the track and a bullet crashed through one of the windows, narrowly mlaslng several of the party and throwing bro ken glass Into their face* ! Incident No. 3 occurred Sunday morning, only a few hours later. While atlll rumbling over the rails In the Old North State, the train ran over nnd killed a negro man. At the time of the accident the city official* and members of the drum corps were eating break fast In the baggage car. The train waa three mile* frotn the nearest station and something had to bo done with the crushed and mangled form of the dead man. Accordingly, the train was stopped, the dead body picked up and. as the hungry Atlantana were In the midst of an enjoyable meal, was brought Into the Impromptu dining car and laid on the floor, a few feet from the break fast party. This was more than they could stand. Atlanta people can go up against some pretty stiff propositions, but at that grewsome sight every man In the party suddenly lost his appetite. The remainder of the meal waa left un. touched.
