At Utlherton, attended a meeting of the Soldiers' Monument Associa tion in town on .Friday night and at midnight arrived at Gilbeiton. While standing on tho station platform ho heard a peculiar lotting of the car wheels as the train pulled out from the station and after the train departed he walkod aloug the tracks to see what caused the noise. Ho was surprised to find that a piece of one of the rails had been broken off near the joint. Ho found the piece about twenty feet from tho place It belonged. The displaced piece of mft was about ten inches long. Mr. James roaliited that the break would either have to lie repilred, of word sent to Malianoy Piano liefure the "Cannon Ball" oxpross was duo, or else something disastrous might follow. The station was closed and all tho pooplo in the neighborhood woro wrapped In slumber. Mr. James had 110 lantern and was therefore unable to flag a train In the darkness.
