A Man Jumps from n Moving Train for a Strnn o Ilrnson , Baltimore reports the strangest rail way accident of the past wcok , says the St. Louis Republic. A man about forty years of ngo was recently taken to the Maryland university hospital , whore on examination it was discovered that ho hud sprained his right ankle and broken two ribs. Ho said that there was some offensive odor In tlio cur , and that ho leaped from the train to avoid It. Kank tobacco is unpleasant to many , but It Is better to endure it for a tlmo than to risk life by a foolhardy leap. Even hnd the car boon pormentuil with assafevtlda it would have boon butter to endure a strain on tlio olfactories than to Incur bue'h peril as tills traveler , bv his own account , was willing to incur. The state ment Is probably oerroct. A man who hnd been Injured by muses beyond his control , giving him a fair claim for dam ages , would neit have boon likely to have inaele a statement absolving the company and throwing all blame on himself. AVlmt is really surprising Is that a man could have llv'eel for forty yearn and learned so llttlo. At times a convict \\lth \ u long jtonn e > f imprisonment before him risks a Hying leap , choosing the possibility of death rather than the cer tainty of captivity. No ono nooel bo sur prised at such cases. Even were tlio train nn express , a dcsporatu criminal might prefer Instant death te ) woarlnomo years. Suicides will occur from time to time , despite all precautions that can bo tnken. IJut this man is not described ns a lunatic. TIe wan not a fugitive from justice. Ho did not wish lo kill hlmsolf. llather than submit to temporary Incon venience ho jeopardized his life. To Ills crcelit , bo it stated , he possesses the vir tue of candor In an unusual degree. Many would hesitate ere admitting themselves guilty of the folly to which ho confesses. Kulli'oails In ( Jtnli. A communication from Salt Lake City published In the Denver UopuUuan pre sents n vitnv of tlio railway situation In Utah which indicates that in tlio course of a few years that territory will possess a railway system extending into nearly every quarter. Tlio construction of such a system of roads would bo tbo very best thing which could occur for Utah. Colorado's wonderful - dorful growth since 18SO is duo as much to the construction of railroads into remote - mete parts of the states as to any other thing. Tlio construction of those roads lias promoted the development of the re sources of the state and has opened up now localities for tlto settlement of now inhabitants. Utah is a territory of great natural re- surcos. It wealth is not confined nlono to tlio district of which Salt Lake City is the center. The bouthorn part of the territory is known to bo rich. There aio several very prosperous Mormon tattle- mcnts in the south. Tn diH'erent locali ties there are gooel mining districts , and there IB not the least question that the opening up of the territory by railways would lead to the development ot mines and bring Utah prominently forward na a mineral-producing buclion. The trunk-line roads nro not the only onejs which promote the do\elopmont of n new country. The Union Pacillc hns for moro than twontvyonrsboon operated through southern AVyoming , but It bus not had a great deal to do with tlio de velopment of that slnlej. What a now country needs in a great system of branch roads feeding the trunk lines with the trafllc of sections which would otherwise bo entirely cut oil' and whiuh would nisi enable those boctions to develop their re sources nud murkut their products. This is the kind of a system which it seems Utah will likely ooon secure. took Cold , s I took Sict , - ) 1 T001C UKSUF.T : I take My Meals , I take My Rest , ' AND I AM VIGOROUS ENOUGH TO TAKE ANYTHING I CAN LAY MV HANDS ON ; Hotting Hit too , TOR Scolt's Emulsion of Pure Cod Liver Oil and Hvpophosphitesof Limoand Soda or ONLVCURKD MY IlU'ip- icnt Coii.suiiiitiiii | HUT BUILT , MH UP , AN ! ) IS NOW 1'UlfING ) FLESH ON MY BONES j AC THE RATE OK A POUND A DAY.
