C., dated Juno 2, says that "a rei>etitiou of t hi ( leveland school tragedy. came neai taking place at Rains school last n ight, about eight miles below Morion when a gasoline lanrtp flared up iti hind itie scenes between the sec ond and Ihird acts of the commence* Th? auditorium mi the I second door, uiih Only out- small exit, Up f the Mage, was crowded to capacity with men, women and chit* dun. tnevchjUlren being in predomi nance; The fa nip blazed up when an Attempt was ma<le to light it, the Uhiiu^ nearly teaching the ceiling.

The cur tains were adjacent to the exit and if they had caught lire that end of the auditorium would have been a roaring mass of (lames in a few minutes. The stairway, then, would have been cut ptY and the only chance of escape would have been through the windows which are high above the ground." Here is a stoiy that brings a catch of the breath. To an almost, uncanny extent the circumstances seem to have parallelled those leading up to the fearful Cleveland tragedy. Al though iu this instance there was no disaster, the incident should not pass unnoticed. The school entertainment season is with us now and the people all over South Carolina, particularly in the rural districts, must surely re alize that it has its dangers which proper care and foresight can avoid.

Electric Railroading Freak If you have nev^r seen a trolley wheel welded to the overhead wire you have missed one of the Interesting, freaks of electric railroading, accord ing to a 'man whose huslnws takes him on frequent suburban and inter urban trips, the New York Sun states. "I heard some trainmen on an up state road discussing a case of weld ing," said this traveler. "They told me that the wheel and wire became solidly fused into one piece. "At first I was skeptical, hut fur ther Inquiries showed me that the happening Is not unheard of. it Is especially likely to take place with j a heavily loaded freight train creep ing up a steep grade.^ The wiise of current Is so greatly emphasized that the wheel and wire become exceed ingly hot. Should the car stop un der these conditions the welding may tnke lUae-e quickly. At times the melting and fusing are .?*> complete that the starting of the train will drag down the overhead wires and stop traffic." Spiders Mado Useful.
