A radio-operated safety device that checks speeding locomotives, automatically when dan ger looms ahead, was givtn a success ful demonstration over a ten-mile stretch of I 'ere Marquette Kailroad i track yesterday in the presence of of ficials of the I 'ere Marquette, the Michigan Central and Thomas E. Clark, of Detroit, inventor of the de vice. - * Following the demonstrations rail road officials >ai(l they <believed the invention, if generally adopted, would result in the saving of thousands of lives by preventing railroad accidents and millions of dollars in equipment : destroyed in wrecks. By means of a radio system eon trolled signal, installed in the engine cab, it was demonstrated that the engineer can be forewarned of im pending disaster, making it possible to know many minutes in advance if danger is ahead. Should the enginoer bo disabled or dead, the system of control checks the engine's speed, and brings it to a halt at any danger point, at any time. The Michigan Central Railroad has equipped ten locomotives and ten miles of track between Jackson and Hives, Mich., with the ('lark radio control device. During the test th'? engine was traveling at fifty miles an hour when the red signal flashed. The. engineer gat down from his ,seat, under the resumption he had taken ill and could not perform* his duties, and immediately the radio device au tomatically applied the ail brakes and the. locomotive was stopped with the throttle wide open. Mr. Clark said that any tendency on the part of the engineer U>i?xceed the speed necessary in the "caution" zone results in a partial application of the brakes, so that upon entering the "danger"- zone he gets a further automatic brake application which brings ? the train to a stop in the [ shortest possible distance. Columbia I'retmman Killed Columbia, Nov. 1. ? D. B. Hosso, fifty-one year old pressman on the Columbia Record, was found dead late today under the front truck of a street car. The motorman, feeling impediment to the progress of the car, asked a passenger who was about to get aboard to. see if there was any thing in front of it and Hosse's body was found, badly mangled. When he was struck, the motorman could not say, he declared, as he was unaware that his car had hit anything. Mr. Hosse, a native of Nashville, is sur vived by Ms" wMow and several chil dren.

South Caro lina has been declared by tho Su premo court as free from liability for damages resulting from the death bf Thelma Sandall, attributed to the Use of anti-typhoid vaccine distrib uted by the state board of hoalth when the court dismissed for want of jurisdiction an appeal brought by the administrator of the estate. Thfc legislature by special act, authorized the bringing of the suit which resulted after much litigation in a verdict for the state. The! ma and Minnie, children of J. O'Neal &andel, living near Lone Star, Calhoun county, both died following inoculation with anti-typhoid vaccine and it was contended that death was due to pus germs present in the vac cine due to the negligence of the state health officers in preparing it. The cases tried together resulted in a ver dict for the state which was reversed by the state Supreme court on error. On the second trial they were pre sented separately and a verdict against the state for $25,250 was ob tained as damages for the death of Thelma, the state winning the other case. On appeal the state Supreme court affirmed the decision in the ease which the state had won and re versed the lower court in the Thelma case and on the grounds of error the latter was brought to the Federal Su preme court.
