A Good Low Ior Every Slate.
Our state railroad commissioners took
action for the public interest in forbid-.
ding a trolley company to cross the
tracks of the Consolidated Railroad
company at grade in Leominster. In
doing this, they have followed the pre.
cedent established by Connecticut,
which has had for several years a law
requiring a separation of grades at
points where trolley lines cross steam
roads. The principle of this law is to
protect the lives of passengers on both
systems by making collieionsimpossible.
The question of competition between the
two systems is too trivial to be consider.
ed when human lives are in jeopardy.
There should be nothing to interfere
with the movements of fast passenger
trains on steam roads, nor should there
be danger to trolley line passengers at
grade crossings. The Connecticut law
is a good one for every state to enact, in
connection with an equitable division of
the expenses incurred in the separation
of grades between the roads and the
community—Worcester Spy.
Mr. McGuire’s Heroic Act.
" Thomas '.C. Cavuungh‘s big gray
horse. driven by Wallace Crofut, creat-
ed asensatiou in Water street. yester-
day afternwu. He got away from his
driver and came tearing up Water
street at a terrific rate, turned into
Washington street, narrowly missing a
vehicle. But for the prompt action of
Thomas McGuire, Raymond Brothers’
right hand man, serious damage might
have resulted, as Washington street
was crowded at that time. Mr. Mc-
Guire, with a total disgard of his own
safety, grasped the horse by the rein,
and brought him to a standstill in short
order. His heroic action is to be com-
mended.
Bicycle Riding in Cold Weather.
One of the oldest wheelmen. as well as
one of the most active. was asked tlm'
other day, when the streets were covered
with snow, if he had laid by his bicycle
for the winter. “No indeed," replied
the veteran. “I shall ride every pleas-
ant day during: the cold weather. (,‘y~
cling on a bright, crisp day is the boat
exercise in the world if not taken in ex-

ground the pastime can be enjoyed it the
temperature is not above the freexiug
point. Oh no, people make a mistake to
stop their riding with the appearance of
cold weather."
