Darkness had not yst fallen and the
1-year-old baby girl pointed an accusing
nngsr at a Woodlawn oar which was
rapidly speeding toward town.
The accident occurred at about
o'clock last night. The tiny victim was
ths youngest dsughter of Jacob Kildow,
a blacksmith, who resides at (It Union

the back of the head, hurling her un

no . possibility of ths child having been
hurt in any other way.

wouldn't do a thing toward abating the

A. t sw minutes after th session began
a train was heard pounding Its way up

Just before the noise became deafening
Mayor Lane suggestsd to Mr. Vaughn
that it would be good tlms for him
to . talk . on th franchls subject.
Vaughn, nothing . daunted, rose . and
spoke vehemently. He spok at th ton
of his big voios, but only word or
two filtered through the confusion.

"This mattsr has been kept eulet for
months, but I Intend to speak on the
subject now," said he. Spm eight or '
nine months ago I prepared aa ordi
nance revoking the franchise of the
Southern Paclfio on Fourth street. It
came before the council bscked by a
f petlUotrwhOse like wss never presented
here before, representing as it did mil- .
lions of property, not only on Fourth
street, but all over ths city. The ordi
nance was referred to the Judiciary com
mittee, and there It has remained ever
since. ,-'.'-
"The railroad company was asked t
prepare a brief setting forth Its aid
if th case. This wss done without de-
ley, but still no aotion on fh ordinance
has been taken. I have asksd the com
mittee to make a report of eome kind

"This should not slumber forever In
