day evening, at a time when the
Portland train was due, tw o au-
tomobobiles crossed over the
tracks at a good gait without
either ot the drivers casting so
much as a mete glance to see if
the train was approaching. On
the following morning a team
crossed the track on West First
street just in front pf the swift-
running train, apparently escap
ing by a scratch. Unless a halt
is called on the reckless daring
of this kind, the Graphic will not
have to wait long for the publi
cation of the obituary. The
electric trains don’t make half
the noise made by steam trains,
and often when the breeze is
blowing in the opposite direction
the approach of the train at a
crossing can scarcely be heard at
all. Hence the necessity for cau
tion on the part of those who
are crossing the railroad tracks.
It is better to be sure that the
