These -who am,familiar with the statistics in the matter bave had occasion to smile at the Untidy of some people about journeying on railway ears or steamboats. The fact is that, taking the relative num- ber of accidents as evidence, a person is safer on a railway train - than on the street. The statistics of accidents furnished by some of the insurance companies have been in- terestingly compiled by the Atlanta Constitution 'and corroborate these statements fully. Out of 4,000 given accidents, 681 were caused by failing on the pavement, while 143 were from slipping down stairs, with 157 due to miscellaneous causes, making a total of 981. Accidents from rid- ing in carriages and wagons are given at 421, which is closely follow - ';;"ed by that new form of accident on the bicycle, coming up to -413. It is shown that 265 persons were eut with edged tools, while 195 suffered from the falling of heavy objects. Kicking horses were the cause ot 131 The whirring of intricate machinery. from which one would,expeeta num- ber of accidents to occur, really has but a small percentage to its credit,. being only 107; 72 eyes were hurt, 69 fingers ohrushed, 55 people step- ped an nails in their stockings; and, singular to relate, out of 4,000 acci- dents, only 43 were due to railroads. The list shows that the least number of accidents come to those who pat- ronize modern modes of locomotion. EDITORIAL NOTES.
