unusual presence of mind It told wo by who had received it from an officer of one of great railroads Alleghany TherPj the to informant wero both going a great contra And locomo tives made and kept there is tho very man If he wants any favor of road ho has only to for it The of coroo and jo he ho fitaya and may stay service or no till death re moves him The road grateful to to him and will always hold him in honor Many year have since the incident happened many more siijco the telling of the tale to my friends details and the coloring vary No doubt when you have fin the you will say why that was the very thing I would have done myself- Bat you have done it Hern is the story Puff It was hard work for the grade was steep and train long and heavy The engine panted as if ita strength was failing Aod no wonder For roilGt and miles up he of Alleghany moun tains it had been tugging its precious burdens there wero many miles before it should reach tho and tarry a while to regain its strength Much of the way than a shelf cut into the mountain with rising walla of rock on hand and deep ravines on the other And far up among the moun tains often oo the opposite aides of huge and gloomy chasms thn obser vant traveller would catch glimpses of what teemed to be curves and embankments of another road he would himself bo borne over these very chits and whirled around those very curves These changing scene kept the passengers in a tremor of half joyful half excitement Shall wo ever get to top of That great boulder looks as if the slightest jar would bring It down on What if the roadbed should give way here like avalanche Ob here come some How frail looks And what a diuy height f If it should break us oh dear Just then a quick sharp whistle was heard To those who heard it it aaid imperatively Down brakes and be quick about it tool In stantly the straining at their as if every life threatened Indeed it was their duty to stand by and use them ftt en waning People thrust their heads out the car windows soma hurried to the platforms and there was of nervous lioning tho matter Had an accident happened there any danger Nobody seemed to know Not informed And it was the gift of a blessed was not moment of uncertainty and subdued alarm would of anguish and disaster Par up le road the engineer had a glimpse of an awful peril It was a train of runaway freight can For a moment it was in around Then it was in the woods No engine SocompWJed no sign of life anywhere about it Nowhere on the at time was down du The can ware without no it and thero was nothing to check their descent Already they furiously and every second speed was A seemed inevitable- The destruction of life would bo frightful What should engineer do To stop bis train would not mend the situation To engine and go other way there was hardly for that It would only postpone the certain result and make it more dreadful because of the in creased headway of the runaway cart engineer viewed the situation on side- Plan plan him plan after plan dropped But It was all done with that wonderful speed that mind when under the stress of a flowing danger- In that brief time tho engineer lived hours Suddenly thero was a ray of hope a plan of safety Down ho This was tbo signal to which wo have already called attention tho that a front a the hundreds train Froe the from the train l he shouted to tho fireman The en gine was uncoupled and was left egging behind Now jump for There was no for parley leaped fell and scrambled to his feet again Then engineer put on fall steam from load of coaches the responded at once Now fight battle for ex claimed engineer as bo sprang from steps His quick eye had choson a favorablo spot on which to alight- Though thrown headlong with some force ho was on feet enough to his train roll y at lessening speed under full control of faithful That something serious had hap pened or was about to occur began to be clear to One or two bad seen tho fireman jump two or three engineer the larger number from tbo car windows had caught snatches of men that soiled and bruised and were trying to raise to their foot by the of the track AH was excitement and tutnolt Some began to leap from the cars Fortunately was lit tle danger no for motion of train bad nearly ceased Up the track meanwhile went iron monster to meet the Down track into fall sight came wild freight care with speed ao great that they almost rose from rail as they rounded curve Nearer and near the speed of each wits increasing Then they flew at each other in a mighty tigerJiko as if thero blood to be shod and nerves to bo torn asunder shook the hills- roaring cloud of steam burst in the while another of dust and debris boiled up and mixed confusedly with it- Then the shattered ends of the cars stuck out here and there through the smoke and grinding crackling mass rolled up Quivering in the air a moment it reeled and then went crashing down the embankment into tho vine below When steam and dust cleared ugly furrows in the roadbed splintered ties bent and broken rails and all nameless fragments of utter wreck remained to mark the of tho fierce encounter gallant engine a ruin but it had done service- It had fought d battle ill which hun dreds of lives and untold interest were at stake and it had won it Not a life of that precious company was lost not a member of it hurt by so much as a scratch With team of joy and they blessed tho engineer whoso quick wit and daring and caved them from fato that at one moment it seemed power to avert And to the poor locomotive that lay dismembered and useless on rocks below it had some thing akin to love and bravery and sacrifice of a noble soul The Value of Salt A toaspoonfuj salt kero sene lamp makes the oil give a much clearer
