A Fast story.

An Englishman was Dragging Of
the fast speed on English raill Dads,
to Yankee traveller seated at his side,
in one of the cars of a " fast train"
in England. The engine bell was
rung, as the train neared a st4tion.
1t suggested to the Yankee an oppor-
tunity Of " taking down his COM
panion peg or two"
~ hats that noise" innoc, ntly
inquired the Yankee. oa
"We are approaching a town, said
the Englishman, they have TO COM
mence ringing about ten miles be.
fore they get to a station, or else
the train would run by it before the
bell could be heard. Wonderful, isn't
it? | suppose they havn't invented
any thing like bells in America YETI"
"Why, yes" replied the Yankee,
we've got bells, Dut can't use them
on our railroads. We run so tarnal
fast that the train always keeps head
Of the sound; no use, whatever, the
sound never reaches the village till
after the train gets BY"
Inceed," exclaimed the English
man.
"Fact," said Il e Var kee, chad to
give up bells. Then we tried steam
whistles; but they would mt answer
either. l was on locomotive when
the whistle was tried. We were going
at trem endous rate hurricanes were
no whar; and had to hold my hair
on. We saw a two horse wagon
CT ossing the track, about FIVE miles
ahead, and the engineer let whistle
on, screett hing like a trooper, il
screamed awfuIly, but it wasn't no
use. The next thing l knew, l was
picking myself out Of pond by the
road side, amid the fragments Of the
locomotive, dead horses. broken wa.
gon, dead engineer lying beside me.
Just then the whistle came along,
mixed up with some frightful oaths
that | had heard the engineer use
when he first saw the horses. Poor
fellow F! he was d, ad before his voice
got to him After that we tried lights, /
these would travel faster
tLan sound. We got some SO power
full that the chickens woke up all along
the road when we came by, supposing \
it to be morning. But the locomotive
kept aheadsof it still, and was in the
darkness, with the light close on be-
hind il. The inhabitants peliIioned /
against it; they couldn't sleep with so
much light in the night time. Finally
we had to station electric teIegraph4 4
llong the road, with signal men to
elegraph when the train was in sight;
md | haze heard that some of the
asst trains beat the lightning fifteen
minutes every forty miles. But l
ant say as that is true--the resi- |
NOW 10 be so.
