Loves Young Drop.

A pair ofpicnickers Of San Francisco
had Rthrilling experience the other day.
There was a large picnic. It was over,
and tho company were waiting for the
train at q station near q high trestle
bridge. It was some minutes till train
time, and young couple thought they
would take q walk on the bridge to en-
Joy the delights OF love-making togeth-
er with the sensation Of looking down
into the depths Of the gulf beneath
them. They had made their way about
fifty yards over the chasmwhen gravel
train cameShooting around short bend
in their faces. A deep cut had hid the
train till it was almost upon them. 1t
was IN awful situation, and the lady
comprehenled it ut once, and did not
lose her presence Of mind, as events
proved. They could not possibly get
OF the bridge before the train would
overtake them. The engineer whistled
down brakes, but it was evidently i'm.
possible to stop the heavy train before
II would be upon them. II was within
q few yards, and the crowd OF pionick-
ers stood but q hundred yards of pet
riaed with horror. There seemed to be
no escape whatever for the luckless
couple. Their mangled bodies would
evidently be dashed into the chasm.
