4 DANGEROUS RIDE WITH DRUNKEN En-
GlxEER.-[Frum the Altoona (Pcnn.) 1r'-
bunc. A few nights since the locomotive of
Il train on the Pennsylvania railroad vas run
between Pittsburgh and Altoona by an ell
ginecr who had unknown to the conductor
become considerably intoxicated in the
former city. At times, Mt the most dangerous
places, the MIN put tho engine to its utmost
test-torty five and fifty miles per hour. But
whenever he saw a red light he reversed the
locomotive and brought into operation the
patent air-brake. The stoppages on the
route from Pittsburgh to Altoona OH this ac-
count were very many, and the train was
several hours late on arriving at the latter
place. The peculiar movements of the train
greatly excited the passengers and filled
them with painful amazement. The con-
ductor had become informed Of the engi-
neer's condition. but he could find no one to
whom he could entrust the responsibility of
running the train. He studiously kept the
secret from the passengers lest its divulSe-
ment would fill them with terror. NOtwith-
standing the dangerous hands in which
probably hundred lives had been placed
the train reached the end of the engineers
run with safety. 1t is needless to add that
the drunken employee of the company was
promptly discharged.
