A Railroad Race for Life.

An exciting race occurred on the
Lehigh Valley railroad ten miles
above Pittston Pa, between a passen-
GER train and the flood, last week. Mr.
r. A. Packer, superintendent of the
road, was on the cars. The track was
flooded axle deep, and the tide was
descending rapidly behind the train.
To go forward was to encounter I'M
known danger. To retreat was an
impossibility. The engineer hesita-
ted. The flood was rising. Let her
60, said Mr.. Packer at is q race
for life or death. The excitement
among the passengers was intense as
the engineer sounded his whistle and
the train dashed splashing through
the water at full speed, the slaba of ice
pelting the rear car, which was con-
siderably smashed. When the train
reached Coxton, three miles above
Pittston, the round house was flooded,
and a few minutes before the telegraph
operator had been forced to abandon
the office to save his life. The train
arrived in Pjttston ahead of time.

fused to pay Oorson Sargent for keep

side of the case, Slack claiming $1,000
damages, which the Court ruled that
Orson Sargent should pay Slack
Whereupon Orson Sargent sued Ed
ward Sargent for said damage before
Justice Hatch, and Edward called for
Jury, which was granted. 1t being
proved that Edward Sargent allowed
his diseased sheep to run into Orson
Sargent's pasture and mix with
Lorenzo Stacks sheep, thus damaging
said sheep, the jury brought in dam
ages in favor ofthe plaintiff for S34.6l

The career Of Capt. Paul Boyn-
ton whose swimming exploits have
gained for him such decided promj
nence, is scarcely less remarkable than
was that Of James Lambert, whom the
pen of Charles lteade has recently i'm
mortalzed. Boynton has always been
remarkable for his love of the sea-
From his early CHILDHOOD he exhibited
an intense desire to be on or near the
ocean, and showed a great fondn ess
tor aquatic sports, especially for the
art Of swimming. When only II
years old he saved a man from drown
ing, and when he completed his goth
year he had rescued no less than 70
persons, His most daring exploit
was performed last October, when he
was lowered from u steamer off the
the Irish coast for the purpose of test
ing his swimming costume. 1t was
Boynton's intention to take the water
200 miles from shore and swim TO
Sandy Hook, but this the captain of
the steamer would not allow. On APP
preaching the Irish coast the captain
gave Boynton the desired permission,
and having inflated his rubber COS
tune, he stowel away in it sufficient
food for three days, compass, some
books, rockets, etc, and plunged in at
9 o'clock p. NJ. 1t was u wild, dark
night, the rain poured down and the
tide set dead against him, He was
tossed high on the waves, and, to add
to the loneliness of his situation, the
gale increased in violence. He was
fifteen miles from land, but his indom
table spirit conquered everything, end
he struck for the shore. Luckily the
wind favored him on the following
day, and after being tossed about for
twenty-four hours sea struck him
carrying him on; another and another
followed in quick succession, and in
an almost senseless state he was hurl
ed upon the beach. The apparatus
had behaved admirably, and having
Invested himself Of it he stood quit,
dry in his navy Uniform which hi
wore beneath.
