HOW THE TRAIN WAS SAVED.

Gone night, about four years ago, and
just about this month";" the engineer con-
tinued, II was coming down this hill with
considering the season. pretty heavy
train. At Wilkesbarre, over in the valley,
which you will soon see, young lady had
got aboard my engine. She wanted
night ride, and was put on by the Super
intendent. She was perfect lady, and
her mother was in one of the cars back.
TO tell the honest truth las have often
said to my wife), never saw more
beautiful or game-looking girl. She was
very smallsized, dressed in what my wife
calls complete taste, and her figure was so
good, and her hands so small, and her
ways so frank and artlass, that | almost
wished she was my daughter. Her face
though, was what can't give you an idea
of. 1t was the most beautiful face | ever
saw 1t bad," proceeded the engineer,
warming, "all the intelligence of womans
and the simplicity of child's. And she
was so sprightly and loving altogether,
and asked so many questions, that, al
though had never had Il woman on the
engine but once before, | invited her over
here to my seat, and explained to her all
about how locomotive is run. showed
her how to manipulate the lever, which ad-
mits more or less steam to the cylinders
how the reverse lever is worked, and how
the tests of water andsteam are made. [
showed her how to blow the whistle and
ring the bell, and explained how the
brakes were blown down, and how warn

A TRUE STORY

One cold day in Winter lad stood at
the outer door of Il cottage IN Scotland,
Thesnow had been falling very fast, and
the poor boy looked very cola and hun
cry.
"Mayn't l stay, ma amp" he asked the
woman who had opened the door. I'LL
work, cut wood, 90 for water, and DO all
your errands."
"You may come in at any rate, until
my husband comes home" the woman
said.
There, sit down by the fire; you look
persisted with cold and she drew a chair
up to the warmeSt corner; then suspic-
iously glancing at the boy from the cor
ner of her eyes, she continued setting the
table for supper.
Presently came the tramp of heavy
boots, and the door was swung open with
a quick jerk, and the husband entered
wearied with his days work.
A look of intelligence passed between
his wife and himself. He had looked at
the boy, but did not seem very we'll pleas
ed; he nevertheless made him come to
the table, and was glad to see how hearth
ly he ate his supper.
Day after day passed, and yet the boy
begged to be kept "until Tomorrow" so
the good couple, after due considerations,
concluded that, as long as he was such a
good boy, and worked so willingly, they
would keep him.
One day, in the middle of winter,
pedler, who often traded at the cottage,

swere given on the approach of cross
ings. She took it all in, and said the
engineer, stretching his arm across the
boiler and clutching my sleeve, ''it was
the best lesson ever gave. Right up
around yonder about two miles from
here, just as was handling the reverse
lever, we struck stone or something on
the track, at nine o'clock at night. was
bending down at the time, the girl was
sitting where you are, on my cushion, and
quicker than lightning the lever few back
and struck me in the eye, and knocked
Newell, I'll be id if / know where.
Anyway, it didn't make much difference
for a minute or two, for l was just stun
ned. AS we were on the down grade,
with no need of fuel, the fireman was
back in the baggage car, and when l came
to, this young girl was holding on to my
head and tanning me with her toy of a
hat. 1t wasn't two seconds before | knew
what was to pay. The engine and the
whole train had started down this hill at
the rate of sixty miles an hour. | tried
to spring up and reach the lever. My
right arm and side and right leg we're
numb. my face and even my tongue
were so paralyzed by the blow / had re-
ceived that could scarcely speak. | was
so desperate that, more to attract the
girls attention to the danger than for
anything else, / grabbed her hat with my
left hand and threw it outside Of the
locomotive, and then managed to beckon
her ear down close to my lips and say:
Trains going too fast. Well be in
hell if you don't turn down the lever"
"She understood me in an instant
and it was time. The engine was rocking,
swaying, grinding and skurrying down the
track like beast with great bounds
Every second expected it would leap the
rails; it certainly was descending at the
rate of seventy-fve miles an hour But
that little thing sprang up here, clutched
the lever, motioned which way she should
shove or push it, got my nod, and reversed
the wheels like little man. Then she
whistled down brakes; there was no need
of that, FOR the boys had put on every
brake already. Inside of a mile and
half she stopped the train; and then she
knelt down all trembling and crying-and
now what do you think she said?"
81 can't guess" "
"Said she; Mr.. II feelas if l
should faint. Haven't you got some
camphor, ora little whisky?' And as
sure as you live she did faint right away
there-right in front Of the fire-box-
right on top of me. The fireman and
conductor came in and took her back to
her mother, and the fireman had to run
the train down to White Haven
York World.

goods, was preparing to go, when he said
to the woman:
"You have a boy out there splitting
wood, | see v pointing to the yard

II have seen him." replied the ped,
der.
"Where? who is hep
a Jail Bird" and then the peddler
swung his pack over his shoulder as he
said:
That boy, young as he looks, I saw in
court myself, and heard him sentenced to
ten months. You'd DO well to look after
him"
Oh there was something so dreadful
in the word Jail" The poor woman
trembled as she laid away the things she
had bought of the peddler; nor could she
be easy till she called the boy in and as
sured him that she knew that dark part
Of his history.
Ashamed and distressed, the boy hung
down his head. His cheeks seemed burst
ing with the hot blood, and his lip CULVER
ed.
"Well," he muttered, his frame shak-
ing, there's no use in my trying to do
better; everybody hates and despises me /;
nobody cares about me"
Tell me" said the woman, chow came
you so young to go to that awful place?
Where is your mother?"

of grief that was terrible to behold, "oh !

The woman was mother, and although
all of her children slept under the sod in

She put her hand kindly on the boys

from that time he should find in her a

the neck of that forsaken child, she
poured from her mothers heart, kind
