Centennial Curi0sities.

Two notable women now at Philadel-
pbia are mentioned at length in The
Press. One of them runs the steam
engine in the women's pavilion which
works four looms and printing press.
There, says The Press, in a light-brown,
neatly-trimmed dress, really dainty in
it's delicate texture, and as smooth and
clean as though the wearer were
flower-girl instead of an engineer,
could be seen young, medium.siZed
lady, whose regular features, intelli-
gent conversation and refined manner
proclaimed at once the presence of a
daughter of American nObleness and
culture. The steam engine with its
undeniable heat and imaginary dust
and smoke, together with its palpable
noise, was there in all its blackness
and power, but in the place Of the av.
erage engine-te with his dusky
skin, matted hair and dirty blue over
ais, was to be seen a lady who could
have passed directly from the engine
house into drawing-ro0m. and graced
the occasion to perfection without
change Of dress or manner. IS
Ina conversation Miss Allison said
that she had been brought up in a lit
tie place near St. Catharines, in On.
tario, and that from a child she had
been lover of machinery and spent
much of her time in the large saw and
@grist mills which her father then
owned. These were run by engines
of from 200 to 800 horse power, and
though She sometimes pretended to.
run them for an hour or two she did
not think any lady would have sufa-
cient strength to perform all the work
of managing such monsters. In an.
swer to q question relative to the pos.
sibility of women running engines, as
a regular business, She stated that
there were thousands Of small engines
in use in various parts Of the country,
and that there was no reason what
ever why women should not be EN-.
ployed to manage them. The work
was less tedious than almost any Of the
usual vocatforis adopted BY women,
and an engine requires Tar less atten-
tion than q woman gives to q child in
her care. For her part, she said that
though this was her first practical ex-
5perience she found 1t less tiresome9
than any other work she had been
called upon to peri since adverse
fortune hid mad0 Sit necessary for her
to earn her own living.
q IN addition to the fact that the faith.

conservatory, all stocked with came

mind you possess is worth thousand
houses.
And Rachel felt something warm
and wet on her cheek, like tear. as
the old gentleman stopped to kiss
her.
When Hugh came home, to find his
little wife upon the verandah, all wei.
coming smiles to greet him, he ex-
claimed, "Why, Uncle Ben this is a
perfect casket -

And Hugh read in the tone that his
young wife had won the capircious old
gentleman's heart.

A Story That Ought to Live Forever.

From the London Era. ..=.s.... "
There comes to us from the Western
district a story on the details of which
a Bret Hartc or a Colonel John Hay
would found a poem. The other day a
gang of laborers were employed stack
ing blocks of stone ON a permanent
way of the Great Western Railroad,
between Keynsham and Bristol. In
fact, the operation of stone stacking
was carried on within few yards of
the Brislington tunnel. 1t was at the
time of day when the most wonderful
express train in the world, called the
''Flying Dutchman," was expected,
and by some unlucky accident large
block of stone rolled down the embank.
ment and lodged on the railway line.
At this instant the roar of the ssFlying
Dutchman'' was heard in the tunnel.
There was not moment to be lost, so
swiftly down the bank sped one of the
brave navies to remove the stone and
save hundreds of innocent lives, or
perish in the attempt. He had a wife
and family at home, but he never
thought of them. His life was in his
hand, but he never thought of that.
OOWA OAA0 SOccp cI1Udllhulc11I Sp0u Lu0
brave fellow, nerved with the com.
bined strength of Sisyphus and Atlas,
to move the stone and save his fellow
creatures.
On sped the .Flying Dutchman -
.'Quick, for your life Jim,' shouted
his companion on the bank. Alas! it
was just too late; the stone was rolled
out of the way, but the hero was cut
to pieces by the fangs of the murder.
GUS train. This is as Grand and noble
story as ever was told. 1t is finer
than the tale of slim Bludso," the
moral of whose story is told with such
impetuous vigor and truth by the au-
thor of Little Breeches:''
"He know d his duty, dead sure thing,
And he went for it thar and then;
And Christ amt agoing to be too hard
On 4 man that died for men.
If ever there was a brave fellow who
laid down his life for the sake of his
fellow creatures, it was this hero of
the Brislington tunnel. His wife and
children ought to be looked after, and
have no doubt come under the consid.
Grafton of the citizens of Bristol.
But the story ought to live forever.
