as she saw the engineer put his hand
on the throttle valve.

The sudden arrival of a solitary
engine, containing two men and wo
man, startled the station master, and
he came out to see what it meant
He seemed to guess at the truth, for he
said:

miles out. Twas inside when ii passed,
and didn't see it until it had got past

How long it took to fill the tender!
The engine stood hot and smoking by
the water tank, and the water came
out in a slender stream, while the poor
mother stood looking on, fearful and
impatient.
"Good by! I'll put up the pipe
Heaven helpye!-the up grade"
The rest was lost, for the engineer
shot ahead on and on ont over the open
prairie. The water tank seemed to
sink down into the earth, and the
shining rails stretched out longer and
longer behind.

glance can see yet; for years il haunt
ed me, and even now shudder TO think
OF tit was so wild. 1t seemed to me
that the minute he caught my eye he
endeavored TO escape his fate, but it was
too late. The engine struck and threw
him bodily clear over the pilot-house.
As he went over it seemed as il in the
twilight, he turned his eyes and hands
toward me for help. He struck on the
hind edge of the tender, and slipped off
between the baggage-car and tender, and
the whole train ran over him. The first
stroke must have killed him though"
When he had Gaished this CHASTITY
Renaissance, Jacobs wiped the perspir-
alton from his corrugated brow and
make tour Of inspection round his en-
CINE. Returning satisfied, he contin-
ued:
"One of the most curious things that
lever heard tell of, though, befell me
one night, about midnight, at Cam
bridge. had been ordered out to con-
duct an extra passenger of three coach
es to Columbus. We were going pref
ty lively gait and | was in the forward
car smoking, when at Cambridge |
glanced out of the window and was sur
prised TO catch glimpse of the light on
the end of the Pullman. My curiosity
was aroused, as there is no perceptible
curve there, and went out on the plat
form. Would you believe it, why, the
switch had been out of order, and our
rapid transit over il had thrown il open
a.V- - a.. ,W,l - . s.h Nwtrn
OF the Pullman. The sleepers, you
know, are set on the trucks by means
OF pivot. which permits the truck to
turn square under the car. You may
Judge OF my surprise, when standing on
the platform | saw the front trucks of
the sleeper coming down the main track
and the rear ones following on the
switch. Well, just stood in amazement
until when We reached the other end of
the switch, the rear trucks resumed
their proper place and all went as be-
fore"
Jacobs, among his other many re-
markable feats, run for two years with
the average use OF one gallon OF oil TO
every 254 miles. For this he was high
" complimented by Hon. II. J. Jewett.
At his own request he has been pen
stoned off by the road, and the other
day was installed into his place as engi-
neer OF the stationary engine at the rail
road shops in this city. Mr.. Jacobs is
q modest, unassuming man, and 1t was
some time before we could induce him
to talk freely about himself. In the
whole sixty-four years of his life he has
been industrious temperate and honest,
and deservedly stands high in the esti-
nation of all who know him.

neuralgia in the head, which he himself
had tried to cure, sent for the former,

goOd-day; surely you cannot expect
fee for it, My physician was sum-
moned recently to the bedside OF wo-
man who had neuralgia in both sides,
and so violently she alarmed the whole
neighborhood by the screams which her
intOlerable anguish wrung from her.
She was taken from her bed and borne
near the fire. In such severe cases a
heated iron is not energetic enough. lie

weeks ago one OF our brilliant artists
was invited to shoot by the owner OF a
chateau in whose grounds there are
wild fowl in abundance. He woke, on
the morning after his arrival at this gen

Physician. He told the doctor what to
do. The latter declined to take the re-

"But assume all responsibility" The
doctor applied an iron rod heated TO
white heat, but so awkwardly that the
artist has scars the size OF tive-franc
piece on his thigh. lie was nevertheless
cured ahd enjoyed a weeks sport with

Correspondence OF the Register.
LEEDsvILLE, w. Va, April 5.
Not seeing anything in your valuable
paper for sometime from this place, |
attempt to give your readers Anew items.
The weather is quite cold for April.
1t has been showing almost constantly
for three days.
The wheat crops are not so encOur
aging as they were last yearat this time.
Flowing is the order of the day, but
farmers have not made as much prepar-
alton for large crops as they did last
spring.
Maple sugar has not been made in as
large quantity as last season.
Our people are waiting patiently for
the F., w. Va. & ;. railroad. We are
willing to sacrifice almost anything To
have the road through our county. Mr..
Brannon's letter from Weston, printed
in the REGISTER sometime since, misrep-
resented the facts in the case. The peo-
who are acquainted with the route eX-
amined by Mr.. Hays, and with the pro
posed route by Mr.. BrahnOn, know that
the former is superior TO the latter.
Last Monday, Deputy Marshal Con-
nor, accompanied by another gentleman,
proceeded to the house Of Jacob liner,
an illicit distiller, on Cheat river, and,
after searching it for mountain dew,
proceeded to the still house and wisely
cutting the still to pieces and breaking
all the accoutrements for making the
superior stuff" returned TO their
homes with happy hearts. This is a
piece of work that has long been ex-
pected by the neighborhood. This still
has been the curse of this community
for several years. II is to be hoped
that this will put an end to their big
times, as they call il.
Our efficient sheriff is paying off near
" all orders, on presentation.
Under the excellent management OF
our worthy Superintendent A. +. Will
moth, our schools are progressing finely.

done in the conventional designs, which
are simply designs in straight lines.
The golden rule for house decoration
is that Of general unity of design and
harmony Of effect. A uniform scale OF
furnishing on a moderate scale OF outlay,
with taste rather than outlay as the i'm
portant factor, will always secure results
OF comfort and elegance; for q judicious
economy is always elegant, and there Is
nothing more utterly parvenu than os-
tentatious display. :,
There is now opening very practical
field of labor for the young woman In
our schools Of design. The pretty &C
complishments learned there can be
made available for earning a living.
which is very definite and very de-
sirable thing to do; and, after all, coming
down to facts and statistics, it is not so
easy a thing to do, for living means
great deal and is not wholly circum-
scribed by ones OF board bills.
