A Watchful Engineer-HOw He Pre-
 vented B Terrible Accident at a Draw bridge.
 BOSTON, Jan. 12.-By peculiar combina- tion of circumstances, the sudden breaking of Q bell wire on board the steamer Lancaster, in the harbor yesterday morning, came very near resulting in 8 terrible disaster to pas senger train on the New York and New Eng laud railroad. The Lancaster, large iron vessel, heavily loaded with coal, had passed the Congress street draw, and was approach ing the railroad bridge, when the pilot rang to stop the engine. The wire broke, and the engineer failing to receive the signal, the vessel kept on, striking the bridge with great force. The timbers were badly twisted; the bolt which locks the draw when closed was broken, and the rail- road tracks upon the bridge were bent about eighteen inches from their proper position. No one was upon the bridge or near the scene at the time, and tho Sunday morning inward passenger train was approaching, but few hundred feet away. When but 8 trains length from the bridge. the engineer noticed the dis connected rails. He reversed the engine and applied the air brake, bringing the train of five cars to stop about fifteen feet from the bridge. Had the train passed over it would have been plunged into the water at the side of the track, and it being high tide at the time the loss of life would have been great. The engineer is deserving of great credit for his watchfulness in discovering the accident al- most at the instant of its occurrence, and for his prompt act for the protection of the lives of the passengers The cars were unloaded. and the passengers walked to the depot A gang of men were quickly set at work making temporary repairs 50 that the regular Sunday trains might leave as usual The steamer sui fered but slight damage from the collision.

At fifteen minutes before 8 o'clock the first contact was visible, and at 3:53 the obscuration became total As the last ray of sunlight disappeared, corona of clear white light. entirely eneircling the moon, flashed into view, brilliant at the edge of the moon and passing towards the out limit of the halo. Next along the border of the lower left third of the moon appeared an irregular fringe of brilliant, sparkling, primitive red and purple light, while at the top of the moon there was bright yellow triangle of light equal in height to ons-sixth the diameter of the disc. A similar but smaller triangle appeared at the center of the right side of the moon and from the upper and lower right side broad, faint rays were projected. This appearance lasted thirty-one seconds, the corona remaining one minute longer. The sun disappeared behind the coast range before the eclipse had entirely passed. During the obscuration the horses of the party of observers showed signs of ex- treme uneasiness, and the fowls of the neigh boring ranches sought their roosts. At Sa- lenas, where the eclipse was also total, the thermometer fell eight degrees during the to- fa1itvo
