On the Track.

One morning last week, as. freight
train, No. 5, was passing point about
three miles north Of Clinton, on the C.
St. L. & N. o. Railroad, the engineer
of the train, Mr.. D. R Staley, dix
covered two ra' Is on the track, in front
of his engine. The rails were of IRON,
and one was lying squars'y across the
track, the other was lengthwise the
track with an end propped up on the
cross raj. Mr.. Staley did not see the
distractions until too late to stop the
engine, and as the engine struck the
rails he helritwo sho fired from the
bushes near the -ack. Fortunately
the T Of on the engine struck the
rails and knocked them OF the track
and the train passed safely on.
The following morn g. at or near
the same place, Mr.. Krapps. engineer
of the same train, Nc. 8, WAS fired up
on five times, Id to his well balanced
equilibrium in Laying down with the

which "Isaac put out the cab-light,"
