New Route to the East.

From the following, which we
are permitted to copy from letter
dated San Francisco, August 9th,
written by Col. Chalmers Scott,
Assistant Engineer G. P. r. r., 10
a member of his party here, 1t will
be seen that the Central Pacific
people are about to take prelimin-
AIRY steps to secure an outlet to the
East independent of Jay Gould and
his Union Pacific:
"As I was ready to call you and
the rest of the hoys to go to Wads-
worth, new scheme was sprung,
although we will get to W adsworth
bye and bye. Our present trip
will be to run line from Corinne,
near Salt Lake, up Bear river to
Soda Springs, then try for pass to
go East, crossing through the
Green river country by way of the
South Pass to the Sweetwater,
down the Sweetwater to the Platte,
then follow the Platte on East.
ut will give the c. p. r. r their
own through line to the Mississip.
pi river and shut off Jay GOuld's
coming west on the &. p. r. r."
The party, the same that was
with Col. S SOFT surveying the line
to Port Isabel, on the Cuff Of Cali
fornis, will leave for the North to-.
morrow evening.

"The Old Man Wants Them Guns

During the siege of Nashville, q
Confederate battery placed upon a
hill was seriously annoying part
OF Pap 1hnmas's line. Riding up
to Colonel Jam, 8 Brownlow, the oil
man said; "Colonel Brow n ow, I
want those guns, and want them
bad," at the same time pointing
with his sword TO the offending
battery. Drawing his sword and
stepping out In front of his line,
Colonel B. stepped in front Of his
regiment and said: "Men, the old
man says he wants them
guns, and says he wants them
bad. Everybody was silent for u
moment, and then six footer In
the ranks sung out: "Boys, If Old
Pap wants them guns he oughter
have 'em. Let's all chip in and
buy 'em for him, for 1t looks
mighty unhealthy up that way"
A perfect storm of laughter swept
along the line and then the boys
started up for the guns and got
them for the old man, though
many a poor fellow who started for
them never got back again.

RACING FOR LIFE.
How an Engineer Prevented g Railroad Ca
tastrophs.

Deeds of daring are never scare In
frontier settlements, and the news
gather or who Is always in sea rob
of the sensational and interesting,
every day meets with incidents
wherein the heroic nature of man
| stands in prominent relief. Ouiy
yesterday the Journal contained
the particulars OF u locomotive trip
during which grsat dangers were
| uwaveringly faced, and now an
other sct of bravery of u Railroad
engineer deserves attention. AT
Pantanr, Wednesday afternoon,
he brakes OF fiat Car loaded with
ties became looseped Ia some iuex-
pIicable manner, and the car began
20 move down the steep grade to-
wards Cienega. A bystander Jump.
ed aboard and endeavored to tight
eu the brakes. He, however, found
them unmansgeable. Another
tried and failed. A regular brakes
man then boarded the car and
quickly discovered that the brakes
we're out Of order. The car by that
time had increased it's speed to fully
twenty miles an hour, and to re-
main upon 1t would be almost sure
death when the first washout was
reached. He therefore called to
ehe other two men on the car to
lump, and this they did. Engineer
flank shaw at this time was sit
ting on his engine at Pantano, and
attached to his locomotive was
car filled with Chiuamen. He at
once realized the terrible result if
this runaway fiat car was allowed d to
proceed unchecked on its way, for
score or more of laborers
were engaged far down a deep
gulch in the Cienego Pass strength.
ening the braces of the broken
bridge that spanned 1t. They
would not be able to hear the ap.
proschiDg Car, and it would soon
crush through the weakened tim
bers and probably crush many be.
meath its weight. AS these
thoughts flashed through his mind
he pulled wide open the throttle
valve and started in pursuit of the
fast recediDg Car. 1t was a race for
life, aud Snaw soon thundered
down the track at sixty miles an
hour, with the carload of terrified
Chinamen behind him. The fat
Car ahead was increasing speed at
every turn of the wheels, aud the
grade there is very steep. The To-
comotive, however, kept gaining,
and finally Saaw, placing the lever
in charge of his fireman, crawled
to the Nv catcher and, taking the
heavy coupliDg-rod in his hand,
stood in that perilOus position until
the car was reached. The chasm
where the men were working
came in sight, and still the fugitive
car was two hundred yards away.
He called to the fireman to open
wider the valve, and the laboring
engine made a luTch that showed
she had felt the Increased volume
OF steam. They sped on with
lightning rapidity. The space be.
tween them gradually lessened.
Shaw stood with the rod In Que
hand and coupling pin in the
other Finally 'hs few feet inter-
vening disappeared, and with a
deXterity that.comes from practice
and u cool brain, the coupling was
made. The locomotive was re-
verseh, and the train came to a
standstilI. and within fifty feet of
the bridge. This is the way one
man saved many lives.-Tucson

AS TO the little girls, II l were

the children of lady, are uniform

conduct themselves most modestly,
of all in England, I should say at
once "The little Princesses of

driving, walking, boating; and, on
none or these occasions, 1 venture
to say, did the wearing apparel OF
