The curve in the road brought straight

and when the train approached the vicin-

started off down the ties on trot, occa-
sionally looking back at his iron pursucr

short trot the coyote discovered that it was
not to he trotting race if he was to have
a hand in it for much longer period, and
his gait was soon quickened to dead run.
The throttle of the engine was pulled out
till the hair on the locomotives cylinder
head stood on end, and the telegraph poles
went into retirement like shadows of a
nightmares colt. The haunted aspect of
the fleeing animal ahead still kept a dis
tance in the lead, although the train was
tuned up to forty Aniles an hour. and for
five miles the contestants in the race kept
an interested audience amused by the pro-
ceedings. II was a cold day for the coy
