A FUGITIVE SLAVE.
How lie was saved by Railroad I'm.
GInecr.

Mr.. CARROTS death reminds me Of a
story" remarked an old railroader not now
in service. II was before the war I was
running an engine on the B. and o. In
those days there were good many slaves
getting away from their masters in Virginia
and making for Pennsylvania. So the
owners dubbed together and established a
patrol along the B. and o. For more than
hundred miles they kept an average of
three men to every mile where there WAS
timber, Watching the track nights with dogs
and guns to catch any slave that would Ut
tempt to cross. One night was running
freight west. All of q sudden before me
in the light from my head lamp saw
colored man standing on the track. He
had heavy stick in his hand, and was
fighting for life with pack of dogs. Down
the track saw three slave hunters running
toward the negro. I tell you, it was sight
that made my blood boil. Acting on the
impulse Of the moment, I shut of steam,
whistled down brakes, and set up fearful
whistling. also released the safety valve
and made her blow off steam. 1 hoped to
brighten the dogs, and did. They turned
and looked at the big light of the engine,
and some of them ran away.
But the slave was nearly rs badly
frightened as the dogs. He stood notion
less on the track. To this day can see
his figure as 1t was outlined against the
darkness. 1t was statue of despair. Fear.
ing that We would run over him, Chamber
ed out to the pilot and shouted to him Just
in time. He reused with a start, Jumped
to one side as passed and called to him
to get on the train, which by this time was
running slow. 1 watched him get on, when
| gave her o full head of steam, whistled
of brakes, and we sailed by the slave hun
tiers SO fast they could not get on They
fired at me, but missed My fireman car
ried my dinner bucket back to the negro.
He devoured it like starving man. He
must have been peculiar negro for when
my fireman came back there were streak,
down his coal-begrimed face. He had been
crying. He said that niger had embraced
him with joy and prayed for him on his
knees on the top of box car. My bucket
was empty when it came back, and then
the fireman took his bucket to our passen-
ger. 1t was emptied, too. The man was
furnishing.
Well, that slave got into Ohio, and
after an investigation my case was laid
before Mr.. Garrett. To satisfy the slave
owners he discharged me, but got me jol
on the Pennsylvania road, and paid me full
wages all the time was idle"

THE ENaINEER,s STORY.
How Dog Rescued n Child from What
/. ans 3 seemed Certain Death.

v
- seemed Certain Death.
Yes, indeed, we have some queer little
incidents happen to u.s." said the engineer,
as he piled the oil-can about and under his
machine. :. Queer thing happened. TO me
one day about n year ago. You'd think it
queer for a rough man like me to cry for
ten minutes and nobody hurt either,
wouldn't you !? Well, did, and can al
most cry every time think of it. 1 was
running along pretty lively one afternoon,
when approached . little village where
the track cuts through the streets. Stacked
up little, but was still making good speed,
when suddenly, about twenty rods ahead Of
me, a little girl not more than years old
toddled on the track You can't even i'm
agine my feelings. There was no way to
save her. 1t was impossible to stop or even
slack much at that distance, as the train
was heavy and the grade descending. In
ten seconds it would have been all over
and after reversing and applying the brake
shut my eyes. I did not want to see any
more. As we slowed down my fireman
stuck his head out of the window to see
what had stopped for, when he laughed
and shouted to me: Rr
g Jim, look here r &S
looked, and there was big, black New
toundland dog holding that little girl in his
mouth, leisurely walking to the house where
abe evidently belonged. She was kicking
and crying SO that knew she wasn't hurt
and the dog had saved her. My fireman
thought II funny and kept on laughing, but
cried like a.woman. just couldn't help
It. I have little girl of my own at home"

Ph.losoph, Of Narcotics.

Agentleman who Is great fumigator'
iays TINT he has philosophical about smok-
srs, with this result: tam even-tempered,
quiet man never goes to an extreme in
choosing his oignr. A nervous man wants
something strong and furious mild man
something that smokes, and nothing more.
There is great deal in the way men handle
their cigar. If man smokes his cigar only
enough to keep it lighted, and relishes tax
ing it from his mouth To cast look OF the
blue curl Of smoke in the air, set him down
% IN easy-going man. He has keen per-
ceptions and delicate sensibilities. He will
not create trouble, but is apt to see it out
when it is once begun. Beware of the man
who never releases the grip of his cigar.

Rho, natisn, aud Diet.

Rheumatism Ia as often as not caused by
over-eating, and especially by over-indul-
gence In meat, which is certain to cause an
excess of uric acid, and render the body
liable, on exposure to wet or cold, TO an at
tack. We know that old people are proven
bially liable to rheumatism. The reasons
for this are not far TO seek. One is that
joints and ligaments nre harder and sitter,
and very often contain deposit---urate of
soda. Another is that. as q rule, people up
in years eat more than is necessary to sup
port life, under the mistaken notion that
they want deal Of nourishment TO keep
them up. ! say that, on the contrary, the
wear and tear of tissue is but trifing COM
pared to what It is in earlier manhood, and
that far less food is required. Therefore,
If an elderly person would live long and be
free Of aches and pains, and be calm In
mind-for that is great desideratum-he
Or she must live abstemiously, more or less.

club LIE and Matrimony.


Clubs were once regarded as antipsthetic
to matrimony. That irrational prejudice
against them ought now to have died away.
So far from beings hostile to domestcity,
their atmosphere is an excellent prepare
ton for domestic life. Mutual liberation is
the only principle on which, in the long run
man and wife i've happily together, and
what better school for intoxicating this prin
ciple could there be than the elubf For a
club Is an establishment IN which all who
belong to Il possess certain proprietorial
right. which they are bound to exercise in
such way that they do not infringe upon
the rights of others. The good clubman
ought, therefore, for obvious reasons, to
make good husband and q good master Of
a house.

What the Average Nymph Does When n
Drop of Water Touches Her Ear.
Iti1Asic CITY Letter ~ ne SdrGRHah NsTs-
Notwithstanding the complimentary
things papers say in their personal columns
about fair swimmers there are few, very
few, here. don't believe there are dozen
girls in Atlantic City who can swim half a
square. A few wears ago | could name
that many who could swim half mile,
The average girl is ambitious enough to
learn how to swim and she would will
ingly give years pin money
to be able to float, but as soon
as the water touches her ears or a little mp
pie breaks in her mouth she folds up like
measuring rule, clutches her best fellow
with the grip of a wise and blows like Por-
poise. There's no use arguing with her
after that; she was nearly drowned, she
knows il, and she don't care to 60 so near
death door again in hurry
There is no public place Oh earth where
the effect of personal adoynment is so easily
observed as tits at the seaside resort. The
girl who was in the surf in q bedraggled
bathing suit, with bangs as straight as lead
pencils and dripping drops of salt water
down her sunburned nose sits on the hotel
porch in the evening, ruddy, smooth and
clear of skin, frizzes crimped and curly and
resplendent in purple and fine linen Ii.

BEAUTY IN WOMAN.

Beauty rules with mightier or milder
sway in the bosoms Of all who answer to the
name Of man. There is time for it, and
with the time comes the development.
Beauty has always won man to its COM
mand, bowed him to its will made royalty
powerless in its presence, and has made in
ferior humanity part and tremble. g..
There Is no fixed and acknowledged
standard of beauty. The term beauty is a
vague generality, varying according to ma
tional, and even individual, taste AID judg-
ment.
The world of,faet aud the world Of fancy
are abunding in Instances Of the power of
beauty. Many Helen, Cleopatra and
Mary ofScotland have wrought upon nations
and individuals by the magic of their faces.
