engine. The engineer had not even time
to give the alarm whistle when the en-
CINE swept over the calf, followed by the
entire train. Only cloud of
dust was visible behind the tram.
The entire carcass OF the
calf was hashed up into pieces that could
have been put into the frying pan. There
were small pieces of STEAK lodged all
on the trucks and aXles of each box, and
the wheels and bottoms of the boxes
looked as if q shower of grease had fallen
from the ground upon them. Underneath
the entire train had the smell Of a butcher
pen. So quick and easy was the cali
served up that the passengers inside did
not realize the slightest disturbance, nor
ever thought of the narrow escape of the
train being thrown of the track.
