s,owsst railroad Time on Record

Speaking of railroads" said the candy
pilgrim as he turned car-seat and slowly
Invested himself of his duster, reminds
me of a slow one in Kentucky. The only
way that you can tell the direction the
train is running is by the way the seats are
turned. | was on that train one day last
winter going from Russellviile out toAdairs-
vile, distance of only twelve miles. On
the same train was clothing man who
was fretting considerably about the slow
time it was making. Finally he concluded
that he couldn't stand it any longer and he
got out and walked. He got so far in adj
vance that he thought the train Lad prob
ably gone back, so he sat down TO wait fol
it. The exercise that he had taken hao
exhausted him very much, and before he
knew what he had done he had keeled
over and gone sound asleep between the
rails.
About 0 o'clock that night the passen,
gers and officers of the train were startled
by a continuous blowing of the whistle and
loud cries as if some one was in deep dis
tress. We Immediately went forward and
found to our horror that the train was
slowly but surely passing over the pros
trate form of our clothing man.
THE brave engineer whistled down
brakes and made a heroic effort to reverse
the engine. But, alas, she would not re-
verse worth cent. 1t seems that this was
the first live thing that this train had ever
caught, and that it intended to run over
this man if it took all winter.
ut had passed over his feet, and the
engineer said that if she continued to make
schedule time, and if the water did not get
too low in the boiler, it wonld probably ar
river at his knees by midnight. The poor
fellow seem to realize his sad fate, and to
appreciate the fact that death would sooner
or later occur.
He called for paper and pencil, and
there, by the dim light of the conductor 5
lantern, the dying traveller wrote his will
and prepared to make his trip 10 that land
where sorrows never live, and hotel men
don't charge drummer so per cent. more
for meal than they do farmer. He also
wrote to his house. But when he called
for mere paper and said he wanted to write
to his girl, there wasn't a dry eye in the
vast assembly. Old men wept and beauti-
| full women fairly howled. This sentiment
seemed to strike tender place in the muir
derous engine, and the mulehead in the
boiler actually cried, while a little bulls
eye lantern on the brakeman's arm shed
tears as large as wild goose-plums. He did
the square thing by his girl, and don't you
| forget it, He willed her his insurance
policy and transferred it right there, but
she never got cent"
Transfer not properly made" suggested
hardware man.
mo not that" continued the gum-dror
| drummer, as he slowly rolled cigarette
g Transfer was O. X. You see it was an
accident policy, and he died a natural
death"
Natural death !" echoed dozen voices
Yes, natural death-iust as sure as am
sitting here. You see it turned cold about
the time the engine struck his knees. and
the poor fellow died of pneumonia. 'Twa:
the saddest death l ever saw."-MeTchdn

lagos, and intends to resume business.
Some of our readers may inquire who is
Helmbold, and this, indeed, would not be
surprising when one considers how rapidly
men drop out of notice. Others will re-
member Helmbeld as the dashing druggis.
and manufacturer of a popular nostrum,
out which he made q fortune, which he
lost with even greater rapidity. He loved
display and he knew how to create it. His
soda fountain cost 5000, but under
Sheriff ssale 1t did not bring one-thirtieth of
that sum. His turnout at Long Branch
distanced all rivalry, but he only shone, as
Byron says, the comet of a season. =
Twenty years have elapsed since Helmbold
threw away his opportunities, and now,

ence, he will renew the effort If it sue
