An incident is related by engineer Samuel En-
ley, of the Central railroad of New Jersey,
which seems almost incredible, and is something
that will probably never occur again. He was
crossing the bay bridge on regular trip from
New York to Easton, few days ago, and just
after passing the draw pulled out his watch, a
handsome gold tlme-piece presented him by his
father, TO note the time. AS he took hold of
it it slipped off of the chain and out of his hand
and fell from the cab-window. apparently into
The train ran on to Easton. and upon the return
trip that afternoon it slowed up at the draw,
near the point where Sam had lost his watch.
Looking out on the bridge, to his surprise he saw
his watch sticking in crevice in string piece.
where it had lodged in falling from the cab, and
was thus prevented from going into the water.
Sam stopped the train, secured the chronometer,
and it is now laid up in the shop for repairs

A Chicago inventor has designed locomotive
engine in which the boiler is made double, with
two fire-boxes and trap hoppers. 1t is asserted
that the cost of running will be largely reduced
thereby.
1t is estimated that at least 1.500 miles of rail-
road will be constructed in different sections of
Kansas during the present year. The Atchlson,

majority of the enterprises.
1t is estimated by competent contractors that
to build the section of the Mexican National
railroad now uncompieted on the main line, ex-
tending some 1862 miles between Saltlo and San
Miguel de Allende. will cost $4,000 600. and to

to be that the former has diverted its through

it over the Canton and Locust Point ferry in
