A BRAkEMAN'S THANKSGIVING.

"Did we have any Thanksgiving at our
house?" replied the brakeman, echoing an
engineers inquiry. "Well, 1 should say
we did. I had lay off that day. The
night before came near laying me off for
ever, too. Didn't you hear about that3
Funniest thing that ever happened
on the road. AS l was coming in
on the last section of 81, having the
rear end, went up ahead to speak to the
conductor, who was on the engine. 1t
was as dark as stack of black cats before
the moon rose. AS 1 was going back

end of one of those Internal refrigerator
cars, and fell. l couldn't see hand be-
lore me, but knew was going down. I
clutched for the hand rail, but failed to
reach it, lost my balance, and went down
between the cars, breaking my fall by a
one hand grasp on the brake rod. 1
knew what that meant. 1t came over me
like flash. 1t was death, and l knew it.
My first thought was of my wife and
babe-of what a Thanksgiving dinner
they would have with the turkey the
superintendent had sent US, and me
a-lyin' in the little front room all cold. I
can't tell you all thought in that second,
and wouldn't if could. 1t was awful.
I can remember striking the ground.

grasp the hand rail and my half
grip on the brake rod having started
my feet down first The horror of that
shock. Quicker than you can wink the
thought ran through my brain that in the
next instant would be crushed by the
wheels of the dozen cars behind me. But I
wasn't. fell headlong on the ground and
rolled over and over, bruised and stunned,
but conscious. I couldn't realize why tho
other cars didn't run over me. l waited for
them, second by second. 1t seemed hours
Soon reused, scrambled to my feet, and
found that there were no cars after me. The
train had broken in two and had fallen
off the rear end. One of my arms was
terribly sprained, also my left ankle and
I was bruised good deal, but 1 could
walk. There was my lantern by me.
Just then remembered that the through
express was following our section,
and that there was no one 20 the ca

crawled, back about three-quarters Of a
mile and found our missing cars standing
in a curve and a cut where the express
would surely have teleseOped 'em, and got
there Just in time to signal the express
and stop it. Next day was able to sit
up in bed and eat turkey and receive the
superintendent, who called to say that I
should be promoted the first Of the year."
