A RUNAWAY ENGINE.

An old locomotive being brought from
the west to this point made a flying run
down hill from Sherman to Granite Can
yon Yesterday. The fourteen miles were
covered in that many minutes.
The engine was being held on the main
line, and when a signal to back up came
the lever was thrown over. Instead Of
responding properly the locomotive
started down hill. Both the engineer
and fireman jumped.
The operator at Sherman was apprised
of the flight and wired an order to ditch
the runaway at Granite. At the latter
place the engine was derailed at a stub
switch and ran 100 yards on the ties be-
fore stopping.
1t was wonderfully fortunate that the
runaway had a clear track.
