For the first time In many years the
good old state OF Michigan has given ITS
management into the hands OF democ-
racy--the latest returns make it look
very much that way; they have carried
the state by majority that .Xill reach
nearly 5000. SS
The principle OF the party did not
carry the day; other causes are afswer-
able for the defeat Of the republicans,
causes which could not very we'll be pre-
vented unless by the entire vote Of the
republicans, and careful estimate
shows that not more than two-thirds oi
the republican vote OF the state was not
cast
The lower peninsula papers are loud
IN accusing the upper peninsula OF being
responsible for the defeat, but il
the ticket had been a winner this
part of the state would have
received no thanks from the source
that is now making SO much noise.
A year or so OF democratic rule will be
a lesson TO the republicans TO always be
ON guard and do their duty ON election
day, whether il be an off year or
otherwise. IL is "A sad lesson and one we
hope will be profitable.

BLOWN FROM HIS ENGINE.

Fireman on the Maine Central Has
miraculous Escape.
BANGOR (Me.), Nov. 13.-Fred Russell of
this city, who is q fireman on the Maine
Central Railroad, had a thrilling experience
last night while on a special freight train
running from Vanceboro to Mattawamkeag.
Ii was cold and stormy and heavy wind
prevailed, so that the run was very dreary
one.
When the destination had been nearly
reached, Russell happened to recall that the
wrong train numbers were displayed in
front Of the locomotive headlight, viola
tion of the rule of the line, for which he did
not care to be responsible. Knowing that
the error would be noticed at the next STA
tion he decided to attempt the hazardous I'M
dertakiDg of making the change.
The train WAS running at full speed, but
the intrepid fireman opened the cab window
and crept slowly out until he was fully on
the back of the huge engine.
The wind seemed to blow with increased
fury as ne crept aleng the guard, which was
very slippery, and he was unable to keep
either his footing or his hold secure. Sud
denly there came a stronger gust than usual.
and it caught Russell unawares and swept
him from the faSt-moving locomotive to
the stones and frozen ground at the side of
the track. and he knew no more until he
awoke in the cabooSe on the train.
Russell had been gone from the cab but a
few moments before Engineer Lewis Gil
bert became alarmed at his absence as he
could assign no reason for IL. Investigating,
he found that the fireman had disappeared,
and at once surmised the cause. The train
was stopped and slowly backed until poor
Russell was found lying unconscious where
he fell.
He was thought to be dead after such a
fall and was carried to the caboose. where
he soon partially recovered consciousness.
was almost prostrated by the shock. To-
day the man has been very comfortable and
the railroad employees are all commenting
upon his miraculous escape. The train
must have been running more than thirty
miles an hour when the fireman felL-Ban-
