New YORK, April Yesterday aft
crnoon as passenger train on the New
York IL New Jersey railroad entered
upon a straight stretch of line between
Woodbridge and Carlstadt a sixteen
year-old girl stepped quickly in front of
the locomotive when 1t was about 300
yards away from her and moving very
fast. Half dozen of her companions
watched her breathleSsly from a safe
standpoint. She was laughing def
autly facing the locomotive, standing
fairly between the rails. and the engi-
neer saw that she was bent upon mis-
chief and not upon suicide. He
made the passengers jump OH their
seats with the blOod-curdlng whistle
that he sent out Of his engine, but
the girl between the rails snapped her
fingers and danced deriSiVely, and
showed no disposition to get out of the
way. The engineer had to stop the
train or TO run over her. OF the two
be the least. His fireman did not agree
with HIM, but there was no time to
argue the point. When the locomotive
was brought to a standstill the pilot
was hardly five feet from the girls
skirts.
81 told them you'd have to stop" she
said; Il knew you'd dare not run over
me.
Then she laughed and ran after her
companions, leaving the engineer and
his fireman to swear and make up for
lost time.
