Incompatibility of temper between AZ
engine driver and a stoker very nearly
brought about a disastrous railway acct
dent. The two men had not been for
some time on very good terms, and a
violent quarrel broke ont as they were
conducting a train over a rather difficult
line. High words were exchanged and
then they came to blows, and a regular
:etto ensued in spite of the confined space
which they had for this test of their pro-
ficiency in the noble art.
Fol some time the battle ragged. while
the train abandoned to its own re-
sources-sped onward with such velocity
that the passengers, ignorant of the cause
of its sudden elevation to the dignity of
an express, began to entertain serious
misgivings, while the country people,
looking up from their labor in the fields
and taking in the real situation at a
glance, viewed its wild career with feel
ings akin to CONSERVATION. The train
was rapidly approaching a station at
which another one would soon be due,
and unless its progress were promptly
checked a terrible collision was a moral
certainty.
Happily, just at the critical moment
the engine driver and the stoker be-
thought themselves of the fearful catas-
trophe that was impending and, conclud-
ing q truce, they set to work with the
utmost energy to arrest the lightning
speed of the train. They were just in
time, for in another moment they would
have dashed headlong into the other
train. The company, Of course. got wind
Of the affair, I'D an investigation has
been set on foVt without delay.-Paxis
