holler them two bars AT the middle q the

brakes tighter'n jackscrews, an then run
an sOt 'ena ON t'Other cars, so 5 we couldn't
start an inch. We had carload o. sup
plies for the tannerY settlement, an while
the two bars was settin the brakes t'other
ones broke in the car an rolled out two
bnr'l O. pork an joggled 'em off into tho
woods Then t'other bars clumb down
and follered 'em, an there wasn't a man
on the train dast say afword. What should
the red flag be but bandanna han ker
chief that Sol Jones had lost some rs in
the woods the day afore, an o. course them
smart bars had got it fer a flag to hold us
up an rob US.
Il was torn IA little with doubt after the

Just seen of ;, G.. and p. bears, but a few
days later l felt that l had wrongcd my
fireman We were going down Spillbucket
grade, which drops at about 100 feet to the
mile, and We Were going fast. Half way
down, out Of the woods stepped another
big bear He jumped plumb on the track
and waited Tor us and grinned.
Hold your breath, Bill l said to my
fireman, for 1 IN going to lubricate the
pulled her open and gave her all the
head there was When we reached that
bear, couldn't see the trees, we were GO
ing so fast. Then hollered for brakes
and begun to slow her up. She hadn't
begun to slow any, for we had only got to
the bottom of the grad, when what
should loom up before me but the bear,
climbing up from the pilot and coming
right toward the cab window along the
guardrail. didn't wait for him, but made
a break for the top of the car behind the
engine, and the fireman followed me. The
bear came on, took possession of the cab,
shut off steam and brought the train to
a stop half mile further on. Then he
picked up my dinner pail and the fire
mans, both loaded TO the lid, and with
one in each paw strobe away into the
woods.
- 4 think that un's leetle more II the
average of fair to middlin, said the fire
man as he climbed back to the cab and
went ON.
But whether he was or not my mind
was made up. Railroading on the s, g.
and p was way behind the times. l could
see plain enough, and l put the matter
right to headquarters.
" Here!' | said. This won't dol This

Alameda. MI Smith, let me present
you to Mrs Botlline. "
She welcomed her guest cordially,
but the minute she was alone with her
husband She seized him by the lapels.
What joke have you been playing
on me- she demanded. "Who is tins
Mr.. Smith,"
"Why, my dear, there is no joke.
This is the Nh. Smith that ! told you
was expecting this afternoon What is

'Matterr' she cried. "Who is the
MI Smith that came here this after
noon with a satchel and asked about
yOu theories"
"Why, we met him at the station.
He had few specimens to show me.
He is the son of my friend Com Smith
of San Francisco. He had just run over

some confusion), he will be delighted
to find you here when he returns. He
was so sorry that he had to 60 to town

hope that you will let me look after
you.
THANK you very much. Perhaps You
would be so kind as to explain to me a
few things | should like to know about
Professor Botkines theories on bacte-
ria:''
He was surprised to see a deep flush
and look of distress come over her
face.
Here he was plunging into science
the very first thing and turning shy be-
sides. Oh, she must send him off to
that bath! 1t seemed rather awkward,
but she nerved herself to the effort.
"No, Mr.. Smith, " she said gayly, Il
am sure that | could not tell you any
thing on the subject, and | cannot think
Of leaving you here alone You must
let me make you comfortable. know
that after your journey you would like
a bath. 3"
He looked amazed and then embar-
raised.
THANK you very much Mrs. Bot
kline, he stammered, "but | do not
care at all for bath. l shall do very
well here, and
mo, no!' She said nervously. Il
know that you are only afraid that there
is no hot water on such a warm day,
and you do not wish to give trouble,
Not word if you please, Mr. Smith.
You will really annoy me if you refuse !"
She thought to herself that he little
knew how more than annoyed she was
at the thought of his possible questions
As he followed James, Mr. Smith re-
marked to himself that before this eX-
perience he would have vowed that she
was too pretty to be eccentric He had

HAD TO HAVE A BATH

In the morning Of sultry July day
Professor Botkine of the University Of
California was sitting on his front steps
at Berkeley.
He was dtlightedly watching the ef-
forts of his pet toad to capture very
large anGloW0rm, and his enjoyment
was enhanced is the fact that his beau
tiful German wife, who usually declin-
ed to interest herself i'll anything which
she even suspected of a connection with
science, was seated beside him, giving
eager little pressures to his hand and
uttering a pleased exclamation i'll her
pretty foreign accent whenever the toad
made an extra effort.
The worm gave little wriggle as II
began to come out of the ground, when,
quick as a flash, the toad made a leap
and seized the end of the worm i'll its
mouth.
Then began the tug of war. But the
toad was not to be discouraged 1t jerk
ed and jerked until it fairly stood Oh
its hind legs. Still it could not dis

THE S., G. AND P. ROAD
IT WOUl S4'T GET OUT OF A RUT, SO
TIE ENGINEER QUIT.
Continued to Equip Its Engines With Cow
catchers When All the Trainmen Knew
They Were Not the Things-Bears That
Averaged From Fair TO Middling.

1--WE quit work on the s, g. and p,
said a locomotive engineer from western
Pennsylvania. I've thrown up my job.
Why? Because the 5, G. and p. is so pig
headed and bound to stay in a rut that
it won't be consistent and equip itself
right.
From Peeled Hemlock to Gas Tank
junction, ~ miles, there are only three
stopping places on the 5, & and p One
is a tannery, one a sawmill and one an oil
we'll The rest is woods If there ever
was spot where awesome solitude of the
dim lit woods bumped itself and took the
cake, hands down, it's over along the >,
&. and p. between Peeled Hemlock and
Gas Tank Junction.
"But yet liked it when l first started
in on the road. had always wanted to
get close to natures heart, and here l
was with my head pressed right on it, so
to speak, hearing of it thump. one day
l was booming along with Il heavy train
of bark and lumber and oil, when, about
hundred yards ahead of us, | saw big
bear come slouching out of the woods at
one side of the track. When we had got
within few rods of the bear he deliber-
ately stepped on the track, and, it scented
to me, actually stood there making faces
at u.s. That made me mad, and pulled
my old engine wide open and went for
that bear at 20 miles an hour.
80 Now watch the bear meat fyp said
to my fireman.
1--WE swept down on the bear like cy-
Clone and l looked and waited for the
shower of bear meat l expected to see. 1t
didn't come.

said and went out in front along the
guardrail to see just how bad we had done
bruin up. l give you my word l was sur
priscd. The bear sat on the pilot as cool
as cucumber. He had reached up and
taken the lamp out of the headlight and
was pouring the oil out of it over himself
and rubbing it in as liniment. Then he
looked up and saw me, and chucbing the
lamp at my head and only missing me by
an inch he took hold of one of the flag
standards and swung himself off TO the
side of the track rs slick as could be and
danced away into the woods.
