the wanderer lay upon his back kicking
his fettered limbs in the air, and listening
to the noise of the approaching train, the
engineer of which, ever alert for the danger
signal, thought that he saw before him the
customary emblem being waved to warn
him against imminent peril.
The train was moving at rather more
rapid pace than is usually attained by
those of that species, so that the engineer
had no easy task in bringing it to a halt,
and only did so when about twenty-five
feet from the unsalaried danger signaler
and his flag. Then he sprang from the
engine with the fireman, followed by the
conductor and little band of brakemen,
all of whom were anxious to learn the
cause of the sudden waving and thankful
for their supposed narrow escape from
death.
Great was their surprise upon getting a
few feet ahead of the engine to see the
danger signal further down, and in it's
place appear an unpicturesque goat wear
ing upon its face an expression Of pleasure
such as no goat is ever remembered to have
worn before. A shout went UP from the
trainmen when they understood the reason
of their sudden stop, and all hands went
to congratulate the goat, and to tell his
would-be slayer that such clever animal
should be allowed to live

1t Upon the Railroad Track.
A black and white goat of patriarchal

white beard, who has long been wanderer
In the vicinity of the Fifty second street
station and who has had the reputation of
conducting himself in a manner not caicu-
lated to raise him in the estimation of his
neighbors belonging to the human family,
had narrow escape yesterday from being
run over by freight train, as the result OF
an escapade in which he brought down the
wrath of one of the long suffering natives,
says the Philadelphia Times.
Patrick Murphy, flagman on the Penn
sylvanla railroad, near the Fifty-second
street station, has long been addicted to
the use OF red-hannel shirts, and cherishes
each one with loving care, allowing no one
to wash them but himself, and hanging
tnem out to dry In sunny spot where he
can watch them dangling in the breeze.

the drying process, and had it not been for

The goat has always had an especial ha-
tred Tor the fiagman on account of his red

vowed many times that he would have the

the goat appeared upon the hill and began

his property, which was nearly demolished
when he reached it.

good nature, and, taking the remainder of
the shirt, he tied the goats legs and
