DEATHS ReD LIGHT.
IL Was Waved at an Engineer. Betoken-
ing HIS Mothers Demise.

Et Was Waved at an Engineer, Betoken-
ing HIS Mothers Demise.
1.-The most peculiar case ! ever heard
of, . said telegraph operator, occur
red in our family. My father was an
engineer on the Chesapeake and Ohio
railroad, running into Richmond One
night while quite distance from the
latter city and nearing his run he saw a
bright red light ON the track several
hundred yards ahead. The signal was
also seen by his fireman and the front
brakeman The train was at once stop
ped. but not trace of the signalman or
light could be found, and the track was
all right. Father looked at his watch
and noted that the time was o clock.
The train pulled ont, proceeding eau
tiously for some distance without
meeting any obstruction. Several miles
farther the light was again seen
Once more stopping, another search was
made, with no more success than before
This happened at S:28. Father was new
or superstitious, but this was inexplica
BILE. Much mystified, he proceeded on
the way, only to be stopped third time
by the red light at 1851 o'clock. Anoth
er search by the crew failed to disclose
the slightest trace of the mysterious sig
mailman. Finally, giving up the search,
the men returned TO their posts, and the
train at last pulled up into Richmond
without further mishap.
when father alighted from the cab,
telegram was handed him announcing
the death of his mother. Without delay
he went to her home, which was sew
eral miles out of the city, on the rail
road. Soon after his arrival he learned
that a telegram had been sent to him
while he was out on duty, summoning
him to grandmother's bedside. The
time at which father had seen the mys-
terious red lights was indelibly inn
pressed on his memory, and he learned
upon inquiry that at precisely the min
ute at which the first red light was seen
she had asked if he had come She then
repeated the question at the time he saw
the second light, and the appearance of
the third light was simultaneous with
her death. Richmond Times.

As two men were looking from an
Office window on Griswwold street the
other morning a shriveled up old fellow
passed by.
See that party?" said one. well,
he's the meanest man in the state "
who is he, and why is he so mean?"
He's lawyer in one of the interior
towns where they have bobtail cars, and
one day while he was riding up town a
lame man on the car gave him dime
and asked him TO pay his fare for him.
He did as requested and then wanted to
keep the other nickel as fee for pro-
fossional services. Detroit Free Press.

Whom do you rank as the first of

haps guessing its cause. Mr.. Froude
quickly added: "Ahl naturally thought
you would say Ruskin, who is certainly
a master of descriptive writing, at his
best exquisite. Newman, too land Mat
thew Arnold in lesser degree), had lu-
cidity and the gift of irony, but lacked
glow and color. To me he is always cold.
My own favorite is Charles Lamb .
Seeing that was greatly interested,
he went on to point out the beauties of
Dream Children" and then quoted the
lovely passage in 1.-THE New Year s
Eve beginning, And you, my mid
night darlings. my Folios. That, he
said. was the high water mark of modern
English prose, equal to anything of the
seventeenth century, 1.-THE English as
pure and beautiful as that of the liturgy

Mr.. Froude was great admirer of
Bret Harte "Tennessee's Pardner" and
The Luck of Roaring Camp" he used
to declare were of the immortals. When
l once said feared that Mr. Bret Harte
was no longer the fashion, Froude mere
ly replied, $50 much the worse for the
fashion. In this appreciation of the
American story teller, as we'll as in his
affection for Charles Lamb and his re-
spect for Mr.. Chamberlain, we see that

With a face as fresh and fair as the day,
Comes Ethel. blushing, her lover TO greet
There's an old gray stone makes messy seat'
With a bank behind, where butterflies stray.
Down the dear old lane where we always lneet-
Daintily tripping on dainty. wee feet
With an innocent haste that brooks no delay.
Comes Ethel. blushiHg. her lover 10 greet
There's thrill that quiclSens my hearts quick
beat,
And fain would think twill ever be~aaay-
Down the dear old lane where we always meet
Comes Ethel blushing, her lover TO greet.
