Power Women should Desire.


Deep-rooted in the innermost life of the
heart of man and of the heart of woman
is love of power. God set it there and God
keeps it there. Vainly as falsely you re-
buke the desire of power. For Heavens
sake and for mans sake, desire it all you
can. But what power? That is all the
question. Power to destroy the lions limb
and the dragons breath? Not so. Power

A Close Shave.

An old dispatcher told of narrow es-
'ape he had from getting two trains to-
Jether.
Il was very sleepy that night" said
me- We had two wild trains on the
road A wild train is one that has no
sime card rights, only the rights con-
ferred upon it by special orders issued
by the dispatcher. I gave one of these
trains orders not to pass X station with
out orders. 1t could make there for the
regular freight, and wanted to give it
meet order with the other wild.
When it arrived ut x station, / found
that the regular freight was quite late
and gave the wild freight an order to
run to q station regardless of No. 10,
the regular, but forgot all about the
wild train running west in the opposite
direction. A few moments after had
corrected the order and the train had
gone remembered the west bound ex-
ira. You can imagine the condition in
10 which l was thrown. There were two
freight trains running in opposite direc-
lions, and neither knew the other was
ON the road. ! paced the floor few mo.
ments and then bega;. calling G station.
There was no night operator there, but

operator at Q station began calling me.

managed to give the wild west an Or

then run ahead of No. 10. A moment
later had the signature Of the conduct

was snfe.
A few days later I saw the conduct

qu1zzical way how it came that the
wild east reached Q station so soon aft
er he got orders to meet it there. I
asked him if the operator at G station
did not have out his red lights. He
could not remember, and then knew I
was safe and that the superintendent

ira, and running on special orders,
which gave it the right of track against
the regular passenger train.

meant that the extra would meet the

stead of at the station beyond 1t was

keep changing tho bottoms of the switch
lamps to keep the lard oil in them from

orders at the station above me and
would stop at Newport. and my only
anxiety concerned the extra Just about
the time the passenger was due ! heard
the extra coming from tho opposite di-
rection. Iwalked out on to the platform,
and as it came nearer and nearer l fran
tically waved my red light. But there
was no decrease in the train g speed I
was sure there must be something wrong,
and rs the engine flew past me 1 threw
my lantern through the cab window,
striking and awakening the fireman.
Looking out the window, no saw the red
lights displayed at the station In n mo-
ment the train was slowed down, and n
brakeman WAS sent ahead to flag the
coming passenger, which was then with
in view, Just i'll time to prevent an aw-
