A QUEER EXPERIENCE.

From The Chicago Times-lferal@
Three years ago I was living in n car and travel
ling from town to town in the State OF w ashire-
ton. In Cheney had IA call from, a real estate
man. Some way other the talk driftcd to queer
experiences My friend told me he had had one
such experience in life. and one only: Ten years
before he was running train out of Chicago as n
conductor on Of the Burlington lines. One
morning after heavy rains. when there were
frcshets in the streams. he stood upon the plat
form of a way station about three miles from the
crossing OF a small river. He about to signal
his engineer to go. ahead, when a voice spoke
plainly in his ear. LOOK out for the bridge! -
No one was standing near at the time. He walked
forward and said to the engineer. Jim think you
had better slow down at the curve just this side
Of the bridge" There is nothing the matter with
had a wire from It," Perhaps there isn't" 70.
piled the conductor. 'but you slow down all the
same" There IL sharp curve short distance
from the approach to the bridge so near. in fact.
tina, II would have been impossible to stop the
train after coming in sight Of the bridge had 1t
been running at the usual rate of speed. The
engineer slowed down. The bridge was gone II
had been carried away between the time the train
left the last station and It's arrival at the curve
Had II not been for the mysterious warning the
whole train would have gone into the river.
