sho saroa a Train with an A.

PITTsBuRG, July -. by the heroic work
Of Miss zenie Bisley crowded passenger
train was saved from destruction.
A short distance below Springdaie che
railroad track makes a dangerous -"
curve. For years tall poplar tree has
stood on the bank above the lower band Of
the curve. IL had withstood many storms,
but sucoumbed TO the wind. In falling,
most OF the trunk Of the tree fell aoross
the railroad bed, and both tracks were COW
cred.
Miss Bigley lives at point noar the
curve, and while in the second story of
her home watching the storm she saw the
tree fall across the tracks. On looking at
the clock sbesaw it was but a short time
before the local accommodation, city
bound, was due in Springdalo almost
two miles away.
1t was useless TO attompt to reach tho
station before the train left FOR Allegheny,
and Miss Bigley, selling an AK, started
for tho railroad tracks. Although the tree
was only inches thick ihe trunk lay In
such position that an engine running at
a high rate of speed against Il would be
derailcd
First she trimmed that section of tho
log that covered the track of its branches,
and then commenced the work of cutting
it in pieces that she might roll it of tho
track. Three pieces were cut on the trunk,
and in tnrn oach was rolled into the wa
ter course at the side of the tracks.
During The whole time tho young wOm-
an worked at the tree the rain was falling
in torrents, lightning dashed, and she was
dronched 10 the skin. Despite the soaking,
she worked on until the Big obstruction
was out Of the way.
The track had scarcely been cleared
when the engineer on tho accommodation
from Springdale whistled for tho. curve.
The curve Is considered dangerous, but as
the tracks were supposed to be cloar no
instructions had been given for the engi-
neer TO slow up his train.
Miss Bigley had hardly time to reach
