Whv tho Whistle Blew.

'Did you notice that peculiar whistle:
asked the section foreman who was re-
turing to his home in Wilmington. There
did not appear to be anything unusual
about II to the ear of the Star man and he
asked In what way 1t differed from other
signals.
"Weil, 1t was made In an open part CT
the road, not near a town or crossing. and
was sort of mournful. There Is 4 story
that goes with that whistle. Jim watson,
the engineer Of this train, ever since the
night his engine crushed out life at
that spot has made that signal when he
goes by there. 1t was on foggy night. as
| have heard Jim say. and the headlight
only showed a big white bank OF mist
which he couldn't see through.
He had an uneasy feeling like men
have sometimes when something disas-
trous Is going to happen and that made
him unusually alert. 1t was on Il part
Of the road where the trains are scheduled
UP to high rate of speed and Jim had her
going at a lively pace. The feeling that
there was something wrong could not be
shaken OF and he cursed the fog that shut
out the track ahead.
Suddenly figure shot into the light.
Jim saw for AN instant her eyes full OF ter
ror and then the train swept on with hor-
rible persistence.
Jim slowed up and went back. He and
the fireman threw what was left Of the
COW OF the track. The owner Of the ami
NAL afterward sued the company for da :
ages and Jim had to pay SIS for 1t. He
never did like to part with his money and
the incident made such an impression on
him that every time he passes the spot
where the death occurred he blows low,
mOurnful whistle. e."-Washington Star.
