RAN A RACE WITH DEATH.

A high trestle bridge more than a
quarter of mile long. supporting the
single track Of the Nickel Plate rail-
road. spans the valley of Grand river,
east of Painesville, 0. The bridge is
little wider than the distance between
the rails. and the ties are placed eight
or ten inches apart, the space between
being open to the river below.
A young man who crossed recently
had a thrilling experience on the
bridge. he had just passed the center
when a fast train rounded the curve
behind him. AS the engine whistled
he quickened his pace. With every
step the train was rushing nearer, and
there was not moment to lose.
Once the young man stumbled and
seemed about to fall, but quickly re-
gained his balance and hurried on. AS
he reached the place for which he had
started the train was close behind. and
he had just time to swing himself over
the side Of the bridge as the locomotive
thundered by. The ends Of the ties
were slippery with grease from drip
ping axle boxes. and his foot slipped
wide as he left the track. His right
hand. stretched blindly out before him.
touched a round iron bar, bracing two
parts OF the bridge, and, with a grip
like that of drowning man, his FIN,
gers clasped around it. For moment
he swung in empty air In another his
left hand had found place beside his
rigt' and bis feet touched the wei,
come edge of :: brace beiow. With
bleeding fingers clutchins the slender
iron bar that vibrated widely from side
to side. moments seemed hours.
At last the train passed. and the
young man WAS able to climb slowly TO
the trac': above Ennervcd by the try
ING experience. he lay for a moment
stretched across the rails and then
rising to bis feet. With blanched face
and unsteady limbs. made his way to
