DIE AT THE THROTTLE.
Many Locomotive Engineers Expire
at Their Posts

Many Locomotive Engineers Expire
at Their Posts.
Within the last few years there have
been so many engineers who have drop
ped dead while running their engines
that the suddenness of the death of SO
many men employed in the same ca
pacity has caused considerable COM
ment. There is scarcely road in the
country on which one or more engineers
have not thus suddenly departed life
while on duty in the locomotive cab.
There have also been a number of in
stances in which engineers have met
with death by accident while seated
in the locomotives.
1t is not, however, the accidents to
engineers, but their deaths from heart
failure, paralysis, etc, which are of the
greatest significance. Many railroad
people will well remember sudden
death which occurred on an engine of
one Of the great western roads not very
long ago. A fast train was laundering
along over the rails at its usual rate
of speed. Suddenly the fireman noticed
that the train shot over the grade
crossings of country road without the
usual preceding whistle. The fireman
looked over at the engineer and Won
dered what in the world was the mat
ter. The engineer was sitting on the
little seat on his side of the engine.
with his eyes on the track ahead. The
fireman concluded that by just a little
oversight or fOrgetfulness the engineer
had neglected to pull the whistle. About
the next minute the train flew over an.
other crossing without the whistle
blowing. The fireman grew little un-
easy, but he was dsinclined to call
The attention OF the engineer to his
mistake for fear his correction might
not be kindly received. But few min
utes later the train ran by a station
where 1t was scheduled to stop. Then
the treman's eyes began to stand out
IA queer lump came up in his throat,
and for a few minutes he remained
frozen to his seat and staring at the
engineer, who still kept his seat and
looked steadily ahead at the glittering
rails. Another station seemed to fairly
fly past the train and the fireman be-
gan to regain his senses. He slowly
got down from his seat and stepped
over to the engineer.
Say" old man." he said half hesitat-
ingly, as if fearing he would get called
down for interrupting his superiors
thoughts. There was no reply.
'Say, John though maybe you"

here the fireman reached forward and
touched the engineers arm. He sprung
back with Il startled look on his face:
then he jumped forward and with both
hands shook the engineer. Then the
fireman knew why the train had sped
over the crossings without whistling
and why IL had run past stations where
I stopped every day. Tie engineer was

II was entering the next town. A ply
sician WAS 'Iurriedly summoned, but he
was too late TO be of any service. He
said the man had been dead for nearly
an hour. Heart failure" was his yer.
dict. The fireman ran the train until
Il arrived at one Of the larger towns,
where another engineer was taken ON

This was typical case of the en-
elneer expiring at his post. All of the
many cases of death aNe Of almost ex-
ictly this same character. The engin-
acr fails to whistle, runs past stations
or falls to slow up when going down
grade or passing through stations
where the law requires slower speed,
and then for the first time the fireman
discovers something is wrong and steps
over to his chief TO find that without
the least warning life has departed.
II have been thinking much lately
about these sudden deaths OF engin-
eers," said an old railroad man the
other day, land l have just about come
TO the conclusion that it is caused by
pure nervous strain and nothing else.
Few people realize what great strain an
engineer, a conscientious one, is under.
He has hundreds of lives in his hands
all Of the time and the responsibility
OF these. together with the fear that he
may sometime run over some innocent
victim, is enough, when long continued,
to try the nerves of the strongest"

A Queer Order.

"The funniest thing | saw during
The war" said the colonel, happened
III my regiment. One of the captains
had been railroad conductor before
the war. He was good disciplinar-
ian and kept his men well drilled.
One day he had squad of men out
marching them by flank, when he
turned to speak to friend When he
looked again his squad, marching like
veterans, were in the act of 'buttins'
into a high board fence. In the emer.
gency he fogrot for moment that he
was soldier and became again rail-
road conductor. Running forward to-
wards the squad he shrieked at the top
OF his voice: Down brakes Down
hrakesP He was one OF the best SOL
diers, just the same, and led his men
into many hot fight.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to be
lncurable. For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it incurable.

tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, IN an

Another mode of treating the drink
habit is said to be in successful opera
ton in Paris where three physicians
Drs. Rapelier, Thebanet and Broca-
announce that they have discovered a
new serum. OF 81 cases treated, 32
were cured and 10 were improved, only
10 failing to show improvement. The
serum is obtained from horses that
have been dosed with alcohol until
their systems are drenched with the
poison. When administered to pa
tients the serum revives natural repug.
nance to alcohol, which continued use
has broken down.
