II STUCK TO HIS ENGINE WHILE BROKEN DRIVER POUNDED TO PIECES ~

A blow-off cock had been knocked off.
and the water streamed from the boiler,
leaving pressure OF $50 pounds of steam
and roasting fire in the furnace. There
was imminent danger of an explosion, or,
at least, burnt-out boiler. So Boyle and
Gehr began to fight down the furnace fire.
And still the terrific speed seemed not to
slacken. Five ten, twelve telegraph poles
had been passed, and less than two rods
away was a high embankment. Pieces OF
steel from the engine We're flying hither

the big driver; splnters from the broken
ends Of ties were raining into the cab.
Every second 1t seemed that the driver
must break away from the rod which held
it and either go sailing out upon the right
the locomotive, throw 1t from the track to
pull the rest of the train of with 1t, and
pile cars, passengers and crew into mass
Of wreckage, pain and death.
The sixteenth telegraph pole was passed
and the speed slackened notably: the air
had taken hold and the tightly clinched
wheels Of the six-car train, after sliding
along over the track for hundreds of yards
by the momentum Of the cars, were still
held fast. At the seventeenth pole the train
hsd slowed down to fifteen miles an hour,
and the looseEed driver was humping
weakly while the furnace fire was all but
dead.

the estate that It did not have before Mr..
Lorillard began to spend his money on the
place. Strips Of woodland were planted. and
Rancocas was gradually developed ON a
most comprehensive scale.
The mansion where Mr.. Lorillard lived
and entertained his friends is a medium
sized country house, with all Of the home
comforts that could be wished for. and
with rooms easily accommodating about a
dozen guests. The house Is partly sur
rounded by pines and locust trees. and to
the left Of the house. on the road coming
up from the depot, Is q row of wineries
about three-eighths Of mile long. where
once upon a time the finest Of grapes hung
from the vines. but Of late years these hot
houses have been rented to a Philadelphia
florist, and the grape industry has ceased
to exist. The kitchen gardens are. however,
still kept up. and are models in their way.
The head gardener has a pretty little cot
tage on this portion Of the estate. and ev-
erything is maintained in apple-pie order.
Mr.. Lorillard took a great deal Of pride in
his gardens, and was man Of good taste
and Judgment in this respect He had his
own private stable for his harness horses
and pleasure riding, and his stable was
thoroughly UP to date in every particular.
AS pleasure resort Rancocas also found
distinction in the game preserve. another

him. and Mrs. Allen. however much she
may be attached to the farm, Is not in a
position to expend $4,000 a year for its
maintenance. With the prestige of the Lor-
lizard name attached to 1t and the first
class system Of maintenance sustained by
the millionaire, 1t is valuable property:
but with those two things removed it will

property in Johnstown. the difference in the

cred.
Mr.. Lorillard spent more than a quarter
of million dollars on Rancocas, and it is
not worth more than Sl5O,OOO to-day.
For man Of the world Mr.. Lorillard was
extremely practical. and he was successful
IN the general development of Rancocas.
He always looked ahead. and his wisdom
in this connection has borne excellent fruit.
as Rancocas is to-day without a peer as far
as appointments go to make up breeding
establishment. Mr. Lorillard spent money
lavishly on his farm. but he had excellent
original ideas in making these expenditures.
1t was In June, 1873. that he purchased
Rancocas stock farm. at Jobstown. N. ].
The estate is located on branch railroad,

MAGIC OF THE NUMBER MINI
WRITTEN yoR THn SUNDAY REpUs1Ic.

WRITTEN vOR TH0 SUNDAY REPUBIiC
At friendly little gathering few days
ago the discussion turned upon odd math-
ematical problems. and after many had
been propounded and solved one young
man asked why. when the digits Of two
place number were reversed the difference
between the two numbers was always ex-
actly Invisible by nine. Several OF the
party insisted that this was not SO except
in the case Of multiples OF nine. such as
10 reversed to 81. q reversed to Y. and so
on, but it was found, after testing various
combinations of two digits. that whether
or not the numbers themselves were ex-
actly Invisible by nine the difference be-
tween the two invariably was.
Much interest was manifested in this dis
covery, and brains were severely cudgeled
to find the true explanation. but after many
attempts. none of which resulted in sat-
isfactory solution. the mystery remained
as great as ever when the party broke up.
Not being able. after giving long thought
to the matter. to find the true explanation.
1 submitted the problem to friend with
a mathematical turn Of mind. and after a
few moments of cogitation he answered
me as follows:
1.-The number nine possesses many odd
characteristics well known to mathemati-
clans and made use of by them in proving
complicated calculations. One of these is
that, when divided into any number that
will not contain 1t an exact number Of
times without leaving a remainder. that
remainder is always the same as the one
left over when the digits OF the number

q bad wreck and prevented heavy
loss OF Life
And at the eighteenth pole the train
stopped with q Jerk that pitched the pas
eengers forward
Boyle and Gehr sprang from the cab to
learn the extent Of the wreck. They found
one side Of the engine stripped clean Of
drivers, guides. broken rigging. sand and
water pipes.
And they marveled with each other that
such things should have happened and the
engine remained upon the track.
The conductor, the brakeman and the pas
sengers hurrying forward to see what had
caused the stop. marveled also. and some Of
them grew almost hysterical. They crowded
about the engineer and fireman and over
whelmed them with thanks and praises
They walked down the track to tho en-
hankment just ahead, saw written there
the certainty Of death If the train had not
been stopped short of It. and then returned
to again overwhelm the blushing engineer
with thanks and praise.
Then they got together and wrote n
memorial and adopted resolutions which
were mailed to President Ramsey. They
pointed out the heroism of Tom Boyle, and
urged that he be amply rewarded.
Meanwhile trainmen had been hurried

against ary train that might be a;rroach-

The first warning OF the accident was an
awful Jolt Of the reversing lever held by the
left hand Of Engineer Tom Boyle. Imme-
diately the throttle was pushed back. and
the engineers hand grabbed for the air
brake. 1t was useless. having been rem
dered SO by the breaking Of the axle.
The engineer and Fireman Gehr sprang
for the emergency brake. and put the air
on hard. But there seemed to be no slack
ening of the terrific speed Steam was
pouring from holes in the boiler; the de-
tached driver, dragged along by the fast
revolving lever, was hammering the engine,

Is scarcely less than in Rancocas. and there
is thought to be a certainty that, even
though Mrs. Lorillard should not contest
the will, one of her daughters the wife Of
T. Suffern Taller, will do SO. Mr.. Taller
has long been DESTROYS Of possessing the
Lorillard stables. as he is as enthusiastic q
horseman as was his father-in-law. Mr..
Lorillard had no love for his daughters
husband. and many have been the occa-
sions when he has made this fact manifest.
1t was not expected that he would bestow
the stables upon Mrs. Taller, but it is
thought that the Tailers may be given con-
troll of the stables by mutual consent Of the
rest of the family, in the event that Mrs.
Allen is denied the right of beneficiary
by the courts. !
So far Mrs. Allen has made no effort to
gain possession of Rancocas. Mrs. Loril-

lard says she Is barred from It by the ex-
ecutors. and that she has not been permit
ted to set foot upon 1t since the death of
the man who sought to give 1t to her.
Friends Of Mrs. Allen declare that she has
not attempted TO take possession Of the
famous stock farm. She is familiar with
the provisions of the New Jersey law, which
does not require executors to turn over such
property to the beneficiary until the expira-
ton of year, and, they say, will make no
effort to secure possession in advance.
But what will she do with Rancocas If
she retains it? That is a question in which
many persons are greatly interested.
1t Is said she may be able to sell the
famous stock farm to advantage, but the
prediction is made that If she should at
tempt to run it herself she will discover

favor Of Rancocas when Mr. Lorillard made
this selection. for there is very little frost
IN winter. the snowstorms quickly disap-
pear. and the ground never becomes hard
enough to keep the stock indoors for any
length Of time. The estate originally COM
prised 100 acres. but when the farm was
run at high pressure 400 additional acres
we're leased. making the entire domain LOCO
acres The land and buildings have been
constantly improved and kept in the best Of
repair.
In tho laying out Of this vast tract Of land
Mr.. Lorillard patterned Rancocas after the
old English country estates as much as pos
sible. Streets Of macadam were laid out.
and young trees planted nearly thirty years
ago now afford shade and give setting to

piled her with q white elephant which will
consume greenbaclcs at the rate Of 5000 a
month and result ultimately in dissipating
whatever fortune she possesses.
1t is pointed out that tho value Of Ran
cocas depends upon its prestige as Loril-
lard creation. the ability Of its manage
ment and the performances of the horses it
produces. At present. 1t is said, there are
about seventy-flve year1ings mares with
foal and stations on Rancocas, and twenty
on the English turf
Few OF them are remarkable for speed
and 1t is not believed that any viii emulate
the performances OF IroQuois that Ranco-
cas- product which won the Derby in 1881
and enjoyed the distinction of being the
first American horse to carry off that COW
eted trophy Of the English turf Not that
alone, but the death of Mr.. Lorillard, the
owner and nominator of these horses which
pass to Mrs. Alien, cancels all their stake
engagements. and thereby greatly lessons
their value.
There is no truth in the story that Ran
cocas stock farm is incumbered by a mort
gage OF 100000. It is absolutely free from
debt, and the same may be said Of the es-
tate generally. In fact, the executors will
have a remarkably easy time Of it on that
score.
