Reasoning Powers for an Ex-

A group of children were playing

lake. They ought not to have been
there, of course, but when will chill
dren learn how to avoid danger?
Well, there they were, and, Of
course, it was only a question of time
when one of them would make mis-
step and tumble into the water. This
happened presently, and as the water
was very deep, and the children were
all small, the unfortunate tumbler
stood fair chance of being drowned.
And he certainly would have been
drowned had a big Newfoundland dog
not happened to come along just in
the nick of time. He saw the boy in
the water, and plunged in and
brought him out.
Some of the children went home
with the rescued boy; the Others took
the dog to a confectionery shop and
gave him all the candy and cakes he
could eat.
The next afternoon the children.
strange to say, were again playing on
the pier. Presently they were Joined
by the dog. They received him with
many pats and strokes of welcome;
but he was on the lookout for candy
and cakes.
He must have reasoned the thing

comes from japan and tells how q

for food by the roadside. The woman
found a peach, which she would not
eat of, though starving, till she could
share 1t with her husband. He cut
1t exactly in half, when an infant
leaped forth. It was one Of the gods
who had, he said, accidentally fallen

CONNECTS CAPTURE LOCOMOTIVE.
and declared that an engineer can no
more tell how he will act in an emer-
gency than the ordinary citizen can
say what he would do in a fire, or
how he would meet burglar. One
engineer would jump, another would
stick to his throttle, and the chances
of being killed were as good one way
as the other. The only thing a man
wouldn't do is to reverse the en-
CINE, for that would make the driver
slip, and set the whole business to
skating ahead.
The mention of burglar led one
OF the newcomers to tell of William
Powelfs adventure with some Sing
Sing convicts. Powell was the old
est engineer on the New York Gen.
trail.
On one occasion four or five con-
victs outwitted the guards by drop
ping from trestle upon the tender
of moving locomotive, and the first
thing the engineer knew he was set
upon by n band Of desperate men,
who covered him and his fireman
with revolvers.
"Out you go now, quick" said the
convicts; well run this engine our
selves"
The engine was No. los, PowelTs
pride and pet, and he could not bear
to have unregenerate hands laid upon
her, so he spoke up very politely:
Let me run her for you, gentlemen;
I'll go wherever you say"
They agreed to this, and some dis
lance down the line left the engine
and departed into the woods. "And
the joke of il was" concluded the
narrator, that the revolvers those
| convicts had were made of wood
painted black, and couldn't shoot any
more than. the end of a brooml II
was big blum they had played, but
IL worked"
Wasn't any bluff when Denny Cas-
sin got held up at Sing Sing" said
another engineer. "Convicts had re-
Volvers all right that trip, and Dennv
threw up his hands same as any man
would. 1t was right at the Sing Sing
station, and three of 'em jumped into
the cab all of sudden, and told
Denny to open her up. and he did
indeedi Then they told him to Jump.
and he jumped; but first he managed
to fix the tank valves so she'd pump
herself full of water and stop be-
fore she'd gone far. That was Den
ny's great scheme, and he walked
along, laughing to think how mad
those convicts would be.
1T turned out, though, that Denny
spoiled nice trap they'd laid up at
Tarrytown to catch those fellows
when they got there. You see, the
telegraph operator wired up the line
that runaway locomotive was COM
Ing with three escaped convicts on
her, and the train dispatcher at Tar
rytown just set the switch so the To-
connective would sail plump over a ~
foot stone embankment down into
the Hudson river. That's what would
have happened to those eonvicts IL
Denny had left his tank valve alone.
but, of course, 80 got water-lorged
long before she reached Tarrytown:
she just kicked out her cyhnder-ends
few miles up the track and stopped.
Then the convicts climbed down and
skipped away. Two of 'em got caught
afterward, but one they never
caught"
