making the promotion easier. What
is mainly to be feared is that under
the stimulus of the need of officers the
restriction of numbers may be remov-
ed and a broadly framed general pro-
vision may make it possible for those
to secure a commission who would
not or could not qualify under the
present restrictions. On the other
hand, promotion within the limits now
set should not be made impossible
through the establishment of stand
ards which, however conscientiously
adopted, might he found prohibitive.

the other day. Il had the experience
some years ago. and ] shall always
remember il as one of the principal
events of my career as an engineer.
The runaway ! speak of took place
near Grafton, W. Va, on the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad A passenger engine
which was coming westward over the
third division. light-that is. with no
train attached - had sidetracked at
Newburg. ten miller below Grafton, to
get out of the way OF an express which
was following close behind. While
waiting at that place the engineer and
fireman left the engine and went to
nearby boa riding house to get something
to eat The engine was one of the
large. high wheeled type and had on
q high pressure of steam at the time.
1T was afterwsrd thought that n
boy had climbed aboard of her and had
pulled open the throttle, but this was
never found out for certain. At any
before any one could stop her passed
cut OF the sidetrack and by breaking
the steel tongue OF the switch had let
herself on to the main track
There wasn't another engine at New
burg that they could give chase with.
30 the only thing they could do was to
rush to the telegraph office and let the
people at Grafton know that the en-
gine was coming. All engines were
changed at Grafton. and | was wait
ing with my engine to take the express
westward over this division TO Wheel

her to run into my engine and bring her

Of the station house TO look out for the
runaway and let me know when she
came In sight. From his position he
could thus he able TO see her when she
got within half mile of the station.
"Then when everybody was almost
breathless from suspense the man on
the roof sang out. Here she comesr
.'It at once started my engine. and l
started in hurry, too, as | wanted TO
get up good speed and put comfort

runaway. OF course didn't get TO see
the engine as she came through the
yards. hut l was told that II was the
sight OF a lifetime.
I'VE must have run nearly three
miles before we caught glimpse of
our pursuer This was when our engine
