Cartes, he quietly waited until he saw him
emerge from the house. Then he locked the
door and flung away the key.
| The purpose of the raiders, If such they
may be termed, was to carry their point with
the least possible disturbance of the property
OF the rival railroad. They refrained from
cutting the telegraph wires, because, as the
expression goes, that was liable to give them
away within ten seconds thereafter None
OF them sprang on the engine, though Its
wheels were chained to the track and obstruc-
tons placed in front and rear.
All possible preparations had been made
for this daring attempt, for there was no
telling when an interruption would come
The framework inclosing the massive. iron
castings, known collectively as a frog was
not only extensive, but enormously heavy, and
it was exceedingly hard work to lift 1t clear
of the ground.
Grafton danced about and yelled, and crowd
ing in between the groaning laborers, did
what they could toward carrying the burden.
With their help, it was lifted a couple of feet
from the ground, and then they began slow
ly and laboriously moving toward the spot
where more of the foreigners, under the di-
rection of another boss, were busiy prepar-
ing to receive and place the metal in position.
Look out for the rails!" roared one of the
directors, Lift your feet, or you'll stumble
and break your necks!"
This warning was shouted in plain Eng
lish, but number of the Italians did not
understand a word, and the Interpreter hap
pened to be at work some distance away.
STILL as they were accustomed to labor ON
the railroad, they ought to have needed no
such warning.
But sure enough, the first Italian who at
tempted to step over the track failed to lift
his foot high enough The toe of his boot,
which, usual, was much too large for him,
struck, and over he went.
Those in his immediate vicinity seemed to
think it their duty to do the same, and they
did it. The remainder, finding the frog was
fast growing unbearably heavy, let go, and it
fell to the ground.
The bosses were furious. for they had shout
ed and hung until their arms were almost
wrenched from their sockets, and if they
hadn't been pretty lively they would have been
crushed. But all their scolding did no good
the men stood painting and calmly resting
themselves.
Night was closing in, and with some diff
Guilty the other bosses had lit lanterns which
flashed and twinkled here and there like so
many stars.
In response to the demand of the leaders
by the frog, number of other employees were
sent thither, and once more they attacked
| the ponderous casting.
