Brady, Pa, July IS, 1873, and was %

BOLT OF LIGHTNING.
Welded n Broken Rail and Saved
TrainlOad of Passengers.

TrainlOad of Passengers.
When the 8:23 limited pulled into
Wheatley, in this county, one evening.
1t was discovered, says the LIE Sueur
correspondent of the st. Paul Pioneer
Press, that one of the rear wheels on
the last coach was broken, a piece hav-
ing been split off from one side, so
that there was a slightly fiat place on
the wheel, and, as 1t was feared, the
broken wheel in pounding over the
track had broken a rail. Only by mir
acle was the s :56 local saved from be-
ing wrecked.
Three miles south of Bentley the fat
tened wheel had broken out section
Of rail about seven feet long-broken
1t out so badly that it was torn from
the spikes and lay across the rails,
where it was found five minutes before
the local was due by Willy Schultz, a
boy Of IA years, who lives on a farm
near by. The lad knew that the local
soon would be along and he was fright
ened. He put the piece Of rail In place
and then started down the track to-
ward the approaching train, running as
fast as he could. He had not gone
twenty feet, however, when there came
binding flash Of lightning from q
dark cloud that covered the sky, and
he was struck down unconscious and
nearly bereft Of life.
1t must have been ten minutes be
fore he regained consciousness, fol
when he did so he saw the train com
ing toward him at great speed. He
staggered to his feet, the remembrance
of the broken rail still in his mind
and waved his hands, but the engine
did not stop, and, just as 1t was abou
to crush him, he stepped from the rails
and the train sped on.
But the engineer at the last momen
had seen the boy step out Of the en-
gine's way, and, throwing on the lever
stopped the train after it had run sew
eral hundred feet beyond the break il
the rail.
When the engineer jumped down anC
came running back to see what tn,
trouble was, young Schultz told hin
and showed him the place where tn
rail had been broken; but now it wa
perfectly sound. The flash of light
ming that struck Schultz down spen
the main portion Of its force on tn
track in the immediate locality wher
the fracture was, and had evenly an,
perfectly welded the broken rail Fl
place at both ends. The track was a
safe and solid as it was the day it wa
laid.
