Barbarians Will Try
for Big Trophies
By William Unmack

With their. two victories last week
the Barbarians have demonstrated that
they are a much stronger aggregation
than last year. Their strength lies in
their splendid combined work. The
serum at present is ideal and the backs
are working in perfect unison and with
machineiike precision. The serum in
both games last week showed up well
in gaining possession of the ball. At
practice yesterday 25 men put in an
appearance, and the serum formation
was practiced repeatedly. The Bar

when / awoke it took a few seconds to
get my latitude. Then 1 looked across
at the fireman, and he was sound
asleep on his seat. 1 looked at the
steam gauge and we were at about the
lowest moving notch. In a minute 1
reused him up and he began to pile in
coal, and soon we were able to move
a little better, and finally got under
fast motion again
Il was much disturbed. 1 wondered
if he had seen me go to sleep. pre-
sumed he had, and therefore it was
hardly up to me to be too harsh. l
omitted all reference to sleep or steam,
but asked him where we were.
THAT seemed to be a posr for him,
and 1 surmised that he had been asleep
as long as 1 had, but he gave me a
qualified remark, which saved himself,
because could not deny it.
Il was now wide awake. 1 was ac-
tually scared to death. 1t was in the
summer, and there was some moon
light, but the first glints of dawn were

speare tells about, which 1 do not re-
member.
Now, l was in most embarrassing
position. Considering the down grade
and the present low steam l might have
been asleep half an hour or more. and
so might have been the fireman. L
could not afford to say anything, for
fear he would give me away. The fact
that 1 had behind ME the president and
board of directors, who were going to
make millions for the company or go
into bankruptcy, made my position al
most intolerable.

man., expecting him to call out signals
of some sort as usual, but he was not
only silent but he seemed to have been
suddenly taken with the jimjams or the
cerebro spinal meningitis. He would
look out of his window, utter a grunt or
a groan, throw in a lot of coal, wipe his
eyes and once more look out at the
landscape, as if he expected to see a
lot of spirits. But, worst of all, could
see his shoulders jiggle. The thought
flashed across me that he might have
gone insane for want of sleep, though /
could scarcely blame him for that.
Finally demanded of him where we
were, and he replied that we were just
coming into Walton That was salts

The president and most of the direc-
tors along with some of the chief Of
fcials of the road were seated in the
rear section of the special car, smok-
ing and telling stories. These had a
wide range and were so interesting that
though the hour became late, no one
proposed to go to bed
In the course of a lull the youngest
of the party, being the division super
intendent,> and in a sense the territorial
host in charge of the party, remarked
to the handsome, gray-haired president
that while all these strange tales were
new to him, and dealt mostly with a
period before he had been born, yet he
knew enough of the presidents history
to understand that there was no acct
dent of fortune which had brought him
TO the front.
The president stopped smoking a
very large cigar and looked into the
young mans face until it was full of
bushes and the heart was full of ire
NOR Then the president laughed and
remarked:
I might as well tell it now, I never
yet told it, but / guess it won't hurt
Il am the great accident in American
railways
There was murmur of protest, in
which the superintendent had the most
volume.
Not" pursued the president, but
that might otherwise have got along
after a fashion, but am sure would
not have been here except for a com
bination of circumstances which none
of you win believe unless 1 assure you
it is true and can prove it in court of
law if necessary"
The president laughed, looked at his
cigar and threw it away. Then he bent

II kicked. Gentlemen, 1 swore round
~ that 1 would not do it. 1 was dead
for sleep and the idea of taking out a
special of express mails and a private
car full of directors, presidents and
Wall street magnates was not to my
notion. I had girl back east, and
she had never even heard from me

though was nearly dead for sleep. and
so we started with nothing but mail
and express and the presidents car on
behind so as to fool the strikers. They
were even then afraid of the mails.

up in the old hills and followed cow
paths which now seem to me straight

MY heart was in my throat for
about an hour, but the fireman kept
me posted, and made fairly good for
