Thought He Hit a Ghost.

An old engineer on the Rock Island
said: II do not know that ever had
any peculiar thing to happen to me,
but can tell how another engineer
thought he had struck a ghost. 1t
was on straight piece of track, where
he could see everything for mile or
two, and he was Just letting his engine
out to do her best, when hundred
or SO yards ahead of him he saw
man step on the track, and WALK lei
surely along. He sounded his whistle
several times very sharply, thinking
the man would get of. He made no
move in that direction, and the en-
gineer did his best to STOP but the en-
CINE was on the man in second. The
engineer saw the man thrown bodily
into the air, and stopped his train
as quickly as he could, but had run
two or three times its length. He
Jumped from his engine, looked back
along the track, but could see moth.
ing of the mangled body. He then
looked under the engine, but every.
thing was right there; he ran back
looking under the cars, thinking per-
haps the body had been caught and
carried along by the trucks, but found
nothing. He returned to his engine,
! thinking it was all an optical delu.
sion; that he had not seen any man
on the track, and told his fireman he
guessed he had struck ghost. He
then thought of going to the front OF
the engine, and there, cuddled up on
the pilot, was the man. He had leg
broken, but was not dead. It turned
out that he was deafmute, and, OF
course, had not heard the warning sig.
nal. He got we'll, but it was a long
time before the engineer could get
over the queer feeling he had when he
was first convinced the whole thing
was delusion."

Carroll soon became acquainted with
the life OF the place. Monrovia con-
sisted of an upper stratum of mill
owners and lumber operators, possess
ed of considerable wealth and some
cultivation; a gawky middle estate Of
storekeepers and the lumber mill op-
eratives. The class first mentioned
comprised small coterie. among
whom Carroll soon found two or three
congenials Edith Fuller, wife of the
bank cashier; Valerie Cathcart, whose
husband had been killed in the civil
war; Clara Taylor, wife Of the lead

"Well see." said Orde vaguely.
Later Carroll brought the subject up
again. armed with sheets of paper
covered with figures showing how
much cheaper it would be to keep

"You certainly make out strong

"Stop, stopw cried Carroll, covering
her ears.
| "All right" agreed Orde equally,
"but that's the way it figures. Funny
the earth isn't overrun with chickens,
isn't it?''
! Two days later Orde took her one
J block up the street to look at tiny
little house tucked on a fifty foot lot
beneath the shadow of the church.
'It's mighy little." said he. "I'lI have
to go out In the hall to change my col.

| They ended by renting the little
house. and Carroll took charge of 1t
delightedly. What difficulties she over
came and what laughable and cryable
mistakes she made only those who
have encountered like situation could
realize.
"Kind Of fun being married, isn't
it?' said he.
"Ilind Of" she admitted, nodding
gravely.
The business Of the firm was now in
shape. Boom arrangements had been
made, the tugs were in the water, sup
plies and equipments were stored
away, the foremen of the crews en-
gagged and the crews themselves pretty
well picked ont. Almost before they
knew 1t January and February had
flown.

Orde.

she cried regretfuii;y.
At Redding they explored together
for three days the delights of the old
fashioned house. Then Orde assumed
his woods clothes and marched OF
down the street, carrying his bag on
his back.
He looks like conqueror of will
dernesses," cried Carroll, straining her
eyes after his vanishing figure. Sud
denly she darted after him. She clasp.
ed him by the shoulders.
| "Goodby," she said. You'll take
better care Of my sweetheart than you
ever did Of Jack Orde. won't you,
dear?"

ODSCruCL1On. Inc Train IS stopped
automatically. Then the engineer
takes down his telephone and calls up
the nearest station and asks what is
The matter. He can also talk with
the other engineers on the line. A
time-meter, similar to the paper disk
time clock Of the watchmen in big
buildings, renders 1t impossible for
him to make a false report as to the
time he received the danger signal.
and what he did. Another signal in
the engineers cab is a green light
that burns as long as the track is
clear, but goes dark as soon as a dan
ger zone is entered. A push button
in every station will stop any train
along the track for miles. AS soon as
the station agent pushes this button
the train comes to stop. The en-
gineer calls back to find what it is all
about. The agent explains and gives
orders.
Aside from It's first and primary i'm
portance as safety device, 1t can
be operated in connection with local
and long distance telephone service.
On the first experiments made few
days ago the engineer and a passen
ger on fastmoving train in New
Jersey telephoned to the editorial
rooms of New York city newspaper,
and could, they declare. have easily
talked with Chicago.
That this sort Of a system may be
generally adopted and applied to
railroad service seems to be likely,
as its installation and operation will
be less costly to railroad than the
loss of rolling stock that is being con.

have become so frequent they hardly
count any more even as important
