Fifty Miles on an Engine.
I felt as if I had came to tbe end ef
the world that day, sad, a usual, I
rasbed off up to Lou's te talk the matter
over uith her. Lw, I sppose, i rav
bosom friend, athugk r do twt hsg"
each other when tugtther and fcaadalizr
each other when separated, after the
zs&nnir of the bosom fiicsds yoa read
stwnt in sore!. Not that wc aJC cither
one very amiable; but then we arc each
perfectly at borne" uith the other, asd
generally say what ue pica, m that
there it no room for Kandalon retnatt.
"Hecate each arrived at the dignity of a
matrimonial exua:ement, and are each
dreadfully in love with our own future
lord; therefore the subject of lorer,
about which must girls disagree, has nu
temptations for Us.
Baton this particular day of vhich I
write, everything had gone wrong, mv
temper included, and, as I bare nid, I
felt as if I had come to the end of the
world. I concluded, however, not to
leave this mundane sphere until I had
seen Loa, and forthwith I started for
that young lady's residence. Upon
reaching it, I entered the ball, called my
friend's name scTer&l time, and vu
finally answered from the upper region
1 mean tbe Hansard roof.
"I'm in my denT screamed Loa.
"Come up and 'beard the lion ia bis den.
the Duglss in his hail.'"
uWhy don't you bare an elevator?"
panted I, when once in her room; it i
morally as well as pbjucallr enervating
to climb two fl ighu of stairs when you
are vexed." x
Loa gazed at me uith a placid smile,
and said:
"Josephine, yon need a change, and so
doL Let's go viaitisg somewl.ere."
"Can't," was my dUmal reply; "don't
know anybody to vist nearer than a hun
dred or two miles, and my pocktt-lxok
coaldn't stand anything ol that ort."
"Oar united 'oockeNbook miM.t

we go there! Say, girlie, isn't that a
bright ideaP
"l'es, it is," was my ready reply, "and
our mothers will not object, I am sure.
ne wouju only uc an ay a week; our
old schoolmate, Charley Perry, is con
ductor on that road, so we'd bare com
pany tbete and back, and it U an alto

"I thought that plan would brighten
you up, Josephine, and now for the time
to start; when tball it be?"
"Saturday next will suit me bett,"
taid I.
"Well, Siturday next it shall be," an
swered my friend; and soon we weft
busilj discussing various feminine ques
tions relatibg priucipally to the nutulier
of dresses and neckties necessary for our
visit.
It was sunset when I reached home
that day, and at once I held a consulta
tion with mater feuatlia on the subject.
As fur tbe masculine head of the family,
he, I knew, would readilv consent.

"Ton are quite complimentarr, mother

thngh my brain that for nnee in my

I toM Loa so, and she imtnedialrlr oan-
elnded that she cnnM never hwk hack
npaa her life with any degree of 4esnrc
if aa engine ride were omittetl. Onne-
'insently we akd Ohntley ab nt it. and
rtenvee bis pcrniwa. and at the next
station, only a few mites fieea h
were escortoil to the enstar. and intra-
doc-l to the engieorr. l

The fireman kktHv cave ns hit seat.
and half afraid, bntwh-ily delighted, Ln
and I looked around ms and awaited the
suiting of onr iron ttevd. Hoar grand
the fire leaked whew the fnraace dor
aasopoaed! The bell was rang; then
earae a deafening hitle, and. kwMiac
oa te each other and the window UrsaJc
Bf, we were off at lat, trarr'iatT na an
engine. How e were J 4ted&nd shaken,
and yet how grand, Wu ma-nifcettt, it
was :a see the track shinsag ahead ef
and tbe fire loiew n siarinir nn into oar
faces! After the ntsttiee mies we cunght
the motion of the engine, and then k
seemed aisBOtt as easy, and n thoesaod
timet more exciting, than traveling h the
car.

rate of twenty-five mihM aa hour, oa an
canine at that.
Xever were tw rfrl hnMer thta Loa
and I that Bfcbt; seer did two dread
diasorless: Xoser until then did we
realize how the men on tve engine held
ia thiir bands the lives of all whoesHesoa

Oa we went, io-'king eagerly ahead,
when suddenly, right before ns, we de
serted a largr tree across the track. Peo
ple think nnickiy at sneh moments, and
in an instant I knew that tbere wa every
probabid'y of U if itfe f..r a all. A
Un-usasd thonghts csme to me ia a rah
home, mother, father, and one even
dearer, seemed te pass before me at once.
1 hare a vague reoollectkin of a noise, a
whistle like the wail of a lost seal, the
voice ol the engineer hoee with terror.
then a great leap, while Lu and I clung
together, too frightened to speak or
cream. Then there came a frarfut jo!f.
and, closing my eyes, I seemed to eaier
e darkness of the srare. The next rec
ollection is of seeing jie stars abore roe,
and fora moment I thought I was flying
through space and getting nearer to tbom.
Then I beard some ose say
"We owe our lire to the courage of
the engineer and fireman." And there-
rpone was
"At to us, gentlemen to the mercy of
trod, fr it seems to me nothing short of n
miracle."
Thoa Lou spoke to me; Iheyall crowd
od around us, and, woman-like, I held on
to Lou and we cried together. It did ut
ni'TC good than a dtug-tre full of med
icinc. Somebody carried mo into the
car, and then my wrist commenced acb
ing. After a w hile wc were quiet enough
to talk it orer, and found out that with
the exception of a sprained wrist for me,
and an ugly but not dan-reman cut on the
head for Lou, wc bad buth Cr&iixd uuia-
jurca. Ufcoarewe were ncrvoa and
-
wtuk, but, think God! alive.
The tvu men on tbe inline were uain'
juied, and from them we lenrned the par
ticulars of the accident. When tbe tree
was seen, the air-break was applied, the
cntlue rcrcrsed, nod the alurm sounded.
But we were right upon the tiee and tbe
engine struck it, then bounded ovef it,
losing its forward trucks. Down the
truck it went a few feet, breakinir nwav
from the train, and finally leaped over
inspine uiicu.
Words cannot do justice to our brave
engineer and fireman, and I don't know
what wc said to thank them. We wcie
only three mutt frost the cad of our
j urner, and everything soemed indistiact
until Lu and I found ourselves ia her
Aunt Cora's arms on the depot platform.
We were nnr.ed and (ictted to oar heart V
content : lut fur day I felt at one who
hail stood in the iKesrace of eternity, and
jnt iu the shadow of death.
Our engineer stood at bit post, ami un
der Heaven saved us all. When I road of
the IVtapeiian sojdier who sto 1 at the
gates f the city, faithful until death, I
hull think of the thousands of smoke
liegiiiamed men who, alt over the world,
"ariy in their hands the lives of millions,
and who die often braver dea'bt tbaa the
PompoitaB soldier deaths never sung in
soog or told ia story.

such finishing s en becomes disesdotrd
and "rp oUhy." There i nothing that
will compare with the otd-fashiooed
