The conductor of a passenger train
near Saline City, Ind., a few days ago
by bia pi-esence of mind averted a hor
rible accident. Th train was standing
at the station, when by some- mistake a
freight train was backed upon the main
track. The engineer on the passenger
train, to avert a collision, reversed , his
train and with the fireman jumped.- The
collision .was slight, but the passenger
engine soon was running si a frightful
speed. The conductor, noting the de
sertion of .the engineer, and fireman, at
the risk of his life clambered over the
tender and closed the wide' opened
throttle, stopping the train just in time
to prevent a collision with an incoming
