record In running a train. The last
stage of the journey found the olllelulj

Still , In spite of these bravo ctTorts
they pulled out of Erie in minutes hue

to Buffalo , the end of the race , and
they must bo there by 11:111 : to win
which called for uu average speed ol
over seventy miles an hour , Including
slow-downs. No train in the world had
ever approached such nn average , and
their own racing average since leaving
Chicago was much below It. So what
hope was there ?
There was hope In n tall , sparelj
built man named Bill Tuukey , nuoul
whom nobody knew much except thai
ho was a good engineer who ran a rath
er clumsy ten-wheeled locomotive not
considered very desirable In a race. Ali
the other locomotives had been eight
wheelers. Still , the new engine had
one advantage ; she carried watei
enough In her tank for the whole run
and need not slow up to refill , as tiu
others had done. She had another atl
vantage ; that she carried Tuukey , oui
of those men who rise up In suddd
emergencies and do things , whethei
they arts possible or not. It was no )
possible , everybody vowed , to read
Buffalo Creek by 11 : 1. "All right , '
said Tuukey , quietly , and then
Within forty rods of the start he had
his engine going thirty miles an hour
and he pressed her harder an I hardei
until eleven miles out of Erie she struck
an eighty-mile pace , and hold It as I'm
as Brockton , when she put forth all hei

the rate of 02Vi miles an hour , as th <
watches showed. "And 1 never , waui

Tuukey had the bit In his teeth UOM
and was running the race' alone.

At 11:20 : they passed Lake View.
"Twelve miles more , and 11 minutes , '

somebody else. "We'll do it easy
Hooray ! "
They passed Athol Springs at 11:21
