SAVED BY A GHOST. . * _ _ _ _ _ _ _ From my youth up a locomotive has always possessed a strange fascination for me , and I have never tired of watching its whirling wheels and listening to its regular breathing as it has passed me by at stations. To my fancy , it seems a living incarnation of .the spirit of progress , a herald sent from the court of Time to announce thcrmarching of the wonderful ages yet to come , and"clad , like a knight of old in a coat of glittering mail , the very wheels that are crushing out the miles beneath their ponderous rims , hum in an undertone a song of triumph which , ere it dies away.upon the air , is hurlel back in broken echoes from the slender rail over which { he monster runs , and amid the noise Df the steam escaping Jroui its cylin ders X almost fancy that I can heartho whispered word Excelsior which- the motto of the country. There -is something almost human in its cries of rage as I dashes pell-mell across the'-level plains , or labors with smoth- fSreirgroans up the mountains. How many times I have .watched it as it darted by me like an arrow , and wondered at the genius of the man ivho dared fate with such an invention. At such time the smoke-begrimed driver , too , has come in for no small hare of my attention. Ho is a hero , : ven though he do s rip out a savage ath.1 now and then , and wears a greasy blouse instead of a broadcloth oat. Leaning out from his cab win- low as he rushes along in the sun- hine and the darkness , he can almost ouch hands with the pale horse-man iding by his side. There is nothing Between him and the gate that leads 'rom life save 'a ' slender rail that ireaking beneath the hurrying whesls if Jiis cliariot would usher him into Death's court in the twinkling of an aye , and jet he whistles as cheerily is though ho were seated upon the iteps of his cottage home. "Ah ! but , " hear you say , "it is his business. " True , my dear sir , so it is ; but the nan who looks death coolly in the ace day after- day , whether it be for jam or glory , from the open window f Tin engine cab or the wheelhouse of , river steamer , is after all a hero ; hough the heroism may bo of so com- ; uon"a kind as to attract but little at- ention from their fellow-men until' t is brought forcibly to their notice jy the report'of some terrible accident So nuch by way of an introduction. It was one night in the latter part > f November in the year 187 , that I teed in the depot at Buffalo , N. 1. , waiting-to see Uncle Sam's new - hobby by , the'fast mail , come in over the Central road and take its departure wet bver the lake Shore. For soxo reason it was nearly an hour late , and I therefore liad plenty of time to look abBut , me. Walking slowly down through tne depot I paused by the side of the engine , Jd. L. Xansing , ivhich , was'totakethcr "trainwestward Ill-its flight , and Tjfoppcd'for a quiet hat with the engineer , old John M , a great personal friend of mine , and as wild a runner as ever laid a hand upon a.throttle. To use his own ex pression , he would "jest as lievo go into etarnity et sixty miles an hour as thirty-five ez long ez he'd got to go anyway , " and judging from some of , ho fast runs with which he was cred- ted the saying was a true one. "Wo had been chatting but1 a few moments 'together when lie asked me how I would like to ride to Erie with him , mentioning by way of inducement , that he had orders to make fast time with a clear track the -way through , and he just meant to "douse her , you bet ! " As I liad been longing for just sucl an opportunity as this since the first appearance of the "Lightning run , " asit was termed , I unhesitatingly ac cepted the invitation and climbed into old John's place by the window , and scarcely had J done so before the de layed train came stealing into the de pot In a few moments the mails were aboard and the Lansing was made fast to the four white" cars , each one of which had - - eagles paarched upon its etdc , Strange passengers for such a ride. Then came the signal for. the start , and as old John touched the lever the train moved slowly out from the depot and towards the outskirts of the city. It was not until we had struck the open country that the run fairly com menced , and then , with a laugh in his eyes , the old fellow told mo to look out and pulled the throttle wide open. For a moment the monster seemed to Ireihblo undcr-my feet , and -then wo darted off like an arrow. The trunks "of the trees lhat stood by the side o : the track , seemed trans formed into solid walls The fences wer6"narrow"strip * of rib bon fluttering in the wind. The tele graph poles became forests as we passed by , and tfe" ] haysfacks lef "standing in the "brown fioldg were al waltzing together. For a moment , nv heart scemod.tQ.ccasc.its beating , am I "looked at the engineer. Ho was wliistling to himself and as a cool as a cucumber.Then , as the wild rush grew wilder , I , too , began to grow reckless and enjoy the race. Looking straight ahead through the cab windows dews a house , would loom up right in our path , and then as wo struck tlio curve , it would sail off to one side on a sea-of air. Ifaw , a long bridge came on right ahead , and I looked for him to slacken the speed a little. Not a bit of it Bridge's , curves and frogs were all the same to him. Instinctive ly I grasped the scat with a firm grip as wo darted on to it with a rattlinj sound like the rolling of musketry and held my breath until we were safe on .the other side. Than as a sigh o relief escaped my lips , JLJeaned. over and said : "John ' , how fast arc you running now , do'you think ? " "About fifty-five miles an hour , ! reckon , but 'fore we git tor Erie , Tn a goin" to show you that the Lansinj taii traycl a mile a minute in spite o what these railroad sharps say to the contrary. " "How largo a driving wheel have you got ? " queried L "Just exactly five feet eight inches , ' he answered , "but I her run a mile a minute with her , and I kin again. Jos you wait till we strike a straight piece of track , young feller , and then you' ] sec her make lt. ; > She was running fast enough { hon to suitjno ; but I did not dare tali hlm so , Sid then , after all , I might neve have a chance to ride a mile a minut again , At last wo' came to a straigh level stretch of tfacljj and handing m a stop watch , he said : "Start her again when the mile pos is right at tjia cowcatcher , and stop her when ilia next pna is } ij t\o ] \ sam place ; FIT toll yoii > ihcn. th c getsa.-go ing. " Threcfbr four minutes passed in get- ing the speed up , and then as I lookec from the cab windows I realized wha sjj'ty Jjjjles an hour meant Houses came and dsappejurad [ Ijkg njsjnc. Th forests became" "inajstnct in'as cs P haze whose general outlines only Tver discernible. The ribboned fences hac turned to thread-like lines , and th mjlerpysts were drifting bylikethistle down upon the winds. " " "Now take 'cm,1' said old John looking over my shoulder. Twice ! tried It , and both times in vain , but at the third attempt it was a go. "Stop her ! " he said. I did so and the hands upon the dial's fao niarkajipfffifty ne seconds. I'couh hardly btlievo it , an TOl d f ° r M * trjalT Fifty-eight Jjccpnds IL madg anWgr tp 'tlje " "Question k of my cye , ana as m3 John d her up a little bo asked : ell , can-the Lansing run a mile a minute ? " "Yes sir " I "and if , , replied , any body says she can't , send them tome. ' * * } ' & , 'har'Tid ' chuckled , "I knew /he old girl cosM 3 ° it ; but I'm glad you seed it-done , inyhyj , for tljey won't believe old John when he says she done it. A few minutes afterward the train -we to A stand-still at the platform nErie. The eighty-eight miles had > een made , including two stoppages n one hour and forty-six minutes. Dismounting from the engine , which was left in charge of the fireman , old ohn and myself went over to the lotel for supper , and then after wo had stowed away a square meal we ro- 5aired to his room , where wjth the lid of a pitcher of ale and some cigars , wo proceeded to make ourselves com- ortablo by the cheerful fire that ilazod brightly in the little old-fash- oned grate. Soothed into a feeling of content ment by the weed and mellowing in fluences of the ale , the old fellow , after a great deal of urging on my lart , told mo the following true torv : "Now , I don't ask fer yer ter bo urns this yarn I'm agoin' to tell ye , " e began , "but it's true for all that. ain't no great shakes in spinning a tory , 'cause I cannot dress it up like ou feUars that writes for the papers , jut I'll tell yo a strange thing that iappened to mo once , when I "was a oed deal younger than I am nowand kin date my gray hairs Bright from hat time. "It was nigh onto eighteen years ago fiat I was runnin an engine on the old ir line , out of T - , an' as careless foliar ez ever stepped onto a foot- ward. I was pullin' a night run an' lad'for a fireman a little Irishman who as afraid of nothin' , God , man or evil , and whose only ambition was to o through life a flying , though I will say for him that he wasn't a bit af eer'd ' work and kept the brass works of lie old Ajax as bright as a new in. One night in the middle o' lie winter , when the snow was a whirling and drifting , down to , arth in great clouds , we pulled out o' do depot at T - with the fast night xpress nearly two hours late , and with orders to run her through to fast . Somehow j - as as possible. wasn't feeling good that night. 'here ' was something whispered to mo hat tliar was trouble ahead , but once lear of the city and dashing along the rails , I began to feel better , and as wo anced along , trying to make up a itlo of the lost time , I' laughed and eked with the fireman about the girls for ho had one , that feller , at eery tation on the line , and they used to et up nights , too , for to see him vhen he went by. It were about as ark a night as ever I seed. Looking ut the winder you couldn't see a foot afore your face. It was worser than a slack of black cats. The headlight , 0 be sure , lit up the track ahead for wentyor thirty yards , but beyond hat ye couldn't see a thing. We lidn't hev many stops to make n that run , so there wasn't much for me to do but to keep my eye 'on the gauge and see the steam didn't give out. Ther' wasn't but one > ad place on the whole Jine , and that vas the big bridge leading over the 1 - river , and ez wo went hurry- ng along toward that and a gettin' closer every minute , somehow I .got or to thinking what a terrible thing t 'uld "be for a train to go through that mdge and a wondering how many ives 'uld bo lost ef it did. "Tho more I thought of it and the nearer we got to the river the more nervous I became. My fireman noticed it too , and that made it worse. few , just afore mo came to the bridge , har was a big curve , an" ez I was a-looking out of the winder and .traight ahead I seed a woman all in vhito standing on the curve and a-waving her arms at mo for to stop. 't didn't take me more'n a second for ter whistle brakes , reverse the engine and shut her off , but when I ooked out o' the winder again ; he woman had gone. Slowly we came to a standstill , and then the conductor and the passengers came a-running up for to see what was the ; roublo. I told 'em what I had 'seed , and taking my lantern I started out with the conductor ahead to see what wo hed stopped for. Thar' wasn't a single footprint on the snow that wo could find nor a rail out of place , and he bridge was all right. The boys aughed at mo for stopping , and some o' the passengers cussed mo for a fool , sut I didn't care for that. I stuck to .t I seo'd the woman , but they axed mo what I hed for supper. Now them days I didn't believe in ghosts , an' don't generally now , but this thing kind o' beat me. I didn't say much , but climbed into my place , and it warn't long afore we had crossed the bridge and were running faster than ever. That ninlit , after wo had got to C - , the fireman and I talked it over , for ho seo'd it as well as mo , but "we couldn't como to no agreement re garding it , for ho were a believer in spooks an' sperits , and I won't. " T'A couple o' nights afterward wo caught the same run , an' , if anything , no worsor weather than wo had hat aforo. I remembers it % vero bitter cold , so cold that the rails kept a stir- gin' like mad under the whuols , and ] had to run with the windows all shui down to keep from froezin' into a statuq oi ) the boot-board. The nigh I were clear , but terrlblo windy , am running over some , o' thorn prairies ' - looked for a gust to blow the train into the ditch , engine an' nil , It just hap pened , too , that wo were delayed a1 some o' the stations along the line and had to run like the devil fcr to make .up the time that wo had lost The conductor , an1 by the way ho were the same follor I had had afore , wai a cross old curmudgeon that hac more enemies than friends along the line o' the road , an * a man that jiato for to bo behindhand the worst sort o -a way. To tell the truth , ho were a littlg soaiy , an' didn't like to ride oi a train tljat was a raging fgr to catch time. At ono of the stations where we stopped for water he came a-walk- in' up to me ez I was oiling , and said " 'John , for God's sake , don't see no ghosts on the hjg curve to-night we're behind enough already , ' " 'Alright Jim ! ' said L If I see 'en I'll run 'em down eh' " "Ho didn t niaKo no answer to that but walked back and gave -tho signa to "go ahowL " , , The old girl steaijio ( bully that" night , and it wasn't long afore we was tearing along the rails like a comet "That night jus afore wo came to the curve I wpro a setting back in the corner of tlio oab. an1 l d.reamin' ez , a man will that's a little gene on a gal for I was a young fellow then an' heat over heels in love with oz pretty a piece o' calico oz ever you so your eyes on when all of a sudden I seed that Irish man tjjat was a-firin' for mo turn e : white bz a hhe&t , a.n' touching mo h pointed ahead to the curve. Lookiii out I sce'd the same woman thatlha * soo'd afore , and she were a-goiu through the same motions for mo tc stop. Itsj : p Jjght outdoors that .

The tracks were allTjjjht , am } th.epo va.n'Hl ' ? ? iijgn p' the woman to bo see'd anywhar , though the hull train sarchod for her high an' low , an as for the conductor , Tie were the maddest man I over seed. Ho gushed njo fgr a.11 the different kind o' fools that were in the dictjqnt ary , while the pasaengerg just stood 'round an1 laughod. "As for mo , .1 didn't say. nothin' back , for I couldn't T know'd , though , that me and the fireman , had see'd suthin' , and I know"d that that suthjn' TOS a woman , but whether f were a ghost or not I uidnjt knoifj fcn' after Chlrikin1 the matter D.YCJJ : I came to the co'n'slusijm tiiart wouldn't bo foslcd that way again , anyhov , , ' "Of course , whenweroaohod C - * * y and the conductor made his report , he mentioned the matter , -and the result was that I got orders' 'for to visit the office. Old KcrnalB - was our superintendent and a mighty strict one , an' lather sxpestefl tlt < I were a-goin' t6 get.the . .bounce , but I didn't I told him just what I had seo'd , and the Irishman told him the same thing. He laid it to our 'magination , . but ! could sec that ho wore a little put out hisself , though ho told me mighty plain afore I left that cf I couldn't make the time on that run he'd have to put on somebody that could. "As you kin'magino , I Trent out mad , and I swore that whether it were woman , ghost or devil , I'd run it down the first time it showed up tor give mo a chance , and what made it worse was that my being stopped by nothin' was told all along the line , and everybody was a-makin' fun of mo. "At last they made it so not for mo with their joking thot I couldn't stand it , and I asked for two weeks' leave of absence , hoping that by the time I came back the hull thing would have blown over. Wall , I got it , an' was agoin' to start the next morning , when one of the boys was taken sick and I was ordered for to take his run , an' agin it wore the cussed night ex press , an' this time four hours an' a half late. "When I climed into the cab that night I found a new fireman , for the Irishman had refused to go. Great God , what a night it were ! It had been thawing for two days , and just afore wo pulled out o * the depot it had started to rain. The water came down in bucketsful , just -as if some devil had knocked the whole bottom put of God's cistern ; and talk about its being dark , young feller , it were the darkest night I ever saw , and if the blackness thet Moses sent down over Egypt were any worse nor thet , I'm sorry for old Herod , that's all. I wan't in very good humor , an' when old Jim passed me on the platform an' muttered something about ghosts , I jest ripped out an oath an'swore I would stop for nothin' . "Things went wrong from the start , aa they generally do when a man loses his temper. The old Ajax wouldn't make steam , an * as a result we jest kept on losing time. The fireman was a greenhorn , an' so I hed to do the most o' the work myself. Then that darn ghost o' mine kept a gettin' into my head- , spite o' all I could do , an' the nearer we came to the river the more I were a wonderin' ef she would show up. It warn't no use lookin' out the winder , 'cause you couldn't see nothin'anyhow , except right in the glare o' the headlight. I couldn't tell where wo were only by guessing , till 1 heard , over the noise made by the en gine , the roarin' o' the river , an' then I knowed that I must bo a roundin' the big curve. I hadn't seo'd nothin' yet o' the woman , an' I was hopin' I wouldn't , though I didn't mean to payne no attention to her cf I didwhen sud denly glancing out ahead , I see'd her a standing right in the glare o' the icadlighta movin" her bare anus and a pointin' ter the river. "In spite o' all I'd said an' afore I cnow'd what I were a doin' I hed reversed the old Ajax and whistled for brakes. Then as the train slowly came to a stop I stepped out with the antern , but just as afore the woman : iad gone. I don't know what it was , Dut suthin' whispered to "me to take a ! ook at the bridge , an' I started down iho track lamp in hand for to do so. "Aforo I reached tliar , however , old Jim had caught mo and naked what wes the trouble. I told liim the same old story , an' ho cussed as usual , but jest as ho were on the point o' callin * me a fool we came to the river , an" well the bridge was gene an * lie didn't finish the sentence. "I was pretty wet , but in spite o' that I jest knuckled right down be tween the rails and thanked God for ? ivin' mo a warnin' . Ez fer old Jim lie turned dead white , and went to crying , but the first thing he did when lie could speak was to bog my pardon tor the cussin's he'd give me. If ye jver set'd a thankful set o' passengers it war them I was a pullin' . Some : ried , some prayed and s mo laughed , but thar wani't a man on the train that made any fun of old John. " "Was it a ghost oldman ? " I queried , as ho bit the end off a fresh cigar. "It warn't a livin' woman , that's certain , " ho answered , "an1 yo can call it a ghost or not , just as you liko. Ono thing sartain , whether it were a ; host or a shadow , it saved a big wreck on the Air line , an' the queerest part o' the hull thing is that my hair was a dark brownwhon ( I left T at 11-45 p. m. , but the next monjin' I were as gray as a badger , and I'm a-goin' to insist to my dyin * day that a woman was the cause of it. 1 hat's my story , an' as I said at the start , you can believe it or not , just as yoij lilo.
