The knld-licndcd rnllrond mnn who frequents -
quonts the Totunda of the Gront Northern
lotel tlirso evenings , rclntcs the Chicago
hronlcle , Is usually the center of qulto a
group of UningcrB , for ho has many Inter-
sthiR Incidents of adventure to relate.
"When I was n section boss down In
Texas , " ho said llio other evening , "I had
tlio crookedest picco of track In the elate
couldn't sco two telegraph poles nt one tlmo
it any point on my section. Right Where
lie tool house \vnn thcru was n curve and
nt one end of tlio curve there was n. switch
'or ' n passing track. I had my men working
0110 day around the curve , near the tool
: iouse , and white they were filling In a
> leco of track 1 mceeycJ down to take n
look at the switch nt the other end of the
curve. The men were nbout a quarter of
a mlle from the switch , but out of view
around the curve. In those days v/o didn't
alee the precaution to put blocks of wood
u the chinks of ( ho frogs and at the end
of the guard rnlle ns thuy do now to keep
jrakcmen from getting tlu'Ir feet fast. It
wo had I would not have b en telling this
story , because It wouldn't have happened.
'An I wns poking around the frog I got
one of my heels wedged In one of the nu-
nerous openings nnd could not gut myself
free. I tugged nway and H\voro a little
under my breath , but n machinist vise
could not have held that heel tighter than
; ho frog did. You can easily Judge the ex-
lent of my nlnrm when I heard a train
whistle for n crossing which 1 knew to bo
n mlle and a half from the point where Inns
n-ns fastened. I looked nt my watch ; It
was tho4 o'clock 'cannon ball' from the
west , and 1 know Hint Itvuuld bear down
upon mo In three minutes unless I suc
ceeded In wrenching the heel off my shoe ,
which appeared a hopeless task. The train
would shoot around the curvo. the engineer
would not have tlmo to even slow down lu
response to my elgnol , and I would be
giound beneath the wheels. The train was
approaching from the direction of my men
and I shouted , hoping they might hear ma
and flag It. but It was a vain hope , and I
lieard the train roar across a bridge lesa
than a mile away. I was beginning to
ilespnlr , but cast n. glance around to see If
lielp was coming from any other quarter ,
when I saw a small , tow-headed boy standIng -
Ing In the mlddlo of tlio track behind roe ,
" 'Run up there , ' I yelled , pointing toward
the tool house , 'and Hag the1 cannon ball. '
"Tho boy looked at me but did not budge.
" 'Run , run , ' 1 whooped again , 'or I'll ba
killed ! Don't you see my foot's fast and I
can't get off the track ! '
"Tho boy said nothing- , but put his hand
In his pocket and pulled out his jackknlfe.
I thought ho would look for a stick next
so he could wlilttle while he discussed my
proposltlou , ns they do down In Texas. I
could hear the engine bell ringing to warn
my men to clear the track , and I knew
that there : remained but a few seconds be
tween myself and death , as the boy had
stood Inactive too long to get any distance
away and signal the engineer.
"But the boy was not. as stupid as I had
thought him to tie ; Indeed , he was not half
as stupid as myself. Ho didn't look for a
stick , but ho stepped up beside mo. stooped
down , ran the keen blade of his knife over
my shoo string , straightened up , grinned
and said :
" 'Yank yer foot out , mister ; here she
comes. '
"I rolled off the track and the train
swept past , and the boy sauntered away
down the track just as If nothing at all bad
happened. "
GET THEIR TIPS FROM CROOKS.
llaiilc ( Hill-lain Take iMeniiM to I'rolvct
Tliolr TrciiHiiru from Tlilcvi'x.
It is said by a police official at city hall
headquarters , relates the Chlcngo Chronicle ,
that some of the city banks , whoso hoard oi
surplus cosh has been Increasing largely of
late , have been experimenting with an ex
pedient long in UPO by Bank of England
officials of paying known crooks for luforma-
tlon of any contemplated raid upon their
vaults. The Bank of England's first experi
ment of 'this ' kind dates from 1800 , when th *
directors of the bank listened to a startling
proposition rondo by a "ditch digger. "
The laborer < told the directors that ho bad
discovered a now and unsuspected method
of getting Into the cellar vaults , wbcie tba
gold aud silver bara were kept , and that ha
would sell his secret to Uiem for money ,
The directors hesitated , believing that they
had taken every precaution against , loss
from tbo vaults In putting up heavy masonry ,
with plenty of Iron bars , and by manning
the building with aimed watchmen. But
finally they granted the mnn , who eocmcd
to talk fnlrfy , a chance to try bis plan , and
night was named for tlio undertaking.
At the appointed tlmo a committee of tb
directors descended to the cellar and heard
a peculiar scratching- pound under their
feet. Two hours later the iloor opened and
the ditch digger bobbed up serenely , Ilka
tlio evil spirits In the spectacular drama ,
All around them lay bars of precious molal ,
totaling In value 3,000,000. The man ex
plained satisfactorily how It was done and
as a reward the directors assured him an In *
coino for life on an Investment of $10,000 ,
The cVook was content and It Is believed ho
remained honcHt over afterward ,
Dut other cracksmen were tempted by his
luck to try the same game and the directors
were Inundated with nuggeetlons and tips
on now niethodH of burglary and how to pre
vent them. Among other things , they paid
J20.000 fpr a process , Invented by a young
clicmlf/f' for copying the Ink , paper , water
marks und designs of the bank noted BO per
fectly as to defy detection. Tbo directors
found they could use bis system rooro satli-
factorlly and moru profitably than their own
Jti the production of their currency.
Dceplto the fact that theeo expenditure *
liavo run up Into big figures In the last half
century the directors of today say that all
tbo money was well Invested ,

Chicago Post : "I overheard the peaplo

"Did vou ? " Mrs. Wlckllns exclaimed , 1)0-

"I couldn't hear It all , but the trouble

clared that eho would never speak to lirn (
