"'You are right,' said I. 'Go' forwa

cans on the wood, and pitch in and s
what can be done.'
"While Jake was forward on his erre
I thought over our situation. Here I w
with a hundred or two passenge
Under mv care, all hillorant of the dang
which 1 .tnew they were in. If we should
be overtaken, and crushed in the rear, the
disaster would be a serious one, and would
probably cause the death or injury at least
of some of the passengers. If we were not
smashed in this way, there was another
and perhaps a greater danger before us.
The train of which I have spoken, which
left Greenport when we left Brooklyn, was
on its way to meet us on the same track. It
should witch off at Lakeland in the middle
of the island, and allow us to pass, an hour
after we started, or at eleven o'clock. It
was now half -past ten, and we were close to
Lakeland 'already, and would pass there
long before the arrival of the Greenport
train, which ordinarily got there first. The
result would be that we should meet that
train beyond Lakeland without warning
of our approach, and a collision in
front as well as the rear would be the
consequence.
"We reached and flew through the Lake-
land depot nearly half an hour ahead of
time. Of course the Greenport train was
not there yet, but was coming down the
road. The telegraph -poles fairly danced
behind us, and the bushes on either side of
the track seemed a continuous wall of fire
as they were lighted by the flame which
was pouring out of our smokestack. But
dangerous as it was for us to keep on, it was
just as dangerous to slacken speed, and so
on we went."
The conductor relied his quid from one
cheek to tha other, raised the window by
hie side and expectorated into the outer
darkness, and became silent for several mo-
ments, as if burdened by the recollectic-...s of
his former perils. After waiting a reason-
able length of time for him to 'resume his
story, I said, "When the collision Occurred,
was it with tIAP '27 ic. in front or in tl \e roar,
or with both?"
;J'•
"Oh, the collision !" said the concnietor.
"Well now you come to the ridiculousipart
of the story. The collision did not 'take
place at all," he said, in an apologetic tone,
as if there ought to have been a serious ac-
cident after so much preparation. "While
I was standing on the platform, thinking
whether I had better warn the passengers
to hold themselves ready for a shock, Jake
came forward dragging after him two large
petroleum cans, each of which would hold a
quarter of a barrel Of oil.
"Well," said the conduotor, settling
down in the cushion, and bracing his knees
against the back of the peat in froiat,"many
years ago I was running the night exprese
on Long Island from Brooklyn to Green-
port, a distance of ninety miles, the entire
length of the road. The Long Island road
was then a one-horse affair, having only a
single track, with switches at the different
stations to allow the train. to meet and
pass. On the evening to which I now refer
I started from Brooklyn at ten o'clock with
the old Constitution, long since broken up,
but then the craok engine on the road, with
a baggage or freight car and three pas-
senger cars. The night was just as dark as
a pocket, or, if anything, perhaps a little
darker," he added, as if he had accurately
tested the eternal obscurity of that Useful
portion of the dress.
"It must have been very dark," said I.
"We were the only replier train upon
the road that night, with the exception of
the Greenport mqirese to Brooklyn, which
was to start at ten o'clock and meet us at
Lakeland Station, in the middle of the
island, switching off there to allow us to
pass. .
we were perhaps six or eight
miles onourway when I stepped out on the
back platform of the rear car to see if it
was growing any 'lighter. We were then
going over a part of the road which was as
straight as an arrow for a distance of four
or five miles. As I was looking
back over this stretch I saw behind us, at
the distance of three miles or so, what I
knew was the headlight of an engine, as it
was too bright for anything else ; for of
course I did not suppose the Government
had been putting any light -houses along the
road."
"Probably not," said I.
"You may be sure I was a little surpris-
ed," said the conductor, "for there wasn't
an extra train once a week npon that road,
and I knew that there was none going out
from Brooklyn that night anyhow. I wait-
ed for a few . minutes, until I saw that it
was really an engine coming, and, what was
more, it was gaining rapidly on us,although
we were going at our usual rate of speed.
When I was 'satisfied of this fact I hurried
forward and said to the engineer, 'Jake
there is a train close behind us.'
"Jake dropped his oil -can and his lower
*writ about the same moment, and looked
to see whether I was crazy or joking.
"'Well, let the fireman attend to matters
here, and come back and see,' said I.
"We hurried to the rear, and in a mo-
ment Jake saw as well as myself that if
there was any joke in the matter we were
the victims of one '• and of rather a serious
one too, for the train in the rear had
gained on us a full mile while I had been
forward. The red cinders were pour-
ing out of the smokestack as if
from a blast -furnace ; the head -light
threw a glare along the road, burnish-
ing the iron rails to our very wheels. Close
ashewas upon us, the engineer of the ad-
vancing train had not given the slightest
signal to warn us of his approach, and made
no response to our repeated whistles of
alarm. He was violating all railway rules,
and if he had determined to secretly run us
down he would act just as he was then
doing. Jake at first seemed to be struck
dumb -not so much because he thethought
of danger, but at the cool impudenof the
engineer behind. He looked as if he would
like to throttle him. His tongue after a
while got in working order, and he broke
out:
"'What does that crazy fool mean?'
"'The engineer mist be either crazy or
drunk,' said I. If he keeps on in that
way ten minutes longer he will surely be in-
40-uslv and Isignalled the -fireLlitin-tcr pcit'
on inoie steatn. 'What business the train
has to -night upon the road at all is what
puzzles me.' •
"1 wonder if it isn't an engine the old
man is sending down to Jamaica to the
shops for repairs?' said Jake. 'I saw the
Ben Franklin standing on the side track
with steam up just as we started. From
the way she overhauls us, there can't be
much of a train behind her.
"I did not know but that Jake might be
right, for I had seen the Franklin standing
in the depot when we left. That engine
was just as fast as our own, and if it was
without a train attached, as Jake suppos-
ed, might easily gain on us, as it seems 4 to
be doing. 'At any rate, we shall see when
we pass Jamaica Station whether Jake's
theory is correct," I thought and said so to
him.
"By thistime the fireman, acting as en-
gineer, had given our engine all the steam
she would take, and we were slashing along
at a lively rate, I tell you. The good peo-
re along the road who were out of their
ede ntust have thofight that a railroad
Gilpin was riding another race, according
to the new style. I was angry enough too
have sent a bullet at the crazy engineer
following us, and I determined that my
first business thp next day should be to
complain to the stiperintendent of his fool-
hardiness. I thought that posaibly, being
for the moment his own master, and no
longer under the immediate orders of a con-
ductor, he was indulging in a kind of a rail-
road spree, and for a lark was driving us to
the top of our speed, expecting to end the
race and his day's work at the same time
a.t Jamaica. 1
,;,
"Well, we, tore thro h that sleeping
village, without stopping r refreshments,
I can assure you, and then Jake and I look-
ed to else our comical friend 'n the rear pull
up at the station flii take 1 dging for the
night', But we were mistake ,in our guess.

" 'Now then,' mid Jake to me, `if you
will oil one side of the track, I will try th
other.'
I saw at once what his plan was. We
each brought the mouth of an oil-cantreas
near to the polished surface of the rail a
ossible, and commenced pouring on it the
kerosene. In less than a minute a half -
mile of the iron mile was nicely oiled and
slippery."
"You have raised mv expectatione of a
catastrophe so high' that you have been
obliged to grease the track so as to let them
down again easily," said I, for I felt a little
nettled at the unexpected turn the story
had taken, and was inclined to believe that
the conductor was d.:awing largely upon
his imagination for the facts.
"Why, don't you kno-v that an engine
can no more make headw ay on a greased
track than a tom -cat can climb a steep roof
covered with ice?" mid the conductor, with
a pitying glance at one no profoundly ignor-
ant of railroad mattere as myself. "1
slapped Jake on the back and said, 'Old
fellow, your cuteness ham brought us all out
of a bad scrape.'
"In a few seconds the lantern of the train
-behind-in was' getting- danin tlidi8tai,ih:
We slackened 'speed and backed down to
see 'what the matter was with Simpson,' as
Jake said. There stood the old Ben Frank-
lin puffing and snorting and pawing like a
mad bull, the driving wheels buzzing around
on the greased track like all possessed,
but not gaining an inch. We sanded
tho track, and bore down upon the old
machine. Jack was the first aboard, spoil-
ing for a good chance at the engineer, Simp-
son. But no sign of an engineer, fireman,
or any other living being was to be found.
The engine had only a tender attached, and
although there was still a full head of steam
on, the fires were getting low. We made
short work in pushing back to Lakeland.
We reached the station, and got fairly upon
the switch when the Greenport train, which
we ehoild meet there, came in, and were
waiting as if nothing had happened, and as
if we had not been fifteen miles out on the
road to meet it a few minutes before.
"The telegraph operator at Lakeland
handed me a despatch which read as
follows:
"'To Conductor C: The Ben Franklin
has broken loose, and is coming up the
road. Turn switch at Lakeland, and
run her off the track.
"'BARTON, Supt..
"'Brooklyn, 10.5 p.m.'
"You see, we did not have much time for
turning switches at Lakeland," he con-
tinued, "ao we did still better, and saved
the old Ben -which was not responsible
after all -from i smash-up."
