My eyes and ears are not aa good aa they were ten years back." Billy soon had the gate open for Malone to enter, and as the two drew near the others the old man asked, "What are yon sitting here for, and what do yon rant with me?" "The same old thing, Johnny; we're waiting to take out first section of four, and to pans the time we want yon to tell ua again of that trip yon made back in the eighties which made yon leave the footboard." The old man took a seat, filled and lighted his pipe and puffed away vigorously for a while before replying. "Well, boys," he said at last, "I don't particularly like to talk about that run, and it is hardly the right kind of a story to spin to you as you are going to take out tha same train 1 had that night, but if yon want to hear it I'll go ahead. "It's been a good many years ago,, but . 1 t Jl, cdh-nc- a llar-rubar- g. tha night it happened dream, though everybody Uiouglil so." 1 needn't tell you fellows that fast line waa the first east bound passenger train after the mail express, which left here about 7 o'clock. We generally got the train from the Pittsburg division about half an hour to an hour late, bat as we only flagged at Tyrone and Huntingdon we always came into Harrisburgon time to the second. This was easy on a down grade and a hundred and thirty mile run without a stop. The way we used to yank the coaches along the river was a and many's the time we rattled over the Juniata at a mile a minute, not rven slowing down for Spruce creek tnnnol. "At that hour of the night we nearly always got the white light from the towers. Now and then the green would be given and we had to reduce speed, but rarely the red. Well, this thing of running a train like four with a clear track, no stops and nothing to see but the ballast and trees alongside of the rails makes a fellow grow indifferent, and I wont say a little nervous. It is wearing on a man to speed along through those mountains hour after hour in the middle of the night, never seeing a light except iu the tower, and feeling the cold air blow in on him from those hills rising hundreds of feet overhead. An engineer cannot tell what instant he's going to crash into a landslide. I tell you a night run is enough to make a man feel mighty solemn when passing through Jack's Narrows, or half a dozen other barren rocky spots, such as can be found between here and the Susquehanna, all of which you boys know well. "The night I was speaking of we left here thirty minutes late, and a hot box on the smoker held us fifteen minutes more at Tyrone Forges. When we got started again 1 pulled her wide open and let her rip. We had nine cars on, three of them sleepers, and that was a heavy load for one of the old style engines, but we bumped along at a lively rate.. Beyond Huntingdon we fairly hummed along the canal, depending altogether on the towers, for it was so dark we couldn't see even the Juniata right below us. We had no further trouble as to delays. The east bound freight and coal trains were all sidetracked, and we did not even get a green light until we reached Lewistown Junction. "Somehow or other I was not feeling tnyself that night, and I don't believe the fireman and I had half a dozen words in the first hundred miles. As we run through the Narrows I leaned out of the cab and kept an eye on the track for rocks. It was impossible to see any distance, however, and as I turned around to look for the tail lamps on the rear elaeper I thought of the scores of people buhind me riding in fancied security, while the only safeguard from wreck was in Providence. Straight up on the right rose the mountains for nearly a thousand feet, and on the other hand was the Juniata, d:irk and unreal in the wavglare of the headlight. ering ' "On and on we wait, past little vil irra CONTRACTOR A5D BUILDER, ,j UiMLV, ITAII. .niWi t CAPITAL, iaifuu - Wbmm SHWK). fwiiata4 aa a.li. lUkU.
