A Boy's Presence of A NEWS MANY

rHE PLUCK AND COOLNESS OF BOY AND HOW HE SAVED LIVES.

In conversa Ion with a prominent the other day the subject of | railroad accidents and escapes came up. | “One of the most remarkable instances | of presence of mind of which | have} ever heard,” said he, “was related to me | by Colonel John D. Wicklitfe, not long | yo. It was on the Louisviile and | N. ishville Railroad near the Muldraugh’s | Hilltunnel. At that time the of running trains Was io a very e'emen tary state. The practice was to run} ’ ne way at a time. In the} trains would be started | vuisville and in the | evening they would be run back. They were preceed i by auother traio and al) a distance of about a mile a third one} They pulled out from the | and made as good} fairly on the|

tollowed. depot at a late hour time xs possible when road . Everything went smoothly} enough till the tunnel was reached, when the firsttrain was halted by a ignal just before entering. Upon in-;{ vestigation it was found that a freight | train had broken down in the passage. |

“Every one who has been over the road knows how steep is the grade ot Muldraugh’s Hill. Toclimb it the en- ginecrs put on every ounce of steam and take off the br: ikes till th e friction is re ineed toa minimum. is but a short distance from the tunnel

anda deep curve in the track hides an approachingtraintillwichioa few hun- dred yards. Up thio, incline,but hidden by the curve,was heard the puffing of the third troip "The carseat. engine was laboring gallantly and drawing the long string of cars behind her as easily as a trotter the light sulky of his driver. The summit was reached and with a wild shriek of delight, the train sprang around the first curve and darted upon the ‘r-atle-work. The momentum gain- ed in the upward struggle carried it aeross with race-horse speed and the track quivered and stretched beneath itseager tread. The cold night air vibrated with tbe puffing of the engine and the hills echoed and re-echoed the shrieks of the whistle. The train was not two minutes’ distance from the se cond section when first heard. The horror-stricken passengers in front were caught in atrap. The rear train had been totally forgotten and it was now bearing down upon them, bringing death and torture nearer and nearer.

“Atthatawful momenta newsboy, with a great bundle of papers, dashed like mad through the car to the rear. The men yielded an instant passage and he was but a moment in reaching the rear platform. How he manag- ed it no one knew, but he had whipped out a match and hada buodle of papers in flames just as the headlight of the advanciog engiae appeared around the curve. flis entire stock flamed up, and he waved and shouted, his face and form lit up as perhaps was Cuasabiaoca’s on that fatal dayat Trafalgar. The en- gineer saw him just in time. He reversed his engine and put on brakes so rapidly that his train simply bumped against the onein front. The pluck and presence of mind of the boy had saved scores of lives.

‘About five minutes after the pas- sengers realized that they were saved, a collection was taken up among the officers and the newsboy was made richer by $500. I wish that I could recall his name, but itis doubtful if it will ever be known. — Louisville Courier- Journal.

ap Choice of Occupation.

Parents often complain that their sons have been to school ail their lives, have no choice of oceupation, or that they choose to be accountants or clerks, instead of manufacturers or mechanics. These complaints are invariably unrea- sonable ; for how ei one choose at all or wisely when he knows so little ?

j contident y eliove that the develop- ment of the manual elements in school will prevent those serious errors in the choice of a vocation which too often wreck the foadest hopes. It is not as- sumed that every boy who enters a manual training schvol is to be a me- chanic ; his training leaves him free. No pupils were ever more uaprejudiced, better prepared to look below the sur tace, less the victims ofa faise gentil- ily, Some fiud that they bave oo taste tor mannuai arts,and will turn into other piths -law, medi cine, or literature, Great facility in the acquisitiva and the use of language is often accompanied by a lack of either mevhanical interests

SAFE made, such as :

ist. THE PATENT INSIDE BOLT WOR K, which is placiag the bolt work with the whole of the filling (six inches) between it and the outside, that is, as far from the tire and thief as if can be.

2ad. THE PATENT HINGED CAP—the back plate of ‘the door being on hinges, enabling the owner, by turning a thumbscrew, to have eesy access to the lock and boit- work. He can thus easily change the Ieck, clean, oil, and keep the bolt-work in good order,

3rd. IRON INSIDE LINING, stronger than wood, and which retains the moisture in the filling for an indefinite time. Wood is thicker and weaker, and after a few years absorbs the moisture and ‘‘requires filling over ag ain,

5th. SOLID ANGLE IRON FRONTS, BACKS AND CORNERS, which prevents warping or injary to safe from falling, or falling walls or timbers.

6th, LIGHT FLANGES—the most imp rtant improvement ever made in fire-proof safes, providing e'ght laps, thus preventing the passage ot heat, it having to psss over twelve inches, no injury arises from this source, as in other safes containing one, two or three flanges.

THESE SAFES have stood the test of years, and the gre atest fires on this continent, and have the CHAMPION KECORD in the Boston, Chicago and Haverhill Fires.
