Narrow Escaré FROM Deatu.—One of

from death ever

the narrowest escapes heard of on a Canadian railway, we b elieve, was that experienced by Conductor Sulli- van, yesterday, at Brae Station. A train, consisting of two flat and one box car, was shunting. While in the act of running the box car up the siding, Mr. Sullivan stood on the flat car and. pulled the connec’- ing pin to let the box car go. After doing this he a yparently faint ed, fell on the fla’ car and eed off on the track. The flat cars which have break beams three inches from the rail were still ronning toward the siding. The bresk beam on one side caught Mr. Sullivan by the head, and as it di 1. a brakesman—Actemas Me- Donald —eanght him by the feet, and as Mr. Sullivan was boing pushed along by the break beam, with his head on the rail, Mr. McDonald, by lifting him from the track, succeeded in re Jeasing him from

hia perilous position, after he had been pushed along the track in the manner adove deseri bed, a distance of thi rty or

thirty-five Ms. Sullivan Was quite unconscious when released ; but althoug ah his face and head are badly cut, he miracu lously escaped serious injury. He arriv ed ip the city by train re evening, and wiil

Tis hard, oh hard, to see them die, "Tis hard to yield in peace,

And in his Heavenly home above from death set free they sing.

Their pains and troubles now are o’er, Oh cease to mourn and weep ;

For when the pains of death are past, "Tis swect the sleep they sleep.

Oh, mother, blessed is your lot, The mother of angels to be,

For in His holy word he says, ‘*Let children come to me.”
