Jonsirr PxKTnoLosfETr'e Dish.—The passage oi
lhe .rain from E-no yesterday morning through the
burning tunnel the other sido of the American Flat
will hare to aland record 83 one of the most bril
liant, a3 well aa fortunate, dashes over made under
such circumstances. -Cold mil Ncics, Oct. 18.
I ain't very much on the fancy,
And all that sort of stuff.
For an engineer on a railroad
la apt to be more “on the rough;’*
He don’t “go much” on his “handsome,”
I freely “acknowledge the corn,“g
But he has to “git np“ on his “wide-awake,”
That’s “Juat aa sure's you’re barn.”
How I’ll tell you a little story
’Bout “a run” we made for necks.
When we thought “Old Gibe” had called us
To “ante up our checks.”
We came 'round the curve by the tunnel,
Just beyond the American Flat,
When my fireman sings out, “Johnny!
Look ahead 1 My God 1 what’s that?”
You bet I warn*! long in sightin’—
There v ts plenty tor me to seo,
With a train full of kids and wimmea
Aud their lives all hangln* on me—
For the tunnel was roarin’ and blazin’,
AU ragin’ with fire and smoke,
And “Number Six” close behind ns:
“Quick, sonny 1 shove in the coke.”
••Whi>tle down breaks,” I first thought;
Then thinks I, “Old boy, 'twon’t no;”
And. with hand on “throttle" and “lever,*;
I knew I must roll ’em through!
Through th&grim mouth of the tunnel—
Through smoke and flame as well—
Bight into the “gateway of death,” boys:
flight smack thro’ the “jaws of helll”
The staunch “old gal” felt the pressure i-,
Of steam thro’ her irou joints;
She acted met iifco shtf was human,
‘ Just like the “knew all the points;*’
She glinted along the traiuway
With speed of a lightning flash,
With a ho*l assuring ns safety,
Begardiess of wreck or crash.
I s’pose I might hive “jumped the train,**
lu hope to save sinew and bone,
And left them wimmeu and children
To take that rido alone.
But I tho’t of a day of rcck’nin’ ••
And what ver “Old John’s” done here,
No Lord ain’t going to say him then,
“Yon went back as an engineer!’’
