An Englishman '.'as bragging rif lhe

traveler seated at his side, in one of the

an opportunity of “lakitfjj down Ins

“What’s that noise?” innotffcntly in-'

••We are approac’lfTiTg 2 town,” said
tlie Englishman, “they hare to com

“we've got belts, but can’t use them

••Indeed!” exclaimed the English
man.
“Fact,” said the Yankee, “had to

whistle was tried. We were going at
a tremendous rate, hurricanes were

crossing the track, about live units

on, screeching like a trooper. li

The next thing i knew I e. ..3 picking
myself out of a p >nd by the roadside,

the whistle came along, mixed up w ith

the engineer use when he ii>st saw the
horses. Four fellow !he was dead be

we tried lights, supposing they would
