THE “ HIGH BALL." hard times had made it necessary —jl Furniture ior the Mitcheil Com pany to cut down the working hours of all of its em J ploves. A little ^ ^ J before more than two a bun- year ~~' 1J dred tired men N TT passed the time ^ J keeper every even ing at six o’clock, homeward bound, Now but ninety hands were employed, including the office force and boys, and work was over every afternoon at f our o’clock. The majority of the men whiled away tho interval between quitting time and their supper hours in the stores and saloons, which surrounded the public square. Malchester had its public square,as every well ordered coun fy sea f should have, and the ad ygrtising leaflet, issued by tho Mai cheater Improvement Society, con tained a most alluring picture of it. There were also in this leaflet some fine "half tone” engravings of the courthouse, * ew high school, Mai chester - 8 6tone churches, the stores of her leading merchants (who paid $25 “to defray the actual cost of preparing the engraved plates”), the new depot and the old round house of the Jacksonville, Malchester and Springficld Railway. Tho leaflet also called attention, in bold, rod display type, to the fact that Malchester was a division point on the Jacksonville, Malchester and Springfield Railway, and that for over a quarter of a cen tury from one hundred and fifty to two hundred employes of the road had made the town their headquarters. One afternoon, as President Mitoh ell’s stenographer, FranS Ashley, was tidying up the papers on his em ployer’s desk, ho came across the leaflets of the Malchester Improvement Society, and the display note about the Jacksonville, Malchester and Springfield Railway reminded him that it was high time to go over to tho round house aud hear a story which his old ■ friend, “Commodore” Foote, t)toj|SnM|Knecr fPSp^msed of locomotive No. 02 , to tell him the -ncxfc4ime he came around. Now, even if tho buildings in which locomotives are housed are universally called round houses, each one, I sup pose, has its shady side. I remember the one at Malchester was so blessed, and here, at six o’clock, well out of the burning rays of a declining sum mer sun, on a portable and improvised bench, made bj r placing a broken freight car door on two discarded “draw heads,” sat Foote and young Ashley. Jim Walsh, tho fireman, was oiling, polishing, watering and gene rally preparing No. 92 for her ap proacliing run. Presently tho fireman had tipped tho long snouted oil can enough to suit even the critical com modore, aud, as if half in sympathy with the mechanism of his engine, the commodore’s power of speech became lubricated, and he began : "It’s a true story. I knew Harry Powers, the engineer of old No. 47, before the war, when his wife was station agent at Malchester, and trains were run wholly by time table. There wero no such things as telegraphic train orders in those days. “Powers made his headquarters at Malchester, and his wife, being the station agent, the company let the family live in the upper story of the depot without paying rent. Powers and his wife and their little girl Elsie lived over the depot for fifteen years, ‘hand running,’ with the exception of about two months, when Elsie was sick with typhoid fever, and they hired a cottage up in the town, where Bhe wouldn’t be disturbed by the noise of engines and trains. It was shortly after Elsio had pulled through u.id they had all moved back into the depot attain that tho thing happened I am f'ointr ° “jflf to tell J you off. ia was twelve years old then, The doctor said it would hasten her tszszsrss&z L?r mother sis he, afternoon .««, berrying. half down the “About a mile and a track toward Millegeville, in a clump of woods, was a fine blueberry patch and here vou could find Elsie almost every afternoon. She could fill her pail quickly there, and then she liked the woods anyway. “One afternoon she had been slow, or the berries were not as plentiful as usual, for it was after six o’clock when she started for home. As she was about to leave the woods and strike the railway tracks she was suddenly C 0 n f rO nted by three masked men. Now Elsie was weak and nervous from her long sickness, and when she re ahzed that she was among robbers she fainted. The next thing she knew she W,’.s coming to, and instead of being murdered or robbed, was being tenderly held in the arms of one of the bandits, while the other two were busy sprinkling water in her face and fanuing her with a piece of crumpled She was so relieved to find that she had not been beheaded M cut into auarters, as the robbers were in Ali B"aba, that her lips began to tremble some sort of thanks. But ‘he minute she showed that she was wnjcions p/inapiArm we fKo roown rolib 6 rs lost i«s do no ume time in id telling her why they had taken such pains to bring her‘round.’ She was to stay with them until eight o clock, the mail and express was due, and signal and stop the train at the Millegeville 6 iding, a desolats side track half a mile down the track from where they were. “A few minutes before eight o’clock a little figure sat on a big tie, at the switch, at the west end of the Millege ville siding. One of tho robbers had a switch key and had turned the switch so as to throw the train off on to the siding. This in itself they reckoned would canse the train to stop. The signal lamp at. the switch had been twisted orouud until it showed the white light of safety, aud tho gleam of tho ‘bull’s eye’ shod just enough light to show the robbers m ambush at the edge of the woods that their unwilling little accomplice was waitipg aud ready to give the signal which would give them the oppor¬ tunity of robbing the express and mail enrs of the most important treasure rail¬ bearing train then run by any road in the State of Illinois. “It must have seemed ages to those four watchers. At last, however, tho rumble of tho approaching train could be heard up the valley, As it flew through the sleepy little hamlet of Millegevillo it whistled and the noise re-echoed against the quiet hills. To the robbers these sounds meant only the rapidly approaching chance of rich gains, but to Elsie, who had risen aud was standing back a short dis tance from tho track, those familiar whistle shrieks meant far more. They meant that her father’s engine was drawing tho train and that if he should recognize her in the dark all her plans would miscarry, However, thero was no time left for speculation. Six eyes gleamed with satisfaction through three black masks as the little figure at the switch light began to slowly wave a white handkerchief as » warn mg signal to the approaching train, “The infinite pleasure of liaviug their well laid plans carry without mishap was felt by tho robbers, as El sio waved more and more furiously, aud the engine could be distinctly heard shutting off steam and slaeken ing for tho stop. Thon suddenly came a quick change. “Olin, ehu, chu,” came in quick succession from the lo comotive, as her drive wheels slipped on the track and made a wild plunge forward. “Chu, chu, chu, chu, onu, chu,” again came from the engine. What could it mean ? The speed of the train was increasing instead of di minishing. Elsio was now signaling wildly, yet onward, faster and faster, came the mail and express. It cn tered tho siding and flashed past the little figure at tho switch light. Even the sudden unexpected swerve from tho main line on to the siding had not diminished its rapidly increasing ve locity. In a moment rnoro it had passed from the siding on to the main lino again and tho signal lights on the rear platform disappeared around o curve up the line, “The robbers now left cover and came over to find Elsie in a faint, tho second time that day. This time, however, they did not stop to bring her to. Thero was no time to bo lost, She had done her full duty,, fulfilled every promiso she had given them. Certainly sho was not to blame for tho train not stopping. Little did those men know as they left her and disap poared iu tho woods tlmf Elsie Rowers had given her father that signal of safety universally known among rail road men as the “high ball. Only a railroad man, certainly no technically unsophisticated tramp or robber, could have told that those liandker chief wavings meant ‘All right! All right! Come on full speed! Como on full speed!’ instead of ‘Danger!’ and ‘Stop!’ From her earliest in¬ fancy, when sho played ir .in with the parlor chairs. Elsio knew well the whole code of technical railroad sig nals, aud sho also knew that unless her father recognized her at tho switch his unquestioning obodienoo to the signals of the road would savo the mail and express from robbery. “Up in Chicago, on the desk of tho President of tho Jacksonville, Mal cheater and Springfield Railway, half buried under a sea of important let tors and official papers, thero is a lit tie silver frame, containing a photo graph of the little girl who, when only twelve years old, saved the mail and express from robbery at Millegevillo siding. Each year, when the Presi dent inserts in his annual report to his Board of Directors ‘For tho efficient service rendered by all em ployes our acknowledgments are due,’ he takes this picture in his hands and sits for quite a long time all alone, buried deep in thought, Ho knows Elsie intimately now, for she is the mother of his two grandchildren. Some of the society people up in Chi cago shook their heads and said that President Roberts’s son Harry was throwing himself away when he mar ned Elsie Powers. ‘But, said the Commodore, as he arose and, button ing his blue checked jumper, turned half round toward young Ashley, at the same time unconsciously extend ing his left arm toward No. 92. ‘I tell you, she’s as good and true as you’ll find them anywhere in the world.’ C1 ““ e0 — __ * *•” - >«•*”«"• Forty locomotives Paris-Lyons-Mediter- have just been ordered for the ranean Road, which mark a new de parture in construction.

Ouo of tho least striking of his financial feats wiuj “l/ung once when he happened to be up” in a hotel without tho where¬ withal to settle. He left behind him a heavy trunk, telling the landlord that lie would soon .return. When a nnynber of days had gone by and Bart <id i|p not reappear, the landlord went to examine the priceless coffer which his guest had left behind him, ijnd iff was much amazed at tho weight it. His most muscular porters could Sot lift it. Theroforo they broko it open to seo what was inside, and when they opened simplj^naileil ’t, they found nothing, for Bart had it to tho door. But tho achievement on which : jie most prided himself was once when 4ie was in a strange city for several days. Ho wanted a new pair of boots. So ho went to a shoemaker and or dered a pair, giving minute directions to their < ‘style. From this corcl as wainer he weut to another, some squares away, and gave him a similar order, couched in exactly tho same language. IIo made both shoemakers promiso to fiiiish the shoes in two days. At tho expiration of the nlloted time, both pairs were dono. Bart tried on tho first pair, and said to Shoemakor Number One that tho left fitted him perfectly but that the right pinched him, asking him to stretch it, which the shoemaker promised to do, nnd Bart carried off tho left boot. Ho then wont io Shooinaker Number Two, aud tried on tho second pair, telling him that while tho right boot fitted him pefcctly, tho left pinched him, and re¬ quested him to stretch it and lie would call for it in on hour. It was done. Bart then took tho two halves of his two pairs of shoes, put them on liis feet, and silently stole away.—Argo¬ naut. How Lobeiignla Died. A correspondent, writing to a South African contemporary, supplies what he states is the true story of tho death of the great Matabelo chief, Lobon gulft. It is n pathetic story. The cor¬ respondent relates: Lobouguln, suf¬ fering from smallpox, worn out by his long flight, disappointed in his hopo of peace, and altogether broken down bv the loss of his cfiiiutry, his 14 iwor and possessions, oam,; to ii ti.fl t iVvIHsf among the mountains aortti of the Shangani River. Hero he boggod his witch-doctor to give him poison with which to end his life, but tho man refused. The de¬ spairing chief went up u hill to tho foot of tho crag which tops it, and, sitting there, ho gazed for a long time at tho sun as it slowly sank to¬ ward the west. Thon descending, he again domnnded poison of his doctor, and insisted, till finally, it was given to him. Onco moro ascending tho slope, ho seated himself against tho krantz, took the poison and gazed ub tho setting sun, stolidly awaiting tho death which presently put au end to his sufferings and his bloo d-stainod lifo. There is something pathetic and grand in tho picture. It is the last scene of tho great epic, tho conquest of Matabclelnnd. liis followers found him seated thero in death, and, piling stones and rocks and around him, they loft him. Whether lie was placed in his royal chair, flanked by guns aud covered over with his blankets aud other possessions, as described in tho South African Itoviow, I know not. All this may bo true, and also that a strong palisade of tree trunks was planted round tho spot, but I give tho story as I heard it, and beliovo that, as it emanates from Mr. Dawson, it is the correct one.—Westminster Bud¬ get.
