We left Lynn* on time and had been

Francois had disappeared, and that I
wan alone In the cab.
"I now realized what had happened.
The lightning had struck the engine
and killed my fireman, who had fallen
..ut of the cab—and 1 was paralyzed.
"I can not find words to describe my
feelings. I know that soldiers In battle
see the comraden fall all around and
still keep on lighting, but lltey know
where the bullets come trom, while my
comrade had been stricken down at my
side, and had disappeared' suddenly and
entirely unexpected.
"Another thought now arose In my
mind. Behind me In the cars more
than two hundred passengers were
sleeping or talking without any Idea
of their danger; two hundred people
were being hurled through space to
ward certain deuth, trusting In a man
who was now paralyzed and unable to
lift his arm.
"My brain was now perfectly clear. I
saw the familiar objects along the line,
and from where I lay I could see the
track two hundred yards ahead by the
light of the moon, for the sky was ugaln
perfectly clear. With lightning speed
we rushed past a small station, but In
spite of the speed I got n glimpse of
the station master asleep, with hia hand
on the key of his telegraph Instrument.
"Then wo thundered Into the tunnel.
The track wae clear, but ahead of us
was a sharp curve, where I knew It
was necessary to slacken the speed. 1
thought we were lost, that the Jar
would tenr the rails from the ties, but,
though the train rolled and pitched as
we struck the curve, tho Lord did not
want us to perish then and we passed
without accident.
"I breathed more freely. In a little
while tho Aiteam would give out and
the train would stop. Tin hralteniuii
would come running up, I would tell
him and we would be safe.'
"Again we passed a station, and with
horror 1 noticed that there was a red
light against us. The track was no
longer clear. That I did not go Insane
then Is a miracle. Only one thought
In my mind: ‘It you do not stop
the train now there wilt be a collision.
All that Is necessary Is to shut' off the
steam and put on the airbrakes. The
levers arc only three feet away, but
you can not reach them. You can not
move a Unger, but must remain where
you are. You muat witness the whole
terrible drama, see the train ahead,
aee It grow larger and larger until you
crash Into IL’
"I wanted to close my eyes, but could
not. A power stronger than my will
forced me to look ahead. Now I saw
the train.
‘It came nearer and nearer. Now It
tvaa only live hundred meters ahead—
now only three hundred. Shadows ran
across the track—now It was only onu
hundred—It wo* th* end, the col
lision—
When I recovered consciousness 1
was pinned down by e wreckage of
what had been my engine and the last
car of the other train. Two Iron beams
were crossed over my head, so close
that I could touch them with my lips.
' heard groans and cries alt around me.
People were running hither and thither
with lanterns. ‘
"I saw anti heard everything, but I
did not move or cry tor help. Through
the masses of debris 1 coutd see a little
part or the aky with a star, the twink
ilng of which strangely enough filled
me with a feeling of Joy and mads me
forget everything else."

REFUSED ROCKEFELLER
WHEN MAGNATE PROPOSED.
From The Loa Angeles Examiner.
•'The hands of my clock are at five
minutes to 12 and 1 can hear, In antici
pation of their Imminent coming, the
strokes.a* they will ring out my life.”
So says Miss Mary (legora Barbeaux,
the most remarkable patient the Coun
ty hospital has had In years, for this
aged woman, with the face of an aris
tocrat and the brow of a aeeresg, might
be moving a queen among the elect,
yet she has chosen a life than which
there could be none more humble and
obscure.
It was Just a year ago that Miss Bar-
beaux . camo into public notice In a
fashion somewhat startling and em
phasized the belief long prevalent at
the hospital that hera was a strange
and almost unaccountable personality.
Nurses had known up to that time
that Miss Barbeaux was a Vassar
graduate and that her rearing had been
that of a rich young woman who had
had, besides, the advantages of breed-
‘ ig and social prestige. But there was
long hiatus In her history which they
could not dridge, and it was never
known how she came to be a ward of a
county poor farm. Her removal to the
hospital was, of course, a natural step
when she became too HT to stay at the
farm.
When a letter was received by Miss
Barbeaux from a firm In Albany, N. Y.,
lawyers something over a year ago no
tifying her, she said, that a retired sea
captain uncle had died, leaving her hia
entire fortune of $€50,000, the specula
tion about the old lady's past was re
newed tenfold.
Yet more startling than this proffered
elevation of a pauper, though she was
the "Queen of the Wards,” to great
and Instant wealth was her own atti
tude.
I will not accept the fortune,” she
said, “because I nave done nothing to
earn It.” Two other letters came from
the lawyers, but her position was not
changed, and she wrote refusing to be
considered as an heir. She burned the
letters, and would not even give the
curious the satisfaction of knowing
where they might get further Informa
tion about the great Inheritance. For
months Miss Barbeaux received letters
from all parts of the United States and
from many foreign countries until they
numbered Into the hundreds. Most of
these solicited gifts, donations for In
stitutions and bequests of divers kinds.:
It came out at that time also, through
the admission made by her, that Miss
Barbeaux had been Intimately ac
quainted with John D. * Rockefeller In
the years of her young womanhood,
