I had been traveling all the after noon, and it was with a feeling of disgust that I alighted at the little tation D , where I must wait five hours for the train to take me to the city. There was no one on the station but the station master, and as misery loves company we were soon on friendly terms. As the evening wore on I occupied myself in examing the railway maps and in flnlshicg a novel which I pur chased that afternoon on the train At about 11 o'olook I heard the dull and laborous puff of a freight engine approaching in the distance. Louder and louder the noise became, until suddenly with a glare from the head light the great locomotive thundered by the little window, and in a mu ment the heavy train rolled away in the direction fiom. which 1 had come a few hours before. Silence again fell upon us. We continued our talk, Interspersed now and then with moments of quietness broken only by the frequent clicking of the telegraph instrument on the table under the window. At last I flnlshKl nay novel and , once, more sat idly tossing about my watch charm The station master was sitting oppo , lite me, with his feet on the edge of the telegraph table, while be care lessly ran over the columns of news paper. I was on the point of making some remark. whn sudienly there same a sharp clioking of the instru ment, ly companion sprang to the table and answered the ealL In stoutly I saw something unusual had happened. As the little brass key clicked off the message I saw the sUtloQ master's face grow white, then livli. He rose quickly from the chilr, placed his hands over his eyes a ad almost shouted: "My God I tftaat have I doner I sprang to his side, asking htm what was the trouble. H rudely prshed me away, and with look wilch I shall never forget fairly yelled: Don't speak to met Don't epeak tom-P Then he sank into the chair with his hands convulsively grasping the arms. Bat it was onlv for a moment. Qalckly gathering himself, he drew up to the table, and then followed some of the most ex citing moments that 1 have ever ex p-rienced. Wondering what It all meant, yet realizing that something must have occurred In which he was an Impor tant actor, l closely nrea my e es upon aim. JNo sound save the spas modic ticking of the machine and the heavy breathing of its operator wa audible. He sat bolt upright in bis chair, his left hand on the arm, his right busy with the key. His eye were riveted on the table before him For a minute he was busy with his message, and then silence. And wbi. a silence! Not a muscle moved; not a sound could be heard. Even the . i. gent's breathing had stepped Ha watched this machine with the gaz of a lynx. I stood behind him, my 'art throbbing with anxiety and tea- Ai last after a eilence which seemed ages the machine bean to click. I watched him whUe the message CRiue forth from the wires. It was evi dently a satisfactory reply, for he did not appear more agitated. Then the the machine stopped. Ho rose from hiB chair and came toward me. It needed no words to tell me that he badsuffeied during those five mio utes. Great drops of sweat ro'led down his cheeks. His hands shook through anxiety. Placing them both on my shoulders he addressed me thus in a hurried and impassioned voice: 'I dont't wonder that you're sur priBed. Heaven knows that 1 was frightened but lisen I got order this afternoon to stop the freight train which just went by here on our turnout v I was to detain it nntil the Boston express should arrive and then allow it to go oh, but somehow or other I forgot the order, as you know, and didn't think about it till a few minutes ago. ''Soon after it went I heard from B -, two stations above here, say ing that the express had just left there for this station. You see it doesn't stop at A, the one between here and B That message re minded me of my mistake, and now the express and freight had both been running toward the same station If the express had arrived there first and left before the freight got there, or they had not received my message, then then1' He paused in his rapid talk and said in an awful voice; "Then there'd have been a collision, and I'd be to blame, but God &nows that 1 didn't mean to forget te obey that order I" said he impulsively "There was only one thing to bg done telegraph to A .telling them to hold over the train that had arrived there first. That I did. For five minutes, as von saw, I waited in 'mortal agony for the answer to that; message. It came just now. 8aid that neither train had arrived, and that they'd hold over the one that got there first. So thank God 1 I was not too late and that everything is all right." He sank Into a chair and folded his arms on his breast, Hardly had he done this when the ticker began again. He read (the message, sad then, as the clicking stooped, he bowed his head on his hands and sobbed -loud. The message was: Have stopped express here. Will hold over as directed." I . ' ; The Boston train reached D h-ilf an hour late by reason of the stop over at A . Bidding my friend good night, who was now com pletely calmed down, I boarded the sleeper and soon went rolling toward life and civilization. " ? , Two weeks later I came aoross a country paper from the vicinity in which my advenjuro with the ticket agent took place, and I noticed this article. Mnoh to the suri rise of bis friends, Mr John Hnss, the popular and tros ted sta'ion master of , l&at wee resigned his, position and has now, we learn, removed to New York We wish him uiuoli s ices4 i n his new quarters ' ttlchmont StiU Vorth $1,000 The Good Derived from Sarsaoarilla tan Dyspepsia The peculiar combination of stomach tonics and alterative remedies in Hood's Sarsaparilla cannot be equalled, and this superiority explains the wonderful success of This Great Medicine in cases of Dyspepsia, Indigestion and similar troubles. Mr. T. A. Wheelock, a well known citizen of Burlington, Vt., writes: "Six months ago I was badly run down and unable to attend to business. The principal trouble seemed to be due to indigestion and aggravated dyspepsia. I had no appetite, Nothing Tasted Good and what I did eat distressed me. Adtled to this was a nervous disturbance. Physicians that I employed failed to reach my case. I grew worse, loai Utah and almost hope. One day I ran across a testimonial for Hood's Sarsaparilla stating what It had done In what seemed to be a case similar to mine. I got a bottle and In three or four days saw that I felt better. Before I had finished the first bottle, was greatly improved. Bested better, felt better, and knew I was Better All Over I continued with the medicine, and have taken two bottles and now feel better than at any time for the past five years. Feel aa hearty as when a boy. Have regained my flesh, have good appetite, can sleep well, and my nerves are In excellent condition. I would not value a thousand dollars for what It did for me." T. A. Wheelock, Burlington, Vt. Fully Indorsed "We have sold Mr. T. A. Wheelock several bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla and have heard him tell in high terms of com mendation what it has done for him. I know that he has recommended Hood's Sarsaparilla to many others here. Our customers gener ally speak well of it." F. L.
