Milllieim onlths L. C. ft S.' C. R. R., has a
population of 600, is a thriving business
centre, and controls the trade of an average
radius ot over eight miles, in which the
Jouux.lL lias a larger circulation than all
other county papers combined.
Advertisers tciil vlease make a note of this
RUNXINiI "PILOT."
"Who is standing pilot this eve
ning ?" said the Superintendent, or
"boss" as no was called.
"Seth Martin," was the foreman's
reply.
"Tell him to come here, will you ?
and hurry op."
The foreman hastened away, and
both he and Seth Martin must have
"spread themselves," as the former
said, for in a few minutes the engiue
driver stood before his chief.
The great man took a comprehen
sive look at the engineer, who flinch
ed not a muscle. liis clear steady
eyes were as blue as the sky ; a
handsome brown beard ornamented
his face, which, albeit rather dirty,
was full of character and determina
tion. To use the popular expres
sion, "be was pure gold down to
bedrock."
The Superintendent, satisfied with
bis scrutiuy, nodded to the engine
driver and said ;
"There's a specie train up out of
Collinsville to-night, Seth."
"I know that," Avas the curt re
sponse.
4 'And it will require close watch
ing," continued tha chief.
"I s'pose so—l know that," re
peated Seth.
"You are mighty kuowin' this
evening," said the Superintendent,
smiling, 4 'but there is one thing you
don't know, sonny. You don't
know that you are going to run pilot
to that train."
"Yes, I do," replied the engine
driver.
"Who in thunder told you, the a ?
I didn't know it myself till ten ifliu
utes ago."
"Yon told me this minute, then I
knew it," replied Seth, smiling, and
disclosing his white, even teeth
"l'm ready, boss."
"Seth Martin, you ought to be a
judge ; your talents are thrown away
on this line. But listen ; we've no
time to sp it straws in chaff.
There's a very festive gang of des
peradoes hanging about up Hartford
way. They nearly wrecked the
thiougli Pacific lust 4 week. Fortu
nately, the passengers was handy
with their shootin'-irons, and bul
lets was rainin' thick, else
there Avould have been something
unpleasmrt*"
"Wa'al," said the engine driver,
"go ahead."
' Now, you must run pilot to the
specie train and see that the line's
clear up as far a3 Dartford City.
Ye can't shunt at the trestle bridge
siding, and wait to pull the wagons
up the Bunker incline through the
cuttings. Once safe there, ye can
rattle along, and mind ye keep a
good lookout."
"You bet 1" was Setti's reply.
"I'd better take my six-shooter, I
suppose. We'll have to Gght, may
be ?"
"Most likely," replied the Super
intendent, coolly. "Keep this qui
et. I've got men on the lo kout
along the line. Who's your mate ?"
"English Tom Atkins," was the
reply. "He's gi it 1"
"All righ tneu," said the chief.
"Now don't drink ; keep a full head
of steam ; bring back the specie
safe, and "
"Wa'al ?" drawled the other,
coolly.
"I'll provide for your family if
you're hurt or shot; if not, I'll re
ward you."
"Is that all, then ? Well, good
night, boss, and thank ye."
"Good Tuck," was the reply ; "I'll
not forget you."
Setli Martin turned away with a
nod of acknowledgment aud directed
his steps to the shed where his en
gine was "standing pilot." This
means the engine had steam up (or
was "in steam," to speak technical
ly) , and was ready for any sudden
emergency. The driver was just as
well pleased to run a couple of hun
dred miles on a dark night, even
with the chance of being shot, as to
have au invitation to the "White
House" itself.
"Tom !"
"Hallo ?" came back in an un
mistakable English voice.
"Fire up a bit ; we're bound
west; specie pilot; 10 o'clock.
Keep it quiet."
A man unseen by the driver put
up his head to listen,
Seth was a man of action, and so
was his mate, Tom Atkins. They
looked to the engine and their revol
vers ; put a dozen cartridges iu a
tin can ; filled a similar can with
some old Bourbon whiskey at a sa
loon close by, whither they were fal
lowed by the man who had been
listening to their c mversation, and
who u ted tlitir preparations.
After communicating with some
accomplices, this mysterious indi
vidual left the saloon and made his
way toward tho signal box which
stood some distance down the line.
As soon as the engine diiver and
his mate were recognized, tkey were
warmly welcomed,{or they were fa
vorites. Many drinks were tender
ed for their acceptance, and declin
ed on various pleas, till at length
one man declared the Britisher want
ed to fix an insult on a free-born
citizen, lie ollered Seth and Tom a
glass apiece, saying ;
"What's up, mate? Twore off,
eh 1"
"For this evening," replied Seth,
44 but as I'd rather drink than fight
just now, I'll take your treat. So
the .men each took the proffered
glass, but scarcely tasted it ; and
soon afterward Seth, fearing that
inkling of his intended mission
might leak out, beckoned to his fire
man to follow as soon as possible,
and then left the saloon. Jlle lit a
cigar, climbed up into the "cub" of
bis engine (all American locomotives
are protected and closed in), and be
gan to smoke.
He smoked in comfort for about a
quarter of an Lour, then ho felt
"queer." "These is stronger cigars
than usual," ho muttered, and 1 e
threw it from him. But theoppres
siou on his brain became heavier ;
he felt very sleepy now.
"I think I*ll have a nap ; it's only
about 0 o'clock. I must; there's
an hour yet. I wonder where Tom
is. It's my opinion Tom will drink
too much or "
His train of thoughts was sud
denly interrupted* All at once it
flashed upon him that he himself
hail been "drugged" in the saloon !
"That's it ; what a thundering
idiot lam !" lie essayed to rise,
but felt quite bewildered. He made
hopeless attempts to stand upright,
rut could do nothing. lie was as
useless as a child, but, worse than
all, he was conscious of his inability
to do his duty. Ten o'clock rang
out. He struggles to his feet. His
head was spinning around, his feet
were heavy as leaden weights, lie
opened the sliding doer, but ere he
could descend a blow from behind
sent him flying into space—a splash,
and down Ve sauk into a large pond
containing a quantity of surplus
water for the locomotive tanks.
At the same moment three men
climbed up on the engine and, with
a low but hearty chuckle, started it
out from the siding.
"I think Ave did that neat," said
the shortest of the party. "I diduT
listen to the boss for nothin' this
time. The specie train will run af
ter all, you see. 6h ! they couldn't
catch mo teippiug. No, sir !"
"The Savage will do the bridge, I
suppose," said another. "lie's to
work on the up line, isn't he ?"
"Aye, only on that side. Ye did
that Britisher pretty, I must say.
tie and Seth was kinder cautious
too."
"1 mixed it strong," said the oth
er, with a savage laugh. "Did you
settle the signals, abe V"
"Aye ; telegraphed ourseWes on
special, and then cut the wires and
smashed the instruments. We're
clear now to Dartford City. What's
that ? he added, hastily, as the en
gine lurched for a second and then
lifted.
"Only the points. We're out
now. We can run easy, I s'pose. I
She won't bust, I hope. Here goes."
The speaker, who knows very lit
tle about engine driving, turned on
the steam and away they went. He
turned hi 3 head for a moment.
"There's something moving yonder;
they've found Seth, likely,"
But this portion of the gang of
desperadoes had met their match in
English Tom Atkins. For a mo
ment or two he had been overcome
by the drugged whisky, but a simple
and very effective remedy cured
him at the cost of a few moments'
sickness. Creeping along the
ground, for he could not walk, he
conceived the idea of following these
men ; so lie held the points open
and sent the "bravoes" away into i
the night on the up line. He pro
posed to give the alarm and follow
(on the down metals)with a superior
force. But fate was drawing the
fugitives to destruction. The up
line was cut at the bridgo.
"Lend a helping hand, mate, I'm
drowndin' !" This is what Torn
heard as he crawled rather than
walked across the metals to seek as-"
sistanee.
"Seth—Seth Martin ; what's hap
pened to you !"
"Them varmints tossed me iu
here when I was half stupid, but the
water has done me good. Help me
out, Tom, and we'll fix them yet."
Tom, who was rapidly recovering,
lent all the assistance he could ; and
then|the dripping driver, quickly
wringing the water from his clothes
said, when his mate had told him
what he had done—
-1 i"Dou't breathe a syllable to mor
tal maq. I know Bob Franklin's
engine is in steam by now for the
cross traffic. We'll fire her up and
run them down. We may save the
specie yet. Hurry down to the sig
nal box while I get out the engine."
Tom hastened away as desired,
but soon came back with the intelli
gence that the box was empty and
the wire cut.
~We darsen't say a word now,"
said Seth. "What fools we were to
take them drinks ! Now, Torn, shove
in some wood while I oil the cranks.
I'll leave word for tho foreman ; we
must trust him."
All these preparations were made
almost as quickly as they are de
scribed. In ten minutes the engine
was ready, and as noiseless JUS possi
ble the great locomotive was brought
out of the shed, but tender first.
"Never mind," said Setli, when
Tom objected. "We can run about
as ouick. Now, are ye ready !"
The foreman came up at that mo
ment. "If ye do succeed," he jsaid,
"your fortunes are made. If you
fail I wouldn't answer for your lives.
Take my revolver," he added, "and
be off."
Seth thanked him, adding gloomi
ly, "If we fail, we'll never come
back alive. For us to be hocused
with 'Bourbon' is disgrace enough."
A whistle ! The foreman opened
the po iuts and the engine sped away
on the down line in full pursuit of
the desperadoes, to save the specie
train, if possible.
"We've no head-lamp ?" exclaim
ed Tom, suddenly.
"So much the better ; we don't
wan't to advertise ourselves to-night.
There is a Hash of something ; guess
we'll have a storm."
The remark was not called for.
The gleam of lightning every now
and then appeared to rest upon the
steel handles and glint along the
rails. There was a moaning sound
in the air, a feeling of oppression,
while occasionally a heavy plash of
rain would drop upon the roof of the
"cab" in which the men journeyed.
They absolutely Hew along the
track. Over the apparently bouud
less prairie the line was laid. "Not a
station for miles. A few watering
places at intervals alone broke the
level character of the prospect when
the fitful lightning lit up the sur
roundings. Pitch dark overhead
except when the flashes came ; and
the only light below the rapidly
moving glare of the furnace fire on
the "road."
"It's past 11," said the driver.
44 We ought to have pulled them
up. We've run this thirty miles in
the half-hour. There's Buffalo
Creek, he added, as they skiuimed
past.
44 Well, then, Dart ford is only
another thirty, and the trestle sid
ing on the top of the cutting is only
twenty-five."
44 We must pass them at the curve,
below. Ilalloo 1 look out, mind
that hand-lamp."
Tom turned the slide and looked
ahead. Seth shut off the steam.
"There they are ! lucky we are
running tender foremost, or they
would have seen our fire. We'll
wait on them gently till they get on
to the trestle curve. Then we'll
4 wire In' and drop them. Steady,
mate !"
Then engine came silently to a
stand-still. The gentle hiss of the
steam, which AVHS just raising the
valves, was the only audible sound.
Broad flashes of sheet lightning lit
up the heavy masses of c loud, but no
thunder followed. Seth looked to
his revolver.
Tom fed the fire and they waited ;
it wus their only chance—a surprise.
For quite twenty minutes the
men waited ; the engine in front
bad long ago disappeared. At hist
Seth salt. "Now, Tom, is our time !
I*ll run them a race to Dartford
Citv, and if I get there first there'll
be scalps to sell to morrow. We'll
round that cuive before they see us,
and come in all flying. Are you
ready V"
Tom signified his consent, and
away darted the ponderous engine
across tlie boundless prairie at top
speed. Un! on! never mind the
r mgh track ; it's death if you leave
it ; it's death most likely, if you re
main. There is one chance, and on
ly one—if you reach Dartford City
and give the alarm.
"l'resson, Seth, it's nigh mid
night.'' So whispered Tom, as the
engine swung round t he sharp curve.
There, seemingly motionless, was
the other engine. Faster and faster
rattled the pursuer. Tney were
seeu at last. The men were visible
through the glass for an instant.
"Lie down !" roared Seth.
Only just in time. Two bullets
came crashing overhead ; another
hit the handle of the steam whistle
and sent out a scraem of defiance in
to the night. Seth rose slowly, and,
pistol in hand, watched the foe,
"He's going to race us, but he
don't know the trick of firin' 'No.
2'K),' Tom. We'll pass him, and
then—"
Seth's face, as he spoke, and
clutched his revolver, was sufficient
to explain his meaning without
words.
On, on, speeding across the prairie !
Now, Seth was gaining, now tne
other shot ahead. "More wood into
the furnace ; pile it in, Tom," cried
Seth—" that's it—now."
A bullet from Seth's steady hand
passed through the glass of the oth
er engine, and shattered the driving
arm of the man who held the regu
lator.
"Bully I" exclaimed the delight
ed Seth. "Now for another log.
The fire was blown un, and like an
anow the engines flew along ; but
no more shots were exchanged, for
as they were running neck and neck
for one instant Seth perceived a
light on the line ahead, and before
his companion was aware of his in
tention shut off the steam. The
other engine lied away into the dark
ness, leaving Seth and Tom far be
hind.
"What did you shut off for?"
cried Tom in amazement.
"Look ahead and you'll know,"
was the gntn reply.
Tom looked ahead. A weird light
was playing on the track, a halo of
unearthly appearance. It shimmer
ed and moved like a will-o'-the-wisp.
It was a ghastly white mist—a
ghostly warning.
"What can it be ? said Tom, his
superstitious terrors being now ex
cited. "What is 5 t !*'
"It's a light, that's all," said
Seth with a fiendish griu. "I know
it though ; I've seen it before.
There's somebody underneath the
rails in the bridge, aud, you bet
they're cutting ;the track for the
specie train!"
"Gracious heaven, and that en
gine I"
44 Tha* engine will l>e in the river
in two minutes," said Seth Martin.
44 0h ! hurry up and save them if
wo can," euelaimedTom. Go ahead.
"Gently, mate, gently ; lot them
get 011 a bit." He turned on steam,
but ere they had passed half the dis
tance in the direction of the light a
loud crush was heard, and amid
screams of human agony the trestle
bridge sank down —down—gently,
slowly, but surely to the stream be
low. Tlio ponderous engine dipped
forward, gave one heavy roll, right
ed agaiu, and then turning complete
ly over, fell with a thundering
noise into the canyon below.
The lights were suddenly extin
guished, and the piercing screams
of wounded and scalded men arose,
mingled with the hissing steam and
the dull roar of thunder. The
storm had burst.
"Caught iu their own trap," ex
claimed Setli. Serves them rig.it!
Poor critters, I'm kinder sorry, too."
"L,et us help them," cried Tom.
"llelp I yes ; let us run on to
Dartford, and stap the traffic ; :he
specie is duo in ten minutes."
"Cross that bridge !" exelaimed
the fireman.
"Yes, sir, across that bridge.
I'm a-goin' to try it," replied Seth.
"Will you chance it ?"
"Tos," was the brave answer;
"it's kill or cure !"
"Here goes, then ; shake hands.
God bless ye, mate ; if we don't
meet again, tell them I died at my
post like a man."
The driver and fireman clasped
hands in silence, and Seth, turning
on the full pressure of steam, it he
engine gathered itself up for a final
race.
Not n sound escaped either of the
men. Side by side they stood. As
they approached they could see a
red glare. The bridgo had caught
fire. As they shot past, a form or
two hurried quickly out of sight—
some of the desperate band no w
cowed and crushed. In a moment
more the bridge was in full view.
The crackling timbers of the up line
were all burning around the mighty
monster engine, which still emitted
smoke and flames. As a flash of
l'ghtning will in one brief second
reveal all surrounding objects dis
tinctly, so the glare of the engine
furnace lit up tue scene below. The
engine dashed along—a roar, a creak
ing noise, the flame leaped up be
neath—and the danger was over.
The down line had not beeu under
mined.
As they slackened sj>eed a long,
deep whistle was heard, and a dim
speck was seen like a piu's head on
the line in front.
"There's the specie, Tom. We've
done our duty, ltun down easy and
see if we can't help ttie unfortunate
loafer under the bridge. It was a
narrow squeak."
It was, indeed. The specie train
was saved, though, and the filibus
tering taken in the act. Three were
drowned, and two more so terrible
injured that they died soon after
from the effects. Seth and Tom
were rewarded, and the former was
subsequently made Inspector; but
he and Tom often talked of the sum
mer night when they wore so nearly
killed while running pilot.
