Tom Totta, well-known locomotire
engineer in England and the State, i
tlie aelf-accreilited hero of the follow
Ina wonderful itory :
Well, gentlemen, I nay you'll think
it' lie, but I can't help that; you
liavo anked me to tell it; and all I
can my ia, if you'd been in my place
you'd hare scon it.
I had been diiting the "Witch" fur
about seven nioutha, and naweet thing
he wa. I never was half as fond of
an engine as I was for her. She was
the kind of machine a man only gets
once in a lifetime. -
She made her steam qujck, waseary
on fuel, started on" lively, and wcut
like a deer. Her cylinders were
teen-iuch, her btroke twenty-two, and
her drivers seven feet tx, and she was
as kind to handle as a baby.
To tee her runiCdTwiib a heavy
load, light and gay, was enough to
shame tba "Juno," "Venus" and
"Helen,''anJ other eiglilceu-inck ma
chines. 8he Dever wanted fixing on. Ve
nus' was always goiug hi and out ot
the shop to be titivated, and if there's
anything I don't like, it's an engine
that all the time wants to be titivated.
She was always ready and willing for
work. Why, bless you I she was only
washed out foi the sake of cleanliness
she didn't need it a bit.
She was the tidiest thing I ever seen
seemed a? though dirt wouldn't
stick to her.
Well, wlmt I am going to tell came
otr years ago, beforo 1 Iff; the old
country, and it is one of the best rail
roadssingle track then, though it's
got three now, and four in some spots.
Well, the "Witch" and I were put
n the mail one of the fastest trains :
and they went like sixty in them days.
The euginper was fined a shilling for
every minute he lost. lie durst not
go slow for fug, unless he wanted to
lose ins day s pay. lie had to keen
going right along, and see things be-
ore lie got in signi 01. ein.
We were running north one darkish
wintry dflr. and were luakiuc our best
streaks. 1 reckon we were troiuc about
i i , m
hut mues ah nour. .
I was saying to myself, "site's going
her prettiest." when "we suddenly shot
ahead, as if we had been fired out of a
cannon.
I knew what that meant we had
brokeu loose; we hudu'l a car behind.
Tho coupling had broke between the
tender aud the first couch.
How we flew, to be sure! I whhtled
the guaid to brake up tbe train. How
we buuuded along !
I could make out no oblecls along
side we seemed to go faster and fast
er; we must have got ot fit a one
hundred and forty tnilet on hour.
n was a straight piece ot track for
some miles. 1 did not shut off steam,
directly we broke, for I didn't want
the train to run into us. which miiiht
happen if they did not hear uie whistle
for brakes. ,
It was lucky I kept her - going, for
just as I had about enough ot such
flyinp, a inau started out about six
hundred yards before us holding a red
nog.
There was nothing in the way, so I
knew that something must be wrouu
with the track. -
lou might as well have tried to
stop whirlwind as (ho "Witch" in
that distance. Her speed was fright
ful.
There wasn't much time to think,
and as we could not stop, the faster
we went the better; so I gave her
what more steam there was. She seem
ed to have some "go m reserve, for
we shot past that red Hug like a itabh.
I saw men staudiug horror-struck.
"Jlill, I saiJ, "quick! get on the
coke, and see what's ahead.
He looked, and wept deadly' pale,
touerea an wu oacK in a taint.
liy this time I could see plain
euoiigh what was wrcng.
There wax a gap in tbe track where
a bridge had gone down.
You can't ffkucy my feelings just
then. Going- to death death, swift
and terrible at about two miles a
minute gettiug nearer, and nearer
An instant more the gap!
"God have mercy," I ebrieked.
V1), Hould you believe it? that en
gine junt cleared Uit gup!
It was fifteen fuet across, and about
sixty dbt i&eji.
She jumped that gup like a stag,
and what's more, she struck the rails
aU fiht on the other side, and kept
right along, just as if she had uot no
ticed the gnp!
. 1 stirred iSill up, and, with both of
us at the brake, we managed at Jast to
stop the "Witch."
fcbe was ua a tear liat day, but I
ever dreamed she'd jump the gap
that's a fuel. From Taylor' $ Fast Life

Mr. Alexander Johnson, of Towan
da, is dead. He was bilious, Mr.
Alexander Johnson was and he saw
the following paragraph from the' pen
of Dr. Hall :
"If a bilious man wants to get well,
an I is in no specinl hurry, all that he
has to do is to lie down out-of-doors
between two broad boards, and stay
there until he gets ravenously hungry,
Mr. Johnson followed this advic9,
and calmly fell asleep with a broad
ooard on top or him. Under ordinary
circumstances there would have been
no trouble; but there was a Fut Man's
Ball in tbe lager ifceer saloon next door
that day, and the two champion fit
men trot over the fence, and sat down
with a jerk on ton of Mr. Alexander
Johnson s upper board without know
tug he was there. It squelched the
breath out of him at the first blow
And the tat men, they sat and sat
there, and discussed politics, and the
Alabama claims, and the weather, and
women's rights, and the glacial theory,
nnd metaphysics; and they kept ou
drinking glass after glass of beer, and
getting heavier nnd heaver, until one
of them happened to look under the
board, and there was Alexander John
son, as dead as Nebuchadnczzor, nnd
mushed out so thin that you could
puss him in under a closed door with
out scraping hi vest-buttons. He does
not sufTor from bile now.but Mrs. John

yards of gathers out of her dress and

and occupying communicating rooms.
Uue day Brown fixed a string to the
covers on Joues bed aud ran the cord
through the door iuto his own room.
His purpose was to jerk the covers off
as soon as Jones got comfortably fixed

Brigadier-General Muffin came down,

Mr. Samuel A. Echols, of Georgia,
who ha spent some time in Nebraska,
fin which State the Burlington and
Missouri River Railroad Company has
considerable land for sale,) and who
proposes to 1 oca to in the State, des
cribes farming and farm prospects in
Nebraska, in a letter printed in the
Atlanta (Ga.) Herald. His observa
tion ore worth readiug. Mr. Echols
says: V .
The most level and highly cultivated
garden in our State (Georgia,) is in no
better condition for cultivation than
millions of acres in Nebraska, after
the first, or sod plowing. The eoil is
of a rich alluvial character, dark col
ored, easily worked, of greet ttapth
unu oi iiicxuausiioie tenuity. There
is no need or commercial fertilizers to
stimulate it to productiveness, nor
doses of costly chemicals to supply
"jdant food" for corn, wheat or grasses.
The cost of cultivating is light. The
plowing of com is usually done with
two-horse sulky cultivators, with which
one man and team can plow from six
to eight acres pel tiny. One haud can,
and does, oullivato from fifty to sixty
acrts in corn which will yield ou al
most any laud here, frum thirty to fif
ty bushels per acre. Instances are
numerous where tiighty bushels per
acre are made. Corn and small grain
are, as a rule, seeded, and the latter
harvested, by . machinery. Wheu n
farmer is unable to buy acorn planter,
grain drill, cultivator or reaper, he
will, perhaps, find one or more new
settlers in the same fix, and the two
or more clubbing together purchase
the machiue, and all have the use of
it until each is able to buy for him
self. .
A vory little while is required for
any farmer to bo inilenundeut who will
only attend to his business. He raises
at ho.ne his corn, oats, wheat, barley,
rye, hay, cattle, hogs, turkeys, chick
ens, butter, eggs, fruit and vegetables.
His expenses ure light. It costs com
paratively little to feed his live stock,
us they can graze upon the farm the
greater part of the year, aud tho ! la
bor is the only cost of saving, in Sum
mer, an ample supply of as fine hav
ns grows anywhere, for Winter feeding.
I visited a farm on which the owuerot
it, with a ysung sou and one hired
man, cultivated last venr. one bun-
dred and twenty acres in corn and
one hundred in wheat, besides taking
care of one hundred head of cattle.
The. surplus of the corn and' wheat
crop was marketed, and petted tlio
farmer more than ?3,000. :..
It is pleasant to go among the farm
ers and note thier conteutmeut and
tbriftiness. There are men comforta
bly situated upon farms of their own,
and out of debt, who three -or four
years since-came to the State with ab
solutely no means whatever, Such
men had to "rough it" for tho first
year or two ; but there are hundreds
of just such instances, and will be
many more. Still I would not udvise
any one to come to Nebraska to farm
with than less $500. This is sum
cient to give any industrious man
bold upon eighty or one hundred and
sixty acres of land, room to live in
and gome sort of a team to work with
Hut a man coming to Nebraska with

a lot of garden trash for to go fo eed
and waste, why then I suppo-e it's all
right if I could only see it, but when
a boy has studied diligent all winter I
don't think it's exae'ly the fair thing
to keep him too tenacious at work in
vacation. Anyhow, that's my opinion,
which I throw in. There ain't a very
great deal of real pleasure in hugging
Potatoes where the bugs is about a
barrel full to the acre, and when a boy
has to bend his back down to pull uii
weeds whijh grow clean through and
cltnrh on the other side, it's a kiud of
a niisrr&ble occupation which I would
like to get half a good chance to slip
out of. To have to wade into the
garden early when the dew is on in
your bare feet, and get- smart weed
up your trousers leg, is a worse thing
than the Erie &iphilis, and the fever
and ague; but when you have to do
it there is no use for to try to shirk
out. I went back on the job once,
but I never want back on it twice,
because once was enough. I was roped
in and coaxed by some bnys to gii oft"
on tho commons to play ball for a
whole day. Late in the evening, when
I came in home the back way, and
desperate hungry, the governor gave
me nn abundance of stars and stripes,
which I have got them yet, and could
show 'em if I was only in a swimming.
I found out that it is a bad habit for
a boy (a get into, to shake his work
without permission, and it's the best
way always to obey orders if it almost
breaks your back. But I have got
awfuj sick; of this vacation busincw,
and if I can find a school next year
which will keep in the year round, it's
the on that I want to go to, That'll
what kind of a hairpin I ani.
