he grade uti the other side of Onkrldge
without ii hand on the engine's throttle
or anvone to look ahead for danger.
The grade from Two Bridges down the
rnountaln for twenty miles is very steep,
nnd engineers frequently apply tho air
brakes to keep their trains under control.
While taking this precaution at a sharp
curve west of Oakrldge Polllson became
convinced that tho brake on the tender of
Jiis engine was out of order. He jumped
to the floor of the tank, and while lean
ing far out to pier at the brakes ho was
utruck by the upright post of an auto
matic time signal. The blow knocked
turn from his engine and threw him away
from the wheels down the bank, twenty-
live feet high.
Fireman Michael Collins, ignorant of
the accident, continued at his duties. The
train in the meantime was dashing down
the grade at an unusual rate of speed.
Kvcryoue of the passengers were in peril
without knowing it. When nearingUaK
ridge one of the train's crew called the at
tention of Kiremau Collins to the fact
that l'olllson was not In his sent in the
cab. The tlreman looked around hur
riedly, and then, realizing that there must
have been an accident, quickly stopped
tho train. The engineer was found lying
beside the track in a dazed condition. The
doctors say his injuries are not fatal, but
It will be some time before ho will bo libit
to resume work.
