"Well. 1 only got as far as Trinidad, when I found myself without a dollar in the world, and of eotire I had to top over and see if 1 could not get something to do. "I went to the San ta Fe railroad sta t:on and applied for work, but failed to get any encouragement. Tlten I went to the different trainmen ami made dil igent inquiries, but none of them knew of any job that was open. "A conductor, who was then running local ireijjht on this line, promised to me a position x brake man if I would remain in Trinidad two weeks. "His head brakemaa was going to quit then, he informed me, and I could have his place if I chose to remain there till the vacancy occurred; but two days later he was removed to another division of the road, and I was left without any prospect of employment in inn-dad.

"A few minutes later the express went by, and then the Motion that had been run back Has brought on to the main track aad wsat thaudoriag on its way to Kston. "You see the train had to be nulled wp this long grade in sections then, aad engine was kent at the aolnt to do the work. "As soon as the train haddisspoeared Hp the slope. .'. heard the bell ring, and then the other section began to more f orwartL Not until that moment, when the disagreeable sensation of being left behind took possession of me, did I have the remotest ides of attempting to steal a ride. Then it occurred to me that I mighty easily ride on the engine at the rear end of the train, ami no one be the wiser; but I hesitated to do such a thing, and should have given up the idea had not the brakeman pointed to the engine and hinted that if I didn't have backbone enough to ret aboard and ride, I ought to walk. "Thus encouraged. Iran forward and leaped aboard the moving engine. Then l erept into this tender and seated mvself where I would be bid from the observation of anyone who might pass along the train. 1 knew that the brakeman would shield me if he could, but I must not allow the conductor to discover my presence. The train was now moving faster and faster, and the clatter of wheels over a joint in the rails told me that we were passing over the switch and oa to the main track. We soon struck the long, steep grade, ami moved very slowly. There is a level space, a quarter of a mile long, perhaps, just below the last grade of two miles. We had reached this, and were starting up the last grade, when the engine stuck. "I heard the loud, rapid puffing of the locomotive as the wheels clipped on the track, and then the train grad ually came to a standstill. Then we began to move backward, and I knew we were backing on to the level specs to get a new start I -Me iram moveu pretty last down the grade, and I rightly guessed that the engineer was cut of humor. 'We had crossed the level space and reached the down grade below it, when we were brought almost to a standstill. The engine gave a loud snort, then there came a rattling of cars as it be gan to move forward again. Then I felt a violent jerk, I heard something break, and the engine on whieh I was riding stopped, while the train moved on up the track. The violent pull given by the exas perated engineer had broken the coupling, and I was being left behind. "i Knew mat ine nreak woum soon be discovered, and when the conductor should come back to investigate the accident, I would be found aad put off the train. "As soon as I realized this, I began to look hastily about me for some place in which to conceal myself. Happening to glance downward, I discovered tlie door leading into the furnace standing open, and in a moment I had concealed myself in the fire box, clos ing the door behind me. "Scarcely had I gained the shelter of that rather unusual hiding place when I felt the engine begin to slowly move down the track. For a short time I thought nothing of this, aad momentarily expected to hear the train back against it, bat as the moments went by and the sound of the train-grew fainter ami fainter. 1 eame to the eon' elusion that the breaking loose of the engine had not been discovered. 'l now resoivea to erawi xrom my place of concealment, but as I attempt ed to open the door I found that it was latched oa the outside, and! wa securely fastened in as if 1 had been locked ia the strongest prison. "The engine was now gaining speed at erery turn of the wheels, aad would soon be rushing with frightful rapidity dowa the steep incline. "With a feeling of horror I realized my awful peril, for I knew that ia de scending the ten-mile grade there was little hope that the engine would stay upon the rails. 1 shouted at the top of my voice, hoping that some of the train men had returned to the engine, but only the sound of the swiftly rolling wheels came in answer to my ealL "mere were several sharp enrves along the route, and some of these were on the very verge of deep abysses, making the peril of my descent so great that 1 was almost beside myself with terror. "Glancing downward through the grate I could see the road running like a great belt beneath ae, while faster and faster rolled the engine, sending up a cloud of duet that almost stifled "The engine now rocked violentand every moleave the track. from my prison ly from aide to side, ment I expected it to If I eould only escape there might yet be ti for me to jump and save myself. Once I took it with hold of the iron door aad shook all my might, but it remained a solid as the walls of iron about me. I now despaired of escape, and al most stupefied with the terror of my situation I sat there and waHsd for whatever might happen. "The speed wan new growing fright ful, and every instant I expected the engine to leap from the rails aad go crashing down into one of the ravines that skirted the road. Suddenly I felt the engine lurch vio lently from side to side as it rounded a curve, thee, to my joy, I saw that the furnace door had been thrown open by the shock.

"There was a sharp, hissiar sound as the iron brakes eame ia contact with the swiftly-rolling wheels, aad snarks of fire shot from each side of the tender, but there was no visible slackening of the speed of the engine, "Using an the force I eould command, I set the brakes, and then stood helplessly there in the tender while I was swiftly whirled down the moun tain road.

I knew that H would be impossible for me to stop the engine before I reached that place, but I still hoped to eheek its speed sufficiently to keep it from flying the track. "This was my only hone. I eould see long lines of cars on the side bracks and a number of engines switching about the yards near the station, and I shuddered as I thought of what would happen should the main track not bo clear when I reached the place. "Only a few seconds now and I would be at Trinidad. As one in a dream I again set the brakes a notch tighter, and then, grasping the bell cord, I rang the bell furiously. "The engine seemed to be fairly lift ed from the track as it swept round a eurve and went thundering on its way. t 9KT THK BRA KB. I east a fleeting glance at the station close ahead.

"When I regained my senses I found quite a erowd of people gathered about me, among whom was the conductor, who had returned with his train for the missing engine. When he asked me how I had come to be on the engine, I told him that I was intending to ride to Los Vegas, but dhl not men won the part the brakeman had played ia the matter. "To my surprise, he did not seem displeased at me for my attempt to steal a ride, but eomplimeated me on my nerve ia staying with the engine at the risk of my life, and putting on the brake as I did. I had saved the com paay the loss of several thousand dol lars, he explained, for which he him' self might hare been blamed. You give me more credit than 1 deserve,' I replied, and then I ex plained how I had been shut ap in the firebox till it was too late to leave the engine.

T. HONEST MONEY. a MrlM; Cewtnmt Kotweea Peaaeerstle Hfll filth I St)eH IJ4mVvJmW Two political conventions, one republican aad one democratic, met the other day ia two states the former in Massachusetts, the latter in New York and made a formal declaration of the principles of their respective parties ia regard to the currency. It is profoundly significant that these two declarations were, in almost identical language, in favor of honest money and against tvery form of depreciation. It is still more significant that the language in which the republicans of Massachusetts and the democrats of New York made their declaration wae substantially the language of the president of the United States upon the same subject The most obvious effect of this striking agreement between the two great parties to that it is sure so far as anything in politics esa be sure to take the question of the currency out of the field of political struggle in the national elections of next year. Since both republicans and democrats have resolved that every dollar issued by the government shall be as good aa every other dollar, there is nothing in the direction of further currency legislation for them to dispute about. The position of the republicans ia every state in the east where they still have any leaders of probity and com mon sense was already fixed for them. Mr. Harrison, with great courage and firmness, and with admirable precision aad completeness of a tale ment, had laid down the doctrine which they were bound by every consideration of party expediency and by honor to adopt. Anything different, and certainly anything less, would have been on the one hand aa open or covert declaration of hostility toward the administration, and on the other hand would have riven the party ia two. The deliberate and grave words of Mr. Harrison at Albany were the official leader of the republican party to the mischievous and senseless utterances of the renubI'ean conventions in Ohio ami Pennsyl vania. Until they were spoken no one eould say what would be the course of the party on this question. Men were touna saying mat the next congress would pass a free-eolnage bill and President Harrison would sign it. But when Mr. Harrison had once declared with all the weight of his authority in the party and in the government that "every dollar issued by the government, whether paper or coin, should be as good ss every other dollar," the policy of his party was irrevocably settied. Very different was the situation of the democrats of New York. The great body of the representatives of that party ia the last congress, and most of its senators, had voted for a free coinage hill. The democratic convention of Ohio and that of Kentucky had declared ia favor of free coinage. These sets were sound evidence of a strong sentiment in the party. Against them were to be set the firm and simple declaration of the late democratic president, Mr. Ckvelaad, and the known sentiment of the business men of the state of New York. It to not surprising that s policy of evssion and compromise should have suggested itself or that it should have found aa advocate ia such a leader at Gov. HUL I tie to the credit of the sagacity of the leaders of the Xew York democracy that in a situation of this sort they saw at once the duty aad the advantage of a policy absolutely beyond misunderstanding. Referring to the past, they say: "We now, as then, steadfastly adhere to principles of sound finance. We are against the coinage of any dol lar which to not ef the intrinsic value of every other dollar of the United states. And. as if taev were resolved that there should be no chance for any sash trickery as that of me Fifty-first coagress, they procevd to denounce the Sherman silrer law. under which one-tenth of our gold stock has been exported and all our silver output to dammed up at home." It to impossible to exaggerate the ef fect of this declaration. It baa lakes the free coinage issue, not onlv from the campaign ia this state this year. bat practically from the preskiential campaign of next year. It leaves the field clear for an honest fight en the question of tariff reform and raasoves the most serious obstacle to the tri umph of that reform. And, above all, H gives assoranee to the business men and the workiagmea of the conn try that the harvest of prosperity now appwiently awaiting them shall not be blighted bar fissueial foUy.-M. Y.

In short, the story to that Mr. Harrison mesas tooatflage J mgo Jim aad beat the great sensation al republican statesman at bis game of sensationalism. It m an interesting story as it but it k hardly to be accepted without some grains of salt Mr. Harrison to not generally supposed to be the kind, of maa to phvr such riskv neUttoal games or to try conclusions with such an adept as the Maine statesman to the practice of the art sensational. Besidea, the assumption upon which the whose story rests to that ia going mto the small business ef reciprocity with the poorest customers Mr. Blaine has abandoned protection as an issue. He has done nothing of the kind, as he has said himself. He has only proposed to enlarge the territory in which the American tariff beneficiary eaa eolleot his toll. That to aU. No doubt many of the MeKioley politicians weald be glad to get Mr. Blaine out of the way. and still more glad to amuse the people with some bogus sensational issue next year, aad prevent them if possible from having a chance to express their opinion squarely on the MeKinley system of spoliation. These worthies would be glad enough to make the president a party to this little game, aad they are no doubt playing on his ambition to that end. But if Mr. Harrison has the boldness and recklessness to play the hand he has been greatly mtojudged by his countrymen. Chicago Herald. TIMES HAVE CHANGED.
