PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

ON THE OTHER SIDE.

We (0 oux ways in life too much done We hold oiuaelTSs too tar from ell our kind Too often ire ere deed to sigh and moen

Too often to the weak ana helpleas blind To often, where dlstreaa and waut abide, We turn end pees upon the other aide. The other aide Is trodden smooth and worn

By footsteps passing idly all the day. When? lie the braised one« that faint and mourn, seldom more than an untrodden way: Our seliUh hearts are for our feet the guide

Thej" lead as by upon the other side. It Should be oun the oil and wine to pour Into the bleeding wounds of stricken ones To take the smitten, and the sick and sore,

And bear them where a stream of blessing Instead,'"wlfiook about—the way is wide, And so we pan upon the other side. Oh, friends and brothers, gliding down the yean.

Humanity Is calling each and all In tender accents born of grief and tears! I pray you, listen to the thrilling call You cannot, lnyour cold and selfish pride,

Pass guiltlessly by on the other side.

'The Express Train.

Two or three of as bad lounged out of tbe club one night, into datlev's office, to find out tbe news coming in by cable, whicb tbe steeping towjj would not bear until tbe paper would be out to-morrow. Santley was editor of tbe Courier. He was scribbling away at driving speed, bis bat on, an unligLted cigar in bis moutb. 'You're at it late, BenT' 'Accident on a western road. Sixty 1 slost,' wHhout looking up.

We seized tbe long wbite slips wbicb lay coiled over the table, and read the dispatch. •Tut, tut!' •Infamous!' 'Nobody to blame, of course!' 'I tell you the officers of a road where suob an accident is possible should be tried for murder!' cried Ferrers.

Santley sboved bis copy to tbe boy, and lighted bis cigar. •I think you're wrong, Ferrers. Instead of being startled at such casual!ties, I n?ver travel on a railroad that I am not amazed at the security of tbem. Just think of it. Thousands of trains running yearly on each, witii but a minute to spare between safety and destruction, the safety of those depending upon conductors, telegraph clerks, brakesmen, men of every grade oi intellect, their brains subject t: every kind of moods and disease .and tempers. Tbe engineer takes a gla*s of liquor tbe conductor sets bis watch half a mluute too fait the flagman fails asleep, and the(rain la dashed to ruin! It is not tbe accident that is to be wondered at it is escape that is miraculous!'

We all had dropped into seats by this time. The nltcht was young, aud one after another told some story of adventure or danger. Presently 3antley said, 'There was an accident which oocurod on tbe PnilndHphia and Erie road a tew years ago, wl.i made me fuel as I In tbe matter. I Imppened to be an eye witness to the wtn-le Ktf.tir.' 'What was it, BtMif' 'It's rather a lmix story—' 'No matter. Go on. |You can't go borne until your proof comes in, anyhow.' •No. Well, to make you understand, about five years ago I had a bid break-down-night work, back writing and poor pay. You know bow fa*t it all wears out tUe machine. Tiie doctor talked «l dlse ises of the gray matter of the bruin, etc., and prescribed, instead of inedtulne, absolute rest and change of scene. I would U*ve swallowed all the nostnitm In a tlrun shop rather than have l"lt the otfk*e for a week. 'I'll take country board and send in my editorials,' I said. 'No you must drop office and work utterly out of your lite lor a month at least. Talk and think of planting potatoes, or embroidery—anything but newspapers aud politics.' •Well, I obeyed. I started on a pedestrian tour through Pennsylvania, studied oil stock in Allegany county, and ate sauerkraut in Berks. Finally I brought up—footsore and bored beyond bearing—in Wllllamspnrt. While there, I fell into the habit or lounging about the rail way station, studying toe construction of the engines, and making friends with tbe men. The man with whom I always fraternise most readily is tbe skilled mechanic. He has a certain degree of oommon aense—a store of oertaln facts which your young doctor or politician Is apt to lack. Besides, he is absolutely sure of his social standing ground, and has a grave self respect which teaches him to rebpect you. The

Girofessional

lad just started on hisoareer

uneasy not sure of his position be tries to climb perpetually. I tell you this to explain my intimacy with many of the officials on the road, especially with an engineer named Blakely. 'This tnan attracted me first by his ability to give me the information I wanted In a few direct, sharp words. Like most reticent men, he knew the weight and value of words. I soon beoaine personally much Interested in him. fie was about forty, his hair streaked with grav, with grave, woro face, which hiuteu of a youth of hardships and tntioh suite rf»K. owever, Blakely had foun his way to the uplands at Ust. Three years before be bad married brlght.cheerful woman. They bad one child—a boy. He bad work and good wages, and was, I found, high in tbe confidence of tbe company. On one occasion* having a Sunday off, he took me up to Jersey Shore, where his wife and boy lived. He was an exceptionally silent man, but when with tbem was garrulous and light hearted as a boy. In his eye* Jane was the wisest and fairest of women, and tbe boy a wonder of intellect. One great source of trouble to blm was, as I found, that h*\ was able to see them but once in three weeks. It was necessary for tbe child's health to keep them In the country sir, and, indeed, ne could not afford to have tbem elsewhere but this st para ted blm from thetu almost wholly. J*no wss in the habit of oouilug with Charley down to a certain point of tbe road every day, that Blakely might see them as be dash ed by. 'And when I found out this habit, it occurted to me that I could sire Blakely a great pleasure. How often have I cursed my meddling hid news since. January 26th was tbe child's birthday. I proposed to Mrs. Blakely that she ana Charley should board tbe train which her husband drove, unknown to him, and run up to Harrisburg, where be had the night off There was to be a little supper at tbe Lochil House. Charley was to appear in a new suit, etc. Of course the hole affair was at my ex pen«e—a mere triflle, but an affair of grandeur aud distinction which fairly took Jane's breath. She waa a most innocent, happy creature one of those women wbo are "wives and mothers in the cradle. When Blakely found her

she was a thin, pale little talloress—a machine to grind out badly mads shoddy clothes. Bat three years of marriage and petting of Charley bad made her rosy and pomp and preSty. •The little highland salt was bought oomplete, to the tiny dirk and feather, and very pretty tbe little fellow looked In it. I wrote down to order a stunning supper to be ready at eight. Jane ana tbe boy were to go aboard tbe train at Jersey Shore, a queer little hill village near which they lived. Blakely ran tbe train from Williamsport down to Harrisburg that day. His wife being in tbe passenger ear before he took charge or tbe engine, of oourse he would see and know nothing of her nntil we landed at Harrisburg st seven, I bad intended to go down in the smoking car as usual, but another fency, suggested I suppose by tbe originator or all evil, seized me. No need to laagh. Satan, 1 believe, has quite as much to do with accidents and misery and death as with sin.. Why not? However my fancy, diabolic or not, was to go down on the engine with Blakely. I hunted up tbe fireman, and talked to him for au hour. Then I went to the engineer. 'Blakely,' I said, 'Jones, tbe fireman, wants to-night off.' 'Off! O, no doubt. He's taking to drink. He most bave been drinking when he talked of that. It's impossible.' 'I explained to Blakely that Jones had a sick wife,or a sweetheart or some thing, and finally owned that I had an unconquerable desire to run down the road on tbe engine, and that knowing my only chance was to take 'the fireman's place, had bribed bim tcf give it to me. The fact was that in my idleness and tbe over-worked state of my brain I craved exoitement as a Confirmed drunkard does liquor. 'Blakely, I saw, was angry and exceedingly annoyed. He refused at first, but finally gave way with a great civili ty, whicb almost made me ashamed of my boyish wbim. I promised to be the prince of firemen. 'Then you'll have to ire treated as one, Mr. Santley,' said Blakely, curtly.

I can't talk to gentlemen aboard my expross. It's different here on the plat form, you'll remember. I've got to order and you to oboy, and that's all there is of it.' 'O, I understand,' I said, thinking that it required little moral effort to obey, in the matter or shoveling coal. If I could have guessed what that shoveling coal was to ost me! But all day I went about thinking of the fiery ride through tbe hiils, mounted literally on an iron horse.

It was in the middle of the afternoon when the train rushed into the station. I caught a glimpse of Jane on the passenger car. with Charley, magnificent in bis red ana green plaid, beside her. She nodded a dozan Limes and laughed, and hid behind the window, fearing her busbaud should see her. Poor girl! It was the second great holiday of ber life, she bad told me, the first being ber wedding day. 'The train stopped ten minutes. It was neither an express nor an accom modation train, but one which stopped at tbe principal stations on the route— Selinsgrove, Sunbury, etc. had an old patched suit on, fit, I suppo-e, for the service of coal beaver but Blakely, when I come up, eyed it and my bands sardonically. He was in no better temper, evidently, with amateur firemen than be bad been, in the morning. 'All aboard!' he said gruffly. 'You take your place there Mr. Santley. You'll put in coal just as I call fr it, if you please, and Dot trust to your own judgment.' 'His tone annoyed me. 'It cannot require much judgment to keep a fire uodera boiling pot, and not to make it too hot. Any woman can do that in her own kitchen.' 'He made no reply, but took his place In the little square box where tbe greater part of bis life was passed. I noticed that his face was flushed, and bis irritation at my foolish whim was surely more than tbe occasion required. I watched him with keen curlohity, wondering if it were possible that be could have been drinking, as he had accused poor Jones of doing.' 'It strikes me as odd,' interrupted Ferrers, 'that you should have not only made an intimate companion of this fellow, Santley, but bave taken so keen an Interest in bis tempers and drinkingbouts. You would not be Jlkely to honor any oi us with such attention.' 'No, I bave something else to do. I was absolutely idle then. Blakely and his family for the time made up my world. As for tbe friendship, thiB was an exceptional man, both as to Integrity and massive hard sense. The knowledge that ootnes from books counts with me but little comparod with tbe education given by experience and oontact with facts for forty years. I was honored wltb the friendship of this grimy engineer. But tbe question of bis sobriety that day was a serious one. A man in charge of a train with hundreds of son Is aboard, I felt ought to be sober, particularly when I waa shut up in the engine with blm. 'Just as we started a slip of paper waa handel to bim,wbicb he read and threw down. •Do you run tbis train by telegraph?' I atked, beginning to shovel vigorously. 'Yea No more coal.' 'Isu't that anuaual?' 'Yes. There are two special tralbs on the road this afternoon. 'Isn't it difficult to run a train by telegraph?' I said presently, simply to niakA uotiTi'n!i:t()n. Staring In silunce at the narrow silt in the gloomy furnace or out at tbe village street, through which we slowly passed, was monotonous. 'No, not difficult. I simply have to obey the instructions which I receive at each station.' 'But if you sh'-u'd happen to think tbe instructions were i:"« right?' 'Happen to tbijnk I've no business to think at all! When tbe trains run by telegraph the engineers are so many machines lu tbe bands of one controller, who directs them all from a central point. He has the whole road under his eye. It they don't obey to the least tittle their orders, it is destruction to tbe whole.'

Yon seem to think silent obedience the first and last mcr^ in ^gdlroad. mtn.' ..,xB "Yes,'dryly. 'I took tbe hint and was dumb. V./' 'We were out oftcwn now. Blakely

Qid

uickened the speed of the engine. I cot speak to him. There was little for me to do, and was occupied in looking out at the flying landscape. The fields were covered with a deep fell of snow, and glanced whitely by with a strange, unr**l shimmer. The air was keen and cutting. Still tbe ride waa tame. I was disappointed. Tbe excitement would by no means equal a dash on a spirited horse. '1 began to think I had little to pay tor inv grimy hands and face, when we slowed at tbe next station. One or two pasengers boarded the train. There was the inevitable old lady with bandies, alighting, and the usual squabble about her trunk. I was craning my neck to her, when the boy ran along aide with tbe telegram.

'The next moment I heard a smothered exolamation from Blakely. "Go back.'aaid he to the boy. *Tell Sands to have tbe mesaage repeated. Thore*a some mistake.' 'The boy daahed off, and Blakely aat waiting, coolly pollablng a bit of the shining brass before bim. -'Back came the boy. 'I 'Had It repeated. Sands la raging at yon. Says there "a no mistake,and you'd better get on,' thrusting the second mwffo a p. 'Blakely read it, and stood hesitating for half a minute. I never shall forget the dismay, the utter perplexity that gathered in bia lean faoe as be looked at the telegram, and at the long train behind him. His lips moved as if be were calculating chances, and his eye sadden* ly quailed" as if he saw death at tbe end of tbe calculation. "What's tbe matter? What are you going to do?' I asked. 'Obey.' 'Tbe engine gave «long shriek of horror, that made me start as if it wore Blakely's own votoe. The next instant we rushed out of the station, and dashed through tbe low-lying farms at a speed wbicb seemed dangerous to me. 'Put in more coal,' said Blakely.

East

h"Coal.' V* 'I was alarmed at the stern coal rigidity of the man. His pallor was becoming frightful. 'I threw in the coal. 'At least we must stop in Sunbury. He bad told me that was the next balt^ 'Tbe little town approached. As the first bouse came in view, the engine seut out its shriek of warning it gjrew louder, louder. We dashed into the street, up to the station where a group of passengers waited, and past it without tbe bait of an instant. I canght a glimpse of tbe appalled faces of the wait ing crowd. Tben we were in the fields again. 'The speed now became literally breathless tbe furnace glared red-hot. The heat, the velocity, the terrible nervous strain of tbe man beside-me, seemed to weigh the air. I found myself drawing long stertorous breaths, like one drowning. I heaped in the coal at intervals, as be bude me.'

I'd have done nothing of the kind,' interrupted one of the_ listeners. 'The man was mad.' 'I did so because I was Oppressed by an odd »ense of duty, which I never baa in ray ordinary brain work. I bad taken this mechanical task on myself, and I felt a stricture upon me to go through with It at my cost. I know now bow it is that dull, ignorant men, without a spark of enthusirsm, show such heroism sometimes, as soldiers, engineers and captains of wrecked vessels. It is this overpowering sense of routine duty. It Is a finer thing than sheer bravery, to my notiou. However. I began to be of your mind, Wright, that Blpkely wa4 .mad,laboring under some sudden frenzy from drink, though I bad never seen him touch liquor. Vs* 'He did not move hand or foot, except in tbe mechanical control of tbe engine, bis eye going from tbe guage to tbe timepiece with a steadiness that was more terrible and threatening than auy gleam of insanity would bave been. Once be glanced back at the long train sweeping after the engine, with a neadlong Bpeed that rocked it from side to side. You would get glimpses of hundreds of men and women talking, reading, smoking, unconscious that their lives were all in hold of one man, whom I now strongly suspected of being mad. I knew by bis IOOK thst be remembered their lives were iu Ills band. He glanced at tbe clook.

Twenty miles,' he mattered. 'Throw on tbe coal, Jones. The fire is going out.' •I did it. Yee, I did It. There was something in the face of that man that I could nOt resist. Tben I clicubed forward and shook bim by tbe shoulder. 'Blakely,' I shouted, 'you are running this train into the laws of death.' 'I know it,' quietly. 31 'Your wife and child are on it.' "My God!' 'He staggered to his feet But even then he did not move bis eye from the

'Make up the fire.' he laid, and pushed In the throttle valve. 'I will not.' 'Make up tbe fire, Mr. Santley,' very quietly. 'I will not. You may murder yourself and your wife and yoar boy, bat you shall not murder me.' 'He looked at me. His kindly gray eyes glared like those of a wild beast. But be controlled himself in a moment. 'I could throw you out of this door, rod make short work of it. But—look here do you see tbe station yonder?' 'I saw a thin wisp of smoke against the

about five miles In advance. 'I waa told to reach that station by six o'clock. Tbe express train meeting us is due now. I ought to bave laid by for it at Sunbury. I was told to come on. The track is a single one. Unless I can make tbe siding at that atatlon in three minutes, we will meet it yonder in tbe hollow.' 'Somebody blundered?' "Yee. think so.' 'And you obeyed?' 'He (aid nothing. I threw on coal. If I had had petroleum, I would have thrown it on. Bat I never was calmer in my life. When death has a man actually by tbe throat it sobers bim. 'Blakely pushed in tbe valve still further. The engine began to give a strange, panting sound. Far off to the aoath I could see tbe bituminous black coal smoke of a train. •I looked at Blakely inquiringly. He nodded. It was tbe express. 'I stooped to tbe fire. 'No more,' he said. *1 looked across tbe clear Wintry sly at tbe gray smoke of the peaceful little village, and beyond, that black line coming closer, closer across the sky. Tben I turned to the watch. *In one minute more— •Gentlemen, I confess I tat down and buried my face in my bands. I don't think I tried to pray. I bad a coufused thought of a mass of mangled, dying men and women, mothers and their babies, and, vaguely, of a merciful God. Little Charley with his curia and pretty suit—

'An engineer named Fred, who was at the station, ran the train Into Harris* burg. Blakely was terribly ahaken. But we went down and bad bur little feast, after all. Charley, at least enjoyed It.' 'What was the explanation? blunder of the director, or tbe telegraph operator?' 'I don't know. Blakely made light of It afterwards, and kept the aecret.

'All I know la that Blakely'a salary was raised soon after, and be received that Christmas a very handsome 'testimonial for services rendered,' from the company.'
