Then he took a book, lighted bis p|g£ and sat down to watt for daylight. In the morning the chief appeared, with anxiety written all over his face.

‘Any accidents, Johnny?” asked the chief.

Not an accident. I’ve got ’em f ILon the SldetViCl, snowed in and waiting for orders, and you will have to get ’em out. I am going to blow this Jotji.” It took the chief and his force nearly all day to get the trains straightened out and traffic resumed on the road.

The thor­oughbred la rattle brained, has no sense, is beyond all control.
