P. ENGINE Off THE TRACK Engine Stopped Jut in Time to Avert a Serlois Wreck. No. 910, one of the local switch gines, got off the track Sunday noon in the yards west of the round bouse and it was 4 a. m.

Monday morning before the engine was again on the track.

The engine started to go straight on over the bank but stopped just about in time for had it gone about afoot further it would have been turned upside down in a deep ditch. It was a narrow escape for eer Wantland and Fireman McGiliivray who pluckily stayed on the gine.

Boston builds down as well as up. The subway and elevated roads prevent crowding as was the case when we last visited the city. Tonight we start on our western trip back to sunny, breezy Dakota.The winter here as in Maine has been very mild, heavy rains taking the place of heavy snows.
