Tha performance was witnessed by Prof, liranley. the pioneer wireless worker, and ex -President Poincare.

Scientific American. betwixt life and death In aome hospital. Tells ef One laclacnt. I have experienced many Incidents which give me the creeps every time 1 think of them. Just the other night I wss rolling in top speed and sounded several warnings for a very open grade crossing.

From my side of the cab the road looked clear but just as we were almost on top of the crossing I saw a big automobile shoot across the track ahead of me. coming almost right out from under my pilot. My headlight was visible to that driver for more than a mile and my warning whistles could hare been heard for several miles. I plainly saw the face of the driver in the car as he breezed across Just a hair's breadth ahead of the grim reaper. Had I hit him he would have been dead instantly.

And, I suppose I might have been accused of manslaughter. Recently a man hired by a township to take children back and forth to a school In a hack, drove up on the track at Clarke Hill after I bad whistled for the cross, ng and also had whistled for the station. We were in plain sight, with nothing to obstruct the view and to my beat Judgment thia man had not mored more than ten feet from the track when I whiszed by him. A small boy In the rear of the hack put up hia hand glee fully and waved at me. Can you imagine bow my helrt was palpitating? He did not know how near death's door he had been.

Ther were thirty or more youngsters In that car. A second, and all might have been hurled into eternity. What a slaughter of Innocents! The cold chills creep over me erery time I think ot this. And everr few dara I you read In the papera where some other hack driver geta up on the crossing jus i in time io be atruck squarely by a fast train. A few weeks ago two antomoblU and a truck were all headed for tha I same crossing I was racing for.

The i rue a- waa in the lead and got -across by the closest margin, and th paa-aeager car were right on Ita heela. Only by eoundlng a aeries of short blasts did 1 cause, these cars to check before I waa on the crossing. The front car escaped by quickly backing up off of the light of wsy. Near Raub. at the first road crossing east of the depot large touring car tried to beat me to the crossing and failed.

He twisted hia car lato a big ditch and ran Into deep water, getting an awful baptism which waa better than the fire and brimstone he might have encountered but for the fortunate twlat of his steering wheel. I amaglne he learned his lesson right there-There are acores of similar Incidents I might relate. They o-ceur almoat daily and. remember. am only on locomotive engineer out of tena of thoueende who are experiencing the aame shocka and thrill a.

don't crave this excitement, boiler me.
