ECOND-STORY ROOM WITHB ATH GENTS only; $2 per week. 1215 MONTEREY St. A FIREMAN'S EXPERIENCE His Engineer Went Mad in tbe Cab, and There Was a Struggle for Life. From the Washington Star. "Speaking of experiences, remarked an old engineer taa Star reporter, "have I your permission to narrate a little one that happened to me during my first year on an engine?" "Not only my permission responded the generous reporter, "but my Imperative command and an Invitation to take something while you are about It" The preliminaries being satisfactorily arranged, the engineer proceeded with his story.

"It was twenty-flve years ago," he said, "and I was a fireman on a road in New York State, The engineer I fired for was, or rather had been, one of the best on tho road, but he had been turned over and steamed under a locomotive boiler in a wreck and after that he was given a less important train. Not so much because he was any the less good aa an engineer, but because officials have an idea that It takes a man's nerve away when a serious accident happens to him. We had a ran of about seventy-five miles each way, and on. Sundays in Bummer we carried excursions. "We had never had any trouble, but for a month before the experience I am telling my engineer had been In a bad temper and.

acted as ugly as the mischief. I reported the matter to the division superlntenlent and he told me to Btlck It out for a month or so longer, as they proposed to relieve the old man and put him at work in the shops. Two Sundays after that we were returning In the evening about 9 o'clock, behind time, owing to delays occasioned by washouts causing us to run slow and cautious. We had twenty miles to go, and It was over the worst part of the road, and I was watching out of the cab, when all at once the engineer gave a shout and made a grab at me. His eyes were blazing, and I could see in a second that he was either drunk or crazy.

"How I got away from him I don't know, for he did his best to throw me off the cab, but I got away and climbed up on the wood piled up on the tender. He didn't follow, but turned at once to the throttle and threw it wide open. I knew what thnt meant with six coaches full of people behind ns and a bad track, and the first thing I did was to try to knock him out with a stick of wood. I missed my throw and he came after me with a heavy Iron bar, and I went over the rear of the tender on to the platform of the car next to us. By this time we were fairly Jumping ovpr the track, and I was so rattled that I didn't know what to do.

"In a second, though, I gathered myself and uncoupled the train from the locomotive, which was not so hard to do, aa we were on a down grade and the engine was bouncing so that the coupling pin swung loose at intervals. Then I slsnnpd on th brake there and went through the train as rase as i couia, temng orakemen ana conductor to slow up, and do It quick. Our part of the train being, stopped, we got out to see where the engine had gone, hut we could see nothing. Putting a man with a light on the track a mile behind us to stop the next train, the conductor and I went ahead to find what had become of the runaway. "Two miles awav.

or two minutes at the rate he was going, we found the engine in the ditch and the engineer buried under tr. The engine had struck a soft place and spread the rails anybody knows what that means and think what the result would have been to a train-load of passengers going after that engine at sixty miles nn hour! It almost made my balr gray to think about It, and when the people on the train heard the story they male up a purse for mo that almost made 'it curl, and I concluded that it was an ill wind Indeed which blew no good." Weyler as a "Warrior. Prom the Saginaw Courier-Hera Id. Captain Weyler is a great man. When he was first appointed to office he determined to suppress the revolution by sending out false dispatches and claiming glorious victories.

He proposed to kill off all the rebels by proclamation. But when the war correspondents refused to accept his manifestos as truth and did a little investigating which showed that all the people Weyler killed were innocent non-combatants who had no means of defending themselves, Weyler promptly transported the correspondents so as to have the news field all to himself. The New York Conspiracy. Krora tbe Boston Herald. The New York Tribune calls attention to the fact that the honest opposition to Piatt's scheme for the union of Brooklyn and New York comes from those Republicans who had refused to be the agents of Piatt.

It might have included some honest Democrats in it also, but this Is not the Tribune's way. It states what is true when It says that measure was carried by Tammany's aid, and It remarks with probably equal truth that Tammany would have given more votes to It had they been needed. Tammany and Piatt are twin cherries on one stem when machine politics are at the front. They Are Not Privileged. Prom the National American.

American citizens have no more legal rights when caught in Cuba bringing In men and munitions than a party of Spaniards landing in the United States to make war oa our government. That the American people sympathize with the Cubans, believe they are trying to overthrow their oppressors and are flghtiug for liberty plays no part In the status of these men who were captured on board the Competitor, a vessel generally admitted to have sailed for the purpose of landing men and ammunition to be used against the Spanish Government.
