T WAS a proud day for Reuben Kim-1
when be waa selected aa engineer o:

buaetta. Hack In the forties, vihei
ullroading vaa young and Innovntloiia
were regarded vfitb an Interest not
jaded with the many Inventions and
contrivance of modern science, thr
newi that the Western railroad, whirl
now forma a part of the Duston Al
bany system, had put on a mammoth
freight engine, larger than any jel
tried, excited a widespread curiosity,
not limited to the circle of railroad
men, which was then much smaller
than It la now. Among the engineer
nnd firemen, however, the curiosity ha:
something of excitement mingled with
it, born of the desire to be put It;

Finch was an envied man the duy hit.
appointment was made known. Not
lesa fortunate than Finch, In the esti
mation of his brotherhood, was Jumo
Marcey, who waa selected to run with
him aa fireman on the Massachusetts
It was something to be placed in charge
of a mighty monster, which made ai,
the other engines on th road look like
children's toys.
Early In December the Maesachu-
setta was brought up from the shops at
Lowell, and was sent Hp and down thr
road, while Finch adjusted everv litti.
part till she was In good working trim.
The test of the engine was awaited with
firenx Interest, aa fabulous tales wen
told of the number of cars she cou!::
haul. The test was to be a severe one.
but there waa one thing that Inter
fered; there were not cars enough
unttind to make it Interesting. In thoHe
days the freight traffic was very limit
ed. Each road kept its own cars on its
own road, aa the railroad men any, and
the variety from every mad in the'eoun
try could not be seen on each track, a
It Is to-day. Bo, to get enough cars, a
tribute was levied on each pasting
freight train. It delayed the traffic a
few days, but goods sent by freight in
the funics were not perishable.
The test . was to be made over the
rack from Worcester to Kprincfleld
nd on December 18, 1840, 3S cars had
oecn collected, enough, it was thought,
to give the engine a most thorough test,
f r 3S cars made a tremendous load, as
loads were then. In the afternoon
Finch and Marcey oiled up the parts
anew and made everything ready for
the triumphal trip to Ppringfleld."
A couple of toots on the whistle, a
clat ping of the bell and Finch, open
ing the throttle, felt the great engine
roll out on the main track with seem
ingly aa little effort aa though tlere
"ere not string of freight can be
hind nee nearly a quarter of a mile
long. There were two or three men In
the cab with Finch and Marcey. among
them Wilson Eddy, known the country

slip. Railroad acridenta were

yet been extended across the Connecti
cut river at Springfield, but the abut
menta for a bridge were being built
Before the handsome Boston & Albany
station was built at Springfield there
was a steep grade which swept down
into the city from the east.
Beginning about a mile back from
the city the track dropped quickly
down past the station and came to an
end at the river bank, 300 yards below.
This was the jumping-off place, for the
tracks had not been built uut on the
bridge. To the right, diverging slight
ly from the main track, a spur led to
the roundhouse, which stood on thr
river bank, not far away. It was here
that the engines were faced about for
the return trips.
As the Massachusetts, coming in trl
nmpoantiy irom its ou-nuie run, ap
proached the brink of the hill a mile
back from the river, Finch began to
slow down and as he did so lie began
to realize that the heavy train bad
considerable impetus. Ue was afraid
to risk going down the grade with
so few brakes and decided to stop and
block the wheels, seeing that the track
was very slippery. So he shut off the
steam and applied the brakes. To his
surprise they seemed to have no effect
on tbe heavy train.
-vvaicn out, men, saia Mnrcev, or
youH have us on the grade. It's pret
ty slippery.
Finch made no reply, but DervoiiRly
reversed the throttle, sending the
wheels spinning backwards over the
greasy rails in spite of the weight of
the engine, but not staying in the leaht
the movement of the train. The dip In
the grade came nearer and nearer, and
at last Finch cried:
"My God, boys, I don't believe I can
stop her!"
Then suddenly the engine leaped for
ward as It felt the steeper grade, and
tie speed Increased each second In
spite of Finch's efforts as car after car
swept oter the brink and pushed for
ward with a force that was not to be
resisted. The occupants of the eal
could do nothing but cling to the en
gine with a helplessness which became
despair, as they saw that the big en
gine was entirely beyond control. But
as the Massachusetts came rushing
down toward the depot the full hor
ror of the situation burst upon her oc
cupants, for there seemed to be no
way to escape plunging straight Into
the abutments of the new bridge.
There was a scramble for tbe side of
the cab. Eddy made the first Jump
and he rolled off the tracks just at the
station, unhurt. Moore, the conductor,
and Nichols, a fireman who was riding
in the cab. Jumped next and were not
seriously injured, while back of them
the trainbands were jumping to the
right and left for their lives. Finch
bravely stuck to the Massachusetts, do
ing all be could to stop the headlong
rush and planning to jump at the last
moment at the river bank, and Marcev
stayed with him.
A few seconds more and the whole
train would be piled up in the river.
but just then a curious thing occurred.
As the Massachusetts reached the point
where the spur track led off to the
roundhouse, Finch felt a sudden Jerk
sldewlse that told him the engine had
taken the switch, and realizing that it
must plunge into tbe roundhouse In.

an instant's hesitation and without see
ing what his landing place was (rolntr

Just In front of the roundhouse and
went rolling yards away from the
truck, while the mighty engine with Its
long train of car went rushing- at full
speed through the double doors. Mar
cey had delayed his jump too long and
was burled In the debris Into which
the roundhouse engine and cars were
resolved.
Abel Millard, the master mechanic
of the road, had heard the engine com
ing down the grade, and supposing that
It was some engine wanting to come In
there, bad thrown the switch. The
force with which the Massachusetts
pushed by the heavy train, struck thr
roundhouse wss tremendous. The old
engine, Humpden, which was stand
ing on the track inside, was driven
through the brick wall on tbe further
side and brought up atandlng, after
limbing a woodpile which stood on
the very brink of the river. Bat foi
this tbe Massachusetts would have gone

trifling obstacle of a brick roundhouse
Ibe cars piling into the bouse after
the engine filled it to the roof with
wreckage, and the frightful confusion
gave a new idea of the possibilities of
railroading. The debut of tbe Massa
chusetts had eaused the loss of four
lives at well at the demolition of the
train and the roundhouse. Marcey was
onneu aeep in the wreckage; Willard

According to official returns about
4,000 American lassies have visited
Nova Scotia this season, and most of
these, coming or going, It is safe to
presume, have touched at Halifax for a
longer or shorter time, as may be.
Among tbe treasure of these lassies
will be found unles the reader of
feminine nature baa gone all astray
a short tlck, silver or nickel tipped
and ferruled. This Is tbe famous
"swagger" tick of Tommy Atkins,
who, as one of the citadel's defenders, a
brave Leinster, guards the officials of
high degree who are unmarried ajid
eligible from the attack of feminine
invasion. Tommy Atkln without
swagger would be like a Chinaman
without a cue, and these little sticks
are just tbe final touch needed to in
spire the onlooker with becoming feel
ing of awe as to Tommy's martial
mien.
With hi scarlet cap, about the sire of
s wafer, one glove on and one off, and
the short awagger tlek which be
twirl by times, fiercely, sentimentally,
coquet tishly, as circumstance may de
mand, Tommy Is by no mean an un
pleasant sight. Frond It the girl who,
by bribery or cajoling, bat Induced
Tommy to part with bis twagger stick,
when she exhibits It to ber chums,
who have not been sent to Halifax, and
prouder yet when those who have been
there are conscious of their own short
sightedness In not noticing thl very
important part of Tommy Atkins' tt
tire.
