Ttl? Stars.
Gao thoee bright atar* be like thia world
Of Borrow, sin and strife?
' Were not all things for nee decreed,
No voe ano y designed,
By Him whose majesty and power
Aro to no placo confined?
Yon concavo vast of systems bright,
Grand as the noonday ann,
Waa not created to illume
This world, lost wheo begun,
? But made unnumbered years ago
By wisdom all sublime, .
That would not fill with ain or blight
A single starry clime.
Those countless orbs must ever roll -
Within yon azure dome;
But ruin! ?arno by one rash act .
To thia, our earthly home.
Tho grandeur of thoae starry worlds
No mortals may explore,
And fanoy 'mid their tracklesstopace,
But wonders to adore.

CUMMKKI.EY OAP.
OOSTCIiUDEX).
I telegraphed to Linderibury:
"Where ia tho Limo Lake Mail?"
Directly the answer came:
"Comoon. All right."
Tho same words over again. Not a
word of that train ahead, lt was strange;
bnt we were behind time yet.
."Go ahead 1" I called. "Make up lost
time."
It was twenty-seven minutes past 0.
We had nineteen miles yet to Linden. It
was five miles to Brentford, the next sta?
tion West.
At Brentford I telegraphed again :
"Where is the Lime Lake Mail?"
? knew the Brentford operator, of
course; his name was John Murray. He
sont off the message, repeating the words
aloud:
"Where is the Lime Lake Mail?"
Waiting the reply, I asked him:
"Havo yoU had any word of the Mail
this side of the Branch ?"
"Not a word. No messages West of
here, except to yon, since half-after 7."
The return message clicked off the
wires. You may be sure I watched Mur?
ray's lips for the words. Again the very
same:
"Come on. AU right."
Not a word more.
I hod no time to wait. We were still a
little behind. My duty was to make that
np and obey my orders.
"Give me the slip," I said.
I had tho other two in my pocket. I
remembered that, and was thankful for
so much. They would clear mo, what?
ever happened. But, none the less, I
was fretted by the thought of that off
time train somehow ahead in the dark.
I signalled Morris to increase the speed.
I stood by a lamp and took out the throe
slips of telegraph paper. There was no
mistake. I read eaoh one over carefully.
The words were plain: "All right. Come
on."
You say I had; no cause for such anxi?
ety as I describ?? that I 'was pretty close
on time; the words of tho telegrams sim?
ple, and snob as would nut?rally occur
in such a ouse; that the same words
should be repeated was no more strange
than happens every day.- You thiuk. I
exaggerate for effect? I say you know
nothing about it. I say it iras strange
that those words were three times repeat?
ed. It was strange that they should
come at all in answer to my message;
they did not answer my question. Hal?
lowell said Clunnerlane expected to be
after him in half ru honr. By that we
should have met him at Brentford sta?
tion. I say I was horribly noxious; tea
times moro than I've written down. One
says, I was mad to increase the speed,
fearing what I did. I tell you I did my
duty. I was bound to keep on time and
obey, my orders. They have no right to
taunt me; it was bad* enough, without
that. I say I did my duty. It was only
three miles and a half to Hackerby. I
was thankful to hear the whistle at the
last cross-roads. I was in the office be?
fore the train had stopped.
"Marks," I cried, "do you know
where's tho down nyul?"
"No.":
"Telegraph Lindon bury; quick! Say,
.For God's sake, where is the Lake
Mail?-' "
I thought the answer would nevet
como. I longed and feared to hear it.
Here is the slip now, with those same
terrible words:
"All right. Come on."
As Marks read thoso words, I broke
out with a coree.
"What's the row?" ho said. "Hold
on. There's more."
? jumped at that
"Goon. Quiokl"
"AH right. Come on. Be on yow
guard!"
I rushed out. Morris was watching,
I waved my arm. The train moved on
It was scant fonr miles to Garrowsfield
the last this side of Lindenbury. I weir
forward and looked ont ahead. Wo wen
running pretty fast; thirty-five miles t(
the hour, I should say. We wero np t(
oUr time at last. Wo were runuinf
through the Clitheroo Hills, the rom
winding up the valley of the Garrow; t<
the left the river flowed dark and silent
Now and then you caught a gleam frou
the gloomy current; hero and there th?
sound of its brawling over a stony bcd
Yon saw the 1. jhts of a village, now am
again, twinkling among tho loomitij
hills across the Garrow. Hero wi crossct
a roaring culvert; then, the river run
ning to the right, ran out on the higl
embankment at Mack's Ford, and s
across by Half Mile Trestle Bridgo.
I kept my eyes aboad; a horrible fea
tormented me. Thatstrange, four time
repeated telegram tortured me. Th
words were constantly in my ears,
heard them in the roar of thu rushin
train-"Come on, come on, come on!
And thoso other added words; whfi
could they moan?" Why wero we to /
on our guard? Where could that Lak
train bo? Why had they not sent ID
word? It was n terrible muddle ult<
gother. In nine years' running on rai
Linden. Tli?Llil>ttenbary telegrapher I
bad known 'ior years. His o*$? waa
Henry ?len?l?j^a tall, browigtajprded
man, of tw^SJ-filae o* thirty.-"T^y I
bad knowb ito^Dngj i dp; not mean
that I was int?mate withliim, but (nat I
.knew bim as one knows the men he
meeta every day. Ho waa a superior
man, every way, as wa railway naen go.
We all owned to that in a tacit way, and
most of us liked and respected bim
much. He was the last man on the lino
that any of us would mistrust. Tempo
rate, punctual, somewhat taciturn, he
was always at bis post and never made
mistakes. O? late, he had grown more
quiet than eyer; it waa .evident that
some secret trouble wes wearing on him.
His face had'Rot a care-worn look; we
noticed a streak of gray here and there
in his hair and beard. But, if anything,
be was more faithful than ever in his
work in the' Linden office. Of course,
we never spoke to him of the change in
him; but we did among ourselves, and
were nil sorry for. him, in our way.
Farley said it. was. his wifo was leading
him a sorry life of it. Ho had married,
a year or two beforo, a girl from Cnro
mel Corners, they said, named Mary
Winton, I think. Only tho day before,
coming down with the Garrow and Glon
Kilns Express, I had met Blissom, with
the up mail, at Hackerby Station, and
said to him:
"What's up with Glenning, now? He
looks dreadfully cut up."
Blissom was a Lindenbury mau; I live
in Tidewater, myself.
"That Mary Winton's n-leading Glen?
ning a nnggy tramp of it, I hear," says
Blissom; ho knew Mary before she was
married. "They do say she's a tarrier
to go on when her back's up, and gives
it to Glenning all-fired." Blissom was a
good fellow, but rough.
But, as I said, Glenning seemed all
the more faithful sinco his homo trou?
bles; I never thought of doubting him.
So we plunged on through the darkness.
1 We had a passenger car that night, as it
uncommonly happened, directly behind
the tender. I stood on the forward plat?
form, and kept an anxious lookout. The
air was full of a thick drizzle; our speed
made a strong West wind there, outside.
Ou we went, keeping our paco well up
we hnd no right to go ahead of time
through Sadler's drop, in the Clitherow
Hills, out then into tho level country
beyond. As the whistle blew for Gar
rowfield Station, I passed back tbrougl
the forward car. Tho telegraph office ic
( 3 arrowfield is a little East of the plat'
form. Seeing tho passengers look hard
at me, I then first noticed that mj
clothes were dripping wet. Near tht
rear end of the car an Irish woman sat,
with her head on the window, fast asleep
T shook her roughly; I hoped she mighl
get down here. She started up with i
confused flutter.
"This Hackerby, sir?"
"Last station back," I said. "You'r<
too far on."
"Ow, thin, au' what'll iver I do?'
says she. "Shure, Dennis is afther os
pectin' of me, au' he'll think I'm kilt in
tirely."
"You must get oft' hero," I said
"Como, be quick." The train was be
ginning to slow speed.
"Shure, thin, sir," she pleaded, "it'i
mesilf has au owu sisthcr, is a launder)
in LindiDgbarry, itself. If ye'd be st
kind to lit mo down there. I haven't nc
monoy, sir; but I'd bring it ye bright ir
the marnin'."
"Can't do it," I said. Wo wore clos<
upon tho station. I bustled her out
roughly enough, I suppose.
A gentleman, sitting by with his wife
had been watching us. I saw his faoi
fire up as I hustled tho woman out. Hi
jumped up and faced mo.
"What do you mean?" he says, all hot
"It's a brutal shamo to put tho womal
off in the night, in a .strange town, will
no money. Here, I'll pay her fare."
I pushed her through the door; gav
him no answer. He held mo by tin
arm.
"Your name?" ho demanded, sternly
"Mine is Charles Holden. I report you.1
I was not angry with him-he did no
know.
..My name is William Whipple."
I saw a fellow I knew on the platform
"Caley," I calls, "show this woman
decent lodging. Pay-I'll make it al
right."
I telegraphed to Linden:
"Shull I come on? Why don't yo
send me word of the Lime Lake Mail?'
I don't think I breathed till the ar
swer came :
"Come on. Be on your guard. GE
HEKE nv 10."
Good huaveu! ?t was maddening
What did it mean? What could i
menu?
I rushed out, waved my arm madly t
Morris.
"Go on, there-quick!" I yelled.
I ran ahead, and climbed up on th
engine. I looked at my watch. 1
wanted six niiunf.es of 10! I held th
slip before his eyes. His fuco blanche
white ns a corpse.
"Good God, Whipple! it's scveut
miles an h OUT!"
"I don't know what it means. It
some mad work. But we've got to obe
orders. Drive like h- !
I run through tho train taking til
fares. How could they laugh and tall
Every minute I heard the scream of tl
traiu ahead, that I dreaded as I sha
never fear death. The speed iucreasc
steadily. Tho curs rooked on the spring
Tho passengers grow uneasy; tho womc
looked fearfully ono to another. Son
men expostulated:
"Why aro you running so fast? I
yon want to murder us all?"
"Wo aro Ordered to bo at Lindenbui
by 10," I said. It wanted just four ir
untes. I saw tho glaro of Bell's ltollii
Mills flash by-fivo miles ondit half
L.!
I ran forward to tho platform of tl
! first car. By tho forward door sat a lad
I with a child iu bei- lap, asleep-a lit!
red that night seem barfit into cay me
strangers' hands, more tra? kindness and
Christian courtesy then I had believed
in before; and shutting my eyes, I see
that sweet child's faoe smiling in its pare
dreams, the mother's beautiful face
b no odin g above it with a look?of/ hea?
venly tenderness and love. I feel the
heave of the hurling train, feel the car
sway and spring with .tho terrible speed.
I remember all, as I saw it harrying
throngh the car. I passed out on the
platform. It wanted three minutes of
10. I knew we could not make it,
though Morris was driving on with
every pound of steam. I saw him stand?
ing at the levers, brawny and stalwart
against the glare of the head-light, flying
ahead on tho track, ono arm raised and
grasping the lever, looking steadfastly
forward, never turning his hoad to right
or left. I knew what he looked for
only too, weill I shudder and turn sick to
thiuk'of it, now.
Before Heaven, it was awful. To stand
out there iu that rushing whirlwind,
clinging as for your lifo in that swaying,
hurling flight; to stare forward iuto that
awful darkness; to strain your sight until
you were dizzy and blind, and your eyes
wero fire; and yet not dare to closo them
or turn away-deafened and stunned by
that terrible jar and roar; heart and pulse
faint with a horrible fear-tho fear of
sudd. .1 death!
Was I a coward-who says it? May
ho be tried alike! God forgive me-what
do I say? Pray heaven, no-that wero a
fiend's prayer. 1 do not say I did not
caro for myself. I did-who cares no!
for his lifo that is man? I thought of a
little humble home sixty miles behind:
of a little brown-fneed boy, smiling in
happy sleep; of a dear heart bending
over tho crib, perhaps; sewing by thc
lonely lamp; praying for me, it might
be, out of her pure, true heart. I thought
of these, and I prayed to Heaven tc
sparo mo to life and love. But more
than of this, I say and know, I thought
of the hundreds that trusted to mo foi
their lives-looked to me to seo to it thal
they encountered no needless peril. Tc
strain ahead into that awful gloom-tc
think and think of those poor souls ir
my charge-I swear it was torment.
I lost all senso of time and place, it
tho intense strain of sight and thought
I could not anywhere we were^itseemec
wo were running for hours. I knev
what I looked to soe-what I fearec
with a horrible dread; I knew only that
Morris never slackened the pace; h<
drove his eugine on with every pound o
power. They tell me wo made five mile:
in half a minute more.
Suddenly, we leaped through a belt o
deeper gloom; a heavy roll of thunde
struck my ears with a stunning crash,
kuew it was Merrill's Gap. Tho road la;
lovel through tho plain to Climmerle;
Gap beyond. Half of tho way wu
passed; we hurled on, terrible as fate.
Suddenly, out of the blackness o
Cl iin morley Gap, there flashed-oh God
a great, white light.
I went iu then and shut thc door. .
They must have seen it in my face
When I turned aud looked forward again
tho lady with tho child stood at my side
I shall never forget tho look in her face
tho child was clasped to her heart
"What is it?" she said.
She spoke in a whisper, moro awfu
than any cry. The two engines screamei
like charging demons; wheels reversed
and every brake hard down, wo wen
staggering, shuddering, grinding on t
our doom. But, through all that terri
ble din, I heard that awful whisper fron
those beautiful, bloodless lips.
1 pointed forward to the great, whit
light, glowing down thc lino straigh
upon us.
"Ti's death," I said.
She answered me not a word. Sh
lifted the child to her face, then clutche
it to her heart. "Louise, Louise!" sh
moaned, and sank back out of my sight
I stood and looked ahead. . A.t 'th
first alarm, the fireman had jampee
Morris stood to his post. I saw hil
whistle down brakes, reverse his engine
set his bell riuging, do all that mort;
could do. Then ho stepped back, stet
died himself, uud leaped out iuto th
dark. I saw it all; it was only n mc
meut's time.
That terrible white light dashed straigl
upon us-that awful, blinding glare c
death!
I heard a horrid crash, like 10,00
cannon-like tho rendi ig of the worlc
I felt myself lifted and hurled throng
the air-kndeked, battered, poundet
pressed, bruised, twisted, crushed, str??c
on the back as with ii steam-wliirle
shaft. Then I was hying on the grnsi
with a blinding glare in my [ey es.
heard a low, weak moan. I turned m
head-a woman lay close beside nie, wit
a child clasped tight to her heart. Ther
was blood on the beautiful lips-bot
were dead.
I remember no more. Heaven spare
mo Ibo rpht of that horrible night. I wi
taken up for dead. They brought m
here, to St. Stophen's, to this bed, whei
I have lain these six long months-lou
months, and very weary, though all tin
gentleness and skillful hands could d

[From the Tidewater Herald, April 23.
The wretched operator, Henry i
Glenning, of Lindcnbnry, whose drunk?
folly caused tho terrible disaster on tl
T. and L. L. It. R., night beforo las
hung himself yesterday morning, ia
barn near OU wrrafiy,. Oap.? The evi
I dence at the coroner's inquest went to
show that deceased ' had par taken freely
of brandy on tho evening of the collision,
after ho waa already in a etat? of ovideut
intoxication.
In another column of this morning's
Herald, we print the only full and relia?
ble lists of the ? killed and injured.
Among the latter, our readers will notice
tho name of Mrs; Mary W. Glenning,
wife of the Lindenbury operator, who
received "severe contusions of the head
and face," and now lies at n farm house
in a critical condition. Thus itstrangely
happens tbnt the perpetrator of this ter?
rible crimo hos his own wife for one of
his victims. Wo learn that she intended
to have taken the Down Night Express;
but, being early at tho station, caught,
most unhappily, tho belated mail. Upon
her person was found a through ticket
from Hilary, next West of L., to this
city. She was escorted, wo understand,
by a Mr. Mason, an old and esteemed
friend of tho most unfortunate lady.
