Apply to C. H. SALMONS, SECRETARY, AURORA. ILL. 1 1 Awful dangers are lurking nigh, Rocks and chasms are near the track; But straight by the light of its great white eye, Terrible thoughts and fierce desires It hates, as the wild horse hates the rein, Oh, what am I but an engine shod With muscle and flesh by the hand of God, Often and often my mad heart tires, And leave the end in the hands of fate. Oh! ponderous engine of steel and steam; A Fortunate Error. I. HE train carried a notable crowd, the best of people, bound in various directions. With only two of them has our story to do-with the two young men who found themselves vis-avis in the smoker of the new drawing No. 3. room car "Tippecanoe." Both were of that mold which wins a second glance, of athletic build, aristocratic in appearance, and, strange to say, both bags were of Gladstone pattern, large, brown leather ones of the same size. Soon they were established in each other's liking, and before long they had exchanged cards, cigars and confidences; the latter, though, of a very limited nature. Lyle Kingsland was a member of the Produce Exchange, a lieutenant in the "Seventh," and belonged to the right set generally. He was bound for Virginia, where he expected to spend a week with his friend, Murdock Frazar, have a run with the Piedmont Puntan Association fox hunters, and do a little running on his own initiative for Katharyn, Frazar Murdock's pretty and rich sister. Heywood Rolt, who occupied the smoker with Kingsland, was, though also well built, of smaller physique. He introduced himself as the junior member of a large London banking-house firm, having charge of the Quebec branch of the house. He was going to Washington, spoke of his friends, the Bagtown-Norths, the Undercutts and the Wetneys, but carefully avoided to mention that bis mission was to win, if he could, the elder Miss Biggs, one of the wealthiest girls at the capital. The contrast between Rolt and Kingsland was marked. The latter easy, of quiet disposition, methodical, almost mechanical, rarely changing his position but for one of greater comfort. He would have been selected as a man of brains in any assemblage. Rolt was also a man of evident culture, but his clothing was a trifle too conspicuous. His hands showed little traces of other work than the manicure's, and he was perfumed and pomaded. He was just the kind of butterfly to be welcome to the homes of the Bagtown-Norths, the Undercutts and the Wetneys. |
