T the time of wbicb I am writing 1 wnn living in Kccliisiuu in u email town nbout tbirty-tive milcH north of Lon¬ don.

Tbe horror ot tbo situation now flashed upon mo. .\ mau's lifo—the lifo uf my old frien.l's sou—depended upon me. I looke.l at my watch. It was just eleven o'clock. Hurriedly I dragtfcd on my boots, thinking tbe while what I should do. .My Ilrsl iiu- pulso wus to rush lo tho telegraph office. Then, with .lismoy, I reineiu bered tbat it was shut tor the nigbt after H o'clock, au.l tb.it tho postiuiLs- t(;r took tbo .S.:i.J   train   to tbe   Inrgo
towu   ot   F , about   tivo miles oil,
whero bu lived, leaviug tho oilloe for thoniKhtin charge of a caretaker, and rotnriiing by an early train the next morning.
It was impossible lu telegraph. Thon I thuugbt of guing to tho police (there wore just two coustablcs and a ser¬ geant iu our littlo iown). but what could thoy llo moro than I? Couutry poiioo are proverbial for tue leisurely "routine" manner in which they sot about uu iuijniry, nu.l it wuulil uut do tu trust them.     I wa.H iu despair.
Madly I threw on mv hut unl rushed out. I ran in a mechauicul way to the po."(unioe. Of conrse, it wus shut— and if I had aroused tho caretaker ho oouldu't huve wired ; besi.les. all our wires weut first to F——, and, as I have said, all commnuioution was shut un olter 8 o'clock. Thou I started for tbe railway stotion. 'This was about half a mile from the pastolllco and well outside tho towu. .As I hur¬ ried ttlom?, I thun^bt, with frosh dis¬ may, that this woul.l also prove a fruitless errun.l, for tbo last train to .Silkmin iter was tho 8.3) p. m., by wbieh I have montioned tbu postmas¬ ter always traveled. Silkminster, I must meutioii, was nearly 150 miles llown tho liue.
Shuuld I wait till tho moruing and telegraph? I remonibered that the ollieo dill nut upun till eight o'clock I I bail, by Ibis time, reached tho st* tiuu. Of course, it was ull shut npand all tbu lights wern ont, except thuse in tbe sisrunl lamps for tho uight express. It was uow halt pust cloven. Wus there no hojie?    Yea.
At this moment my eye caught a light in thc sigual bux, about a ipiar- tor of a luilo up tbe lino. I coul.l seo thc signuliiiau in his box, tbo uiitliuo of his ligure stauiling ont against the li;;bt within. I looked at my watch; tho dowu expread from Lou.Iou was ulmost .lue. I woul.l mako a rush for that signal box, and compel tbo uoeu- puut 111 put tbo signal aguiust it and i-tup it. It wns a desperate game, but only g. t tbut truin tu stup for nu in- Ktuut, aud ull would bo right, liy get¬ tiug.; iulo It I Conld roach Silkminster iu tbo early murning, aud whut curo.l I fur any aotiou tbe company might tnke if I taved my friend's sou? It tho sigualmuu refused tu put bnck tho lovers, tho streugth born of dospora- tiuu would enable mo to master bim, und relax them myself. All this Hashed ucro^s me in au iustant, aud 1 c'umbcri'.l ovor tbo railings ou the side of tbo station, and fouud mysoH uu the liue.
Eveu UK I reached thu rails a sema¬ phore signal that was near mo let fall its nrm, uml tbo re.l light chnuR;cd in¬ to a brilliaut greoo. The cxpreHS was Signaled I Wonld there bo time? I .lasho.I along over thu rough sleepers towanl tho signal box. it wos vory dark anil I stunililod over and over ugain. I bad cleared aiiout half the dii-tanco wbeu I heard tbe oiuinous ruur uheail, and in a few HioundsouuUl .li.ttinguisb tho distiiut glitter ot the cn;{iue'H bead lump bearing tuward me. Tho train wus just ovor a mile from me, riisliiiig ou at cxpress^Hpeed. Wilh a gronu I ejaculated. "Too lute!"
At that instaut my oyo fell upon a ghastly looklug struulure by the si.lo of tbo track, luuking grimly through tbe dnrkuess. It resembled a one nrincd gull.iws wilh a man hanging from it I Fur a moment I thoaght it must havo beeu u fearful fancy con¬ jure.1 up by tho thonght of Feu- tluirst's dreadful f'lte, but immediute¬ ly I roniombored that this strange luoking apparition was none other tbau u ni.'iil bug stis])oii.lo.l from apost — ill fuel, part of the apparatus by which 11 train goiu^' ut full speed picks up tbe mails. Tbe express train that wus coming had a poitul cur uttache.l tll it. From tbe side of the enr a strong ropo uet woul.l be lai.l out, catching tho bug I saw suspended boforo me.
.As u bu;^ would bo deposit Oil from tho truin iu a somowhat niiuilar muu¬ uer, there ought to huvo beeu a man ou HUard. I ultcnvard fuuud bo bud left hia post uul gono to have a chat with his friuud in the cheery sigual boi.
.K mad and desperate idea took pos¬ session uf me. The train tbut wus Ileunug down, oad which would reach lue in one minute, shoul.l pick mo up with tbo mails! I grasped the idouol tbe thing in a second. Jf I oonl.i bang ou to thut ba.< so that it came betweeu me aul tho net, it wonld break the force ol the shock, ami tho uet would receive me as well at the bag. Fur tunatelv 1 am a small man. Tho lia^; buug just over my head. 1 jumped at it, seized it, drew myself up parallel With it, belli it tiriiily at the top, wbere it swung by a hook, and drew my legs np su as to preseut as small u cumpuM as possilile. It di 1 not luke uie half a munte to do ull this. Then 1 waited. It wus but a few secouds, but it seemed hours. I hoard the ruur uf the approarliing traiu. Thon the ennine dashed pust me. I shull never forKet the row of Iighte.l carriuges pa.s.->ing about a foot uwuv Irom me — ciuser even tban that, 1 suppose—anl I hunting uu.l wuiting fur the crash tu eome.
Au.l it csme. There was a dull tbnd —a whir aa.l a rush, un.l all was .lark. When I came tu my sen..es 1 was ly¬ ing uu the door uf tbo postal vau.
