He would not have known of the cuts on his face and neck but for the blood which was running down from them , but the pain in h is swollen hands and on his blistering face was excru ciating. His faithful fireman's cloth ing had caught fire from the Humes, and the mau was ducking himself iu the water-tank. Then, seeing the ter rible distress of his chief, he threw bucketfuls of water all over him, which gave Root somo relief for a while. Twice or three times the engineer was overe<*ne by the torture, and fell exhausted from his seat; but tho fire man picked him op, lifted him to his Beat, and threw water on him. Again the half-cooked hands that held the lives of three hundred people in their in w h ite when he said this to me. a humble little home in White Hear, M innesota, not far from St. Paul. up It was on a September day in 1H94, in humble little homo in W hite Hei St. Root had just passed through one of the m ost terrible experiences in the history of railroading in any land, •whd he,w as the hero of the occasion; yet he was ao simple-minded and u n affected th a t he wondered why the people ware talking about him. Then he told, me, amid winces of pain, som e thing of the danger he had passed through. He was tho engineer on the after noon train which left D u luth on the first d ay of S eptember. From D u luth southw ard the railroad passes through a d e n u d e d forest region, once covered with a heavy growth of pine. All the m erchantable pine had beeu out away, leaving much undergrow th and many small trees. Aa the whole Northwestern region bad been w ithout rain since April, the woods were like tinder. Some one had set fire iu tUem, and for miles ont of D u luth the traip ran through dense •moke. I quite well remember riding through the same region the year be fore, when the woods were on fire. The air in tho car was stifling with the pungent pine smoke; the burning trees here and there along tho track were standing like slender pillows of Are, their trunks crackling in tho \flames while the heat was so intense that the coaches became almost unin habitable. But this was as nothing beside the fire through which this engineer drove his train on th a t smoky Septem b er day. W hen ho was about seventy miles from D n lnth the air became so thick with smoke he could hardly seo hie way ahead. The lamps in tho eab, and iu the passenger coaches as well, were lighted, although it was still early in t h e afternoon- Jam e s Root had passed through tho same country many times before in very sim ilar circumstances, and he saw no unprecedented danger until he neared the little town of Hinckley, There the heat became so intense— much as if it were being driven from the throat of somo vast furnace—that bis apprehension was aroused. Still there was no unusual sign, of lire iu tb f immediate vicinity, and he knew these vast smoke-clouds m ight be carried scores of miles from the actual scene of tho fire. Bnt as hie engine was slowing near the little town, several men came eirir >ey townwwu was on fire,it', and running as if for the lives out of tho wall of smoke. Th cried that the * wmuu — bjiu begged him to take them on board.

Men, women and cbildie^w e re in the crowd—at least two hundred of them —and q* they reached tho train, they swarmed up into tho coaches and begged to be carried to a place of •an tx . There wereabont one h u ndred and fifty passengers in the conches, and they were uuy jammed to suffoca tion by the frenzied refugees.

It was not the work of many mminutes to send the traiu back to tho which was many ti this terrible fire; the rei hie cab seemed to explod spontaneous combustion, was well-nigh enveloped iu the flames. A friend who was caught iu this fire, and who walked aloug the railroad track for miles through the burning woods, told me that he saw many such vast explosions iu the air iu the midst of the awful heat. The heavy glass in the side of the eab bent in with the great heat, ami then burst in pieces, some of ulueh cut gashes dow n the face and neck of the engineer, lie raw that ho could not advance; he did not dare to wait to extinguish the tire, which was burn ing the e a rs and the engine m all ex posed places; he feared to start back ward, for it seemed like running into an awful furnace of flame to reverse his engine and seek safety in that d i rection. But it was certain death for all to remain where he was. Like an elec trio flash The thought eame to his mind that there was a dark, foul-smelling pond of water and uind backward a few miles. On t h a t instant hi* lever was reversed, and hie traiu began a race with the flames of death. Aa the train got under wav. several ‘ of th a pond, b u t they were most terrible m inutes for the people in tho coaches behind the engine. Three of the passengers went crazy in that little time, and jum p ed to their death through panes of glass; it was only by tho greatest efforts on the part of the cooler-headed passengers that others were kept from suicide. The exposed woodwork of the en gine canght fire, the eab lamp melted down, the sides of the coaches were charred and burning, end yet on the train sped, the roar of the tire unceas ing, the coaches resounding with shrieks and screams. tied the courage and the nerve ol the engineer deserted him, had the train stopped, in a few cruel seconds the three hundred people m u st hnvo burned to death; b n t he h eld his post, until at last tho swampy place was sighted. Ho slowed the train dow tho frenzied people plunged mai into the foul water, and the engineer fell exhausted to the floor of his call. The crew of the train ran to Root’s aid, bnt he told them he would save himself; they m u st save tho people. And just at the last moment he m an aged to crawl down to the water. Now the oars had taken fire, and were rapidly consumed. Two Chinamen iu cue of them would n o t leave, and were quickly burned to death. Possibly five hundred people, and perhaps even more, lost their lives iu the town and in the vicinity, although the exact number of those who p e rished will probably never be known. As I sat in James Root’s little bed room and heard him tell modestly of his part in the saving of those h u n dreds of people, do you wonder th a t I was deeply moved at this u n assum ing w itness to the truth that the golden ago of heroism has not yet passed away?—W.

Soon those who shirked work lived at the expense of the active toilers and the colony was compelled to s tart a scale of wages. Soon after the colony was founded the brainy men ceased to think—the necessity did not exist. There was no spur to ambition, no competition. Then it was discovered that the work done in the shops and mills was so in ferior that it was not marketable o u t side.
