SCOTT BOWNE, Chemists, New York. Kane Creek was a railroad crossing on the S.
and C. C. Railroad, about two miles 'from the division terminal at Mercer. It was in the midst of a scrubby pine forest, with a sandy road crooking out from the trees on one side and Into the trees en tire other. There only two or three houses, a little general store with a porch like the visor of a military cap and a achoolhouse, all arranged In a scraggy row along tlie railroad track.
The dusty red depot was an oasis in the midst of a cinder desert, with a great many telegraph wires liiging overhead. A dozen trains whirled through Kane every day with only a shriek of greeting and a whipping wake of fine and. Only two of. them, paid the slightest attention to the girl in a blue gingham dress who stood in the little observation window. One of them was the way freight, which stopped at Kane every time it came along while the conductor handed the girl a bundle of yellow papers and received another like it in return.
The other was the night express, westward bound from St. Paul, and running at '-forty miles an hour. It was a splendid train ten cars with the finest engine on the road, big No. 606. As its glaring eye flashed around the bend in the direction of Mercer the girl in the gingham dress often thought of the great train as a powerful and ferocious beast snorting and roaring westward on at race with the sun.
It was a beast, hut It was well trained, and she knew- the Jiand that trained It. When the train was a ml.e away, there were always two blasts of the whistle. Every one in Kane thought they meant simply, "Wake up, look out!" for that is what all locomotives say at every crossing, but the girl In the gingham dress heard "Hello, Polly!" and darted out on the platform and waved her handkerchief. As the great train tendered nearer a hand was- thrust from" the engineer's window, and. although it was usually dark, she could see the flutter of something white, and oftentimes as the engine darted past the station ahe heard the blurred sound of a voice and caught a glimpse of a grimy face and a blue jean Jacket, and then she went back to her place in the little Station with a nigh of deep contentment.
For it was a moment of great joy to Folly Marshall when her father's engine went, through. Polly was the station agent at Kane Creek. Any one could have told that a woman presided in the little depot, for. was there not always a bouquet in the window and dainty pic tures surrounding the grimy time-tables on the walls and a kitten curling upon the doorstep? At 17 Polly had gone in as assistant to learn and when Clark, the agent, was called to Mercer the company had left the Independent girl in charge. She and, her father lived in one of the wooden houses a stone's throw back from the depot, and since Polly's mother died they had been everything to each other.
Engineer Marshall was a big. silent man. and his companions, some of them, thought him giufl and ill-tempered, but to Polly he was always tender as a kitten. Often when she was a little girl he took her down with him to Mercer on his engine, and while she sat on his black leather seat at the cab window, clinging on with both hands, he explained to her bow the big black creature under them was started and topped, what this brass crank wap for, and how, when the engine squeaked here or squealed there, a little oil was needed in this cup or in that crevice, and Polly had learned to know an engine as welL as she knew the neat little pantry In the house at home. Indeed, she had mere than once managed the levers and the throttle, although It was very heavy work for a girl to do.
It was one night late In the fall that Polly Marshall had need of all her knowledge of engines. She was sitting at her desk in the little observation window, a shaded light throwing its rays down on her telegraph instruments and the sounder clicking sleepily. Suddenly she was startled by the call of her number. Instantly her fingers sought the keys, and she gave the answer that signified that she was all attention. "Look out for" flicked' the sounder, and then it suddenly ceased, and try as she would Polly could get no further communication with the station next to the eastward.
What-could-the, trouble be? What was she to look out" for? Polly sprang to her feet, remembering that the rtirv pi wnien ner iainer was en- for MEiiwa8 the next train due. Could JSpji Jv jthing be the matter? She ran out on ni- dask platform to see that her lights AMtftlCA'S CREATltT RAII.ROA&. NEWYOEK Central V-fc HUDSON RIVER R. R.

Den ft Gulf 1st West Shore Gta 4s 'WATSON ft GIBSON'S MARKET LETTER. "The stock market, Saturday, opened strong- at about Friday's closing; prices, and after hesitating for -a while became very active and stronger, under the leadership of C. B. ft Q. and Sugar, which advanced about one per cent.
The advance In Burlington and the rest ''of the Granger stocks was undoubtedly Influenced by the excellent report Issued by the ft Q. tor the month of September, showing one and one-half per cent, earned on the stock. This gives some Idea, of th. recuperative powers of. this system.
The general belief is that the company will earn over 8 per cent- on Its stock In the next fiscal year. "One of the favorable Influences of the morning was the reassuring statement of the Spanish Minister, at Washington, as to the tenor of that Government's reply to the United States on Cuban matters. "Consolidated Gas was an exceptionally weak feature on continued liquidation. There was very little commission buying In the market, as the outside publlo are not inclined ta take any very active part in the market until after the results of the elections are known. The traders who nave been bearish were inclined to reduce their outstanding contracts, and this accounted for the strength of the market.
"Bradstreet's report exports of wheat for the week at 3.911.391 bushels, showing that the foreign demand still continues. We have exported during the last thirteen weeks 70.000.000 bushels of wheat. "The weakness In Union Pacific In the face of a strong market was on' the belief that steps are being taken with a view to further interference with the reorganisation. "The bank statement showed an Increase In reserve of Jl. 367,100.
an Increase in loans of an increase In specie of 8836,000, an Increase In legal tenders of $2,430,000. an Increase In deposits of 87,874,000, and an Increase in circulation of 8100,400. The market sold off a little after the publication of this statement, but there was no material change, and It closed strong." The New Tork and Cuba Mail Steamship Company has contracted for two steamers, on the lines of the St. Paul and St. Louis, and equal, in their passenger accommodations, which will be built either at Cramps' or Roach's shipyards.
The new vessels will cost The New York Insurance Department's examination shows the surplus of the Hamilton Fire Insurance Company, Oct. 19, to have been $100,066. According to the last statement of the Controller of the Currency, the National City Bank of New Tork maintains its place at the head in respect to the volume of deposits. The First National of Chicago is second, National Park of New. York third, and the Hanover National Bank of America.
Fourth National. Im porters' and Traders' National, Chase National, Manhattan Company and American Exchange National, all of New! Tork, come next in the order named. In making this list, the last quarterly reports of State banks named have been employed. The organization of the Scottish-American Insurance Company has begun, and it will begin operations in January with $200,000 capital and $100,000 surplus. Charles H.

Consul-General Lee left Havana for the United States. through the cab cover above Polly's head. The engine was now tearing down the track at full speed.
Polly knew that It must be fired, or it would not go far, and so, leaving tha throttle open, she sprang to the coal pit, flung open tha firehole, and with the heavy shovel in her small white hands threw in load after load of coal. When she returned to her place, she could see the first signal light of Mercer already blinking Into view. She pulled down on the whistle cord, and the engine shrieked its distress. Five minutes later Polly strained at the heavy reverse lever, turned hard on the airbrake and brought the great Iron horse to a sudden standstill. How she ever managed to stammer the story she never knew, but in a few minutes the engine was headed back with half a dozen armed men aboard of her.
Behind them came another load of men on a switch engine and two men were racing up the street of Mercer calling the alarm. They heard firing before they reached Kane Creek, but it ceased soon afterward. The robbers had gone. They had taken with them much plunder from the passengers, but they had not been able to get into the express safe, although they were at work drilling it open when relief came. From the time that the engine stopped Polly was missing.
When the rescued and excited passengers and express messengers began to crowd around and inquire, the Mercer men remembered her. A party of them went out to find the girl who had brought help to the beleaguered train. In a little clump of bushes they heard a man moaning, and an instant later they saw Polly kneeling in the sand with her father's head in her lap, crying bitterly, and they gathered up the brave engineer and his daughter and carried them down to the train, cheering all the way. Engineer Marshall was not badly hurt, and he was able to be in Mercer when the general manager of the road thanked the blushing Polly officially and offered her a new and better position in Mercer, and, of course, all the passengers and express messengers heard about Polly's brave deed and said a great many pleasant things about her, but Polly, being a sensible girl, only blushed and said that she had to do It. and that any other girl would have done the same under like circ*mstances.
Which no one believed, of course. Later, when the robbers were captured, Polly was able to identify one of them positively the one who had run the engine and through him the entire party was convicted and sentenced to the penitentiary.

CORPORATION NOTICES. THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF Brooklyn do decide and ordain- as follows, vis That it Is necessary to cause the lots fronting upon the south side of Lexington avenue, between Sumner and Throop avenues, known as lots Nos. 85 to 88 inclusive. Block 4, Twenty-third Ward Mav. to be fenced with a close board fence, where not already done, to the height of six 6) feet, for the purpose of abating a nuisance, of which the present condition of the sad lots is the cause.
And they hereby ordain that said lots be so fenced at the expense of the owner or owners thereof, and the Department of City Works is hereby directed ttf advertise for proposals for doing each work. The foregoing decision and ordinance -were adopted by tha said Common Council by a two-thirds vote tbla fltt dy June. 1B37. 10-2-Ut BENJAMIN, CJty Clerk, were ait in place uuu mai me bwilcucb were properly set, so that the express "would slip past the station without an accident. Then she went back and called up Mercer.
"Can you get Pinckney?" she asked. Pinckney was the station which had sent her the warning dispatch so Interrupted. She knew the operator at Pinckney well. Every night he told her of the approach of her father's train and whether or not it left his station on time. "Pinckney quiet.
Can't get answer," wag the report of the wires. "What's the trouble?" Polly answered as well as she could, and Mercer made another attempt to arouse Pinckney. Her father's train was now due. It should be whistling cheerily at the lower bend. Polly stepped out on the platform and peered up the track.
Yes, there was the familiar headlight. She would have known it among a hundred. Then came the whistle, "Hello, Polly!" and Polly ran back into her office much relieved, and sat down to warn Mercer. At that instant she heard a peculiar cracking sound that sent her heart quivering deep in her bosom. Then there was the shrill scream of the locomotive whistle, suddenly interrupted as if the hand that had drawn the lever had been struck from its place.
Polly knew It was a cry of distress. It seemed to say "Herp!" in a long, tremulous wall. Instantly Polly darted ouCftide and flew up the track. Already the express should have thundered past the station, but she could see its headlight a hundred yards or more away. With a hundred terrifying questions flashing through her mind.
Polly ran on through the gloom. When she was almost within range of the big headlight, she saw half a dozen armed men swarming around the engine, she heard fierce oaths, ana then the engine started up again. She saw in an instant that It had been cut free from the train. In the cab window, where her father usually stood, there was a big, unfamiliar figure managing the lever and throttle. Terrified, Polly sprang to one side Into a clump of bushes.
As the locomotive passed her on Its way up the track she saw that 'the man In the cab wore a black mask on hlsace, and then she knew what had happened. She understood why Pinckney had tried to warn her and failed. Robbers had held up the train and were preparing to rob the express car. For a moment Polly was torn doubt and terror. Had they shot her father? She knew that he never would submit to have his train captured without a struggle.
Should she go to him? Then she remembered her station and the telegraph, and. without a moment's, delay, she was flying down the track toward the depot. She would send for help to Mercer, but squarely in front of the little depot the locomotive stopped, and the black masked man sprang from the cab window and darted across the platform. Hardly thinking what she was dolng. olly ran up on the other side the fireman's side of the engine and, raising herself up, peered Into the cab.
She had half expected to see her father's dead body lying on the floor, for she had heard much about the terrible, domgs of train robbers. Throueh the cab window she see the robber sitting at her own little desk In the depot sending a message. It flashed over her all at once that he was wiring Mercer that the express was delayed, thus preventing any alarm. The robber had pushed up his mask, and she saw him plainly. What should she do? She dared not enter the office, and she, a mere girl, could be of no service where the roboert were making their attack on th-3 train.
If only she had the little revolver that lay In the drawer of her desk! She set her teeth as she thought what she would do with it. At that moment three shots rang out, clear and distinct, from the detached train.
