The IRON HoRsE.-A day or two
since 4 team heavily loaded with wood
in crossing the railroad switch in
Crown Point ravine got stalled. par
TALLY by a mud hole at the side Of the
track and principally by the team
baking. The wagon-tongue and one
forward wheel was upon the track, but
further progress was at an end. About
this time the locomotive Humboldt,
Charley Mccormick commander, came
backing down the switch to get a lot
of loaded ore cars standing ut the
Yellow Jacket dump. After waiting
awhile for these balky horses to get
through folding. Charley proposed to
hitch his big Iron horse to the load.
This was soon done by the aid OF a big
rope. and the wagon standing in a ia
yorable position-a little "quarter-
ing"-a gentle surge ahead Of the loco
motive brought the wagon bullying
across the track all right and clear OF
difficulty. Charley's horse is no balEy
mustang.
