sion demands. In addition to this means
all passenger engines are provided with
airsbreaks; and their application be-
comes from frequent usage quite as me-
chanical under all circumstances as ip
the previous mentioned means provided.
1t takes much less time than those un-
initiated can imagine to accomplish all
that is possible for an engineer to do to
stop his trainj very few seconds suf-
flee, and nearly always he has ample
time to jump and save himself from
quite probable injury. We who are
daily liable to be subjected to the re-
quirenients know the uselessness of rum
ming unnecessary risks; and how few are
the thanks we receive from our employ
ers when (and they are the ones we are
most concerned in keeping ON the right
side of), perchance, one of our number;
by an error of judgment, suffers per-
sonal injury. If the truth were known,
1t is not. quite freely accepted as fact,
after the usual means to stop have
been made, many good man has gone
to his death by reason of being seized
with a sort of paralysis, and being rem
dered helpless for the time being by the
thought of the terrible calamity to fol-
low. 1t is customary to tell the fireman
to jump, and as he can in nowise assist
in these emergencies, he usually escapes
unhurt.
Occasionally on crooked roads col.
lisions occur so suddenly that both men
on the engine are killed without the usual
few seconds warning, and thenit is Gus
tomary to laud those killed as brave
men who went to their death rather than
desert their posts of duty, while in real
ity the poor fellows had only time to
feel the sudden choking sensation al
ways present when sudden mortal dan
ger stares at us.

Locomotive Engineers.

Apractical engineer says, through the
Detroit Free Press:
So much has been said of the daunt-
less courase'and self, sacrificing heroism
of locomotive engineers, as displayed
during the few seconds intervening be-
tween the discovery of immediate i'm
pending danger and the actual occur
renee, that it has become the subject of
much annoyance to our profession.
During my experience of over ten years
as engineer of both slow and fast trains,
on various prominent lines, there has
never been, to my knowledge, one acci-
dent where the presence of an engineer
on his engine, after certain acts have
been performed (unless as precaution
of personal safety, was not the height
of foolhardiness, and this in justice to
all concerned in the general result.
On passenger train, after the air
brakes are applied, the engine reversed,
and the sand-lever open, the presence
OF whole cabful of cool-headed, ex,
perienced engineers would not alter the
result one single bit, Now as to the
"eagle-eyed hero" who has so many
lives at his mercy in times when mortal
danger stares his train in the face. What
is the man there for, if not to use every
possible exertion to avert impending
calamityp Is it not the intention of his
superiors that he shall take the train
safely to its destination, and in passing
over his run to use every known precau
ton for safetyP We are familiar with
and use daily methods for safety un
known to the public and not definitely
provided for in the regulations of the
company. An engineer who woulC
abandon his engine at the first sight o
danger, without having first used tn,
means at his command to lessen the re
suit, would (save in very exceptiona
cases) be hooted out of the coun
try. From the very earliest stage
in the apprenticeship of an engineer
it is daily brought to his motto,
that the correct and proper thing to d,
in all cases where a sudden stop is re
quired, is to reverse and open the throt
tie, using sand to keep the wheels fron
slipping, and in his usual work on loca
freight trains be has it continually i
use before him, while doing switching
etc. Thus long before he becomes
passenger engineer it is second natur
to him to adopt this method when occa

The Profit Of the Revision.

The question has been asked again
and again: Where do the profits of sales
of the revised New Testament gop There
is no Bible Society or Missionary Asso-
citation to profit thereby, but after pay
ing expenses, which by the English Com
mittee are given as 100000 for work
thus far done on both Testaments, all
other profits 90 to the University Press
publishers, who at the outset in lieu of
the copyright guaranteed all expenses to
the revisers there. The American Com
mittee, however, do not receive and will
not get one cent. Their expenses, not
for labor, but for travel, correspondence,
stationery, ETC., have been paid by pri-
vate subscriptions up to this time. The
profits must be very great if the Oxford
publishers have already sold, as report
ed, 2,000,0 ZOO copies. But this number
includes the 500,0O0 sent to this country.
The different styles are sold cheaper in
the United States than they are in Eng
land, Canada and the colonies, because
of the lack of international copyright
here. For example, the very popular
twenty-cent edition sold here in New
York sells in London and Quebec for
twenty-five or thirty cents, and the high
er-priced copies are proportionally in
creased. IN. Y. Herald. rt -.

thur few days ago. In an interview with
a reporter he is quoted as saying:
Gen. Arthur will go in. He has a good
head, and if he be wise, as I think he is, he
will not make many removals. The cabinet
will undoubtedly be changed, and Conkling
may be placed at the head of the state depart
ment, and Gen. Grant be made secretary of
war. With Grant IN the war office Europe
would need no hint to let us alone and treat
US with unusual courtesy. With Grant as
our secretary of war his name would COM
mand the respect of all the fighting nations of
Europe. When Grant spoke they would know
what was meant, and his wishes would be re-
spected.
The idea of Grant inspiring foreign
governments with respect will strike
most people as being extremely ludicrous.
For eight years Grant was the chief mag
lstrate of the republic, and competent to
command his secretary of war, yet never
before in our history have the American
people been subjected to such humilla-
tions, and yet Grant uttered no protests.
Our flag has been spit upon by the most
insignificant nations on the face of the
globe. and that with impunity. The idea
of Grants name inspiring respect or awe
is laughable in the extreme
