TRAIN DlsPATCHING.
The Respoasibiiitiies OF the Man who Has
the work In Charge.

people who climb on a passenger
train when she is two or three hour
late little imagine what endless planning
and management it takes 10 get her
through safely. let freight train get
behind time and we can manage her by
running her on another trains time, but
a passenger breaks up everything on the
road. A train dispatcher must be fanil-
lar with every Circumstance and every
possible combination Of cicnri 'ances.
He must know on just what portions Of
the road fast time can be made and give
orders accordingly. iIe must never give
an order for a certain time 10 be made
unless he is positively certain that the
grade and condition OF the weather will
permit of such time being made. To-
day | may order train 10 be run from
station A 10 station b, and another 10
run from B to A, when the sane order
tomorrow would precipitate collision.
You have got to know all the men on
the line. Why, on that road that |
worked on there would be engineers and
conductors that never could get a train
through on time. Then there would be
others that never would be late except
in case of accident Why, sometimes
during my eight hours of duty i would
give 25O train orders. Just think ofthat
FOR moment. Here is passenger train
four hours late and freight side-tracked
at almost every station. OF course that
puts every train behind tine. First
have 10 order the operator 10 put out his
flag and hold the train for orders, and
then have TO send the order and wait
for it to be repeated back. AT the same
time a train may be passing station 5
miles away, where | want TO hold and
side-track her. All this time | mu st not
only keep clear track for the passenger
train, but must not unnecessarily detain
the freights. Sometimes right in the
middle Of the rush of business like this
the wire will break or some operator will
leave his key open. Then everything is
TO pay. Fortunately the train dispatch
er's order il law. Every emplOye is
bound to obey it. So we do not have to
worry about that"
"Why did you leave the business"
Because ] was growing a year older
every week. had the work OF ten men
on my shouldere. You often hear about
the brave engineer, clinging with firm
resolve and calm resignation to the
throttle while the engine is plunging on
toward inevitable destruction. His re-
sponsibility is nothing He has only a
single train and has no duty but to obey
orders and rules The train dispatcher
has a hundred trains under his finger
that presses on the key. 4 moments
delay TO a freight, and the dispatcher is
'cussed.' The eight hours you spend IN
bending over your key seems like Il
week. Your head swims and grows diz-
zy beneath your awful responsibility.
No more train dispatching for me if you
please"

RICE AND BEANS.
The Maximum of Nutriment and the Min

imum of Cost.
Hall's Journal Of II alth.
Half the people of the world live al
most exclusively on rice. 1t contains IS
per cent of nutriment, while roast beef
contains but 26
There are countries where the almost
exclusive diet of the masses is beans
these contain 81 per cent Of nutriment.
The best and cheapest food for the
dense populations Of Asiatic countries,
therefore, is rice; and since, from the
general poverty Of the people, varieties
of food are out of the question, bounteous
nature has given them most freely that
kind which is anongth most nutricious
of all foods. With the rest of the world
rice is more Of a side dish, and is served
most frequently in the form of pudding.
We venture to affirm that when the
cost, the percentage of nutriment and
the wholesomeness of beans are consid-
cred, there is not in the world a single
article of food that can compare with
them. There is no other vegetable food
~
meats While they have so much to rec
ommend them in other respects, they
have no rival in point of economy. A
quart of beans, costing ten cents, will
furnish family of five persons with food
for day.
Much of the value of beans as food de-
pend on the manner of cooking. 1t
would be difficult to cook them too much.
They should be first boiled until soft.
and then put in baking dish and baked
until they are brown. A little salt pork
or butter, but not enough to make them
taste greasy, should be put in the baking
pan and cooked with them. If beans
are not thoroughly cooked they are diff
fcuit of digestion still there is not one
hotel or restaurant in a thousand that
serves them sufficiently cooked and as
a rule it is not well to call for them in
such places; but at home, when prepared

A RIVAL OF THE YOSEMITE
The Foot of the White Man Finds Its Way
Into Region of Unsurpassed Grandeur.
san Luis Republic.

About three weeks ago X. d. Cook be-
came alarmed at the long dry spell and
in company with another gentleman, he
started for the headwaters of the Sis
quoc in search Of food for his stock. He
reports the scenery along the route after
he left civilization as exceedingly grand,
rivaling anything he ever saw in his life,
and he volunteered the information that
he had twice crossed the plains and been
through Central America. After riding
as far as they could they left their hor-
ses and footed it over the mountains and
through canyons, and near the headwa-
tiers Of one of the tributaries of the Sic
quoc they found themselves upon the
brink of pIecipice, over which the wa
ters Of the creek poured with deafen-
ing roar falling distance of 600 to 200
feet. He threw a rock over the preci
pice to test the distance and waited to
hear it strike the bottom, but after wait
ing some nme he concluded it had lodg-
ed on its way down, and was turning to
leave when the rumbling intonatiOns
told him it had just reached the bottom.
The view from this point was grand and
awe-inspiring, and if properly opened to
the public would rival the Yosemite as
an attraction. Fish and game abound,
and to illustrate the plentifulness Of the
former he stated that his companion on
several occasions took a common gunny-
sack and fastened it to a rifle and would
drive enough fish into it while he was
making fire to serve them for a meal
In coming down a canon they discov-
cred red wood forest that has never
before been known to exist in that To-
cality. He describes its extent TO be
from two-and-a-half 30 three miles long
and from three-quarteIs to one mile
wide. The trees were from one to six
feet in diameter and to use his own
words. "there is enough timber there to
fence this valley into ten-acre lots" He
is confident that no other white man ev-
er stepped foot inside the grove, for, said
he il would have been impossible to
have reached It a year ago, but about
that time a forest fire burned off the
thick underbrush for miles this side and
made it possible for them to reach the
grove on foot.
