Affection for Engines.

They can't tel just what sort of feeling
it is and why they have it and all that, but
every engineer, every old veteran Of the
throttle, feels kind Of impersonal affec-
ton for his engine just as the cannoneer is
happiest when astride of his gun. He fan
cies that the big thing feels and seriously
contends that the machine is capable of af-
lection and will run twice as well for him
as any one else. He gets sentimental some
times out on the road with nobody to talk
to except this iron maid, and between
whiffs of his pipe he sings, 'tShe's my
sweetheart" or annie Laurie,n while the
throbbing of the pumps beat time.
And he is superstitious, too and always
expects the ''baby" to plunge through a
bridge or do something else horrible when
he has been off on another run fer awhile
This prejudice, it is hardly superstition,
takes another strange shoot. If an engin-
eer doesn't fancy the appearance of a new
engine it is rare that he will consent to run
it. He believes that the ugly looks portend
evil and he takes the safe side Men have
been known to leave the service of a COM
pany for no other reason than that they
would not run an engine which they
thought would go back on them.
Long experience has demonstrated that
engines will run better and easier for some
men than others, even though in point of
experience and all that goes to make good
engineer they are equal. Why this is no
mechanic has ever been able to explain,
except with the seemingly ridiculous
phrase: "She likes one more than the other,
and that is all there is to it.''

A EalGa Alarm

A red haired 10-year-old boy, who was
almost out Of breath from running, entered
fourteenth street drug store the other
day and said to the clerk:
eff feller-if a Teller about as big as
you are, and who has got ear laps on, but
no mittens, comes a-whoopin' in here
and'-
But no one will come a-whoopin' in
here" interrupted the clerk.
Eyes, they will, and he'll be all out of
wind and his eyes will stick out, and he'll
ask you if little Teller with red hair and
a wart on his cheek has bin in here
well, what if he doesi''
you'll tell him he has, cause it's the
truth, and that said we didn't need an
anecdote, cause it was all right"
What is all right?'
"Why, we had some baking powder in
the house, and some Rough on Rats, and ma
went to make some biscuit, and she thought
she got hold Of the wrong box, and was SO
skeered she tainted away. Dad runs for a
doctor, and run fur an anecdote, and Bin
run for policeman, but it all turned out
right. There wasn't any mix.
Well, Bill's cantering up and down and
don't know it, and il he comes in here you
tell him we hain't got to have no funeral
1t is all right. When ma come to she re-
membered that she put the baking powder
into an old shaving mug, and the pilen
into the new can, and nobody nor nothing
need be skeered. That's all, and you tell
Bill he needn't price no mourning goods,

Civil Engineer Young on the Physical Theory
of Music.
The regular session of the above society
was held in the social hall last evening, a
good-sized audience being in attendance.
The programme was opened with song,
"Only Picture" by Miss Lizzie Crismon,
when the lecturer of the evening, D. c.
Young, G. E., proceeded with his lecture
on ''The Physical Theory Of Music" The
lecture was illustrated by many demonstra-
tions, chief of which was the operating Of a
model illustrative of the great tabernacle
organ
The lecturer defined pitch, intensity and
timbre qualities, which all musical sounds
possess. The ratio of vibration between
the different notes received attention, and
the vibration Of a string under different
conditions was illustrated, the principles
considered in length, density, etc., of
strings producing musical sounds being
considered
The construction of the organ pipe was
explained, models being shown of this as
well as model of the ordinary pipe organ
entire, The wonderful variety secured in
organ building was expiated on and illus
trated by references to the Tabernacle
organ. A brief history was given of the
first organ brought west of the Missouri
river, it having been built by Mr. J. H
Ridges in very early times. New develop
ments in organ building may be looked for,
as improvements are being made all the
time,
Clare W. Reid played an organ solo,
1.-THE Queens Lace Handkerchief" and
was followed by Miss Katie McAllister in
the song, ''That is Love-"
The meeting was one of greatinterest.

IN RAILWAY CIRCLES
Important Meeting of the Colora-
do-Utah Traffic Association.
THE COLORADO MIDLAND COMES IN
The Abolition of Private Cars and the Incon.
Feniences it Causes-General and
Personal News of the Rail.

An important meeting of the Colorado
Utah association was held yesterday after
noon in the office of Traffic Manager
Hughes, of the Denver & Rio Grande.
The roads represented were: Denver &
Rio Grande, II. S. Hughes; Union Pacific,
&. 5. Mellen, traffic manager; Rio Grande
Western. Colonel Dodge, general manager,
and j. H. Bennett general freight and pas
senger agent; and Colorado Midland, II.
Coubran, general manager. Under the
rules of the Western Traffic association, it
is allowable for competitive lines in any
territory to make certain agreements as to
rates 10 points common to all, and by filing
a copy of such agreement with the chair
man of the division of the Western associa-
ton to which they belong they may take
such matters as are agreed upon among
themselves out of the jurisdiction OF their
division. The Colorado q tab lines have for
several years had q definite but unwritten
agreement as to the maintenance Of rates.
ETC., between Colorado and Utah common
points, and it has worked well, so that they
do not wish to have those matters under
the Jurisdiction of the Trans Missouri
Freight association and the meeting yes
terday was for the purpose of putting their
agreement into writing in order to file it
with the Western association. Until now
the Colorado Midland was not in the Colo
rado-Utah association, as previous to the
opening of the Grand Junction railway it
did not figure in the Utah business, but
since that time it has become factor, and
yesterday 1t was taken in and assented to
the original agreement which has been in
force between the Union Pacific, Denver g.
Rio Grande and Rio Grande Western for
long time. The details of the agreement
were not all formulated yesterday, and the
meeting adjourned ate o'clock to meet again
to-dRy.-Denuer NeDs.

A Collision in the Fourth Avenue Tunnel.

New YORK, Feb. 2o.-A shop train con-
sisting of empty cars was moving through
the Fourth avenue railroad tunnel this
morning when it stopped. Behind it came
the New Haven local and before the
engineer of the local could see the standing
train he ran into it, the rear cars of the
shop train were wrecked as were those of
the local. In few minutes flames broke
out and to ada to the terror and confusion
third engine which was running without
cars ran into the wreck. the fire was soon
extinguished and the work of rescue begun.
Five men were killed and seven wounded
None of the passengers are known to have
been killed or Injured, the casualties being
confined to employees of the road. A mis-
understanding Of signals by the engineer of
the New Haven train is sand to have been
the cause Of the accident. Four more bodies
were removed from the wreck and these
are thought to be all of the dead, all were
burned beyond recognition, number of
the injured will probably die.

Very Valuable lnrention.

A railroad man has invented new clock
that will be of great advantage to engineers
in running trains. The dial plate and
figures are large, and so are the hour and
minute hands. AS the train whirls by a
station the hour and minute hands whirl
around like flash to the correct moment
and red bull's-eye flashes into the dial.
Five minutes later the red light turns green
and in FIVE minutes more the green light
disappears. The engineer on the next train
following can tell exactly to the minute how
many minutes ahead is the train that pre-
cedes him. The clock is perfect time
keeper, and when the train passes drops the
signal light

A Good Idea.

The Railway Age says: The Importance of
securing pure ice for the use of railroads
during the coming season should be given
due attention. The present method of put
ting the ice in the water tanks means i'm
pure drinking water If unclean ice is used.
no matter how clean and pure the water
supply may be, for it must be remembered
that freezing will not kill the germs of dis
ease which may be snugly incased in
"chunk" Of ice. If pure ice cannot be OBJ
tanned, the present form of ice water tanks
should be changed and the ice packed
water and not mingled with it.

Abolition Of Private Cars,

Union Pacific railroad men who object to
the ablition of private cars, say they are
needed where it is necessary for superin-
tendent often to run out on the line in re-
Spouse to some sudden call, especially in
case of accident, where the private car
comes in handy for the injured or as a
shelter for women and children. Moreover,
when superintendent is looking over his
division, it will be inconvenient decidedly
to roost on the tail end of passenger train,
especially when the dust is flying. No
track can be properly examined under such
circumstances. But Mr.. Clark's word is
law, and things ordered thusly cannot be
otherwise than thuslY.
