Stopping Fast Trains,

Before attaining speed of 100 miles an
hour, first of all we must know how soon
after receiving warning Of danger a train
of $50 tons running mile in thirty
seconds can be stopped. 1t is estimated
that if running at 60 miles per hour, with
the full braking weight of the train utii-
lied and the rails in the most favorable
condition, this train could be brought to a
full stop in 600 feet; at 50 miles per hour.
in l 900 feet; at 80 miles per hour, in 2025
feet and finally at 100 miles per hour in
$500 feet.
These figures at once establish the fact
that under the best possible conditions the
track must be kept clear of ali obstruction
for at least $500 feet in advance of a train
running at the highest limit; but we must
estimate the clearance for the worst condi-
lions, such as slippery rails, foggy weather
and unfavorable grades; the personal
equation of the engineman must also be
considered in a train covering lis feet each
second
Would it be too much to ask that the
engineman receive his warning three-quar-
tiers of mile before he must halt?
The difficulties of arranging for the pas
sage of trains of this character are mani
fest. We are not speaking of special trains,
but rather of regular trains, running as
frequently as may be desired. 1t should
be remen berea that in two hour run the
fastest trains of today would require lee
way of an hour, and slower ones would
have to start proportionately earlier, or be
passed on the way.-Theodore n. Ely in
Scribner's.

He embraced the most pronounced high

above all, to be an essential attribute of
the priesthood, and insisting upon auric-

the highest authority possible. Gladly
accepting parish in the worst of London's

work, happy in his undoubted vocation,
until, by that mysterious power of affinity
between two souls which is so wonderful,
and which completely defes analysis, that
all absorbing, all powerful passion which
is commonly called love. and which in in

that losing her high ideal in this man she
would lose all, yet loving him with all the
intensity Of her nature, she appealed for
aid and advice from the man to the priest.
and resisting the arguments of her lover
she carried the case before him in auricu.

The Word Hustle"

The keynote and countersign of life In
the cities of the northwest is the word
hustle" We have caught it in the east,
but we use it humorously, just as we once
used the southern word "skedaddle." but
out west the word hustle is not only seri-
GUS term, it is the most serious in the lam
guage. One day, as l sat in the lobby of
one of the great hotels in the older pair of
twin cities, heard two old friends greet
ing each other with ardent expressions OF
friendship and delight They had not met
for long while, and each asked about the
others Lizzie and Fannie and their respec-
tive little ones. All Of a sudden l heard
one say:
well, see you tonight, suppose. have
got to 60"
Where have you got to go tor" the other
inquired, plainly disappointed that the
pleasant interview was not to be prolonged.
"Where?" the other echoed "Whv, TO
hustle, of course. have lost ten minutes
standing here talking to you Pm going
out to hustle. Julian Ralph in Harper's.
