During these preparations the cabin on
the barge was opened and a solitary man
was found within. He had no exDlana-

Perhaps the crowd was too much for him;
perhaps he was only a plain, ordinary
tramp who thought he had found BED of
roses when he struck the old barge. just
the same he was hustled out and off. He
siunk away in the fog.

He accepted the situation gracefully,
and in due time the young couple set off
for the theatre. Arriving George left

removing derailed cars and freight is to
be found in these rooms Along the
sides are a score or more Jacks, some
of them so powerful that single man
can lift to II height of several inches
anything weighing from / l,OOC pounds to
twenty tons; there are also wrenches,
rope. lanterns, axes, saws, hammers,
light and heavy; crowbars, torches,
drills, hatchets and numerous other APP
pliances. Some new appliance is being
added every time the train goes out, and
all new things introduced in the work
are added as soon as they are out.
1t is very seldom that any tool is called
for during the work upon smashup
that is not to be found in the resources
of the car, all of which are accounted
for by a man who keeps record of
every piece taken out and returned.
Upon the arrival of the train at the
wreck the men are put to work in charge
of an experienced mechanic and fore
man. With startling rapidity the wreck
is Strengthened out. The locomotive at
tached to the train is available to fur
nish power in case any hauling is to be
done, and if the engine of the wrecked
train is unharmed and on the ''steel," it,
too. can be brought into similar use,

coaches careful work is required; while

which weigh from thirty-fve to eighty
