1t Looks Easy.

1t is amusing to watch green con-

wire. To a practiced hand it is easy
enough, but to the prentice it is a work
OF o eindeed. One of these men found
to his sorrow that it is not so easv as
1t looks. 1t was at night, and the
passengers were rudely disturbed in
the perusal of their papers by the
lights going out, and soon after their
equilibrium was upset by the car
coming to a dead stop. There was
nothing to do but to wait until the
conductor replaced the trolley. He
tried for some minutes, but the fes-
tive wire eluded him. The trolley
would bang against it in a tantalizing
manner and make a fine display of
blue sparks, but the vexation contin-
ued until the passengers We're becom-
ing angry and had about made up
their minds to get out and walk,
when a conductor of one of the long
of cars behind the stalled one
went to the rescue and adjusted the

The Life of a Railroad Flagman Is a Prett,

NO one knows better than a prac.

Is not the r~osiest, and the responsi.
blllty OF his position only seems to
dawn upon travellers when he has
neglected his duty and loss of life has
resulted. 1t is his duty to look after
the rear end of the train, and if any
mlshap occurs the fagman is the man
who has to answer for it. 1t is not
the most gratifying thing in the
world to be stirred up from a snug
corner in a warm caboose on a cold
night and sent back for perhaps a
mile IN the storm to flag a train. Yet

For instance, a freight train leaves
this city, going east, and is followed
by a second section. When the first
tram reaches B, the freight con-
ductor receives orders to hold his
train. He doesn't know why. It
isn't necessary. He has the order
and carries it out. He then dis

to hustle " prevent the rear train
from crashing into the train ahead.
Very often the trains are running
far apart, OF again there may be dan

the freight. In such case the flag,
may have to wait for quite
awhile until it approaches. If the
train ahead should receive further
orders to proceed, and the fagman is
out of sight and hearing, the engi-
neer gives four long blasts on the
whistle, which is a signal for him to

If the train YER going west, four

But a laugh TO their gay lips came.
Why, he vas a faltow tha scoffed at love.
When the boys used to tell their tales.

And they heard in his sleep there came.
