THE MAN AT THE LEV r r.

How a Locomotive Engineer Acts When
Running Very Fast Train.
The locomotive engineer is remark
ably placid fellow, with habit of de-
liberate precision in his look and mo-
tons. He occasionally turns a calm
eye to his gauge and then resumes his
quiet watch ahead. The three levers
which he has to manipulate are under
his hand for instant use, and when they
are used it is quietly and in order
as an Organist pulls out his stops. The
noise in the cab makes conversation
difficult, but not as bad as that heard
in the car when passing another train,
with or without the windows open. and
in looking out of the engine cab the
objects are approached gradually, not
rushed past. when one looks lat
orally out of a parlor car or window.
The fact is that the engineer does not
look at the side-he is looking ahead
and therefore the speed seems less. as
the objects are approached gradually.
Those who have ridden at ninety miles
an hour on a locomotive know that on
a good road land there are many Such)
the engine is rot staken and swayed
in a terrific manner, but is rather COM
Portable. and the speed is not so ap-
parent as when one is riding in 4
passenger car. where only lateral
view is had. The engineer can be very
comfortable if he is quite sure of the
track ahead. and il is only in rounding
curves or in approaching crossings
that he feels nervous, and it is doubt
ful if it is any more strain to run 4
locomotive at high speed than TO ride a
bicycle through crowded thorough
fares. Judging by the countcnances nf
the bicycle rider and the engineer. the
engineer has rather the best Of It,

FISHING FOR STURGEON.
It IL Good. Hard Work to Pull Ono of
Them In.


Them In.
The fishermen along the river at Es-
sex and Saybrook are now engaged in
sturgeon fishing Few are aware OF the
methods used to catch this monster OF
the waters, for monster it surely Is,
often weighing 500 pounds or more.
The sturgeon fisherman is compelled
to use good judgment and master his
prey when caught, for the fish are des-
perate as well as powerful. The net is
Of the same style as an ordinary hSh-
Ing seine, the meshes being fourteen
inches square OF twenty-seven thread
twine. This thread would not be sur
6cient to hold the fish when caught be
cause of its great strength and shape.
but no sooner is IL caught in the seine
than it becomes entangled IN the loose
Irvine and the work OF landing him in
the fishing boat begins. The fishermen
know when the fish is In the net, for
the seine corks begin to sink and dance
on the water. as though electrified. Two
fishermen in the boat approach this
troubled spot, gradually haul in what
Is known as the cork line and the mon
ster is raised till the lantern reveals
it's position. Then the Ratchet is used
on its head with repeated blows, after
which the fish is allowed to remain sub
merged for time until life is thought
to be extinct. But the fishermen are
often deceived. for the sturgeon may
have been playing possum, as Mr.. Dan
iels and Mate BrOckway, of Hamburg,
will testify. They recently had mid
night encounter with a 450-pound stur-
geon, which, after being safely landed
in the beat. came to life I'm good shape
and proceeded to take charge not only
Of the boat. but of the crew in such n
manner that the frightened fishermen
started their boat for shore and final
" reached it. but neither was able to
tell how. so excited were they. The fish
lived two hours and wasted no time; it
succeeded in breaking two of the boards
and one oar. as we'll as tearing the sail
which was slowed in the forward part
of the boat This fish was considered
one of the most desperate kind of the
sturgeon species, being known as the
"bul1 nose" which does not often leave
salt for fresh water In gone-by shad
fishing days when a sturgeon got in a
seine with a shad it was always sure
to liberate the whole catch by tearing
large hole in what is called the
"bust." These fish are always dreaded
by the shad fishermen. Their time for
visiting these waters is from the mid
die of June to the first of September,
and, like the swallows, all go-Or seem
to go-in one day.-Hartford Courant

stores of New York.
banking department is the latest
novelty in a large uptown dry good<
store. says New York Journal Its OBJ
ject is to be a convenience for the pa
irons of the establishment and resi-
dents of the neighborhood rather than
to make money for the firm. 1t is to
all purposes a bank, although not be-
ing chartered it cannot be dignified with
this name. Deposits are made and
checks drawn in just the same way as
they are at any bank, so that GUS
toner visiting the store can transact all
her business under one roof She can
furnish her home provision 1t. pur-
chase her clothes and those for the rest
or her family. have her photograph taxi
en-, enjoy a delicious meal, buy flowers
for her lawn, take a nap and pay for
all by check drawn on the prOprie-
tors of the store The convenience of
this banking department does not end
here, for when the bars and shutters
have been put up on regular banks
money is still passing in and out Of
the te.,ers window. Three o'clock goes
by without notice. and the fatigued
shopper suddenly realizes she has for
gotten to have a check cashed. This
she can have done as late as o'clock
on other days and 9 p. m. on Satur-
days. Neighboring tradespeople also
avail themselves of this convenience
Letters Of credit to any part Of the
world are issued by this shoppers bank,
and foreign money is bought and sold
there. at the current rate Of exchange.
Passage on any of the Transatlantic
steamers may also be purchased there,
and cabins selected in the same place
where steamer chairs and rugs are
bought

ft Ii Said the Largest One In the World
Is In the British Museum.
The Chinese department of the Brit
ish Museum library contains. says a
writer in CasseIl's World Of Wonders
a single work which occupies no fewer
than 5000 volumes. This wonderful
production of the Chinese press was
pur chased a few years ago for $4,000,
and is one OF only very small num-
Der of copies now in existence. 1t is
an encyclopedia of the literature OF
China. covering a period of twenty
eight centuries-from 1000 B. c. to 100
A. ID.
1t owes its origin to the literary pro-
clivities of the Emperor Kang-he, who
from 1862 tn 1922. In the course of
bis studies of the ancient literature Of
his country Kanghe discovered that
extensive corruptlons had been allowed
to creep into modern editions, and he
conceived the idea of having the text
of the originals reproduced and pre-
served in an authoritative form. This
was mighty conception, truly, and in
its execution it remains unique down
to the present time. For the purpose
OF carrying out the work Kanghe APP
pointed a commission of learned men to
select the writings to be reproduced,
and employed the Jesuit missionaries
to cast copper types with which to exc
cute the printing. The commission
was occupied for forty years in its great
task. Before the work was completed
Kank- he died, but he had provided that
his successor should see the book conf
pleted, aud he faithfully carried out
+ his trust The book is arranged in six
divisions. each dealing with particu-
lar branch of knowledge. The divi-
sions are thus designated: First. writ
! ings relating to the heavens, second,
writings relating to the earth; third,
writings relating TO mankind; fourth,
writings relating to inanimate nature:
! NTH, writings relating to philosophy
sixth. writings relating to political
economy.

prayers for the dead and a requiem
mass are chanted, after which all the
monks form in procession TO follow
their brother to his last resting place
During the funeral procession psalms
are chanted in the mOurnful tones pc
culiar to the Trappist Order. When the
cemetery is reached more prayers are
recited and then the body is slowly
lowered into the grave, not in a coffin,
