slight injuries and are on deck again
The following appropriate verses have
been handed to The Tribune for publica-
ton by local railroad man:
I observed a locomotive in the railroad
yards one day,
1t was waiting in the round-house, where
the locomotives stay;
1t was painting for the journey, 1t was
coaled and fully manned,
And it had a box the fireman was filling
full of sand.
1t appears that locomotives cannot always
get a grip
on the slender iron pavement, cause the
wheels are apt to slip;
And when they reach the slippery spot,
their tactics they command,
And TO get a grip upon the rail- they
Its about this way with travel along life's
slippery track,
If your load Is rather heavy and you're
always sliding back;
So, if a common locomotive you complete
ly understand,
You'll provide yourself i'm starting with
good supply of sand.
If your track is steep and hilly. and you
have heavy grade,
And If those who've gone before you have
the rails quite slippery made,
If you ever reach the summit of the upper
tableland,
You'll find you'll have to do 1t with lib
eral use of sand.
If you strike some frlgid weather and dis
cover to your cost,
That you're liable to slip on a heavy coat
of frost
Then some prompt. decided action will be
called into demand.
And you'll slip way to the bottom If you
haven't any sand.
You can get to any station that is on lIfe's
schedule seen,
If there's fire beneath the boiler of ambi-
tion's strong machine.
And you'd reach q place called Flushtown
at a rate of speed that's grand,
If for all the slippery places you've a good

BICYCLE CLUBS RACE MEET.
Meeting will BE Held Tonight to Consider
the Matter

Tonight the members of the Scranton
Bicycle club will meet and hear the re-
port OF special committee upon the
advisibility of holding a racing meeting
In June. 1t is understood that many
OF the club are opposed to the idea. and
that the committee, while 1t favors a
race meet, viii report without recon-
mendation pro or con.
Last year the club did not make a
profit from its races, although the meet
was one of the best ever held In this
section Of the state and the attendance
was larger than was anticipated The
supporters of racing for this year argue
that the facilities and track at the
Driving park will be better than ever
before, and that there Is no good rea-
son why the club should lose money.

How an Ice Palace is Built.

First of all, it is necessary to have ice
a foot and a half thick. Blocks are then
cut cut about four feet long, these are
built up the same as house is bricked,
except that snow and water take the
place of mortar. The blocks of ice are
then frozen firmly together, and the
structure is in fact one solid block. The
ice is shaped with AIDES, as stones are
with chisels. When the whole is COM
pleted numerous streams of water are
played on it, the water freezes at once,
thus giving it the appearance of being
carved out of one solid block. The ice
can be fashioned into any shape re-
quired. Statutes in ice of public char
acters, ice lions, birds, ETC., are quite
common at Canadian Carnivals.

A Man for an Emergency.
From the Waverley Magazine

A Texas military company were out
on the range recently practising at rifle
shooting. The lieutenant in command
suddenly became exasperated at the
poor shooting, and, selling gun from
one of the privates, cried angrily:
"I'll show you fellows how to shootv'
Taking long aim, and strong ann,
and an aim all together, he fired and
missed. Coolly turning to the private
who owned the gun, he said:
"That's the way you shoot"
He again loaded the weapon and
missed. Turning to the second man in
the ranks he remarked:
"That's the way you shoot"
In this way he contrived to miss
about so r60 times, illustrating to each
soldier his personal incapacity, and fl
nally he accidentally hit the target.
"And that" he calculated, handing
the gun back to the private, sis the
way l shoot"

Secretary of War Asks that They At
tend the Services at Chickamauga.
Secretary Lamont has issued an order
outlining the official program for the ded-
icatory services of the Chckamauga and
Chattanooga National Military Park. 1t
is as follows:
Pursuant To the act of Congress ap-
proved Dec. Is, 1894. the national dedica-
tion of the Chickamauga and Chattanoo-
ga National Military Park will take place
on the 10Th and Goth of September prox-
imo. The veterans, those who have been
invited, and the public will assemble at
Snodgrass Hill on the battlefield of Chick
amauga. At noon, Sept. 10, orations will
be delivered by Gen. John NJ. Palmer, Of
Illinois, and Gen. John b. Gordon, of
Georgia.
The exercises on the Goth will begin
at noon in the city of Chattanooga. Ora
tions will be delivered by Gen. William
Il. Bate, of Tennessee, and Charles ii.
Grosvenor, of Ohio. The evenings of
both days will be devoted TO meetings of
the veterans of the armies participating
in the two battles The complete pro-
gram i'm detail will be hereaft an
nounced. A waterproof tent covering
seats for 10000 people will be erected in
and both night meetings.
1.-The participation in these dedicatory
exercises has been requested of the Presi-
dent, of Congress- of the Supreme Court
and of the heads of executive depart
ments, and invitations TO be present have
been sent to the Governors Of the States
and their staffs. Like invitations are
hereby extended to the survivors of the
several armies that were engaged in the
battles of Chickamauka and Chattanoo-
ga. 1t is obviously impracticable for the
Secretary of War to issue individual in
yitatons.
The act does not make provisions for
transportation, quarters, or entertain
ment. In view of the large attendance
which now seems assured ii is suggested
that all who expect to be present make
immediate engagements for quarters.
These can be secured through the Chat
tanooga Citizens Executive Committee.
Gen. j. :. Fullerton, chairman of the
Chickamauga and Chattanooga Military
Park Commission, is designated as grand
marshal of the ceremonies. and will ap-
point such marshals and assistants as
may be required
"rhe band and one battalion Of the
Sixth Infantry. the band and one battal-
ion of the Seventeenth Infantry, the band
and one battalion of the Third Artillery
all under the command of the lieutenant
colonel of the Third Artllery-will en-
camp on the field of Chickamauga about
Sept. !, proXimo, and remain until after
the ceremonies. The troops will be used
in preserving order in the park and the
protection of public property.
