and considered that this experiment was
TO be made on the fastest section OF road
In New England at that time, ior ~
should not be forgotten that the run OF
the shore Line express between frovi,
deuce and Groton IN those DAYS averaged
fastar than on any section OF any other
road In the east. Well, Charlie Vars
hicthed on 10 the heavy train that an
other locomotive had pulled from Boston
and three or four minutes after O'Clock
IN the afternoon the CONNECTICUT Grew
out of the station and was off for Groton,
81 or SO miles away, without stop, bar
ring accidents. And we had no accidents,
for Vars wasn't that kind OF an engineer
snd the Connecticut wasn't that kind OF
a machine
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1896-06-04

In just an hour and seventeen minutes,
as the Gossiper rernem Ders 1t, the Con-
necticut with. half dozen or more heavy
coaches behind had.covered the 62 or SO
miles that stretch between Providence
and Groton, a pretty good run when 1t is
remembered speed had TO be siackened at
several places on the road where repairs
were being made, including Appopaug.
where trestle or bridge was in course of
repair or construction. And it took some
work on the part OF the firemal TO keep
up the necessary head OF steam for that
rapid journey. Indeed, IL seemed as
though the shovel was in use every five or
six seconds, but probably that is an over
estimate. However, when we had reach
ed Groton and pushed the train in two
sections on the ferryboat the Gossiper
learned from Engineer Vars that during
the run about two and q quarter tons OF
coal had been.consumed. so the fireman
on that train had no easy time of 1t, for
on the return "trip he had the same
amount of work TO do, making four ton
and half of coal he had to feed the
boiler In homeopathic doses I'm little
more than two hours ana a half.

Once out OF the city and in the open
country the big locomotive began to
gather speed and by the time East Green
wich was reac he'd she was tearing along
at a terrific rate. Sitting in the cab and
looking ahead along the track to where
there Is n curve, ones first impression Is
that that the rushing locomotive Is going
straight ahead over curve and all and
into the deep ditch beyond. That's the
impression one gets by looking ahead.
In a moment that impression Is knocked
out of the head in half hundred direc-
tions, for the novice is banged up against
the side OF the cap and is holding on for
dear life to keep from being thrown
across il. The locomotive has found the
curve and has gone round 1t with rush.
Eventually one becomes acquainted with
the idiosyncracies of the locomotive under
is reduced to the minimum. About this
time the Gossiper decided 10 try the ex-
pertinent of holding his breath for mile.
The mile posts in their cleaning white
paint were twinkling past nt rapid rate,
so there was no difficulty in making a
start. And then long before any incon-
venience was experienced or the need of
another inspiration felt, the mile had
been covered and we were well into the
second. Charlie Vars called across the ca b
and the Gossiper could just hear his
words above the rattle and roar of the
pulsating machine under US and the
laundering train behind, "We're doing
better than a mile minute" No one
could doubt that who glanced at the
fieeting landscape outside. il was some
where near Kingston, and the track was
so straight that one could look ahead for
miles and mixes IL seemed.
