The Southern Pacific Company has
completed an examination of its train
mel,, dispatchers, station agents and
section men west of Ell Paso and Ogden
for color blindness. There were about
200. Out of this number the sight of
1913 was found to be defective as to color.
The men found to be affected with
color blindness have been removed froal
their positions and given places in no
way Connected with the running or
handling OF trains.
One man out OF the 1913 cases OF color
blindness was totally blind as to color.
He could not distinguish black from
white. Such cases are extremely rare.
In the examination conducted by the
Southern Pacific, as is the general rule
elsewhere, the most numerous cases OF
inability to distinguish colors related to
red and green. Nearly all of the rejected
men failed to distinguish a red flag and
light from green. Others mistook green
for blue. To others green seemed gray
and some thought that red vas brown.
A competent engineer is said to have
utterly failed to distinguish a red light
or flag.
The railroad company has adopted an
other rule regarding the physical qualif-
cations OF employees who are in any
way connected with the running Of
trains. No one is to be employed with

Sam Davis in the Chautauquan.

The Chautauquan magazine for Octo-
meni:
"a new story having to do with west
ern mining life and Astounding with live,
ly narrative, beautiful description, and
dramatic incident will soon be published
in the Chautauquan as a serial story. 1t
will be written by Mr.. Sam Davis OF
Carson City, Nevada"
The DISPATCH is glad to see a western
writer contributing to the columns OF a
magazine of the literary standing OF the
Chantauc - and one OF such wide cir
culation in the east. The matter in its
columns IL az a rule furnished by men of
national reputation and in looking over
the list Of contributors one rarely sees a
name that does not have prefix or an
afix attached to it, such as Prof, Dr.,
A. NJ, d. D., l.. L. D., or Phi. d. l.. l..
d. In such distinguished company we
will wager that Sam will sign his name
plain Sam Davis and line up in the race
ready to give the readers of the magazine
a good run for their money, for if there
is any one in this country who can give
the world a realistic and interesting re-
hex OF life in the west as it was in the
palmy days and is yet, the editor of the
Carson Appeal can do it. In addition to
to this we will bet a claim in Olinghouse
Canyon to a pound Of Wadsworth bacon
that the reader won't be obliged to wade
through two or three pages OF introduce
tory rubbish in each chapter to get at
the authors meaning.
II Sam would quit shaving his pen for
the Silver party OF Nevada, who don't
appreciate his work for them, and turn
his attention to literature as a regular
business, he would o o make more
money in a year than the best official
salary his party could bestow upon him.
And the DISPATCH don't charge him a
cent for advice either.
