er, receiving and sending orders. The
running orders of all the trains are di-
rected from this office. Each engineer
has orders to make a certain run ac-
cording to the timetable, unless other
orders from headquarters interfere,
If an accident happens on the road
the train dispatcher knows it almost as
soon as the passengers A breakdown Of
some local train on the main line may
upset all the calculations of the day.
Immediately the expresses running on
that line must be stopped before a coll
hslon occurs. snowstorm may block
ade train on the northern branch of
the road, and thereby make necessary a
enange in the regular schedule
A train from the west is half an hour
behind, perhaps, and this interferes
with the regular running of the other
trains. Arrangements must be made to
let trains pass without accident. The
express trains nearly always have the
right Of way. A western express may
be behind time and start out five min
utes ahead of some special express. In
this instance she must give the special
the right Of way, and she is forced upon
some siding. The special express passes
without losing a minute
There are so trains coming and going,
one behind time, another ahead, prob
ably, and each croWding out another.
The train dispatcher has to regulate
this tangle and keep things running
smoothly. Thus it is that the engineer
of a flyer may suddenly find himself
side tracked.
Should the train dispatcher make
mistake, or fail to make arrangements
for two fast-moving trains, the block
signal system would probably prevent
an accident. The block towers are con-
nected by telegraph lines and bell
code enables the men to communicate
directly with each other They can stop
train at any moment by means Of
their signals, independent of orders from
headquarters. Thus the engineer de-
bends entirely upon others to keep the
track clear, and he merely runs his
train as near schedule time as possible,

RUNNING THE FAST EXPRESS
fFrom St. NichoIas.l


The eyes of the engineer are on the
clock and timetable before him, and he
keeps a sharp lookout ahead. For va
rious reasons he may fall few minutes
behindhand at one point, but he man
ages to make up the loss at another. He
has certain stops to make and ne
makes all speed possible between them.
But he is not master of the road. AT
any moment a danger signal along the
line may confront him. He may be or
dered to bring his train to standstill
at a small way station, and there re-
ceive telegraphic orders to run on a
siding. He asks no questions, but obeys
orders. Five minutes later a Special
may rush past him and then the signals
are set again, warning the engineer of
the express, that he must make up for
lost time.
To understand this delay and the sud-
den changes made in the time table, it
win be necessary to go back to head
quarters and watch the general superin-
tendent and the train dispatcher. Al
though many trains running on the line
are hundreds of miles away, the exact
position Of every one, every second in
the hour, is known and recorded. A
telegraph operator is working dustri-
ously in the office Of the train dispatch

THE MARKET GARDENERS.
Aaron Lowe of bingham Tells How Vege-
tables May Be Most Probably Raised.


The members of the Worcester Market
Gardeners Association enjoyed a very
profitable and instructive meeting Satur-
day afternoon in the library of Horticul-
tural Hall. The speaker was Hon. Aaron
Lowe of bingham. Mr.. Lowe has had
an extensive experience in raising vegeta-
bles for the Boston produce market, and it
was mainly on his own personal expert
ences sand observations that he spoke Sat
uTday.
His talk was informal. He took up in
turn the consideration of each one of the
vegetables which market gardeners are
accustomed to raise, speaking Of the DIFF
ferent varieties, Of the most profitable
methods of culture, and the things that
must be guarded against to secure the
most successful results.
After Mr.. Lowe had concluded his half
hours talk, he invited the members to ask
of him any questions pertaining to mar
ket gardening, saying he should be pleased
to answer them to the best of his ability.
The questions brought out some discus
sion, but it was confined principally to the
consideration of celery, tomatoes and po-
tatoes. The best methods of fertilization
for various crops was also taken up by
one of the speakers interrogators.
A vote of thanks was extended to Mr..
Lowe for his address.

SHE WILL BE PUSHED TO HER
UTMOST SPEED.
Her Usual Supply of Coal From This
Port has Been Doubled--Would be
Great Prize.

The Rio de Janeiro is in danger Of
capture on her run from this port to
the Orient, so her captain and agents
believe, and she will be pushed across
the Pacific at her utmost possible
speed.
She usually takes on at this port
about 200 tons of coal.
This supply will be doubled and
the engines of the steamship will be
forced as they have never been fore
ed before.
Before the Rio left for San Fran
cisco there was IA rumor to the effe ,t
that Spain would send a cruiser to
prey on the American merchant ma
rine operating in the Pacific.
If this is so there is no doubt but
that the Spanish cruiser would make
great endeavor 10 intercept the Rio
as she would be rich prize.
Her cargo is valuable and the big
steamship could be easily converted
into Spanish cruiser.
