Railway surgeons are learning many
new facts in regard to the physical re-

J. X. Matson of Chicago at the Southern.
Recently the railway surgeons of
the United States held a national con-
vention in Chicago, and one night |
heard al interesting chat in the lobby
of a hotel by some of them. The uni
versai opinion among them was that it
is just as important that the ears Of
railroad employees and particularly
the ears OF locomotive engineers, should
lie scientifically tested for natural or ac-
quired defects as that their eyes should
be tested for possible color blindness.
Whistle deafness is now a common
disease among railroad employees.
Many a railroad accident could be traced
the truth were known This disease
makes the oar Of a locomotive engineer
sensitive 10 the sounds by which he is
Immediately surrounded, but entirely
deal to sounds of ell other kinds.
THE same condition is often OBJ
served among boiler makers, who can
hear slight noises when the air is laden
with the clatter Of hammers upon iron
plates. while they are insensible to the
same sounds in quiet surroundings. Lo-
com olive engineers sometimes have de-
fective ears that can detect slight sounds
indicating imperfect working Of the ma
chinery. even while the bell is ringing
or the whistle blowing or both are in
use. A locomotive engineer thus afhict-
ed should be relieved Of duty for awhile
until the ear has recovered its normal
condition. enabling IL 20 discriminate
