THE CAR INSPECTOR.
Importance of His Work and the
Great Watchfulness Needed.

Pittsburg Post.
Ii is interesting to watch the trained car
inspector examining a long freight train
which has rolled into the yards. He moves
along the side of the cars and notes all the
wheels. brakebeams, holsters, rods, etc. He
uses no hammer, but has his eyes open Tor
defects. He will stop suddenly, look care
fully at a wheel, and follow the faint lines
of a crack running, perhaps, from the
ffange to the center. Such wheel is con-
demned at once, and the car is shunted OH
until a new pair of wheels can be placed
under il. If there is fiat place on a
wheel which measures more than two and
one-half inches across that wheel must go.
too. Then there may be a sharp hange,
and that must be looked after. A coupling
may have faults brake rigging may have
given out, and all these things the in
spector must take note OF.
He must be an honest man, as thousands
of dollars worth of property and many
lives might be sacrificed in case he neglect
ed something. BoXcar doors he looks at
carefully. They are dangerous things If
they are loose. Many an engineer or fire
man has met his doom by having the cab
strike a loose car door 1t may be hanging
in place in the yard, but when 1T reaches
point where a strong wind catches II, out
il goes. and the passing train strikes ii.
In such cases there is shower of splin-
tiers, a broken cab, and it is lucky indeed
If there is no one killed Engineers have
q dread of loose doors, and are always glad
when a freight train is past them when
they are running at full speed. Another
thing the inspector must watch is the hop
per-bottom dump car If the fastening gets
loose and lets a load of ore or limestone
down on the track while the train Is in
motion Ii makes bad wreck.
Taking all things into consideration the
car inspector is very important man in
the railway service, and efficiency on his
part comes only from long experience and
careful training.

long since suggested to Psychologists and
others the idea that every human being has
a distinctive odor, peculiar to himself, and
which remains more or less constant.
Otherwise how would it be possible for the
bloodhound for instance, to take the trail
of an individual and follow ii for miles
through crowded thoroughfares as well as
through open country and unerringly pick
out the individual from among hundreds of
others? This idea has recently received
signal verifcation, we are told by DR..
Bett, in the Archiv der gesammten Physio-
logic. The doctor states that a friend of
his with bandaged eyes and every precau-
ton against collision, was enabled by the
sense of smell alone to recognize persons
with whom he was acquainted and to call
their names the moment that they came
into the room and at the distance Of sew
eral PAGES. The experiments were varied
in a number of ways, but with the unerring
faculty Of the bloodhound this man detect
ed the identity of every individual present
ed Other instances of similar keenness
are cited by DR.. Bett. According to the
man who gave the exhibition every family
has a characteristic odor common to all
the members thereof, but the intensity of
which usually varies sufficiently among the
various members to enable him to distin-
guish each individual

THE HEN ExCELs.
There Ii One Thing That No Incuba.
tor Yet Devised Can Do.

tor Yet Devised Can Do.
Worcester Gazette.
The poultry show has come and gone.
With it have gone the incubators but
though they have gone, they have left
behind In the minds of Worcester county
chicken-raisers and farmers little germs
of ideas, which may some day materialize
into what will be of decided advantage to
the chicken-growing world
Not that the incubator is new in Worces-
ter, or anywhere else. for 1t is not. 1t has
been used for years by the men who raise
a great mCney-saver. A good incubator can
turn out from 200 to $50 chickens per day
There are no incubator unions; they work
overtime. night and day. in fact without
ing slaves, who increasingly strive to i'm
prove on nature to the end that their
owners may grow rich on their earnings.
But with all their advantages they have
their failings, like all things made of man.
Man. In his conceit and ignorance. has tried
to make the incubator do what the hen
does. and do 1t better. To a degree he
has succeeded; In the main he has failed.
The incubator can hatch more eggs than
can a good-sized flock of hens, but it can
not do the work as well.
The great number of deformed chickens
which are to be found in the poultry
the incubator. Why it should be the cause
of deforming chickens in the process of in
cubation Is question Of much discussion
among expert cf1icken-raisers, but the fact
remains. T. Farrar Rackham. of Orange,
n. J., superintendent of the show, gives his
opinion on this question, which seems to
be the opinion of chicken-raisers.
The sitting hen. he says, leaves the nest
about once a day. On returning she set
ties down on the eggs and starts a move
ment of the wings and feathers which
lasts for some moments. By so doing she
turns the eggs once day. This is shown
by putting mark on the eggs when the
hen is away. Visit the nest the next time
she leaves, and it will be found that the
marks which were on top are NJ longer In
sight every egg In the nest having been
turned halfway around.
Everything the hen does man has tried
to make the incubator do, but here he
has failed. There has never been a con-
trivance made which could turn the egg
or by which they could be turned. as the
hen turns them.

Contemporary points out, men and women
of forty and fifty were always spoken OF

five were looked upon as hopeless cid
maids. A hundred years ago children x
six were supposed to have developed moral

age. Nowadays all that is changed. and the
period OF youthfulness has been largely ex-
tended. At ten a girl IS still child. and at

she is not upon the shelf. while the modern
mother, so far from being decrepit when

looks upon that as a reason for renewing
her own youth. Greater mental activity

expressed unconsciously in the muscles of

ANOTHER INDIAN DRAMA.

Following upon the interest which the production of ''Hiawatha" las aroused at DesbGrats, Ont. comes the an- nounc5ment that "Kawabl's Love Song" picturesque story of Indian life. will be dramati2ed and produce by Miss Mabel Rariow dlug.l!t> r of eX-Congre ssman Barrow, Of Mas. a. chuSe ,tS.
 'Kawaba's Love Song" is the work of Mr. Francis La Flesche, a fun bIosled Indian. son of a well known chfsrtain He is al present connected with the In- dian bureau at Washington. D. C., where h. has been associated With ex- per;s iT scientific research for elghteen years. and faS won the honor of being elected q fellcw in the ass5ca ;ion for the advancenent Of ScIlnce.
 La Flesehe belongs to the Omaha tribe of Indians. and inhalit I Is lite- rary abilities from h:s father who was a very gifted chief.
 The story of the love scng is founded upon facts, and is bas, d upon an old Indian tradition. l. portrays the pr.m- itive life of the Indian. wl;h its wio-d and picturesque dress an.l habit, and lends itself admirably tp the drama, with its peculiar and little known In dian music.
 The play is rather a series or scenes than drama. in the accepted meaning of the word. and is q true story of the Ojibways. which kas been handed down from generation to generation.
 From a historical standpoint as well as from literary point of view the story is of unquestioned value. Among the lit.s whi are depic:al is that of receiving l!ttle child into the triha: When a little Ojibway child is oEl cnOush to walk it is led by it's moth CT to the priest, carrying its firs,i pair of mcooasinls in its hand The child is lett with its spiritual adviser who. af- ter performing various elaborate e. re- monies, puts the moccasins upon the little ones feet and sends 1t hDmc. By this rite he has become a legal member of the tribe of his fathers.
 All the scenes Nre picturesquo and true to life. The Indian drama is to be performed out of doors, and the only setting is q Gepee anu d cluster of trees.
 MT. La Fl5s9he is perhaps the only writer of Indian l.fe who weaveGs his stories from personal acqua ntanca with the scenes which he SC vividly depicts.
