When particularly heavy ana uyht.

Wnen particularly heavy and Sight-
~ packed drift was to be tackled 1t was
the custom to place one of the crude af-
tairs In front of from six to ten engines
and charge the drift with flying start
Oh a mile or two. If the drift consisted
of graduated snow frozen into separ-
ate particles, the enormous mass of
iron went through it like a heated knife
through butter. In the wake of the
pow came an army of shovelers, whose
DUTY 1t was to bank the scattered
masses far enough from the track to
prevent them sliding back This was
dlfhcult enough and victory came only
after herculean labor.
sometimes it happened that the drift
in the cut was composed of damp snow
and had had time to settle and become
packed. Then the perils of snow buck.
ing became perils in truth.
The Quicker" with it's powerful mo.
tive force of seven or eight locomo.
tives was hurled bodily at the drift and
one of two results followed. Either
the drift was broken or the Quicker"
crumpled up like a toy of cardboard
The fate of the crew of several men de.
pended on what Artemus Ward called
their nat'ral born luck" Stories are
still told of the catastrophes occurring
during one hard winter many years
ago; of how in one instance quicker"
three engines and fourteen men were
buried in mass of snow for ninety
hours, and that when the rescuing
party finally reached them the imprs
oned men were found encased at their
posts like the baker of Pompei.
To-day there are no such narrowing
tragedies. The invention of the rotary
pillow has made the clearing away of
Instructions comparatively easy task.
In appearance the rotary plow is like
a huge box car strengthened with
heavy iron Orders and plates. The
front end is square and open, and with
in can be seen a great steel-winged
wheel somewhat similar to the ordin-
airy windmill. The edges of the open
ing slope inward and are strongly re-
enforced with iron. The "auger" or
wheel reyolves upon an axle, and as
the pillow is forced against the drift the
snow is eaten away and blown through
tunnels pitched at an angle above the
machine.
1t is seldom that more than two en-
gines are required to push the rotary,
as it works by cutting instead of brute
force, like the old-time quicker" Rail-
road men are great admirers of the new
order of machine, and they never fail
to praise it's efficiency.

dlments and hard bread, enough to feed
1OO persons ten days, are carefully de-
posted in these moving storehouses,
and from then until the coming of
spring they are inspected and overhaul
ed once each week by men detailed for
the purpose
Within twelve hours, if the fall Of
snow is continuous, the plows go out
Each Is accompanied by gang Of
shovelers, and straight drive is made
Tor those passes and cuts where ex-
perience has foretold the greatest
depth. If the snow is moist and f1aky,
quick work is made OF the banks; but
II cold weather has really set in and the
snow has been frozen into rounded
granules, the proposition is entirely
different. In the first case the damp
masses remain where they have been
thrown by the plow, but under the lat
ter conditions it is impossible without
the most strenuous efforts to keep the
gllstening, frozen pellets from sliding
pack onto the tracks. Cases have been
known when comparatively light fall
or snow has blocked a mountain track
Tor forty eight hours.
In the old days when the rotaries
were weapons of the future and the
snow had to be literally "bucked" by
main force from the tracks, casualties
were numerous. The type of pillow used
was a homemade affair-a product of
the railroad shops. 1t consisted Of a
REINFORCED and strongly braced boxcar
as base. upon one end of which was
quilt an iron-tipped pillow shaped some
thing like lofty cowcatcher. Near the
Top the sides we're so arranged that the
snow masses were directed into the air
At an angle.

No More NitrogIycerin Powder.

The manufacture of nitro-glycerin
powder for the use of the army will be
abandoned and the army ordnance de-
partment will adopt pure soluble cot
ton powder, similar to that used by the
navy. The decision for this change is
brought about by an accident which
recently occurred at Sandy Hook while
testing a 6-inch gun and while using
the smokeless powder made for use in
S-inch guns, but with the grains cut In
half. The charge, on this occasion,
gave a pressure of over $4,000 pounds,
which exceeded the pressure gauge of
the gun. Several parts Of the breech
mechanism were injured.

Thirty-two miles of snowsheds cost
