AN ENGINEERS LIMITATIONS.
The Terrible Strain In Running the Fastest
Express Trains.

Cleveland Moffett tells in the October
st. Nicholas the story of the locomotive
driver. There followed some talk about
fast runs, and all agreed that for out
aDd-out excitement there is nothing in
railroading to equal q mans sensations
in one of those mad bursts of speed that
are yentured upon now and then by loco
motives in mountaineering trials. The
heart never pounds with apprehension in
a real accident as it does through immi-
nent fear of an accident. And so great
is the nerve-strain and brain-strain upon
the men who drive our ordinary hiers
that three hours at stretch is as much
as the stanchest engineer can endure run
ming at 80 or 80 miles an hour. And the
same is true of firemen, and, indeed, of
locomotives, so that the fast mail and ex
press service between New York and Chi
cago requires relays of IA engines and II
engineers and IA fremen for a single
round trip of single train. And many
time, it appears, when an ngineer has
faced the rush of one of these terrible
fiers to the end of his relay, say, $50
miles, you will sometimes see him climb
down from the cab weak and unstrung.
He has been under tension there at the
throttle like that of an athlete Springing
from the high trapeze, or that of a pilot
as he turns his craft into some furious
rapids, only his tension has lasted for
hours. What wonder, then, that three
days are counted full weeks work for
the men who drive such trains as the EN-
pire State ExpressI Every alternate day
they must spend in resting, and even so
it is only the flower of a company's en-
gineers who can stand the strain at all.
so you see," said one of the officials,
the problem of higher speeds than we
have at present involves more than boiler
power and strength of machinery and the
swiftneSs of turning wheels; it involves
the question of human endurance. We
can build engines that will run $50 miles
an hour, but where shall we find the men
to drive them? Already we have nearly
reached the limit of what the eyes and
nerves will endure. l think wen have to
ind new race of men to handle these
locomotives of the future that they talk
so much about"

"Faking War News to Fool the spaniards

Capt. Bartlett describes in the October
Century the coast signal service system
organized to keep watch for Spanish cruis-
ers, and incidentally gives bit of secret
service" information.
The reporters almost mobbed the office
for news; but l was dumb to all entreat-
les, and the news that we received,
which was of great value in many in
stances, was known only to the Secre-
tary and the War Board, and never be-
came public. Some of the asst )unding
movements or intentions of the Spanish
fleets was brought to me by reporters,
having been received, as they said. from
most reliable authorities Sometimes
would say that their news was all wrong,
and they would go away disappointed, but

that we carry the same game into the
enemy's country, and after preparing a
statement that it was the intention of the
Department to send several vessels to
Spain to attack unprotected ports, | sub
mitted 1t TO the Secretary, and, with his
approval, got it into Madrid as a secret
purpose of this Government. 1t was
taken as genuine, and the Spanish imme-
diately began sending troops to the sea-
coast towns, and TO fortify many. The
excitement and CONSERVATION in Spain
quite equaled what our own coast had
gone through at an earlier date The
fake news worked so well that, as a Sc

BATTLE OF STONE RIVER.
We entered upon the last day of the
year not only in great discomfort but
also in greatest peril. Directly in front
of our little force of detached regiments
two-thirds of Bragg's army had gath
cred during the night, and only waited for
the first gray streaks of morning to burst
upon us. We had no knowledge of this
danger, and evidently our officers had no
such expectation. No sort of preparation
was made for such an event. Why did
not we keep ourselves warm during the
night with pick and shovel constructing
breastworks? Why were not our reGi-
ments and brigades joined together in
line, instead of being detached and iso-
lated without knowledge of each others
location? At the very time we should
have exercised the greatest vigilance we
were building fires and making coffee, for
such permission had been granted just be-
fore daylight. One-half Of the battery
horses were unhitched and taken to the
creek for water A brigade commander
and several regimental commanders were
absent from their posts, in attendance at
Gen. McCook's headquarters to receive or
ders for the day.
AS for myself, the comfort of warming
chilled fingers and toes and drinking
cup of hot coffee outweighed for the mo-
ment any consideration of danger. Next
my curiosity asserted itself, and while my
comrades were still slipping their coffee, /
leisurely walked out into the field toward
the picket line, where a company of our
regiment was stationed to watch the en-
envy. Before reaching them l saw one

As all was so quiet. not n shot having

breastworks were in view, and there, sure
enough, was the confirmation of the
picket's report. a succession of long lines

us, but not yet within gunshot range.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN'S CASKET.
The 18Th Removal of the Precious Remains
Found in Good Preservation.


Sept. 26 Abraham Lincoln's casket was
opened at Springfield, Ill. Eighteen per-
sons gazed upon the features of the long
dead first martyred President and great
emancipation, and then the casket holding
all that was mortal of the honOred dead
was finally laid away for the 18th time
+ Previously the casket had been removed
from its resting place II times, while this
made the 18th. Each removal was
thought to be the last. Now, it is de-
clared, there can never again be an oc-
casiOn for disturbing the resting place.

a hinge block of cement beneath the tomb
of the Lincoln Monument in Oak Ridge
Cemetery.
After a short meeting of the Monument
Commissioners at the StatehOuse, word
was quietly sent to those who were ex-
pected to be present, and the entire party
assembled at the monument. A con-
ference followed in the memorial hall of
the monument, and the matter of opening
the casket to the light of day was dis
cussed. Some of those present stated that
they did not care to look upon the remains,
but those who favored the proposition in
sisted that 1t was not a matter of wishes

matter of record for all time to come.
Under this persuasion the wooden box con-
tanning the casket and remains was car
ried from the north side of the monument
to Memorial Hall, on the south side Here
the casket was opened, and the features
were gaZed upon by those who had seen
them before for the purpose of identified

state of preservation. The easket was
then resealed and to1signed to the place

wILKINsoN'S CROSSROADS.
Dec. % our entire army moved forward
into position nearer the enemy. The ad-
vance of our wing was led by Stanley
Cavalry, which met with strong resistance
by the enemy's cavalry, resulting in Sc
we're Skirmish at Wilkinson's Crossroads,
where a brigade of infantry had to be
called on for aid to dislodge them.
Our regiment, on leaving camp, marched
back through Triune about 4 mile and
turned to the right on a dirt road, which
was very rough and caused great delay
to our supply wagons moving ahead of us,
so that It was nearly midnight when we
reached Wilkinson's Crossroads, the scene
of the days skirmish, and encamped in n
large, open field a distance of II miles
from our starting point.
During this march we were greatly IA
tigued by the roughness of the road and
having to be on our feet such long hours.
The wagons ahead of us would start or
stop in frequent but irregular intervals of
time, and we had TO follow them in the
same way. Sometimes the halt would be
for a few moments only, again half an
hour or more would be consumed. We
could not calculate in advance how long it
would be, and were always undecided
whether to remain standing in the road or
to find a seat on the roadside, or even to
look for a friendly tree to lean against.
After night set it, and it was pitch
dark, our trials began. As for myself, /

Trotters VS.. PAGERS,

The whole question between trotters
and PAGERS is very interesting. | suppose
there is no doubt which is the handsomer
gait. But pacing has its advantages 1t
is easier for the animal 1t is sometimes
said that pacing is the device for short
bodied horses to prevent interfering. A
PAGER advances both legs on the same side
at once. so that his fore leg is out of the
way when he advances his hind leg. A
trotter does just the reverse. He ad-
yances at the same time the fore and hind
may be in the way when he advances his
hind leg But l do not see that PAGERS
are shorter bodied than trotters. A short
bodied horse is likely to avoid interfering
by resOrting to the ugly device of going
wide behind. My belief is that pacing is
the expedient of the animal to lessen the
shock of the resistance Of the hard ground
as he increases his speed. As n matter
of fact pacing is not so hard on horses as
trotting. l said to blacksmith in a West
ern town, a devout man whose prayers
and exhortations Ihhad heard at the vii
lage prayer-meeting. and in whose shop, q
pleasant retreat cooled by some umbrage-
Gus naples, l loved 10 pass the morning
hours; very nice fellow, from whom /
thought 1 got the rehl truth little
straighter than from anyone else in the
neighborhood: Now this is a great coun-
try for harness-horses,, land you shoe most
of the horses about here and ought to
know their feet better than anyone else,
which do you say, last the longest, the
feet of the trotters or the PAGERS" He
said, Undoubtedly, the PAGERS"
The pacing habit lis common among ami
mails. Many animals pace-cattle, for in
stance: and, among dogs, settlers. l think
you will observe that woman, when run
ming for a street-car, usually PAGES, al
though this is probably due to a sense that
it is the more feminine and modest
method Of progression. I believe pacing
to be a rather more natural gait than trot-
ting. Trotting, as it exists in our fast
horses, is scarcely a natural gait, but is
rather the result Of breeding and educa-
ton. Trotting is fast walking, and it is
not natural that horse should walk at
the rate of mile in two minutes and
some seconds. The natural chunge, when
increasing speed, Is to run, the next
most natural to a pace.-October Scrib-
ner's.
