a steel truss lowers the rails in advance
of the construction train. In this man.
ner the engineers in charge of the road
hope to run into Cincinnati many weeks
earlier than they could have otherwise
have done.
The machine weighs fifty tons and was
made in Scranton, Pa. 1t Is the only one
of its kind In existence, and its inventor,
Mr.. Hurley, who accompanies the ma
chine. spent ten years in perfecting it
and thousands of dollars on models be-
fore success crowned his efforts.
The work done upon the Cincinnati,
Richmond and Muncie road demonstrated
that a force of about forty competent
men were all that were required to oper-
ate the machine to It's fullest capacity,
and that when conditions are favorable
over three miles of track in a day of ten
hours could be put down without difficult
ty, while an average of over two and
one half miles could be recorded. The
gearing on which the material is convey
ed from the platform through the ma
chine can be operated at the same rate
of speed at which the train is moved or
its speed can be doubled. The weight of
the rails handled include the heaviest
used for standard gauge construction,
some of them averaging 400 tons to the
mile.

Cost Him IS TO Regain His Pocket
Piece After Six Years Absence.

From the Philadelphia Press.
Take an ordinary copper cent piece,
stamp it with a private mark. put 1t in
to circulation and what are the chances
that you will ever see 1t agafn7 There is
one man who says that he tried the trick
and succeeded at it. He is business
man who refuses to allow his name to be.
used In print about the story, but he tells
the tale to many of his friends and he
vouches for its truth.
In 1894, he says, he found cent piece
dated 1893, in the restaurant of the La
fayette hotel. He pocketed it for luck,
and as memento of a jolly little dinner
scratched his initials on 1t just over the
feathered head, while on the cheek he
added those of the hotel. Until 1896 he
treasured the coin, then drew it out of
| his pocket with a handful Of other
change, and, before he realized 1t, the
| the cent piece had gone the mysterious
way of all money.
A year ago he CHANGED being Of a cur
| ious turn of mind, to fall into conversa-
ton one evening with a professional beg

| upbraided the man for getting so much
money for nothing.
oh" said the beggar. II don't get so
much. That's all I've got in the last
hour" and he held up a cent piece.
At that moment the electric light fell
upon the coin, and the business man, to
his anazement caught sight of the let
ters III. T." on the cheek of the face.
He took the coin and examined 1t more
closely Sure enough, there were his own
initials just above the feathers where he
had placed them a half dozen years be-
fore.
At once his prejudice against begging
vanished.
"In give you dollar for that coinW
he cried.
The beggar grew wary at his eagerness
and demanded S. Needless to say he
got It, and also, of course, the cent piece
has never since left the business mans
watch chain.

MACHINE LAYS RAILROADS.
Puts Down the Ties and Rails at the
Rate of Three Miles Day.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
At the rate of three and half miles
day peculiar piece of mechanism Is laying
the tracks of the Cincinnati Richmond
and Muncie railroad. This track-laying
machine automatically and accurately
lifts the ties and rails into position, the
most drugging labor in all railroad con-
struction. II also furnishes the motive
power for its own construction train.
There were stretches of roadbed over
which the construction train moved a
rate of 1900 feet an hour. The machine
utilized was one which differs in many es-
sentials from that which has been used
west Of the Mississippi river. One q the
most interesting features is the manner
in which the material is delivered to the
Toadbed and the comparatively few men
required for the different operations, as
the ties and rails are lifted and moved
from the cars ON which they are carried
to the roadbed being connected and
spiked while the train is in motion.
An endless chain carrier puts the ties
In position, while a crane suspended upon

The population of England continues to
increase so rapidly that the steady
shrinkage In the number Of candidates
presenting themselves each year for or

foreboding. One of the reasons for this
unhappy state of affairs is undoubtedly
the widespread poverty of the clergy, and
probably no real improvement will take
