to small cottage. Upon the porch:
was seated Z young woman who, even
before the child's: glad cry, OH
there's mamma" had reached his ears.
Tom Bradshaw recognized as Mary.
For a moment he gazed upon the
shadow (for she was but shadow
of the buxom, rosy checked lass who
had left his home six years before,
and his heart almost softened.
At that moment young man In
soldiers uniform stepped from the
room and stood beside the woman. In
stantly both men saluted the young
captain, who pleasantly acknowledged
their military greeting.
The two men would have beat q
hasty and ignOminious retreat, had not
their attention been attracted by an
empty sleeve tapping in the breeze.
To them it was an emblem of the high
est type of American manhood and
American patriotism; sign of toll,
hardship, privation and suffering; a
medal, the highest that is given for
gallantry on the field OF action.
To their minds came realization.
The civil war, with all it's animosities
and hatred, was a thing of the past.
In Cuban waters and on Porta Rican
soil, the chasm had been filed with
the bodies of the sons of those who
wore the blue and the gray"
For a moment each old veteran
struggled with that incorrigible lump
in his throat. then their eyes met
dim with years and the. tears of ten

their hands involuntarily reached out
and clasped above the upturned face
OF the astonished child, while from
their trembling lips came a single ut
terance.

Then, each divining the others

around either neck. Carefully they

child in her mothers arms.

that produced the first overtures tt

about the speedy and happy reconcilia

his arm was standing out in the rain
swinging it in all sorts of fancy genu-
hections, instead of taking that empty
seat \2t the back of the car and max

else was doing? -.
And when in answer to those self
same lantern calisthenics the train be-
gan to behave outrageously, did you
ever try to puzzle out the meaning of
it all? For of course there is mean-

SIGNALS USED BY TRAINMEN.

~ When . train is parted and the en-
!gineer becomes aware OF it he i'm
mediately gives three long blasts. He
repeats this signel again and again
until answered by the train crew by
lamp signal, indicating that they are
also aware Of Whist has happened. r..
When an engineer sounds two short
blasts 20 o. it practically means
"Yes's#in answer to any signal that
the conductor may give. &Fs.fF = = >S>
When a train is standing still and
you hear three short blasts thus

ing to back up and you had better
climb aboard "'<
- -Four short bla:ts means that the
engineer wants information. He is at
tracing the attention of the conductor
to get a signal repeated or wants the
semaphore dropped at the roundhouse
Everybody has heard two long
blasts, followed by two short blasts,
which In the code reads thus: -:-
0. This is when a train is approach
ing a public crossing and is warn
ing to teams to look lively and get
across the track.
Two long blasts lin the code thus
--) is the sound given when train
is approaching stations and functions
and railroad crossings at grade.
: A succession Of short sounds of the
whistle is a warning to persons or cat
tie on the track that there is danger
ahead. 1t also brings the trainmen TO
attention. .~.@~,-.>.:-.;
The explosion of one torpedo is
signal to stop.
The explosion of two not more than
200 feet apart is a signal to reduce
speed and look out for stop signal.

trains except as specially provided for.
For instance, in Nevada and Arizona
the Southern Pacific company allows
Indians to ride on freight trains as
much as they like. There are many
reasons why this is allowed. among
them being that the Indians are good
track walkers and faithfully report
any damage to the rails when they
discover them. Old Johnson Sides,
chief of the Piutes in Nevada, has
been friend of railroad men ever
since the Central Pacific was built In
early days the Piutes rendered inyalu-
able service to the railroad company
by informing them of washouts in win
ter and helping to extinguish prairie
fires in summer.-Sidney P. Robertson
