engine for a trial run. Hitched to a
car of gravel We ran down the track
about fifteen miles in fifteen minutes,
and then back to Manchester.
When Monday morning came.
George Stephenson and l ran the
Rocket down to Liverpool to bring
back the first passenger train on its
trial trip. Great expectation and in
terest prevailed among the people.
Crowds stood at the dock TO watch the
rai1 depart, and lined the track along
the entire route of thirty-one miles.
Two fiat cars, upon which had been
mounted four ordinary stagecoaches,
constituted the train, and they we're
crowded with people. Stockholders of
the road and men of note among the
mobility of England were the principal
passengers.
1T was about 10 o'clock in the morn
ing when we started, amid the shouts
and cheers of the spectators. The run
was made in about forty-five minutes
with only one STOP 1t was during this
stop, at place called Grand Junction,
that the only sad incident of the trip
occurred. The duke of Huskinson,
one CT the principal stockholders of
the road, saw the duke of Wellington,
the hero of Waterloo in another
coach, and the two alighted to shake
hands. They stood on the tracks and
did not notice a gravel train annroacb

jump. The duke of Wellington es-
capped but Huskinson fell under the
wheels and both his legs were severed.
He was taken back to Liverpool by
the gravel train crew, but died in ten
hours.

train fer twenty-three months, until
became so nervous that l asked George

BASEBALL RULES EXPLAINED,
National League Pitchers Restrictet
in Delivering the Ball.

I
All the playing rules under whicl
the National and American leagues an,
the National Association of Profession
al Baseball League will be governed
during the coming season were care
fully scrutinized at two days confer
enee between President Pulliam o.
the National league and his staff o.
umpires at Philadelphia.
President Pulliam said that the
three most important things agreed
upon were the delivery of the bali to
the bat, defining a balk and when a
base runner is out. In the pitching
rulesthe strictest construction has
been made. The rule says:
Preliminary to pitching the pitcher
shall take his position facing the bats
man, with both feet sQuarely on the
ground. and in front of the pitchers
plate, and in the act of delivering the
ball to the bat ne must keep one foot
in contact with the pitchers plate, de-
fined in rule 8. He shall not raise
either foot until in the act of deliver
ing the ball to the bat, nor make more
than one step in such delivery.
President Pulliam explained to the
umpires that the slightest motion of q
pitcher, swinging or lifting his arms,
whirling on his toes, bending on his
knees, or taking any step, should be
considered the beginning of his pitch.
After the pitcher got that far the base
runner could start, and if the pitcher
stopped or threw to base the umpire
was obliged to decide that balk hao
been made.
A pitcher must keep both feet in
front and within the twenty-four inch
Square. The restrictions on the
pitcher will. it is believed, be of ma,
terial advantage to batsmen and base
runners.
The attention of the umpires was
particularly called to the following sec.
lions of rule Sc:
Section 16, IT, before two hands
are out and while third base is occu-
pied, the coacher stationed near the
base shall run in the direction of home
base on or near the base line while a
fielder is making or trying to make a
play On a batted ball not caught on
the fly, or a thrown ball, and thereby
draws throw to home base, the base
runner entitled to third base shall be
declared out by the umpire for the
coacher's interference with and pre-
vention of the legitimate play.
Section II. If one or more members
of the team at bat stand or collect at
or around base for which a base
runner is trying, thereby confusing the
fielding side and adding to the difficult
ty OF making such play, the base run
ner shall be declared out for the inter
ference of his teammate or team.
mates.
President Pulliam said that umpirine
had been much improved, and gave
figures to show that clubs playing on
the road stood as good chance to win
as home clubs.-New York Times.

OLDEST LIVING ENGINE DRIVER

EDWARD EnCWlSCle, VINO was the en-

George Stephenson, whom he knew,
established his great invention as a
practical possibility.

conversation with a representative of

Manchester, and was Immediately set
to work on a locomotive.

about four years, hauling coal from
the Duke of Newcastles colleries in
the north of England to the seabOard
They had not yet been employed in
passenger traffic, however, although
such use was in contemplation.
George Stephenson, the inventor Of
the locomotive, had no early educa-
ton. At the age of twenty he did not
even know his alphabet, but was an
apprentice in the machine shops of
the Duke of Newcastle. At that time
he attracted his employers attention
by his remarkable inventive genius,
and the duke obliged him to limit his
working hours to eight, so that he
might put four or five hours each day
into study.
THE Duke of Newcastle was largely
