Hurley, Chief Hostler.

Thomas Hurley. a former engineer
on the western division, who several
months ago lost the sight Of an eye
by the bursting Of a glass tube in the
lubricator on his engine, has accept
ed the position Of chief hostler at the
Newton round-house. Mr.. Hurley has
began work and in the future will be
In charge from that hour until mid
night each day. The large number
of engines handled and changed at
this point requires quick work and Mr..
Hurley's business is to see that the
work is done Systematically.
This is the time Of the year when
Santa Fe roadmasters start on their
annual pilgrimage OF "spotting ties"
They are required to walk over their
division every spring and examine and
mark the ties which need replacing
the year. They carry an iron
marker called a .spotter," with which
they stamp all detective ties. An
estimate is then made Of the number
Of ties needed on the division for the
year and when they are delivered the
section men distribute them along the
track, taking out the spotted ties
and replacing them with the new
ones.

idea is to disable Jsffries in about
three minutes. Tom O'Rourke, who
knows something Of rough fighters,
