THE RAILROAD FIREMAN.
Building a Fire In q omo IL
Not an Easy Job.

Not an Easy job.
The average citizen to set
the house in an uproar every time he
has TO make a fire in the heater. but
his job is a trifie in comparison with
what a railroad fireman faces when a
new fire has to be uilt in a ocomo-
tive. As a starter about o pounds of
wood are necessary to fire up the or
binary engine. The wood used is old
railroad ties cut into convenient blocks.
When the fra box has been lined with
wood it Is drenched with oil, and the
match is applied.
As soon as the fire gains Roadway
forced draft is applied. the operation
necessary being performed in the
roundLouse. where all apparatus for
quickly producing high temperature is
at hand. When a good bed of blazing
wood has been produced the fireman
gets busy with his shovel. placing coal
in even layers over the flames. This
part of the work is hard on the back.
and Ii agsrieved Individual whose
woes are evident to the whole block
when he labors with the heater would
go down and out in the first minute at
1t. Under the forced draft it is only a
few minutes before the coal has been
reduced to Il sheet of emberS at white
heat. and by this time there is enough
steam pressure generated to permit of
the locomotive being moved under its
own power.
Continuous resort to the shovel on
the part of the fireman does the rest
1t is only about once a month that a
new fire is built in d locomotive while
in service. The balance of the time the
fire is kept allght by being banked
when the iron horse is not on the road.

1t would De curious to know what
mystic meaning our forefatherS at
tached tt the simple act of combing
the hair. We learn from old church
records that the hair of tue priest or
bishop was combed several times dur
ing services by one of the inferior cler-
gy. but what such a queer proceeding
signitied no one knows The comb is
also mentioned as one of the nipple
ments used during high mass, but only
when sung by Il bishop. Mass combs
of the precious metals are still reckon
ed as the most valuable possessions of
some European churches. though they
are of no use in modern ceremonies.
Besides the gold and silver combs the
poorer churches had them of worry,

From sundry references in old leg

houses on the seaside at Wachapreague

VINALHAVEN GRANITE.
The Changes in the Business and the Way
1t Is Handled.

The granite business at Vinalhaven
has been very dull for the past two
months but is now picking up. The
Bodwell Company have about 200 men
at work and most Of them are natives.
This company never employs foreign
labor unless compelled to by an exceed
ing rush.
New compressed air plants have
been installed at the Sands and Pal
mer quarries on the island and at
Spruce Head. These plants run the
stone cutting machines, hosting en-
gines in quarries and the plug drilling
machines. The air plants mean a
great saving of labor. At the Sands
quarry alone, the new plant does away
with three boilers and large number
of men. Each one of the plug drill
ing machines does the work of five
men. Such is the way inventions mark
the way Of progress.
This company is now getting out
stone for the New York docks, new
bank in Chicago, and for the Altman
dry goods block in New York.
The company has erected a new ma
chine shop, about $50 feet long, near
the wharf. Charles Littletield has
charge of. shop No. l and Frank Little
field of shop No. ?. W. A. Whidden has
charge of the other shop, which is used
for wheelwright and carpentering
purposes. Alongside this shop are the
new surfacing machines, eight OF them,
for smoothing the surface Of big stones.
Another big improvement the COM
pany is about to make is the construc-
ton of new wharf, permission for
which has been obtained from the town
and government. The cove, from the
steamboat wharf to the end Of Smith
Point is to be filled in with refuse
stone, topped off with granite slabs,
which will give water frontage of 500
feet. This new wharf will allow the
loading of the largest vessels, as there
will be depth of from 30 to 35 feet OF
water at high tide and from 20 to 25
feet at low tide. Modern hosting ap-
paratus will be used on the new wharf.
The work of construction will soon
begin.
