ings. But the noise was feeble. In
1883 an English farmers cart was run
down on the way to market and 1000
eggs, 100 pounds OF butter, two horses
and one man were Jumped in n great
omelet on the rails. The railway had
to pay the damages. The president
sent for George Stevenson, and said
angrily: "Our engineers can't blow
their horns loud enough to clear the
tracks ahead. You have made your
steam do so much-why don't you
make 1t blow a good. loud horn for
u.s." Stevenson pondered. An idea
came to him. He visited a musical
instrument maker, and had construct
ed a horn that gave a horrible screech
when blown by steam. From this
horn the locomotive whistle Of today
descended.
