THE ENGINEERS WORK.

The presence OF mind of Engineer Jo-
sepn c. Bywater prevented a disastrous
wreck on the Rio Grande Western at
the edge of the Park city yards OF
Wednesday. In the face OF danger BY
waters presence of mind did not de-
sert him. With his engine running at
. rapid rate. with only eighty feet
between it aud the open switch that
meant a catastrophe, Bywater's mind
worked as clearly as If such incidents
were all i'm the days work.
He w'histled for brakes. put on the
emergency brakes, reversed his engine,
called TO the fireman to jump and then
jumped himself That the fireman, as
we'll as all the passengers. was not
saved was not the fault OF Bywater.
Poor Edgar lost his life in spite OF the
warning. but the passengers escaped
without more than a bad shaking up.
i Bywater had not kept his nerve
many lives might have been lost.
There Is nothing spectacular about
the performance. The engineer did only
his duty. Tho emergency arose and he
was equal to IL. As he lies in the
broken bones to knit it probably does
not occur to him that he did anything
unusual. anything the average locomo-
live engineer would not have done. His
SORROW for the death OF his longtime
cab comrade undoubtedly occupies his
mind to the exclusion Of all other
thoughts Nevertheless, this engineer
Is man worth tying to, as any man
who does his duty in an emergency is
worth tying TO.
And Bywater is not an exception. for
which fact all who ride on American
railroads may give devout thanks. II
nc had not kept his nerve. if he had for
gotten one OF the vital things. he would
have beeen an exception in the ranks
o. American locomotive engineers. Cool.
clear-headed. alert men that they are.
until an occurrence Of this character is
brought directly into the range of our
vision we do not give them the appre-
citation they deserve.
Hundreds of thousands Of lives are
placed every day in this country in
the hands of the man i'm blue overaIIs
and jumper who holds the throttle.
Let him relax his vigilance for a mo-
nent. let him become confused in a
time OF need, and there goes clicking
over the wires d call for the wreckinE
crew and the doctors. Fortunately. he
doesn't lose his head often. and because
OF that he doesn't get the credit he
should have.

PUMP COLLECTOR BUMP.

Duane Bump. collector Of customs at
Charlotte. y. y, .ou Lake Ontario,
doesn't seem To- know that the Revo-
lutiOuary war is over. OH the Fourth
OF July Bump had quite row with
an English captain who hoisted large
Union Jack over his vessel. the Acacia
Collector Bump considered this action
an insult to the United States and so
informed the captain.
The latter insisted that he had a
perfect right to fly his country's flag
ST he. wanted to and declared he would
shoot Bump il the collector attempted
to board the Acacia and haul down the
flag. Bump thereupon threatened to
refuse clearance papers to the captain
and the flag came down. Then the cap

minister OF marine. and so We are ike

PERPETUAL MOTION.

The perpetual motion crank has been
heard from again. His name is II. b.
Adler of st. Joseph, Missouri. BY a
continuance that is said to consist of
spirals and balls Adler claims he has
solved the problem of perpetual mo-
ton. His machines will run right along
forever, he says, without attention of
any sort lie doesn't seem to con-
slider the fact that some day the spiraIs
VIII wear out that the balls will be-
come particles of dust. Then what
becomes of his perpetual motion?
There is hardly an insane asylum in
the country that does not contain at
least one perpetual motion crank Men
become possessed with the idea that
they can solve the unsoIvabIe and the
descent from partial to complete lunacy
IS rapid. IL does not require the testi-
mony of experts to convince the aver
age citizen that there is no such thing
as perpetual motion as devised by man.

IT must wear out. This is as inevitab bic

instant. 1t is a pity that men of real
talent waste time on such work Their

MAsATcH DRIVE ASSURED.

The people are to be congratulated on
the fact that there were enough public
spirited men in the council 10 pass a
resolution apprOpriating $500 for d
bridge across city creek in aid of the
new Wasatch drive. The resolution
was not passed without acrimonious
debate, much of which we freely con-
fess we fail TO understand.
Just how there can be what Mr.. Hob
day called cheap politics" in a propo-
sition to further project of great pub
lie interest is beyond us. Mr. Martin
found in 1t the cheapest kind of po-
JiticaI buRcombe." Such buncombe, we
are inclined to believe. Mr. Martin is
quite familiar with from almost con-
slant personal use, but how he could
find 1t in the driveway is a mystery
which he would doubtless have difficulty
an clearing.
However, on the principle that sails
we'll that ends We'll" the councilmen.
sncluding Mr., Black, the sase from the
Fifth. who opposed the proposition,
may be let off with "a warming.
Now it is up TO the Commercial club,
tho city having shown It's good faith.
Ia raise the money it has promised for
the driveway, II should not be difficult
for an organization of the Commercial
clubs power and standing TO raise this
sim 4 dozen members OF the club
could contribute it without missing the
money Within that public spirited
membership there will doubtless be
keen interest i'm the question. and by
the time the FIRST ceoI days Of the fall
come We Will have another everlasting
monument 10 the usefulness of the
CoHlmercial club.

HEALTH IN PANAMA.

The stories brought out of Panama
by George G. Matlock OF the govern
ment service, and Miss Robinson, a
nurse, indicate that something has been
concealed down there. II is but a lit
tie while since there were glowing re-
ports regarding conditions on the 18TH
mus We We're told that disease and
death had been conquered; that. while
there was some sickness. it was of an
incOnsequential character.
Now Mr. Matleck says that measles.
black measles. yellow fever. smallpox,
chagres fever and malaria are prevail
ing. He says there was one case of
bubonic plague. and adds: "The dead
trains run from Colon to Monkey Hill,
mile and a half south of Colon. al
ways once, and sometimes as many as
fourteen times day, and they some
times have as many as four coffins
aboard. IN fact, there is so much yell
low fever about that they keep ten
graves always ready for cases of emer-
gency."
Miss Robinson declared that sickness
was increasing and that conditions
generally We're becoming worse OF
course the statements made by Mr.
Matlock and Miss Robinson will be Of
hcially denied. We will be again Civ
en- information such as would lead us
u surmise that the climate on the 18TH

lions are all they should be. II is in

eVitable that there should be a great
deal of sickness. But, with all the i'm
