Switching in Modern Freight Yards
Accomplished in an Econom-
ical Manner.

One OF the most useful contrlvanees
OF modern times designed to aid work
ers in a dangerous calling is the hump
switching yard. Instead Of a shifter
and crew pulling or pushing a car or
| ears over miles OF track, the load Is
set on the crest OF small hill and al
lowed to move to the desired position
On any OF a large number OF tracks,
gravity making .lre thing possible.
The hill is obtained by building an
elevation in the yard. Thousands Of
carloads or sand. gravel or other MT
terial are dumped in a great elevated
strip and walled up on both sides. II
the crest OF the elevation the yard en-
CINE pushes string Of cars. The
yardmaster has list Of The cars on
the string, knows where each one is
destined. The yardman cuts car off
the string and it runs down the grade
and is switched to the proper track.
Each track holds string of cars that
is being made up for some run, and
the train is taken out from that track
after 1t has been made up.
Practically all of the switching may
be done by man in switch tower
built on the crest. He may pull
lever and divert a down-rolling car TO
any track. Some OF these switches
cannot be opened by anyone other
than the man in the tower who works
according To the signals given him by
The yardman who is making up the
trains. The Chicago & Eastern Hi
nois people have one OF the largest
hump yards in the middle west at
Dolton, near Chicago. The same com
pany the last summer has put up an
other at Salem H., where hundreds
of acres OF ground have been taken in
to a great yard
The hauling of coal to Chicago, a
business that has grown to dimensions
understood by few people not in this
line OF business, greatly has been ia
ci,ilated by this plan OF switching.
Southern Illinois and southern lnGi-
ana furnish the great bunk Of the fuel
brought to this city. BY the use of
the hdmp yard and other inventions

is In the mine to-day is in Chicago to-
morrow and then quickly distributed
10 hundreds of tracks.
Many lives arc saved by the use OF

heaped up in the switch yards: 1t

less pretty foot. The first lady of sthe
bed-chamber, to whom the royal will
was announced, informed the mistress of
the robes, the latter told the master of
ceremony, the third blabbed to the ma jor-
domo in chief. That official said there
was no answer, but at $500 sharp-it
was in winter then-all the grand danes
of the household walked into the Queens
chamber. This one knelt down to take
off her shoes, that one undid her hair; n
third pulled off her stockings, fourth
unfastened her dress, fifth took the
jewelry out of her ears, etc.
And with her majesty's kicking, claw
ing and screaming, the undressing brig
adc proceeded gently but firmly and
without saying single word. Only
when the grand mistress of the robe
loosened her majesty's corset strings
she bowed to low that the Queen sue
cecded in scratching her nose-only at
that interesting moment the sovereign
of 25,00O,O00 people was told that it was
bedtime.
And at $3.50 she was actually de.
posted in her bed and tucked in on all
sides, and while two grand danes sat
on her feet to keep her down, the rest
sang litanies and said their beads. After
'''t the Queen went to bed when told.
SPANISH QUEENS HAVE NO LEGS

This she memories by heart, if she
ever failed to remember that a gold
stick of the first order has three but
tons at the side of his knee pants,
while one of the third order has six, or
that the mistress of the robe is privileged
to unfasten her corsets, while the lady
f-the-bedchamber must not hand her
shirt so long as a royal princess is
around to do so, she would be accounted
a failure even If she had the beauty and
grace of Madame Recamier, the wisdom
of Madame de Stael, and the winning
ways of Empress Josephine.
RELICS OF BYGONE DAYS.
Nearly all officials of the Spanish
court hold offices created by the Bur
gundy Princess in the l4th and 18th
century. In those days the King killed
his meat on the hoof; his own employees
caught the fish that graced the royal
board and the retainers', the majesty
was his own candlestick maker, by proxy
of course, the proxies being necessary
adjuncts to his household, as managers,
cashiers and lobbyists are today part
and parcel of Rockefeller's staff. In
lieu of salaries they were entitled to
various privileges, and these latter
the Spanish court perpetuates to this
day, thereby giving work to lot of
noblemen and noblewomen, who, on cere-
monial occasions, dress up in strange
toggery, and at all times surround the
King and Queen, separating them from
their subjects. "The Spanish ceremonial"
then, stands in fact for old Burgundy
court usages, but it must be admitted
that the Hidalgo wonderously improved
on them. The main point: The Burgun-
dams enslaved their servants and officers,
in Spain the King and Queen are slaves
of ceremony.
Everything in the King and future
Queens household is regulated accord
ing to old musty laws. The Queen, for
instance, must go to bed in winter at
$3.50 p. M, in summer at 10 p. m.
