BEAR IN THE CAB.
sruin Appropriates Colorado q South
ern Locomotive.

When the snow crew OF the South
Park branch OF the Colorado & South.
ern got the rotary out of the slide three
miles this side OF Alpine tunnel to-day.
says Como dispatch to the Denver
News. they routed from the cab of ons
of the five locomotives black bear
that was enjoying a sleep in the en-
CINE.
The five locomotives were pushing
the rotary three weeks ago when
slide struck them and the rotary AMI
engines were all buried beneath the
snow.
The englnemen and snow shovclcrs
at the time the slide came down had
little difficulty In digging themselves
out, but II has been impossible ever
since to extTicatc the locomotives II
is hoped to get them out within tho
next few days.
The engine In which billn WIS found
was only partly covered up by snow.
The drifts had sunk so that tho smoke.
stack was visible and the edge OF tho
coal tender was about on a level with
the snow. II Is presumed that the bear
had his den not Far away and was at-
tracted TO the engine cab by the smell
Of the food the men had loft IN the
engine when they dug themselves out
OF the snow. The men had expected n
rough time OF It and had provided
themselves with several days ntiOns.
but the slide struck the first day and
they abandoned thoi. work
In the engine cab. whore the bear
was. not crumb of bread WAS 10 be
found except In the dinner pail. and
even that the bear had pulled down
from the hook where II usually hung.
The men day did not get TO the cabs
OF the other engines. but thcy do no.
expect TO find any more bears in them.
Prior to the great storm the bears
were plentiful, the warm weather hav.
ing kept them wide awake when the
bear was discovered In tho cab this
morning he scampcr.d OF while the
men threw chunks of coal nj him

cURIosITlEs OF RAILROADS
There Are Many Things in connee-
ton with Them That Are
Peculiar.

The driving wheel of an engine
travelling GO miles an hour makes $50
revolutions minute. and often has
behind 1t a train weighing 200 tons.
Yet the axle of the wheel upon which
this gigantic strain Is placed cannot
be made straight and true. like the
axle of 4 carriage wheel. 1t must be.
in the nature of things. a crank axle:
and 1t may be imagined by any cyclist
how greatly the massive cranks add
to the strain.
The difficulty OF keeping an express
up to time is enormous. Given per-
feet engine and good driver, he must
also be provided with the best of coal
and a fireman who knows how to use
1t. On n run of say 500 miles he
will use at least 5000 gallons of wa
ter. II he carelessly uses more he
will exhaust his supply. Wind has TO
be allowed for. and wet lines always
mean delay.
There are 200 or 300 signal men
to be passed: each OF them has his
share In the punctuality of the train.
One careless platelayer among nearly
LOO who look after the line between
Ensland's and Scotland's capital may
delay the train by his failure to screw
up a fish bolt. The whole train may
be brought to standstill by greaser
having allowed pinch of dirt to get
into one of the many grease boxes.
As may he imagined. only the most
rigid discipline can run a 5O-milean-
hour train to time.
The taunt is often hurled Mt Brit
ish railways that they are expensive.
French and German fares are held up
as contrasts to be copied. The pub.
lie forGets that in Britain n reason
able amount of luggage is carried
free: abroad. none. II fails to re-
member that most foreign railways be-
long to the government, while British
ones are forced TO pay from two to five
per cent. of all their earnings into the
national eNchequer.

ALASKA TO FAR CAPE HORN
Pan-American Railway Which Is the
Greatest Project Of Its
Kind.

The gray plover nests In the hedges
OF Alaska, and when the short sum
mer wanes it leads It's young in peril
Gus flight southwark across plains an
mountain ranges and then, guided by
the coastline, wings Its way steadily
onward until 1t reaches it's winter
home in Patagonia. For more than
one-half of the immense distance OF
its migration, says the Technical
plover is almost coincident with the
surveyed line for the projected Pan
American railway, a commercial con-
nection between the northern and
southern continents that few Year,
ago was regarded as the dream OF en-
thusiasts, but which to-day has passed
far beyond the realm of visions.
Men whose lives are well behind
them will probably live to see the day
when they can make an unbroken rail-
way Journey from the River Yukon,
in Alaska, TO the River Limay, in
Patagonia. This journey from the
north to the south means more than
the travelling OF an immense distance
within a short space OF time, though
this thought alone is impressive.
1t means the passing through alter
nate cold and heat. moisture and dry
ness. bare fields and green fields, tree
less plains and tropical forests, fertile
valleys and sterile mountains, 1t means
acquaintance with men OF every hue
OF skin and Of every habit OF life. II
means the wedding of the ends OF
earth.

HIS PERTINENT QUESTION.
Railway Presidents Little Way of
Keeping Tab on His En-

President Frank J. Hearne. of the
Colorado Fuel and Iron company. of
Denver, tells this story OF the late
Joshua Gentry. at one time president
OF the Hannibal a. st. Joseph railway,
which is now part of the burlington
system.
Gentry was fond OF going over the
lines of his railroad In old and rather
shabby clothes. AT u junction sta
ton one day he climbed Into the cab
OF one OF his locomotives while the
engineer was busy oiling. When the
engineer returned to the cab Prcsi-
dent Gentry pointed TO the steam
gague. which stood Mt i60, and asked;
''Is that all the steam you carry
why" said the engineer. that's
the second time around"
The man In shabby clothes asked
several other questions which seemed
foolish to the man behind the throttle
and finally the engineer turned on
him.
