GREAT GROWTH
OF EQUIPMENT
American Railroads Use
Most Powerful Loco
motives Known

CHICAGO, June 10.-How great has
been the increase In the size and pow
er of American railroad equipment Is
definitely shown for the first time in
data just compiled by H. j. Small. gen.
eral superintendent of motive power
of the Southern Pacific company. In
80 years the standard locomotive on
this company's lines has increased
$4,000 pounds in weight. That is,
from 10000 to 1880. and now to $685.
GOO. Tractive power has gone up from
1900 pounds, or much less, to max
imum of 4s,s05 pounds for the heavy
consolidated type of engine.
Beside the locomotive Of 1888, which
was taken as basis of comparison,
the new engines are overpowering
monsters. but so gradual has been
their growth that the traveller passing
the painting giant at the head of a
| train does not realize that the locomo-
tive Of this generation is 400 per cent
! more powerful than those Of rs years
| ago.
Comparison of the Southern Pacific's
old and new freight cars and passen-
| ger coaches show that an equally
great increase in the size Of rolling
| stock has been necessary to provide
for the ever-mounting volume of traf-
fic. The weight of freight cars has in
creased from $4,000 to $4,000 pounds;
their capacity is now 100000 pounds,
as compared to the S0,00O-pound cars
Of few years ago and in length tn,
freight car has grown from q feet to
40 feet.
Travellers as much as shippers have
i benefited by the enlargement Of roll
ing stock. In rs years coaches have
4 been widened two feet and heightened
over 2s feet. Seating capacity o
coaches has been increased from 80 tc
10, and the height of the coaches or
the Hartman lines has grown fron
10 feet 9 inches to IA feet 2 inches
Weight of coaches, which Is gaug
of safety. has been multiplied foul
times, reducing vibration and provid
ing more room and greater comfort
The increase in car capacity on thu
Southern Pacific and other line
means that their carrying efficienc,
has been enlarged much more thai
the actual number of new cars indi

HORSES KILLED
BY LIGHTNING

C.. Shoemaker came into our Office
Tuesday morning and tells US that he
had Just returned from the Paradise
country the day before, where he had
some horses pastured and found that
during last Friday evenings electric
storm which seems to have been quite
general throughout the mountain dis
trict, 10 horses were killed outright by
lightning in the pastures at Miller
Bros. ranch. about four and a half
miles east of Paradise, and seven 9TH
ers were so badly burned and SCARED
that they are about as good as abso-
lutely worthless.
The horses were near the fence
when the bolt struck a post and sliv-
erred it to toothpick sizes. The light
wing cut UP some very queer pranks,
Tor instance, killing the mother Of one
colt, and then again killing the colt
and leaving the mother. In these in
stances a sort of an adoption compro-
mise is being instituted and the moth
erless colts are being provided with
wet nurses where possible.
Mr.. Shoemaker says that nearly ali
@of the dead and injured horses are OF
the Percheron breed, Weighing all the
way from 1900 to 1,400 pounds, and
piaciHg a value OF $3.50 on each would
be making IT very low and conserva-
rfive estimate.
Those who had horses killed are;
Miller Bros. 4; Mcwinis, 2; Hinch, 2

were loss to these gentlemen and the

one in any such happenings.-Anatont

wrote saying that her constant ad-
dressing me as boy made me feel
.displeased. l received in reply a letter
full of reproaches and tears. Among
other things, she said: You might grow
to be as big as Goliath. as strong as
Samson and as wise as Solomon: you
might become ruler Of a nation or en-
peror of many nations, and the world
might revere you and fear you, but to
your devoted mother you would al

A certain class of newspaper men
assert that the farmer is the most in
dependent man ON earth and that h.
has nothing to do but to enjoy lite.
That when winter comes and the
chinook is on the wing he toasts his
feet in the oven and reads the local
newspaper and the only thing that
disturbs him is a call three times a
day to a Banquet of mince pies and
other dainties. This is mistake. The
facts are that the industrious farmer
begins work long before the sun
thinks of getting up. With his soul
shrouded in gloom he proceeds to
build fire with sledge hammer.
He then takes lantern and shovel
his way to the barn and feeds the
hogs. 1t is then time to feed the
newly arrived calf, which seems to
delight in butting pail of milk over
the tiller of the soil until he only
needs to be stamped to pass for a
package of oleomargarine. He crawls
through a barb wire fence and digs
the hay out of the snow, feeds the
cows, cleans the stable, chases stray
pig worth twenty-five for four miles
and does not catch it, doctors a sick
horse, gets kicked by a one-eyed
mule, and when the cleaning comes
and quietness broods over the earth
he has single half hour to mediate
and wonder how he will pay his

and physical endurance of carrier
pigeon is told in Nansen's story of bis

ately opened, and the little messenger
was covered with kisses and caresses
by the explorers wife. After an alb.
sence of thirty months from the cot
tage the pigeon had brought note
from the explorer over a thousand
miles of frozen waste and another
thousand Of ocean, plain and forest.
