FIRING WITH OIL.
An Entirely Different Job From Firinu
 Locomotive With Coal.

Firing a locomotive with oil is a very different matter from firing with coal
 ''The oil is stored in tanks in the tender and enters the firebox below the door," writes fireman in the Lo- comotive Firemen's Magazine. "A small pipe called the atomizer con meets with the oil pipe just as it reaches the firebOx, which sprays the oil evenly all over the fiFebox, which is lined with brick.
 The fireman has five valves to op- erate-the oil valve. to regulate the supply of oil; the atoniizer, to spray it; the heater, which heats the oil in the tank; the super-heater, which heats the pipes connecting tank with firebox. and the blower, which must be working little when steam is shut off to create draught enough to keep oil burning.
 Firing an oil burner is a very par ticular job. The operation of the oil valve and the atomizer must cores pond at all times with the amount of work an engine is doing; not enough l fire starts Cu engine leaking, and too much oil makes black smoke, gums up | the flues and makes less steam. Tt is then up to the fireman to get down on the deck and fill up funnel with sand to clean the flues. By put ! ting the end of the funnel into hole
 in the firebox door the sand is drawn through the flUes and out the stack. 1 "Firemen on helpers and yard en zines prefer coal, as it requires less
 watching, but on through freight, es pecially on the heavy hills, of is all right. The engineer can drop heI
 down a notch or so. and just as quick i ly can the fireman give her a little
 more oil and the atomizer.
 ''The hardest work an oil burner fireman does is to take water. It is
 not dirty job, either, but I have never seen a fireman wearing a white collar. It is all he can do to keeI

clean oyeralls. The pay was just the same as for the coal burners.
 Tn reference to hiring experienced fremen, some roads do ana some do not, but I think they all prefer to make their own firemen, as they will stay through the slack times, when a boomer Giu not.
 Just ten minutes before approach ed the master mechanic for job an honest knight of the scoop, wearing the reugIation 1000 mile shirt, round black hat and the badge of our noble order, called upon the same gentle man and stated his case, but was told that there was nothing doing
 T was wise to the master mechanic on that particular railroad, and before asked for work I visited second hand store and fitted myself out with long-legged boots. sombrero and bis red handkerchief tail I lacked was. gum, and then I told the master me. chanic my trouble.
 He asked me if ever fired an en- zine. I replied that I had never fired one, but that had seen lots of them. He wanted to know what 1 had been | working at, and I said that I had just l come down from the Panhandle, where. I had been chasing longhorns all my life. I got the job"

was branded as a '.job'' and when cool heads finally bethought them selves that they were there to hold q meeting, the crowd piled into the interior of the building.
 Before Chairman Leyan could get the floor, several more extemporan- eous speakers held sway, and the trend of their remarks being easily discerned as socialistic. Anathema- Iism of alleged "jobbCrs'' was the or der and cries for free speech made scene bordering on riot, more than the cool deliberation of the matter in hand.
 Finally, someone in the crowd, which had grown NtO large numbers, and was composed of some mechan- ics, most of whom had walked out within the past few days, Western Federation men and union sympathiz- CTS, proposed that a chairman be named. This person was quickly sec onded. showing that i'll all probability neither of the men in the foreground of the crowd knew of the selection of Leyan previously.
 Jack Gooch was finally named as chairman and a platform quickly con- structed out of the hurdles used at the rink in races.
 Hardly had Gooch called the meet ing to order, when in stepped Levan, claiming to be the bona fide head of the gathering by right of previous election. The recognition of Richard Arndt by Gooch who now occupied the platform together with Levan, brought out Levan's ability to cope with the situation, and he promptly pushed Arndt from the platform until such time as proper recognition could be accorded him.
 Levan made a neat little speech in which he set forth his claims to the right as presiding officer and in the l few following moments, it was plain that MT. Gooch must be dethroned, for Levan'S rulings were pronounced with greater dispatch than those of his prostestant opponent for honors. a It was Bedlam, little more or less. With all screeching for voice in the proceedings, it was case of the first to get the platform being the one to ' gain right of speech.
 Perhaps the most violent of all was one Andy J. Mcdonald, a carpenter, who had last held the floor at Tam many Hall when someone ruthlessly ' turned the table over in the rush for the doors.
 l Mcdonald opened up with scorch- ] ing of the earthly excrescences" who would curtaii his rights to free speech. A listener in the crowd, a | former machipist for the C. & A., be- seeched the chair to request McDon- aids absence from the forum, where upon he became the target for the abuse of the volu-Ainously verbose | McDonald.
 Richard Arndt, union organizer, and formerly a blacksmith at the Denn, next got the floor end made a plea
 for untramelled thought, begging his hearers to go out and aid the Western Federation strikers.
 Some more of this and vote was ! proposed Unanimously, the men. few | of whom had not already quit work, gathered themselves at the side of the | hall designated for those in favor of going out with the miners and the unanimous vote in favor of the motion was the result.
 For hours the streets were crowded bv men in all walks in life discussing lthe situation, many heated arguments following the views of those on either side of the question.
 Naturally the skating rink adher- ents, the men who voted 10 go out this

MECHANICS UNANIMOUS
 AGAINST STRIKE.
Continued From First Page.)

(Continued From First Page.) every machinist, engineer, pump man, pipeman and blacksmith ill the employ of the four big companies operating in the Warren District, many of whom left their work to be present at the meeting. and took part in the deliberations at Tammany Hall which would seem to settle for all time, so far as this present strike is concerned, their position with refer ence to the Western Federation. This latter organization can not hope to enlist the material sympathy of the mechanics and this status lends much force to the arguments many times put forward that Bisbee can not be unionized by the Western Federation.
 As tending to show the impartiality of the mechanics toward those of their number who had seen fit to leave work before last nights meeting which, it was announced, would de- eide the stand to be taken by them, committee of two, Messrs, Brennan and Oliver, wifi wait on the heads of the mining companies and intercede for the reinstatement of their men who are out.
 At the appointed time set for the mechanics meeting, o'clock last evening, Main street in the vicinity of Tsmmany Hall, was crowded to suffocation. In. the cfpwd were a | large number of Western Federation Men, as we'll as men who had come ! to be present at the evenings delib- ! erations.
 When the doors were finally open ed. such an influx of men poured into l the little hall that the floor sills | threatened to give way.
 It was apparent upon the converting | of the meeting that the Western Fed eration and union sympathizers pro | posed to pack the meeting and carry | everything in a manner favorable to i themselves. owing to the vast crowd which filled the hail and the stairways leading to the upper floor, many oi the men who were vitaIly interested in the deliberations were unable to 1 gain an entrance.
 Confusion followed close on the | heels of the selection of c. ". Levan as chairman of the gathering, in one
 instance, when Andy J. Mcdonald, 2 I carpenter, attempted to Speak, the i table was overturned.
 The creaking of the timbers and the sagging of the floor nearly caus | ed panic, the crowd stampeding to ward the one door which served as entrance and exit to the hall. Quiei in a measure being once restored, the
 union sympathizers succeeded in get
 ting an adjournment of the Levan fol
 lowing to the skating rink after whicf
 the real mechanics, at present in
 the employ of the Warren uIsuIc'
 mining companies resumed then ~ss
 Alterations as stated above, while 10
 cal peace officers prevented any fur
 ther attempt of outsiders to contro
 the meeting.
 At the skating rink, veritable
 mob. it's leader apparently lost in the
 confusion and outsiders to the number
 of several hundred close o1 it's heels held the boards. Several impromptu
 speeches by union Organizer Arnd'
 and others. all tending in enlist sym pathy of anti-corporation minds, were
 made The Tammany Hall meeting

PROMINENT PREACHER
 WRITES A LETTER
In Which He Urges All Men Afflicted with Alcoholism to Take the Mckanna
 Cure.

Rev Harold Govette has been pas tor of the Central Methodist church in Phoenix for a number of years.
 Mir. Goyette makes it point to in vestigate on his own responsibility the claims of institutions of public or semipublie nature. If he finds them worthy he has no hesitation in saying so, and if he finds them smack of fakism he is equally ready to de- nounce them.
 It was in this frank spirit that Mr. Goyette wrote the following letter to the McKanna 3-Day Liquor Cure:
 Phoenix, Ark, Jan. 12, 1907. Gentlemen:
 As one profoundly interested in the welfare of my fellow-man and whose forces are being spent for the uplift- ing of humanity, 1 desire to thank you for the work you are doing in our city fer the benefit of those who are so unfortunate as to be slaves to the liquor habit
 The number your remedy has al- ready completely cured is sufficient evidence to attest it's virtues and to assure it's permanent success. gladly recommend your remedy for all such as it is intended and trust that all who have friends addicted to the liquor habit will endeavor to i induce them to partake of this effect ual remedy.
 Respectfully and earnestly. fSigned) HAROLD GOVETTE, Pastor Central M. E. Church, The general manager of the Mc- Kama 3-Day Liquor Cure is in Bis. l bee for 2 short time with temporary headquarters in room s of the Hughes House.
