HUGE COAL BILL OF RAILROADS
Locomotives Burn Many Thousands OF
Tons of Fuel

The bin for locomotive fuel Is me
largest item OF expense for mateflala
incurred by railroads and Il averages
about Ii per cent. OF the total OBJ
Grating expense. The annual reports
~ railroads. which are now coming
ont give a few figures relating 10 fuei
which help in forming an idea 81 tne
enormous consumption OF coal by rall-
roads IN the year covered, says the
Railway Age.
Tins the report of the Rock island
system for the ven ended win June.
| 1905 when ii operated l,21I locohlo-
tives shows that the coal bill was
nearly $1,000 600. On the chicago
| Northwestern for the same PERIOD
when Il operatetl 1s342 locomotives,
the cost for fuel fe.' them was sa'9o~s7
/ 600
| The Interstate commerce comnlls
sion statistics for the year 1904 SHOWS
that the locomotive fuel bill for al
| the railroads in the United STATES
amounted to st59. 0oO000. II we take
the average cost Of coal at sl.5o per
~. which is probably high Tor the
whole country. this would represent a
consumption Of l06000,00o tons OF
coaI The number of locomotives
owned bv railroads in the year l9e4
was 46.sS5. and assuming eight per
cent OF these 10 be in the shop under
repairs. there remain 3750S engines
In service. and this number, divided
into 10e 600 600 tons gives 1926 tons
as the average consumption OF coal
per engine year
Coming now to something more
definite for a single road, we lind
from the annual report OF the Union
Pacific for the year ended with june
1905. that II paid for its coal $3.50,
3SS and that the average cost per
ton was 81 .76. so that the coal con
sumed by locomotives on that line
omounted TO .92S. GO tons. The mum
her of locomotives then owned was
Ss5 from which we deduct eight pei
, cent. leaving 7G7 In active service
this figure divided into the tons, a.
qiven shows an average consumption
ner engine year of 2,5i5 tons.
In the Chicago & Alton annual re
mort for the year ended with June
, | 9os we find the coal bin was sfS4'

ALL ENGINEERS GET SCARED.
Not often, But Their Nerve Deserts
Them Sometimes.

Does an engineer ever lose his
aerYe? Is he ever afraid to take his
rain out on the rum"
These questions were asked last
week of an old-timer. a grizzled vet
aran, who has pulled limited trains
for the past ten years, says the Kan
sas City Star. For five years he has
had a night run from Kansas City TO
division point between here and st.
Louis. He never had wreck and,
to use his expression, he never even
threw shoe"
But" he says, i've given the nail
holdin them shoes some awful
wrenches.'
He smiled when the questions were
asked.
eYou can't get one engineer in
thousand to admit he Is ever scared.
he said. but, just the same, they do
get scared. and they don't know why
A man grows accustomed to pulling

Then comes a time when something
seems to say: Don't 90 out ON that

Big Log Rolling.

Woodmen of the world from all
over southeastern Idaho will take part
in the big log rolling at Idaho Falls
on December and 10. A two-cent
fare rate has been granted by the
Short Line, and it Is confidently ex-
pected that the attendance will break
all records established by fraternal
gathering In this intermountain
region. Three hundred candidates
will be initiated into the mysteries
of the order. Pocatello, Idaho Falls,
Blackfoot, st. Anthony, Rexburg,
Sugar City, Rigby, Marysville, Menan,
Market Lake, Arco, Kilgore, Shell
ley and all points up the line will
send noviates.
Contrary to usual custom, the
camps have decided to take the gen.
eral public into their confidence, and
portion of the adoption ceremony
will be performed, not merely in pub
lie, but out in the open air, where
all who will may view it, without let
or hindrence. The ceremonies will
be in charge of Col. J. A. Eggers, dis
trict deputy for Is counties in south
ern Idaho. The colonel has been WIS.,
iting the various camps in this Sec
ton, assisting and encouraging them.
The Woodmen's band of St. An
thony, and the Woodmen's band of
Arco, will attend, and possibly other
