A TRIBUTE 10 THE IRON HORSE.
An Old Railroad Mans Lament at the
Growth Of the Electric Motor.

the steamboat was to the river said a
veteran railroad manager. Someone had
asked MIN ii he was not glad TO see cleo
trieity taking the place Of steam ia the
operation of railroads.
The business has had to come to it,
he said, with a sort of lamentation III

at those old time pictures with a. much
