Northwestern road on the old Chicago,
Iowa & Minnesota grade. northwest of
here, mean? 1t is construed by some as
a first step on the part of the COM
pany to get in shape for the long-de-
layed extension of this division to
Eagle Grove. Years ago, the c., I. &
M. road was incorporated for the pur-
pose Of building line from Alden to
Eagle Grove. and possibly farther
north and west. This was before the
Northwestern absorbed the old Chica-
go, Iowa & Dakota road. The merging
company now has a gang of workmen
busy on the old c., l. & M, grade, put
ting the fences in shape, cutting the
weeds and putting the old grade in
condition. Others are OF the opinion
that the company Is merely doing this
work to maintain its rights to the
property, until such time as it Is ready
to make use Of the grade for the long
contemplated extension.

Davenport, Aug. 1S.--IoWa lays
claim to the oldest living locomotive
engineer. The eightieth birthday an
niversary Of John Driscoll was quietly
observed at the home OF his son, j. IL
Driscoll, 1744 Park avenue, Saturday.
Mr.. Driscoll is probably the oldest liv-
ing locomotive engineer in America to-
day. Born Aug. 10, 1928, in County
Glare. near Cork, Ireland, he came to
America in 1888, landing at st. Johns,
New Brunswick, after a stormy voyage
of about ten weeks on the ocean, the
ship on which he came over having
been driven out of it's course about
900 miles. That was before the days
of the steamship.
After working five years in cotton
factory at Three Rivers, Mass, he Sc
cured employment driving a team
when the new line of railroad was
built from Boston Key, N. II. At
the age of Is he became d fireman on
the old Hartford and New Haven line
between New Haven, Conn.,, and
Springfield, Mass. That was in. the
days of the wood burning engines.
Mr.. Driscoll was raised to the po-
sition Of engineer in 1852, running an
engine for four, years. In 1856, how
ever, he came west, buying some land
in Chickasaw county, Iowa. Two years
later he removed to Davenport. 1t was
then that he secured employment as
engineer on the old NJ. & NJ, running
to Iowa City, this line later becoming
a part OF the Rock Island He re-

ADD MANUAL TRAINING.
Hampton Schools to Have Two New
Courses, That and German.

Special to Times Republican.
Hampton, Aug. 18.-Our city schools,
which already have an excellent repu-
tation, are to be still further bettered
and bradened by the addition of a
course in manual training. II has been
felt by many here who have given
their attention to the matter, that too
much attention has been paid to the
training of the head, at the expense of
the hands. In the establishment OF
this, manual training course, it is hoped
that the training may be more equally
divided.
A room in the basement of the east
side school house, is being prepared
for the manual work, by laying new
floor, plastering the foundation walls,
and putting in benches, shelves, etc.
Mr.. nj. H. Happ, lately Of Ackley,
where he has been teaching this
branch, has charge of the work, and
the training in this line during the
coming school year will be under his
direction.
The study of German is to be added
to the branches taught during the
coming year, and will be in charge OF
