A.-Y.-P.

SEATTLE, June 2S.-Standing side

chinery hall of the Alaska Yukon
Pacific exposition are two locomotives,
one ten times the size Of the other;
the smaller one is the first ever used
on western railroad. the other is the
largest locomotive in the world today.
With the smaller engine is connect
ed an interesting history which covers
the history of the railroads of the
west. 1t was built in 1861 and was
first used on the St Paul & Pacific
railroad in 1864. Out of this little
system has grown the Great Northern.
1t is wood burner and weighs but
% tons. 1t will haul 100 tons of
freight, or a weight equivalent to one
standard Pullman car. This engine is
said to be dear to the heart of J. j.
Hill, the famous railroad president
The mammoth locomotive at the
side of it weighs Psi tons or over half
a million pounds. 1t will haul a mile
of loaded freight cars 1t is of the
Mallette type of compound articulat-
ing engine. This type is jointed SO
that it can be operated on the curved
tracks of western railroad. The fire
box is by 10 and feet high, large
enough to put the furniture of a room
in. By curious coincident the num-
Der of this engine on the Great North
ern railroad is 1903" That Of the
smaller is "one."

By j. f. NESSLY in The Evergreen

| was sitting at my desk in the adj
torial office of the Oakesdale Sun, at
Oakesdale, Wash, one cold day in
November. 1891, when a little boy
came in and asked, DO you want that
wood carried up from the sidewalk ?"
On being answered in the affirmative
he asked, MAY l carry it?' | told him
where to put the wood. AS he started
out l asked, How much do you want
for carrying up the wood?' He
answered promptly. "A dollar"
l was surprised and amused for
dollars worth of wood, there being a
quarter of a cord and wood was then
worth only $3.50 or IS a cord. | ex-
planned this to the little boy and told
him that | usually got that amount
carried up for % cents.
Tears came to the eyes of the little
fellow and as he turned away he said:
Il wish l could get something to do to
earn some money" | needed a boy to
work in the office and l asked him
How would you like to learn the
printers trade?" The little fellows
eyes sparkled and the expression on
his face changed from one of pain to
one of pleasure as he asked, ooh. may

the first week, with a promise of in
creased wages as he improved in his
work, with the proviso that his
parents We're willing that he should
accept the place.

The next morning when l reached
the office a little before o'clock |
found the little boy sitting on the
bottom step waiting my arrival. The
morning was cold, with snow on the
ground, but he had braved the cold
weather and was there ahead of time
por opening the office. He went to work
chat day and was promptly dubbed
"the printers devil" He was the most
proficient and ambitious boy | ever
had in my employ, and in a few days
was a general faVorite in the office
His wages were raised the second
week to $50 the third to 50 and later
he earned $3.50 per week while learn
ing the printer trade. On CHRISTMAS
day one of the printers, Frank Dag

others gave him presents for Christ

An Inspiration to Others.
That boy was Leo O. Meigs. now
speaker of the house of representa-
tives of this state: one of the bright
est attorneys in the west, and the man
who was honored with being selected
to deliver the commencement address
in Washington State college, where
he attended school one year. Mr..
Meigs is a "self-made" man in the
strictest sense of the word and his
success hould be an inspiration TO
others 10 set a high mark and never
waver or falter until it is reached.
l remember that the little fellow said
that he was going to be lawyer som
day and e he never gave up this idea.
even though the chance looked any

he was laboring to get an education
and assist his family. But the same
spirit which prompted him to work
