Locomotive "Conversation."

The way locomotives talk" is after
this fashion If the trafnman should
hear two long blasts from the whistle
he would know it was request for
the releasing of the air brakes and
that everything ahead was all right.
Four short blasts of about a quar-
ter of a second each would be instruc-
tions to the rear brakeman to go back
with a red flag and protect his train
from collision. Something had hap
pened ahead which required holding
1t up. While the f1agman is making
haste to the rear he hears four long
toots of the whistle, the engine tell
ing him that the tracks have been
cleared and that he is to return to
the train as fast as his legs can carry
him.
If a train on approaching signal
finds it at danger the engineer comes
to stop, and after waiting reason
abel time for orders to proceed, which
do not come, he gives four short
snorts of the whistle, which fmme-
diately arrests the attention of the
UOW0rnon OF LuOS6 WHO nave lie
charge the particular signal that is
holding the train up. Sometimes an
engineer will become impatient and
the first four blasts will be followed
by four others with only few sec
onds intervening. He does not see
why he should be kept waiting and
manifests this impression by way of
the whistle.
Three long whistles, when the train
is under way, tell the trainmen that
a draw bar has pulled out or that
coupling has given way and that the
train has been cut in two. This calls
for hasty and careful attention, as
all kinds of trouble threaten when
this class of accident happens. If
the first section is stopped too sud
denly the rear one is liable to crash
into it and strew the tracks with
wreckage. Hundreds Of thousands of
dollars worth of property is de-
stroyed every year because of the
parting of trains.

LOCOMOTIVE OF NEW TYPE
leviathan That Is Being Built in
England for Use on Road
in Mexico.

The largest locomotive ever built
in the United Kingdom is now under
construction in the workshops of the
Vulcan Locomotive company at New
ton-le-Willows, Lancashire,
1t is designed for hauling excep-
tionally heavy loads long distances
over very hilly country and is being
built for the Mexican National Rail-
way company, who have ordered a
number of the same type from the
Vulcan Locomotive company.
The weight of the engine, without
the tender, is 140 tons 1t is a tank
engine, and has an immense single
boiler, the length of which is over
forty feet. 1t is nearly three times as
long as the boiler of an ordinary tank
engine on a British railway.
Firing and driving are controlled
from the center of the locomotive and
a double cab is built round the middle
of the boiler. Driver and fireman
have separate cabs on each side.
There are two separate furnaces,
and a funnel at each end of the loco
motive to draw off the gases from
these. Behind each funnel is an i'm
mense sandboX, so placed as to keep
the large bulk of sand absolutely dry.
Portfolios look from the central cabs
to either end of the engine, which are
both furnished with cow-catchers.
The total height of the engine is
over fourteen feet, and the length 56
feet The two sets of six-coupled
driving-wheels are only four feet in
diameter. 1t will haul load of 400
tons up the steepest gradient encoun-
tered in the mountainous country
traversed by the Mexican railway.

Their Last Hope Gone.

When the minister praised the rasp,
berry jam at Mrs. Green's bountiful
Saturday night supper, he could not
imagine why Angie and Horatio, the
twins, gazed at him so reproachfully
Don't you like raspberry jam, my lit
tie MANI" he asked Horatio.
Yes, sir, l do and Angie does
said Horatio, In distinctly resentful
tones, land mother told us that she
was afraid the last she made WASH t
quite up to the mark, and If you didn't t
praise it, Angie and l could have it for
luncheon on our bread, for Mrs. Willis
and Mrs. Shedd never said a word
when they ate it, and you've made the
third; but now she'll use it for the
church sociables," and Horatio looked
gloomily at his twin, who returned the
look in kind.-Youth's Companion

A Sympathetic Burglar.

A thoughtful burglar who broke
into the house of Joseph Brown,
Streatham Highroad, last week has
earned the gratitude of Mr.. and Mrs.
Brown by returning through the post
two highly priced miniatures, whose
intrinsic value to the thief was incon.
siderable.
The thief took G12 or G14 worth
of portable valuables, including a
gold miniature locket containing the
nortraits of Mr.. Browns two little
boys. The parents were particularly
sorry to lose the locket because the
elder of the boys died only a short
time ago and the miniature could not
be replaced.-London Daily Mail.
