NARROW ESCAPE FROM
DEATH UNDER WHEELS

Pete Dorsey, the we'll known old
soldier who lives at the Home, had
marrow escape from death last
Friday evening by being struck by
a passenger train at the HOLSTER
mill.
The old man was walking along
the track toward the mill when he
was discovered by the engineer Of
the train and the brakes were ap-
piled so that it was nearly at stop
when it reached him. He stepped
far enough to clear the engine but
es the front end of the baggage car
passed it struck him on the should
CIR, spinning him around, and he fell
directly across the rail. Luckily the
train stopped before the rear wheels
reached his body. and he was pull
ed from beneath by the brakeman
and placed in the baggage car and
taken to Kaliapell.
He returned home Sunday, little
the worse from his experience

GIN. REVENUES MORE In 1912,

For the first time In three years
the Great Northern railway promises
to surpass the Northern Pacific In
earnings, according to a report
made public yesterday. The hard
winter had little effect on the Great
Northern.
The reports OF the two roads for
the 10 months Of the fiscal year end
ing April 80 shows the total operaH-
ing revenues of the Great North
ern to have been $54,662,378, an
increase CT $4,O02.692 over the
same period for the previous year.
The Northern Pacific total operat-
ing revenues fer the same period
were $52,7S1.962, a decrease Of
$1.97S,75S over last year.
The $4,0O2,6s2 increase in bus
mess reported by the Great North
ern for the 10 months is principally
due to increased local business and
the heavy Gre tonnage handled from
the Lake Superior district. On the
ether hand, the Northern Pacific for
the same Period reported a decrease
Of nearly $2,0OO,O0,a showing more
in keeping with the current years
railroad business in the west, all
though the competition of the Mil
waukee had something to do with
this result. Both the Great North
ern and Northern Pacific did well
in cutting down operating expenses.

Engineer J. w. Davis has just re-
ceived his patent on the oscilating
valve which he has been working ON
for the past few years. It II device
for a locomotive that will no doubt
be readily adopted by the railroads
on account of its many good quail
ties. This steam valve II 90 perfectly
balanced that nearly all friction is
eliminated. and the oil required to
keep it fabricated will amount to
practically nothing. 1t is just the
device that will be needed for hand
ling the superheated steam that is
coming into use on adj the up-to-
date locomotives. 1t can be attach
ed to any of the standard valve
gears, and most any locomotive can
be equipped with 1t at small expense.
1t is a device that has been sought
after by all makers Of steam en-
gines for many years, and If this
device will make coed AID lis claims,
there is no doubt but what a bright
future awaits Mr.Davts and his part
ner, Chas. G. Hall.
