KEEPING TRACK OF THE CARS
How the Car Accountant Records the
Movements Of Each Car in
Service

When car passes off the road own
ing it, the conductor handling the car
on the last division of the home road
reports to the car accountant that the
car was delivered to such a foreign
road at such a place. This road then
becomes responsible for the car until
it has been hauled to the end of its
line and turned over to another road,
when what is known as an Inter
change card" is forwarded to the own
er of the car informing him that the
car has passed off his road and has
been delivered to the connecting line.
which then becomes responsible for
the car in the same manner as the pre-
vious road, until the owner of the car
can be notified that it has been deliy-
cred to some other company.
The car accountant, on receiving
the conductors train Sheets first
checks them against the reports which
are sent him by the checkers at the
different division points. The car
numbers are then entered in record
book, against the proper stations at
which the cars are reported. The sta
tiops along the road, instead of being
known by their correct names, are
designated by numbers, and these
numbers represent not only the sta
tions, but the number of miles these
stations are from the terminal.
Thus, the number "125" would rep
resent a station of certain name
which is 1875 miles from the terminal
of the road. At the end of the month,
when the mileage is figured, these
numbers facilitate the work greatly,
as when an item occurs of ten cars
moved from the terminal of the road
to station l25, the mileage is readily
seen to be 125 miles.

near here. yielded several ingenious
contrivances apparently intended to
divert pursuit after the commission
of crime. They were pair of imi-
tation horse hoofs carved out of pine
and fitted with straps so that they
could be adjusted to pair OF shoes:
an imitation cows hoof fastened to a
cane evidently was intended to be
used In conjunction with the others
to give the impression of a man on
horseback driving a COW.

sEAC0W BREAKS FROM CAGE
Monster OF 1900 Pounds smashes
Way Out OF Exhibition Tank-ls
Lassoed by Wire Cable.

Chicago.-The sea-cow-a strange
animal on exhibition in loop" store
broke loose from it's moorings and
created a small panic In the imme-
diate neighborhood of State and Van
Buren, streets The creature, which.
according to the best authorities on
the subject, ought to be extinct. wab-
bled from its tank past the attend
ants and proceeded to stroll toward
the State street door.
Sunday 1t was decided to feed the
animal on fish, and on Tuesday the
diet was changed to Florida oranges.
spinach, tomatoes and other delicacies.
That night the sea-cow fell into a
deep sleep.
The climax came when there was
a sudden upheavai of the water in
the tank, loud kissing noise, and an
indignant sea-cow arose in its wrath.
One thousand five hundred pounds of
adfpose tissue collided with the steel
supports of the tank, and many gal
Ions Of water flooded the building. A
general stampede was made from the
place.
Efforts to corral the animal we're of
no avail. With one sweep of its tail
1t demolished the rest of the tank and
the imitation grass that surrounded
1t. All was chaos, and the exhibitors
were at their wits end.
Finally a cowboy, by name Frank
Leonard, proved himself the real hero,
lassoing the animal with some tele-
phone cable that had been left in the
back of the building Now the sea-
COW lies peacefully in a newly-made
and much stronger tank.

OF. this country killed 10,5S5 persons
and injured 1888. These figures show
an increase over the year 1910-1911 Of
1S9 killed and 1879 injured. Out Of
the total number of casualties in the
current year 31S were passengers,
1856 employees, and 6,632 other per-
sons, indicating an increase of 33
In the total number of employees kill
ed, decrease of 3S in the total num-
Der of passengers killed, and an in
crease Of 1874 In the total number Of
persons killed other than passengers
and employees. OF the persons injured,
1886 we're passengers, 143,442 en-
ployes and 1910 persons other than
passengers and employees.
1t was the annual slaughter of rail-
road men. The number has been in
creasing every year, and apparently
there is no way of mitigating the dead
Illness of railway operation. Safety de-
vices have failed to help much, in any
event, you cannot make a 100
ton engine and a string of heavy cars
"foolproof." And just here lies the
trouble.
The employees are good men-most
of them thoroughly experienced in
their workout they are inclined to
take chances" So the list of the
dead and injured lengthens yearly, be-
caNse of heedlessness and hurry; they
swing on and off of cars in motion
vixen there is no remotest need of it;
they crawl tnder cars without notify
ing, an equally careless engineer of
Neir intention, and an instant later
they are MANNED or killed. And these
are, only few of the chances" taken
by these men almost hourly in the
yards, on the trains and along the
tracks of every great railway system
of the country.
Railway officials are waking up to
the uselessness and the cost of this
slaughter and are trying to teach their
men to be more careful. Many of the
railroads send out special trains at
intervals with safety committees
aboard to look for instances of care

Longest Straight Railroad.

The longest stretch of railway in
the world without a curve is in New
Zealand, where there is line of rail-
way a part of which stretches for a
distance of 1876 miles in perfectly
straight line. This fact is remarkable
when it is taken into consideration
that New Zealand is one of the most
difficult countries in the world for
railway construction, as it is very
mountainous, necessitating sharp
curves and very heavy grades.-The
Christian Herald.
