"Down Brakes"

In newspaper accounts of railway,
collisions n frequently encounters
this statement:
"On seeing the danger the engineer
whistled down brakes and reversed
the lever"
AS a matter OF fact. the expression
down brakes has been obsolete for a
long time. What the engineer really
does when a collision seems impending
is to shut off steam. apply the air brake
and open the sand valves. All this
takes about five seconds. and in that
time all that human effort is able to
accomplish for the train and passen-
gers may be done. Railway engineers
are instructed never to reverse the en-
CINE after the air brake has been ap-
piled, because the reversal reduces the
resisting power of the brakes.-Har-

Packey Mcfarland, the crack Chica-
go lightweight. will do 1876 pounds four
hours before the fight if Lightweight
Champion Willie Richie will consent
to do battle with him. Richie says
he will not think Of entering the ring
with any one until next July.
All of this makes Packey extremely
wroth. Richie is the fourth champion
to arise while Mcfarland was a con-
tender for the crown. Joe Cans, Bat
ting Nelson and Ad Wolgast have all
been matched with the sturdy Irish
man, but something always prevented
the championship go.
Packey was matched with the old
master when it was almost assured
the next battle would he his last cham
pionship fight, but the plans exploded,
Nelson got the fight and the cham
pionship.
Packey asserts he taught Richie
most Of the boxing that brought him
the lightweight title and believes that
he is entitled to a match.
