A HISTORIC ENGINE

A northbound Houston and Texas
Central freight train carried an en-
CINE yesterday afternoon which, ac-
cording to railroad employees, was the
Frisco engine No. 1914 which in 1904
took the prize at the st. Louis World s
Fair as the best passenger engine in
the world.
Years of service have told, however,
and other newer and better engines
have been built, and the old thorough
bred has been crowded back, and has
finally descended to freight service on
the st, Louis, Brownsville and Mexico
Railway.
The battered old engine was being
hauled dead" to the shops in St.
Louis to be oyerhauled before being
put back at switching work in some
obscure yards, a back number after a
once proud position, and silent testi-
monial of an ever-changing world of
progress.

The county road force with the eR-
gine is now working the Jones Bridge
road about seven miles from town. At
an early date they are intending to
come in and demonstrate to the city
some road work with their machinery.
The county is desirous of selling the
steam road engine to the city, saying
that it is not practical for use on the
county roads, as during the long. dry
summers, water must be hauled, often
from great distances, and to keep the
engine supplied with water and coal
half dozen teams are kept busy. In
the city this difficulty would not be
encountered. The county is investigat-
ing the merits of gasoline operated
traction engines, and expects to have
a demonstration of their operation
some time this summer.

CHANGED HER MIND
By CECILIA MOROAUNT.

Really, Phil, I cant marry you!" exclaimed Helen Ayres impatiently. I've said Mo- now, for the last time. Please don't bother me any more about it. I'm never going to marry anybody. My work absorbs my whole life"
 Philip Jordan accepted her refusal without comment. It was the seventh time he had asked Helen to be his wife. He was quite used to hearing her say No, but Philip had his own ideas about her career"
 All right. my dear; but lunch with me tomorrow, anyway, at the tea room"
 II can't" she replied in terse man. ner. I'm going to meet Harriet West. We were at school together, and I've not seen her for five years. Harriet took up social service work and 1 newspaper work, then magazine writ ing. We promised to meet on the 9th of November, Harriet's birthday, at the end of five years and tell each other all about our progress.
 Harriet is coming to New York, and we are to lunch at Sherry's."
 Do you think she will be there?" inquired Philip.
 'Of course she will. Harriet was as keen about her work as l am about mine. How we will enjoy talking over schooldays and the fulfllment of our ambitions!"
 Well, will you dine with me? After the intellectual afternoon, perhaps you may need some recreation. We'll go for motor ride afterward."
 Thank you Phil; I cant promise. Perhaps; I'll call you up at the club Ii I decide to do SO"
 At 1 o'clock the next day, Helen, dressed in her prettiest afternoon frock, wearing huge bunch of violets, waited in the reception room at Sher- rvs. She looked with inquiring in- terest into the eyes of all the women who entered. Some of them she bow ed to, exchanging a few words of greeting with others, for a successful writer of clever stories has many friends.
 At 1:30 Helen glanced at her little jeweled watch with a frown of impa- tlence. Harriet had not arrived. Sure ly she could not have forgotten the engagement, although Helen had re- ceived no reply from a note she had sent to the Philadelphia address of her friend, reminding her of their pact.
 One-forty-fve. Helen began to grow fidgety. Two o'clock. She had waited an hour. Well, there vas no need to Eait longer She called up her apart ment to see if any message had come from the absent Harriet. Nothing there, so she ordered salad and some coffee and ate her lunch alone, won dering what could have happened to her friend. She would walk home. The cold air and bright sunshine would do her good.
 As she was passing a little toy shop on Eighth avenue her attention was attracted by small child clinging to her mothers hand and crying for a beautifully dressed doll which stood with outstretched hands in the win. dow.
 No, darling mother cannot get it for you. Just look at the dollie, dear, and maybe Santa Claus will bring Helen one"
 Attracted by the child's name, Helen paused beside the little girl The mother turned. Helen Ayers-you! she exclaimed
 Harriet Vest Why. I--did you

forget your engagement to lunch With me-"
 Engagement" Harriet looked plz- zled.
 Yes, didn't you receive my note? I sent it to your home address. And what are you doing with that child?"
 This is my little daughter, Helen, named for you, dear. Come, darling. speak nicely to the lady"
 You married! What made you change your mind and give up your work? Oh, Harriet" There was dis appointment in Helen's voice.
 Yes, dear, I married. Ted Mitchell nearly four years ago. We have lived in New York two years"
 But why?"
 Because he loved me-and fell in love with him. Oh, Helen, do come home with me for tea. Ted will be so glad to meet you. He's so often heard me speak of you He is the dearest husband in the world"
 So Helen permitted herself to be led home with Harriet Mitchell and baby Helen. Then she met Ted-the won- derful Ted, who was really very commonplace person. but devoted to his wife and little daughter
 They were such happy trio, so lov- ing, so cheery. Harriet beamed on Ted and he beamed back at her. Their love gloritied the tiny fiat, which seemed to radiate happiness. Helen caught herself wondering if, after all, home with loved ones was not bet ter than an apartment and the serv- ices of a maid. She wondered If ste and Phil-but all of sudden she re- membered that she must call Phil; she had a dinner engagement with him.
 Making excuses and promising to come to see the happy little family soon again. she hurried out At the corner was drug store. Helen caught her breath as she entered the telephone booth, but unlocked the re- ceiver with a determined hand.
 Hello, Is that you. Phil? Yes, this is Helen. I've changed my mind, Phil No, not about that-about dinner. will have dinner with you. Yes. All right Oh. we'll, yes; if you care to ask me again. I have changed my mind about that, too
