and vegetables VIII be shipped by
Colorado growers this year. accord
ing to the estimates of the various
railroad companies which have been
called upon 10 furnish transportation
for the product That enormous total

kind It is computed that from six to
eight hundred car loads OF fruit will
be forwarded from Canon City alone.
The peach and apple crops are con-
sidered very good this year and the
canteloupe Weld in the lower Arkan-
sas valley is fully up to the average.
while a total of 1900 car loads OF fruit
have been shipped from Canon City
during reccrd-treaking years. the
crop there this season is considered
a very fair one owing to the superior
character OF the product will prob
abaly bring rs nuch money as some
Of the more prolific yields in years
past.
Every effort Is being made by the
railroads entering Pueblo TO muster
together sufficient cars TO handle the
product All shippers have been
asked to facilitate the movement of
fruit by releasing all cars as soon
as possible after they have been re-
ceived.-Pueblo Star-Journal.

MADE ILL BY DOGS DEATH
Owner Couldn't Sleep for Thinking Of
Loss of Pet; So He Sues Chief
of Police.

Pittsburgh, Pa.-When Chief of Po-
lice William Hazlett of Tarentum shot
and killed dog owned by John H.
Huey, the latter was sorely grieved.
So much so, in fact, that he brought
suit against Hazlett asking damages
to the extent of $35 for the loss of his
kyoodle.
The bill Of particulars is couched
in terms Of endearment for the dead
canine, and the claim for damages is
based on the following grounds:
THAT the loss of the dog has caused
Huey much distress and discomfort,
and that his health has been impaired
because Of the death of the canine,
as it caused him to lose sleep at
nights, and also deprived him Of the
animals love and affection"
Huey declared that money cannot
assuage his grief, but all things con-
sidered, he should be paid for the
dog.

THE CAR-TINK

Out Of the measureless miles of night,
Into the CLEAN Of the station light,
The long train glides and hats for rest
That men may alight and board her
again.
And the chattering telegraphs swift be-
hest
To send her speeding across the plain.
What's that?
That light held low? That voice in the
dark?
That ringing and krnging of steel on
steel?
hand to test and an eye to mark
The car-tink hammering on the wheel
Hammering down the length of the train,
Ringing each wheel for sign Of strain,
Unseen, unnoticed, almost unknown
BY those above whom his labor guards.
Doing his part In the dark, alone,
In the space where the train draws
down the yards.
Who's that?
Whose light held low, whose voice in the
dark,
Whose hammer is ringing its steel on
steel
Whose hand will test and whose eye will
mark7
The car-tink hammering on the wheel.
Out where the coaches rock and swerve,
And the fianges scream on the rounding
curve,
What then to guard 'gainst the sudden
snap
OF a straining wheel, and a train de-
rallied,
And lives snuffed out in the swift mis-
hap,
Ind h. s,%T- La,-
where failed?
What? Naught
But light held low, voice in the dark,
A ringing and Ringing of steel on steel,
A hand to test and an eye to mark
The car-tink hammering on the wheel.

LIFETIME ON ENGINE
ENGINEER WHO HAS SPENT
FIFTY-SEVEN YEARS IN CAB.
Also Has the Record of Never lnjur-
ing a Human Being In That Time
Now Is Retired on
Pension.

Moving the population Of 80 towns
at rate of speed from 80 to 60 miles
an hour, taking people away from
their homes and bringing them back
without injury to man, woman or
child, is the kind Of job a North
western engineer has retired from
after sticking to it for 81 years. He be-
gan with the first short line of the
Northwestern when it was known as
the Chicago & Galena Union, and
quits when 1t is 10000 miles long.
Dan futile is the name of this en-
gineer who began working for the
company five years before the war.
He quit long enough to help in the
war and then went back to his job.
Most of the service as engineer was
performed on two Illinois lines, one
of them between Chicago and Free
port and the other between Chicago
and Sterling. The trains handled by
futile were fast between Chicago and
West Chicago. He did business with
all of the stations on both lines while
he was on one or the other, SO that he
carried the people of each town one
way or the other or both.
1t is safe to say Dan futile carried
every living soul in all the towns at
one time or another. Some of them he
carried twice a day, for they would
come to the city with him in the morn
ing and go back home behind him in
the evening. He has carried at least
three generations of the same families,
in some instances more, and in the
long run he has carried other towns
In the same way, for there was long
time when the train would stop at
every station between its terminals.
futile is acquainted with not only
thousands of men, women and children
who have seen his face framed in a
cab window so long, but he knows al
most every inch of the right of way by
sound as well as by sight. Engineers
grow to accurately locate their where
abouts in the densest fogs by the rum
BILE of the drivers over culverts and
bridges.
This man who has just been retired
on a pension has worked through the
entire span of railway improvements,
from the time when wood was burned
in the furnace and tallow candles
Illuminated the cars, and from the day
when the man in the cab had nothing
to depend on save his keen look ahead,
and then on down to the modern day
when he is expected to pick all the
colors of the rainbow out of myraid
of lights in a railroad yard whether
they be placed at the end of a rail
or high in a maze of targets reaching
clear across a right of way

DUST DIDN'T BLIND SLEUTH
New York Detective Sees Man Beat.
Ing Rug and Remembers
Old Theft.

New York.-Detective Martin Owens
Of the West Forty-seventh street po
lice station, was walking along West
Forty-third street when, on top of the
tenement house at 2O3, he saw Harry
Smith, tenant, beating Persian rug.
The dust flew out Of the rug at a rate
that attracted the attention of the de-
tective.
THAT looks like the rug, by the de.
scription, that was stolen from Mrs,
Dora Waller Of 800 West Forty-third
street.on October 4, 1912" said Owens
to himself, pat as a walking encyclo,

and arrested Smith and took him and

SYSTEM WILL BE SUCCESS
Little Doubt as to the Possibility OF
the Use of Wireless on
Trains.

L. B. Foley, superintendent of tele.
& Western railroad, who has had
charge Of the wireless telegraph tests
on the Lackawanna limited, the fast
train between Hoboken and Buffalo,
says that he considers the handling OF
wireless messages to and from NOV.
ing trains has passed the experimental
stage.
Only two difficulties need to be over.

service up to the efficiency Of the rail.

are the sending and receiving of mes.
sages between the train and station
when the train is going at high rate
of speed on sharp curve or through
a tunnel
The speed Of the train on straight.
away run has not affected the mes.
sages, but sometimes, said Mr.. Foley
when the train suddenly shoots around
curve or enters tunnel while a
continuity of the message is broken as
when a disconnection occurs in the
middle of telephone conversation.
The message is picked up again as
soon as the train has roupded the
curve or left the tunnel, but, although
the distance in curves and tunnels is
short compared with ttE total dis.
lance from Hoboken to Buffalo, for
example, Mr.. Foley wants the wireless
service so nearly perfect before it is
formally opened for commercial and
railroad uses that at no time will the
train be out of communication with a
city where wireless service communi.
cation can be obtained, he thinks, by a
slight modification of the aerial ad.
justment Of the instrument on the
train.
At present one section of the Lacka
wanna limited is equipped with the
wireless apparatus. On alternate days
it leaves Hoboken at 1915 a. m as
train No. and Buffalo at $50 a. m. as
train No. 6. Wireless stations have
been erected at Scranton and Bling
hamton, and 1t Is with these that the
train exchanges messages.
AS soon as Mr. Foley has finished
his testing and the wireless is put in
regular service, the railroad will build
stations at other cities and eouir
other trains. The plan is to have the
wireless stations about fifty miles
apart from one end Of the line to the
other.

ANTELoPES ARE VERY SCARCE
Pronshorn Variety Is Being Hunted
Nearly TO Extinetion-Exeeed-
ingly Swift Animal.

Denver, Colo.-It would seem to be
something of feat to climb such a
desert boulders as are found in south
ern Colorado. The men who climbed
those rocks camped for several days
at the base of a pile of them while
on an antelope hunting expedition.
The pronghorn antelopes which at
one time abounded throughout the
great West have been hunted of late
years to such an extent that they are
becoming very scarce. They are ex-
ceedingly swift animals, however, and
In a straightaway chase it takes horse
of unusually good bottom to enable the
hunter to get within rife range. With
the black-powder rifles of 20 years
ago, and their range of $50 to 300
yards, there was little danger Of the
extinction Of the antelope, but with
the present-day high power smokeless
powder rifles with telescope sights, the
poor antelope is a much more frequent
victim. Trusting to his great speed
he seems to take delight in keeping
lust out of range" and this he could
do to nicely with the older hunters
who carried black-powder Winches-
tiers, running ahead about three hun
dred and fifty or four hundred yards,
and slackening his pace most provok-
ingly when the hunter slackened his.
He seemed to delight in being one of a

But in spite of his extraordinary
