One hundred years ago last Thurs
day the first locomotive in the world
to successfully haul load of freight
upon rails made its maiden trip. In
vented by George Stephenson, it made
its first run at Killingsworth colllery
in England 1t had so many rods and
cranks strapped to its boiler that 1T
had the appearance of huge grass
hopper. 1t weighed about six tons.
A pair of "walking-beams," resemb-
ling those of modern side wheel
steamer, turned the four wheels.
There being no cab, the engineer had
to stand while the engine was In oper-
alton. 1t pulled eight loaded cars,
which aggregated weight of ~ tons,
up a track that had a grade of one
foot in an eighth of mile. The test
was a grand success, the engine run
ming about six miles an hour. The
first locomotive to draw train of
cars in the United States made its
experimental trip in the Lackawanna
coal district 10 years later. This
locomotive also was the product OF
Stephenson. 1t was called the Stour-
bridge Lion, after the place of its
manufacture in England. Its Amer
, lean engineer, Horatio Allen, ran the
engine over a track of hemlock rails
for a preliminary test. Then he IN
vited any gentlemen in the gathering
of spectators to accompany him. His
invitation was not only refused, but
he was urged to give up his fool
hardy ambition. Laughing at his adj
visers, he pulled the throttle wide and
dashed" away at 10 miles an hour.
Today over $4,000 locomotives are In
motion over the 100000 miles of
trackage in the United States. They
consume about $50 million tons of
coal and carry over billion passen-
gers and 1900, 100000 tons of freight
annually.

The following prose poem was sent
to The Index by unknown Writer"
1t may not be very much for style or
fancy writing, but it expresses the
feeling many man who strays from
the Payette valley has:
l" AXE me back to Payette Val
ley, where there's plenty room
and air, where there's cotton
- wood and pine, willow trees an
prickly pear, where there is
more pay and glitter, where shilling
is 'bit," where at night the magples
twitter, where the Indians fight fit.
Take me where sagebrush is plenty
and there is rattlesnakes and ticks,
where the stacks of wheat cost TWEEN
ty, where they don't sell gold bricks.
Where the sparkling Payette river
makes the green fields in the valley,
where old Indian Jake is known.
Take me where there is no subway,
or no forty story shacks, where they
shy at automobiles, dude plug hats
and railroad tracks, where the old
sun tanned prospector dreams of rich
es meath the dirt, where the sleepy
night herd puncher sings to steers
and phys the quirt.
Take me where there are log cab
ms, wild broncks and cartridge belts,
where the boys wear chaps for breech-
es, flannel shirts and Stetson hats.
Land of alfalfa and of clover, where
there's copper mines and gold; take
me back to Payette valley; let me die
there when Pm old.

ton, he said that he was not working for that place. but as he was defeated, and as a number of his friends are working for his appointment it is possible that he has changed his at titude. Whether or not he is a can didate is not definitely known there.
 Last Spring, Frank Goodbody, a prominent Democrat of Tombstone, Arizona, was mentioned as a candi- date for the position. Adyices re- ceived at Fairbanks are to the effect that he is still after the place, and that he has a following from his own state working for him.
 At least one other man, an East erner, whose name cannot be learned, is said to be working for the place. This is mere rumor, however, and nothing definite can be learned of any such candidate.

DID STARS PREDICT
 EUROPEAN CONFLICT

Not everybody believes that the stars reveal coming events to those who claim to be able to read them. But it is a well known fact that as- trology has it's adherents today, just as it had thousands of years ago, and many persons peruse carefully the microscopes" published by a well known newspaper syndicate. A reader of the Daily Times calls our attention ca rather interestin item written by these modern soothsayers, published on April IA, 1914. In it the credulous may find an intimation of the bloody events that commenced in Europe with the outbread of hostilities be- tween Austria and Servia. The item is as follows:
 Mercury is in a place strongly evil, while Jupiter and Uranus are both in adverse aspect Ambassadors, en- voys, and all who mediate between na- tions are subject to an unlucky rule while this confguration prevails. The sign is particularly sinater for Ger many, Austria, Italy and Turkey, and the United States has reason to be cautions, the seers declare"

WHO WILL bE NEW JUDGE FOURTH
 DIVISION

Who is to be the next judge of the Fourth judicial division of flask? | That question has been asked many times during the past month, and par ticularly during the past few days. As congress is now in session, there is much speculation as to whether or not the President has selected a man TT the place, and whether or not any name will be sent to the senate during the first few days of the ses- sion.
 Owing to the fact that there are many cases now pending before the district court, many criminal matters to be investigated by the grand jury, and a number of defendants in jail unable to give bail, with all of which he department is aware, it is thought in official circles in Fairbanks that it will be but a few days before a ! judge is named.
 Another question heard in the Tan ana valley in many places is: will the next judge be a Fairbanksan?" There are three candidates in the field from there, and each of these has number of Fairbanks support CTS, as we'll as some outside people working for him.
 Commissioner Ii. F. Dillon has been working for the place ever since it hecame known that Judge Fuller was
 Q resign. Many people in Fairbanks ire working for him, but if he has any outside influence it is not gener- ally known. He has been a lawyer or many years, and on account of his experience as commissioner, his
 friends claim that he would fiji the place admirably.
 Luther c. Hess, vice-president of the First National bank, and an Alas kan of long residence, also IS a can ddate. He, like MT. Dillon. has a substantial Fairbanks following, and is said to have some outsiders work ng for him. Who the latter people are is not generally known. At one time Mir. Hess was assistant United States Attorney for the Fourth divis- ion.
 c. Ellis Gardner, assistant United States attorney is the third Fairbanks candidate. He has not been a resi- dent of the north so long as the other two candidates have, but since his ar rival at Fairbanks last spring he has gained some local support for the office. His chief support, it is un- derstood, comes from North Carolina, where he practiced law before going to Fairbanks. It is said that he has substantial congressional support from that state.
 Charles E. Bunnell, the democratic candidate for delegate to congress at the recent election, is spoken of as a candidate for the pudgship. When he was at Fairbanks before the cleo
