JAKE'S FINAL JOURNEY
LAST DESIRE WAS TO KEEP EYE
ON SIGNAL AHEAD.
Life of Usefulness Ended as Every
RaiIroader Would Wish Duty
Ended, Jacob BoIz Passed
Away in Peace.

It was the year of the big Chicago
fire that Jacob Bolz began railroading.
Among the engineers on the Chi
cago & Northwestern road he was an
old-timer. And his watchword
throughout his years at the throttle
was: Keep your eye on the signal
ahead" So closely did he follow
this rule that for many years he was
in charge of one of the fast trains
between Chicago and Milwaukee.
Then came Jake's final journey.
And, at the last, his mind was still
on the signals. He wanted to be
sure that the Roadway was clear.
They told about it the other day
Jake's old-time pals on the Northwest
ern road. They all speak of him as
Jake.
1t happened recently-Jake's final
call for the signals ahead. 1t was at
the Bolz home at 1913 Fulton street.
They knew that the old engineer
was passing out of this world. The
doctor and Mrs. Bolz and other men,
bers of the family were at the bed
side.
Suddenly Jake sat up in his bed.
''How are the lights?" he asked
sharply.
Jake was back in his cab. His
hand was on the throttle. His engine
was Swimming over the shiny rails,
carrying it's human freight behind to
safety or death.
How are the lights?" he asked
again.
He was asking it Of his fireman.
There was an uneasy stir among
those at the bedside
They're all right Mrs. Bolz finally
spoke up. She had been an engineers
wife long enough to know the import
of the question.
"Are you sure they're all right?'
came the next question.
YES, I'm sure" Mrs. Bolz said,
choking back sob.
Are they red or green?" persisted
the veteran engineer.
They're green" assured Mrs Bolz.
How do you know? Who told you
they're green?" demanded the old
time railroader.
There was pause. Then Mrs. Bolz
thought of the name of E. H. Wade,
assistant superintendent of motive
power and machinery of the road.
''Mr. Wade says they're green
Mrs. Bolz said.
The old engineers eyes showed re-
lief.
well, if Wade says they're all
right We'll go ahead" he said.
And then he lay back in his bed
contentedly and the end came

Milwaukee shortly after 10 a. m. that
day.

Between Devil and Lost Train

1t is necessary to bear in mind that
each person checking baggage or
other property from a point in one
state to point in another state must
make a declaration of the value of
such baggage or property when it is
presented for checking" Each person
or his agent must sign a declaration
before baggage can be checked" Fur.
thermore, mo baggage will be for
warded unless the passenger or his
agent signs the declaration" 1t is
made misdemeanor to misrepresent
the value of baggage.
This will make passengers pause.
If they undervalue their baggage and
it is lost they will receive no more
than the value they subscribed to. If
they overyalue it they will be liable
to prosecution, as misrepresentation
Of the value of baggage has been
made federal crime. How can people
with baggage catch their trains with
this new duty imposed upon them?
How can people estimate the value of
their not entirely new clothes in a
hurry ?-Philadelphia Press.

A Noble Task.

In too many instances the country
papers mimic the city press by CIV
ing prominence to scandals, accidents
and poAutaI agitation. The new
rural civilization has placed upon the
rural press areneWed responsibilities,
and enlarged possibilities for useful
ness. 1t cannot In@form its mission
20 agriculture by recording the frail-
ties, The mishaps and inordinate am
billions Of humanity, Or by filing its
columns with the echoes Of the stlWg-
giles OF busy streets, or by enchanting
stories Of city life which lure our
children from the farm.
Il has a higher and nober task.
Too often the pages of the city dailics
bristle with the struggle of ambitious
men in their wild lust for power, and
many times the flames of personal
conflict scar the tender buds of new
civilization and illuminate the path
way to destruction. The rural press
is the governing power of public senti-
ment and must hold steadfast to
principle and keep the ship of state
in the roadstead of progress. The
rural press can best serve the inter
ests of the farmers by applying its
energies to the solution of problems
affecting the local community. 1t
must stem the mighty life current
that is moving from the farm to the
cities, sweeping before it thousand
boys and girls per day. 1t has to deal
with the fundamental problems of
civilization at their fountain head Its
mission is to direct growth, teach eff
iiciency and mold the intellectual life
of the country, placing before the pub
lie the daily problems of the farmers
and giving first attention to the leg
islatiye, cooperative, educational and
social needs of the agricultural classes
within Its respective community.

Two patents, Nos 1147464 and l.
1896, have been issued to William
A. Utz of Fort Worth, Tex, for de-
vices for saving the occupants of loco
motive cabs in case OF accident. In
one patent there is a cushioned and
asbcstos.lincd carrier into which a
scat may descend and TIE lid OF the
carrier is connected to the seat in
such manner that as the seat descends
tho lid will be automatically closed.
In the other patent the body Of the
carrier is composed of a series of steel
rings telescopically engaging each 9th
err and folding against stationary
top, means being provided for holding
the collapsed rings against the top
and for releasing them so they may
descend to inclose the one to be pro-
cted.-Scientific American.

AS THE WORLD MOVES
ADVANCE OF RAiLROADING IN
ONE CENTURY.
Something Very Close to Perfection
Has Been Reached in the Compar-
atiVeIy Short Time of a Hun
dred Years.

One hundred years ago the first To-
connective in the world to successfully
haul load of freight upon rails made
its maiden trip. Invented by George
Stephenson, the father of locomo-
tives," it made it's first run at Killing
worth colliery in England. 1t had so
many rods strapped to it's boiler that
1t had the appearance of a huge grass
hopper. 1t weighed about six tons. A
pair of walking beams resembling
those of modern side-wheel steamer,
turned the four wheels. There being
no cab, the engineer had to stand
while the engine was in operation. 1t
pulled eight loaded cars, which aggre-
gated a weight of 80 tons, up a track
that had grade of one foot in an
eighth of mile. The test was a
grand" success, the engine running
about six miles an hour. The first To-
connective to draw a train of cars in the
United States made it's experimental
trip in the Lackawanna coal district
fifteen years later. This locomotive
also was the product of Stephenson. 1t
/ was called the Stourbridge Lion, after
the place of it's manufacture in Eng
land. It's American engineer, Horatio
Allen, ran the engine over a track of
hemlock rails for a preliminary test.
Then he invited any gentleman in the
gathering of spectators. to accompany
him. His invitation was not only re-
fused, but he was urged to give up his
foolhardy ambition Laughing at his
advisers, he pulled the throttle wide
and dashed" away at ten miles an
hour.
Today more than $4,000 locomotives
are in motion over the 100000 miles OF
trackage in the United States. They
consume about 10000, 900 tons Of coal
and carry more than 1,000,000,00 pas.
sengers and 1,S00,000,000 tons of
freight annually. After adopting the
English born child of civilization, the
United States took the lead in it's de-
velopment and application, until today
it stands as the worlds greatest manu-,
facturer of locomotives. Besides max,
ing enough to meet the domestic de-
mand, the American manufacturers
are shipping locomotives abroad at the
rate Of dozen week to South Amer
lea and Africa; they are disturbing the
calm of the Orient, and are dashing
from one end of Europe to the other
! and have invaded the land of the loco
] motives birth, England. Like the
steamship, the locomotive is growing
larger and more powerful every year
The largest reported to be in use to.
day is huge compound engine, which
/ measures 100 feet over all, and weighs
! $4,000 pounds 1t is an oil-burner and
| carries 1000 gallons of oil and 10000
! gallons of water. 1t cost $43S30 to
/ build. These giants have reached a
! point where one locomotive is so long
that it is hinged in the middle with a
flexible joint so that 1t can turn a
curve without upsetting. Thus the To-
connective has become the modern At
las that carries the burden of the
worlds trade and population across
the continents.

Novel Switch Locomotive.

A gasoline-driven switching loco
motive that weighs only about one
tenth as much as the smallest steam
locomotive ordinarily employed in the
same class of work is being success
fully used in Germany for handling
railroad cars around the yards of
small industrial establishments. This
locomotive is too light in itself to
exert much tractive power, and to
give it the required adhesion to the
rails it is run under the end of a
car and section of the locomotive is
raised by means of handwheel so
that it takes a considerable part of
the weight Of the car. The locomo-
tive is driven by an automobile en-
CINE and is equipped with a winding
sheave for miscellaneous work about
the yards.-Popular Mechanics.

ON DUTY DESPITE INJURY
Veteran Engineer Comes Back
Though Serious Hurt Might ordi-
narily Have Put End to Career,

The usual drawn-out sing-song an.
nouncement heralded Wabash train
No. 2 as it crept, snakelike, under the
Union station train shed several nights
ago. The usual reception committee
of uniformed grip carriers was there
to greet the passengers.
In baseball the announcer tells vino
is going to pitch and catch. But in
the everyday game of railroading the
real heroes are obscure. Otherwise,
when the human talking machine
raised his 42-centimeter megaphone
he might have added:
Jack Bryce Of Moberly, Mo-, at the
throttle. Bryce is siXty-six years old
and has been driving engines nearly
half century. He has come back. !"
He also might have added that the
only interruption in Bryce's forty-seven
years of service was an accident a
year ago in which the veteran engi
neer suffered the loss of his right
foot.
But to tell the real story Of Jack
Bryce would take too long. He took
No. 2 out of Moberly the first time
since he was injured and he said it
was just like "goin' home for Christ
mas"
Everybody from messenger boys to
the president of the road knows Jack
Bryce. When his foot was torn of
while he was oiling his engine in the
Vandeverter avenue roundhouse last
summer, everybody on the road shared
Bryce's sorrow. They believed he
never would drive an engine again.
But Bryce's bulldog pluck pulled
him through, and when he drove No.
out of Moberly recently there was a
crowd there to cheer him. When he
climbed down from the cab at the
Vandeventer station after completing
his run, there was a crowd there tC
greet him.
Bryce has driven No. thirty-seven
years. He had been in several wrecks
but was never seriously injured until
he lost his foot He has made 1900
trips between st. Louis and Moberly
and had piloted a locomotive more
than a million miles. Luther Bickle
division foreman, accompanied him tC

Roads-Filling the Joints.

lecturer cannot be sent, however, the
department will loan a set of suitable
lantern slides to any responsible To-
cal association or individual who will
pay the express charges. The only
requirement is that the slides be
made of active and practical use in
the community and that they be re-
turned in good condition in 50 days.
In addition, a brief outline of a lee
ture to accompany the slides will be
forwarded on request.
In addition to this educational work
the department is always ready to re-
spond to requests for practical assist
ance which may take the form of spe-
cial advice and inspection, superin-
tendenCe Of county roads, road sur
veys, experimental road work, bridge
work. or the development of a model
system Of highways for a county. To
obtain such assistance local authori-
ties should secure blank form from
the office of public roads on which to
make applications. Requests from
COl pOl dIC NllldSCo VI CIIlCo CdulOI 10
met, however.
Bridge work is one branch of road
building in which the department may
be of particular service to local au-
thorities. Typical designs have been
prepared and copies of these can be
furnished on request. A few minor
alterations would probably make such
a design suitable for special condi-
lions, or an engineer may be assigned
to inspect the site and offer sugges-
lions. In some cases designs by bridge
companies have been reviewed by the |
department for the benefit of local Of
ticials.
Possibly the most important way,
however, in which the department as
sists individual communities in the
betterment of their roads is in laying
out model system Of highways for
county which is about to expend a
large sum of money on roads. In such |
cases the department assigns an en-
gineer to make a thorough study Of
the district. He ascertains where
the best road materials are, what
roads are the most important, and,
therefore, to be improved first, and
provides for the location of each road
so as to secure the best possible drain
age and grade.

WORKING FOR BETTER ROADS
Ways in Which Department of Agri-
culture Offers Advice and Assist
ance-Free Lectures Given.

Communities interested in the i'm
provement of roads are recommend
ed by the department of agriculture to
apply for lecturer on the subject.
Lecturers will be sent at the govern
ment expense wherever there is rea-
son to believe that audiences will be
large enough to make the expenditure
OF time and money worth while.
Whenever possible it is, of course, de-
slrable for a number of communities
in the same vicinity to make arrange
ments for lectures at the same time,
since in this way the travelling ex-
penses for each stop made by the lee
turer are materially reduced.
The number of lecturers at the dis
posal Of the department is limited, and
it is not always possible, therefore, to
comply with every request. When a
