THEODORE AND THE COUN

To each voter I put three questions
Who Is your first choice for President Z

are their answers: e..

BY the above you will see that out OF
twenty voters two were for +. n. One
took him for third choice. Thirteen
picked Root for first choice. Three Sc
lectcd Hughes and two expressed no
choice, but were sure they would not
support Roosevelt.

The man who was fireman on the
first shifting engine used in the local
yards of the Pennsylvania Railroad
was Ephraim n. Jones. This veteran,
who is known TO all railroaders as
Dick Jones, resides at 504 Calder
street. When he is not attending rail
road meetings he spends his time
painting pictures in oil and water
colorS.
1t was in 1867 that the first shifter
was put to work. Engines did not
have numbers in those days. This
locomotive was known as the Con
sternation." After six months Dick
Jones was made engineer. During the
following year the second engine was
placed in service and given in charge
of Engineer Jones. The latter was
retired in 1906 after record of forty
nine years and six months service.
For nineteen years he ran Pittsburgh
Express west and brought east all the
fast trains.

RAILROAD RUMBLES
.SHOPMEN WEAR
EYEPROTECTORS
Use of Goggles Cuts Down
Number of Injuries; Popular
Move With Employees

Members OF the local Safety First
committee of the Pennsylvania rail-
road, report a decrease in the number
of injuries TO the eyes of employees, as
NJ result of wearing goggles. Some
time ago orders were issued to en-
ployes of shops where the work is
dangerous, that all employees must
wear eye protectors. This safety first
movement has spread to other depart
ment, and engineers and firemen, as
well as trainmen are wearing glasses.
Since the workmen's COMPENSATION
law went into effect the local commit
tee has been instructed to see that
goggles are worn more extensively. es-
pecially in blacksmith and machine
shops where fragm ents of steel are
likely to injure the eyes. Engineers
and firemen say the goggles are a pro-
1e-tion from dust and sparks.
The glasses are made of extra heavy
and durable material, with a protec-
tive side covering. When hit by a
piece of steel the glass will not break.
Employees find the glasses q great re-
lief where there is heat connected with
the work, as in blacksmith shops. En-
ployes of boiler shops are also using
goggles.

LIFT EMBARGO ON
N. Y. FREIGHT
Further Relief in Sight For
Local p. r. r. Yards and
at Other Points

Further relief from congestions in
Pennsylvania yards in this city, at
Enola and Marysville came to-day as
a result of a further removal of en-
bargoes. Notice was given local Off
cials Yesterday that the company
would accept freight for pier delivery
in New York, and also for points
along the New York division.
This order, it is said, will release
between 500 and 600 cars, and give
room for the storing of other freight
on which embargoes still stand. The
embargoes remaining, are for New
England points, freight for export,
freight for lighteragc and for points
in Brooklyn district.
The order lifting the embargo is
important. as it will open up the New
York division, heretofore closed to
traffic from the west, and will enable
the breaking up of congestions at all
terminal points.
