FANTASY IN RAILROAD TRAIN
Number Of Cars Passing Over Penn
sylvania Road Leads Statistician
to Make Calculation. ,

During the month Of September
1915, between $4,000 and 10000 cars
passed over the middle division of the
Pennsylvania railroad. The fact led
q StatiStiCiun to make the following in.
geniOuS calculation: Suppose that the
cars numbered 1SS.0OO. and that all of
them had To pass II given point during
the 30 days of September; each car
would have but 1874 seconds in which
to make its transit. Ii each car WAS 81
feet long, and all the cars made up
only one train, it would be about 1,2G2
miles long. If drawn by single two
cylinder locomotive that had cylinders
OF 2O-inch stroke, driving wheels feet
inches in diameter and 2OO-pound
steam pressure, the cylinder would
have to be 80 feet in diameter, the
heating surface would approximate 62
acres, and the CRATE area would be
nearly one acre; and We're the fire box
! - inches wide, it would have to be
l % miles long The handle of the
fire rake would extend back TO the two
| hundred and seventh car. The fireman
1
would have to throw IA tons of coal
at shovelful, and throw a shOvelful
once every three seconds. To feed the
boiler, the injector pipes would have
to be about feet in diameter, and both
of them would have to be working
most of the time. If the engineer had
| to whistle to the rear brakeman, the
sound, if it could carry so far, would
take ia hours to reach him. At a
sustained speed of II miles an hour,
it would take the train about 4 days
and Il hours to pass given point, so
that If station master said "GOod-by"
to the engineer at midnight on Sunday,
it would be noon on Friday before he
could shout Hello" to the brakeman
on the rear car.-Youth's Companion.

BUILD RAILROADS IN AFRICA
rupted by Outbreak Of War
Military Lines Opened.

At the outbreak of the war Africa
had q total of something like $4,000
miles of completed railroad, and was
building new lines at the rate of about
1900 miles a year. At the firing of
the first shot much important cOnstruc-
ton work was dropped instantly, not
to be resumed again until the war is
over. This affected what would prob
ably have amounted to 1000 miles Of
new line that would have been COM
pleted in the two and a half years the
war has lasted so far. This loss is
partially offset by the construction
purely military lines for the better
prosecution of certain campaigns
that might not have been undertaken
for many years had not the war rem
dered it imperative from strategic
standpoint. Such was the linking up
of the Union of South Africa system
with that of German Southwest Africa
10 BOtha in pushing his campaign for
the conquest of the latter region; and
such the running together of the rail-
heads of a branch from the Uganda
railroad and the Usambara line at the
frontier of German East and British
East Africa. Similar construction has
also taken place in Nigeria, the Cam
eroons. northern RhOdesia and prob
ably the Belgian Congo. The total
mileage that has been added for mill
tary purposes is difficult to estimate,
| but 1t would hardly be in excess OF
from 20 to 25 per cent of what would
have been built had the peace-time
rate Of construction been maintained.
Moreover, like all strategic railroads,
this military construction Is worth far
less as an economic asset than an
equal mileage of line built for purely
commercial purposes. - Lewis r..

kins also of that city, passed through
Morgan City Monday evening en-
route for Houston over the Old
Spanish Trail. The travelling gentle
men are in the interest of the good
roads movement and are extending
an invitation to all citizens along
the long route to attend the Old
Spanish Trail Convention which
meets in Tallahassee, May 18th and

tance. Mr.. Lowry and Mr.. Hopkins
remained in this city about one hour
before continuing their journey.
They mention the excellence of the
road except the strip between Nor
gan City and Houma which they re-
port as being in bad condition and
refer to the fact that it will be i'm
, practical in wet season for military
usage as has been suggested.
