OPERATED BY "HAY-BURNERS"
Motive Power Of One of the Civil War
Railroads Was Primitive in
the Extreme.

The history of railway operation In
this country offers many curious and
interesting details. Among them none
are stranger than those that concern
the Memphis, Ell Paso & Pacific rail-
road, 40-mile line operated between
Marshall, Tex, and Shreveport, La,
during the Civil war.
The owner was John Higginson. He
had many titles: chairman of the
board, president, vice PRECEDENT, su-
perintendent, tralnmaster, roadmaster,
freight and passenger agent, fireman,
conductor and master mechanic. The
motive power was of the best in those
days, and consisted of several yoke of
oxen, commonly known as "hay-burn-
ers." The oxen were, it is said, gen.
orally on time.
Mr.. Higginson ran his train on tri-
weekly schedule. When he had gath
cred up cargo" and everything was
ready for the trip he loaded the oxen
into the first box car in the train. In
the next car he had put the freight and
the passengers, and in the third he
himself rode. The cars started down
the steep grade out of Marshall and,
after they had rolled as far as they
would Mr.. Higglnson set the brakes
and proceeded to unload the oxen and
hitch them to the coupling of the car.
Then he released the brakes and start
ed the train up the grade. At the top
the oxen were again loaded into their
car and another start was made down
hill. BY repeating this operation sew
eral times Mr.. Higglnson and his train
would finally reach Shreveport.
The passenger rate was % cents a
person. Freight charges were any
thing the owner of the line could get
Since there was no competition, Mr.
Hlgginson made money. All freight
was marked "red ball" and handled
as soon as received.
This, however, was not the first
''hay-burning'' railway In the United
States. Most of the early lines made
use of animals. The Baltimore & Ohio
at one time employed horses to haul
freight and passenger trains over the
frst Is miles Of track constructed

tie change from the nine grade to the

throwing two years. classes into one en-
tering the high school this year.
To pnovde for this increased attendance
at the high school, an assembly room to
accommodate fifty has been fitted up on

New windows have been put in to afford
proper lighting, and this is now one of
the best rooms in the building. A change
in the arrangement of the seats in the
laboratory room on the second floor Of the
