IS miles, The canal completed in 1928. extended 1oS miles from Honosdale 10 Rondout, x. Y. on the Hudson river, thus providing water route from New York City to the valuable anthracite fields of northeastern Pennsylvania.
 The locomotive was designed and built by Foster, Rastrick and com pany of Stourbridge. England. and delivered in New York at cost of $2,9l490.
 Three other locomotives were purchased at the same time, the "America." "DeIawarc," and "Hud- son." Because of the weak track. designed for direction engines. all four were discarded.
 At the time the "Stourbridge Lion" was run. not d single railroad steam locomotive ever had turned q wheel or run on any track in the United States, and even in Eng land the superiority of engines to the horse was not generally recog- niZed
 The '1ion," after it's second run. was housed in temporary shed where it rusted until parts were dismantled and used in company shops Some were rescued and de- posted in the Smithsonian 1nstitu- tion. including the boiler. cylinder, "grasshopper beam" and the wheel rims.

Washington Aug. ? LPl-A cen tury ago, August S, the first loco motive operated in the western hemisphere, the famous "Stour- bridge Lion" chattcred over hem lock rails protected by strip iron.
 As the hundrsd-year anniversary passes in transportation history the country sees q new epoch begin with the iron horse" teamed with aircraft as an auxiliary.
 Where today the continent is spanned in the slender space Of 4S hours, the little engine chugged along at four miles an hour.
 The opochal trip was made from Honesdale, Pa. with Horatio Allen, engineer of the Delaware and Hud- son canal company. at the trottle.
 The engine with a gigantic lions head painted on the front. coursed three miles into woods towards Car bondale, Pa, part Of the time over wooden trestle and was reversed for the return journey.
 The test run revealed that the tracks were too weak to support the seven-ton locomotive. Another run was made September S, 1929, after which the Lion" was discarded.
 It had been originally intended that the engine would haul trains of coal from the .company's mines in Carbondale, Pa, to the western terminus Of canal, distance of

What chance has a left-hander

asked during a recent visit to the
Capital. None at all IL you
ask me-
"Of course there's bound to be a

that gang. At the best, though,
they're few and far between
Wells wisdom takes in lot of
territory. But logical though his
contention may be there's one tel
low forkhander who thinks he's
dead wrong.
"Those guys can fall just like any.
body eIse," Lloyd Brown, youthful
sidewinder of the Griffmen declared
yesterday. I'D just as soon go up
against them as any club in the
league.
"After all they're only human
and left-handed or not they can
be stopped. Give me one Of my

Fortified with this confidence,

SIX COMPLAIN 0F
 UNPAID JUDGMENTS
Few Ask License Suspension
 After Collision Litigation

Damage suits fer negligence In operation of automobiles before courts of the state have resulted in only six requests to the state motor vehicle department to suspend li- CenseS because of unpaid judgment since a new law allowing such a penalty became effective on July 1. Reports have been made on five cases which were decided before that date. but an opinion given by the attorney general says the law is not retroactive and It's provisions do not affect earlier cases.
 This law provides that "upon com plaint to the commissioner Of motor vehicles by any prevailing party or his attorney in an action of negli- genCe arising out of the use of motor vehicle that a judgment for damages has remained unpaid more than so days, without the filing of an appeal, the commissioner shall suspend the operators license of the defeated party and may suspend the registration of any motor vehicle owned by him until the court certi- ffcs that such judgment has been satisfied"
 Another opinion Of the attorney generals outlines the procedure which the motor vehicle department should follow before suspending li- censes or registrations in unpaid judgment cases. Under this opinion. the department will require that the complainant secure certificate from the court rendering judgment showing that the complainant is the prevailing party in the action; that the action was for negligence in the use of a motor vehicle: that the judgment was given as of certain date and for a specified sum other than nominal It will also be neces- sary that the certification show that execution has been issued as of certain date and returned either un- satisfied or partially satisfied.
 The department will also require affidavit from the complainant to the effect that the judgment remains unpaid for more than so days after date, and that no notice of appeal has been filed
 Blanks have been prepared by the department in the form in which the information is desired. Copies will be forwarded upon request to omplainants or their representa- tivcs,
