AN ENGINEER'S NARRATIVE SHOWING
THEIR PECULIARITIES
llirj V«ry Often Fail Into Ooeer Sulk* and
liulky Spell,-Tl.e A»ti«n of Some 1»-
mout Xtckiso-OM "1O0" Killed the
Eoi;iueer la a I it or Hate.
"It sounds queer to say that locomo
tives have their likes and dislikes,"
said a veteran engineer, "but it actual
ly does seem sometimes as if they
had. and all old-time engineers believe
it. I've seen locomotives when they
acted as if they were human beings.
They get the sulks and have balky
streaks, and when they're in such
moods you can't make time with them,
do what you may. Then, asain, they'll
be as chipper and willing as a trotting
horse, and you actually have to hold
'em in place to keep 'em from running
into stopping-places ahead of time.
There isn't an engineer of any experi
ence at all who can't tell you of in
stances by the dozen of engines that
positively would not make time with
some engineers, but which would get
there every time in charge of some
other engineer. You might say that it
was the fault of the engineer that such
engines did not make their time, but
I have known as good engineers as
ever mounted a footboard who have
been transferred from locomotives
placed in their hands to run because
the locomotives would not make their
time, but which, under the hands of
another engineer, neither as skilful nor
as experienced, would never run be
hind.
"Take the case of Josh Martin and
Gad Lyman, two of the early engineers
on the Erie Railroad, and neither of
them with a superior in his craft at
that day. One tiir.e a new locomotive
was turned out of a Paterson shop for
the Erie, and Josh Martin wanted her
the worst way. He ran on the Dela
ware division, from Port Jervis to Sus
quehanna. The superintendent,
though, wanted the engine for the
Eastern division, between Port Jervis
and Piermont, and so he put her in
charge of Gad Lyman. Gad ran her,
or rather he tried to run her, but she
had made up her mind about
something, and she wouldn't make any
kind of time for Gad. She would stall
without provocation and acted con
trary generally. Gad tried her for a
week, and then reported the locomo
tive 'No good,' and she was condemned
to run the gravel train. She worked
as balky and sulky as ever, though,
and at last the superintendent ordered
her to the scrap heap.
"Josh Martin heard of the fate the
locomotive bad been sentenced to, and
he came down the- road a-flying. He
begged to have the engine, for he liked
her, and said he was sure she would
do all right with him. The superin
tendent yielded to Josh's appeal, and
told him to take the locomotive and
give her a trial. Josh did so. He
mounted the cab at Piermont, and
when he opened her up she went like
a bird. She made the trip to Port Jer
vis quicker than any locomotive had
ever made it before, and Josh Martin
ran her for years on the Delaware di
vision after that, and always on time
as easy as could be. The locomotive
was the old 71, and she is remember* I
yet by all the old engineers, and is
well known to the younger ones by the
tradition of the road.
When Gad Lyman gave up that, lo
comotive because she wouldn't vork
under him, he was put in charge o
another new locomotive. This loco
motive was a favorite of President
Loder of the Erie. She behaved the
best kind, and Gad was tickled all but
to death with her. When the date < ame
round for the opening of the railroad
through to Dunkirk Gad and his loro
motive were chosen for the distinction
of pulling the first through train from
the Hudson to Lake Erie. The occa
sion WM to be a historic one, and Gad
was proud. Hut what did that locomo
tive do but Just get the sulks. I don'!
know why. Neither did Gad. She did
though, and acted up so outrageom
that she was an hour behind schedule
tio}e when she Jogged into I'ort Jervia
with the train only seventy miles from
the start. Oad Lyman was the worst
feeling ma>n, I'spose, that ever had a
locomotive kick with liim, and he felt
worse wb«*i he was ordered to take his
balky engino off and saw Josh Martin
hook onto the train with old 71 loco
motive that Gad had turned in us nc
good. Josh and old 71 yanked the
trtiin through with bells on.
And what do you think Oad Lyman's
feelings must have been when he hook
ed onto another train to run back to
Piermont to And the engine that had
balked and striked so outrageously
with him on what ought to have been
the greatest trip on record, just turn
in and let herself out so cheerfully and
lively on the way back that it was all
Gad could do to hold her in! Now, how
do you account for that? It is true
and a matter of record. Gad was BC
cut up by this conduct of the locomo
tive that he applied to have her ex
changed for some other one, although
she worked like a thoroughbred evet
since the day she refused to pull the
great pioneer through special. Tin
company would not make the change
that Gad wanted, and he refused tc
run that, locomotive any longer and
quit the road. This locomotive waj
the 100. When Gad gave her up she
wajß placed in charge of BUI Lyman
Gad's brother. There wasn't a bettei
engineer on the road than Bill, and he
knew that make of locomotive particu
larly, for he had worked In the shops
and helped make 'em. Hut \vh: t dirt
this rantankeroun locomotive 100 do'
She Hulked with Oil! from tli<- tlrpn he
took h»r. Som<>'im*s she'd Hpurt a
little, but If she dl<! >:hc made up for it
by lapsing worse than ever. Dill wor
ried along with her for nearly a year,
but she wouldn't work under him at
all. One day In the spring of 1852 who
balked for certain at Chester station,
just as she was pulling out with a
train. lilll pounded her, for h' was
mad, but it seemed as if she actually
shook her head like an ugly horse. Hill
socked it right on to her, and suddenly
she gave a spurt ahead exactly like
the quick start of a balky horse. Then
everything roared and shook around
the place for a second or two. The
vicious old 100 had exploded her boiler.
She tore and riddled herself frightful
ly, but the horror of It all was that she
had killed poor Bill Lyman and his
fireman, Gad l-yman lived many years
after that, but he always regretted his
abandoning of that locomotive, for he
said that if he had stayed by her there
was no doubt that she would have end
ed her days usefully and in peace and
the awful tragedy of her ending would
not have been."

GENERAL CALIXTO GARCIA
Bat Fought Bled nod Been ImprUOß"
for C aba Libre.
Oeneral Calixto Garcia, the vetorftt
of Cuban revolution, is by birth fl
Cuban and formerly a resident of New
York. lie is about fifty-nine year??
old, decidedly military in pose and
manner; his conversation vivacious,
but always to the point and always
brilliant. By profession a lawyer, he
impresses one as born to command —a
man of big affairs wlio would carry
out any enterprise with honor and
success. Among his followers his
law and his counsel is always sought
and followed in grave emergencies.
lie was one of the organizers of that
first Cuban revolution of ISGS. lie
met •with his friends nightly at a farm
owned by Donato Marmol, near the
town of Ilolguin. The Cubans were
already in revolt under Cespedes. and
within two days Marmol and Garcia
took up arms with 150 resolute follow
ers. Extraordinary success attended
them. Town after town surrendered,
first Santa Rita, then Juguanl. after
hard fighting, with its 20,000 popula
tion. For his bravery Garcia was pro
moted brigadier general under Gomez.
Later, when the provisional govern
ment. for some reason not clearly ex
plained. removed Gomez, Garcia suc
ceeded him. Finding that Juguanl
had, meanwhile, been retaken by the
Spaniards, he proceeded to capture it
again. He next took Holguin, the
town where the revolution was origi
nally organized. Other victories rap-
Idly followed.
At the obstinate all day battle of
Santa Maria, in 1869, he followed Von
Moltke's tactics at Sedan—surrounded j
the enemy's army and forced the sur
render of General Vingues and his
men. They were well treated and ■
given freedom.
So grateful were they for the unex
pected clemency that one of the offi
cers, General Kosales, on returning to
Spain, issued a pamphlet extolling the
generosity of Garcia. But victor}' did
not always follow the Cuban eagles.
September. 1873, brought reverses.
In the absence of his main forces,
Garcia with his guard of twenty men
was surrounded by five hundred Span
iards anu, when at the last moment
capture was inevitable, rather tlian
surrender and die of torture, Garcia
hred his pistol into his mouth, and
fell among his dead comrades. The
Spaniards carried liiai to Manzanillo
in triumph, also thinking him dead.
To the amaz<ynent of Spanish doctors
and generals, Garcia revived, although
the bullet had penetrated his palate,
following the line o? his nose, and
emerging from his forehead.
It seemed a miracle that the General
lived. Then It was equally surprising
that, recovering, he escaped execution.
But he was spared and imprisoned at
Valencia and Santoaa. In Spain.
Fortunately for Garcia General Cam
pos, Governor General of Havana, was
not vindicative, for when peace was
declared In 1877, Premier Canovas
freed him, at the cablad request of
Campos. This explains why Martinez
Campos has always bgen respected
and admired by the Insurgents.
Notwithstanding he was free, Garcia
did not fully believe in the sincerity
of the peace treaty, and he came to
New York, to await further develop
ments. It soon transpired that the
Spaniards were not keeping their
promises in good faith, and bitter dis
satisfaction prevailed. Hostilities con
tinned, and General Maceo continued
to bold his ground against great odds.
The courage and patriotism of the
heroic mulatto general fired Garcla's
heart anew, ami again he appeared in
the field during what was known as
the "Little War," until he lias defeat
ed and again taken prisomr.
For the second time his life was
spared. He was sent to Madrid, how
ever, where he was allowed limited
freedom and not permitted to leave
the country. Being a man of eduea
tion, refinement ami indomitable will,
he soon made a career for himself In
a humble way, and earned money by
teaching French and English. He
lived a quiet, retired life, but was al
ways under police surveillance.
When the revolution of February,
1891, broke out, he was anxious tc
leave Madrid, but the eye of the gov
ernment. was ever upon him. Then he
brought his Intellect into play. He
gave it out that he should spend the
remaining years of his life in Spain
This lulled the suspicions of the police
uni 11 suddenly lie disappeared at mid
night. Before the authorities were
aware of it he had arrived In I'arls.
Beaching New York early In the au
tumn of 1805, he prepared to go to the
assistance of his countrymen, but lie
was not immediately successful, lie
organized and led the ill-fated Haw
kins expedition iu January, 1896, and
fitted out the steamer Bermuda the
following month. But the Washing
ton government interfered. Garcia
was arrested ami held for trial under
$2,500 bonds. Before the day set for
th" trial had arrived he forfeited his
bail, and this time succeeded in get
ting away with an expedition for
Cuba.
In his address to the Cuban army
Garcia exclaimed:
"Army of the Republic, your old
general comes to die by your side, if
necessary. Let there be no armistice,
no treaty, unless based on the recog
nition of our independence—free for
ever, or battling forever until free."
Garcla's most important achieve
ment, so far as direct results are con
cerned, was the capture of Gualmaro,
In December, 1890. After a siege of
twelve days he captured sixteen forts,
one after another, finally forcing the
surrender of the garrison, who took
refuge in a large stone church In the
center of the town. He opened on
them with a couple of field pieces and
speedily (raptured the forces, amount
ing to ticarly three hundred men and
Officers. There was much booty, cou
sisting of Spanish gold, Mauser rifles,
two hundred thousand rounds of am
munition, with machetes and a large
supply of clothing. The prisoners
were well treated and soon allowed to
go on parole. Again Garcla's humane
generalship won him plaudits from the
«*nemy.

TRUE CHIVALRY.
Tin- Ileal Hero of ChaptiHepee, Wil

iiaoiun>a> Act.
The v. ar with Mexico is a part of
our mar* ai h -torv. I aylor and Scot «
acd Davis and Lee came out of It im
mortal. The epic of that great strug
gle was the storming of Chapultepec.
That frowning fortress was the G:l>-
raitar of Mexico. Its massive walls
teemed impregnable. Hut American
daring halted at no obstacles, and an
Intrepid band of volunteers was chosen
to scale and assault it says the Chi
cago Journal.
Among the first of the dauntless few
who braved their way through shot
and shell to the fortress on that dread
ful day was a young Mississippian.
handsome as Alt iniades, proud, con
fident and thrilling with patriotic fer
vor. lie was among the first, if not
the first, to scale the wall, and, sword
in hand, dashed along that storm- ,
swept rani pari in advance of all his ,
fellows to cut down the waving flag j
of the enemy and reap the immortality j
of the deed, lie was the first to reach
the flag; his sword was raised, when
he heard fwift footsteps behind him.
He paused, turned and saw his com
manding officer, to whom he was ten
derly attached and deeply obligated.
And then thisgaiiant Mississipppian.
without a moment*- hesitation, with
the bow of a Chesterfield, lowered his
sword and with the point at rest stood
aside while his friend and command
ing officer cut dowrr the flag of Mexico
and was bulletined for the laurels of
that splendid day.
In the history of battles there was
never a more gallant, more ehivalric
deed than that. And the real hero of
Chapultepec, maimed and gray, but
glorious still, sits just before me here
to-night in the person of my noble and
beloved friend, Ger,. William S. \\ alker,
cf Atlanta.
UNCLAIMED BANK BALANCES, j
They Amount to Nearly Hnlf a Mil
lion Hollar* In Canadian
Institution*.
It may seem strange, says the Toron
to Monetary Times, that there is in the
banks of Canada a sum approaching
$400,000 —in 1890 it reached $427,108 and
1897 it was $357 CCS —consisting of un
claimed balances. The sums are vari
ous, ranging from one cent or a frac
tion of a dollar to thousands of dol
lars. One wonders how many of these
balances arise. We have been told
that many an old man or old woman
will make deposits and not wishing
their relatives to know of their sav
ings, will say nothing about the fact.
Should such old persons die the only
way in which this deposit could prob
ably become known would be through
the list of such sums published annual
ly. Again, there are numbers of per
sons who, having long had an account
with a bank, will draw all their money
except one or two dollars. This helps
to account for many a small sum.
Naturally, the older banks have the
larger accumulation of unclaimed
money in this or other ways. The
Bank of Montreal and (he British
bank have large .-urns but the city dis
trict savings bank exceeds either of
them, having nearly 4,000 separate un
claimed balance, the aggregate of
which is over $s ).(:sO. 11 is only of late
years that the g'jvernment of Canada
has busied itse!!' iu taking custody of
these funds. X it. presumably, that
they were unsafe in t! hands of the
banks, but perl.aos it was a pa
ternal duty of the Mate to control
them.

A Maternal I'lsruu Situ on a Hcn'a

ably Aiiiaxca Her.
D. Morris Haines, of Burlington, N.
J., has a pigeon which recently showed
a maternal instinct, but, not having
any eggs of her own, w as supplied with
a hen's egg. Mr. Haines, says the
Philadelphia Record, was curious to
see what she would do with it. The old
pigeon was tickled to death. She look
the egg. carefully covered it, and im
mediately began the process of Incu
bation. At the end of three weeks
the inevitable happened, and a little
chick hopped out of the shell. The old
uigeon surveyed the result of the job
in amazement. She had expected a
little blue squab, and lo! a little yel
low chick appeared. She seemed puz
zled for awhile, but finally went about
her maternal duties. Everything was
all right as long as the chick remained
in the nest, but as soon as it got out
or. the ground there was trouble. Oc
casionally the mother, remembering
that she was a pigeon, would get up
tnd fly, thinking the youngster would
follow her, but he remained on the
ground as hard and fast as though he
was anchored there. The only thing
he could do was to stand still, watch
his mother fly and yell for her in his
own peculiar way. Then he tried to
Imitate her, but up to now his best
effort has been a six-inch jump, a flap
<f the wings and a squawk. The little
n other is persevering, but she is near
ly discouraged.
