no reason why you must
go through life with half

''We give them a clear track and

the wr ckltig niiiHier do a tho rent,"
raid the yn:l,iiasler, knocking the hp li
es out of his pipe n:id leaning emu
tortally In his old revolving chair.
"All the wreck master knows Is that at

ntid such a train, so and so many enrs.
lias l een smashed. It's his biisine; to
gel to the place fast as steam can carry
him nml to clear the mn'n line quick
at I rovidenie will let him.
"Fen Hint, siren sticking up Just over
the rot t of the engine houpa next to
the rrpalr shops? When that begins to
bray ard equeal and screech three long,
ui.enrtbly toots there is troul la some
w:i"te up t lie line. Kver h ar one of
those new-fangled whistles? You'd
no.er know it was turned on by tho
hnr.d of man. At night it would make
your skin erfep the first time you
heard It. Hut you're opt to hear It for
tulles around and that's what It'a thero
fur to collect the wrecking crew on
a nut.
"Whrrover there's a repair shop
along 'lIui line there you're sure to And
a winking train. The crows aro
picked men from the shops, for a rea
son I'll tell you presently. It's a hard
Ufa tjiry lead and a strenuous one, but
tiny get paid well and they like the
work, just as I've yet to see the first
man in city fire department who is
not In love with the excitement and
uncertainty of hU job. In time the
strain on the wr.cker tells.
"While the work lasts It It heart
breaking, and men age under It and
after lo years' service on the crew are
rarely fit to continue In that part of
the- service. Every member of tho
crew has to II. e within hearing dis
tance and running distance ot tho
wrecking train. During the daytime
the men are at work In the repair
shops and If anything happens they
have ntf-rcly to jump aboard while an
engine Is made fast and starts on a
mad race for the scene of the trouble.
Cut at night and most wrecks happen
nights me men must lie prepared to
tumble out of bed, to run through wind
and weatner and to be, prepared to
work anywhere from 21 to 30 hours
without a break.
"A wrecking crew consists of 16 or
18 men, which In exclusive of a con
ductor, a pair of brakemen and the two
men In tho engine. The wrecking
train ici.slKtB of only four cars. Every
thing that would ndd to the weight of
the train without being absolutely nec
essary Is left behind. Tho first car Is
the one In which tho wrecking crew
travels. In this part of the country
this tar Is not so Important; but on
the long stretches of road in the wo.it
the car Is fitted up completely for the
living accommodations of the men.
The car Is painted red, and. In general.
Is a huge caboose. In the front part of
It the kitchen Is located. A cook ac
companies every wrecking crew on the
modern railroads, just at a cook ac
companies our long distance palace
t:t.!n. Everything of the best Is
chosen for the wrecking crew's meals
during its long siege of work. Ice ,s
provided on which things that should
be kept cool are placed and contlnunlly
a stock of provisions Is on hand aa
ready for Instant use aa the train It'
self.
"The rear section of tills cor Is fitted
up at a living room. No carpet It on
the floor, but everything It put up In
comfort and tblpshape. Dunks are pro'
vlded; chairs and folding tab 1m stand
ready for use. In short, everything
that mon want when they require hu
moring to do good work Is ready and
waiting for thorn.
"The second car of the train looks
llko an ordinary box oar, but la really
a huge toolbox on wheels. In It every'
thing Is arranged In order at neat at
the silver implements in a high-school
glrl't first manicure set. You cannot
mention a tool that might be required
In wrecking but what you will find It
here, exactly In Its place, whore men
can run in the dark and pick up what
they want without having to spend a
minute to search tor it. Axes, crow
bars, shovels, BawB, picks, sledges, ham
mers, blacks and tackles, ropes, chains
Jacks and 100 tools you never hoard of
are to be found In the car.
"The third car is an ordinary flat
car loaded with several trucks. Often
in a wreck the body ot a oar escape
damage, and only the trucks are brok
en and bent and twisted. In a case like
this all that it necessary Is to raise the
body of tho car by means of jacks and
to put a substitute truck under tt and
couple It fast to the car may be hauled
to the repair shop for permanent Ex
lng up. Besides, tho fiat car is used
for taking .home iron work and what
ever is and is not worth saving, but
would look bad and suggestive lying
beside a railroad track.
"The last car of the train It the most
Important of all. It Is ths derrick car.
TUi3 car U built exceptionally strong
A short, s'.out derrick built on a rachet
trrntable Etands In tVi middle of the
car. This la capable of wonderful lift
lug power. Once the little steam winch
on one end of the car begins to squeal
and pun, anything fastened to the dor
rick Just comes. A derrick of this
description could raise on end the big
gest locomotive ever Limit, and set It
back on the rails as neatly at you
would set a chQ6s figuci on its propor
square. ,
"The wrecking train atandt ever
ready on a tiding enpaeiaJly allotted
to It. Thts must not be used by any
other trata under any conceivable cir
CMmstanren.' If a wrrrk oecttrt ttt j
track must bo cleared, from three to !
five minutes Lelng the tlmo tisunlly al
lowed for a crew to gt under way dur-
tng the daytime. An englim ready te
haul the train to a wreck stands al
ways waiting. Tho water tank In Ita
tender Is nln-nys full. Its ronl supply
Is n heaping tcndci-ful. Steam Is con
stantly kept up, ar.d an engineer and
flreiiinn aro ever ready to jump to
work at a inliiute'n notice.
As soon as a disaster occur th
wrecking train Is given tno right of
way over all other tralnrt. At a sp?ed
r.'iiiglng anywhere from 15 to 7."i niilot
an hour tvho engine chases, shrieking
her whiptlo like a frlgliten'd cat The
one object Is to get the trock cleared
so the n.aln line of tho mad con be op
erated. No wrrxk ever happens but
what It p:!rs over tho main line tint
goes without nylng, for It Is within
he Inw of rus edness of things. And
what It means to have a main lino
docked only an experienced rnllrosder
can appreciate. There are the thou
sands of cars filled with perlshah
stuff. A si ore of freight trains end
coal trains are held up, many of ttrlr
loads Intended for outgoing steamers
that cannot afford to wait. Thorn-anils
of pers-ms aro Inconvenienced and put
out. Many of them mlfs cot neetlons
which they hoped to nia.ki with other
railroads.
"Wrecks scarce? We fellows wish
they were! It lun't only every wreck
you hear about that happ-ns on a rail
road. In the first place, a WTock with
out loss of human life alt rails ntrhty
little attention nowadays, and so it de
pends what tort of lives are wiped out
whether a newspaper thinks It worth
tho intenet of Its renders to print an
account of the trouble. Smash a couple
of tramps on a coal train and they don't
count.
"No work on a railroad It harder
than that of a wrecker. And aside from
everything a man is constantly on duty.
It ho wants a day off or wants to be
excused from duty for a Sunday or for
an evening be must give notice and an
other man must be appointed in bit
place. To foil to respond when the
wreck siren blows meant discharge
from tho crew, unless previously ex
cused. The wages paid men while on
wrecking duty vary with the different
roads. One railroad pays aa much as
60 cents an hour from the time tho
train pulls out to the time It is lack on
its siding. This is tremdoua pay for
the wreckers and it. stimulates them to
do good work and creatta a competi
tion on the part of all h.ii:ds to hold
their arpIntmenta and to keep new
men out of them, riequrntly the run
to a wreck in a long one and for tome
hours there is little to do but lounge
lazily and enjoy life. On the way back
th-ro Is another br nthing spell for
those who are In condition to enjoy it.
But why not conio out with ua some
time when you hear tho siren snort an I
you enn se? for once In your life what

THE PROTtCTION OF CONG BIRD3.
A Three Yearc' Truce In the War
Waged by Ft.hion,
There ought to be Joy In the fields
and woods and out over the wators
where tho sea gull flics If the fentiierea
creation were able to understand the
terms cf a compact which hat Just
been cxecute.1 In Its behalf. The high
contracting parties are on the one
hand the Millinery Merchants Protec
tive asjoeinlinn, anj on the other hand
the Audubon society of the state of
New York.
The members of the association havo
pledged themselves to refrain from
in.pi rung, purchasing or telling gu'.ls,
terns, grebes, humming birds and
f:ng birds, and to exert thomselvet
to convict and punish all persons who
deal In thee birds and to report to
the authorities all violations of the
law by importers and dealers In raw
materials. They also agreed that after
January 1 next tho Importation, nianu
fcturp. purchase or enlo of the plumage
of egrets or herons and American pel
icans of any specie? shall cease.
On the otherhand. the Audubon so
ciety promises to try to prevent any
Illegal Interference by game wardens
with the millinery trado, anJ to re
frain from aiding tho passage of any
legislation that would restrict the Im
portation, manufacture or talo of fan
cy feathers obtained, from domesti
cated fowls or of the plumage of for
olrn birds othor than those specified.
This truce in the war upon song
birds is to last three years. It might
bo wU'uoJ that It was for a lnnrer per
iod or that It was still more compre
hensive In Ita terms. But It is a great
thing to achlevo to much as this. It Is
rarely wise to attempt sweeping re
forms except on tho instalment plan.
It could hardly be expected that the
usages of fashion could be made over
all at once, or that lovely woman, who
stoops at timet to varlont forms of
folly, could be cured off hand of the
particular folly of Jo;-irlng feathers
for her headgear. The agreement Just
concluded does not attempt anything
like that. It leaves for feminine dec
oration the feathers of domebtlcnted
birds und the plumage of many foreign
birds.
But It puts an end, for three years
nt least, to the pitiless slaughter of
song birds, and of the larger and beau
tifuly feathered birds mentlouod, ro
far at least as the New York market
and tie various markets tributary tn
It are concerned. It provides a tare
years' truce during which the fenth
orod tribes epeclfiod will have time to
Increase) arid to multiply without inter
feronce; and tho way which it markt
out it to wise and human that the
clmnce are that nt the explratnon of
the period fixed It will be found prac
ticable to extend it In time ami to
make It more Inclusive as to the
classes embraced within H. Now York
Nowt.

Doylah Experience Carried Firmer to
Pltnt Treat for Trtveler,
The late It. II. Stoddard used some
times to narrate a striking experience
that befell him during a walking tour
of New England. "During the tour,"
ie said, "I came, one August after
noon, to an apple orchard In the out
ikJrtt ot a village, and on the fenco
i saw a placard inviting travelers to
enter and partake of the Inviting fruit
within. I ato an apple or two, and
then perceived the owner approaching
from his barn. "Ho was tn Intelligent
young farmer, and I asked blm why
he was so generous with hit apples.
'I'll tell you, air,' ho replied. 'When
my father was a boy he had to walk.
ono summer, a matter of 200 miles,
working out his meals as ho traveled.
There was a certain apple orchard
that he came upon, and an apple that
had fallen from ono of the trees lay in
tho road. He picked It up and wat
about to eat It. Hut tho farmer had
perceived him, and he ordered him to
put the apple back. My father obey
ed, of course, but he told tho man that
he was mighty mean with his fruit,
and he said he would himself, one day,
plaat a hundred apple trees for the
free use of travelers exclusively. For
tune went well with my father, sir,
and this Is the orchard that he planted.
All the fruit here will be free always.' "
Testing Facet.
As the conductor received the fares
be gently scratched each coin on the
vdge with the nail of hit forefinger.
"Is that some new good-luck sign that
you are working?" asked the man who
rides on the platform and asks ques
tions. "No; but I'll tell you what It
Is, though. It't one wny of beating the
company. The fact of the matter Is. I
am getting old. Tho company doies
not know how old I am. If they did
they'd fire men quick. Then where
would I be? I am getting so old my
eyesight Is fajllng fast. If I put on
glasses It would bo a give-away on my
age. I can't tell by sight whether a
coin Is a quarter or a nickel, nor the
difference between a new one-cent
piece and a dime; so I just scratch
the vdge." "What good dres that do?"
"Why, it't simple enough. The silver
pieces are all milled on the edge, while
the nickels and coppers are smooth."
Queer Little Railway.
Many unique and Interesting things
ran be found In the high mountains
that surround the Yellowstone National
Park, but It is doubtful If anything
more odd or Intereutlng can be found
than tho little railroad that connects
the towns of Horr and Adrich, Mont.
While this road waa built by th Mon
tana Coal and Iron Company aa an ad
junct to Its business. It has exceeded
the original intentions of Its projec
tors, and is now a regular passenger
and freight road, and has been face
tiously named tlve Rocky Mountain
Limited. The road la narrow-gauge,
and the motive power ia both cable and
electricity. The cable that operates
the first section of tho road is 4, CM)
feet In length, and In some places
It pulls the funny little ear u a forty
three per cent grade, across treaties
that It shakes one's nerves to look at,
and into a little power house, the rxew
Drop Inn, that looks like a red speck
on the top of the mountain. Prom the
Inn to Aldrtch, the end of the line,
trolley, and the workmen and tourists
who patronize It enjoy riding upon the

That the Chinaman is a cook by na
ture Is a commonplace to us; but in
his sudden inspiration for new dishes
ivs hit weakness, for though In theory
they may be lopkal enough the prac
tical outcome Is not always acceptable.
For Instance, ho sees us eating j j 1 1 y

Jam for the poached eggs; or, one
morning, he may send up a sweet pud
din; made of turnips for a pleasant
surprise, and be quite hurt if the suf

It Is rather curious to know Just hoir
much pressure an egg will stand. The
following tests, given In a telentiflo
Journal, may surprise readers. Bight
ordinary hens' egira were found only,
to give way under a pressure applied
ail round of between 400 pounds and
675 pounds on the square inch of sur
face. When tho tests were applied
internally to 12 egg they yielded
at pressurea of 32 pounds to 65 pound
per square inch. The pressure reqnlr
ed merely to crush the eggt was be
tween 40 pounds and 73 pounda per
square Inch. The average thickness of
the shells was 13 thousandths of an
inch.
