Perhaps it has never occured to the casual traveler that it actually costs a railroad company money to start and stop its trains, so much that the S. P. has had the problem investigated with a view to getting exact figures. W hile authorities differ on the estimates, it seems quite well established that every time the brakes are applied on an average sized passenger train and power again applied to set it in motion, the railroad company is out fifty to sixty cents. It costs about that to take care of the wear and tear upon apparatus, to allow for the strain on the track, to provide the power to pump the air and to furnish the steam that starts the wheels revolving. presents $9,270,000 to the seven to a Pecheron stallion, after July 15th. can do so at my farm for teen woolen’ manufacturers who $10.-insurance, consume over half the wool used F.

Ry., at Sparks, Nevada, comes the story of how one of the foremost leaders of the railroad systems of the new Chinese republic learned the rudiments of his calling. Ah Chin, general superintendent of motive power of the Kin Yuen railway company in China worked for the S. P. twenty-seven years in the boiler shops, starting in as a helper and mastering the ad vanced details step by step, later to leave again for hit own country to head the mechanical depart ment of one of its greatest roads. W ith Ah Chin at Winnemucca at one time, was also Dr. Sun Yat Sen, later chosen the first presi dent of the Chinese republic.
