1:Q1 II'I't:D 11'ITII DI:\ ICF_S TO
LI(.II1 t:\ WORK OF ENGINEER.
Appliances That Drivers in Olden Days
Did Not Rase- !killers for
Fireman Also.
"You cannot compare those old-timers
with the present-day locomotives," re-
marked the engineer, as he pressed Ihe
tobacco down into the bowl of his pipe
with his little linger. "Whether you take
it inside or out, it's the same story. In
lir: days when 1 lied Went engine -driv-
ing; there were just about two levers to
handle, but look at the inside of the
cut. of an engine now. To the green
hand it is nothing but a bewildering
maze of handles, oilcups, levers, gauges,
end indicators of all kinds. What an
engineer is expected to do these days is
simply astonishing. Fins!, he must, of
course, know Iwo tc turn on and strut
off steam; then he has to watch the ac-
tion of the air brake; to see that the
steam heaters for the cars ure working
properly; to run the little turbine which
works the dynamo supplying electric
current to the incandescent lights in the
rms. Ile alone governs the speed of the
(rain, and has to watch for all signals.
There must be just enough water in the
boilers. Ile must know all the grades
and curves on his run, so as to know
where to go slowly and where it is safe
le 'make up time,' All the responsibility
of the safely of perhaps hundreds of lives
rests on his resource. knowledge, and
good judgment, and it is a terrible load
*sometimes."
TO 1.161iTEN THE WORK.
'1'o be sure (here are many helps to
lighten his work.
An automate: bell ringer is one of
these. Nowadays compressed air rings
the bell. Whenever the engineer desires
ki ring the bell he simply turns on the
air.
There is also an automatic sander.
•Instead of the laborious and slow 'nettl-
ed of drawing the sand lever back and
fern' to bring a lbw of sand in front of
• 11: , slipping drivers, the engineer has
but to turn a little wheel which controls
as automatic feed and then can forget
efi maul the sand.
Reverse bars have been arranged to
work with steam, but somehow or other
'they have never met with favor, al-
tltcugh reversing on some of the old en-
gines was a most laborious task. Brac-
ing the feet against a support in the cab,
the old-time engineer many times had to
tug away for clear life to get the engine
into the back motion.
FOR TIIE FiRE\IAN.
And the fireman has not been forgot -
len In this march of improvements. The
automatic stoker has been invented for
his benefit, but not ninny of these are
in operation.
His greatest boon has been the auto -
melte don' -opener. Opening the furnace
cl•r is done very many times in the
ee
ill -e of a long trip, and so u good
samaritan by the use of compressed air
has evolved u scheme by vlii^h a fire -
limn can open the door with little or no

►a.eu•d ed the tender, the other near the
It.t i see door, he presses his left kat
mon a pedal as he brings the shovelful
ef coal forward, and the compressed air
opens the door. As soon as the shovel-
ful has been sent into the fire the firc'-
mWn raises his foot and the door closes
again.
TEE Ci(AZE FOR SPEED.
But all the devices ever Invented by
ninn will never lake the place of the
Until' anal hand. In some circumstances,
and mien the faithfulness of the engi-
neer depends the safety of the train
muoro then upon anything else. And here
file engineer le not an entirely free
agent. The public are to blame fur
%%reeks s'icb as that al Culedon lately.
It Iwo Tines of railway run patallel, the
renlpetitkon Is so keen That minutes

the one that people patronize. All this
Is tine ns kung as there is not n are k,
but when there is, Ilei' it's the poor
engineer who gets blamed. "Ili' was
running Ino fast," they say, forgetting
that if he is behind -hand on his run
these very people woukl be the first to
grumble at the s1ownoess of the service."
CHANGE IN APPEARANCE.
Then. the oulslde appearance of the
present -(lay locomotive Is as different
from the old-timers as cnn be imagined.
The railroad cempatilee in fernier day
spared no etpense when It came to the
r•onslrue tion ur ornamentutkei of their
lecomotiwes, which were not only the
pets of the enghtecrs and the pride of the
whole road. but also daily mowing ad-
s, rtormente of the service. in the'(e
twenlielh century days of black, pooled
leseanctivee whose masters change
every trip, it seems p far cry hack to the
itemanti• days of railroading. when
t %cry rend tried to outdo its rivals In
the way of dandy engines, of which the
engineers were the absolute masters.
No one hal a certain specified engi-
herr ens allowed to run one of These
(rgince under any eircumstances. and
when it l eenme nee (wary to place the
engine in the shop for a thorough over -
beeline the engineer quit work until
the n►arhitests hnd got through.
These engines. which were monsters,
had driving wheel 5 fest !► taehes in
diameter and cos! stout $35.1)10 each.
IIhe rah etas made (:f solid walnut, tn-
side the roof of the cab was mrnposed
of narrow alternate elope of mahogany
and usenet. The tide windows were
made of stained glass.
EXPENSE ON 711E OUTSIDE,.
Just as nvch expense was incurred to
rake the outside of the engine attrac-
tive. First. the frame was made of
'p'aned sleet, highly polished. The
drivers were all pslnted red. with a tiny
black stripe.
From the MI to the sand box every.
Ping was 9ewered with braes, even the
Sacked of ilk ►paha while from the send
and the sand box was a covering
of brass, and tate cylinders grid strum
chests were enclosed with the seine
metal. Strips of bra.ss were laid along
the edge of the running boards, and the
hand rails were of brass piping, with
!urge bells of brass, eagies or some-
thing of the kind at the end.
Some of the old-time engineers wore
white duck trousers, and were very ex-
ling.
when ho climbed into the cub
et his engine just before starting on a
trip he would lake out his white hand-
kerchief and wipe the different brass
fillings in the cab to see if all had been
properly cleaned.
If any repairs were needed he did not
consider that his duly had been ful-
filled when a report had been turned
in. Ile made it his purlicular business
personally to see that the repairs were
properly executed. Often an engineer
would spend hours of his own time to
get his machine into the very best con-
dition. Under the present system the
engineer gets away as soon es possible
and doesn't show up again until ready
1•, lake out his run once more.
MORE EXPENSIVE NOW.
"OI course, engines cost much more
now?"
"Decidedly. I should say five or six
times more. And there is still nnother
class of engine which is as yet only little
more than an experiment. That is the
engine run by electric motor. 'There are
many on the New Haven Railroad whish
new pull passenger trains between the
Grand Central Station and the present
terminus of the electric division at fort
Chester which Dost $35,000 each. So far
they are giving good satisfaction:
"Do )rot: Think engines will be built
any larger and heavier than at pre-
sent ?'' was asked.
"No. 1 do not," was the reply. "I
think that builders have reached Ilia
limit for safety in those directions. All
readbeds, bridges, etc., would have to
be made stronger to carry heavier en-
gines."

JAPAN'S RACE PROBLEM
i'1101'Ef4TS AGAINST THE HIRING OF
CHINESE COOLIES.
Laborers From China Brought Into Ja-
pan to Work on a Railroad at
Cut Rates.
it seems that Japan has been having
e tittle race problem of her own. The
(1(lails arc sparingly given by a native
piess that oourts consistency. From
the sparse news accounts and the edi-
k.rial comments of some of the 'Tokio
paper's, it appears That the imporliltion
of Chinese laborers to work on a new
retested line 111 Kogoshimit pro'-ince'has
helped to show the Japanese where' lite
shoe pinches in this country.
Early in July the contractor to whom
the construction work on the railroad
had been awarded hnforted thirty Chi-
rtese laborers. The wages he paid were
10 yen a month -about $5 gold -and
that was about 50 per cent. cheaper
than the hire of Japanese laborers. Still
the Chinese were satisfied and they were
lewd worknen.
So pleased was the Japanese conirac-
for with his experiment that he sent to
China for 100 more, and before those
coolies hnd landed at Nagasaki a third
consignment of 800 was contracted for
with Chinese emigration companies in
Chefu.
The Mnntchi Dempo naively states
Mat the Japanese laborers took great
alarm at Ihe importation of the Chinese
elopes, who were willing to work for
half of what a Japanese laborer de-
manded. Mass meetings were held by
the citizens of Kago-shima-ken "to con-
sider this grave peril to the laborers of
Jupan," as the Manichi put it.
But the sentiment of the outraged la-
bcrers of Kagoshima -ken did not stop
at mass meetings. One night in the
(alter part of July they posted a notice
wt itlen in Chinese on the doors of the
re:utese laborers' huts that if they (didn't
stop working in Japanese men's places
they would be
DRIVEN BACK TO CIIiNA.
The Local police officials took alarm
at the indignation of the citizens of
Kagshoima-ken and sought advice from
the central Government at Tokio. Tokio,
realizing the possibilities of embarrass-
rr.ent in any overt net against the Chi-
nese, ordered the police of Kagoshima -
ken to use (heir utmost powers to pro-
tect the foreigners in case of an out-
break and their summoned the enter-
prising contractor to a conference in
Tokio,
It happens that an imperial ordin-
ance, No. 352, which was promulgated
in 1198, forbids the employment of for-
eign labor in Japan except under limi-
ted conditions, which restrict such em-
ployment only to the old treaty ports
where foreigners congregate. The 101 -
et papers from Japan have it that the
contractor has either unconsciously dis-
ot-eyed this late or that he intends to
force a test case.
In the early part of August the mat-
ter was still under advisement by the
Tokio (government and the Chinamen
were slut working, under police pro.
lection.
in July the lateral outrage against the
Jrpanese in and about San Francisco

panese Consul (here to his home Gov-

let at this very time the Chinese labor-
ers who were working for half pay in

against Ihenr by Japanese.
Only two Japanese Journals paid any
attention to the Kagoshima -ken incident
and those were not of the sensational

said Ihe Ashal and then it closed with
the sage deduction thet if lite laborers
( f California would realize this ccono•
vile principle there would be no objec-
tion to the presence there of Japanese
Inborers.
The Mainiehi Dempo of Osaka took a
different view of the delicate M11181kon.

the Mainict►i's editorial of August 17.

'MONTI•: CARLO.
Tke Gambling (:antes are Carried on
b) a Company.
A recent horrible tragedy, of a kind
reit unrelated to other crimes which
have had u ein►iler origin, Inas again
em:1ltd Monk Carlo into more than the
u.rliai melee.
If a man were 10 hunt the world over
1.• could hardly lied a place which
more absolutely Lits the lines
Where every prospect pleases,
And only man is vile,
than does the little principality of Mona -
at, in the choicest part of the Riviera;
and yet it is known as "the plague -
spot of Europe" and the "international
al nursery of crime.'
Two popular British novelists, Ilall
Caine and Max Pemberton, have lately
discussed in the London papers the
evils of the place and the possibility of
suppressing them.
The gambling games which have
.rade Monte Carlo famous -or infamous
-the world over are carried on by n
company which pays all the expenses
of the government of the principality,
and gives the Prince Monaco three hun-
dred and fifty Thousand dollars a year
besides.
The prince himself, instead of being
the roue one alight expect, is n most
cultivated and amiable gentleman, who
is recognized as the leading authority
in Europe on oceanography. But he
(:es not gamble. The people of ?bo-
nnco. too, are quiet in their tastes,
modest in (heir style of living, nnd con-
tented. But neither do they gamble.
Of the visitors, many, of course, go
for the climate and scenery, but more
are there to try a "system" by which
they hope to "break the bank" -a hope-
less task.
The suicides, cruces and other trage-
dies traced to Monte Carlo are uncount-
ed But the attendants are both court-
eous and sympathetic. "Monsieur has
teen unfortunate," says one of tttern to
a ruined man. "!le has lost all? Truly
most sad! Have the goodness to allow
us to advance mcensicur a trifle." Ile
slips him a hundred dollars, and con-
tinues, "Of course, monsieur will not
m!o anything rash, but -perhaps it would
le well to go quite away for a time."
Suicides on the spot are not regarded
with favor.
There are, of course, international
dlfficutil ; hl the way of suppressing
Monte Carlo, but they are not insup-
erable.
