Dear Sir: At the large coal dock
here they get supplies from the east
and they are brought up mostly as
ballast in the returning grain.

Their facilities for handling it are
remarkably efficient. It is handled by
power ; nevertouched by hand. There
are two parallel elevated tramways'

wire cable close to ,the rail, which'
is kept eonstantly?running• from the
power house. The* 'are twenty ,or
more coal wagons or cars ,which can
be clamped- at wilt to this cable, It
is very interestin4 to watch these
cars, which move Mona'; without any
apparent agency, just any old time
.they seem. inclined: to do so.
I was aver the other day to vieW

sun was shining brightly and :you
wouldn't know it wad so cold, so I
climbed up the steps. (about forty of
then!) to the top of the structure,
which -I would judge to be fully. a
,quarter of a utile long. T found three
men -up there' to supervise the dump-
ing of the cars as they passed along,
so I asked, them how I could get to
the other end to see the hauling up
of the coal from £he boats. They
told me to jump on one of the cars,
when . I 'observed there was a small
platform at the rear end of each,
large enough for a; person to stand
on and an iron bracket -to hold. by. So
I jumped aboard -0.4 of them and off
I sailed- through the ,air, it appeared
to be about fifty feet high and they
travel a ilttle :Dieterthan a man can'
walk- That iron bar;was'awful warns
and I couldn't let go to look after
my nose and other niemiber5 of my
anatomy, so I was sure they would be
missing when we reached the :other
end, however they ,were still intact
when I was able to investigate, So
I walked over to where they ;were
hauling the coal from the boat.
There ': was a steel structure high
above where I was standing, with
several arms , projecting from it,
braced with wire cables from still
higher up. •An iron pulley was let
down front ;each arm with what
they call a clam shell bucket attached
to, it, and the whole let down by a

the feed into the trough they would

could swallow, and S used • to think
each one would have eaten all there

I thought those clan buckets scented

get'into their mouths only three or
four tons at office, so they had to let
it go at that andthey seemed to say,
" Yum; ,yam, haul us 00." So the Jean
at the. throttle pulled the lever and
up they went and seemed to say,
"We'll 'get bigger, bites next timer"

and don't you forget it, so have an-

put his Pipe in his mouth and sailed
majestically away; when he had gone
a little distance on his route, there
was another man said, "I guess P11
h ve something to •say about this
thing," so he gave a wink at me and
put a little obstruction under the

"You thought you had possession,

you see, I have it now and will keep

Wing noise at h. lower level and a
creaking noise. Up went a doer at
the lower end of the hopper and into
the co 1•ca
r on the railway track be..
low, went an avalanche of coal,
leaving that:., big " -hopper standing
with its mouth wide open, and as
soon as she could speak I fancied I
could hear her say, "Well, web' did.
you ever see the like of that? it
seems as though you can never be
sure of anything in this world I'll
never trust that old coal again."
And then 1 heard an engine come
along, which was hitched to the car
with a number of ;others, and it
coughed and coughed, -then rang its
bell, let out a screech and said, "1•lil.

And when I -heard -that I hollered
out as loud as I could, "Be sure you:
give sense to my brother Joe at
Souris and illy brother Toni at Ar-

whistle which told Ate, as 1 'under-

will! I will!"
So I- breathed a grateful thanks
and continued 011 my journey on the

and I... asked the men there if my
nose looked white, as. 1, thought it
might be frozen, for it was still

it ever was white, it i sadly off 501-

,to get thawed out and they took pie
