As illustrating the modern tendency of workmen to shirk all responsibility except that pertaining to their own par- tionlar sphere of duty, a good story is told by James 0. Eagan in the °aurae of an article on "Indivtdual Responsibility in Railroad Life" in May Busy Man's. On Thanksgiving eve last, at a point a few miles out of Boston, a tree fell on railroad tracks. and blocked all traffic. In the nick of time a policeman discov- ered the obstruo`•ioa. The following day the enormous proportions of the tree were described in the newspapers, in foot, it was said to be a log over four feet in diameter. Anyway, the passen- ger trains immediately began to line up east and west of the tree until probably two thousand passengers were assembled in this way and sat there in the coaches patiently. waiting and wondering. The curious among the trainmen turned up their coat collars—it was rain- ing—and ran up the tracks a short die tanoa, But the enormous obstruction was only too evident, god they were soon under Dover again. Meanwhile an hoar had passed, and there was no relief from any quarter, 01 course, it is the business of section men and wreaking ore as to remove enormous obstructions from the railroad tracks. So, in course of time, three or four section men, pretty tired fellows at that, after a hard day's work shovelling snow and slush, were rooted out of their homes between eight nod nine in the evening, and hurried to the scene. They carried axes and other tools with them, although emergenoy arae were to be found in the coaches, but there was no one to think of them or the possibility of their being used. Well, the tired section men cleared the tracks in about fifteen minutes, but the total delay to the trains was a little over two hours, which, as you know, on Thanksgiving eve is precious time. The following day I looked over the ground. I found the stamp of the tree twenty feet from the track, measured fourteen inches. while the stick where it crossed the rails was just eight inches in diameter. The branches, of course, gave it a very for- midable appearance. The section men informed me that four or five men could easily have dragged the trey to one side, while with area it was the easiest kind of a job for a few willing hands, that is to -say, in fine weather.
