Mr, Lumax, duung bii aeatch for om' thing suitable, aaw a fhtid on an old freight car which waa altogether different from anything that ha had ever seen In the ahape of shield, and It occurred to Mm that, with proper change, a good trade mark could be worked out of It. He hud about a hundred sketches of different forms of ahlelds drawn, and finally selected one that did not conflict with any other shield, national or othet rise, of which he could get a record, lie bad the upper corners cut off and the body widened and a point drawn at the bottom and thirteen strlpee, alternately led and w hite, shown lv the body, and a blue back ground with white latlera at the top This ie a this was done In tue shape of a legend at the bottom and outside of tha shield; but, later, he concluded to show this In the canter of toe body of the 'shield witiilu a narrow parallelogram and a. ring. Then he added, at the bottom of the ahielU, "World's Pic torial Lne." whloh was later eliminated. Vh"n the shield was first worked out. I:e parallelogram extended diagonally through the middle of the shield from the right at the top, to the left, at the bottom. This, however, waa changed later to run from left to right. The time consumed In working out the various changes. In accordance with Ideas which occurred from time to time, was In the neighborhood of one year. 9 wast I Ua tf tha Hail. Tn glancing through tha field of railroad heraldry, the first place historically must be given to the emblem of tha St Louis, Rocky Mountain and Pacific Railway com pany. This emblem haa practically got all mottoes, devices, or designs, enacted or con structed by our splka-attoking friends, beaten all tba way round the world, when K comes to age. Tba main ground of thi! device la a swastika. The swaatika waa doubtless In vented by aom friend of the great-grandfather of the gentleman, who built the cheop pyramid or the emlllng Sphinx or the hanging gardena of Babylon or the Tower ot Babel. Anyhow, It seems to have been found In every part of the world, and at every time that history ran put a tag on; and some that It cannot, even If It does not admit It iiiu n.-.;.va uu a. urticii lug, with a circle surrounding It, bearing the words, "The Pvocky Mountain Iloute," la the em blem of this road. It probably typifies the age-enduring strength and richness of the --coAintry through which the road passes, as xeil aa hints at It history, the swastika having been one of the earliest decorative designs of the American Indian tribes. An K.aaMeni sa a Religion. There Is .so much to say about the North orn pacific's peculiar trade mark that the difficulty In in selecting thlnga to be said in the short space we wish to occupy to as to give a full Idea of tha large meaning of the symbol. For antiquity this trade mark runs the swaatika a pretty good sac ond. As nearly aa can be traced. It originated. us a symbol, In the abstruse mind of young Chinese named Chow Lien KI. This young man was an ardent lover of nature, and In the course of his rambles he dis covered a cave of peculiar formation. He Joed a modification of the outline of tl'l:- cave to Illustrate a system of phil osophy eatabtiahed by Fuh l, a Chinese philosopher, who lived aome S.D00 or 4,000 years before Christ. The symbol, whloh at flrt Beams very complicate.. Is in real ity exceedingly simple. , if you desorlbe a circle arid rule a line through the dUroeter, then describe two aeml-cliles. having the center one-quarter of the distance and the circumference touching the center of th larger circle, the semi-circle facing in opposite directions, you will have the simple outline of the Great Monad. The svstem of philaajphy I stated aa follows: "The Illimitable pro duced the great extreme; the great ex treme produced the two principles; the two principle produced the four fgures." And from the four fin res were developed what Uie Chtneae call tha eight diagrams of Fuh Hi. In Kuf3 B. C. Takes from the Korea a ria. 'i'hiB li the origin of the symbol, but It ! not from this source that the Northern P. V.," or, to quote the full title of the tralft, 'Test Plying Virginia!," Is a com- ptlmentary reminder by it Initials of the pfcraae, "First FamlUe of Virginia." In this section of the country before, end shortly after, the civil war thia term was so much used, and it l.ad so much mean ing, that the abbreviation "F. F, V." was quite common. When wishing to attract the attention of the public to the first solid vestibuled, electric lighted dining car. sleeping car and coach through train operating between the eaat and the west Mr. H. W. Fuller, then general passenger agent of the road. decided that the surest method was to use soma form whloh would abbreviate Into these famous initials 'F. F. V.' Tha emblem of the Wabaah railroad con sists of the word "Wabash" In whits char acter on a black square on a red Tag, Intended to cam the conviction to the observing eye that the Wabash is the banner road. The emblem at first we shown tn the glare of a headlight Instead of on the banner, but as the Wabash grew older and began to look around and see what a big slued boy It waa becoming. It dfchled that it could Just about show Its tall lights to anything on ths lino. So it true the headlight out and became the IJsrner Road. The Dnsaeatln k(lf. The emblem of the Missouri, Hennas Texas la also In the form of a nickname, "Katy," and la doubtleae better known among railroaders as "Katy" than by its longer and more dignified appellation. The nam springs from the fact that the Mis souri, Kansas 4. Texas, aas, prior to IW! operated as part of tba Gould southwest ern system, being known at the time as ths Kansas and Texas division. This among trainmen was naturally abbreviated to "K" and "T," and thus to "K-T," and there from by this easy step. Into the touching, homnllge, and affectionate cognomen, "Italy. " It is very domestic. Tee "Keystone Systeaa." Of course, everybody know why the Pennsylvania railroad adopted the trade mark of the keystone; and. of course, everybody is wrong at least, they are a little shy of facta. The Key Stone, as an emblem of the Peunsylvanla, Is the re sult of a westward movement among emi grants and among the presidents of the state of Pennsylvania in 1S77. Mr. Thomas K. Watt, who was at that time district passenger agent at Pittsburg, In preparing soma advertising for the pur pose of influencing the business, auggested the use of ths key atone His suggestion, a carried out at that time, Included with the keyatone the headlight of a locomo tive, and the rays of light from the bead light illumined the reading matter on the flyer. Mr. I P. Farmer, then general passen ger agent, was struck by the effectiveness of the lda and suggested that the key stone would be most suitable na the regu lar emblem for the Pennsylvania railroad. Caraada'a Katloaal Railway. One of the most picturoeque of railroad trad marks Is that of the Canadian road, the Intercolonial railway. This device Is & moose head looking through a double circle, on which appears the werds, "The Fast Line, the People's Railway." This wns first need In and In 1887, with the Canadian arms, was made a combina tion device, indicating the government ownership of the railway. The moose bead was adopted by this rail way because no other railway In the country passed through such an extensive stretch ot country so definitely recognised as the borne of the moose, .Jloth the moose head and the coat of arm appear on the folder, but the moose head Is the recog nised trade mark of the road. Santa. Fe's RseatBt Meads. Perhaps no railroad bas changed its trade mark as often as the Santa Fe. The trade mark adopted In 1890 is described by the Santa Fe Employes' Magaatne as looking like a oake of soap, with trie words "Santa Fe Route" across it. The trade mark adopted In 1H04 is very gorgeous, but Is a product of the very worst pun that man was ever compelled to aurvlvs under. The main portion of the devloe is the western hemisphere, with a Hon standing on top of the words "Santa Fe Route" scrolled beneath. We are asked to appreciate the signifi cance of this work of art aa "the Big Line" (lion). The present trade mark of the company waa devised in 1801, on train No. 2, go ing into Chicago. Mr. Davis, then indus trial commissioner, and Mr. J. J. Byrne, at present aalstant pasengar traffic manager used what they said waa a ilvr dollar, but what was doubtless a poker chip, to draw a circle, and within the circle they drew a oroee. This device la not so ornate a the one ot 18M, but It stirs up less ani mosity against the designers. Flrat Railroad Trade-Marks. Eut the Panta Fa line pales Into Insig nificance In the matter of ornate design when compared to the old trade mark of the Chicago Northwestern. It was, per haps, the first design adopted by any rail road as a trad mark. The oompany, therefore, had nothing Ut guide It, and the result looks like Halley'a comet winking a palm grave. The only thing It leaves whole is a map of the Northwestern route, and about the only thing we can be sure of ia the statement act forth and only slightly damaged by the comet's tail, that "the Northwestern penetrates the richest and most attractive portions of Illinois, Iowa. Nebraska, Wyo ming, Wixconxln, Minnexota, Dakota and northern Michigan." .-evidently the pene tration was very effective. One is prepared to forgive even the Nrthweetern, however, for turning to a simplicity juat as pronounced and effeotlve a that of the haiita I'. Th trudomarka now used are a circle with a diagonal hand across in black, with the words "North western Une" In white, and a xquare of trad mark to hare been dewl-nd by sueh a famous railroad man as Colonel Pope, la It a Clever Leatt The emblem of the Toledo, St Lrxiis and Weetarn railroad, proporly known a) "The Clover Leaf." Is standing monument to the native shrewdness of an Irishman. This Irishman. Mr. James M. Qutglt-y, wss the president Of the road In 1M. When the truck waa being changed from narrow gag to atandard the company wanted an emblem, and the president aug gested th shamrock. The directors held up their hands In Ind'gnation, and Mr. Qulgley beat a strategic retreat, and smilingly suggested a clover leaf. The result Is that till thin day nobodv I knows wether the origins I emblem was a shamrock of the clover laf. The writer has friends who say they know the differ ence, but as he does not know bimaelt be doe not believe them. In the matter of heertdrv. the Chicago and Alton goes the whole hog. This com pany's design Is a real dyed-in-the-wool, medieval heraldry. The basic design Is a shield surmounted by a very uncomfort able looking helmet, which Is. In turn, aur mounted by an electric headlight with ainga. It is very awe-Inspiring. On th shield ara three links placed tri angularly, aoi Indicating the fact that th Chicago and Alton links the threa great cities of the middle w eat Chicago, St Ixruls and Kansaa City. tv-i'Tounaing all thia dexign is an artistic pattern ot leaves. and surmounting the whole In a cloud ot steam, evidently coming from behind the light, are the words. "The Only Way.' Tbene words, "The Only Way," from the advetikilTig alogan suggested by Henry MUler'a preaeutation ot hi play, based on Dtckens' "Tale of Two Cities," and railed 'The Only Way." From such small beginnings do greet things come. Isolation of the Rio Crude. Ths trade-mark of the Denver & Rio Grande was composed and evolved, as the writer I Informed by Ita evolver, after much cutting and pasting and printing, and the exercise of considerable art and more ingenuity from a number of designs sub mitted by railway printing houses, at his request. Tbs route Is well known in Its advertising with Mrs. J. H. Oanti, Fort -nlMh and as "The Scenic una or the worm. ' mom of the designs submitted were, curiously enough, formed by the bead of a locomotive boiler, some with one kind of ornamenta- tfcia, and euros with another. The combined result ef all these designs Is the front end of a locomotive boiler, wrth the werds "The Bcenlo I Una of the World" on a banner be neath K, a mountain scene on the steam chest, and the name of the company sur rounding the view. Theee prims are made in si see standard ised to United States coin, such as the dime else, the dollar sis, and the balf dollar alse, etc This trade-mark haa been used since 1W. and every piece of advertis ing or stationery bas bad the trade-mark on since laat year. One of the greatest railroads of the con tinent, the Canadian Pacific, uaes one ot the simplest but most effective of em blems. It is s beaver couchant above a black shield, with the word "Canadian Pa- oiflo Railway" In red. The beaver is, ot course, emblematic of Canada, while th shield I the company's design for bearing Ha name. How thia trade-mark originated Is not known, as the early records regard ing It were deotroyed by tiro some years ago. Probably no railroad emblem has quite as much historical and legendary Interest sur rounding it aa baa the San Pedro, Los Angeles Salt Iake railroad, known as "The Salt Lak Route" and "Tbe Arrow Head Una" The design Is taken from the phenomenon on the Arrow Head mountain, near San Bernardino, Cat, one ef California's geo logical wonders. On ths face of this mountain, and over looking th whole of Ban Bernardino val ley, standa eut in startllnar olearnese an Immense arrow head, caused by a forma tion geologtoally different from the reat of the mountain. It oenatsts chiefly of dis integrated white quarts and light gray granite, and Is covered by a growth of short white sage and weeds. Thia lighter vegetation shows up In sharp contrast to the dark green growth ot surrounding chaparral and grease wood. By actual measurement th arrow head la 1,175 feet long end 4B feet wide, covering an area of seven and one-half acres.

We think that moat old railroad men, especially tn the south will agree that it is sufficient history for any A department of the Toung Women's Christian association which possibly is little known by the general public, but which Immediately concerns and ministers to a large part of that public is the Travel er's Aid. The name, Indeed, gives a olew to the work of this branch, but only a olew. Only those who know the bewilder ment and helplessness of a large part of our traveling public can appreciate how many are the people to whom the depart ment furnishes aid, and how various nre the forms of assistance needed. That the employes ot the railroad appre ciate this work is Indicated by their cour teous co-operation with the worker star tloned at the Union station, Mrs. Clara Mead. Indeed, the Traveler's aid work Is a measure supplementary to the station peo ple's and the railroad people throughout the country appear to appreciate this fact. In some of the coast dtles, Indeed, the railroad co-operates to even greater extent, assists in paying the salaries of the work ers. At present there is only one local worker, Mrs.. Mead, who has headquarters at the Union Btatlon. However, when the funds permit, the department, hopes to have a worker also at the Burlington station. At present a number of young people's socle ties of the various churches, the Woman's club and the Woman's Christian Temper ance union contribute to Its support. P.riefly told the Travelers' Aid purpose is to lend assistance to the travelers. Ex panded, this means that the association's representative stands ready to be the friend, Indeed, to the young girls, . children and foreigners, who may be traveling alone, or other pusaled traveler, who need protec tion and assistance. Many women who have never traveled be fore and are puzalcd by the ways of the traveling public, people whose friends fall to meet them and who are thereby entirely bewildered end uncertain where to go, girls who come to the city looking for work, are a few of the oases which look to tne worker for aid. It Is estimated that about 15,QU0 people coins and go from the Union station every dsy. In the six months she has been sta tioned there, Mr. Mead has given ssalrt ance to 132 people. This assistance varies from i-equests for direction to more Intri cate service such as locating friends tor distrait foreigners. Back of tho worker Is the employment department of the as sociation, and the information department, which. In the absence of an association boarding home where transients may be taken care of, keep a list of placea to which the Inquirer may be aent It is hopod that before long the association may have the much needed boarding home, place to accommodate the transient and also the stranger who comes to Omaha to work. While the Travelers' Aid aaeista people passing through, her work primarily is to aaiist the lieople coming to the city, either for a short time, or sucking work here. An advertisement In the Omaha paters! and tha papers throughout me siaie is one of the ways in which the department reaches this public which needs Ua as sistance.
