THE
The Locomotives Centenary
Coincidently with the centenary of tbo
advent of the lirst locomotive comes the
report of tbo building of b far the lar
gest of tbese machines which the world
has yet seen Or course the original
locomotive was employed in England
That country made experiments in tbis
Held earlier than did the United States
England had railroads before this coun
try saw any but there as well as here
tlie roads were operated by horses for
several years before the steam motor
came into uto None of the countries
of continental Euiope had railroads until
long after their inception in the British
islands
Tbo weight of a locomotive of three
quarters of a century or a century ago
ranged from one to ten tons The big
locomotives just rofened to which are
being built in Philadelphia for the
Atchison Topeka Santa Fe railway
woigh 480000 pounds or 240 tons 280
000 pounds representing the engine and
200000 pounds the lender Fifteen tons
at a speed of five miles an hour is given
as the capacity of the first locomotive in
England and comparatively little ad
vanco was made iu the next dozen years
after its appearance Peter Coopers
one ton Tom Thumb which was put on
the Baltimore Ohio road in 1830 could
carry only a little more than this but it
could malce slightly better speed Each
of the locomotives which are being built
for tbo Atchison road will be able to
draw 0000 tons of dead weight on a level
grade at the rate of twenty fivo miles an
hour
When the Honesdale it Carbondale
railway back in 1827 sent to Knglaud
for a locomotive to use on that lino no
body supposed that tbis country would
in the next three quarters of a century
not only beat England but all Europe
in the number of miles of its railways
and would lead the world a long way in
the sizo and power of its locomotives
and the number which are being con
structed in its factoiies The locomo
tive which the Honesdale Carbondale
road imported from England at that
time the Stourbridge Lion weighed
six tons and was found to be too heavy
for the wooden rails with the strips of
iron nailed on them aud therefore could
not be used to any material extent St
Louis Globe Democrat
Victoria and Napoleon
Queen Victoria once gave a remark
able description of her visit to the
tomb of Napoleon I during the reign
of Napoleon III The coliin is not yet
here she wrote but in a small side
chapel of St Jerome Into this the em
peror led me and there I stood at the
arm of Napoleon III his nephew be
fore the coffin of Englands bitterest
foe I the granddaughter of that king
who hated him most and who most
vigorously opposed him and this very
nephew who bears his name being my
nearest aud dearest ally The organ of
the church was playing God Save the
Queen at the time and this solemn
scene took place by torchlight and dur
ing a thunderstorm Strange and won
derful iudeed
WillliiK but Not Anxioos
Ministers sometimes observe some cu
rious phases of human nature among
persons soliciting their services in the
performance of a marriage ceremony
Will you take this woman for your
wedded wife asked a clergyman of a
would be bridegroom
Yes Ill take her remarked the
man in a half dejected tone but he
added with surprising frankness Id
rather it were her sister
Worm
I am but a worm I protested be
ing in a groveling penitential mood
Oh I think youre just nice enough
to eat actually cried the faithful lit
tle wife
That shows youre getting to be an
old hen whimpered I more cast down
