Have Instruction Car. i The newest attempt to increase the efficiency of a railroad's working force fmd diminish thereby the fatality lists, which have been growing from year to year with the reduction of running fime, is the traveling instruction car, now In operation oa the Ualoa Padfic railroad. i Instead of being' equipped with elates aad blackboard to facilitate their work ia Imparting iafbrauttioa, he Union, Pacific's corps of traveUag schoolmasters have sets of air brakes, signal apparatus and all the compli cated machinery which goes to make up the operating end of-a greatr rail way system. A two months' cam paign of education la thua being car ried on a wheel, during which 5,e0e employes, scattered over almost J,00 miles of territory, will be required to undergo examination aa to their effi ciency. 1 The Union Pacific adopted on Au gust 1 a new book of almost 1,000 regulations, designed to increase the alertness and efficiency of its em ployes. Of these regulations 3 were new, aad the lecture tour was started to Insure a uniform understanding 'of them by trainmen, conductors; eagi aeers, brakemea and other operatives upon whose knowledge the safety of the traveling public depends. - The instruction coach Is fitted ap with seats and has a raised platform at one end. equipped with charts, me chanical devices and stereopticoa' il lustrations of Interlocking plants. The car also contains a miniature autoatat ic block signaLsecttoa of track.. , i Prc4notion oa the road Is tobeaude contingent hereafter, upon exact knowledge, aad the management has announced that advancement will be placed as nearly .on the basis of a aaval or military achoo as possible. , "All this involves a great deal of trouble and time," said General Mana ger Mohler of the Harrimaa road, Vbut railroading has become of such a scieatlfic nature that the old methods are entirely obsolete and unsafe.' When Wood Wae the Fuel. . The original American locomotives were nearly all wood burners, and luring a protracted period, before the invention of spark arresters, the fly ing sparks caused a great amount' of damage and annoyance. Interwoven with this difficulty was a necessity for using smokestacks many timea larger than those now ia aae too high, indeed, to pass uader overhead bridges or the roof of covered wood en bridges. Tojoverooaae tarn diffi culty the amokestack'bf many of the locomotives were jointed or hiaged ao that they could be lowered whea trains were proceeding over or aader bridges. This naturally greatly ia-' creased the danger of setting fire to e wooden bridges, aad it waa cus ( mary for a watchman to follow fvery traia over or under the bridges, carrying a backet of water for the par foee of extinguishing fires. Notwith standing this precaution the burning ef bridges waa a moat common oc currence.
