Boiler Inspector Smndovon kindly
Invited a reporter of Tun BKK to ac
company him on one of his olllciul in-
jfpcctiou tours ti day or two since , the
Objective point being the Omaha fc
Grant smelting works , which , by the
way , is next to the largest plant of the
Icltid in the world.
In the machinery necessary to sep
arate the precious and baser metals from
their earthy surroundings in that es
tablishment eight immense boilers are
necessary , all of which arc Kept con-
Btnntly in use except when undergoing
inspection.
On arriving ; at the works , the inspector -
tor stripped himself of his outer gar
ments.
"This is no dude's job , " ho remarked ,
noticing the reporter's surprise , "I can
assure you , as you will see in a few
minutes , and I have to attire myself ac
cordingly. "
lie then commenced to envelop him
self in a Btrango-looking garment of
coarse cloth , similnr in pattern to the
unit worn by I3nul Hoynton in his aqua
tic exploits. It consisted of pantaloons ,
lacuot and hood all in one garment.
Thus costumed , as the inspector
termed it , Mr. Slandoven stopped before -
fore one of the boilers under which the
lira hud been extinguished only a few
hours ,
The first object to engage his atten
tion was the tuba in front of the boiler
known as the water column , which hu
examined carefully and decided to bo in
proper condition , The reporter looked
nt it also but was at a loss to know how
the inspector could toll whether it was
right or wrong and turned to ask a
question concerning it. But lot the
otllciiil had vanished as though by magic ,
A pair of boots was soon protruding
from the furnace and a mullled voice
about six foot inside revealed their
owner and the whereabouts of the im-
'llvlduul. After several raps on the
surface of the boiler above him the
Miuflled voice said :
"Hero's a chock that will bring mo
back inside of three months. "
The examination of the mud drum
followed , "This appendage , " says the
inspector , "is to catch all the seilimonl
from the boiler. If it is not pronorlj
cared for , it will rust out and give uwnj
and a disastrous explosion will follow. '
"What are the vuriouuuuusosof boiler
explosions'/1 Fasltcd the reporter.
"Thoreuru four things that will causa
an explosion , " said Mr. Standevan
"First , a weak and defective boiler ma.\
oxiilodo from overpressure ; second , the
safety valve often becomes corroded am
rofui.es to work when maximum pros
euro la raised , unil should the stoan
gauge bo dofnctivo nt the sumo time
thev could rulso an overpressure am
tlmt would burst the bailer ; third , i
vraUir hhould bo run in the bailer whoi
the waUir fall * below the flues or crown
hec- ( and tliu tube * or crown-shoot arc
, an uxplonlou.is Inevitable
burlh , if the mud drum should become
ofectivo , tnon look out for an explo-
lion , but the blowing up of a mud drum
s not near as disastrous as that of the
> oilor propor. "
Tlio inspector then ascended a stoop
lainvay leading to the top of the
) oilors and lifting the safety valve said :
"Thu engineer must lift this every
lay to keep it from corroding. If he
Iocs not , and it is found out , ho will
mve his license revoked immediately.
"Hero's our next place , " and ho
stepped on top of one of the boiler.-j ,
vhich only a few hours before had been
alive with heat. The covering to tlio
manhole had been removed and a blast
of air as hot as though it wore fresh
rom Tartarus came rushing ou. . A
.hermomotor held in io registered Mo = .
A moment later , to the astonishment of
.ho . reporter , Mr. Standovcn was lowor-
ng hunsolf into the cavity. Great
> ends of sweat commenced to gather on
us brow , but ho pursued his investiga-
.ions . , earnestly looking for the slight
est defect which , by being overlooked ,
might entail a frightful loss of lifo and
l > roporty.
"Uowdoyou stand it in such an in-
.ensoly hot place ? " was asked.
' Well , it Is similar to taking a Turk-
sh bath every day , but I lind it very
inorvating. Tlio worst thing is this
lot water dripping on me , each drop
'eels like a knife-thrust. "
"Well , why don't you have the com-
) any got the boiler cool onouffh for you
, o work in comfortablyV"
"That would take too many hours and
[ jntnil too great a loss on them. They
Dave use for the bailers every minute ,
day and night. "
In tlio coin-tic of his investigation Mr.
Stundovon discovered the slightest
crack , about one-eighth of an inch long ,
in the flro shoot , extending from under
the edge of a rivet. Any purson would
easily have overlooked it , and the inspector
specter would not have found it had not
the "hammer test" revealed its pres
ence. Ho quietly relnarked that a now
lire slicot was needed , and , without n
word of expostulation , the engineer and
Ills assistant proceeded to remove the
old one. When questioned in regard to
the dolnythis would ontnilthe engineer
confidentially remarked that Mr.
Standevon understood his business , and
they wore always glad to have him in
spect their boilers , Lutor , the inspec
tor was asked if everybody showed such
a readiness to listen to his suggestions.
"Wo have no trouble'with anybody
but the owners of heating plants , " said
ho. "Most of the man , who own tone-
motit houses , are a lot of Shylooks , who
do not care in what peril their tenants
tire as long as they can wring a dollar
from thorn. Many a person who lives
in these houses would nuvor slceu a
wink If ho or she know of the danger so
iiQar them.Vo used to have consider
able trouble with other small plants ,
hut the loading shops nuvor give UR any
trouble , In fact the proprietors are al
ways glad to see me comound often Bond
for mo. "
"How many licensed engineers are
there in the city ? "
There are about ono hundred and
fifty , Any man who runs a high pressure -
sure boiler , that Is , over fifty pounds of
steam , luust have n license , Tlio board
of engineers has also licensed sixty ox-
porlonced flromon. These flromon can
conduct the heating apparatus in all
public buildings , schools , churches , etc.
1'ho boilers used in heating prlvuto
families are exempt from the law.
There are about u dozen or llf teen low
pressure boilers in the city and all are
exempt. "
'Tho Inspection of boilers lias boon of
incalculable bonellt to the city. During
the eighteen months I have been in
olllco the number of boilers condemned
ind destroyed has averaged about ono a
month. All of those would have ex
ploded .sooner or later , and it is hard to
compute the terrific loss of lifo and
damage to property they would have
caused.
"I have had considerable trouble with
inexperienced engineers , and since I
came into oflico I hsivo nad the creed
fortune to run about one hundred of
thorn out of the city. As there is no
state inspection law , these fellows can
go to other cities in the state and pass
themselves off as Mrst-class engineers.
Many proprietors m neighboring cities
feel the need of u state law and
to a degree make up for it by refusing
to hire an engineer unless ho comes to
Omaha and gets a cortiticato from us.
Nearly all the leading plants in Coun
cil Bluffs tire run1 by engineers holding
our certilicatos , and the same is true of
South Omaha. In fact , it in hard for
an engineer to get a position in Uioso
places unless ho h6ldsone. Men have
come hero from Fremont , Blair , and
oven as far as Glonwood , Fa. , to ho ex
amined for certificates. Many of them
frame their certificates and hung them
up in their boiler rooms. They are us
proud of them as a college graduate is
of his sheepskin , and they have a
right to he. "

When the Into Thomas J. Potter wis
called to the vice presidency of the
Union Pacific , the member.s of the jour
nalistic fraternity of Chicago , who were
unsigned to the "railroad run" ( locked
into his apartments in the Burlington
headquarters at tlmt place , each bent
on "scooping" his rival on the features
of the appointment. Tlio great railroad
man , as usual , received the reporters
.smilingly , but when ho was questioned
concerning the point at issue , ho was as
mum as the proverbial oyster. Deter
mined to ascertain the facts , the wcrlbes
labored for two weeks , but without stio-
cc.s.s. Finally , on the day Mr. Potter
retired from the Hurllngtoi ; mid was
preparing to goto Moston to complete
arrangements with the directorate of
the Union Pacific , ho invited each ro-
portcr to the headquarters of the iiur-
lington rond. Of course , onch scribe
responded with the idea burning in his
mind that ho was about to be entrusted
with a large consignment of exclusive *
news , lint such was not the cuao , be
cause when the hour of reception ar
rived overv newspaper in Chicago was
represented. Mr. Potter then welcomed
the gnntlemen into his ollico nnd un
folded the much desired information
concerning the proposed change.
4t W
Hut Mr. Potter , unlike numerous
railroad olllcinls , whono plnce of abode
in not ever a thousand miles from Tun
UKK building , had always a kind word
for a reporter , oven if ho did not have
much uowrt for him. When representa
tives of the press were making their
daily rounds of the railway headquar
ters , thu door to his olllco was always
open , nnd the news-gleaner had no oc
casion to curry nrnund a tape factory In
order to have certain rumors of impor
tance substantiated or denied. Neither
was be stopped by a &olf-imporlnnt
hireling ami subjected to a microscopic
examination. "Lot the boys come in
and , if I have nothing for them , 1 will
Iling them out quick , " was 1 ho instruc
tion ho gave to his clerk when speak
ing of admitting reporters.
This was the policy of Mr. Potter as
regards the omis-mrics of the press ,
and , while his ollico was often
frequented , there is nothing mentioned
upon the records of any reporter being
"flung" to the outer world. When
ttbkcd by a friend on a certain occasion
now ho liked reporters , Mr. Potter
said : "Tho average reporter is a queer
HDCcimen of humanity , I have found
that the best way to deal with him is to
give him the desired information and
lot him go away satislicd , because , if
'
you don't'ho will llnd it out
nnvway , nnd may find out some
thing more , nnd the very
tiling that most demands secrecy.1
Potter's theory was that when an effort
was made to keep certain mutters out
of the press , it failed to accomplish the
desired end and resulted in taxing the
reporter's ability to work so much
harder ,

Barber Singleton who presides over the
tonsorial department of the Golden
uate .special , the banner train of the
Union Pacific. . The toilet car contains
a full-fledged barber shop , but if Sin
gleton's version of the predicament in
which a patron of that institution is
placed when ho sits down to have his

Tt is only the Alpine tunnel , but it is
the greatest altitude of any railroad
channel in North America. Thu Alpine
tunnel is a point where the Denver ,
South Park A : Paulllu , a branch of the
Union Pacilic system , crosses the main
range of the Uockies. The tunnel is 1SU
miles wc.st of Denver and its nltitudo is
11iiiXi foot above the level of thu sou.
The length of thp tunnel is 1,81,5 feet ,
118 feet of which is cut through solid
rock. The grade is Ull feet to llio milo ,
which , aside from a three mile road
ever the white mountains , is the stoop-
cot grade of any railroad in the world.
It is haid to have cost a mint of money
and the sacrifice of suveral lives in its
construction , on one occasion , a man
being killed and seven wounded by a
premature explosion of a powder maga
zine. It lias-been Mated that Marnlml

A little episode happened In connec
tion with the construction of the ( Jlioy-
onne & Northern branch of the Union
Pacific which illustrates the ability and
ingonult.t of a certain individual con
nected with the Union Pacillc at the
nru.iont time , Tlieru is n. point on the
road mentioned which was , and is now ,
known as the 'llfty-milo post. " Tlia
Union Pacillis bound itself by contract
with tin : commissioners of Lnramie
county , Wyoming , to complete-tho road
from Cheyenne to that point by Decum-
hor-i'll , 1H8II , and in doing so Laratnto
county was , in return , to give tlio Union
Pacific company $10(1,000 ( in boiuls. Tlio
contract wan lot and work was begun ,
but the con tractors soon observed that
they had a Jonah on their hands , ami
after sinking all their available funds
relinquished their job , and work was
stopped. Then it was that a skeleton
was found In the closet. The road must
bo completed to the given point upon
the date spucilted or the 8KW.UOO would
not bo forthcoming. Ud Dickinson win
then assistant guner.il superintendent
of the Union Pacillc , and his rocuiHl at
that tmo ! was as enviable as it is at
present. Mr. C'nllawny was general
manager of thu Union Pacific , and lie
called Dickinson in from his western
nest and asked him if hu thought
ho could complete the road fco as to
correspond with the existing agreement.
Solf-coiilUleiit , Dleltiiihoit responded
in the alllnnntlnn , nnd , although the
task promised to hn a dllllcult ono to
perform , on December t , Dickinson
bUirtcd for his flold of labor , having
twotity'SOvon days in whlnh to construct
nearly fifty miles of road. He at onca
set to work with a large force of shov-
elers , and , during the period that inter
vened between the date of commence-
incut nnd completion , there was soma
model shovel-wielding done , and on
numerous occasions by Dickinson him
self. The days rolled by and it was
evident that the odds on either side
could not bo very large. On the night
of December : ! 0 , as Air. Callaway was
whining a favorite oigar in his palatial
residence in Omaha , the door boll rang
and , upon opening the door , the well-
known ollicial was confronted with a
messenger Doy , who handed him a tolo-
gram. Ifc toro open the envelope and
his eyes traced the following :
'We have made a hard null and nro
played out. but wo drove the last spike
to-night. Cheyenne has gone wild.
Will &eo you in a few days.
"E. DICKINSON- . "
The above explains itself. The road
was completed , and on Tecombor III
Dickinson took the county commission
ers over it. Tlio bonds were signed ,
and two days later Dickinson started for
Omaha , arrived here , and laid down a
package upon the gonOral innmigor'a
desk. Mr. C'nllaway opened the puckngo
and found that it contained the much
( losirud & 100.000 in bonds.Aside from
being handicapped by a shortness of
llmu , Dickin.ion on sovorul occasions
wai almost driven from his post , toby -
gelhcr with his men , by blinding snow-
