. Bqulpped with v airbrakes and signal
apparatus Inatead of . alatea and black
boards and manned by a faculty of rail
road experts, th Instruction car of tho
I'nlon Pacific railroad has started on an
examination of 6.000 employes, scattered
over nearly J.000 miles of territory. In
this schoolhouse awheel has lately been
carried out a two months' campaign of
education; now examination time has be
gun for the largest class of students ever
brought together by on set of school
masters. August 1 a new book of nearly 1,000
"regulations i was adopted-, by the company.
.Blxty-thre . of the rules wr new. In
anticipation of this th company's Instruc
tion car sfttrted June 1 upon a lecture
tour covering 1 760 miles. To trainmen,
.conductors, engineers, flagmen, foremen,
baggagemen, section snd bridge foremen
and others, the company's rulea governing
movoment of trains, general regulations,
instructions as to signals and other de
tails of railroad operation hive been care
fully explained. .
These employes must show how well
they understand their duties. Though they
' have only one text book, the course of
study la as extensive and the standards as
exacting as those of any branch of a col
lege curriculum. Th student of railroad
ing must know. General Impressions will
not answer , the requirements, for the
whole object of the Union Pacific's educa
tion system is to aecure a uniform under
standing of the rules, thereby avoiding
accidents and delays, besides laying the
.foundation for a better genera) railroad
Mueatton.
Old Methods Obsolete.
"It Involves a great deal of trouble and
(tea," says Vice President and General
Manager Mohler of the Union Paclflo road,
"but railroading has become of such a
scientific nature that the old methods are
entirely obsolete and unsafe."
The educational opportunities afforded
by the railroad ar In keeping with the
strictness of the requirements made of
Us "students. The 'Instruction car Is a
coach fitted with seats and having a raised
platrorm at one end where charts and
mechanical devlcea ar displayed, together
with signals and stereoptlcon Illustrations
of Interlocking plants, . etc. The scenery
surrounding th signals, th locomotives,
and even the faces of the employes shown
on the slides ar familiar to the men and
naturally attract and hold their Interest j
mora than would an ordinary lecture. Th
car has also Wen ntted with a miniature
automatic electric block, signal section of
track, giving practical demonstration of
Signal operation.
In thla novel schoolroom car the Instruc
tor on rules and regulations of the trans
portation department Imparts knowledge
and holds examinations of those who can
not avail themselves of the regular Board
of Examiners upon entering the service,
or when seeking promotion.
With the Board of Examiners' train there
la , a car containing the airbrake equlp
, ment of a freight train In all Its details
and of working slae. This equipment is
also used for examination and Instruction.
Twice) a year this cur Is fitted up with
appliance tor. exam, nation and teats of

With the increasing complication of the
science of railroading nearly every man
on the rolls must be sn expert, and It Is
only by constant Instruction on the part
of the company and of study on the part
of employes that they can keep up with
their duties or prepare t go Into higher
grades of employment. The Union Pacific
system Is very much like that now .In
force In the navy. Time was when, naval
promotion came about almost unfailingly
with length of service. Now the railroad
man, like the naval officer, must show an
exact knowledge of his Intricate duties be
fore he can secure advancement.

D. Lenergan of Florence, a pioneer of
ISM, has dispelled th romanca of th old
Brtghkra Young tree at Florence, which
tradlticA says waa planted by th Mormon
Udr. At th old settlers' plCnlo Tues
day, Mf. Lontrgstl said to a reporter for
Th Be:
"The 'tree was never-purposely planted
her, but was a part of th pickets of
th stockade that surrounded th Mormon
corral. Th corral wa built on this spot
som tlm early la 17. It occupied a
spec of about on and a half acraa and
wa used to keep th catt.1 et the, Mor
mons In at night snd ss a protection
against Indians and wotve. A picket post
took root and this Ire la th result. Its
present circumference I slxten feet at
th widest part and fourteen feet at the
main trunk. - -
"AbJut too feet west of this .corral Waa
th old Mormon ditch and sod feno. The
fence, which wa four or flv feet In
height, extended from this point south,

traces bf this old sod fenc atlll exists
between her and Omaha. From near thi
tre the sod fenc extended te th river.
It Una waa shown to tn by Bishop Cun
ningham of th Mormon church shortly
after I settled here, and from him I learned
the history ot the BrlghSm Yeung tre.
"Th Mormon remained In ramp her at
Plorenco two years, from 1M6 to lata, and
hullt a Village of log cabin. Many of
the cabins wef still standing when I
cam to Florence, and I made my drat
horn In o of them. Tho old Mormon
graveyard Is up on the hills to the west
Of Florence, and 600 of them Wf burled
there. While they were settled her the
cholera broke out and many of them per
ished from that and scurvy. The Omaha
Indiana were very reluctant to hav th
Mormons' remain here and complained to
th government, and In 184J they were
compelled to move across th river. They
settled up and down the Missouri valley
on the east Side for some twenty miles
and some of their descendants still llv
there. Bishop Cunningham told me that
at on time In the Omaha camp ther wr
a many as 1.000 Mormons.
Stay ot th mormon.
"In IMS. during th Msxlcan Wat, th
government insisted that th Mormon,
should contribute a battalion of at least
flO men for that war, knd Brlgham Young
nad the battalion raised. It Wat placed
under th command ot Captain Compton,
and though not exaotly engaged In the
Mexican war. th battalion did some fron
tier service In th southwest Th Metlcan
war closed before the kattallon reached
th front.:
"Th period bf Mormon emigration ceased
along about l&JS. in Wts snd 1843 th Mqr
mons nnally pulled out from the east side
of th river and migrated to Salt Lake.
However, hot aU of them went. Many of
them preferred to stay on the Iowa aide.
Thty became good cltlxena and were the
ancestors of many of th best people living
along th Missouri valley bottoms now.
"For many years thereafter great cars
vans of Mormons crossed the river ' here
at Florence and down as far as Belletite
But th emlgrstlon finally erased about
18M. Bifhbp Cunningham and other Mor
mon bishops told ms repeatedly of the ter
rible privations endured while they wer
neamped her at Florence. They man
