RAILROADING IS
DIFFICULT
Very few realize the work It re- 1
quires on the part of the operating do.
partinent of the White Pass railroad
to keep lta tracks open and put its
trains over the road dally during such
weather as has prevailed for thu |>;tnt
month and during which time trains
passed over the line both ways with
the exception of but one day and
then the undertaking was forced to
be abandoned only for the reason
that the most powerful of the com
pany's snow plows was In the shops
being repaired.
Some Idea may be formed of the
manner In which snow packs Into the
cuts on the White Pass hill when It
requires three of the most powerful
narrow guage locomotives ever built
or operated io force the big rotary
snow plow through the solid mass ?
solid, almost, as the sand of a sea
beach. Yet with this snow packed
six to ten feet deep the rotary Is
practically driven through It with
sheer force. And even then, the loco
motives whose combined strength Is
practically Irresistible, are forced to
back up dozens of times before the
.??jolid mass in front yields and gives
way.
Ordinarily the wind in the neigh
borhood of the Summit is such that
the cuts are again full of solidly
packed snow within a few hours af
ter a right of way has been bored
through them as full and solidly pack
ed as though no train had penetrated
hem for a week.
When it Is considered that the
trains have been operated regularly
under these conditions and with mer
cury at from 40 to 60 degrees below
zero. It records a feat In railroad 'op
erating seldom equalled on the con
tinent.
That Supt Hahn has experienced
and indefatigable snow fighters on
his *taff goes without saying but
every "nasty" day sees the superln?
dent himself out In the "heat of the
battl~e" even if it Is cold enough to
freeze Perry Davis' Pain Killer. ?

VICISSITUDES OF
CITIES
Few of the world's great cities
have not faced, at one time or an
other, total destruction. But a city
Is hard to kill. Take Home, for in
stance. She has been swept by pes
tilence no fewer than ten times.
She has been twice buried and six
times driven to submission by starva
tion. Perhaps It is on account of
her great vitality that slur is called
the Eternal city.
Paris has gone through eight sieges
ten families, two plagues and one
fire, which devastated It. Constan
tinople has been burned out nine
times aud has suffered from four
plagues and five sieges. In addi
tion, she has boon ruled by monarchs
who were worse than a plague. Vet
Constantinople still flourishes.
London has been decimated five
times by plagues, In addition to visi
tations of typhus, cholera, and other
epidemics. She has been burned
more or less severely several times.
