It will be a new limited between New York and Chicago and will make the run In each direction in eighteen hours. In the recent whitewashing about the Erie shops, an experiment was made in using the lime out put from the water softener plant The lime proved to be of the best quality and answered the purpose well in coating the Interior of the shop buildings.

The School Boy Gang. A number of the school boys who put In their applications at the Erie at the close of school for summer positions have secured employment Of the high school boys, John Mc Arthur, Earl Herran, Ralph Dickin son, George Plumb, and Clint Mc Clure have been assigned to the back yard labor gang.

Several other of the boys have been offered employment but have not yet been assigned positions. At the close of the day's work most of the youngsters are glad to hear the evening whistle.

Blisters on their hands are not uncommon, but all seem satisfied with their various lots. The Machinists' Agreement. Master Mechanic Yergens and Ma chinist R. E. Esson have returned from Meadvllle, where they attended the annual conference at which time the agreements between the Erie machinists on the system and the management is decided upon.

The best of feeling existed throughout the ses sion. A number of Important mat ters were up for discussion but the results of this meeting cannot be defl nately determined until the Individual orders along the system have considered and voted their, acceptance or refusal of the propositions made. Present at this meeting" were Mechanical Supt G. W. WUdln and his assistants, T.

Rumney and H. W. Hunt every master mechanic on the system and representatives of all Erie machinist lodges Drink Lots of Water. The advent of the warmer weather has been decidedly noticeable in the amount of drinking water consumed at the Erie. In the car shops, John Gerdink has been kept busy filling the tank and keeping the Ice supplied and there has been a heavy drain on the tank in the mill The faucets in the back shops has been visited nearly every minute the last few days and at times three and four were waiting their turn for the dipper.

In the back yards and along track No. 18, where a large number of men have been tearing down cars, the water boys have been kept on the move all day. The company Is generous in regard to supplying the employes with good water and about the stationary water tanks every effort is made to keep the surroundings in a sanitary condition. Henry 81 1 vers Has. Henry Silvers purchased two of the condemned Erie cars Tuesday, and asked permission to tear them down on company property.

He was ac companied by four helpers and began early, thinking both cars could be demolished In half a day. At noon, the four men and Henry had made but a small Impression on one car and he decided to abandon his task and turn over the work to the Erie carpenters. He had hoped to save a large amount of the timber, but found that the timbers were so securely put together that it was almost an im possibility to get a whole board. Henry now has a better conception of the construction of railroad rolling stock and appreciates the fact that cars must be securely built to stand the heavy wear and tear of road life. Inside History.

The friction between George' J. Gould, who heads the men who own the Wabash and Western Maryland railroads, and Joseph Ramsey, who operated the Wabash road In the west is not personal. It found its origin in the impatience of the west era syndicate of capitalists who own an enormous tract of coal and timber land in the western part of West Vir ginfa. They compose what Is known as the Little Kanawha Syndicate, Their man at the front is Mr. Ramsey, and to him they looked for the devel opment of their property.

Even if the friction between the two syndi cates had never occurred It is doubt ful if Mr. Ramsey would have retained the presidency of the Wabash. The first sign of friction came a year ago, when Mr. Ramsey was succeeded in the presidency of the Western Mary land Railroad by Mr. Winslow W.

Pierce. This step was the first Indi cation Of a separation of the interests of the Eastern, or Gould, and West era, or Ramsey, syndicates. There was not a severance of their relations, Mr. Ramsey's retirement from the head of the Western Maryland Rail road meant that the two syndicates would pursue their respective develop ment along separate lines.

In falling he threw out his hands and the left one came in contact with the prongs of a pitch fork lying on the floor.

The sharp steel point entered the hand between the bases the first and second fingers and nearly punctured the skin on the top of the hand about two Inches farther back. The wound was given medical attention but since developed inflammatory conditions as a result of blood poisoning. The lad was brought to the office of Dr. Dippel Tuesday morning when the wound was opened again and thoroughly cleansed and treated. The hand is badly swollen and has caused the boy to suffer much pain.

A MASHED HAND. Andrews Carpenter Injured While Hand' ling Heavy Barn Timbers. John Brown, a carpenter living in Andrews, came to the city Tuesday morning with a badly. mashed hand, and visited Dr. W.

R. Beck for sur gical attention. He had been working on a large barn near Hanging Rock, in the eastern part of Wabash county, and In handling a large stick of timber ten inches square and fifteen feet long, his right hand was caught between the end of that and the side of another large timber.

HOME FROM OKLAHOMA. Robert A. Butler, of the Herald staff, returned Tuesday evening irom his trip to Oklahoma.
