Scjfjflfili Train. Firi "JiATY FLYER" AfJD JlTY ZimUZ STATIONS. How Would yfla like to rida over a railroad at eighty mfles an hemr, over bridges, around curves and down grades fof the purpose of testing the track. That fs what a crew of trainmen on the Burlington road Is doing almost daily. Recently the management of this to ascertain whether a railroad was in nt condition was to run a train over I the line at the maximum speed with our regard to signals or notices of any kind.

Accordingly one of the heaviest en gines of the Chicago division, with the heaviest coach, was selected make almost daily trips over the Chi cago section of the system. This en gine, with its dare devil crew, now departs form the Western avenue yards of the company in Chicago almost every day without orders, but wjth instructions to run at the maxi- I mum sneed as fast as the wheels will turn, over straight track, around curves, over bridges and down the grades. The testing train is an absolute nov elty In railway operation, and the fact that It has been running over the Bur lington has been kept secret by the management of the road. Recently the testing train, it is re ported, struck a bad piece of track on the Chicago division. Just west of Hinsdale and tore up 1,000 feet of ex tra fine roadbed.

While the engine and coach of the testing train are said to have left the track, neither turned over, and the crew escaped injury. The officers of the Burlington do not demand service of their employes in this train, but ask for volunteers. The object of the operation of the train is to test the track, bridges and general roadbed with a train of the maximum weight run at a maximum (speed, and the purpose of the man agement Is to ascertain, in a nazard made in the Interest of the public as a protective "measure, Nothing like this "test" train has ever been attempted before by any railroad In the world. it la the Intention of the BuTIington management to extend the work of its "test" to every division of the Hill system R.

There Is no class of citizenship but what is benefited directly or Indirect ly by Good Roads. The farmer, that he may come to a ready market to sell his products; the merchant In the city who desires the farmer to to town to sell mm his gooas; me manu- ficturer in the town remote from sea- board or railroad, in turn can haul his coal and raw material at a lessened cost, and carry his finished product for transportation, will be aided by Good Roads. Good Roads make a country district more easy of access ana tne territory Decomes more inhabitable thereby. Good roads places the farmer at all times In touch with life and trade and makes him able to produce and sell at fair competition.

It makes litle difference how valu able the soil of a farm, how productive the crops, if the highway over which a man must carry the results of his labor be well nigh impassable for ruts, mud, sand or rock. He would be compelled to reckon in the cost of production the wear and tear of wagon, harness, horses, time lost In transportation and damage to crops, especially if they be fruit He could not place his goods on the market at the' same price as the man who lived near at hand to railroad train or ready market Bed roads shut the fanner out of competition, and he sells his goods at lower price, and he must stand the loss; and moreover, he Is deprived of the chance to take advantage In the rise and fall of the market Good roads, to sum up the matter shortly, make land more accessible and to give it a wider market; they increase the deslrablility of living in the rural district; they lessn, materially, tha cost of production of decreasing the cost of transportation, In wear and tear, and time, they bring with them the rural delivery system and enhance the value of tlie rural Liiii or Ammo'i ia Q.
