Accordingly he went and stretched himself across the railâ€" way track just before the hour of the scheduled time for the arrival of the train. Later, the body of the unfor, tunate man was found.

While it is one of the comparatively modern (Anstitutions, few have made greater strides in development than it. | Some of our oldest inhabitants may still remember when the first steam locomotive was imported and tried out, (and undoubtedly many can recall the time when railWay service was very crude and meagre. Records show that the first railway charter in Canada was granted in 1832.. Jn 1836 the first railway, which was sixteen miles long, from La Prairie on the St. Lawrence to St. John on the Richelieu, was opened for traffic. The rails, unlike the solid steel ones of toâ€"day, weighing 100 lbs. to the yard, were of wood, with a strip of steel spiked on the top. The first year of operation, horses were used, but in 1837 a steam locomotive was imported and put into service _ Ten years later there were only 54 miles of road open for traffic. However, in 1853 there began a great era of railway construction;, brin%ing in its wake development and colonization. Toâ€"day the people of Canada, in thcilrdCanadian Nationalâ€"Grand Trunk Railways, own over 22,000 miles of road, the greatest railway system in the world. â€" With the passing of the years a#d the ever increasing mileage have also come many changes in raiiway equUiprment. From the rakish little engine used in 1853, modern invention has evolved the mighty Pacific type of locomotive, weighing 407,700 lbs., and having eight powerful driving wheels, 69 inches in diameter, used toâ€"day. Wooden construction has given way to solid strel construction, and toâ€"day the great transcontinental flier, ‘"The Continental Limited,"" operated by the Canadian National Railways, is equipped with practically all the comforts and conâ€" veniences of a modern hotel. This premier train provides a daily transcontinental service in both directions between Montreal and Vancouver, and is called *‘The Continental Limited," as signifying that it travels across the continent. To keep up this daily service via Ottawa, Winnipeg Saskatoon and Edmonton, it is necessary to maintain 14 trains, 10 of which are in active service all the time, the other four being used as guard trains. To equip the trains actively in service it takes 10 locomotives, 30 baggage or express cars, 10 colonist cars, 10 tourist cars, 26 standard sleepers, 10 dining cars and 10 observationâ€"compartment carsâ€"in all about $3,500,000 worth of equipment. A crew of 190 men is neesed to operate these trains.
