THE. TAHOMA 9 1 4' 1V iierarg I l i A ivy ag s ' BETH CLAY Literary Editor The Music of the Spheres Arvid Dahlgren, 'I 3 If you should happen down to the roundhouse some night at, say, about 8 o'clock, an hour or so before engine No. 3024 pulling the Northern Limited shrieks into Fleetwood, where it is relieved by No. 3026, you may, if you are lucky, hear a story called The Race, that thing or accident which the news- paper men so aptly labeled The Mystery of the Overturned Locomotive. And as you listen to the driver of 3026, Michael Macline, who sits perched up on the deck of his big prairie Hyer, a misty shadow in the soft gloom of the roundhouse, whose darknesses are intensified by the soft burr of the oil burners and the song of the safety valves, a strange admiration wells up within you for the rail demons who make it a business to urge on their engines to speed ever greater, and, having attained it, are not satisfied but must needs make more. Flynn Burman entered the roundhouse as a sweeper, performer of endless menial tasks. Shortly after he was promoted to wiper: eventually he became a fireman, going over to the right hand side of the cab a few months later as the result of a sudden increase in traffic. A disastrous passenger wreck in which both engineers with their firemen were killed gave him control of the Northern Limited, the North-North Railroad Company's crack flyer, a position he main- tained until-well until his race was run.
