Toronto Capitalist Criticises Action of the Railway People. Says Freight and Smelter Rates are Very Much Too High. Toronto, Jan. 18.���The Toronto News publishes the folio.ving intoi- vlew witb Mr. George Gooderham. on the freight situation, as it affects Southern British Columbia: "If the Canadian Pacific railway does not reduce its freight rates on ore, all the mines in British Columbia, whicli are subject to the tolls of that corporation, will have to be shut down eventually." "And that means that the War Eagle will discontinue operations, sooner or later?" "Assuredly, the War Eagle as well as others." Such were the statements made hy Mr. George Gooderham, president of the War Eagle Mining company to a News reporter, and it accounts for the rapid fall iu that stock on the exchanges daring the past few days. The value of the stock has declined without apparent reason, and outside operators, when questioned, professed to be Ignorant of any reason for the fall. There was a rumor on the Btreet tbat the Oooderham-Blackstock sydnicate was at war with the Canadian Pacific railway and had threatened unless that corporation showed more liberality in its freight charges on ore, that it would withdraw all its Interests from British Columbia. Mr. Gooderham was questioned as to the truth of this report. "Well, we cunt say we'll withdraw our interests at ���present," be said, "hut you can say f.iis���We will not proceed any farther with our investments unless the Canadian Pacific railway gives us better treatment. The object of the company now Is to get as much as they can without making us operate - the mines at a loss. We do not propose to submit to this. In addition to the high freight charges, the rates for treatment of ore at the Trail smelter, which is owned by the Canadian Pacific railway company, aro excessive. We made an offer for the purchase of the Trail smelter, but the Canadian Pacific railway company demanded from 9600,000 to 8800,000 for it, a price we regard as too high by at least 25 per cent. They have also refused to meet us in the reduction of freight rates.'' "Then, if you fail to come to an agreement with the Canadian Pacific railway, as to the purchase of the smelter, and as to the froight rates on the* ore, the War Eagle will have to shut down?" "Ye, baldly stated, that will be the result," answered Mr. Gooder- hoiu; "but I think that tho publication of soch a statement will have a bad effect on tbe stock. Ihe brokers would take advantage of It to hammer down the stock " After further discussion. Mr. Good- erham concluded: "1 think the Canadian Pacific railway company, will yield, as great pressure is being brought to bear on it." THEY CAPTURED HIM. Slgmund Hertz Arrested at Qtieens- towu Charged With Forgery. Queenstown, Jan. 18.���Tho Allan line steamer Corinthian, Captain Hnn- ey, which left Halifax, Monday, Jan. 7, for Queenstown and Liverpool, arrived here at 10 o'olock lust evening with some difficulty. Sigmund Hertz, of New York City, for whoso extradition the United States authorities are asking on charges of forgery is on board. His wife accompanied him. They were the enly pussengcrs booked for Queenstown. They were transferred to the tender and Hertz was immediately arrested by three detectives. When charged with forgery Hertz merely replied: "I know nothing about It." Ho had given his name in the passenger list as "Henry Enden" and h�� described himself ns a merchant. Hertz will bo charged before a magistrate this morn'ng. It is believed that he possesses a largo sum of money and a quantity of bonds, tbe .proceeds of forgery, but the police search discovered nothing. MURDER ON A TRAIN. London, Jan. 18,���A sensational murder won committed yesterday afternoon on a train of the London and South Western railroad. The murderer, said in some quarters to be an American, entered at East Leigh the car occupied by Mrs. King of Southampton and Pearson of-Winchester. When passing Surbiton the man drew a revolver, killed Pearson and wounded Mrs. King in the cheek. He then rifled the pockets of Pearson. The murderer jumped out of the train at Vauxhall and was .pursued and captured. APPEAL FOR YEOMANRY. Lord Huberts Asks For a Prompt Response. London, Jan. 18.���Lord Roberts, who was entertained privately at dinner last evening by the United Service Club,' the guests including the Prince of Wales, the Duke of York, the Duke of Cambridge and some three hundred officers, has issued from the war office a stirring appeal to the country for a prompt response to the call for 5,000 yeomanry, for whose past services in South Africa be highly commends the gratitude of the nation. The authorities continue to hold a hopeful view as to the South African situation but they seem to recognize that vigorous measures are necessary. The proclamation of martial law throughout most the whole of Cape Colony, Lord Kitchener's strong measures against the population of the republics, the placing on reduced rations of tbe wives of the men on commando,and similar measures go to show that tbeie is still heavy work ahead. British offensive operations have ceased for the present. It is supposed that Lord Kitchener is collecting his strength for a final effort to crush or trap the commandoes by a repetition of the tactics which caused the surrender of General Cronje and General Prlnzloo. It is alleged that the Boers who are concentrating at Warola aad Ermenlo are preparing to descend into Natai. The casualty list issued yesterday shows that the Boers have released 297 British who were captured at Helvetia and Belfast. The reports regarding the captures at Belfast have not yet been allowed to transpire. It is asserted that more heavy naval guns will be landed at the cape. Information as to the doings of the invaders is hard to obtain, but it is clear they are getting very little help from the Dutch. Twioe they attempted to capture Barkly East, but both times they were repulsed. For three days they occupied Soutberland but,they cleared out on the approach of a* British column. Small scattered parties are reported operating in various parts of Cier's district. Apparently the invaders abandoned the idea of attacking Clan William on finding the town well defended. A commando of 1,000 has been active in the Richmond district but there the Boers have secured only 100 Dutch recruits. REPULSED THE BOERS. British Beat Off an Attack Made By 1,000 Boers. Standcrton, Wednesday, Jan. 10.��� Colvllle's mobile column marching from New Denmark to Vlaglacht was attacked by 1,000 Boers divided into two forces. One force made a determined attempt on the baggage and the other on the cavalry constituting the rearguard. The cavalry were compelled to retire under protection of four companies of rifles hidden behind a ridge who were waiting with bayonets. The Boers then made a speedy retreat leaving several dead and wounded from the heavy British fire. Eventually both attacks were repulsed, tbe Boers losing heavily. The British wei'M not able to pursue the Boers owing to the necessity of protecting their baggage. Their casualties were one killed and 15 wounded. ROUTED THE BOERS. New Zeuluuders and Bushmen Make a Vigorous A.tack. London, Jan. 18.���General Kitchener, telegraphing from Pretoria under date of today, says Colonel Grey with New Zelandors and bushmen has vigorously attacked the enemy eight miles west of Ventersburg and completed routed the Boers. General Kitohenei adds details of tbe lnsigaifl- cent casualties of both forces, and continues, 'Colvllle's mobile column was attacked north of Standerton on January 17 by a concentration uf the enemy, who weie driven off with severe loss. Our casualties were 15 wounded and one killed," WILL ENTER MARCH 5TH. The Hague, Jan. 17.���The state entry of Queen Wilhelmina and tbe Prince Consort "into Amsterdam has been fixed for March 5th. This announcement seems to set at rest the recent Btories of disagreements as to settlements and citizenship. M'KINLEY'S CONGRATULATIONS. Berlin, Jan. 18.���United States AmbaBsdor White, at 11 o'clock this morning presented Emperor William, President McKinley's congratulations on the bl-century celebration of the coronation of tbe first king of J Prussia, WILL SOON BE READY TO WORK Cyanide Plant at Athabasca Almost Completed���Heating Plant In. Other Matters of Interest in Connection With Mining Affairs. The cyanide plant at the Athabasca mine is practically completed. Yesterday the steam heating apparatus for the cyanide building arrived here and today the first installment of the pipe and fixtures went up tbe hill. Mr. Fell, manager of the Athabasca, informs Tbe Miner that the addition of the heating apparatus will complete the work on the building. The inference is tbat the cyanide plant will be in operation shortly, and the Athabasca will then have one of the few complete reduction works in the Kootenays. ��� ��� ��� MAY AND JENNIE. First Shipment of Plant Delivered at Siding Today. The first shipment of plant for the May and Jennie mine was delivered by the C. P. R. at Granite Siding today. This is the initial outfit of the mill machinery from Fraser & Chalmers, tbe big Chicago firm. Considerable work has been done at the property in the directiou of preparing the ground for tbe mill building. The wagon road connecting the May and Jennie with the terminus of the Royal Canadian road is in excellent condition and the machinery can be placed on the ground with. ease. ��� ��� ��� PARADISE CLAIM. John Miles Believes He Has One of the Best on the Creek. John Miles, owner of the Paradise claim on Forty-Nine creek, is in the oity today. He states that the devlop- ment of the claim is proceeding steadily, a distance of 50 feet having been reached in the tunnel. The vein has widened out to six feet and Miles believes his proposition is one of the biggest things on the creek. The samples of ore brought into the city today are unusually fine specimens of free milling rock. At the Republic adjoining the Paradise, Joe Duhamel and a couple of men are at work. ��� �� ��� MARKS' CALIFORNIA Reaches a Stage Which Makes Regular Shipments Possible. 'A. J. Marks has a crew of men at work on the California property back of New Denver. The mine Is 3,500 feet above the level of the town and has been developed to a stage where ore could be shipped regularly. The expense of pucking down the hill is excessive, however, and it is unlikely that shipments will be made this winter. Before another season rolls around it is probable the mine will be equip ped with a tramway which will reduce tbe charges for handling ore to the shipping point from 812 to 81.25, a very material reduction. The Call- fonla is looking well and promises to develop into a very valuable proposition. ��� * * ON THE TAMARAC MINK. Rapidly Nearing Producing Stage and Much Oro in Sight. 0. II. Master, superintendent of the Tamarac mine at Ymir. was in tho city over night en route to Rossland on business in connection with the property. The Tamarao is rapidly nearing the producing stage and the management figure that before this time next month ore will be moving from tho mine to reduction works at Silica or elsewhere as may be arranged. The tramway now In course of construction by B. 0, Riblot under the direction of P. Lemleux is rapidly nearing completion. The cables are stretched and both ore bins are almost finished. It is likely that any delay In the commencement will be due to the Nelson & Fort Sheppard people failing to complete the spur from the mainline to the terminus of the tramway. Grading has been started on this work but this and the laying of the steel is likely to take some time. At the mine everything is In shape for sloping and whon the shipping facilities are available the crew will be increased and ore taken out at a lively rate. Considerable money has been expended in opening up the property, the main tunnel being in 600 feet and other development work on a good scale whicli demonstrates the presence of an ore body of sufficient dimen sions to keep up shipments for a considerable period without further work, althongh, of course, the company proposes to keep its development well in advance of the, mining operations. Tbe values aret carried in arsenical pyrites and a conservative estimate of the entire ore body places tbe average values at 810 and on this basis the property can be worked at a good profit. Eventually the company purposes installing a cyanide plant for the purpose of treating the ore on the ground. MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS. Several Cities in B. C. Choose Mayors and Aldermen.

C.P.R. Barges Bring Ship Tonnage Away Up���Figures For It. Nelson's importance as a shipping center is very generally overlooked and the majority of The Miner's readers will probably be surprised to learn that in the statement of vessels, British and foreign, employed in the coasting trade of Canada, arriving and departing from Canadian ports as compiled in tbe trade and navigation returns last issued by the government, Nelson comes third in the Dominion. For the purpose of comparison the figures for tbe three leading ports are appended: VESSELS ARRIVED. Ports. No. Craft Tons Crews Montreal 3,340 1,460,404 58,155 Vancouver.. .2,107 429,050 31,406 Nelson 1,854 646,450 31,294 Under the head of "Vessels Departed," practically the same figures are repeated. The totals represent the movemenets and tonnage of the 18 or 20 certified craft which ply on Kootenay lake. In view of these facts it Is not surprising that W. W. Stumbles, special commissioner for British Columbia representing the department of marine and fisheries, spent several days here in November securing information regarding Nelson's shipping*, interests and receving suggestion from local steamboat men as to improvements desired. Mr. Stumbles returned to Ottawa with the intention of recommending two important features for Kootenay lake. One of these was the replacing of the old platform and cage buoys now employed In the west arm with modern tubular buoys of steel. The channel between Nelson and the Outlet changes regularly with the seasons and is as tortuous as the average river channel, which justifies the department in adopting every precaution to protest lake craft. By reason of its Indestruetihle nature and the fact that It cannot upset is the present buoys are prone to do. thu tubular buoys will be a step In the right direction. There seems to he i 0 doubt in the mind of steumbout men tbat the change will be mnde a few months hence. Further than this the commissioner was impressed with the necessity of establishing a lighthouse on Cape Horn in the Pilot Ray section and It is quite probable that this will be done in the near future, Capo Horn projects into the lake at a point where the sweep of tho wind from the south und of tho lake hns a tendency to dash steamers against the rocky shore of the cape, and the mariners would be relieved from much anxiety if the point wns marked hy a light. The understanding Is that the department of murine and fisheries Is to locate nn olllcei permanently In this province, und In this event It Is thought that little difficulty will he encountered in securing a resident board of examiners for the Kootenay, Arrow and Slocan lakes. KILLED FOUR MEN. Head-on Collision on the Grand Trunk In Maine. Norway. Maine, Jan. 18.���A head on collision between freight tialns on the Grand Trunk railway near Locke's mills enrly toduy resulted iu the death ot four men, the serious Injuring of several others, und the demolition of four locomotives and 12 cars.

It was a oompliment to be proud of, that paid by Hon. John Gould, of the dairy department of the United States agricultural bureau, to the dairymen of Canada, in an address delivered to dairymen at London, Ont., yesterday. Mr. Gould maae the statement that Canadians were the best dairymen in the world. We had always believed that Canadians excelled at almost everything they put their hands to, bat it is especially pleasing to find that there are men of other nations who also recognize our good points. Tonight the Sandon hockey team comes to Nelson to test their skill against that of tbe hockey players of Nelson. The attendance at the rink to witness tbe match should be large. The home players should be encouraged and the visiting sportsmen should be shown that Nelson takes an interest in her athletic young men. In this connection it is not out of place to refer to the carnivals to be given at Sandon and Rossland In the near future. To both of these events Nelson should send her most skilled ourlers, hockey players and skaters, and thereby lend her aid toward the success of the efforts of the people of our neighboring towns. On July 1 of each year we send out invitations to all the people of the Kootenays to come and make merry with us. If we accept their invitations at other seasons of the year they will accept ours on Dominion Day and the day following and the spirit of good-fellowship will be abroad in the land. Let Nelson send us many people as it can and as much money as it can afford to the celebrations of our neighbors. The announcement that Madame Albani is to favor Nelson with her presence next April was undoubtedly read with a great deal of pleasure by Nelson people yesterday. As Canada's gruutust songstress she should be doubly welcome in every town that she will visit in the Dominion. YOU BET IT IS. Nelson, B. C., must be a prosperous sort of a town. At Christmas an enterprising Nelson firm offered a turkey free to every poor person who applied for it, and only six persons took advantage of the offer.

THE WAYFARING MAN Though a fool Would Have to Draw the Same Conclusion. " 'Coffee soup1 was a common dish on our table during my boyhood. My family were farmers and we used to have early breakfast, then a lunch at 10 and at 3 p. m., beside the regular meals. We always had the coffee pot on the Btove and 'coffee soup' was a regular part of each meal. "I very well remember when 11 yeais old, overhearing my teacher say of me, 'the most nervous child I ever saw.' I was a constant sufferer with dyspepsia, sour stomach and indigestion in its worst form, belching, etc. Finally a liver tronble came on and I had three different atacks of gall stone. "In addition to this I was a complete nervous wreck, sleeping hut very little at night. I was thin, sallow, and exhausted, with a bllllous complexion. After all these years of suffering, when I reached the ago of thirty it gradually dawned on rae, three years ago, that I was a coffee fiend and a coffee wreck. "Some one told me to quit coffee and go to using Postum Food Coffee. I am .'. professional man now, dulnp; i largo amount of mental work. Within u Bhort time after leaving off coffeo and taking Postum Food Coffeo, 1 began to linprovo. Now I nm proud to say tbat the indigestion and dyspepsia have disappeared. The liver and stomach are sound. I sleep 1 ileu a log and have gnlnt'd thirty pounds in flash, "My spirits are at the top notch. I nm fresh, rugged, and rosy. The old dull, sallow complexion is gone. My habits ore in every particular tho same, as in the years before, except that I have abandoned the coffee habit for all time. Am I not right in drawing tho conclusion that the wayfaring man, though a fool, would have to draw, that the change Is en- tliely due to leaving off coffee and tho use of Postum Food Coffee? "I have a friend, Mr. Frank Fnr- bush, who was as bad a wreck as I, with like symptoms, plus excessive nausea and vomiting. Six month, of no coffee and the use of Postum has put him right. He Is now as fresh as a new born babe. His wife, who was also a sufferer from coffee, has recovered, and they are both in a fine condition of health, but I was compelled to hold a coffin before them, boforo I could scare The playeis for tonight have been finally selected as follows: Goal, Neelands; point, Archioald; cover, C. Jeffs; forwards, Wetmore (captain) Perrier, Nace and Joe Thompson. "Bob" Carley will probably be selected to referee the game. The match commences promptly at 8:30 o'clock and the admission is 25 cents. CDRLING CLUB MEETING. Mayor Fletcher Will Give Prizes in a New Tournament. The curling club meeting took place last night and was well attended. In opening Mayor Fletcher volunteered to present individual prizes to the members of the rink winning in a new tournament. The offer was promptly accepted and the drawings for the series will be made shoitly. The club also resolved to give a consolation prize to be played for by the teams defeated in the first series. Invitations were received from bon- splcl committees at Golden and Sandon requesting Nelson to send rinks to the competitions. The members conclnded that Golden was too distant for Nelson to enter, but will he represented at the Sandon carnival. As many rinks as can be formed will go to Sandon and all players who will be in a position to take in the trip are requested to send in their names.

Iloshee, a celebrated German Physician, and is acknowledged to be one of the most fortunate discoveries in Medicine. It quickly cures Coughs, Colds and Lung troubles of the severest nature, removing, as it does, the cause of the affec- ton and leaving the parts in a strong and healthy condition. It is not an experimental medicine, but has stood' the test oi years, giving satisfaction in every case, which its rapidly increasing sale every season confirms. Two million bottles sold annually. Bosche's German Syrup was introduced in the United States in 1868, and is now sold in every town and village in the civilized world. Three doses will relieve any ordinary cough. Price 75 cents.

All day long yesterday crowds were waiting in the parlors of Rheo, the palmist. It seemed as though everybody was restless to have their palms read, and one after another the long string passed through the consultation room, the majority emerging witb broad smiles on their faces. Many were turned away, unable to see the noted palmist. There is nothing of the gypsy about Rheo's remarkable readings. Her fee is 81.00 for a life reading, and the truths Bhe tells you are so startling and they come in such quick rotation that one certainly gets his money'B worth from this standpoint alone. She also tells you what you are best fitted for in life and whether or net you will be successful; If you should make business changes; if you will travel; If you will bo successful in lova affairs If absent friends will return; so, from a financial standpoint, one gets his mnnoy's worth and Rheo gets the money.

Episode 1366 – May 22nd Story Update:
Part 1:
Selva shakes Paati and she wakes up weakly. Selva reprimands her about leaving home without telling anyone and asks her to come home and asks Shankar to inform everyone that she is found. Paati says she won't come home until Dharma come and says either he should come or she should die. Selva scolds her for being so stubborn. But Paati doesn't agree to move even a bit and lies down again. Mahi calls Selva and Selva say about Paati being so stubborn and asks him if he will talk. Mahi says he will call back in a while and hangs up.
Selva waits for his call and after few mins Mahi calls back and says he put everyone in conference call and asks to on the speaker mode. Selva does and Mahi asks Paati about coming back. Meanwhile Devi says that she won't get sreemantham done until she come back and won't even eat and everyone else start repeating the same and at last Muniyamma too. Paati gets up saying shut up silly woman.
Part 2:
Mahi says to come back silently. Paati says this is blackmail. Devi says they all mean it and that they panicked since morning that she is missing. Durga and Eshwar too repeat the same. Paati gets emotional for their care and agrees to come back home.
Selva brings Paati home and Eshwar, Durga, Sindhu and Pallavi go running to her and hug her. Devi too hugs Paati. Paati thinks that all these kids did all this for her and feels happy. Mahi in tamil says if Paati did all this one more time he wouldn't spare her. Paati caressing him says she got it and hugs him. Satya, Shanti, Keerthana see this from upstairs.
They take Paati in and she seeing Shanti asks how she is. Shanti says she is fine and asks her to sit. They all sit down in the hall.
Part 3:
Rajani asks Paati to take rest but Paati says seeing the kids' love on her, it's like getting a rebirth and that she understood now how an iota of love brings back loads of it. She says that she understood that love gives love and similarly hate gives hate. Mahi sitting beside Paati says her to be happy as she changed now. Paati says she changed coz of him the very moment when she knew that Mahi saved Selva despite knowing that he became an orphan due to them Devi and Shanti look at Mahi in appreciation. Paati continues that Sindhu and Pallavi too taught her what love is.
Paati asks Keerthana and Sindhu not to worry about Dharma saying they are very good people and doesn't know anything except giving love and if Dharma didn't come, God doesn't exist and assures them that God will surely bring Dharma. Keerthana and Sindhu look at each other with hope.
Next morning… Ali, Anji, Mohan, Durga, Eshwar, Sindhu, Anju keep making arrangements for Devi's sreemantham having fun among themselves. Eshwar sits in the chair brought for Devi and Durga and others start throwing flowers at Eshwar as if it's his function and Eshwar keeps pushing them away laughing.
Pallavi and Rajani get Devi ready. Screen freezes on Devi.
Coming up:
Devi coming down for the function.

Timeline: Twenty-Two
This follows on from Twenty-One, and before that, Twenty, and before that, Nineteen, and before that, Seventeen & Eighteen, and before that, Sixteen, and before that, Fourteen & Fifteen, and before that, Twelve & Thirteen, and before that, Eleven, and before that, Seven Through Ten, and before that, Zero Through Six.
2002, aged twenty-two: I am living in London by myself, in my last year of university. Living by myself suits me far more than I ever thought it would: the milk in the fridge is mine and only mine, and I never have to worry about someone else being in the shower when I need it. My flat is three floors up in a rickety birdcage elevator, and one evening I forget to shut the curtains before I fall asleep and a riotous dawn wakes me up by washing the whole of London in pinks and oranges, and I raise my groggy head from my pillow, incredulous at the city's silhouettes.
I throw parties that have the neighbors banging on the walls, and I spend whole weekends hunched over my computer writing essays on the topography of London in post-modern literature, leaving the flat only to buy a baguette from the bread shop across the street and a Sunday paper from the newsagent next door. Living alone, I think, I could get used to this. But Sean is all the way across the world in San Diego, and when he comes to visit, we go to the supermarket together like a normal couple, and drag my clothes to the laundromat in garbage bags, and paint my tiny kitchen yellow and my tiny bathroom a pale lavender, and I think I don't want to live alone. I want to live with him.
Spring comes and with it, my university finals, the most important exams of my life. My brain becomes a finely-tuned machine. I surprise myself with my focus, how hard I convince myself to work. Days I spend at the British Library, nights hunched over my living room table with a highlighter. Slowly, my kitchen cupboards get wall-papered with Post-It notes, quotes from Shakespeare overlapping with quotes from Elizabeth Bishop and Jack Kerouac and Mark Twain and George Eliot and Philip Larkin, and at night I dream in rhyming couplets, consumed with themes and motifs. I am focused on one thing and one thing only: to get a First. I have to get a First.
In the beginning, I think the pain is toothache. I go to the dentist, who sees nothing. The pain gets worse, and one Saturday morning, I take a break from my exam revision and walk the fifteen minutes to the emergency clinic and see a kindly gruff old doctor who prescribes me a course of antibiotics. The pain goes away for a week and then the pain comes back, and this time I run to the emergency clinic, the pain is that bad, and I get more antibiotics but the pain doesn't stop, the pain wakes me up at night, and again I go back to the dentist, who sees nothing.
I stop sleeping because the pain is so awful. It starts in my jaw and then it creeps around to my temple, my eye, my ear, my head, my neck, my back, my arm, and I go back to the kindly gruff old doctor, wait an hour to see him, but the kindly gruff old doctor isn't on duty today and instead I get a hard shiny penny of a woman, a brittle bitch in a black business suit who looks at me in disgust when I start to cry. The pain is just so bad, I tell her, and nothing's working, no-one knows what it is. She tells me it's my teeth, that I should go to the dentist. It's not my teeth, I sob, and then I tell her that I'm desperate, that I don't know what to do with myself, that sometimes the pain is so bad that all I want to do is jump out of my third-floor window to get it to stop. Make a dentist's appointment, she says, turning back to her paperwork. Nothing I can do to help.
I go home and I read more Shakespeare and I take as much ibuprofen as a person is legally allowed to take and one night, I wake up at 3am in so much pain, that I am convinced I'm going to die. I sit up in bed and I get the phone and I dial my parents' home number in Singapore and I think I give up. I am twenty-two and I am living alone in London and all I want at that very moment is my mother, and my mother says do you need me to come? do you want me to get on a plane? and I know I should say no, it's too far, it's too much money, it's a 14-hour flight, but I can't say no because all I want is someone to let me surrender, and so I surrender and I say yes.
Eventually, months later---after my exams are over, after I've stood in front of the bulletin board in the English department, bursting with joy over my First---I will see a doctor (a dentist, ironically) who diagnoses me with a chronic TMJ disorder, but no-one knows this yet, so for now my pain is just unnamed and insurmountable. Not even twenty-four hours after calling my mother in Singapore, I open the door of my apartment in London, and there she is, jetlagged and smiling and smelling of home, and all I can feel is the purest, deepest, most wonderful sense of relief.

text: The first of the Locos from Leeds for the May 16/17 Gala has arrived at Apedale. This one is Hudson LX1001. This loco was originally built as a twin to the Trust's existing Hudson loco – Chaumont. Both are said to have been delivered to the CEGB at Woodhead cable tunnels, but were soon rejected due to their slow speed. LX1001 then seems to have been with a contractor in King's Lynn, then a pleasure railway at Pendine in South Wales. One assumes that it gained the steam outline body at that point. It then spent a while at the Devon Railway Centre before moving to a private railway in Leicestershire. The owner told us he hadn't run it for some years! Loading it proved to be slightly fraught due to very low ground clearance meaning the loco kept grounding on the rather steep ramp. We learnt from that at the other end of the operation, and used a very shallow angle at Apedale. Within twenty minutes of arrival, a new battery was found, and the oil and fuel checked. Crank the engine – a slight reluctance, but then it ran just fine. Checking the oil and fuel seems to involve dismantling a fair bit of the body, and the dome falling off onto the CME did little to endear the loco to him, but he seemed to relax after a drive. Quite how long the softwood body will survive remains to be seen, but it's certainly a head turner at the moment. All being well, it will be in operation in May. Advance tickets are now on sale here. As ever, get in touch here.
