From the Cleveland Leader. A certain physician of this city, who never neglects an opportunity to study the traits of the people among whom his busi- ness takes him, has been making some ob- servations recently that may serve as a basis for estimating the character of the average modern American. “I have to travel on street cars a good deal,” the physician said, in explaining his course of procedure, “and I hear all kinds of people talk. A short time ago I thought I would keep a record of the words most frequently used ple of all classes. “ft omit names, profanity and vulgarity, but otherwise this list, which represents one week's street car conversation, Is abso- lutely correct.

Paine Was in Virginia When He Was Informed of His Wife's Ines. ‘ Sped Back on Specialn—In Wilmington He Learned That She Was No More, but His Efforts Did Not Cease. From the New York Herald. One of the most remarkable races against fate on record was run and lost Tuesday night and in the early hours of yesterday morning. Robert Treat Paine, a Boston | millionaire, was traveling toward Wash- ingtcn on a train of the Southern railroad when he recetved a telegram advising him of the serious illness of his wife in Boston. At the next station at which a stop was made a telegram Was sent to the officials of the railroad company in Washington asking them to have a special sent at once to meet him on the arrival of his train at Manassas, Va., to bear him to Washing- ton. In addition to ordering the special sent to meet him at the Virginia town, Mr. Paine telegraphed to have in readiness a special train to convey him at top speed from the station at Gth and B_ streets, Washington, to the station in Jersey City. His instructions were carried out, and when he arrived at Manassas a special was waiting for him. His Race Begun. Mr. Paine jumped from the platform of the Southern to the steps of the special, giving the order to-go ahead at such speed as the engine could make. A clergyman friend accompanied him. The conductor was instructed to tell the engineer to make the effort of his life. The fires had received the most careful attention and the engi- neer had a clear track. Such speed as never before had been heard of over thos: sleepy Virginia rails was attained. As a consequence, the dome of the Capitol was sighted at twenty-five minutes past o’cleck Tuesday night, and the specia dashed into the station five minutes later. The time of the regular train on which Mr. Paine had first been a passenger had been beaten by one hour and twenty minutes “Two dollars a mile and a handsome re ward for the men that get me into Jers City in less time than it ever has been done before!” Mr. Paine shouted, as he swung himself on the sieps of the fresh special, and motioned for E. Vaughn, the engineer. to start. Vaughn turned the lever, and the engine, No. 911, one of the fastest in the service, started on the run toward Jer- sey City, 228 miles away. it was half-pasi 10 o'clock when the spe- cial rushed into Wilmington, Del., and a telegram tame ticking over the wires for Mr. Paine. The yellow paper told him of the death of his wife, but he gave no or- ders to slacken speed. Gray’s Ferry reached at two minutes to 11 o'clock, and a few minutes were con- sumed in letting the journals cool. Then the race was resumed, and no other stop was made until Jersey City was reached. | It was 1:12 o'clock y morning | when Mr. P stepped train in} Jersey City. » 228 miles from Washing- | ton had been covered in four hours and | thirty-six minutes. Mr. Paine had to wait only three minutes for a boat across the Desbrosses street ferry. In the short time between the arrival of the train in Jersey City and the departure of the ferry boat he telephoned to this side for # carriage. the boat entered the Desbrosses street fifteen minutes after leaving the Jersey slip, Mr. Paine and the clergyman made a cash for the carriage, which was waiting.

The sleep- er is a big “twelve-wheeler.” Engine No. | Z31 is considered one of the fastest in the possession of the company. Only two min- ules were spent in getting the special ready for the race. The train dispatcher had taken every precaution to give the special the adva’ tege over other trains, but at junction drawbridges and at crossovers, places | where more quired to than ordinary care was re- be exercised, slowdowns were necessary. But for all this the run to New Haven was made in one hour and twenty two minutes, the actual running time, a lowing for the slowdowns and stops men tioned, being one hour and fifteen minute: Considering the darkness and fog and the urusual precautions that the trainmen had to take this is cOnsidered a remarkable performance. At New Haven a new set of trainmen took charge. An engine had been placed in | readiness, coaled and prepared to start without a second’s delay. Conductor Mo- roney was in charge of the second division, and gave the order to go ahead as soon as the change in engines had been effected. There was more delay during this part of the journey, and it was also impossible to make extraordinary time from New Lon- deft, where another change of engines took place, to the objective point. Mr. Paine reached Boston at 8 o'clock, and hurried at once to his wife's death chamber.

TRAVELING EXPENSES A Decision of Gregt Importance to Govern- ment Officials. + The Case of Labor Commissioner Wright Makes an Interesting Pre- cedent for Fature Rulings. In the last series of decisions of Judge Bowler, controller! of the treasury, is one, hitherto suppressed, of special interest to officials of the government located in Washington who afe in the habit of spend- ing their summers elsewhere. Briefly stated, the controller decides that an offi- cer whose office is at the seat of govern- ment is entitled to reimbursement for traveling expenses only when he is absent therefrom on official business, and if, when absent on a vacation, his official duties re- quire his presence in Washington, the travel from the place where he happens to be to Washington ard return is not travel upon official business. 2 The question arose in the case of iXr. Carroll D. Wright, commissioner of labor, in the consideration of vouchers amount- ing to $80 for his traveling expenses be- tween Marblehead Neck, Mass., and W ington, D. C. The accounts were held up by Auditor Holcomb, who inquired of Com- missioner Wright if the travel in question was “upon public business.” In reply, Mr. Wright assured the account- ing office: of the treasury that it w and in nowise t» accommodate him sonally. ‘‘Marblehead Neck.” he said, the residerce of my family during summer months, and I generally vacation there, but during the the pend my t sea- pa and almost son, on account of the severe fatal illness of the chief cierk, I wa obliged to make several trips to Washing- I never charge the expense of travel to and from Marblehead Neck when on my own effairs, nor do I when starting ov or returning from my vacation. “I have been able during the past sum- mer to save the department a good deal in the way of expense by being nearer th field of some of our operations and th« place of some conferences relative to offi- cial work which would otherwise necessi- tate special journeys from Washington. It has always been a matter of very strict observance with me to in no instance al- low a charge to be made against the de- partment when I was personally conve- nienced, and I often disallow hotel chi ton. when the same have been entirely on ac- count of the public service, and simply he- cause they were beyond the charges which would be zllowed for employes of the de- partment. I have felt that the charges re- ferred to by Mr. Holcomb were perfectly legitir ate and entirely proper, as one was made on account of public ness, and in no instance for my priv benefit. I should have been delighted to make them at all, as 1 rest which I have so long stood in 1 of, and which on account of public busi- ness I have not been able as yet to se- cure.”” not they prevented the The Auditor's Report. Auditor Holcomb referred the case to the controller of the treasury, with the follow- ing report: “It will be seen that Marbleh is thé residence of Col. Wrigit’s | during the summex. months and that he generally spends his vacation there. Here is clearly presented: the question whether or not the head of the department of labor is authorized to raravel at the ©: ense of the government ;fram his temporary re: dence to Washington return to the temporary residence whet ne public busi- ness or his duties call him to Washineton. Phe organic law dstablishing te depart ment of labor (25 Stat., 182) provides a follows: ‘There sail be at the seat of gov- ernment a department of labor,” and 2 of the same act provides for the appoint- to have Neck family ad and sioner of labor ment of a comm) bor to have charge of the department.
