New York, July 25.—it was long aft- er midnight tonight before the foderal mediators who are irying to bring the eastern railroads and their trainmen together on an arbitration agreement conciuded their long day of labor.

Further meetings of the mediators with both the trainmen's and the manufacturers’ commitiees are sched- uletd for tomorrow. _ The government officials are hurry- ing the course of the negotiations as much as possible, as it appeared that many of the trainmen’s committee of 100 are growing impatient at the ai- ready long delay in framing the arbi- tration stipulation.

PERSONALITIES. Recently there died in New York George W. Quintard, who was largely responsible for the building of the fa- mous ironclad, monitor, during the civil war. He was born in Stamford, Conn., and in 1847 entered the em- ploy of the Morgan iron works in New York and three years later became a co-partner with Charles Morgan. Af- ter Gideon Wells, secretary of the , had refused to have anything to do with the plane for the Monitor, pre- |sented by John Ericsson, the inventor, |Mr. Quintarg’s firm constructed the |ship. He was 91 vears old at the time of his death. For thirty-six years John Mao-Con- nell of Lords Vailey, Pa., has followed {the unique and hazardous vocation of rattlesnake hunter, until now he claims | for himself the title of “Rattlesnake King” of the state. Since he first be- igan to penetrate the swamps and thickets of the country he has killed over 7,000 rattlers, and distributed gallons of oil extracted from the car- casses. The skin he tans and sells, to be used in the manufacture of purses, belts, hatbands and other curiosities. King Alfonso of Spain is a good trencherman but by no means a gour- met, beefsteak and roast chicken— flanked by plenty of bread—being his [favorite dishes. When asked to dine lat the Spanish embassy at the time of |his trip to Vienna, the king begged his host to see that a crusty loaf and a large jug of water were near his place at table. “In Berlin, Paris and Lon- don,” he added, “I had frequently to go short of the two things I like best at my meals—bread and water.” BREVITIES. There is probably no more impervi- ous, serviceable waterproof than the raincoats and cloaks of Mitgumata paper made from the leaves and stems of a small shrub which grows in the mountains of Japan. Until one of the experts of tha department of agricul- ture discovered it a few years ago its existence was unknown to the outside world. The plant thrives in_some mountainous portions of the United States. In the southern states alone negroes are proprietors of 10,000 general stores, 300 pharmacies, and fifty-seven bank- ing institutions. In the entire country they own 20,000,000 acres of land end more then 600,000 houses. The earliest successful locomotive in England was completed just 100 years ago. It was named Puffing Billy. The owner was warned that “if the noise of the engine disturbs the cattle graz- ing in the lands adjacent to the wagon way (railway), so as to put them off their feed, it may be considered a nuisance.” Explaining His Absence.
