He spent tte greater partof tho day in consultation with a num ber of the leading republicans of the city, with a view to flnding out what were the dimensions of the republican folt which has been so freely prophesied by the democrats. He stated to a Ber reporter that he was mueh encouraged over the outlook. “1 am glad to see,” he said, “that the ro- publicans Who were said to be s trifle weak kneed earlier in the campaign, are gradually coming back into the camp, convinced of the uselessuess of trusting to the democratic party to bring about' any of the reforms Which they are 30 freo about udvocating, and of the foolishness of throwing to the winds the priveiples upon which the party has fought and won its battle: “1 am much encouraged over the outlook in this part of thostate.

THOUGHTS IN A Once T boarded in a house where | liked the people and the accommoda- tions first rate,” said a young man to a Chicago Post reporters, *‘but couldn’t got wlong a bit with the girl who at- tended the door bell and waited on table. She give me the worst of it at every possible opportunity, and as these bpportunities cropped up at each meal I soon got pretty sove at my petticonted persecutor, whom her sex alone protected from a corking good licking. 1 was always the last person at the table to get my dinner and when 1 got it T could count on its being a shade less desirable than the food served to the others. She was mighty vindictive, that girl, and in a_thousand ways made me so mad [ would have liked to bow- string her. “*At last I struck it. T had an electric bell in my room, and, watching my op- portunity, I disconnected the wire and attached it to the bell which reprosented the front door. Then when I would wake up of mornings I would reach out and press the button. The girl, of course, would hustle to the front door, and would find mobody. By and by I'd ring again, and yet again, When I had got tired of lying abed and touching the bell dbutton, I would get up and leisurely dress, ever and anon pausing to give tho bell a ring. ““The first morning [ did this I found the girl in a rage at_breakfast, and she proceeded to vent her spite on me. straightway made up my mind to make it interesting for her. So that afternoon I came home early and devoted several hours to reading, beguiling the todium with rings of the door bell every ten minutes. Then, when dinner time came I lingered to ring the bell a few times just as I reckoned she was about to be- gin her dining room work. “The whole thing was a glorious suc- cess. It lusted about a week, and at the end of that time the girl had grown so ill-tempered and quarrelsome that sho had had fights with everybody in the house, and the landlady, yielding to the popular demand, ‘fired’” her. Then I &-o ped back into my former mild be- havior and got along all right. It isn’t good to be naturally belligerent, but if oneis driven to bay 1t's good to know how to obliterate your foe.” * 5 A Chicago Game. STl bet T can drink more whisky than any other man on earth,” The spesker was a flashily dressed young man in a West Side saloon, says the Chicago Mail. “Even money and any amount that you can’t” said a tall Kentuckian. “Will $100 do?” “Yes, or twice that.” Two hundred goes, Jimmie set out your bottles. Who's going to drink Against me? “I am,” answered the Kentuckian. “Then here we go.” The barkeeper put two beer gla before them and took a quart bottle in each hand. From one he poured for the Kentuckian and from the other for hi antagonist. Both drank the first two glusses down without effort. Each glass held half a pint. In drinking the third the southerner gulped a littleand turned red, but the other drank his dose with- out'moving a muscle. At the fourth the Kentucky man’s hand shook and he spilled some liquor on the floor. The other man downed his in flash and said: “Come Jimmy.” Phe tall man gazed at him a moment in astonishment and then lurched to- and LIGHTER VE a on with another bottle, ward the door, saying, rdner, the mouey is yours. Good-by. After hé had gone the winner took the empty bottle out to a restaurant and got it refill He had been drinking cold tea against the other man’s whisky. * Ready to “Fit It Out.” In the forward end of a ear coming from Jerome park last eqening, says the New York Commercial Advertiser, were half a dozen young boys from 10 to 18 yenrs of age and a big coloved man with u face like a huge disk. The man sat in a seat back of the door and the boys stood around him. As the train started he drew from his pocket several dice, coal bluck, like himself, and the gamo known us “'craps’ began, He of the disk face won everything, and one by one the youthful gamblers lost all they possessed. Finally the disk had gathered in their combined fortunes and revlaced the dice, You're a cheat,” said one youngster., Robber!™ said another, “*Thief! Skin! Rascall” chorus.

They are so generally bad, indeed, that I have met native born Americans, who had never traveled abroad, who could not bo brought to be- lieve that good roads were possible. The common roads are at once the means and measure of civilization. Such being the fact, it seems a little strange that we who boast that our civilization is of a higher type than that of any other people should have worse rouds than any other country enjoying a stable government, It may be that our bad roads are due to a weaknes of our communal system just at this point, and it may be that our industrial progress has been so rapid that we have not had time to give proper attention to other highways than the railroads and water courses, Whatever has been the cause we have long been paying a very heavy penalty for this neglect, nnd at this time, in many parts of the east at least, this tax upon agriculture is so great that the farmers are getting behind move and more every year and ave generally dis- satisfied, " And, moreover, very fow of them know what is the chief cause of this lack of prosperity. They have never had good roads, nordid th fathers and grandfathers, They decline to look at home for either the cause or the remedy, but seem satisfied to believe that the “‘railroad monopolies” have done all this damage to their industry. Fortunately, however, many of the best and most active men in the country are keenly alive to the importance of im- proving our country roads, and in several states such laws have been passed as will enable any eaterprising county to build good hard Macadam or Telford roads. Such roads properly built can be kept jn order without much expense, and if they are not neglected they get better: with age. The work, however, of making such roads is so ex- pensive in the first instance that fow counties or townships feel able to under- take any large or comprehensive system of road improvement of this character, In several states ag effort is being made to have each state build the roads in the first place and for ' time at least main- tain them. —_— ne Minute.

I have to back her and start her two or three times before she’ll go. Our engines will pick up a train and walk right out on the jump you know. _John A. Covert, the road foreman, is a graduato from the ranks. Ten yeurs ago ho ran **Long legged Numbor Ten, He talked interestingly about the Bull- gine. Hesaid that is was understood that she was of the bhst type of English engine when she was bought, but it has gince been learned that there is a still better model over there. She was ship- ped here in pieces, the boiler being in one picce, of course. She was put to- gether and set up in Altoona, and has now been running between New York and Philadelphia for 506 time. She is a compound engine. She has two fourteen-inch high-pressure cylinders to run the near drivers and a thirty-inch low-pressure cylinder for the forward drivers. The steam goes into the high pressuce cylinders for the rear drivers, and is then oxhuusted into a big low-pressure cylinder which is forward under the stack. Irom that the st exhausts into the stack, She was so stiff and hard it was impossible for the men tostay on her at first. She had slight spiral springs when vshe came to this country, and when she was vunning she would close these springs down solidly and then fly up from them so as to fling the engineer off his feet as he stood on the floor of the cab. When she fiung her weight down on those springs the jolt would be something frightful. That would not do at all, so the spirals were taken out, and new regulation leaf springs, such s our engines have, were put on her. Now she rides very easily She is not so fast as the Pennsylvania 7, class engines. When she is running on their schedule she will lose a fow se onds in every mile. She is not so powe ful as our engines. It is true that she has pulled eleven cars,but many of them were oxpress cars and other lighter cars than the regular passenger coaches. She is cranky at starting. The en- gineers do not like her or anything about her, but two of them—Kerr and art- man—have not allowed prejudice to stand in the way of a fair trial of her, and they have made her do her best. The bullgine does save coal, LEngi- neers get what is called a coal premium on all the fuel they are able to save, They are alloweda six pounds of coul per mile for every car they o What they save out of that is credited to them at the end of each month, One half the value of the coal saving goes to tho engineer and fireman and one half to the company. The constant calcula- tion oceupies the time of a great force of clerks. Engineer Hartman earned $23 extra in this way with the John Bull- gine last month. He got $23, his fireman got #23, the company got $46, and the total saving was $02, & considerable sum when the amount ina year is considered. Ordinarily engineers” earn between #3 and $15 por month by this premium, “But,” said Me. Covert, *vou ought to see the English engine when she is running at her best. She isthe pretti- est sight on the d. Sho lies down like & race horse or a grayhoune, and she leaps ahead so that you get tho full idea of force and speed personified in the most picturesque manner. She's ag pretty as a woman. She don’t look pretty when you fivst see her. No more does many & woman whom you afterward think is beautiful. Stund about thirty feet off, at the side of the road, and sce her come along, and she's the finest thing you ever saw at the head of a train. “She has absolutely no rocking o side motion, and she just forges or darts ah iding nerselfdown to the track and letting out for all sho is worth, On our engines, you know, the power is apt plied at the sides oxclusively, but hery is right in the center, und sho keeps a steady as a mill wheel. She makes very little noise, because where our engines exhaust into the stack at ninety pounds pressure she exhausts at twenty or thirty pounds, quick 55 The wonderful speed made in a tes- trip on the Bound Brook division of the Philadelphia & Reading railroad on Au gust 27 last, by the train drawn by en gine No. 206, has the ubsorbing them in railroad cireles since that time, says tho Philadelphin Record The ease with which tue world’s record was shattered wh made in thirty-nine that ‘n up the been a single mile was and four-fifths sec fo trip door of competition, n attempt at anoth future to further onds on ver-to-he-forgotten has open and there is talk of er time in th near lower the record The engincer who has the proud dis We are the Poor Man's Fr tinetion of being in command of the fast- ost engine in the world far as has been demonstrated is John Hogan,whose name is now tamous in railrowd cireles, He wears his honors modestly, but is of the opinion that his locomoiive can go at a still greaterrate of speed. Mr. Ho- gan is 51 years of ag He came into the employ of the North Pennsylvania railroad company in 1864, and has r mained in continuous service up to the present time. He has been an engincor for twenty-two years, and run a pas- senger teain for seventeen years, Near- ly uil these years Lngincer Hogan has leld the responsible post of runuing the New York express. No little amount of the credit for the wonderful performance is due to the masterly efforts of Fireman Oscar Treschier, who is 25 yeurs of age, and who is considercd one of tho best fire- men in the employ of the Reading rail- rond. Mr. Teschner, who is a hana- some young fellow, has been in the em- ploy of the Philadelphia & Reading for four s as ficeman in the passenger train service, and in his line he has no pee! «The engine which made the wonder- ful run is known as No, 206. She is in Class D, No. 33, and has what is known as the Wooten fire-box, which burns anthracite coul, Her stroke is 18ix22 inches, and her drive wheels ave sixty eight inches in diameter. There are four drivers and a truck, and the total weight of the engine is 98,000 pounds, The weight of the tender and tanlk when loaded with coal and water 300 pounds. The amount of coul used on the famous tvip was one ton of egg size. The wte surfuce is about venty-two squave feet, There are five engines of this description on the Readin nd all were tucned out of tho shops in 1886, 50 * xe The report of the board of trustees of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire- men, which has been in session in Terre Haute, Ind., was made publie a few days ago. The board inspected the books of the grand officers, covering the past ten years. The report brings out some vei interesting facts regarding the growth of this powerful labor organization, whose membership has increased from 1,300 to 23,000 in that time. The head- quarters were moved to Terre Haute ten years ago from Indianapolis, through the influence of Grand Secretary Debs, and to this is largely due the success of the organization. The Fireman’s N zine, of which he is tne editor, has crensed in eicculation from 2,000 tg i 000. During the ten yvears the total dis bursements were $2,704,935.98. Of the amount $446,300.75 was for the dis- astrous Chic Burlington & Quincy strike; 1,875,252 in benelits, the death or total disability payment being $1,500, The receipts and disbursements of the general fund were noar include the magazine and ali headquar- ters expenses, There are 468 lodges in the United States. It is here made public for the first time that the vote of the lodges has re- sulted in a decision nst building a headquarters building, At the list semi-annual convention at San Fran- cisco it was ordered t the lodge should vote upon the proposition to erect a building to cost about $250,000. A two-thirds vote of the lodges was re- quived to authoiize the bourd and the arand oflicers to select a city and con- teact for the building. 1l but a few lodges have boen heard from and the vote is about even, It is thought that at the couvention at Cincinnati next year the building will be ordered, and then will come thie contest over tho site. Omaha has made the biggest bid so far- offering land freo and a lnrge contribu- tion, Terre Haute will, however, have a strong pull on account of its central lo- cation and the associations of ten years past. Playing Marbles. Almost all the “marbles” with which boys amuse themselves in season and out of season, on pavements und in shady spots, are made at Oberstein. Germany. There many large agate quarries and mills in that neighborhood and the refuse is turned to good uaccount in pro- viding the smull stonc balls for experts to-*knuckle down’ with., The stone is broken into small cubes by blows of n light hammer. These small blocks of stone are thrown by the shovelful into the hopper of a small mill, formed of a bedstone having its surface grooved with concentric furrows; above this is the “runner,” which is of hard wood, hav- ing alevel face on its lower surface, The upper block is made to revolve rap- idly, wator being delivered upon the grooves of the bedstone where the mar- bles are being rounded. It takes about fifteen minutes to finish a bushel of good marbles ready for the boys’ knuckle One mill will turn out 160,000 per weok. - Boss Gamb! are Th r.
