ItAILUOAD GOSSIP A car constructed wholly of steel lately passed over the Erie. It is built something In tbtjihapaof a cigar with fattened sides. Tbe interior Is handsomely upholstered and It Is claimed tbe car Is flro proof and unbreakable. It Is also claimed that pass engers riding In this car would not be In jured In case of a wreck, as it can roll down an embankment without being de molished. Some idea of the immense transportation facilities of the United States can be gained by the fact that the Baldwin Locomotive Works In Philadelphia turned out on an average three locomotives pet day-during last year. These engines are worth $18 000 each, and represent tbe output of but one among a score ot prominent chops, a very small per cent, of tbe machines manu factured going to foreign countries. From the let the mileage books of the Central Railroad of New Jersey will be good on all branches and lines opetatedby tha Company, excepting on tbesteimer be tween New York City and Sandy Hook and between Perth Amboy and Point Pleasant. The distance between New York Cltv and Easton has been fixed at 75 miles. Railroad statlstlces show that no one car on a train Is safer than another. Some' times tbe last car Is the only one to drop through a bridge, and again tbe first coach climbs on top of tbe baggage car. Pay your fare, have faith, and take your chance, Of the forty-two men bung last year, none were ever hurt In a railroad accident. From Febrnary 1st, the mileage books of tie Lehigh Valley Railroad Company will be honored to and from all points on tbe New Jersey Division, between Easton and New York.

A very prosperous Institution Is the TFcatherly Silk Mill. Under tho man ago ment of the Lovatt brothers, the work has been pushed steadily ahead, and at the pro sent tlmo it Is one ot the best silk manu facturing plants outside of tbe large cities. The works had such a demand that they wort, obliged to Increase the capacity of the mill to double what it originally was. The building that was Mist erected, was added to, until It reached a working capacity re quiring the employment of 270 hands, and recently It has been futher Increased by the addition of a new machine room 381 feet long and 40 feet wide.- This room is con- cctcd with tbe first building by three wings, each ct which Is 90 by 53 feel. A new engine-room 05 by 22 feetand a boiler- house building 45 by 22 feet have also been added. A new 500 horse-power engine is another of the acquisitions. The now ad dition wilt contain tbe offices, and they are elegantly finished in hard wood panels. The entire establishment is lighted by about 700 clecttle lights, tho electricity being furnished by a dynamo In tbe building. In tbe course of three or four weeks It is expected that the entire, plant, Including tho new portion, will be ready for work. Instead of baying only 270employes, which Is tbe number now employed, 500 hands will than be required to run tho wot k of the concern. Fivo hundred additional bauds employed In the little town of Weather) means something to proipi'tlty of tho place, and is certainly a mark of success that the Lovatt brothers should feel proud ot. An ledustry of that kind in our midst to-day would make hearts glad, and put better clothes on the backs and batter food on Hie tables of many of the people of the town, whose backs and tables are not any too well provided for at present. If the Lovatl'a have any more brothers like themselves, tbey would be doing this town great favor by sending them here to esta blish such another industry as the Wealh- erly mill. Plain Speaker.
