Be powerful, in fnct, nre the Brother
hood of IxKometlvd Engineers and that et
Locomotive Firemen, that n general strike
et the two would simply paralyze the
traffic of the nation mid bankrupt thou
sands of people. On the 133,000 miles et
railroad in the United States there are
new about 30,000 engineers and as many
firemen; of these the brotherhoods con
tain nt least 21,000 each, or 43,000 In all.
The high avcrage character et the mem
bers et these great unions may be appre
ciated from the fact that expulsions and
suspensions ntc very rare, and nearly all
ter intoxication, failure te pay Just debts,
or gross neglect of duty. At least four feur
fltths, and probably mere, et the engi
neers began as firemen; nnd in no instauce
et the former having trouble have the
firemen offered te take their places. Chief
Engineer P. M. Arthur, chief efllccr et
the brotherhood, has held the place
twelve years nnd has always ben consid
ered conservative.
The weak point in the engineers' case is
that they nre net fully supported by the
Knights et liber. The latter have a
grievance ever the action of the engineers
in the Missouri Paciilc strike two years
age. There Is also feeling between the
two organizations because of complica

of the Fex A Benranlr of the Hunt.
A Iat.
My chief enjoyment here is n dally visit
te the kennels. M. de Mnrelles has the
finest pack of hounds for fifty miles
round, nnd the pride he takes in them is
unbounded. There Is the kcciicr of the
hounds, who considers himself very
nearly, It net qui te, as geed as his roaster,
and jeu have te ask this great person
age's permission Isfore being allowed te
visit bis charges, which, when he Is in
geed humor, he will show off with as
much pride as n mother her first baby.
These dogs have as regular meal hours n
the chateau guests, and their feed is pre
pared with the greatest of care, nnd only
given them In certain portions. Ne race
herse could have mere attention than
these hounds, nnd their coats nre as
glossy nnd sleek as any finely groomed
colt's.
A few days nfter my arrival I wns told
te prcpnre for a hunt the following morn
ing, and ns this would be my first experi
ence In the hunting field my excitement
was intense. At 0 o'clock en the morn
ing set for the event, I was reused from
my Bleep by n loud noise, nnd a few mo
ments after, Ccllne, my maid, came hur
riedly In with my warm water, saying
that the breakfast gong had Just sounded
and that the horses were already In the
court yard. It did net take me very long
te den my habit, nnd I was down in the
dining hall almost ns early ns the ethers.
The gentlemen wero their pink coats,
with bright horns Biting ever the shoul
ders, their short riding breeches were et
tan colored corduroy, and with high beets
nnd spurs they looked ready for any
thing. The ladies were the usual riding
habit, but made very short, hardly cover
ing the tip et a patent leather beet; we
all wero (spurs, as well as our escorts, nnd
soft felt bats te match our habits.
A HIT Or DltnAKFAST.
This morning's dejeuner was a very dif
ferent ene from the general first break
fast, ns we could net tell nt what hour we
would 1k able te lunch. There were cold
meats nnd eggs In every style, besides a
cutlet for nny one who desired it. The
gentlemen, I noticed, drank wlne this
morning, Instead et their cafe au lalt.
The qicct was te be nt the four cress

with exhilarating, keenness; the delight

us nil ready te enjoy ourselves te the top
et our bent
Every one knows what a meet is; hew, .
as you draw nearer, you catch sight of the
many bright coats moving slowly te nnd
fro, and see n motley crowd of carriages
and horsemen in n confused group, while,
a little apni t, the hounds can be discerned,
guarded by the whips; hew peeple corae
from miles around te attend; and hew de
lightful the few moments' chat Is before
the start. The dogs, even, seemed te
knew that geed snort lay bcfeie them,
nnd it was nil the piqucur could de te held
them in leash; and when, ntlaft, the sig
nal was given vthlch set them free, the
howl of Jey they sent up was nlmet pltl
' f ul. The fox breke the i Iglit way, nud off
we galloped, seen becoming scattered, as
each took the cnus read he believed te be
the best; ever fallen trees, across ditches,
nnd through brush, new and then leaping
n stream that wound tlueugh the forest;
then having u geed strip of level ground
where we could put our horses en their
mettle; and then n halt te listen te the
rallying horns, end off again in het pur
suit DOWSED THE FOX.
We had n run of very nearly two hours
before we downed the fox, ns the dogs lest
the scent nt ene tlme nnd led us n chase
ever many useless miles. My cousin and
I were In nt the death, and drew strnws
for the brush, I w as fertunate enough le
win It, nnd n few days later It was pre
sented te me handsomely mounted in
silver, as a souvenir of my first hunt In
fair France. The horns sounded the peer
fox's cud, and very shortly the stragglers
had gathered round te t.de the dogs take
their reward.
We we re invited te breakfast It was
lunch, really with Baren de ljisteurs,
whose place, lay nearest us, nnd a ride of
four miles brought us te Chateau Mont Ment Mont
Jel, the baron's residence. It was n dear
llttle place, net pretentious in any ro re
spect, surrounded by beautiful grounds,
nnd built far mere for comfort than for
show. The stublcs were even liner Hum
the se called chateau it did net deserve
such ft grand name and for a whlle be
fore the dejeuner, we admired the many
line horses which were our host's weak
nesses. In ft brlgtt nnd airy dining room we
found covers laid for nbeut forty, nnd St
did net take much urging te mnke us sit
down te the Inviting repast There were
net places at table for nil, se a number
steed nbeuf the room, which ndded te the
merriment ana aid away with all cere
mony. Of course, we were served with
everything that any gourmet could desire,
and for the first tlme during my visit In

Deetn't Cmh HI Death.
Jerry Baldwin, et Birmingham, Ala..
has lived a year wllh a broken neck; and
although he docs net enjoy himself
"worth n cent," he has had the pleasure
of confounding all the doctors, adding
sotne new points te science nnd making
ever 9100,000 In the process. What odds
te the wonder Is that many ether bones
were broken, as well as thcccrvic.il verte
brae, and when he wns picked up, the doc
tors said he was dying and left him te
nature for several hours. As he was a
very strong nnd healthy man, he pulled
through, nnd new ranks with Alexis St.
Martin, the man wltlt n side deer te his
stomach.
Jerry E. Baldwin was liern lu New
Yerk city, In IBM, nnd In 1887 was yard-
master at iir
nilnghnni, Ala.,
fur the Louisville
nnd Nashville
railroad. Before
daylight et March
10 he was stand
ing in n caboeso
en a side track,
when a runaway
engine came down
the track nt ter-i
rifle speed, and
struck the train
te which the ca ca ca
beoso was at
tached; he fell te

engine and six Jtrmv E- AUww.
cars ran ever him, breaking his right leg
in two places, his left leg nnd 11 ve ribs,
lesldes snapping the sixth cervical verte
bra' (et the neck) nnd splintering the Joint
between the sixth nnd seventh vertebra.
All his clothes were tern off nud n very
ugly hele was made lu his side. He was
taken home nud laid en n bed te die, ns
the doctors said he must In n few min
utes. But when nt the end of six hours
he was found le be breathing stronger,
Drs. G tickle, Cepclnutl and Barclay de
termined upon n series of experiments te
save his lfe, in which they were finally
successful. After resetting ns many et
thp bones as possible, they encased him
wholly In a plaster of pnrls frame, nnd
thus llrmly straightened he lay en ft rub
ber mattress filled with water for four
months. After that he lay two months In
bed. Fer fourteen days he was totally
blind, nnd for bIx months wns only occa
sionally conscious; then his recovery be
gan te be noticeable from day te day.
Dr. A. J. Baxter, of Chicago, designed
for him n corset, reaching from the hips
te the back et the neck, and holding his
body firmly in position; at the top et it n
flcxlble bar et steel is attached, which
rises above his head, and te ih ita wired
u "Jury mask," which lielli his head up.
The weight et the head thus rests upon
the hips. The experiment of removing
the mhsk has been tried, but the head nt
ence sinks upon (he spinal column, the
neck being useless, and he relapses Inte n
comnteso condition. Ner can he lie down,
nnd the only sleep he gets is In short naps
In n rhntr 1IU i'ht arm Is useless, but
(La lit ia strong enough te handle a cane
and de ether bcrvlccs, and he can walk
with little assistance. Ills wlfe accom
panies him everywhere, nnd by cheerful
nnd pleasant ways lightens greatly the
burden of his life. Te say that his case
astonishes all the doctors, is putting it
mildly, nnd he has received the pro
ceeds et many lectures in medical circles,
and obtained 173,000 damages from the
railroad company.

Brielly, the scheme Is this. The scouts
or signal elllcers carry In their knapsacks
six small iucandesceut lights of the dif
ferent primary colors. These nre con
nected by a very ftne wire with ft bmall
battery In the knapsack. Attached te the
bmnll glebes that inclese thu lights Is a
very small oval electric meter, operated
by nn independent battery. When ene
scout wishes te CQjnmunlcate with an
other he sends ene glebo high Inte the air
nud then turns en the clectrle fluid that
Illuminates It. By the use of the differ
ent colored glebes and by combinations n
conversation of any length can be carried
en at night nt long distances. The inven
tion will be patented in Europe, nnd an
effort will be made te iutroduce it Inte
the dlfference European nrmles, us well as

THE FUEL OF THE FUTURE.
Ceat Grond In aCyeteae Palterlaer-Hfg
Farnaro Men Pronennee It a BdJfM.
The steel and Iren men of the country,
nnd nil the rolling mill nnd furnace men
also, are interested In the newest rival te
natural gas as a saver of fuel. It was a
modest llttle exhibition that "Was given in
Chester, Pa., the ether day, but it proved
pretty conclusively that where natnral
gas is net, pulverized coal Is sure te be
ere long. J. O. McCauley. of California,
for that is the discoverer's name, claims
te have found n process by which 60 per
cent of the coal hew used in furnaces
and rolling mills will be saved, and steel
and Iren greatly Improved in the puddling
process.
McCauley is one of the latest additions
te the array of genius collected by Erastns
Wiman, the Statcn Island millionaire.
The Callfernlan hunted around a geed
whlle In search of a man et means who
would appreciate his invention. He could
have had all the capital he wanted several
years age, but he wasn't able te get coal
pulverized line enough te spray into the
furnace, nnd McCauley's process consists
In spraying coal that is pulverized into an
Impalpable powder into a cumbustlen
chnmber attached te the furnace. The
combustion that takes place is perfect,
and it is instantaneous, nnd all the gases
are absorbed, se that nene et the sulphur
gets Inte the Iren and lessens Its value, as
Is new the case. That's all there is te the
new process, but it docs the work, pre
vided the coal Is powdered se line that
you can blew It around as you can the
smallest particles et dust
It was at this stage of the proceedings
that McCauley met Wiman. Tlie man
from tle Pacific coast explained his pro
cess te thn Statcn Islander. The latter
said he would test It, because he had a
mnchlne he get from two Wisconsin
farmers that would grind the coal out of
sight If necessary. Twe young Wisconsin
farmers were plowing when they saw n
cyclene coine along safely out of their
way, and tear ti town tip. Tbey noticed
hew the two currents of air, moving in
opposite directions, knocked houses, barns
nud paving stones into smlthcrecns. The
thought struck ene of them that It that
prlnciple could be applied In machinery,
It would make the biggest grind in the
world. Se the young men, whose name
was Raymond, nnd who were brothers,
went te Chicago and Invented a machtne
that they called the cyclene pulverizer.
Wiman met the Raymonds and they were
his, nnd se was their machine. The Statcn
Islander has n fortune In the pulverizer,
which has yet te meet a material it can
not reduce te powder, I am told, and the
Raymonds were paid a fortuneby Wiman
for their discovery.
Se McCauley nnd Wiman formed a
combination. Wlmnn's machlne pul
verized the coal and McCauley tested his
process at the big Chester works. It was
a success beyond doubt, nnd had It been
put Inte operation before natural gas was
discovered, it would have had a clear
monopoly of the Held. It isn't a free putt
te say that pulverized coal sprayed into a
furnacq unquestionably saves the' manu
facturer hundreds et dollars a day. The
big furnace men at Chester and ent in
Ohie say se. and se de all' the big guns in
the manufacturing realm who were'
present nt the Chester exhibition. Out
side of the natural gas localities pulver
ized coal is going te be the fuel of the
future McCauley and Wiman are even
bold enough te say that they will confront,
natural gas right in Pittsburg with
sprayed coal. The conflict ought te be an
Interesting one. Ccrtalu it is that te the
industrial world the new process of Mc
Cauley is the biggest Item of news it has
received for years. Cor. Bosten Glebe.
Kte ricld'a "Ce-operative" Flan.
ICate Field Is known te lie a wemau of
versatile talent, but is hardly suspected,
by these net intimately acquainted with
her, te hate the qualities that go te make
a geed housekeeper. She showed great
tact for that feminine branch of art wheu
she had n house of her own in Devenshire
street, Londen, it few years age. She had
been living for some time in hotels, board beard
ing houses and lodgings, was tired et nil
nnd determined te set up for herself.
Having no desire te 11 ve tCsue,,she made
a plan by which she would have company
and nil the comforts of a home, and still
have the bills shared by ethers. She
called the plan "co-operation," the S3rae
name she gnve te another nnd mero ex ex
tcuslve undertaking en this side of the
water.
It worked well as far as thoce-opcr-ntives
were concerned they were all per
fectly satisfied. She furnished reams nt
low prices nnd the kind of feed that Is
longed for it you llve at n restaurant nnd
dreamed about if you have te llve at
home. After dinner every ene found the
drawing room plcasautcr than any ether
room in that or any ethor house, and
there the friends congregated, for, of
course, they were all friends et the host
ess. They chatted nnd played cards until
the "night cap" hour came round, nnd
r.ftcr a mild libation retired te bed "K.
F.," as she was familiarly called, made it
success of what she undertook except as
far ns she was concerned. "Ce-operation"
turned out te be only it name, for it was
she who did all the work, battled with
drunken cooks, fought the iroublesemo
trades-people, and received only in return
unshared if Wclcome praise. It is net te
be wondered at It nt the end of three
months the project wns given up. New

A lire Wenhlper' Child.
Ou the birth of a Parsce child, ainaglan
and n lira priest, who Is always an as
trologer, are called in te predict the fu
ture life et the babe. The magian,
dressed in it strange rebe of many colors,
n pointed cap with jingling bells, and
armed with u long broom made et be
res ma twigs (which Is thought te have
the iewcr of putting evll spirits te flight),
enters the chamber of the Parsee mother
and babe nud, setting the end of his broom
ou lire, dances around, exercising the evil
spirits; finally he flourishes his firebrand
ever tlie mother and child nnd In all the
coiners et the room. This done, the tire
priest draws a number of squares en a
blackboard; In ene corner of each square
he draws a curious flgure of bird, beast,
fish or Insect, each of which stands for
bome incutal, physical or spiritual char
acteristic, together with its appropriate
star or planet. The magian then proceeds
by menus of spells and incantations te ex ex ex
orclse nny evil spirit thnt may be lurking
unseen In the blackboard. Next the fire
priest begins te count and recount the
stars under whose iulliieuce the child Is
8upiescd te be born, nnd then with cleecd
eyes nnd solemn veice he predicts the fu
ture llfe of the babe. Next he prepares
a horoscope or birth paper aud hands It te
the father. Then, placing the babe en his
knees, he waves ever it the sacred flame,
sprinkles it with holy water, flits Its cars
nud nostrils with bea salt te keep out the
evil spirits, nnd finally returns the
screaming infant te its mother's arms.

Seme persons seem te find much com
fort lu the statement that Swiss women
dispute the most lucrntlve trades with
men; but really before bowing down nnd
worshiping the country of economy, it
will de no harm te remember that the
women also dlspute the work of agricult
ure with the men and even with the ani
mals, There Is no gallantry or chivalry
about n Swiss at home. He is said te be
honest in his natlve wilds when net keep
ing it hotel, and it should be remembered
thnt he has n tremendous stock of hon
esty te draw upon In thnt left behind as
useless by his countrymen serving lu va
rious European armies, but for sentiment
toward women he has no use whatever.
