RAILROAD NOTES.
It was rumored huro last evening that a
cumber of the Pennsylvania and Hcauing
railroaders were ulschamed at phliuUet
phla yesterday presumably because they
are members of the Brotherhood of Train
men. Engineers Kox and Cornelius Kehoe,
the laiter being an extra engineer at Port
Richmond, are suid to be among the num
ber discharged. The Brotherhood has
been increasing in membership at a rapid
rate at Port Richmond and Third and
Berks strets, Philadelphia, lately, and the
discharges aro no doubt as a warning to
the men that the company is not only op
posed to the organisation, but will start
on a crusade to destroy It. The men were
not told why they were Uischarijed. Potts
vllle Chornlcle.

Frederick Olcott, chairman of the re-or-gunisation
committee of the Philadelphia
and Heading Railroad, said: "The Read
ing reorganisation plan is nearly ready, to
be Issued. There have been deposited with
our committee JS,000,ouo out of the $44,
000,000 of general mortgage bonds. These
bonds do not Include those controlled by
J. P. Morgan Ac Company. I think I can
say there Is no tloubt that the foreign In
terests will promptly Join In the plan. It
cannot yet be definitely stated how the
Income bonds will be treated, nor what
the assessment on the stock will be. The
trip to Europe of Frederick V. Whitridge,
counsel to the reorganisation committee.
Is rot on leading matters but for his
health."

A BURDEN OK A BLESSING?
The mlllllonalro New York merchant,
Charles Broadway Rouse, Is of the opin
ion that If some means were devised by
which the rich man could be assured of
the proper disposition of his gifts the
amount expended In charity would be
doubled by public-spirited citizens of New
York. He says it Is a mistaken Idea that
the man of wealth Is exempt fijm the
anxieties, cares, frlals and tribulations to
which one of the persons of limited means
are subjected; that life to him Is an un
ceasing round of pleasure; that no obli
gations rest upon him except by his own
volition, and that his sole mission In life
Is to distribute his possessions among those
who allege a necessity for them. If this
estimate of the rich man were correct,
how enviable would be his condition; what
avenues of uninterrupted enjoyment
would be opened to him, and how free he
would be to dispose of time and money
as his tastes and Inclinations prompted.
In point of fact, however, the rich man In
some respects, Is more to be commiser
ated than envied. He Is the prey of that
horde of harpies who toll not, yet who
claim 4hat the world owes them a living.
These begars are the constant, untiring
and unscrupulous destroyers of the rich
man's peace and comfort. They exhaust
human ingenuity In devising schemes to
deplete his purse. They make specious
and moving appeals to the softer elements
of his nature. They draw such piteous
pictures of suffering and want as to In
duce mistaken and undeserved charity.
They are pertinacious In their demands
and importune him at all hours of the day
and night. They are devoid of all sense
of delicacy and decency, and do not hesi
tate to violate the snnctltly of his home
circle. In the multiplicity of appeals
made to him the rich man is liable to er
rors of judgment In responding. In his
desire to assist the deserving he . some
times unwittingly gives to the unworthy,
and these charitable mistakes always urgo
the latter to more active executions In
their .pursuit of 'prey. The rich man has a
delicate and difficult role In his life, and,
suffering from the perplexities that al
ways suround him, Is It to be wondered
at that he Is In doubt at times whether
his wealth Is a burden or a blessing?
SOI1ER STATESMEN WANTED.
From the Florida Citizen.
The world is demanding sober men In
all lines of life. Some of the secret orders
will not admit drinking men or bartend
ers Into their ranks. Insurance compa
nies will not take risks on men who drink
to excess.. Express companies and other
corporations employing men in responsi
ble positions carefully exclude from thalr
lists those who habitually drink. The
same precautions are exercised in all
branches of private business, and no man
who has a reputation as a drinker can
easily secure employment of any kind.
Hut In some Instances the voters of the
country give evidence that they do not
regard sobriety as an essential In public
life. They elect to Important offices men
who would not be admitted to any of the
great secret orders and who would not be
given a responsible position In any re
spectable mercantile house. If cool, clear
heads are essential to, effective service In
all branches of commerce, manufacture
and transportation, they are quite as
much so to the comprehension of the Intri
cate science of .government, and the peo-
S le as a political body should demand so
rlety on the part of their official servants.
Until they shall do this they need not ex
pect' to receive efflclont service In their
government affairs.
