RAILROAD NOTES.
'Southern railway offlc-Ials state that
the rates In operali:on to Atlanta are
the lowest special figures evex made
for euah an occasion.
The Interstate commerce commission
has awarded the sum of $84,948 to ship
pers of oil in ithe PennFjMvanla oil
district. The roads anterested are the
W. N. Y. and P.. Lehig-h Valley, Erie,
Fltehburg, Boston and Maine and Del
aware and Hudson.
Colonel Ingereoll said In a recent ad
dress: "In 1860 all ithe railroads In the
United States were worth $400,000,000;
now they are worth a little less than
$10,000,000,000. I want you to under
stand what itheise figures mean. In
thirty years we spent on an average of
$1,000,000 a day building railroads. I
want you to think what that means.
All that money 'had to be dug out of the
ground. It ihad to be made by raising
something or manufacturing some
thing. We did not get It by writing
assays on finance or discussing the sll
verquesUon. It ihad ito be made with
t'he u. the plow, the Tcaper, the mower
In every form of Industry, all to pro
duce these splendid results. We have
got railroads enough now -to make sev
en tracks around the great globe and
enoug'h left for side tracks."
SOME GOOD SHORT STORIES.
An Anecdote About MaVons.
Walter Wellman, In the Chicago Times
Herald: Stories about General Mahono
are still told in the hotels and cafes of
Washington. One of the most interesting
and characteristic of these relates to the
famous Virginian's love for good things
to eat, and his peculiar notions concern
ing the manner In which food should be
cooked. At his homestead, near Peters
burg, General Mahons maintained a table
which was celebrated for and near for Its
fowl, game, vegetables, bacon and ham,
all of which were raised on the general's
farm, and under his personal supervision.
In the old duys the hospitality of that
house was something maKnlileent, and at
times even picturesque. All the cooking
In the Muhone house was done before nn
open fire. The bread was baked In the
hot ashes on the hearth, and the fowl,
game and roasts were put on the spit,
which was turned by one old colored mam
my, while another stood by and Industri
ously basted the savory meat. For many
years such a thing as a cook stove was
wholly unknown In the Mahone mansion.
Finally, Mrs. Mahone, declaring good na
turedly that she was not going to live In
this heathenish fashion any longer, sal
lied forth one day, bought a cook stove
and had it set up In tho kitchen. The din
ner was prepared upon it, and when Gen
eral Mahone came homo that evening and
sat down to the table every eye was upon
him. He spread his napkin, took a few
mouthfuls, paused, looked Inquiringly at
Mrs. Mahone, and then put down his knife
and fork and leaned back In his chair.
"There Is something wrong about this
dinner," he exclaimed. "It doesn't taste
right." Seeing that she was caught. Mrs.
Mahone concluded to make a clean breast
of it. "Yes, William," she said, "It was
cooked on my new range, and I think it is
all right." "AH right," retorted the gen
eral, testily, "It's all wrong. That stuff
Isn't fit to eat. Do you think I would eat
a dinner cooked on one of those blamed
alr-tlght things?" There was nothing to
do but to put the old mammy at work
preparing another dinner for General Ma
hone In the old-fashioned way. and for
some weeks thereafter there were really
two kitchens In tho Mahone household,
the general halng all his meals prepared
by the open lire, and the remainder of the
family depending upon the cook stove.
One morning Mrs. Mahone came down to
breakfast, and there was a look of tri
umph In the old general's eye. He took
her to a window and pointed to the back
yard, where lay the wreck and remnants
of her nice new cook stove. "I couldn't
stand It, Mary," he explained. "I Just had
to break it ud and pitch It out. I never
felt light while the beastly thing was in
the house."
It Was His Wife.
Washington Star: It was on the day
trip of one of the Norfolk boats, and the
strunger on deck moed about among the
passengers with a very evident desire to
know who his fellow-voyagers were, yet
with quite as evident a purpose not to
commit himself by giving away Inconti
nently to his curiosity, fter some time he
found a man sitting off to one side, and
with him he entered Into conversation.
They talked Washington and scenery and
delights of rival travel, and one thing and
another for awhile, and then the cautious
man got around to the subject which most
interested him.
"Thero are some very nice looking peo
pie abroad," he said, glancing around the
dock, "and some not so nice looking."
"Yes," responded the other party, also
glancing around.
"I'd like to know something about some
of them," the cautious man proceeded;
"but, being a stranger, I don't like to ask
too many questions. A man can't be too
cautious, I think, when he Is traveling,
In making comments on his fellow travel
ers." "I've heard about some very embarrass
ing cases," said the other party.
"So have I: and for that reason I 2,im
that much more particular. Still I'd like
to know who some of these people are."
"Who, .for instance? I know a few of
them and I guess I'm safe enough to
trust."
"Well," said the cautious man, assured
by this, "there's a lady over there by the
door."
"Which one? That one that Is talking
fourteen ways for Sunday?"
"She seems to bo talking more than the
law allows," ventured the cautious man.
"The one that's got a dress on llko a
three-sheet circus poster, trimmed with
rainbows and Easter eggs?"
"Yes," laughed the cautious man.
"Complexion like a tanbark walk?"
"Rather."
"A bonnet that would fade a carpet?"
"Unless It was a warranted carpet, yes."
"Got a Jaw on her that would cut a nail
In two?"
"Yes.1
"Acts like she owned the steamboat?"
"Somewhat dictatorial, I should say."
"Got a voice you could swarm bees on?"
"Sounds that way at this distance," and
the cautious man laughed with unction,
or he loved to know about people.
The other party got up and took a more
critical look at the lady In question.
"Do you know who she Is?" asked the
cautious man.
"Um-er," hesitated the other party,
"I seem to think I ought to, she s my
wie. Come over and let me Introduce you.
What did you say your name was?" Hut
the cautious man hadn't said and didn't
say, and he removed himself with such
precipitancy that the other party laughed
as though he enjoyed It.
. Two About Jules Janln.
Youth's Companion: It Is said that
Jules Janln, the celebrated French writer
and critic, was noted for the illegibility of
his handwriting. It was so bad ss to be
a perfect nightmare to the printers, and
only two compositors out of the whole
staff of the "Journal des Debate" were
able to read It.
When he -contributed to any other peri
odical he was always forced to dictate his
work to Mms. Janln, who wrote an ex
cellent hand. .
One day he wrote a letter to a friend,
who, after much pondering and squint
ing, managed to decipher two or three
words, which made him think that his
correspondent must be Jarin. He Imme
diately started for the writers home at
Passy.
"Ah, here you arc I" exclaimed Janln,
Joyfully, as he welcomed him. "You have
read my letter?"
"Not at all," replied his friend, with a
smile. "I have received It, and I've
brought It for you to read to me."
"Well," said Janln, doubtfully, "I'll
try."
Janln was not malicious, but occasion
ally he would say a severe thing, as If It
were wrung from him, without his being
able to hold it back; One day a rich but
Ill-natured man, who made sad havoe of
the French language, called upon Janln
and began a tirade upon soma trivial mat
te In execrable French.
After . listening politely for some time
Janln at last replied to his visitor In
Latin. -
-"What do you mean, M. Janln?"' de
manded, the man, angrily, "I don't-understand
you; 1 can't speak Latin."
,. "Try, air. tryf' cried the great crcltle.
Atheletes
Appreciate -
the benefits to be derived from
Bovinihe. A well-known cham
pion bicyclist heartily commends
it. Fred Titus, of the Spaulding
Racing Team says, " I have been
taking Bovininc while training,
am surprised at the strength and
renewed vigor I derived from its
use. It is grand to take after
hard riding, as it very soon re
stores the life you lose at such
times."

"You could not speak It worse than you
do Frenc'i."
Tho Cook F.njoyod It.
Washington Star: Moonlight bathed
the 'verdant sward In a flood of silvery
light; a sweet wind did gently kiss the
trees, and they did make no noise.
That is where the trees differed from
Algernon. He was malting a noise.
"While I beneath thy lattice keep do
touch my li-i-l-ght guitar," ho sang, and
while so engaged he touched the light
guitar, as he Intimated in his roundelay,
"She hears me not," he continued In
plaintive strains, ai)J such seemed to be
the case, forsooth, for no sign of appro
bation issued from the vine-clad mansion,
"Her spirit sleeps," he was led to con
clude in a fortissimo tone of voice.
That number on the programme was
ended, and still no ladylove appeared at
the lattice keep to wave her snowy hands.
"Juniata" failed, "Good-by, Sweetheart,
Good-by," possesed no charms to draw
her forth, and, after divers and sundry
other tuneful lays had been rendered Al
gernon finished with the "Mocking Bird"
and sadly turned to wend his homeward
way.
Hut no; a window Is rulsed, and he turns
with rapture In his heart and a smile up
on his Hps.
A head appears nt a first story window,
and from the inner darkness there flouts
upon the summer nl:r
"Oh, mlpter, won't you play 'Dat Mock
In' Bu'd ag'ln. De family's all gone away
to-night but one, but I sutenly does love
date music. Play 'Dat Mockln' Ilu'd
ag'ln, mister."
One on Hermann.
Herrmann tho great has been offered
a life poEltlon to count otej, according to
a New York story teller. It was brought
aliout by a trick Herrmann played on ex
Mayor Ollroy. He handed him a pack of
cards and told him to take as many a he
wanted. His honor took a few, and Herr
mann, without touching them, said:
"You hae taken eleen." Mr. Ollroy count
ed them and found the statement correct.
Herrmann said: "You keep those eleven
cards, close your hands over them and
don't allow any one to touch them."
Then he turned to District Attorney Fel
lows and said: "John, how many do you
want?" Mr. Fellows took two; then In
turn Senator Murphy took one .and Com
missioner Martin took one. The Wlxard
then gathered together the five whloh the
three gentlemen had taken, blew on them
nnd thy vanished. He said: "Now, Mr.
Ollroy. count how many cards you have."
Mr. Ollroy counted them and found his
original eleven Increased to sixteen, al
though no one had touched him or the
cards.
An Ochiltree Peonctlon.
Xew York Tribune: "Tom" Ochiltree Is
fond of telling stories about his ocean
trips, but one of his best Is of compara
tlely recent origin. He says: "I was
coming across, and a very good sort of
Britisher used to sit with me In the
smoking room. I tried all my best Jokes
on him, and he never cracked a smile. At
last I got angry, and said: 'I don't think
an Rngllsman could see a Joke If you fired
It at him out of a gun.' And then thnt
blessed Englishman stood up on his hind
legs and said: 'How can you Are a Joke
out of a gun?' "
TOOK THE JOKE SERIOUSLY.
An Incident of Clover Club Origin In
Which Rccd Figure J.
Senator Quay's outspoken declaration
that he believes that Thomas ii. Reed
will be the Republican candidate for
president In 1806 brings before one's
eyes, writes Megargee In the Philadel
phia Times, a strong personality in
American politics. Round - bodied,
moon-faced, bald-headed, tall beyond
the six-foot limit; that Is the picture of
the new man from Maine. An imperi
ous character, and, therefore, with a
host of enemies In the ranks of his own
party. Such men as McKlnley and
liutterworth, of Ohio; liurrows, of
Michigan, and the rugged Cannon, of
Illinois, are not over fond of the man
who defeated them for the speakership
of the house of national representa
tives. Reed Is a high protectionist to
the point of rabldness. Larry Jerome
took advantage of his knowledge of
this fact to perpetrate one of his prac
tical Jokes at the annual dinner of the
Clover club seven years ago.
Jerome, although himself a Republi
can and a protectionist, and although
politics is never supposed to be dis
cussed at the club board, when Intro
duced, made a violent free trade speech
In the most serious manner. Reed,
who was seated at the right of the
chairman, could not contain himself.
Springing to his feet he vehemently de
nounced the utterances of the aged
Joker, whom he believed was talking In
full earnestness. N The company
laughed, and when the situation was
quietly explained to the eloquent con
gressman he only gesticulated more
wildly and shouted: "Not even under
the garb of the motley will I hear the
sacred doctrine of protection attacked."
Then a shout went up. Everyone ex
cept Reed knew that the entire affair
was a Joke, but It was fully one hour
-before tho Maine statesman resumed
ma customary good humor.

average rbtween $7 and $3 for each new
girl. Then -the amount of -material
wasted In my wife's cooking school ex
periments while we're without a cook,
together with the waste of ths incompe
tents we have to tiry, will average $30.
The doctor's bills oonsequent upon the
consumption of .those experiments toy
self and family will average $50 more.
"And the strained relations existing
between myself and wife, together with
all Ithe other discomforts at such times,
I wouldn't have for $."00. 'Now, adding
up, I find It octs me for each change we
make $S07 or $608; and as we go througOl
this experience at least te.n tlmps a year
I find a total cost of $6,070 or J6.0S0 per
year. On- the other hand, I will con
tract to furnish all the food a cook W'lll
give her friends In any year for $1,000.
Oonseque-rJtly I'm Just between $3,070
and $5,080 out eveiry year. And that
Is considerable for a man who earns
$3,000."
