Bariy Railroad Filar When the first passenger railroad ever built wns opened In England In 1825 tho train traveled from one end of tho line to the other, a distance of twelve miles, In two hours. And Wood, one of the best known writers on the subject of railroads at that day, wrote as follows: "Nothing can do more barm to the adoption of railways than the promul gation of such nonsense as that we shall see locomotives traveling at the rate of twelve miles an hour." Today, with locomotives traveling; at the rate of seventy-flve miles an hour, one can look at Wood's warning with 0 feeling of amusement. In 1820 a locomotive was introduced In this coun try, and In the following year Peter Cooper experimented with a locomotive on the B. and O. railroad. The flues of the boiler were made from gun bar rels. The boiler was about the size of A flour barrel. Cooper related with considerable satisfaction bow on the trial trip of this engine he passed a gray horse attached to a wagon. New York World. , Big Pokar Stakes. Many stories of big poker games among the western cattlemen In the early days have been told, but this story of the game with probably the greatest stakes is really true. Two well known cattlemen of southwestern Kansas, one of whom is now a promi nent business man In Kausas City, started to move tbeir herds to the pastures ot Wyoming. Each herd con tained moro than a thousand head of cattle. When they came to the cross ing of the Arkansas river near Coo lldge they found a flood on. They were unable to cross for two or three days. To while away the time the two men engaged in a poker game. When the flood finally subsided so that the cattle could proceed one of the cattlemen said to bis son, who was helping to drive, "Just turn my herd over to our neighbor and we will go back home." He had bet and lost not only all the money be bad, but all of the herd of cattle. Kansas City Journal. Moving Troops by Rail. "Let us suppose It became necessary to send the eutlre national guard of New York out of the state, bow long would it take the railroads to handle them?" was asked a railroad official In New York. "Twenty-four hours, easy," was "the instant replr. "This is under war conditions, remember, which means that everything gives way to the movement of troops and their equip ment The railroads of America can handle men and war material of all kinds, including everything from horses and men to cannon and rations, much faster thnn they enn be assem bled and delivered to us. In fact, un der war conditions the railroads are prepared to do their part quicker and better, with more certainty and better speed, than any other part of the ma chinery, commercial or military, In America." Eallroad Man's Magazine. Black Friday. In England the term Black Friday was first applied to Dec. 6, 1745, the day on which news reached London that the pretender, Charles Edward, had reached Derby. Agniu on May 11, I860, when the failure of a large Eng lish discounting institution brought on a most disastrous panic, the day was called Black Friday. On the day of the suspension the Bank of England raised the rato of discount 0 per cent Wild speculation In gold In New York and other cities culminated in a mone tary crash on Sept 10, 1873, that swept thousands of firms and individuals into financial ruin and caused a commercial depression that extended Into the eight ies of the last -century; hence the origin of tho term Black Friday in the United States, i To Make Red Ink.

Tho great baseball player's wife had never seen n game, but he finally per suaded her to view one in which he was to play. lie was doing his best, of course. One strike had been called on blm, and, ns usual 'in basebull anecdotes, two men were out and the bases were full Our hero was gathering his strength for the swat be was going to give the ball. And tho ball came. lie knew it was bis as tho 'ball started, and with a mighty crack he lifted It into space.

Buffalo Ex press. Kilting Ethel, She was fashionably dressed and gave out tho perfume of violets as the brakeman turned to help her up the steps of the train which was due to leave. Turning to her mnld, she said: "Oh, I must kiss Ethel goodby!" "Oh, go on," said the fresh brake man. "I'll kiss Ethel goodby." "No, you won't, either," came from the woman. "That precious dog was never kissed by a stranger in her whole life!" Youkers Statesman. Sensible Course.

Hannah In his jook, "Eastern Asia A History," says that taxicabs, or, rather, automatic registers attached to horse cabs, were invented about 630 A. P., during the Tang dynnstry lu China. In his opln on the Chlneso empire Is "the great t bluff in the world," and it sug gests to him a very ancient Chinese fable, which he relates. A monkey was captured by a tiger. He whined that he was thin nnd his r.esh of poor tnste, but he knew of a line fat donkey for tho tiger. Tho ti ger consented to be led to where the Jonkoy was tied. When tho donkey jaw them coming he was frightened, but recovered his composure and bawl id in his masterful donkey voice: "Monkey, you used to bring me two tigers. Why only one today?" The tiger did a record hustlo back to the Jungle. China, says Professor Hannah, baa rtiown much of that donkey's resource fulness in Its history. Two Women. In her book "Woman and Labor" Olive Sehrelncr gives an amusing illus tration of the fact that It is not the amount of money a person has which makes him or her a parasite on soci ety, but the way it is used. "The wife of an American million aire," says Mrs. Scbrelner, "was visit ed by a woman, the daughter and wid ow of a small professional man. She stated that she was in need of both food and clothing. The millionaire's wife gave her a leg of mutton and two valuable dresses. The woman pro ceeded to whine, though in vigorous health, thnt she had no one to carry them home for her. The American, the descendant of generations of able, Inboring, New England Puritan wom en, tucked the leg of mutton under one arm nnd the bundle of clothes un der the other nnd walked off down the city street toward- the woman's dwelling, followed by the astonished pauper parasite." The Siie of Some Star. M. Nordmnnn of the Tarls observa tory believes that he has devised a successful method of determining the din motors of stars by a comparison of their effective temperatures with their parallaxes. In the cane of some of the brightest stars he has reached interesting results. Thus he finds that Aldebarnn, the bright star in Tnnrus, is veritably a giant sun, the ratio of its diameter to that of our sun being greater than that of the sun to he planet Jupiter. This means that AKIe bnran has a diameter probably not less than 8.000,000 miles, or more thun thirty tlmcjj tho distance from the earth to the moon. On the other hand, Sirtus, or the dog star, to our eyes the brightest of all the stars, Is, accord ing to M. Nordmnnn, but little larger than our sun. Juggernaut Juggernaut or "lord of the world" was supposed to be one of the in carnations of Krishna. The idol is formed of an irregular pyramidal black stone, with two large diamonds to rep resent eyes. The nose and mouth are painted, vermilion. An Immense num ber of pilgrims visit the idol annually, reaching up into the millions. Jugger naut worship used to be a terrible thing, but it is not what it once was. The state nllowance to the temple was suspended by the Indian government in 1851, and the festivals are growing less and less popular year by year. The growing intelligence of the people and the restraining influence of the government ore doing their work, nnd Juggernaut Is steadily losing ground. New York American. Tea Tremens. "I used to be a tea taster In Han kow,' so Id a New York tea dealer, "but I got a bad attack of tea tremens nnd had to give up tho Job. Tea tremens is a recogulzed disease among Chinese tea tasters. These men don't swallow a drop of tea from oue week's end to another. They simply' hold the ten In the mouth, get an Idea of Its aroma nnd then eject it but neverthe less the nroma of the ten causes vio lent nervous attacks, with sleepless ness and even hallucinations that are known all over China as tea tremens. I have never had delirium tremens, but If it's one-hnlf as bad ns the tea sort I pity tho poor victim." When a Soft Drink la Hard. "You are arrested on a very serious charge, my good man," began the court, looking at the man severely. "You are accused of getting into a fight nnd hitting tho complainant over the heud with a bottle. What have you to say for yourself?" "Your honor, I didn't mean to hurt lilm. I never thought thnt it would hurt hlra very much, 'cause the bot tlo contained nothing but a soft drink," returned the prisoner. Milwaukee Free Press. The Timid One.

When the liver Is secretins an excess of bile It Is a certain Indication thnt the al bumen In the dietary Is beyond the body's requirements nnd should be lessened.
