will make her perfectly healthy. It will

It will make the ordeal of motherhood ab

RAILROADS IN' SPAIN.
The Mileage Is Small and the
Traveling Hard.
The Entire Syatem la No I.nrgcr Than
One of Oar Weatern Honda—
DlHlenltlea of Paa
aencera.
There is not much celebration of
anything in Spain this year, but if
there was. she might celebrate the
semi-centennial anniversary of the
opening of the first railroad in that
kingdom. In 1543 the Barcelona rail
road, so called, extending 13 miles from
Barcelona to Mataro, was opened to
traffic. Mataro is a small town on
the Mediterranean northeast of Bar
celona, and these 18 miles of road con
stituted at that time Spain's only con
tribution to the railroad mileage of
the world, the neighboring country.
Trance, having at the same period a
railroad mileage of 1.500 and Great
Britain 3,000. Since then there has
been a slowly- intermittent increase of
■what is sometimes grandiosely called
"the railroad system" of Spain, two
obstacles to the development of which
have been the unbusinesslike methods
of the inhabitants and enormous en
gineering difficulties. Spain has been
■wholly denuded of forests at the head
■waters of rivers, and as a consequence
there are frequent overflow?, carrying
with them railroad bridges, trestles
and embankments, to the constant
peril and annoyance of passengers.
There are now in Spain 7,550 miles
of railroad, less than one-third of the
number in Great Britain, France or
Russia, and less than one-fourth of
the number in Italy. The relative in
significance of the Spanish raiiroad
"system" appears best in comparison
•with American railroads, a single line,
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy.
having an aggregate mileage of 7,400,
owned, operated or controlled, or
nearly as much as all the railroads
of Spain combined. Spanish railroads
are proverbially slow, the rate of "ex
press" trains being 23 miles an hour
and of way passenger trains from 12
to 15. They seldom run on schedule
time, and it is the testimony of all
travelers that they never make con
nections. The amount of baggage al
lowed each first-class passenger on a
Spanish railroad is CG pounds, but the
railroads are not responsible for it*
Joss, nor are their officials responsible
for its identification.
The railroad lines of Spain were
Jmtft partly by private capital, partly
from the proceeds of governmental
subsidies. These subsidies have
amounted to over $200,000,000 (1,000,-
000,000 pesetas). Although the rail
roads of Spain are directly under the
control of the government, and al
though about one-third of their con
struction was paid by the government,
they are owned by private companies,
and about three-fifths of the stock of
the Spanish railroads is owned in
France. French investors have grad
ually absorbed the securities, which,
sold at a depreciation, pay a high rate
of interest. French and English en
gineers supervised generally the con
struction of Spanish railroads, but
the "stations," or terminal facilities
of the companies, are the products of
domestic industry, as any observant
but forbearing traveler will admit.
The railroads of the United States
carry in a year about 600,000,000 pas
sengers, and they transport about 800,-
000,000 tons of freight. There are 33
per cent, more tons of freight car
ried than there are individual passen
gers. The Spanish railroads, despite
the inferior facilities which they offer
to traveler?, depend more upon pas
senger than upon freight traffic, car
rying in a year a much larger number
of passengers than they do tons of
freight. In IH'J7 the Spanish railroad*
carried 27,000,000 passengers, but they
carried only 12,000,000 tons of freight.
The difficulties of passenger traffic
on Spanish railroads are enhanced in
some particulars which are rather
umubing than serious. Passenger* are
expected to arrive at the station at
least half an hour before the train
leaves in order that sufficient allow
ance may be made for the dilatory pro
ceedings of the railway officials. Dur
ing part of each day (and in some
cities the larger part of each day)
the railway stations are closed and the
ticket offices do not open until an hour
before the time scheduled for the de
parture of the train, closing a quarter
of an hour before it is due.
The hapless tourist, in compliance
with Spanish railroad custom, must
Jiave his ticket before he is permitted
■to enter the waiting-room, and as
this ticket must be bought 15 min
utes, at. least, before the train starts,
and as the train may be anywhere from
an hour to three hours late, his op
portunities for reasonable complaint
ixre numerous and are not diminished
l>y knowledge of the fact that lie is
paying more for hi* ticket, according
to the distance traveled, than is the
rule on American or English railways.
One peculiarity of railroad travel in
Spain is to be found in the fact that
employes of the railroad company are
•ntltled, as a matter of right, to the j
best seats, even regardless of the tick
et* sold .passengers. In what is some
times called "cheap" railroad t ravel in
Spain many of the passenger* ride on
the roofs of the cars, but whether it
Is to enable them to see the country
to better advantage or to enjoy greater
comfort and better ventilation is not
known. In some Spanish railroad sta
tions, notwithstanding the meagemess
of their accommodations, an admis
sion is charged, similar to a theater.
It being the theory of some of the
Spanish railroad officials that the
eagerness of some per-ons to find
lolace on the wooden benches of rail
way stations is an item of available
revenue not to be dii regarded. - V. V

Killed herself with Spiders
Cora Smith, who was serving a life
sentence in lowa for the mnrder
of her father, killed herself a few
days ago by eating live spiders She
had l>een trying for weeks to find a way
to take her life, and seeing one day the
spiders crawling on the Wflls of the
prison yard it occurred to her that they
won Id serve.
She gathered spiders day t>y day until
she had a large nnmlier tied np in a
liaudcrkerchief. Then she wrote a
letter to Attorney-General Remley
begging for clemency for ber mother,
Betsy Smith, who was in the same pris
on in Anamos i with her serving a life
sentence for the same murder. On
Sunday nitrht she ate the spiders and
Monday morning was fonnd dead in her
cell The handkerchief with the re
maining spiders was fonnd by her side.
Her letter to the Attorney-General re
peated her confession, made more than
three years ago that she, and not her
mother, gave her father the poison that
killed him.
Michael Smith, the father, was a
prosperous railway engineer. Because
he remonstrated with his wife and
daughter about the life they led they
made several attempts to kill him. His
wife was convicted of his murder and
sent to the penitentiary for-life
Shortly afterward the daughter con
fessed that she and not her mother
killed her father, and this sent her to
the penitentiary for life. The mother
obtained a new trial, and was again
convicted a few months ago.

Last week the actual clearances of
wheat and Hour from the country were
5,397,000 bushels, or about half a mill

Since July Ist the total shipments are
only 9.000,000 bushels behind last year,
and at the present rate fast catching

taking all offerings from St. Louis
