C. 82. ALLEGHENY. PA. I ~ " i COST OF TRAIN LUXURY. Tha Rnaos That Railway Passe»»«r Rates Are So Blck. It may be asked why the railway lo comotive does not pull passengers at a lower rate. Because It gives pas sengers so much room, comfort and high speed that It hns to carry a ton of dead weight for each passenger. A locomotive weighing 100 tons pulls at 45 miles an hour 12 cars weighing GOO tons and containing 700 people weigh ing 50 tons, assuming the passengers • to be men, women and children, but chiefly men, and to average 131 pounds each; 1,400 pounds of dead weight per passenger wheu every seat is taken. But cars cannot average more than seven-tenths full. The railway carries free the pas senger's 150 pound trunk and sends with him toilet rooms, heating stoves and fuel, smoking rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms. These houses on wheels and the locomotive which draws them have to be made very heavy in order to get the great strength made neces sary by high speed. If the railway could dispense with these comforts and luxuries and carry passengers packed closely Inside and on top of low roofed, ramshackle, un heated vehicles like the old stage and at slow speed it could pull passengers at one-tenth to one-twentieth the price of the old stage.—Engineering Maga zine. North Pole For Bald Head*. "Talking of hair restorers," said the captain of a 6teamer who has been a whaler, "none of them Is In it with the air of the arctic regions. A man with thin hair who falls to get a new crop If he goes within the arctic circle Is a hopeless case. I have seen whalers who got bald when they stayed at home for a year or two and got a new crop of hair every time they went to ward the north pole on a whaling expe dition. "How do I account for It? The far ther you go north the land animals get shaggier. It Is a provision ugalnst the cold. When the arctic winter ap proaches, the reindeer, the bears and other animals get a thicker coat of hair or fur. Similarly the hair on the hu man head thickens when you go far north. "It Is a fact Now, I don't want you to think that once the follicles of the hair are dead new hair alwuys comes, even In northern regions. Sometimes, when a man is apparently .as bald as a billiard ball, the follicles are not dead, and there Is hope for him."—Phil adelphia Ledger. A Quaint Old Will. "My hobby Is the collection of •trange wills," said a retired sea cap tain. "I have gathered together copies of over fifty odd testaments, and fine reading some of them are. One over 800 years old, bequ»ath»—what do you think t Why, It bequeaths its maker's soul to God. This Is the way It reads: " 'ln Del nomine, Amen; the yere of our Lord 1541, the XXXth day of May, I, Robert Petigrew, hole of mynd and mem'ry, make my testament and last will, yn forme and manner followyng: First, I bequetb my sowle to Almighty God, and my body to be buryd yn the churchyard of North Cadbery. I be quetb to my sonne Richard a cowe, a calff, the second best grass panne, II platters, II dysshys of pewter, and an akar of wheat an akar of draggc, and an akar of medow. To my daughter Alys, a cowe. To my sonne Thomas, my old oxe. The residew of my goods, not bequethed, I give to Mawde, my Wyffe.' "—Philadelphia Record. Corala of Our Own Coast. It Is a common notion that corals grow only in tropical and subtropical waters and that no coral reefs are to be found along our own familiar coasts. As a matter of fact, coral formations stretch all along the Atlan tic coast of the United States, although the reefs do not rise so high that they project from the water. Some of the most beautiful of the living coral In the New York aquarium was dredged up from the Atlantic ocean almost within sight of the city of New York, and there are many coral patches still closer to the shores. Generally the northern coral Is snow white, although sometimes It has a delicate brown tint. Pink coral is found occasionally, but It ia rare. A Bargain. Fred—Kitty didn't marry that mil lionaire duffer after all, did she? Jack—No; he backed out and she sued him for breach of promise. Fred—What damages? Jaek—Twenty-five thousand, and she got it Fred—Clear case of $25,000 off for cash, wasn't it? I didn't think Kitty was so sharp at drlviug a bargain.— The Friendly Catfish. There of fish that never looks at Mhe i clothes of the man who throws ln;theibalt, a fish that takes whatever, is (thrown to It and when once holdxpfVthe hook never tries to shake a friend, but submits to the in evitable, crosses his legs and says "Now I lay me" and comes out on the bank and Seems to enjoy being taken. It is a fish that is a friend of the poor, and one that will sacrifice itself In the interest of humanity. That is the fish that the state should adopt as its trade mark and cultivate friendly relations with and stand by. We allude to the bullhead. The bullhead never went back on a friend. To catch the bullhead it Is not neces sary to tempt his appetite with a por terhouse steak or to display an ex pensive lot of fishing tackle. A pin book, a piece of liver and a cistern pole are all the capital required to catch a bullhead. He lies upon the bottom of a stream or pond in the mod thinking. There is no fish that does more think ing or has a better head for grasping great questions or chunks of liver than the bullhead. The bullhead hns a fine India rubber skin that is as far ahead of flddlestrlng material for strength and durability as possible. The Iron Pillar of Delhi. The famous iron pillar of Delhi Is dealt with in Cassler's Magazine. The pillar Is a solid shaft of wrought iron, sixteen Inches In diameter and of a length that Is variously reported. The total length Is from forty-eight to sixty feet under ground and above, includ ing a capital of three and one-half feet. The pillar contains about eighty cubic feet of metal and weighs about seventeen tons. The metal Is, of course, charcoal Iron, made directly from ore in small billets; but how it was welded up no one can tell, as no record exists of any early method of dealing with great masses of wrought iron. An inscription roughly cut or punched upon the column states that hajah Dhara subdued a people In the Surdhu, named Vahllkos, and obtained with his own arm an undivided sov ereignty on the earth for a long pe riod. The date of the inscription bos been re furred to the third or fourth century after Christ but on this au thorities are at variance. I Another Name For It.
