After spending a few minutes at the Tension otlleo, wn walked clown to the corner of .Smithlhdd and Fifth n venue and took a car for Kast Kud - we wanted to call a few minutes lit the home of Uobert Dixon, whose wife, nee Mollie KMiyan, has been v.ry ill of typhoid fcor. The day was quite chilly, and we darted in, passing the conductor, and sat as near the stove as we could. (A stove in a street cat does not cut much of a figure on r cold day . ) After riding some distance, th in ductor tapped nie gently on the shoul der to get my attention and said pleas antly, "Kxcuse me, sir, but is not your name Mr. lVelcV' 1 owned up -said it wax and looked closely at the face that, seemed now familiar: but 1 was obliged to say in the language of a West Virginia friend, "Your face looks 'peculiar,' but I don't 'organ ize' you." lie then told me that l.e was one of my former normal students Kills Sipes of Needmore. (if course, I was delighted to see him, and to 1 arn th.it he hud held the po sition of conductor with that line for seven years, lie lias a day run of eight miles -sixteen miles each round trip and six round trips every day. A little calculation will tell you the distance he travels in a year. He gets two dollars a (lay, and may work M days a year if he chooses and his health does not inter fere. From other sources, I learned that Mr. Sipe is one of the most trust worthy men in the employ of the com pany. Kills has been making good use of his opportunity. A young man of most excellent habits, he has taken care of his earnings, and is now inn position to leave the company. Me says he is tired of that kind of life; and expects to conic back to his fath er's farm, and spend the reinuinder of his days among the "best people in the world." At til M Dennis Avenue T called at Mr. Dixon's. Mrs. Dixon's mothrr, Mrs. Kunyan of Need more, was seen. She said Mrs. Dixon had been a very sick woman: but she thought the cris is had been passed, and that there was now hope for a recovery. A ride of two miles farther brought me to 722 lJebecea Avenue, Willi ins burg, where resides my cousin, X. H. Pock, and his family. They moved to that place from Bedford last August. Mr. Peck is a carpenter and has had steady work at $2.7.) a day ever since ho has been there. Harry their older sou is in the electrical works. Hois employed at night. lie sits at a little eniory wheel and grinds the rough edge oil' of small copper slugs. It is light work, and he makes as much as $15.00 a night, it being piece work. Walter, their younger, has had stcad y employment at good wages. But time is passing- and we hasten back to the Union depot, and board a train at 2 o'clock for Cleveland, Ohio, over the Cleveland ix Pit.sburg divis ion of the Pennsylvania System. The distance is l."0 miles. Leaving Pittsburg, wo follow down the Ohio river a distance of lifty miles when wo leave tho river, and start a cross the State for Lake Krie. Tho ride down the river was full of inter cut. Tho liver was high from the re cent rains and was i'jil ;;f ihutting ice. Sometimes the whole surfac of tie river channel would l" come,! ulli, broken ice; ajr.iie, the U.e '..ouM b: drawn in a hmg lii.e t une side i,f the channel: then, I nl'i sides would no free and the copter of the chiiiiail would carry the ice. Mo.v and thee, wo would pass a tug boat struggling up the river, making its way to Pitts burg, whore there are thousands of tons of coal lying in barges ready to be towed down the river as soon as tho ice is out of the way. About thirty mile.-: from the point we left the river, wo wore shown one of President McKinley's farms. It is said to bo in tho bauds of an up-to-date, farmer, and (inrwfjjio best farms in Ohio. After looking tiuNfarin over as far as one could fi-oin tji? window of a coach moving at tho rate of f:rlv miles an hour, it occurred to us that uncle William had better trade that one oil' and come to tho Cove, and buy one of tho Trout, fiij-ins. Dul wo un derstand ho wants to hold on to his job In Washington until March ISOI. lie ought to bo a bio to buy another farm bv that time ami nav ' down." At twenty- llv day evening, our train stopped ut the Union station at Cleveland -twenty-five minutes past seven by my watch if I had not turned It buck an hour after I loft Pittsburg; for those Ohio people all havo their time pieces just ono hour slower than ours. For tho sake of those readers of the News who are not so familiar as your self with the changes of time, allow a slight digression hero, Points on tho surface of the earth, directly north and south of each oth er, although thousands of tulles apart, always have the same time; points on a lino east and west no mutter how near to each other, never havo the same time.

January Sloth, and reached New York about two hours later. At ten o'clock the next morn in we went aboard the St.Louis, one of America's tinest steamers, for a voyage across the Atlantic. This vessel is supposed to make this trip across in six days; but to avoid any trouble from icebergs our captain chose the southern course and we spent eijjht days instead of six. We had a fairly smooth voyage; the weather, with tin; exception of out! day which was disagree able, was tine, and far as it is possible on tho oceau we had a very pi -asanl, time. I think I would havo had just a little more enjoyment out of the voyage if it had uot been for the fact that I was awfully sea-sick a few days; but I had every attention possi ble f;ir my comfort my mistress is just as kind to me aa I could wish. There was not much chance to fi-et hungry as we had an oppor tunity lor four meals it day breakfast at S o'clock, lunch at 1L tea at -I, and dinner at (J.'SO. This ship is very beautiful, and contains every thing necessary for the convenience aud comfort of passengers. Thorn is a largo gorgeously furnished parlor. In it is a tine pipe organ aud two up right pianos; and there was al ways among the passengers sumo one who had the skill and the will to give us lots of music. Resides music, there were other forms of entertainment, so that time never hung heavily on our hands. At ll.SJU p. m. February 7th wo sailed into the harbor at South ampton, ltyiglaud, but wo cast anchor and did uot land until next morning at 7 o'clock. Then we took- u train for London, in which city wo stayed a few days at the DeKeyser's Royal Hotel.
