Prosperity May Load the Reading to Many Now Improvements. The Shamokin Herald says thai survey hvobeon made to find if It would b' cheaper to double track the Shamokin, Suiibury & Lewisburg lUllro&d, or the OiWwisea branch of the ltoadine. Tb I part of tho Catiwltsa road to take into consideration is betworn Kst Mahanoy I unction and Wut Milton, a distance o sixty-fivo miles. Tho work woU'd require ihe enlarirlbK of two larga tunnels and con siderable trestle work cf tho most Intricate kind. Tho Shamokin, Sunbury & Lew- iiburK is thirtv-throe miles long, i s tarminus being West Milton. Fifteen and a hall mile of this road have been double trackol (rum Shamokin to Snydertown and from Wo t Milton to Lnwl'burg. Hj buildiiiir the S. uthern Central from Ciement to Hnrrisburg and using the OatnwUra branch from Nowbirry Junction to West Milton, the Shamokin, Sunbuiy & Lettieburg would bo used to Clomout, opposite Sunbury and the Susqu. hanna river. Al this point tho Southern Central would bo tapped. Then a direct run through a bvely country would be made to Harrisbtirg at which place connections would be made with tho Lebanon Valley road through to Kadiog, whore tho main line of tho Reading road once more would ba joinol. Tho new route would shorten the time on soft coal or any kind of through freight from seven to ton hours between Newberry and l'liiladeli hia, a distance ol 2u4 miles. Tho proposed new route is 2lii miles, but heavy grade would not bo en countered, as woll as sharp curves, as at present between Sunbury and Port Clinton In lact, tho ntw road will have light and easy grr.des throughout, and when tho lit e is in operation there will ho fait runs. By using.tho Southern Central all i-oft coal and freight now passing through bero willcoase. This will bo a benefit to thousands of in habitants living between Shamokin and Pottsville. It will give the minors more work, as tho breakers will be in more con Blunt operation. The freight and to t coal shippings hive provtd important factors in taking up much of the road's time, Msha noy and Gordon planes olten being over taxed, and at these periods orders would be issued to cease work at the mines. All this will of coursd be avoided oi ce the new road is built and anthracite coal will have the right of way from Shamokin clean dewn to Fniladelphia. This important news will be received with toy by the army of miners in Ibis region, ubd all trust lbt the work of building will now commence, since the surveys have already been com pleted. Tbe coal trado of tho Heading Itailroad company prumisos to be more brisk this year than at any previous time in the his tory ot tho company. Thoy own one hall tbe coal in the mines of tho anthracite region and with unsurpassed facilities lor distribution will not submit to the present allotment. Just what will retult, the year will show, but it will undoubtedly be satisfactory to tno stockholders. Tbe signal bell in tho engineer's cab will soon disappoar. The air train signal is to take its place. It is Worked by a small rub bor tube or iron tubo running undornoalh the coaches. This connects with an iron whistle in the cab. The conductor op erates the signals. This devico is expected to work on tho longest trains and will heud olf train robb-ra who have been in tho habit of cutting cords to prevent com munication with the engineer whtlo rob bing passengers, or looting express pack ages. A monster engine hai lately been con- s rutted lor the Lehigh Valley railroad passenger service. The cab sets over the centre of the boiler, the wbistlo being back of the engineer, almost over the lire box. Hard conl Is used. Tbe fireman has no protection from the weather while work ing, although ho may at times occupy tho left side ol the cab. The headlight is hung over twflive teet from the ground. President MiLeoJ has docidod to have all the I'hila ulphia and Reading passengtr conches rtpinted. Tbe color decided upon will be similar to tho Pullman parlor cars, a dark brown or plum. It will take three years to do tho work. It is tho pur pose ot tho company to uto the shops at CttaAissa.Trontoii Junction and tho Phila delphia and Heading roundhouse at Hoad ing fori lie purposo, The littering of the ctrs will be in gold and it willnqaire about twenty-two books for each car. 1' will be necessary to scrapo every car before tne color is applied. All tho shops, It is understood, will be open on Monday next Those tars whioh are in need of painting now, will be the first to be taken to th shop, whlln tho others will bo continued in soi vice. Tim Too Familiar "Help." Somebody says it is very vulgar to speak of your husband by his last name, nnd citicises Mrs. ' Ilenry M. Stanley for doing so. Tho Woman of the Boston Post know of a dear little morsel of femininity who married a grave and dignified young lawyer, and went to housekeeping in a love of a cottage with a Hibernian cook. Tho little woman in her young bridehood could not mnstcr sufilcieut dignity of speech to call her Hcgo lord Mr. Jones, even to tho cook, but affectionately designated him ''Harry." And one day,' when there was company, Bridget camo to tho parlor door, and announced; "Lunch is ready, nnd will ycz be wait in' for Harry, ma'am?" Somehow the story got out at tho club, and Mr. Jones never qulto forgave his spouse, though thereafter sho punctiliously called him "Mr. Jones" until ho came to bo Judge." Fkke or niiARaR.

A Chlld'i Easy Mastery at An Untamable 8Ullln. A Cleveland horseman tells a remark able story of a child's control of a clous horse, says an exchange. "It seemed to bo a caso of hypnotism. A farmer named White has a very nno Btock farm about threo miles out of tho city. IIo Is a good horso trainer, and prides himself on being able to handle the most vicious types of horseflesh that can bo brought to mm. liut last spring he got more than his match. Somebody sold him a black stallion that was tho worst-tempered creature I ever saw. lie would bite aud strike and kick with such fierceness that no one could get near him, and Whito was Anally obliged to turn him out to pas ture. IIo thought that ho would have to kill him, but of course ho hated to do that, for ho was really a valuabla beast, llut bo was no good, for no one could get near him, to say nothing of con troling him. White has a little boy eleven years old, who is one of tho brightest but most gentle little fellows that I over saw. One morning what was his surpriso and alarm to sec little Halph come galloping down tho lane on tho 'Black Devil's' back as happy as a clown. IIo rodo up to the horse-block, slid off his back, and, putting tho horse's head down to him, stroked and patted his great noso as if lie had been the kindest creaturo in tho world. But as soon as anyone elso went near him the horso would fight like a demon. For several months the little fellow had a good tlmo with his pet, but as no one olse could control him ho was sold to a stage-driver for twenty-fivei dol lars, and the little boy got ten dollars for riding him twenty-five miles and de livering him safely in the stable."
