The Now Hamburu Di,n.,c,.

ALBANY, n, Y, March 2.-The legislative in
veStigation committee occupied over three hours
this afternoon, in examining Superintendent
Toucey, of the Hudson River road, in reference
to the circumstances of the New Hamburg acct
dent, and TO the rules and regulations of The
road. Mr. Touoey said, if the bridge had been
solidly foored, the oil train would probably
have not been thrown off the track, and, from
his conversation with the firemen of the express
train, that night, he was satisfied that he
thought more Of saving his life than putting on
the brakes. He also learned that Simmons the
engineer, sounded his whistle three times before
he put on the patent brakes; whereas his duty
was io.put on the patent brakes before he
sounded his whistles, He did not think the
fireman made proper effort to put on the
brakes, aud that the train ought to have
been stopped with the means at hand
aud notice given. He also said =
we allow a passenger car axle to run only
three years. They become brittle by that time.
On freight cars we run them without regard TO
time. We don't test the wheels on freight cars
between Albany and New York. We test those
OF passenger cars twlce in that distance. IF
this freight train had been tested, perhaps the
defect would have been discovered. The en-
ployes would have heen justified in using any
means to signal danger. He would not have
been ceusured for changing the light TO the sig-
nal tower" 70

The CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY LECTURES.
correspondent of the Springfield Republican
says:
The courses of university lectures established
in connection with the college here are per-
,istently kept up BY President Eliot. who has
faith that they will eventually create an audi
nee, or rather, draw one to this pleasant uni
versity town. 1t cannot be said that they are
successful as yet for Of the thirty-odd courses
that have been given or are still going on here,
40 more than third part have had a
paying audience averaging half a dozen
0ersons,-and the ten most attractive
courses can not boast an average
Of twenty paying hearers, although the fees have
been greatly reduced since a year ago. Setting
lside the courses given in the law school, by
Profs. Torrey and Hadey, where the numerous
,aw students make up good audience, the best
Intended lectures have been those of Mr. r. w.
Emerson and Mr.. Charles G. Perkins, neither of
whom have more than seventy-tive hearers
included professors, underg aduates and
other non-paying persons. On the other
lapd, Mr.. Elliot Cabot reads Kaut to a sin
gle student-a young lady-and Profs. Lane and
Goodwin have no larger audiences for their read
ings from Juvenal and Plato's republic. Indeed,
Prof Goodwin's student could come but once
week, and could not follow the reading of Plato
IN the original, and so the Greek course disap-
,ears from among the university lectures for
ahe present. Prof Sophocles, who lectures on
the patristic theology of the first three Christian
centuries, has few more hearers, among whom
ire Mrs. Howe and one or two other Boston
ladies. Prof. Child, cxpounding "Chaucer
md Contemporary Poets," has ten or dozen
hearers, and Prof. Lowell on old French
poetry has scarcely moe. These lecturers are
Ill masters in their speciality, so tar as this
country is concerned, and some of them are I'M
matched in the world; vet they draw only these
neagre audiences. II the courses can be kept
up for three or four years, without exhausting
che patience of the lecturers, it is hoped that
they will gradually bring to Cambridge
sufficient number Of real students of these
specialtes to maintain them. But at present it
is by heroism and self-lenial on the part of the
professors who give the lectures that they are
kept up.

The emperor Williams Daily Life.

A German publication, the Soldiers Friend,
gives the following account of the Emperor
Williams daily routine:
Ellis majesty usually rises at seven O'Clock, in
summer frequently much earlier, in winter
sometimes later. He never sleeps but in his
own campaign bed, which is carried to all re-
views and military maneuvers which he attends.
If there is already n bed in the room where he
stays, it is taken out and the campaign bed sub
stituted. The latter consists of an iron frame;
it is only a foot high and has but little furni-
ture. In raw weather the king wears his cloak
Oniv q small pocket watch is hung up by the
wall near this simple couch, this being
a favorite SOuCeRir with which the king
was presented in 1914, on accompanying
his royal father in Journey to Neuf-
chatel and through Switzerland. At a pre-
viously fixed, or otherwise at the ordinary time,
if the king has not already rung, two attendants
enter the room. On DAYS when there is to be
battle this occurs at very early hour, as at
Sadowa, where he was awoke at four A. NJ, and
at Gravelottc, where lie was awoke at three for
the king likes to be present 1T the marching out
of the troops. If this is not necessary, dis
patches, &C., are laid on the the table where the
king drinks coffee, so that they come immedi-
atey INTO his hands. The king, as soon as he
rises, dresses from head to foot and remains
dressed the whole day, merely unbuttoning his
overtoat if he is alone in his room or receives
only persons on his suite When other persons
are received he always appears with buttoned
overcoat, as also when he steps up to window
to watch troops marching by or if he knows
that military persons can see him. On
returning from Journeys and reviews, or from a
battle, he changes his linen, but entirely dresses
again A dressing gown, slippers, or any other
domestic luxury which almost every independ-
ent man allows himself at home, the king has
never used, even during indisposition or sick
ness. The king opens all his letters himself,
without exception; even during serious illness
they must be opened in his presence. He sorts
them. On first perusal he makes siens or
marginal comments on them. These signs have
a fixed signification and the officials into whose
hands they come know how to deal with them.
Ali letters destined for the Berlin ministry go
back thither; otherwise they are sent to the au-
thorities at headquarters. Everything goes on
according to regular method, and the king has
really one habt-that of working"
