STEAM WRESTLING AS FINE ART.-The
perfoI manees of the locomotive whistle, we are
told, have been systematized on q western rail-

brakes" thirty-two whistles, "up brakes" forty
whistles and two snorts, 'sback up" The in
structions add: ain case of doubt, whistle like
the d." at street crossings whistle "consid-
erably." Again: "Aiways whistle before din

valve open during dinner. After dinner what
and squirt water; then back up. Then 60 ahead
With whistle. . squirt, and a ring" This
sibillant method being achieved, may we not
hope that the scream of the engine may in time
be modified into something melodious? Then,
indeed, we might have such Instructions ID the
driver as these: "FOr down brakes play the
chromatic scale; for up brakes the scale In G.;
for "a back MP the first six bars of the Over
ture 10 Tampa; in case of doubt, a double trill;
and at street crossings, series of significant
runs" This, with some wild a1agio ID be per-
formed after accidents, should the locomotive
be well enough to appear, would render the sig
nal system very completely y. Tribune.

ders over his spectacles, and when the young
man kissed her the fifteenth time, he merely
broke his sermon short OFF in the middle of

half of "the young man in the pink neck-tie

They ere nearly in corresponding latitudes, Sau
Francisco being in 81 deg. is min. north, aud
Melbourne in 81 deg. AZ min. south, the one be-
ing only one mile nearer the equator than the
other. Both originated as towns in 1895, were
comparatively Insignificant until the discovery
OF gold in adjacent regions, suddenly grew into
great wealth, suffered from q decline in the
gold yield within five years of the beginning of
gold mining, and finally became great concen-
tratlng and distributing centeIs for the agricul-
tural products of the country Jund about them,
where the husbandmen found a slower but not
less sure field for the pursuit of wealth than
that which the miner had found few years
before.
