Not Gallant.

A painful feature of Continental life
is the lack of gallantry on the part of
gentlemen toward ladies-outside the
drawing-room, of course. In Germany
no gentleman would think of turning
out for lady whom he met on the side
walk. She might be crowded into the
gutter for all he would care, unless he
happened to be acquainted with her,
when his politeness would be profuse
enough. The story is told of an Eng
lish girl in Berlin, who at last rebelled
against the indignity of being compelled
to make way for every man she met.
She determined that she would yield no
longer. She had scarcely began her
first promenade after announcing her
resolution, when she found herself OPP
posite an astonished gentleman, who
had suddenly stopped for fear of run
ming over her. He evidently expected
her to turn out for him; but she held
her place. At last, with a bewildered
look from his great blue eyes, he spoke /:
" am waiting" Instead of answering
" So am l." she gave up the con-
test and walked around the obstruction.
She should have been an American girl
just at that moment. Imagine one of
our smart Yankee maids being SO easily

The Western Railroad Alliance.

The full text of the celebrated COM
pact entered into at the meeting of rail
road magnates at Saratoga last July
was published for the first time in New
York in the Graphic of October 20,
and this publication furnishes the first
opportunity to realize the full magni-
tude of this tremendous combination of
hitherto antagonistic railroad interests.
This combination is in brief union by
which twenty-three large railroads form
ing q complete chain of communication
between New York and Omaha bind
themselves to adhere to uniform rates
of tariff as fixed from time to time by
seven commissioners selected from
among the companies, and to indulge
in no competition among themselves.
The alliance thus formed is one Of
the most stupendous in its magnitude
that has ever existed in this or any
other country. The number of roads
included is larger than that composing
the entire railway system of many of
the States of Europe, and the miles of
railroad to be operated under its rules
would be enough to stretch across the
continent.
To furnish some idea of the vast ag-
gregation of capital which the great
alliance represents the following table
is presented, showing the actual paid
up capital and outstanding bonds of
the roads uniting in the compact:

A History of Moving Machines.

The oldest moving machines, though
very rude, were used by the Gauls. A
cart, having blades arranged in front,
was pushed forward into the grain by
oxen hitched on behind, and thus cut
on the heads. A system of six rotating
scythes was made by Joseph Boyce in
1899, and an attempt to use the same
principle was made by Gompretz and
Mason, in 1852. In 1S11-lS15, Smith,
of Deans, once brought out machine
in which a short vertical revolving
cylinder carried knife on its lower
end but all these rotating machines
have proved impracticable. Robert
Meares, in Frome, in Somersetshlre,
established, in 1900, the shear principle
as the only practical one. Salmon, in
Woburn, in 1907, built a machine with
a row of blades and fingers moving over
them, and also applied the reel. The
Scotch parson, Patrick Bell, of Forfar-
shire, in 1896, and William Manning,
of Plainfeld, n. j., in 1882, were the
founders of the present style of ma
chine. Manning was the first to attach
the draught at the end of the machine.
all others previously having been
Duollcu DtulHV. ODCb iiuooeJ'
of Cincinnati, attached the side-plat-
form and slit-fnger. Mccormick, then
of Rockbridge, Va, now of Chicago, in
1896 improved the Manning and Hus-
sey machine, and the appearance Of
these at the London Exposition, In
1851, was the signal for their introduce
ton into general use.
The Oldest neutrality-suspicious. lex
cept the antiquesD was made by
Michael Menzies, in 1872, or perhaps
at the same time by Tull, consisting of
rotating cylinder with fails. Several
others followed shortly, some like a
four-mill, and in 1892, Willoughby, of
Bedford, made one like that of Men
zies, which Won Thaer brought to Ger
many, and which served as a model for
the Mecklenburg thresher. The ma.
chine of James Wardropp, of Ampthell,
in Virginia, is on a similar principle,
only the heaters are sticks moving up
and down. Finally, in 1856, Andrew
Meikle, of birmingham, East Lothian,
laid the foundation of the present form,
by using drum with four beaters
parallel to the axis. that carried the
grain between itself and concave,
furnished with similar rods. An
American, named Moffitt, in 1854, sub
stituted spikes for the rods, though
Menzes' machine adheres to the old
system.

A Trick Upon The Ignorant.

The new 81 legal-tender note has
upon its back two large cross lines,
which form almost the Roman figure
ten. To the Impractical handler OF
money mere glance at the reverse
side would indicate that it represented
on it's back ten times the value of its
face. In the South the colored people
in many instances have received them
for $40 bills, and the Treasury is adj
vised that quite profitable business
has been carried on by some scamps in
