The building Of narrow guage railways
continues to receive much attention, and
while there Is naturally falling Oft in the
construction of roads of regular gauge.
there has been an important increase in
narrow gauge building. 1t is contended
that the .three feet road can be built at a
much less cost and in a shorter space OF
time also, that the equipment can be
had at less cost The Denver and Rio
Grande Railroad is said to have been saved
from bankruptcy during the panic only on
the account of the manner it could be
utilized as a narrow gauge. Missouri
capitalists are beginning to awaken to this
fact. The line recently established 10 ex-
tend from Bismarck on the Northern Pa
cific railroad to st. Louis via Sioux City
and Des Moines. is to be narrow gauge /;
and it is estimated that $4,000 per mile
can build and equip it. A short line has
been recently constructed centering at
Edgartown, Mass, the construction and
operating expenses of which are said to
be comparatively less than any other road
in New England. The Baldwin Locomo-
tive Works, the largest in the world are
authority for the statement that "up to
July II last, the narrow gauge engines
built and in progress in 1874 amounted to
26 per cent. Of the whole. They add, that
in the year 1873 the proportion was 10 per
cent, and that the panic has not affected
it as much as the wide guage." The or
ders for power shows a steady increase OF
narrow guage business, while the wide
guage has shown considerable decrease.

A Lawyers Advice.

An Irishman, by the name of Tom
Murphy, onoe borrowed a sum of money
from one Of his neighbors, which lie
promised to pay in a certain time But
aonth after month passed by, and no
signs of the agreement being kept, his
creditor at last warned him that if he did
not pay it on a certain day he should sue
him for it and recover by law. This
rather frightened Tom, aud being able to
raise the money, went to 4 lawyer to get
advice on the matter After hearing
TOMS story through to the end, he asked
him:
Has your neighor any writing to show
that you owe him this fifty dollars ?"
"DiviI word" replied Tom, quickly
"Well, then, if you have not the money
you can take your time at all events, he
cannot collect it by law"
Thank yer honor, much obliged" said
Tom, rising aud going towards the door
Hold on, my friend," said the law

"Fat for ?''
"Why, for my advice, to be sure Dc

to strike him.

No Effect.

A German paper contains reply from
q clergyman who was travelling and who
stopped at hotel much frsquented by
wags and jokers. The host, not being
used to having clegymen at his table,

used all their artillery of wit upon him,
without eIicitiug a remark in self defence.
The worthy clergyman ate his dinner
quietly, apparently without observing the

One of them, at last in despair at his

4 Terrible Fate.

Belle Palmer Wheeler, of East Meadow
/ l., who had just married young man
named Wheeler Of the same village, met
an awful death. She had just been
placed in light carriage by her husband
who was preparing to follow her, when
some person fred off a gun in close prox
unity to the horses head as parting
salute to the young couple.
The sudden report frightened the
spirited animal, who gave a bound for
ward, broke from his fastenings and rush
ed at terrific pace down the deserted
street, the light wagon careeniDg from
side to side in meuacing manner. In
attempting to round short curve the
carriage was overturned .and the young
lady thrown, and, becoming entangle in
the harness, was unable to extract her
self, aud was dragged for about half a
mile over the rough road, where the horse
was brought to stand by falling into a
ditch by the roadside.
Here the unfortune young lady was
found by the relatives and husband a
short time after Her bead was nearly
torn from her body, and every limb was
found to be broken ia a mum ber of places.
She was dead when removed, but look
of unutterable agony was fastened upon
her still handsome features, showing what
terrible suffering sac must have endured

Cake still disagrees with him, but he ate
it at breakfast the next morning, aud also

Too Much for Him.

Horace Greeley used to affirm that
newspaper men were the most patient peo
pie, as a class, on the earth, and he was
not far from right, though there are times
when patience ceases to be a virtue with
the most enduring. Nearly everybody
in the western-part of Michigan know.
Burr, who used to start a newspaper about
once month the year round, generally
bringing them out in Grand Rapids, but
sometimes making flying trip to other
potts.
Burr could stand to be told that he
lied about circulation, was on the feucs
as po;,lcian, and that he didn't know
anything about publishing paper and
when men threatened to sue or thrash
him he only smiled sad smile and wish
ed that mankind wouldn't get excited.
During a religious revival at Grand
Rapids, Burr was converted, aud it fre
quenty happened that religious people
called at his Office to talk with him. One
day minister came 10 aud, after talking
u while, he proposed prayer.
He was in the act of kneeling, when
his foot strvck Que Of the outside forms,
which was leaning against leg Of the
