ON RAILROADS.


There IL nothing which affords greater
encouragement for hope of revival OF
good times and prosperity, than tho in.
tcrest which is being manifested gcncr-
ally in local railways. In many sections
Of this State and in Ohio and Pcnnsyl-
vania, in the Immediate vicinity of this
portion of West Virginia, this interest is
being shown very notably. Not only arc
enterprises, such rs the Pittsburgh,
Wheeling and Kentucky Railroad,
which have been ubundored for
n season, beng rcinvigoratcd, bat
scarcely week passes that we
do not notice from our State
exchanges that acw ones are being con-
sdcrcd fuvornhly and enthusiastically.
Regarding the above mentioned road, we
notice that an effort is being made to re-
organize the company on u new basis,
the object of which Is 10 secure subscrip-
tions, to be paid only when the sum Of
$4,000 shall be subscribed by good and
solvent persons, and also to obtain a
transfer of the interest of Ohio and
Brooke counties in the road to the new
organization. This done it Is c,ti-
mated that the road can
b. completed at cost of between six
and seven thousand dollars mile, or Mt
total of $4,000. 1t is thought too
that if this reorganization can be effected,
the road can bc pushed forward toa com
plctiou to ~ connection with the Pan
Handle road opposite Stcubcnville, IA
distance in nil otahout twenty-five miles,
without difficulty. Regarding the other

CapOul's Dilemma.

A good story is told of an adventure
which recently happened to Capoul in
st. Petersburg, showing that one should
never be negligent in correspondence on
business affairs. One day as the young
tenor was leaving his hotel to attend re-
heaIsal stamped paper, printed in Rus
sian, was put into his hand. He placed
it in his pocket without reading it and
straightway forgot it. Four days later a
similar paper was handed him and this
shared the fate of the first. Yet few
days thereafter, as Capoul was about leav-
Vienna, two gentlemen clad in fur pelisses
called to see him. He invited them
in, and, holding out cigar box with hos
pitable intent, was Mortified to see one of
the gentlemen put the cigar-box under his
arm and likewise to hear him demand his
watch Capoul was about to spar the
men out of the room when one of them in
formed him that he was "huiSsier," or
bailiff, and had come to take possession.
1t seems that Capoul had Endorsed a note
III I'll Glot II ICINL LII dLlOC W 1ldu I1DJ
paid it, and it had been sent on to Russia
for collection. The first printed paper
was notice to Capoul to come into court,
where he had been condemned by default;
the second was command, and as neither
were obeyed the "huissier' came. Ca
poul's trunk ks had gone on to Vienna, SO
the deputy stripped the tenor, leaving
him, as the French papers say, "just
enough to go to bed with, y simply because
he refused to pay the note. By morning
Capoul thought better of the matter, and,
after giving security, was allowed to take
his effects and depart for Vienna. u

A Natural Prejudice.

Mr.. You've, of Jessamine, KY, doesn't
like dogs any more. The fact is, Mr.
Young had recently an experience with
one dog which prejudiced him against the
race from g Old dog Tray, ever faithful, y
etc., to the insignificant pet with a ribbon
Mr.. Young had occasion to call upon a
neighbor upon an Grand, and was just en-
tering the neighbor's yard when a very
large and ferocious bulldog suddenly as
sailed him, rearing up apparently with the
intention of Selling him by the throat. MI.
Young, fortunately for him, made the first
grab, and seized the dog by the throat
himself, intending to throttle the animal.
The dog didn't throttle worth a cent, and
there they stood, man and dog, one anx-
ious, Ele other ferocious. Mr.. Young
was afraid to let go, and the dogs eyes,
which met his, told him he hadn't better.
Three or four frightened children in the
yard were sent after their mother, who
soon appeared upon the scene, but could
" Mr.. Young, [ can give you no assist
ance; he is very vicious, and If L should
strike him he would turn upon me-" Here
was a nice situation for man with a
bulldog, but Mr.. Young was equal to the
situation. He directed the woman to look
for rope, which she eventually found,
and then ventured to put about the dogs
neck. Then, very carefully, Mr.. Young
took the dcg out to the very end of the
rope and let go suddenly. The rope
proved reliable, and escape was secured,
but, under the circumstances, it is only
natural that the hero of the affair should
feel prejudice against the whole race of
doors

Amusing the Baby.

WHEN the baby is just able to open its
little, unused eyes it is first induced to
gaze upon the lamp. The infant, with
weak, pinkish, half-open eyes, is suf-
ferer beyond any power to tell of or get
relief from it's own woes, and yet the
torment of making it gaze at ''ze putty
yed yight" is supposed to be exquisitely
amusing. After the bother with the sun
and lamp the baby is jumped at, screamed
at and otherwise startled until its
nerves are disturbed beyond ordinary
quieting. 1t is a subject Of marvel to
most people that so many children die in
infancy, but to an observing and reflect
ing mind the wonder is that any children
grow to maturity. When you and l feel
miserable we want to be left in quiet.
Repose is the sweetest remedy for our
nervous or other ills, but baby is trotted,
bounced, toted, "ketchy -ketchied,"
chucked under its chin, poked in its
cheeks, or somebody's thumb is thrust
into its toothless mouth irrespective OF a
need Of ablution, and then if baby isn't
ldppy IL 10 4C puGCu Vel 11llIdD1t-
ling the baby's feet, creeping the fingers
like the motion of a mouse across its
breast, and up into its fat, sensitive neck
wrinkles is another mode of amusing
baby. Of course the child laughs, and
the idiots who torment it forget that it is
the same expression with which they re-
ply to similar process from the hand OF
some mischievous but torturing friend;
and yet we all know that this laugh from
a man is an hysterical outcry of nervous
When the laugh ceases
WEAKNESS brings weeping, or perhaps a
restless and undressing sleep, followed
by depression and probably by indiges-
ton and colo. Nothing should ever be
done to startle child-even too fire.
Quent playing of bo-peep, if violent, has
been known to bring on st. Vitus' dance
with delicate organizations. All sur
prises are dangerous to the nerv-
Gus system, just as all sudden atrnos-
pheric or dietetic changes are very I'M
healthy and sometimes fatal If music
is selected to please the young child's
ears it should be gentle and soothing

"Cutting a Dido"

This phrase is older than most people
imagine. Do you call to mind the story
Of Dido, Princess Of Tyre? Her husband,
Acerbas, priest of Hercules, was murdered
for his wealth by the King Pygmalion,
brother to Dido. The widowed Princess
was enabled to escape from Tyre, bearing
with her the wealth of her husband, and
accompanied by a number of disafected
mobiles.
After variety Of adventures they
landed on the coast of Africa, where Dido
bargained with the natives for as much
land as she could inclose in a bulls hide.
Selecting large, tough hide she caused il
to be cut into the smallest possible threads
with which she inclosed large tract OF
country, on which the city of Carthage
soon began to rise.
The natives were bound by the letter OF
their bargain, and allowed the cunning
Queen to have her way; and after that,
when anyone had played off sharp
trick. they said he had "cut a Dido. ii
That was almost 5000 years ago, and the
saying has come down to our day.
