THE RAILROADS.

IMPORTANT CHANGES.
Mr.. j. @. a. Bean, the able and popular Gen
era1 Freight Agent of the Michigan Central
Railroad, has resigned Ills position. Mr.. Bean
had contemplated this step for some time Dast,
but at the urgent request OF General-Manaeer
1,cdyard he consented to remain with the Com
nany until now The cause Of Mr.. Beams resig-
nation this time Is the same that caused him to
resign the position Of General Freight Agent OF
thc Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad
some years axo-a preference for living In the
Fast. Mr.. Bean accepted the General Freight
Arcncy Of the Michigan Central Railroad with
rrcat reluctance, and onEy at the urgent tn
treaty Of the managers OF the road, as he was
tbn,,rht to be the best man to step into the
siocs Of Mr. G. C. Wheeler, and IFS steward
shin has shown the wisdom of the selection.
Mr. Bean has made hosts OF friends, not only In
Chicago, but througuut the West, all OF whom
regret his determination not to become a West
Assistant General Freight Agent J. 4. Gricr
has bcep promoted to the position OF General
Freight Agent. The selection is 4 very f0rtu-
nate one, and no better man could haye been
found to follow Mr.. Bean. Mr.. Grier was for
mcrly Division Freight Agent of the Pittsburg,
noiuted Assistant General Freight Agent OF the
Michigan Central in March, lS76. In that posi-
ton he has shown himself to be an able, carn-
est. and conscientious freight man. He assumes
his new position with a full knowledge OF the
business OF the roatl, ami it Is safe to predict
that he will fully justify the wisdom OF his Sc
lection. The position Of Assistant General
Freight Agent has not vet been filled, but Sc
lection will be made in week or two.

cidentally dropped the whole thing,
and made the biggest 'pi' Mr.. Smith
ever had to sort.
The Office left town next day, and
the villagers felt themselves much de-
frauded. Every one who had paid his
subscription, and some who had not,
grumbled exceedingly, for small dull
town, every mole-hill becomes noun
tain.
When the week came around, to
their utter amazement, they received
their papers as usual.
This was another subject for talk,
and the unanimous decision arrived at
was, that the paper was printed in
St. Paul.
Harry and Nell never told of those
four days and nights work. Nell re-
turned to her books and crochet,
though that had rather lost it's charm
for her, and Harry went to st. Paul, to
make arrangements for business.
| And every week the Empress came
out as usual.
When at last the final issue was
mailed, Nell packed her trunks and
took the stage one morning for St.
Paul.
Harry was in successful business
with Mr.. Harte, and when after a
week or so sightseeing and idling
around, Nell began to long for work,
she laughingly proposed to take pc.
sitionHn their Office.
They told her they had other bust.
ness for her.
s'I'llgive you plenty to do as sister.
said Harry, rising, as he spoke, to
give an order to a waiter at the door.
'sAnd las wife, whispered Mr..
Harte.
Nell turned away, but he seized her
hand.
"May will you! don't say NO,
Nellie, he hurriedly whispered.
Nell didn't say ssNo' and moreover
she sat very still, and said nothing
while he kissed her hand and whis
pered:
"Silence gives consent
Harry returned but sudden silence
seemed to have fallen on those two
whose whole lives had changed in that
one moment of his absence.
ssWhat has come to you two!" he
said, looking at them; 'sdid a whirl

TELOPHoNlc MUSIC.

At a recent telephone concert in
Washington, it was stated by the
lecturer that the electric waves of
sound sent through single wire are
frequently conveyed, indirectly, by
other wires running parallel with it
on the same poles, although entirely
disconnected from it. This statement
was verified in the Washington office
of the Associated Press, where a
number of the tunes played in Phila.
delphia, and conveyed electrically to
Lincoln Hall in Washington, were
distinctly heard on the relay used in
the Press Office, which had no connec.
ton with the wire that was attached
to the telephone. The tones thus con
veyed, although not loud, were stated
to be audible at distance af several
yards from the instrument.

And storm from the north blew loud,
From the icy north it hurried forth,
And dark grew sea and cloud.
It whistled down the mountains height,
1t smote the quivoring chords with might,
But still my harp gave back to me
It's tender, heavenly melody.
All me, that such heart were mine;
Responsive toned and true,
When all was glad, when all was shine,
Or when storms of sorrow blew,
That so, mid all the fret and strife,
The Earring undertones of life,
My life might rise to God, and be

HOW TO LIVE LONG.

The desire for length of days seems
to have been far greater in times past
than it is now. With view of be-
slowing some timely hints on our
active business men, who are rushing
on in pursuit of riches regardless of
the exhaustion of their physical and
mental faculties, our contemporary
the New York Sun publishes lengthy
article, from which we condense the
following:
Nearly all the principal writer's on
longevity are agreed that human
beings may, under the most favorable
en- litions, live to hundred, and
several have recorded instances of
per5on reaching much greater age;
but the instances given do not in any
case satisfactorily bear rigid examina.

MOLES.

A correspondent of the Ohio Guilt
vator says: "There are two kinds of
moles in this country-English and
American. The English mole is rath-
er small, with short, thick, blue fur;
it's feet are large, bread, and powerful,
used in burrOwing; its nose is also very
strong, for the same purpose. 1t runs
in burrows, underground generally.
/ have seen it, when plowed up in
corn fields, burrow under the loose soil
rapidly, simply by the use of its nose,
going, even in hard ground, faster
than dog can follow by digging. !
suppose this mole hibernates in ex-
IRENE cold weather, as have not no.
ticed it during the colder part of this
last winter. ! think for this reason
that it's food must be chiefly worms
and insects, as these are all gone in
cold weather.
"The other mole is about as large as
a half-grown rat. It's fur is grayish
brown on the outside, but blue close
| to the skin. It's feet are not SO large
or powerful as those Of the English
mole, and it's runs are mostly on the
surface of the ground, under grass.
weeds. or rubbish. It's nostrils are
extended beyond all other parts Of the
nose. Its smell is very acute, also it's
hearing, but its vision is poor, making
it depend upon its smelling and hearing
for it's principal guides in the rapid
pursuit of insects. The mole 5 mouth
has. in the fore part, four long sharp
incisors-two in upper, two in lower
jaws, like the squirrel and other ro-
dents. In the back part of the jaw, at
this season of the year, the teeth are
fat and square, like the grain-eating
animals-not rounded and sharp as in
the animals entirely insect-eating.
So their teeth must have come in con-
tact with some hard substance which
ground off the sharp points. Again,
they have double stomach, large and
small intestines, ETC., while the ami
mails Of entirely insectreating habit
have small and simple stomach, and
! scarcely any intestines save the ESQ
phagus and pylorus.'
