NARROW GAUGE RAILROADS.
Kama wha Courier.

Kanawha Courier.
The construction OF Narrow Gauge
Railroad between this city and Parkers
burg is the main topic OF conversation in
this city at the present time, At the meet
ing held at the Court House on Monday
evening last, there was great deal said by
the gentlemen who addressed the meet
ing about the cost per nile OF construct
ing said road, and none were disposed TO
concede that this road could be con
structed for less than $4,000 per mile
Oar friends in Richie county have bull Z
road of this kind, and IN commenting
upon the price paid for the construction
OF it the Raiilcay Age says:
1--WE have noted several chesply built
local railways, but the Pennsbo-o' and
Harrlsville, in West Virginia g leet
gauge), is about the cheapest yet The
President writes us that the whole cost
OF the nine miles of road, including u
locomotive, a passenger car, and 2 gon-
dola cars, is $4,000, which is an average
Of SO, 1873 per mile The capital stock is
$4,000, and the property is mortgaged
tor the iron, etc, for $4,000, running
ten years at per cent. The earnings
from $500 to 5000 per month; the ex-
penses about $500. At this rate the net
earnings are from $3.50 to $24O per
month, or say, from $500 to $4,000 per
year The lowest figure would pay q
| handsome interest on the entire cost of
the property, which is what very few
railways in this or any other country do
| now a-dsys. We would like ve-y much
| to have the exact figures for an entire
years operation. One other noteworthy
feature besides the remarkably small
cost of the road is suggested IN this item:
No paid officers on this road but two
freight agents, who are paid 800 per
annum each Here is something for
other companies to read and consider
When they get the aggregate pay to
their officers and agents down to 5000
per year they will begin to make
money"

A remarkable story of ''snske charm
ing" has been brought TO light here. Mr..
Luke Brewer lives near the dock in this
city, and is the father of little girl and
boy, aged respectively nine and SIX years
He discovered on Saturday last that MS
children had been in the habit of play
ing with water snake three and halt
feet in length. 1t appears that the rep
tile had made its land home underneath
the kitchen flooring OF Mr.. Brewer S
dwelling, and came thence through an
orifce in the ground just outside the house.
The little girl, on the day above men
toned, informed her father that they
had pretty pet just like ar eel, that
came out of hole in the ground and
played with them and the kittens. He
asked the child 10 show him where it was,
while he was there. He lett for few
minutes, and, while returning, was met
by his daughter, who said she had called
her pet, and it was now playing with her
brother. The frightened father fastened
to the yard, and WAS almost para yzed
with fear Oh discovering his little boy
csressing the snakes head He ordered
the little fellow away. The child reluct-
sntly complied by stepping back, where
upon the father seized club, when the
reptile commenced to make for its den.
The boy then moved toward it, calling it
endeGing names, and was about to pick
it up again, when Mr.. Brewer dispatched
it, against the earnest and fearful entreat-
les of the infatuated children. The bow,
robust, hearty little fellow, refused to
be comtorted, abs;ainlng iGom food
the rest ofthe day, and begging to be
allowed to bring the dead serpent into
the house. Mr.. Brewer thinks that the
children had been amusing themselves
all the summer with their strange pet
The tail of the snake TOR distance Of
three inches from the END bore evidence
that two kittens, which We're in the house
had also been participants in the sport
