Very Obedient Masonic Lodge.

If the following had not appeared in d
respectable journal, we might have sus-
pected il was somewhat oycrdone. As
1t is, it must be true, though we confess
il smells rather fshy:
GA Masonic lodge in Indiana was
presided over by Master who had an
exaggerated notion of discipline.
One night be had met his lodge in call,
cd meeting mot member absenD to in
struct them in the work. Teaching
them the use OF gravel, he had just call
cd them up with three knocks when he
leaned back too far, fell against the WIN
fell to the ground tour stories, and brok Q
his neck. Picked up next morning be
was buried decently, but not Ma; on
came to the funeral. More strange still
not Mason appeared in the village. Ii
was inexplicahle. Forty-two women left
widows, two hundred and twenty chill
drcn left orphans and eighty four mer.
chants left in the lurch with unpaid bills.
"Twenty years after that, somebody
went up to that fourth story, broke OPP
en- the door, and beheld the lodge, a
lodge of skeletons Strange, but never.
theless true. they had rigidly obeyed
the orders of the ". NJ. and waiting for
the knock to seat them, had starved to
death. Each was standing in an atti.
tude of respe' tful attention, "looklng TO
the East" and had not tho plying citi-
zens taken them down and tenderly re-
moved them, they would have standing
there yet. Such is life"

Railroad Profits.

The New York Railway Age estimates
that SIS, 900, 900, or SO per ceGt. of the
capital invested in American roads, is
unproductive to investors. In 1876, of
six hundred and ninety one railroads
only one hundred and siyty-five paid
dividends, and of these one hundred and
three paid small ones. The one hundred
and sixty FIVE roads paid Sl5, 200, 900 or
less than per cent on the stock. And
several Of these paying roads are new in
the bands ofrecciyers.
This is easily explained. Fully one
half of the railroads that paid no divi-
dcnds TO their stock holders made money.
But their profits were absorbed By inside
rings. The sleeping car companies, and
fast freight companies, and leased line
companies, and other organizations in
side of the Railroad Companies, take the
cream Of the railroad business, and leave
the unfortunate Stockholders the skim
milk. inside rings, composed Of favor
ed directors and managers, make money
at the expense of their companies.
1t is true that many Roads, and espc
cially many Western Roads, do not pay
because they cannot command enough
business to make them pay. They were
built in advance OF any demand for
them, in the expectation that they would
assist in rapidly developing the country,
and thus build up a business that would
pay. Generally they received large sub
sides, either from the National Govern
ment, the States or the people, and they
do as a rule, pay u fair interest on the
money their owners actually invested in
them. They do not pay fair interest
on "watcrcd stock" and neither does the
New York Central. Squeeze tie EVA
ter" ont of the stock of the railroads,
and nine-tenths of them are paying, and
will continue TO pay, fair interest on
the money actually invested in their con
struction.

ling il Soutny was accustomed TO
take in the substance of q book in turn
ing the leaves over continuously, and
Clancing down the pages Hondan. The
magician trained himself TO quickness of
perception, when boy, by running past
a shop window at full speed and try
ing to tell what was in it
We once saw a man on canal boat who
was amusing himself by going from pas
senger to passenger and telling almost
every one where he had seen him before,
on such traiL, in such hotel, in such
a street, giving date and place TO people
with whom he had never exchanged
word. This training is carried to a
marvellous extreme by back woodsmcn,
trappers and men who guess the weight
OF animals. Perhaps the most remark
able Instances are the markers who leap
from log TO log at the mouth OF boom
whilst standing on the log, and transiat-
ing instantly an old mark into new one,
boring what equivalent 10 give
