Twenty Thousand Annual Passes

CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-The Times Of this
city states that since New Years day the
managers Of roads centering in this
city have issued about thirty thousand an
nual passes. Probably seven-tenths Of
these have been Issued in exchange for Sim
liar favors from other railro ID companies.
A very few have been issued to editors,
still fewer to large shipper. some to stock
holders. and good many to civil Office
holders. A road that IS 30 unfortunate n

enmity by falling to make him . New
Years present Of a free pass. Passes have
been issued by all the roads in the state to
members Of the legislature. II has probab-
ly been ascertaimed that the cheapest
way to escape the malicious opposition of
the average legislator il to mail him pass
at the beginning Of the year. It would be
unjust to accuse the railroad companies Of
trying to influence legislation BY means of
free passes, bat it 10 we'll known that they
often give them to escspe the annoyance of
q captions opposition that would be waged
against them il they were ignored. Tho
scalpes will be rejoiced to hear thaE passes
have been issued to members Of the legisla-
ture. Heretofore they have generally found
the legislator ready and anxious to sell his

weakness Of the lawmakers, the traffic in
passes would not have amounted to much.

Dropped Dead.

From Esquire Boucher, of this city, We
learn that DR.. f. E. Hand, of Woodville,
died very suddenly, on Wednesday Of last
week, of apoplexy. He had gone out to
saddle his horse, and dropped dead in the
stable. The Doctor was an old resident
in this section, having lived here over
twenty five years. The remains we're
buried on the following Sunday, with ma
sonic honoB.
Since the Doctors death, rather a curl
Gus incident in the family history has been
developed. He had an interesting daugh-
ter, not yet turned eighteen, who was long
wooed BY . very worthy young man in the
neighborhood. The father objected to the
marriage on account of the youth of his
pet, but he was skillfuly circumvented.
The young people rode away together, on
the 18th of October last, visited a magis-
trate and were united in matrimony. They
then returned and each went about his or
her business. Just as if nothing unusual had
happened, or the old relation was un.
changed. The young husband continued
his visits to the house, but always as a
visitor and lover, and the marriage was
kept profound secret until after the Ca
lamity which bereft the young lady Of her
father Moberty Monitor.
