A. Needed Reform.

A Brooklyn lawyer, Mr.. Michael Grus-
chenske has taken the steps prescribed by
law To shorten his name to Michael Cru We
make mention OF this private matter In the
interest Of the public II Mr.. Grus example
should be generally followed, the result would
be a large economy OF valuable time, to say
nothing OF paper and ink. His is BY no means
the only name which might wisely be short
ened. How convenient it would be to call the
city half way between New York and Albany
POUCH, or plain Pc, instead OF Poughkeepsie?
There Is Western city which has tried the
patience Of continent. Not so much because
OF its length as because Of it's multiplicity of
Ms and i's, Cincinnati is an evaporation to
writers and printers. Why not say Gin? The
short and easy Gin Com would furnish new
bond Of union with one Of the most esteemed
Of our contemporaries. Mississippi Is another
unmanagsable name. Why not say Mispi?
1t would be easy to multiply cases ripe for the
reform which Mr.. Cru has begun

A Caution Against shut IN G. anne.


This being the season when game killed by
shooting, and probably containing the pellets,
is eaten, 1t may be worth while to caution
those who consume the flesh of birds with
avdity that the proportion of instances III
which shot is found Is PROBABLY small in COM
parlsnH with the number OF cases III which
the pellets are unwttingiy swallowed. It Is
matter of speculation how much mischief q
shot may do In passing into the intestines,
but the fact that anomalous Diseases have
been set up by tho presence of very small
bodies which have been entangIed In folds OF
the muGuous membrane renders 1t desirable to
put the public on their guard. Occasionally
the most disastrous results have followed
such small causes. We have In recollection
the case Of q physician who died, after pro-
longad and unexplained suffering from the
impaction Of o very small nail which had
found Its way into pudding and was mad
vertently swallowed. A little care will avoid
this contingency. but, remembering that the
bird had been shot, some paius ought GER
tainly to be taken to avoid swallowing the
missile.

Business Revival.
baltimore Herald.1

A significant evidence of return of
prosperous times is seen in the fact that
the Baltimore & Ohio and the Pennsyl-
vania Railroads are now barely able to
meet the enormous demands upon them
for freight facilities The wonderful flow
of Western grain to the seaboard for ex-
port is the main cause of this; but the
aggregation of all manner of miscellane-
Gus freights adds very greatly to the gen.
eral outlook.
The Baltimore & Ohio Road is largely
increasing its facilities for freight and
passenger traffic, and the Pennsylvania
Road has within a few days ordered the
construction of 800 new freight and
twenty-four passenger cars. On the form
er road all its machine shops and iron
mills are thronged with operatives work
ing on full time, thus afording relief to
thousands who have been SO long in need
of bread.
Corroboration of the influx of renewed
prosperity is had in the busy throngs in
our wholesale and retail establishments.
Hundreds of Southern merchants are
coming and going, and thousands of Bal
timore's beautiful women and thrifty
housekeepers are fitting about the re-
tail shops, purse in hand and bargains on
the brain.

Love i'm the ApennineS.

Beppa, who gives us much informa-
tion, thus describes the mountain Gus
tom of making love: "When a young
man who has never had any thought Of
marriage sees, at last, a certain maiden,
he says within his own heart, That girl
would suit me- So he goes and speaks
to her, saying, Good damsel, are you
betrothed? If the girl answers yes,
he has to give up thinking about her; but
if she blushes and says, Nobody has
asked for me, he demands, will it please
you to let me make love to- you, and then
if we like each other l will ask you of
your father? (Che tt piacerebbe di far
Pamore con me? E poi Sc ci piaciamo
Puno all altro vi domandem per sposa. J
So" adds Beppa, che makes his court to
her, and after time asks, We'll, do you
like me well enough to marry me? If
she says, Yes he asks for her, and they
begin to get the corredo ready" "But
supposing the father will not
give his consentT' we suggest, "Why,
then," quoth Beppa, 'either they must
give each other up, or if they can not live
without each other, and if her father
won't let her 60 out at the door, she
jumps out of the window, and they 60 off
without his consent. Parents don't often
refuse without good reason, for they know
it is either life or death to girl. The
corredo is great point in Italian we'd
dings. 1t does not mean simply the
brides personal trousseau, but the house
and bed linen, which it is her part to pro-
vide.
The bride has also to find the furni-
ture of the nuptial chamber, while the
sposo furnishes the rest Of the house. In
some remote parts of Italy a great GER
emony is made of sending home the cor
redo. The mountaineers have very
pretty way of calling dead children
angels. You never hear of child being
morta. They say, "Adele's or Gigia's
angel is to be carried away to-day"
If you ask after lost infant they will
say, "Ah buon anima, good little soul,
he was made an angel on such a day."
When child is baptized, they say it is
"made Christian" and that until it is
baptized the witches have power over it.
They can make no use of anything which
has been signed with the cross.

AN ENGINES TERRIBLE RUN.


Denver Tribune.l
A railroad accident occurred on Meta
Mountain, Friday, by which Pat McCool
lost his life, and which resulted in the de-
molition of several freight cars and ca
boose. The train was cut at the little
station at Sangre de Cristo Greek, on the
west side of the Sangre de Cristo range,
being too heavy for the engine to take up
the grade. The first half was switched
on the summit, and the engine started
to return for the purpose of bring
ing up the rear cars As the en-
gine started back, the forward gear
eccentric broke, totally disabling the left
side, while the strain on the machinery
threw the litter on the right side out of
shape, thus putting the locomotive en-
tlrely beyond the control of the engineer.
There was nothing to control it by.
Realizing at once the impending danger,
the engineer told the fireman and brake
men to jump off, and began to whistle off
brakes to the conductor and brakeman
on the train down the mountain. The
engine was then about three-quarters of
a mile from the rear part of the train, its
rate of speed in descending increasing
every moment.
The men below did not understand the
signal, and it was not till the engine was
within one-quarter of a mile from the
cars that the danger was observed. The
conductor hurried the passengers out of
the caboose and let off the brakes. All
the persons on the train got off except a
drunken laborer named Pat. McCool.
He refused to move, and there was no
time to move him by force, SO the caboose
and cars, the brakes being let loose, dart
ed down the mountain, pursued by the
flying engine. Behind the caboose, and
Of course in front of the train as it shot
down the mountain, were two hand
cars. Going round the curve at
Sangre de Cristo tank, the grade
being 2l7 feet to the mile and the mo-
mentum very rapid, the hand-cars left
the track and ditched the caboose, the
freight cars pushing hard behind, swing
ing the caboose around and passing by,
going into the ditch beyond and on the
other side. This left the caboose half on
the track and only partly on its side.
The engine came tearing along at terri
BILE speed, and, when about forty yards
from the caboose, the engineer jumped
off, followed by the fireman and brake
man, who until then refused to leave
him. Just at this moment the drunken
laborer came staggering out on the rear
platform of the caboose, and was crushed
between the engine and the caboose into
an almost unrecognizable mass.
