nnInw,n,h RiR Order.

The largest order for locomotives in
one block ever placed in this country
has lust been received by the Baldwin
Locomotive works. II comes from the
Denver and Rio Grande Railroad COM
pany, and calls for one hundred and
forty four locomotives, part OF which
number will be delivered next fall and
the remainder during the following
winter. These locomotives are intended
to meet the increased equipment re-
auired By the southern extension OF
the Denver and Rio Grande road, for
which the financial arrangements were
completed a month or 80 ago. Sufi-
cient of the bonds OF the new division
have been subscribed for to enable the
company to proceed with its construc-
tiOn.
Two or three years ago the Baldwin
Company considered an order for ten
locomotives very large one, but all
previous contracts pale into insigniti-
cance before this last demand. The
cost of the la locomotives will sggre-
gate something over 1900, 900, or
about $1,000 apiece, and with the pres
ent force employed in the works-2700
men-it would take about three months
time, providing there was no interrup.
ton, before the engines could be made
ready tor shipment. The Baldwin COM
psny will not begin the work upon
tb EN- for six months yet, and it's Prose-
cution will be in accordance with the
term OF delivery, so that the REF ources
OF thu works need not necessarily be
diverted exclusively to the filing Of
this mammoth order.

A Novel Wad0IBg.

From the Austin (rsxas) Statesman.
A few days ago, up on the Colorado,
q couple bsnt on marriage procured a
license and set out with one or two
friends to look up . psrson' They
reached the river, but alaRl the would
be bride could not cross. They were In
a pickle. The only parson for long,
weary miles was just across the river,
while visions OF irate parents With dou-
bic. barreled shot guns formed a very
long and troublesome procession
through the minds OF the two lovers.
The weather was cold, the river was up
and what could they doS One OF the
escort suggested that hs would swim
the river and see, II possible, the par
son, who undoubtedly would fix up a
plan to tie the nuptial knot. He did
20, found the preacher and soon had
him down on the river bank. The wa
Ter was cold and deep and he refused
point blank to cross over, 10 the very
great distress Of the young couple on
the other side. Necessity is not only
the mother OF inventions, but is the
mother Of expedients. The parson con-
cudsd to marry the couple across the
river and they joined hands and took
their stand near the waters edge, while
the preacher, On the opposite bank, in
stsntorisn voice pronounced the mar
risge service aud declared them Imam
and wife.

AnAciar.Preacher. An

Charley Parsons, who was forty ysara
ago famous actor in Louisville, KY,
vas a vigorous and handsome young
man, and ths promise OF his genius was
then as bright as Forests or Booths
After a few years of active stage life
a change came owe the spirit OF Far
son's dreams and at ons jump he bound
cd to the extreme Of social limits-from
an actor " a preacher.
At that date a Methodist charch was
situated on Fourth street in Louisville,
and a theatre was just around the cor
uer on Jefferson street, and an announ'
cement Tor one night was Richard ILL.,,
with Parsons as the humpback tyrant.
The audience had assembled at the
theslre, and there was crowded house,
The frat sot was called, when 1t was
reported that Parsons was not on hand.
In those days 1t was not an unusual
thing for prominent actors to be missing
at the time for the performances to
oomme noe. and several jokes are told
of managers having to take their prin.
eipal actors out OF pawn before the cur
tain could be rung up. So the ab1ence
OF Parsons was not surprise.
The mystery was, "Where is her'
No one could answer the question and
all the attaches of the theatre were sent
in search Of him.
No one ever thought of looking in a
church for a missing actor, but it was
there that Parsons was fouhd.
The stage carpenter stated the ease
to the sexton of the church, and learn.
ing taat the missing man was on the
inside, went in. The carpenter spied
his man near the front seat, and walk
ing rapidly up the aisle, touched him
on the arm and said,
"First acts called sir
Parsons looked around in utter sur
prise; in his devotion the theatre had
gotten clear ont OF his thoughts entire
ly.
whats the play?" he asked.
"Why, 'Rlchard,' sir" was the an
swer.
And the reply came
"Say that Richard plays another
Part tonight "
The carpenter hurried to the theatre
with the report that Parsons was at
church and gone crazy.
The theatre people at ence invaded
the church and after much talk and ar.
gument, Parsons played Richard for
the last time.
Soon afterwards he left the theatre
for good, and for many years from
ths: was one OF the most prominent
ministers Of Louisville.
At times hs WAS rather hard in speak
ing OF the theatre, but through all the
days of his life he cherished friend
ships that had their beginning at the
old "City Theatre"
Parsona PLAYED a wide range Of char
aoter8 during his career upon the stage,

Wst,erson's Opinion OF Blaine.

From the Louisville Courier Journal, Dem
Mr.. Blaine is man who will ex-
haust the ordinary methods OF pleasing.
But he is also a man who, when his
methods have failed, sets himself bold
ly and alsrtly to crush. No gilded
lording in the Senate can tramp him
down VT hout fight; and Of all men
he seems to be made for the purpose to
which his big-braired but kindly
friend Is about to put him. Mr.. Blaine
as touch of the Earl Of Beaconsfield
in him. Let him, in this matter, emu
late Dizzy, and bring us to a realizing
sense Of our splendor and prowess; not
by the mean bullying Of the weak, but
by boldly tackliug the strong.

Married People Would be
Happier.

If home trials were never told to
neighbors.
Ii they kissed and made up af-
ter every quarrel.
If household expenses were pro-
portioned to receipts,
Ii they tried 10 be as agreeable
as in courtship days.
If each would try to be sup
port and comfort TO the other.
If each remembered the other
was human being, not an angel.
If women were as Kind TO their
husbands as they were to their
lovers.
If fuel and provisions were laid
in during the high tide of summer
work.
Ifboth parties remembered that
they married for worse as we'll as
for better.
If men were as thoughtful for
their wives as they were for their
sweethearts.
If there we've fewer silks and
velvet street costumes and more
plain, tidy house-dresses.
If there were fewer "please darl-
ings,' in public, and more COM
mon manners in private.
If wives and husbands would
take some pleasure as they go
along and not degenerate into
mere toiling machines. Recrea-
ton is necessary to keep the heart
in its place, and to get along with
out it is q big mistake.
If men would remember that
woman can't be always smiling
who has to cook the dinner, an
swer the door-bell half a dozen
times, and get rid of a neighbor
who has dropped in, tend to
sick baby, tie up the cut finger of
a wo-year-old, gather up the
playthings of a four-year-old, lie
up the hand of a six-year-old on
skates, and get an eight year old
ready for school, TO say nothing OF
sweeping, cleaning, etc. A woman
with all this to contend with may
claim it as privilege to look and
feel little tired sometimes, and a
word of sympathy would not be
too much to expect from the man,
who during the honeymoon
wouldn't let her carry as much as
a sunshade. - Saturday Evening
