The Washington STR gay. !:

Mr.. Jonn w. Garrett has been reelected
president of the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road for the twenty-fourth time. When he
first entered the Office, nearly quarter Of =
century ago, the road was in anything but
prosperous condition, and its securities were
way below par. Under his management
the road has become one Of theleading trunk
lines Of the country. Mr. Garrett displays
a great deal Of independence in his conduct
of tie road. He maintains a telegraph sys-
TEN, and refuses TO combine with the great
telegraph monopoly. He refuses to accede
to the exorbitant demands of th, Pullman
monopoly, and runs sleeping and parior
cars which belong to his company. He or
ganized an association something on the Or
der of life insurance company, for the
benefit Of the employees Of his road, and it
is now pronounced success. The road is
an important feeder to Washington. Last
year it ran, upon an average, forty-eight
passenger trains in and out Of this city daily
! This year the number has increased 10 about
seventy-fve.

pulled cut little package Of gold

ace lost. and the dealer. picking up
the package, unfolded it and
weighed out the dust, which was
$50 worth. He was about to cast
the paper aside when the Celestial
motioned to it and asked that it
might be given back. as it had some
washing accounts On it
The paper was returned. and the
next night be vas there again, bet
ting $50 in gold dust as before. He
put his package carefully on the ace
and won. The dealer handed out
$50 and the Cinnamon shook his
head.
"What is the matter. John2"
"You payee alice I bet One

The dealer laughed contemptu-

the package, showed a 500 bill laid
in between the double piece of pa
