What Trains are Worth
THE MONEY VALUE OF THE LIMITED
EXPRESS AND OTHER TRAINS.

IhE hONHf VALUE OF THE LIMITED
EXPRESS AND OTHER TRAINS.
indianapolis Journal.1
But few persons, as they see fast
express trains fit by, are aware OF
the value of such q train. What Is
know as the Royal limited express
over the Pennsylvania road, as the
train is ordinarily made up, represents
over $l20, 900, as follows: Engine, $12,-
600; baggage car, $1,000: smoking-c car,
S5 900; dining room car, $4,000; five
elegant Pullman cars, $4,000 each,
$4,000. While this may seem to be
an exception, the ordinary express
trains represent $39 900 to $s5, 900. The
engine and tender, which are consid
cred together, valued at $4,000; the
baggage-car, $1,000; the postal car,
$1,000; the smoking-car; ST, 200; the
two ordinary passenger cars, $40, 900
each, and three palace cars, $751; 900
each-t0tal. $4,000. This is a low
rather than an excessive estimate of
one of the fast expresses. The palace
cars, put down at $4,000, are in many
cases worth $lS, 900, and some Pullman
cars are now run which cost in the
neighborhood of $50, 900. 1t is stated
that the average value of freight
train is still greater than passenger
train, when the rolling stock and
value Of property carried are included
Sometimes the freight on one of these
through trains aggregates in value
$3.50, 900 to $500, 900, and what is little
singular Is the fact that the trains
moving westward are more valuable
than those moving eastward-a large
per cent. of the westward bound busi
ness Is merchandise Of valuable ma
chinery, while nearly IS per cent of
the eastward bound business is grain
which is carried in a car costing $3.50,
and the property carried will average
$40J per car, 80 that the entire train of
twenty Ave GERS, engine included, are
not worth over $4,000 to $35. 900,
while frequently one carload of mer-
chahdise coming West will represent
that value, and these palaces on wheels
carrying thousands of passengers and
the thousands of freight cars carrying
millions of valuable property are de-
pendent for safety upon one man-the
engineer. There are other men-the
conductor, baggagemaster, firemen,
and three or four brakemen-
but the hand upon the lever and the
brain directing it have an immense
responsibility.

-Philsdelphia is about to celebrate
her 200th birthday, and she wants all
the world to know 1t. The bi-centen.
NAL celebration-the principal feature
OF which is to be grand military and
civic parade on the 9th of October
promises to be grand success. Ten
thousand volunteer soldiers will be in
line, Of which number Pennsylvania
will furnish 5000 and there will be
1000 from other states There will
also be 5000 OF the Grand Army of
the Republic In line. An invitation
will be extended to all the state troops
in the country to take part in the
parade, and arrangements will be
made for the transportation Of all who
desire to participate. In addition, be-
nevolent organizations. musical asso-
Citations, and trades unions will com
bine to make the parade one OF the
largest ever witnessed in this country.
The flogging of offenders is some
thing that Britons give up llingly.
It is still a common form Of punish
ment inflicted by magistrates in Eng
land. The whipping Of three boys at
Rowley for attempting to wreck a
railroad train, for instance, get only
eight lines in the London Times, the
event seeming to excite no interest.
As to 1ogging in India, where it is in
flicted for petty thieving, the Pail
Mall Gazette says: "All the author
tiles are agreed that whipping is a
proper and necessary form of punish
ment, and in this view the supreme
Government concurs. Only the most
ignorant class of sentimentalists could
Judge otherwise. 1t is the only
punishment which the habitual Jail
bird fears. The culprit who is whip
ped is not taken from his work, and
rs result his family are not left to
starve. Again, whipping Is a public
punishment which impresses the very
classes it is desirable to deter. Lastly,
it is cheap punishment, for it does
not compel the State to support the
criminal" A contrary view is taken
by the St. Jamess Gazette, which says,
after quoting a statement that the
abolition of flogging in the army had
greatly disgusted the officers in Egypt:
1.-THE correspondent may be a faithful
chronicler; but If 80, the feeling of
disgust among civilians that officers
in the.army are unable to keep order
without brutal measures of violence
will bestill more extreme. Every other
civilized army is able to get on with
out the cat why should the English
army be the solitary and the discredit
able exception?" Truth tells a peril
nent story, illustrating the freedom
with which the lash was used in the
Crimean days: IA long suffering firm
OF London tailors despatched our Mr..
So-and-so' to collect outstanding ac-
counts. It was never clearly made out
whether the provost marshal was ap'
piled to for check; but what is
certain is that he picked up our Mr..
So-and-so' drunk and disorderly In
Kadikof town. In half u minute the
unhappy civilian was tied up and
treated to q couple of Dozen"

There are many at the age of thirty 10 sixty
who are troubled with too frequent oYacua-
ton of the blauder, often accompanied by q
slight smarting or burning sensation and q
weakening of the system in manner the
patient cannot account for. On examining
the urinary deposits ropy sediment will
often be found, and sometimes small particles
of albumen will appear, or the color will be
of thin mtlkish hue, again changing to a
dark and torpid appearance. There are many
