COLLECTING A DIVIDEND. In the carly
days of railroading IN Missouri II six foot
stranger with bad look in his eye one
| day entered station on the Blank and
Dash road, pulled ont ten shares Of stock
in the company and inquired OF the station
master il there were any dividends on the
stock
"Neyer heard of any, was the reply
Didn't anybody ever try 70 collect div
idends2'
'If they did they didn't get anything.
This stock ought to pay ten per cent,
continued .a the = stap You'd bs" s"'gO0 1Fyac

I've nothing TO do with it. iou must
go to st Louis.
"Too fur away I'm going TO collect
here and save time Pilgrim count out
my diyy!"
The above peroration was accompanied by
the sight OF six.shooter and an express
sion which meant business, and the agent
did Mt consume three minutes in counting
out the money which the stranger took
and walked out with the remark that he
never invested in any stock paying less
than ten per cent and didn't believe IN
cumulative dividends. This was the only
dividend paid by that road for thirteen
years, and the agent on a salary Of $40 per
month had TO stand that.

From daylight Of Wednesday, December

mud, steadily toward the South. crossing
the Nottaway river on pcntoons at p. m,
and hating At midnight for such rest as
wo could find on the cold. damp soil Of a

straight toward the South, through the
Sussex Ceurt. house at ten a. m, hating
at dusk near the Weldon aud Petersburg
railway, about five miles from the North

We soon learned that this was to be a

were what are known as 'T' rails, each
being securely fastened to its neighbor at
either end by stout bar OF iron or steel
which had been forced into the groove of

unbroken rails for its whole length
"No use tryin' to tear up them rails

things are all spliced together at the j'ints
and the only way to get them of IL to pry
up the whole thing, rails, ties and all, and
then split the ties off from the rails when
you've got her upside down, "
SO, with fence rails for levers, the men
fell to work, prying and heave-l-ho-ing
until one side Of the road, ties, track and
all, pulled and wrenched by thousands of
strong arms began to loosen and move,
and was raised gradually higher and high
er. Forced at last to a perpendicular, 1t
was pushed over and laid upside down,
with mighty cheer
Once the thing was started, it was easy
enough to roll miles and miles of it over
without break. And SO brigade after

SEVENTY FOURTH DAY.

~ ~ lpC-
House met mt 10 a IN, Hon. Godfrey Rhodes in
the chair. Prayer by Hon. Mr.. Pilipo, reading
of minutes of previous meeting by Secretary,
which, after some alteration were approved.
Hon. Mr.. Aholo, from II select com nittee, re-
ported on a bill relating to the claims of h.
waiians to certain lands, favoring the passage
of the bill. with certain amendments, to engross-
ment. Report of committee approved. Bill to
be read a third time on Friday.
Hon. Mr.. Aholo presented "A JOINT resolution,
relating to the claims of Mrs. AntoinetteS Swan,
for a share in certain Lands situated near the
Fish NJ lrket, and authorizing the payment to her
of the sum of 81. 1871 in liquidation of said
claim.
On motion of Hon. Mr.. Widemtnn, the rules
were suspended and the bill read for the second
time by title.
At the conclusion of the second reading Hon.
Mr.. Widemanu moved that the bill be referred
to a Select Committe who would investigate and
report to the next Legislature.
Hon. Mr.. Nakaleka moved to amend by Sc
lectlng the committee entirely from the Mobiles
as they would be the cues most likely to be pre-
sent at the next Session.
Hon. Mr.. Aholo did not doubt that the reso-
luton was presented at rather a late dav. but
yet it should not be N ide light of or passed over
slightlugly by the Assembly. He had seen docu-
ments, and heard statements which showed
there was business in the claim. Other heir to
the estate of which this land was originally a
part, have released their claims, this lady had
not, and she was entitled to one-Sixth of the
est tie. He thought that Hon. Mr.. Wldemann =
motion was another way of indefinitely post
pOning.
Hon. Mr.. Widemann disclaimed any such in
%tention, but judged that the time of the present
session was too short to allow of obtaining the
necessary information.
His Excellency Edward Preston did not think
the matter had been properly presented.
Thought that the introducer of the resolution
should leave the matter in the hands of the Gov
eminent to investigate. He could not agree to
the passage of the resolution without further in
yestigation.
Hon, Mr.. Klpena stated at the asst session of
tn Legislature Hons. Rhodes, Preston, and
himself were a committee having the subject
under consideration. The speaker attempted
to bring the matter to ke r collection of Hon.
Mr.. Rhodes and His Excellency Presto but
failed, they disclaiming all knowledge of any
such service.
Hon. Mr.. Nawahi thought that the House
were fully as we'll acquainted with the merits Of
this case as that of another of like nature.
