A Famous Fast Run.

+ rom the Louisville Commercial.
Last night as q Commercial reporter
was lounging through the corridors OF
the Gait House listening to the friendly
chatting of the engineers, a group of vet.
Grams, seated around one Of the pillars
laughing over old stories, drew the
newsnlan toward them. did you ever
hear how Jim Hamett brought DeFuniak
from Nashville to Louisville" asked
one of the Louisville engineers. "WelI
You all know jim, I guess, or know OF
him. He can make the fastest time on
the Louisville and Nashville when he
wants to. He has been in a dozen
wrecks and got hurt in all of them. |
don't believe there's q sound bone i'm
little Jim's body, but the more bumps
and knocks he gets the faster he wants
TO run. About two years ago DeFuniak
was down ut Nashville and had import
ant business that required HIS immedi-
ate presence in Louisville. He was then
general manager of the Louisville and
Nashville and ordered the road clear
between the two cities. Then he looked
Out for an engineer to haul him through.
Hamett was just in off his run, and De
Funiak knew he was just the man. He
sent for him and said:
Mr.. Hamett, l want to get to Louis
willie as quick as possible. The roads
clear; you won't find any obstruction.
Will you take me"
Hamett's eyes sparkled, but he touch.
ed his hat and said quietly IN try.
SIR Amy man who knows jim Hamett
would know what that meant. DeFu-
MAX had his car coupled on right next
to the tender and another car behind.
Jim limpcd up into his engine Che can't
walk straight since his last wreck, and.
there was a kind of n smile hanging
around his mouth. The train pulled out
Of the depot ut Nashville Us the negro
porter was fixing The dishes in the side
board. They started out ut "a pretty
lively gait and went on increasing it.
The conductor in the back car began to
get uneasy, for he hadn't heard Jim's
instructions. Every minute the train
went faster. Houses and trees and
fences became u blurred line. The cars
jumped and rocked and rolled like mad
animals wanting to leap from their place
of confinement. The porter began to
look frightened. The train instead of
stacking increased its speed. Nobody in
DcFuniak's car could remain in their
seats without desperately clutching to
the seat in front. 1t seemed impossible
for the cars to remain on the track, they
bounded and rolled so violently. The
dishes in the sideboard rolled out, the
bed fell in the middle Of the floor, chairs
were rent from their fastenings but the
porter didn't care for that-he thought
his time had come and was praying
desperately.
DeFuniak, with hig expressionless
face, was calmly holding on To some
straps hanging from the ceiling and wav-
ing at Hamett through the glass door to
&C. on. The conductor grabbed the bell,
cord and nearly jerkel it of. He firmly
believed that ii they escaped with their
lives both he and the engineer would be
discharged AS Don as they reached the
city. Jim was sitting on mis- seat in the
engine calmly smsling and paying not

1t a recent regular meeting OF the
Baltimore Grocey's Exchange. the com
mittce on cotton seed oil as a substitute
tor lard, submitted a report, from which
!, appears that, under ordinary conditions
of supply OF the cotton seed, the oil can
bo furnished to the consumers at about
50 cents per gallon, and to the merchant
at say - cents. Standard weight is =
pounds per gallon, so at prices given, the
consumer only pays II cents per pound,
or thcreabout, for actual cash outlay. 1t
is moreover claimed, and the committee
thinks with justice, that the oil is so
much richer than lard that tw0-t thirds of
the former is equal to unit of the latter
in other words, that, if one pound Of lard
would prepare a certain dish, two thirds
Of a pound of oil would do the same work.
This being the case, argues the commit
tee, the saving to the consumer approach
es close on to 80 per cent. when using the
oil in preference to lard 1t says also,
that it should be borne in mind that the
margin lett to the merchant is about %
per cent, and concludes GAS to adapt
ability, your committee has no hesitation

Whitneyyille is quite busy village, AS large

be obtained at the proper season by the expert
hunter. l.. Leighton X son purchased nearly
one hundred and fifty deer last season. shipping
the saddles to Boston. We hi formerly sup
posed that the story that these animals were
now to be- found in any numbers in Maine was

| What has wrought such a revolution in the
relation between labor and shirts? Protection
| ihat Is the whole answer; and while any case
cltcd may be an extreme one, it aptly illustrates
the whole question Theorists tell us and in
terested parties seize upon and fondle the idea
that protection upon given article is a tax up-
on the whole country for the mere benefit of
the producers of that article. Granted there
may be instances of such workings, still it is
not true as a rule. Protection does not wash
one hand ut the expense of the other; it washes
both hands; it increases the wages of the labor
er, and it lessons to the consumer the cost of
the products of labor. This is abundantlv
shown throughout the entire history of the
country, and the finely spun periods of col
lege professors theories cannot change the rec
ord nor obterate the facts.
Among actual business men and intelligent
citizens generally, there is no such wide differ
ence Of opinion as the earnest discussion in the
papers seems to imply. Protectionists agree
that a revision of the tariff and reduction of
duties is called for; free traders will find it
very difficult indeed, when it comes to formu-
latng their theories into actual law, to steer
clear Of the protection principle. The business
interests of the country are more potent than
scientific theories. and will inevitably control
all tariff legislation. Bath Times.
