five inches high. whose tresses Of hair,
when she stood erect, enveloped her
entire form in a golden vail. and
trailed several inches upon the ground.
The longest fibres measured six feet,
three and half inches, Thirty inches
is the mean length for the hair of fe-
males, and three feet is considered q
remarks able length. This instance, he
said, was exceeded by two American
women, one whose hair measured seven
feet and six inches. and another, the

whose luxuriant hair was almost a.
long. and so thick that when seated on

THE OLDEST coNDUcToR

| The oldest railroad conductor in th.
| country in point of active service is sait
| to be William Coulter, who has charge O
| fast trains between New York and Phil
delphia on the Pennsylvania Railroad
His first train belonged to the old New
Jersey Transportation Company, and ran
between JERSEY City and Newark. Thai
was in 1910; in 1S47 his run was extern
ded to New Brunswick. and in 1872 he
was put in charge of through trains be
tween New York and Philadelphia
Referring to his early service Mr.. Coulter
recently remarked "Railroading in those
days was not so comfortable business
for the conductors as it is now. We were
compelled TO assist in braking, help the
baggage-master and not infrequently lead
fight against the roughs who insisted
upon riding for nothing. In place of the
splendidly upholstered saloon-cars now
i'll use. connected with the engine by a
bellrope, und with patent steam brakes,
we ran compartment cars after the En-
glish fashion of to day, with the passengers
facing each other. There were no cush-
ions nor any backs to the seats" The
veteran conductor has travelled 2,OOO. 900
miles in the line of duty, and though he
Is nearly seventy years old, he looks of
as if he were good for many years more

WANTED TO DIE.
r. Mcdowell Attempts Self-DestruetiOn
---He Still Lives.

Quite a sensation was created about
$50 Monday evening on the ferry boat
by man attempting to jump overheard
into the cruel waves. He was unknown
| to Capt. Cameron, who seized him in time
to prevent him carrying out his dreadful
design. The man gave his name as r.
Mcdowell and said he was an engineer,
residing at 224 Iowa street, Davenport,
and domestic troubles was the cause of
his desire to end his existence Arriving
at this side the would-be suicide drew a
long butcher knife, and again attempted
to end his earthly career, when Captain
Cameron induced him by forcible persua-
sion TO desist. The police were telephoned
for, and in the mean time Mcdowell
made third attempt on his life, which
was also unsuccessful The switch engine
was coming along, when the desperate
man tried to throw himself in front of it,
but was prevented by Mr.. Henry Schill
and Capt Cameron, who held him back.
Mr.. Schell then started him for the Ar
mory. AT 1indalfs livery stable Mellow
ell made an effort to escape, but did not
succeed BY this time the police arrived
in answer to the call, and Mr. Meean, one
of the officers, took him back to Daven-
port and turned him over to the police of
that city.

THE RAILWAY WAR

Peoria Freeman. The cut made by ths
c., r. l. & p. of So to Kansas CITY will
undoubtedly bring the other roads down.
The c., r. /. & F. officials declare that
they intend to bring on war and Thai
they will make lower rates The c., r.
L. q z. people say that the other roads
have been cutting to all points for the
last six months. The only cut they have
made has been to Chicago, and that they
were forced to do. But now they intend
to go in for blood, and make it hot. As
stated in these columns before, people
who understand the ropes haYe been en-
Joying low rates tor some time, and the
scalpers have reaped harvest For the
last six months it has been so that if you
couldn't find a scalper in his Office you
would find him in the Office of a general
ticket agent, and vice versa They surely
did not herd together for the pure love
they bore each other. Let the war 90 on,
he people will enjoy it.
