Under the system unanimously adopted at the recent convention of railroad mana gers at St. Louis, there are to be five stand ards of time, to be known as the Provin- cial, the Eastern, the Central, the Moun- tain, and the Pacific, and between each of these standards there is to be difference of exactly one hour. When it is one o'clock on the Provincial division it will be twelve o'clock in the Eastern division, eleven o'clock in the Central division, ten o'clock on the Mountain section and nine o'clock on the Pacific section. In this way every traveller and railroad employee who has once obtained the standard time, and who knows the division over which he is pass ing can readily obtain the true time for that section. The Provincial standard will govern roads in the Dominion of Can ada east of Quebec, and the other British provinces; the Eastern standard, roads in the New England and Middle states, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina the Central standard roads ii the remainder of the Southern Atlantic and Gulf states, and the Western states to 8 line drawn from north and south, west of the Missouri river; the Mountain standard, roads ending at Mis- sonia, Montana, Salt Lake and Frisco, Utah, and Fort Yuma, Arizona; the Pa cifc standard, all roads west of the i'm aginary line on which these points are To- cated, and all other territory west of the Rocky Mountains. --... .-

 Officers Woodward and Fay visited Stafford Springs on Wednesday armed with search warrant empowering them to search the fish market kept by Albert Smith. After arriving in the village they left their team and proceeded on foot, deeming their approach would be least no ticed in that way. When within consid- erable distance of their goal they were rec ognized by an express driver, who turned his team and ran it for Smiths place. When the officers reached the spot, some five minutes later, the bottles, jugs and demijohns were all empty, shoppers re. moved, and their mouths wet from the fluids which had been so recently spilled from them. However, Smith was arrested on reputation, tried before Justice Har- wood, who fined him $30 and costs, from which he appealed.
 It is expected the sound of the Metho- dist church bell will be added to those ot the other creeds soon. For several days MT. John Pitney has been at work upon it, endeavoring to remove the fracture which has existed since the glorifcation which commemorated the fall of Rich mond. It was expected it might be sawed out, but the metal proved too hard for the best saw which could be brought to bear upon it. It is now being reduced by drill. ing and chipping The fracture extends upward from the rim about two-thirds the height of the bell. The remedy may prove intellectual though it commonly is effectual.

The pastor of Methodist church in Yonkers recently received lady 100 years old upon probation, which leads The Kingston Freeman to remark that if she conducts herself with propriety for the next six months, overcomes her natural friskiness, gives up dancing, flirting, paint ing, powdering, bangs, and low-necked dresses, eschews, false hair, false teeth and pads, is prudent in the display of her pretty feet at muddy crossings, is not over vain of her personal attractions and accom- plishments and puts on the quiet and dig nifed demeanor due to her position, she may expect to be received into the con- plete relation of church member.

 These Watches are all OPEN FACE. The bezel, into which extra strong crystal is fitted with especial ly prepared waterproof cement, is attached to the case by screwlng it thereon and thus forms afr tight junction with the body of the case, which is proof against dust and moisture.
 To railroad men, travellers, miners, lumber-men and others who are almost constantly exposed and who have to make frequent reference to the watch, these qualities are of the utmost importance.

SHOPPERS WITHOUT MoNEY.-Sa1d a we'll known dry goods salesman wish to goodness something could be done to put stop to the shoppers-who-never-buy nuisance. These people are very well known in the stores, and they don't give as much trouble as formerly, but still they take up valuable time, and good part ot our energies is directed to the effort to Cir cumvent them. The moment an "old timer" comes up to the counter she is in stantly recognized by some one of the sales men, and the warning signal, tap on the counter, is passed along the line. Then we have some fun. The 'old timer'' will call for say certain shade of yellow. She is told it is not in stock. "Oh, what 8 pity l" exclaims she 'sthat is just what I wanted. If you had it I would buy six teen yards of it." Then it is the next mans turn. He comes up. accordingly, and tells the first salesman that he is mis- taken, that there is still bolt of twenty wards of that identical stuff in the store. He brings it forward and lays it down. You would think the shopper who never buys would be disconcerted at this turn of affairs Not bit of it. She says, smil- ingly: "Oh, that is just what I want.
 Lay it aside for me, and I will see my dressmaker and find out just how many yards she needs, and tomorrow I'll come back and buy it" Then she departs with simper, but she never comes back. We amuse ourselves in this way, but it's ter rible nuisance all the same. We have no such trials in England, and the reason is that there about seven-eighths of the pop ulation are housekeepers who have no time to loiter around the shops, whereas in this country fully two-thirds of the people live in boarding houses and time hangs heavy on their hands, and they kill it by worry. ing salespeople ts.f5ss M s- .
