singular Confinement on a Second
Class Car.

Class Gar.
In pursuit Of their Calling railroad men
,,oouep,y meet with many curious ad-
,~aotures, and a relation Of their experience
on tbe road is often both amusing and in
arestiug. The above remarks are called
firth BY an incident which happened on
Tuesday while the passenger train OF the
narrow gusge was skimming over the
rails on its way from Grass Valley to Col
fax. saws the Tidings. Among those on
hoard was q young married couple from
M country, who arrived here from San
Jnsn Monday noon, and after taking
dinner left on the train, intending to go to
San Francisco, to which place they
had tickets. A short distance this
side Of Colfax the young wife was
noticed to act a little nervous, but as
brides usually are fidgety, the other pas
sngers paid little attention to her. She
left her seat and entered the small apart
ment at the end Of the car, her husband
following and taking up his position out
side the door, which proceeding caused q
suppressed litter from the other occupants
Of the coach, who never dreamed of what
was about to occur. In a few minutes the
train reached Colfax, and after all the
other passengers had departed, the young
couple came nut. The woman was
carefully helped from the platform by her
husband and assisted TO the nearest
hotel. where the fact was disclosed that
she had given birth TO a child before leav-
ing the car. A physician was Immediately
summoned, and in a short time the gritty
mother and her baby boy were resting
very comfortably. The incident caused
much surprise as soon as it became known,
and Conductor Loughridge has been the
subject of many jokes in consequence.
Loughridge says if he had had an inkling
Of what was going TO happen he would
have advised the young man to buy lay
over tickets, as the tickets bought by him
we're only good for that date, and circum-
stances prevented their being used.
The San Francisco Chronicle says: To
be presented with q baby on a bridal tour
puts q man in an embarrassing position,
and this awkwardness is increased when
the event occurs on a railroad train. Yet
this was the misfortune of q young man
who reached Nevada City Tuesday from
San Juan. There was evidently some mis-
calculation. and perhaps the standard
time, lately introduced, had something to
DO with the mishap.

HELPING THE EXPOSITION.

The bill loaning one million dol
lars to the Worlds Industrial and
Cotton Centennial Exposition at
New Orleans has been passed by
Congress and will doubtless be
signed by the President. The mon
ey is to be paid by the Treasurer OF
the United States in certain stipu-
lated sums on the draft OF the pres
ident and treasurer of the EXPOSE
ton, and on the assurance of the
subscription Of FIVE hundred thou
sand dollars by the stockholders.
As this latter subscribed capital is
to be increased to a million dollars,
and one hundred thousand dollars
have been subscribed by the city Of
New Orleans, the enterprise starts
with two million; one hundred thou
sand dollars. In the case OF the
Centennial Exhibition at Philadel-
phia Congress appropriated two
millions, the city of Philadelphia a
million and a half and the State OF
Pennsylvania one million dollars
more than double the sum subscrlb-
ed for New Orleans. The New Or
leans Exposition has the advantage
of general popularity at the outset,
which the Philadelphia enterprise
lacked; it will also benefit by all
proceeding experience, and this is
worth considerable money to its
management. The Atlanta Cotton
Exposition resulted in widely ex

naytiea Military Rxecatlens.


lNeW Orlo0ns llines-DemOcIotl
;lConcerning these military executions
as they are done in Hayti, one is forced
to admit that they must really be very
disagreeable to the person who is shot.
To begin with everybody is liable to
he militariiy shot. To the squad Of
soldiers on duty that day the execution
is entrusted. Often one has to be of
the squad to shoot friend, acquaint-
ance or relative. Then, also. the gov.
eminent is apt to change its mind from
day to day. and be very revengeful on
the morrow against those who on the
eve have done the shooting. The great
point, therefore, with the soldier con-
cerned in these executions is not TO
shoot straight, so rs to be able to be
afterward morally convinced that he
has missed his man. In consequence,
at the word Fire." every soldier averts
his face and pulls the trigger without
looking OF the victim. The result is
that the poor condemned fellow is halt
missed, half wounded, almost hall
killed at repeated times, and that the
firing has to be begun over tsree OF
four times until death finally ensues.

if they were paid the same as men for

"Yes, generally he said. "The fact

not of the shorthand cure.
