What j. w. Garrett Accomplished.

The late President Garrett, prior to his last
election to the presidency of the Baltimore g.
Ohio road, in addressing the stockholders, said:
when l became your executive, in 1858, the
length of the roads under your control was but514

One Of the Best Couplers Exhibited.

The Brown automatic coupler, which Colonel
Horace Scott represented at the test before the
Railroad Commissioners of Massachusetts, is be-
ing favoraby spoken of by those who witnessed
the tests and is pronounced one of the simplest
yet most effective exhibited. This coupler uses
the pin and link, the automatic action being
gained by introducing a pivotal wing, which
forms rest for the pin until swung around up
an incline by the entering link, when the pin
drops and makes the coupling. When the pin
and link are withdrawn in uncoupiing the wing
swings back down the incline of its own gravity
and rests under the pin, which cannot be with
drawn, thus providing against its loss, By the
introduction of a roller across the center of the
drawhead, which supports and guides the link
and braces the pin, cars varying in height from
five to eight inches can be readily coupled auto
matically. The tests to-day We're very satisfac-
tory, the coupling being effected promptly every
time, and the yard men who witnessed its oper-
alton, and who are especially competent to judge
of its practical efficiency, were outspoken in its
praise. 1t is claimed that the appliance can be
added to the common draw bar for less than %
cents, and any brakeman can quickly learn to
Onerate it.

Bees Steal Jelly.

HUNTINGToN. Pa, Oct. 10.-NIrs. George w.
Swoope, of this city, placed twenty-one tumblers
of ounce jelly yesterday on porch, and covered
them with newspaper About noon she went
to examine the jelly, when she found all but one
tumbler surrounned by swarm of bees and it
impossible for her to get near the jelly with
out running the risk of getting stung. She left
them, but on returning in the evening, she was
surprised to find twenty glasses empty of the
jelly, as nicely as if they had been washed and
dried The bees had stolen all the Jelly except
one tumblerful, and why they didn't take that is
a mystery.
