AN ODD FELLOW Who SOLD THE Sc.
CRET.-Kalkaska, Michigan, May 18th.
Last September members of the I. o. o.
F. lodge in Fife Lake were astonished to
find that a man name Levanway had hold
of the secret work of the order. How,
when or where was a mystery. He had
not been out Of town and some one who
was posted had posted him. Times
passed on, and no one seemed more anx-
ious to expose the person that had vio-
lated his obligation than Stephen Green.
April of this year solved the problem.
On election day Levanway was challenged
as to his being voter by Horace Green,
a brother of Stephen Green. Levanway,
being Of quick temper, got mad and told
him that he belonged to pretty family,
as his brother had given him the secret
word of the Odd Fellows for the paltry
sum of $35, and he had the documents to
prove it. They were produced and found
to be genuine, stamped with the seal Of
the lodge. Green has held the Office Of
N G. R s in the subordinate lodge and
was charter member of the encampment
at Fife Lake.

1t seems little hard for locomotive
engineers on Texas railroads to regulate
their noise to the requirements of every
town they pass through. The municipal
authorities there claim the right to die.
tate whether tumultuous noise or quiet
shall prevail while trains are pssing
through the town limits. Accordingly
the matter is regulated with regard to
the lasts of different towns. One town
called for the ringing of the locomotive
bell all the time the train was passing,
and the next town did better by calling
for the whistle and bell to be used while
passing its borders, a rule which, of
course, was duly observed. Others again
are of retiring disposition and do not
want the whole world to know when
each train is passing through the city, so
they will have no whistling or bell ring
ing within their limits. AS the city au.
thorities are not limited to changing
their orders they frequently change from
noise to silence for few days and vice
versa. In order that the varying wants
of the city fathers may be duly respected
the railroad managers of Texas are con-
sidering the propriety of issuing daily
bulletins as to the requirements of the
various towns for noise and silence.

In a Peck of Trouble.

Passenger conductors on two of the Indian
apolis roads are in a dilemma. Their orders are
to give rebate ticket to every party which pays
cash fare. A few days since party of fifteen
got on at a way station and rode five miles to
another station. The conductor found it impos-
sible in eight minutes to write out fifteen rebate
tickets, collected their fares and reported the
case, and was laid off ten days, by order of the
general passenger agent, for not giving rebate
tickets. Learning this fact another conductor
resolved to hold his train at any station until
every passenger which boarded his train pur
chased ticket. A day or two after forming this
resolution, at junction point he waited on a
connection which was ten minutes late, and
had several passengers, until it arrived On
reaching the station none of the party, which
numbered sixteen, had tickets. He ordered
them to purchase their tickets and he would
hold the train. On arriving at the terminus of
the road he was questioned by the superin
tendent why he was late, aud explained the stu
alton as above The superintendent laid him
off for two weeks for holding the train at the
junction point so long time Now the con
ductors on the road are puzzling their brains to
know how to overcome the trouble attached to
giving rebate tickets.

Cheap Coal and Low Rates.

There is not city in the Union that has a
better prospect for cheap coal than has Indian
apolis. Four roads are now bringing coal onto
the market and fifth road is building to mines
in the western part of the State. Block coal is
now selling on the market at $3.50 per
ton and the indianapolis & Vincennes people
say that they can place equally as good coal on
this market at s. % per ton. The Terre Haute
& indianapolis road, however, will lead in this
matter so far as western coal is concerned, as
they have the largest field to draw from and the
are now hauling anthracite Goals to this market
at rate which gives them very small margin,
and Pittsburg GOALS now brought here at a rate
that is lower than the river and rail rate; and
with Indianapolis roads reaching out in all di-
rections and carrying all classes of freights at as
low rates as those of roads at other competing
points, this city is certainly one of the
most favorable in the country for manufacturers

the eloquence displayed by the orator from the

he presented his logical views, in which the ap-
preparation should be made for the maintenance

"reminiscences of the recent campaign discuss
ing, among other things, the effect of the Pro
hibition canvass All four were Republicans
and temperance men from principle. In each of
the four districts they represented tho Prohibi-
ton party had run candidate of its own for Con-
gress. The resultwas thatin two of the districts
the Republican candidates failed of reelection.
One of the defeated ones said in commenting upon
the result Il have been a temperance man all
my life; have spokenin probably every church and
school-house in my district on the subject and
have given probably as mnch or more money in
aid of the cause as any man in my district, yet
the Prohibitionists ran a candidate against me-
and secured my defeat by drawing from the Re
publican vote They made it their boast through
out the campaign that while they did not expect
to elect a man of their candidates, they hoped to
split up the Republican party so as to insure its
defeat Here we have the spectacle of a lot of
men deliberately working to defeat the very
party that has most befriended their cause, and

valuable Railroad Properties.

Boston has eight railroads, namely, the East
ern, with 285 miles operated; Boston 6 Maine,
204; Boston & Lowell, $50; Fitchburg 1879; Bos
ton & Albany, 1884; New York & New England
378 Tor 444 including the Norwich & Worcester,
managed by it,; Boston & Providence, IS; Old
Colony, 46S. Since the close of the fiscal year,
Sept. 3d. the Boston g. Maine has leased the
Eastern; the joint mileage is $50. No other
eight lines in the country diverging from single
city have greater earning capacity The Boston
& Maine, Boston & Albany and Boston & Provi-
dence are per cent. stocks, the Old Colony
per cent, the Boston & Lowell and the Fitch
burg 81 per cent, and that the Eastern and the
New York & New England pay no dividends is
due rather to unwise policies and insane am
billions in the past than to the present business
situation.
The last year has usually been reckoned a
very bad one for American railways. In broad
sense this judgment is warranted. But the Bos-
ton roads have nearly held their own. Brad
street says the best key to railways capacity
for earning interest and dividends is to be found
in its receipts for traffic per mile operated. Dis
trbutiug the transportation earnings of the
above named roads on this basis, the following

The Situation in a Nut Shell.

That the coming year new union depot Will
be built at at indianapolis is g settled fact. To
be sure for the last five years the talk each year
has been that the dilapidated old Union Depot is
to give place to a better one, and it has ended in
talk; but this time different men have the mat
ter in hand. James McCrea4 v T. Malott and
William R. MeKeen are not men who put their
hands to the pillow and look back. These three
are empowered to get State and city legislation,
so far as needed, through, to issue and place the
bonds to raise money needed to build the union
depot, and construct the system of tracks
needed. Location is now the only ques-
ton, and if any business man South
Meridian street has conceived the idea that the
Union Railway Company will proceed to spend
million dollars or more to erect union depot on
the patch of ground occupied by the present
structure they are badly off, For it is fully
settled that unless Meridian street can be
bridged with a substantial handsome structure,
twenty-five feet in width and certain streets
and parts of streets closed as public thorough
fares. The depot will be built on grounds
where there is ample room for building and
tracks, and where there will be no trouble to
close one or streets or to bridge them
either. The journal has this information from
parties who are in a position to know
what is being done in this enterprise and the
parties who are busying themselves in advising
business men on Meridian street to make no
concessions nor favor the bridging of Meridian
street or the closing of Illinois street. will wake
up some fine morning in March, 1855, and learn
that the new union depot is to be built some
distance from the present site, and Meridian
street property will be worth 90 per cent. less
than it would be were the new depot erected
the two squares between Meridian and Tennes-
see streets. Indianapolis, as city, is as much
interested in the erection of union
depot, commodious enough, convenient and
of handsome style Of architecture as is the
Union Railway Company; and it behooves every
business man to interest himself in getting
also in seeing that as few obstacles are thrown in
the way of proceeding with the work as possible.
