THE Era (London) tells that at garden
party given by the Governor of New Zss-
land in Christ Church, Miss Genevieve
Ward was among the guests, and the wife of
an AIchdeacon, noted for her dislike to the
theatrical profession, was also present. The
latter dame was not acquainted with Lady
Jervois, the Governors wife, but, at the
conclusion that she saw her hostess in the
striking-loo king lady who bore herself so
regally. Without waiting for introduction
she fastened to present herself, and brief
conversation eDsued; ard the Arch
deaconess turning to friend who had
watched the interview in surprise, ex-
claimed: What charming woman Lady
Jervois is,'' What" said her friend,
"Why. that's Miss Genevieve Ward, the
actress Paralyzed with horror, Mrs.
Archdeacon gasped staggered, and fed, and
the incident will be a popular story in
Christ Church for many day.

RAILWAY ROUNDUP.
srIs Mite. .rNew Road In So

CHICAGO, December 30.-In its is
sue for tomorrow the Railway Age
will say "When the year of 1885
opened, very little was expected of II
in the way of railroad building: but
the record for the year, as we now
present il, shows that this assumtion
was far from beng correct, and thai
while the extent of new mileage
added Is less than in 1884, and very
much less than in several previous
years, II is by no means insignificant.
We find that the total length of the
main line, not including second track
siding or renewals, laid in the United
States during 1885 was 3ll3 miles
This is about 700 miles less than tn,
new mileage of 1884, aud il is less
than in any year since 1873, when the
total was but 2,6s7 miles, while in
1875 the record of new construction
reacheda total of only LII miles.
The work done has been largely on
branches and extensions of moderate |
length, aud has not II clnded any very
lines such rs in previous years have |
helped greatly to swell the total. In |
New England and tine east almost no
new track has been added Tn, |
principal activity has been in tho
states and in the belt be-
tween the Missouri river aud the Pa.
life states and territories.
The long, st extension of the year
has been that of the Fremont, Elk
iorn and Missouri valley line of the
Chicago aud Northwestern system
rom Valentine, Nebraska, west and
iorth l9l miles TO Buffalo Gap, Da
iota, from whence IL will be pushed
II the spring to the Black Hills.
Another very important work has
,een done in California by the extern
ion of the California Southern road

With the Atlantic and Pacific, thus
irving continuous line and, practi.
