had been deeply immersed in a novel, and had
not noticed that the weather had changed and
that it was raining. oh that's nothing; we see
it every spring and fall" The speaker was a
brakeman and his remark was addressed to the
man who had never seen the like. The latter
had risen from the seat in front of mine to get
drink of water, and had halted to gaze out of the
opposite window. The brakeman stood by his
side and continued: THAT'S nothing; this is the
dividing line between rain and snow at this
season."
CHANGING from my window on the south side of
the car saw the pane notified with rain-drops
and board fence running parallel to the track
on the north side understood the strangers

gray with snowfakes and they were still
falling.
'"The dividing line-how?' stammered the man
addressed by the brakeman.
.Why, this is the point where the dividing line
between transforms and snow-storms crosses
this road" said the brakeman 'Of course 1
don't mean that every storm here is snow to the
north of us and rain to the south of u.s. but at
just this season of the year a storm is sure to be
divided within quarter Of mile of this spot
not far from Alendale."
How do you explain it," asked
Explain ita" said the brakeman. II don't
pretend to. I only know our trainmen have
noticed it for years every spring and fall in this
neigh borhood, if storm came up at the right
season. Some folks as is wiser than say that
the air from the sea impregnates the other air
as far inland as this, and warns it, while beyond
this belt of country the breath of the Gulf
stream, as you might call 1t, has no effect. But
don't know can't tell. I just know it's this
way onst year, as you can see for yourself"

7HE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL
NEW ANNOUNCEMENT.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL ia rec
ognized everywhere as the leading newspapers
of Indiana. No proper expense is spared to
maintain this undisputed excellence and to
increase the value and interest of the paper.
THE JOURNAL was never so well equipped
to serve the public. Our arrangements for
the collection of the news of the day are more
complete than ever, and we have added soma
special features which must enhance the pop
ularity of the paper.
THE JOURNAL is the only paper in In
diana that prints regularly the full reports OF
the Western Associated Press which are now
more comprehensive than ever, covering the
whole world. These dispatches are supple
mented by the work of special correspondents
at all the principal cities and towns Of the
State and of the country at large. We have
a special resident representative at Washing
ton City, who looks after the news of the ma
tional capital with vigilance, paying particular
attention to that whichs1host concerns

est and most reliable intelligence from Wash
ington will be presented in our news columns,
free from party bias, impartially, and without
restraint
Editorially THE JOURNAL is a Republic
an paper, believing in the principles and
general policy of the Republican party; but it
recognizes that the day of blind party organ
ship has passed, and it proposes to be perfectly
free to criticise and condemn, but in a spirit
and with purpose for good, having proper
regard for personal rights and regulations.
The citizen, whatever his political faith, can
be assured Of seeing in the columns of TIL
JOURNAL the fullest and fairest presentation
of the news and in its editorial columns such
comment and structures as will command his
respect if they do not meet his approval. Ii
may also be said that THE JOURNAL is
published as FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 1t
recognizes that the women and the children
are to be instructed and entertained. They
will always find in its columns matter special
ly prepared for them, while the paper will be
so conducted as to prove a welcome visitor in
the household. Tie news will be presented
in such shape as to minimize the evil, and its
editorial and local columns will be kept free
from moral faint.
