hardly reach any man nowadays, as for u
halt dollar and fifty cent piece we can sell you
an excellent Unlaundried Shirt, as good as
many that are sold for dollar. This is not a

THE STANDARD GAUGE.
Why Nearly All the Railroads Are
4 Feet 81 Inches.

Why Nearly All the Railroads Are
Feet So Inches.
The question has been frequently asked
"Why was the standard gauge OF rail-
roads fixed at four feet eight and half
inches? What was the scientific reason
for adopting the fraction OF an inch9'
Mr.. PeltOn, Vice President of the New
York, Lake Erie and Western railroad, in
a recent interview, said that there was 70
scientific or other reason for it except
precedent and custom. In fact, all the sci-
entitic or practical considerations that can
enter into tue question are against it.
When Stephenson built his first loco
motive, he for some reason best
known TO himself built to the
gauge of the old tramways-
for vehicles drawR by horses-iu England,
which was feet SL inches. That be-
came what was known as the narrow
gauge in England, aud was naturally fol-
lowed in this country TO very great ex-
tent. Some of our roads have n gauge Of
feet 81 inches, others feet so inches,
and still others feet 8 inches. In Eng
land they have 6 foot "brOad" gauge,
and at one time, for very little while,
tried foot gauge. The Erie road. built
originally by English capital, was at
first 8 foot gauge, but in 1876 the
changing Of it to 4 feet SX inches
was begun, and now it is all OF that
gauge, The Pennsylvania Railroad Com.
pany uses gauge OF feet . inches, be-
cause that is a compromise gsuge between
the former gauge OF feel 81 inches on its
eastern lines and feet 10 inches on its
roads west Of Plttsburg. IL would be
we'll if the feet So Inches gauge could
be widened little, TO enable greater
width OF the fire boxes Of locomotives,
and consequently more powerful engines,
such as IL would be desirable TO employ.

THE COULsTON SCANDAL.
Messaros's Friends Made Happy by Impo
tant Newly Discovered Evidence.

Messaros's Friends Made Happy by Impor-
tant Newly-Discovered Evidence.
PHI iladelphia Times.
The counsel and friends of Rev. Waldo Mes
were in a happy mood yesterday over
some discoveries bearing directly on the alleged
conspiracy that eliminated at the house of Chas.
w. Coulston on last Monday. Three persons
reported to j. II. Heverin, attorney for Mr. Mes
saros, that they had been notified by Mrs Coul-
ston of an impending criminal assault, and were
invited to be present to witness the act. One of
the parties. Jacob L. Lancaster, furniture-deal
er at 1905 Race street, was interviewed By
Times reporter at his home, 2409 Master street,
last night. He prefaced his statement by say
ing that he had no i'll will for either Mr. or Mrs.
Coulston, but believed the truth ought to be
known regarding the scandalous affair. Then
he proceeded as follows:
"Early on Friday morning. June IS, three
days before the alleged assault, Mrs. Corlston
called at my house with note in her hand, and
after handing me the note asked me to call at her
house my way down to my business called
and was told by her that Mr. Messaros had pre-
viousy made improper advances to her. and
that she was expecting him at half-past o'clock
and was afraid of him. / asked her where her
husband was and she said he was upstairs.
then reminded her that it was his place to de-
fehd her. She however, appealed to me to re-
main and called Mr.. Coulston down. He was
told in my presence that had been informed OF
what had occurred and invited to stay until
Messaros came. 1t was then suggested by Mrs.
Coulston that Mr.. Coulston and myself go up
stairs and remain there until wanted.
81 waited until after half-past 9 o'clock, when
Mrs. Coulsron came up stairs and said need not
stay any longer, as Messaros had not come ac-
cording to appointment Before, l left Mrs.
Coulston said she would 60 to the front door
and see if the coast was clear. She did So look
ing ND and down the street, and reported that
all was right l then took my departure and
thought nothing more of the matter until the
Sunday night following. when Coulston ap-
preached me as ] was leaving the church in the
vestibule, and asked me to come to his house at
10 o'clock on Monday morning replied could
not do as requested.
He insisted. saying that Elder Norman was
to be there, and he wanted me by all means.
didn't 60, and was astonished when heard dur
ing the day of the scene that had been enacted
there
Mr. Lancaster is a well-known business man,
a member of Mr.. Messaros's church, and is as
sistant superintendent of its Sunday school,
where he has worked side by side with Mrs.
Coulston. He says he regards Mrs Coulston as
a woman of remarkable ability, and that he re-
erets the necessity of testifying against her.
Two others, whose names have not been men
toned in connection with thes scandal are said
to have made similar statements to that OF Mr..
Lancaster. They claim to have been invited to
the Coulston residence on both Friday and Mon
day to witness a scene

ask the knights and all labor organizations to
accept his ideas and work for their realization.

Is Justice GRAY to Marry7

Washington Special TO New York Graphic.
Justice Gray, of the United States Supreme
Court, is bachelor, ffty-two years old. He is
the mightest man in station OF all the officials in
Washington. During the last week he has taken
permit from the building department to erect
. 800 900 residence The Justice smiles blandly
when he is accused OF matrimonial intentions,
bat says neither yea nor nay The young lady
who has been selected for him by the gossip is
the beautiful Miss Van Vechten, who spent the
winter at the White House as the guest of Miss
Cleveland, and was reported all winter to be en-
gagged to the President.
Miss Van Vechten was the belle of the winter
the hancsomest woman seen in all the gay
throng that gathered here. She is not so fresh
and pretty as the Presidents bride. being older
by ten or twelve years. tail. stately and impress
eive As she stood beside the President at the
White House reception last winter, everybody
remarked upon her abilities to perform the du-
tiss devolving upon the first lady of the land, and
hoped he would marry her. She went to Europe
rs soon as his engagement to Miss Folsom was
announced, and is there still.
Nobody has the right to say that Justice Gray
will marry her, but last winter she was the only
lady to whom he paid any attention, and he al
ways monopolized her when he could.
