Word comes from Australia to the Lon
don Engineer that 'severe economy is
the order of the day on Australian rail-
roads. The drought made the wheat crop
asst winter so small that not more than
$1,000 tons can be exported, against 300,-
600 last year, and has also greatly reduced
the number of cattle that can be sent to
market. Tnis has greatly reduced the
traffic and earnings of railroads, and the
train service has been reduced as much as
possible. In the railway shops the men
are put on three-fOurths time, and many
have been given lower positions for the
time

War Horse.


War Horse.
In the MORNING NEWS of yesterday |

tory OF spot" Gen. Kilpatrick's "war
horse" with the one exception that
''Spot' commenced his career as "war
horse" with the Georgia Hussars instead
of the Efiingham Hussars. AS some
other particulars in connection with the
gallant little stallion may prove interest
ing give them as follows:
In 1861 a Mr.. Thompson, of Valdosta,
Ca. brought 'sSpOt" 20 our camp (Com-
pany A, Fifth Georgia Cavalry and
offered him for sale. AT that early stage
Of the war staIlf0ns were objected to in
cavalry on account OF their natural vici-
BUSINESS. For that reason Mr.. Thompson
failed TO find a purchaser in eur com
mRnd. In few days, however, the beau
tiful little animal was sold to Quarter
master Thomas Burke. After keeping
him for few months Maj. Burke sold him
to Second Lieut.. EFastus Hill Company
A, Fifth Georgia Cavalry } the horse prov
ing little too mettiesome for ths MAJOR.
Lieut.. Hill, sometime afterwards,
when about TO leave his COM
pany, on account OF ill-health,
sold him to Sergt. Charles n. Starr,
OF McAHister's battalion, then stationed
on the ''Neck," Bryan county, Ga. Sergt.

his escape In hfs-shirt and drawers. The

IN THE RAILWAY WORLD.
Items Gathered Along the Track
and Crossties.

Mr.. Joseph J.. Richardson has been pro-
NOTED TO the position OF assistant to the
district superintendent OF the Pullman
Palace Car Company here.
A New Orleans club OF business men
who reside at country seats outside of the
city have had constructed a luxurinus
car, the "BeauVoir," named after the
home OF Jefferson Davis. which win run
morning and evening between the city
andtheir places of residence. The car,
which was built by the Jackson g. Sharp
Car Company at Wilmington, Del, is
very handsomely finished and fitted up
with conveDiences for dining, reading,
writing and resting. The use TO which
the car will be put is a somewhat novel
one, itbeing inreality club house on
wheels, but the idea seems to be an ex-
cellent one, and will very-likely be fol-
lowed by other.similar organizations.

ence. At some other time we may be
prepared to give his address in full.

A FEW POINTERS FOR THE LADIES.
"A sure way to catch cold is to enter
and depart from houses which are per-
haps at summer heat inside while the
air outside is at zero with the same
amount of wraps. They will not lay off
their tight fitting outer garments while
in the hot room which makes
them exceedingly warm at the
time and chills them when they
leave the house. Much injury to health
would be avoided by abolishing this
bad fashion. Another habit which is
very detrimental TO the comfort and
ease of the public is to occupy the seats
at places Of public entertainments with
the high and large hats which fas hio n
prescribe for the ladies this season.
Mrs. President Cleveland sets a com :
mendable precept to the ladies of the
National capital by removing her DO n
net when entering such a place and
they follow her ex ample almost uniyer-
sally. Thus it will not be necessary to
twist off your neck in attempting to
look around a big hat.
John F. Weaver, a gentleman who
was born and raised near Farmers
Mills, in Penns Valley, and who had
served in the late war as a private In

ious'y wounded at Fredericksburg was
instantly killed on the railroad, near
Reconverte, Greenbriar Co., West Va,

man was in the employ Of the G. & o.
r. R. Co.. inspecting trains. He was
attending to his duty on the day named,
and was standing on the track. grease
cup in hand. inspecting passing
freight train. So intent was he on this
duty that he failed to notice locOmo-
tive which was making a "fy switch"
and moving back ward around a slight
curve on the same track on which he
stood 1t is said that no warning was
given ny the engineer. He was struck
by the tender and carried some $50 feet,
when he fell on the track and the Ell.
CINE and tender passed over him. He
was fearfully mangled and death must
have been instantaneous.
