E. b. Stahlman, third vice-president of the
Louisville & Nashville road, in his argument be-
fore the interstate commerce committee which
was very able one in many respects, said:
"The impression that rebates are given TO build
up one shipper to the injury of another is an en-
tirely erroneous one. The rebates, when given
at ALL are frequently due to desire of one rail
road company to secure shipments against

tons which have been favored with rebates. but
the committee will find all fair-minded railway
managers opposed to such abominable prac-
tices and while on that point I desire to
emphatically declare myself for the interest

ayers OF this country, who are, as a rule, fair
minded and inclined to do what is right will
most heartily approve of the enactment of such

drawbacks are given, they should be open TO all
shippers under like circumstances.

Now in truth is no family safe. The Morosini
ran off with her pas coachman, and her example
proved so contagious that scores of other maid
ems as giddy have done likewise since then.
Other maidens have run off with men in all
grades of life, and one has at last secretly
welded one more than twice her age. The cpl
demic has not ceased spreading and the last to
startle her little world is Miss Clara Mason, of
Oyster Bay, L. ]. She is the daughter of par
ents worth perhaps half million, and, as a mat
ter of course, they must be thoroughly aristo-
cratic. She did not elope with her pas driver,
for it may be that he did not have one, but she
did the next best thing, and ran off with and
married William Underhill, a stalwart clam
digger. William is some four years her Junior
and is likewise somewhat of vocalist, being
tenor singer in the village choir How he wooed
and won her no one cot member of choir will
ever understand. But he did it 80 successfully
that the lady finally sent all her apparel to the
humble house of her wooer, and, in imitation of
more noted party, married him there instead
of at the residence of her parents, as has been
the custom in the best circles up to this week.
The mother of Mrs. Underhll does not recognize
the marriage. though, perhaps that is not neces-
sary. The pair are married, and propose to
make the best of it. and the best thing for the
'scandalized' parents to do is to relent and take
them in out of the cold world. It is evident that
every man has chance to rise in this country,
and we say to one and all that. while all men
cannot be drivers of family carriages, there is no
reason why they should despair We now have
an instance wherein an honest but industrious
clam-digeer has done pretty we'll, considering
the opportunity he had.
