4 Yonnp Woman,s Idea.

Another Brooklynite with an idea is
Young woman who lives in Smith street. She
is a. bright, sensible, industrious and nervy.
About two years and half ago her father
died He was an Englishman and had been
in tho butchers line in u small way. a few
hungry creditors gobbled the little shop and
carried part OF the furniture out OF the house.
Then the landlord turned out 10 be even
more wofsh than the creditors. He took
the rest Of the furniture for trifiing arrears
in rent and actually SGT the young woman
and her 10-year-Old sister into the street.
Their mother had died several years before.
Not solitary person was there IN Brooklyn
or New York TO whom the young woman
could look for aid She had no accomplish
ments and she was not strong enough
physically TO perform much hard manual
labor But she didn't sit down think 1t over.
As there was no channel open 10 her she pro
ceeded 10 create one
Everybody has seen the hams that swing
from hooks in front of meat shops. They are
rs typical of the butchers trade as three gllded
balls are Of the pawnbroker's or striped pole
of the BARRIERS. They look like the genuine,
sugar-cured articles, but they are mere pre-
Smith street young woman had made several
of these for her fathers shop 1t occurred TO
her that she might sell some elsewhere. SO
she made couple Of the dummy hams. Good
luck came at once. She sold the pair, and got
orders for more. 1t took good deal Of hard
work, but she got kind Of dummy ham trade
started Now two women besides herself are
busy every day in the little back room Of the
Smith street house sewing bags OF yellow
cloth which are exact counterparts OF those
used for genuine hams In the same room the
energetic young woman's little sister and am
other little girl stuff the bags With sawdust
from a bin in the corner, tie up the tops and
paste labels on the bags just like those on real
hams, giving the false presentment very
plausible exterior From being set into the
street without a penny in her pocket two and
a half years ago, the butchers daughter now
has a comfortable home and a growing bank
account. and she finds the demand for dummy
hams 50 large that she and her assistants have
their hands full all the time. -Brooklyn IN.

A SCHOOL ON WHEELS.
Details Of . Scheme for Instructine
Freight Trainmen About Air Brakes.

Ouite recently the Union Pacific company
odopted Westinghouse air brakes, and have
eouipped all their freight cars with them, but
by reason of q lack Of knowledge on the part
OF trainmen in knowing how to operate the
scheme correctly, annoyance and bad mis-
toles have been experienced. To remedy
this, and bring railrosding up to scientific
principles. the school car has become u neces-
sity.
They took the old directors car, NO. Il, re-
paired it thoroughly for the purpose lntended'
and will soon be ready TO send 1t over tne
road. T. A. Hedendahl, an experienced ana
expert engineer, will be in charge OF the car
as superintendent and direct the instruction.
The arrangement from which the trarnmen
will take their lessons in the use OF the ar
brake is very fine and comparatively simple
At the front end of the car stands frame,
on which rests thirty Az chambers and LOW
feet of pipe, just what would be required for
an ordinary train Of cars, and, in addition
there arc also the wheels and gearing OF
freight car, with the air brake attachment
mounted on another frame about the center
of the car. In the opposite end Is stationed
very attractive engine, of about six horse
power capacity, while between this and the
frames spoken of above liz planted a steam
chest, on which are the gauges valves and
apparatus by which tho engineer works the
brakes
With the steam engine and pumps main
reservoir in which compressed air is stored;
engineers brake valve, which regulates the
flow of air from the reservoir into the brake
pipe for releasing the brakes; main brake pipe
and auxiliary reservoir brake cylinder; triple
valve which connects the brake pipe with the
auxiliary reservoir and the latter to the brake
cylinder; the car model completely equipped
and the full complement for a complete train,
YOU would imagine that the car is well filled,
out such is not the case.
The remaining space, which IS nicely car
peted, gives ample room for twenty men at
time to watch the operations Of the machin-
cry and listen 10 Mr. Hedendahls explanations
and instructions. He stands at the main res
ervoir and by working the engineers brake
valve causes tho air chamber cylinders 10
move out and in the same as when in Use oh
cars that are on a track in train and in mo-
ton. His instructions are minute as to detail,
covering every point, Supposing many things
that might occur in case Of accident. -Omaha

PROHIBITION IN PETTICOATS.

1t is quite safe within the pale OF a
Southern community to criticise the
crank idea of female suffrage, and to typ
ifv the same with such nomenclature
as DR.. Mary Walker, Colonel Belva Lock
wood, and Major Susan b. Anthony,
with delicate suggestion of association
of Mrs. Anarchist Parsons, who kicked
down the door of hall at Orange, y. j..
The most startling phase Of the craze
Just now is Georges plan to organize a
woman's party allied to the Prohibition
lists. with a view of forcing female suf-
frage just in order to abolish rum, which,
saws Mr.. George, is woman's arch-enemy
the DESTROYER of domestic bliss, and the
fiend of all evil 1t cannot be denied
that there is a spice of reason in this,
and it is certain that the idea will take
hold in some quarters without reference
to the source whence it came and the OBJ
iect it has in view, which is George as
President and Colonel Belva as Vice
President.
Think of the Inauguration of George
and Belva, a long procession of cranks Of
both sexes, with a vast banner of a
strange device akin to the ensanguined
garment of Pinkston Sherman and
blazoned with reversed bottle.

up Theoretically and will not give any

INTER- STATE COMMERCE..

The decision of the United States SUI
preme Court, which we published yester-
day, involves the whole question Of inter
State commerce. The Supreme Court Of
Illinois had declared a railroad company
to be liable to prosecution for violation
of a State law against freight discrimina-
tions in giving different rates to different
shippers in Illinois for carrying their
goods to New York Justice Miller, in
rendering the decision, says that however
lust and proper such legislation may be
within State relating to ship
ments beginning and terminating with
in the borders of the State it cannot
be allowed to extend to a series Of States
without placing great restrictions and
difficulties in the way of trade and
trenching upon the exclusive power OF
Congress to regulate commerce between
States. State laws regulating shipments
beyond their own borders are declared
unconstitutional. Chief-Justice Waite
and Justices Bradley and Gray dissent,
and declare that, Congress having failed
to legislate to prevent determinations, ii
is the province of the State to do 50.

BROTHERHOOD OF RAILROAD
ENGINEERS.

Cldef Arthur, who is so well known
all over the country as wise ana con-
servative man during the trying scenes
of the last year, is credited yesterday
with an utterance which betokens the
honor and character of sensible under
standing of the troubles that environ the
labor interest:
q am one of those men" said Mr. Ar
thur. "who believe that in every good
work the hand of God may be seen.
There were present, Mr.. Arthur con-
tinued, engineers from every State and
Territory, the Canadas and old Mexico
and he thought that, taken as whole,
our engineers would compare favorably
with any class of men in this country or
any other. TYenty-three years ago.there
were twelve men in the order, and now
there were about 10000. No discussion
of religion or politics is permitted in the
Brotherhood, but at any rate that did not
prevent him telling the men under nm 10
be good He would like to say that eve
~ member was a good Christian for that,
he thought, was the highest type Of man
hood.
Now, if Mr.. Arthur were the head OF
an order boasting a membership of one
million of men ready to obey the order OF a
chief, we should know:that he would hold
the good of his people paramount to sell
ish ambition and salary The working
men would be blessed in the wisdom OF
patriotic counsel, and, like the Brother
hood of Engineers, they would compre-
bend sound principles and natural laws
instead of being misled with sensation

and lavishly supplied, with a cui-
sine already to command and a high
salaried chef, which latter, by the
way, e all the way from s 1000

considerable money, as you car read
lily see. Four hundred or $500 q day

Look at the country homes, such a
