NOT AT ALL ALARMED.

New YORK, Special Telegram, March L.
Marvin Hughitt, of the Chicago & North,
western railroad, said tonight that there
was no truth in the story recently printed
here that he had come East to pre-
vent adverse legislation i'll regard to
land grants OF the Omaha road There
was no foundation whatever for such
a statement. He is not all alarmed ut the
present state OF affairs among the North
western roads, and is inclined to think that
the war now going on will not be very
serious one.
The representatives of the roads running
west from Chicago will meet the executive
committee of the trunk lines tomorrow
The object OF the meeting is to Undue, the
trunk lines to pro-rate on the Pacitic cut
rates. At present the trunk lines are dis
posed to insist on an arbitrary
rate between eastern tdewaJer
points and Chicago, but there is
possibility that they may fiually decide to
cooperate with the roads Of the Pacific coast
association in reduced rate. Ii they de-
eide to do this, then the Western roads will
not attempt to take any OF the At
lantic Underwater traffic, but will con.
fne themselves to interior points where
the arbitrary rate is not in force.
This will throw the bulk of the Pacific coast
business on the "Sunset" route and the Pa
cific Mail company, and may eventually
bring the Eastern trunk lines into the fight
as there is talk of using the Chesapeake 4
Ohio as tidewater outlet for the Hunting.

Winter on Mt. Washington.

From the Hartford Times.
1t is known by investigation that
the climate OF the summit OF Mt.
Washington, New Hampshire, winter
and summer, corresponds very closely
to that of the lower third OF Green
land. Its temperature, its gales, its
deficient flora Chiefly scanty and
coarse sedge-like grass, and the Green
land sandwort) and its very form
alton, of Jagged, bare, forbidding
granite rocks, all correspond to the
Greenland situation. In that hyper.
borean realm, as on Mt. Washington,
a few scattering tufts of thin and
stunted sedge, and of Greenland sand
wort-which seems to be the nearest
American approach to the ed lweiss
of the Alpine slopes-can be found, in
summer, struggling out of rocky clefts
having a handful of soil and south
ern exposure. And the winter sit
uation of both localities appears to
be as closely alike as possible. Hence
it is interesting tonote that our CORE
spondent on the New England sum-
nit, in his report of the weather
for January, 1856, mentions five
gales which exceeded the seand-
ard velocity of 100 miles per hour,
and one of these registered 122 miles.
Such winds often blow away the cups
ofthe thermometer, or break the staff.
They far transcend anything known in
the character of tornadoes in these
lower lands. We do not recall any
gale in Connecticut-not the famous
September gales of 1915 and 1921,
nor the local tornado which destroyed
so many buildings in Wallingford-in
which the winds velocity probably
exceeded 80 or 80 miles per hour
But on the most elevated point in
New England no month passes in
which these Connecticut figures are
not exceeded; and it is no very I'M
common experience, up there, to meet
with gales blowing at the rate of 40
or $50 miles per hour. In April, three
years ago, gale on Mt. Washington
blew at the appalling rate OF 1S4
miles per hour OF course the few
buildings on that bare, rocky summit
are securely bolted down with heavy
timbers, which meet and are locked
over the ridge, and bolted firmly into
the rocks below To the two dwellers
in the signal station the question of
life or death is reduced to the simplest
terms, for it is merely a question
whether the building itself shall be
blown. not from it's moorings, but
literally into pieces.

The Coolest Man in the French
ARMY.

David ker, in Harper's Magazine for March.
"The coolest man | ever knew was
old Victor de ST. Hillaire, the colonel
of an infantry regiment that saw some
service in Algeria" said Col. Henri
Dubois, one of q party OF French Off
GERS who, having halted to take a look
at Siam on their way home from the
Tonquin war, had come to dine with
us on board of a British gun-boat
which had somehow found it's way up
the Mel Nam river.
"Pve known men," he continued,
"who managed to put on great show
OF GOODNESS in time of danger, though
they We're really very much excited;
but there was no putting on with St.
Hillaire-it came as natural to him as
eating his dinner. All his hair breadth
escapes land he had had so many that
he could hardly count them HIMSELF
had left him as cool as before, and it
really seemed as if dangers passed him
because he would not condescend to
notice that they were there at all.
Once his men mutinied, and two Of
them clapped their bayonets to his
breast as if to run him through; but
the colonel only smiled and said, as
quietly as ever, BE careful, my lads,
you might hurt me.
Now it happened that in Colonel
st. Hilaire's regiment there was pep
perry young b-Lieutenant who was
as hot as the Colonel was cool. With
him it was always las you English
say "a word and a blow, and the
blow first He had fought SO many
duels that the soldiers used to
call him Sudden Death, and to say
that the best way to end the war
would be for him to challenge the
enemy's whole army, man by man.
Well, one day this Lieutenant had
committed some fault, for which the
Colonel gave him such scolding that
the young fellows hot blood couldn't
bear it any longer, Quick as lightning
he whipped out pistol and fired right
at St Uilaire's face, so close that the
muzzle almost touched him. But the
pistol missed fire, and the Colonel
said, quite cody, 'Forty-eight hours
arrest for not keeping your arms in
proper ORDER"
And was that all the Lieutenant
got?' asked a dozen voices at once, in
undisguised amazement.
''That was all; and | can tell YOU
that he thought it was quite enough
Ha, General, good evening. | was
just telling these gentlemen how you
once put me under arrest for not hav-
ing my pistols in working order"

An Old-FaSliOned COurtshiD.

There is a beautiful old-fashionea
wooing recorded in the journal Of Eliz-
abeth Woodvile, previous to her mar
riage with Lord Grey This lady aft
erwards became the queen OF Edward
w., and died in 1886. She describes
certain blissful Monday on which
she first became acquainted with Lord
Grey. The lady rose at four in the
morning and helped Catherine, the
dairy-maid, to milk the COWS. Then
she made poultice for Rachel, an
other dairy-maid, and gave Robin O
ry. At six O'Clock she break tasted
on buttock OF beef and beer, "a little
of the stalest." At seven o'clock she
rode a matter Of six miles on a little
pony without saddle or b1jdle At
ten O'Clock she dined, and thus runs
the entry in her diary: Went
to dinner. John Grey, most
comely youth-but what is that
to me? A virtuous maiden should
always be under the direction
OF her parents. John Grey ate but
little and stole a great many tender
looks at me. John Grey likes white
teeth; my teeth are OF Il pretty good
color, think, and my hair is as black
as jet, though ! say it, and John, if
mistake not, is OF the same OPINION
At eleven O'Clock she walked in the
fields with the company. John Grey
lifted her over every stie, and twice
squeezed my hand with great We
hemence." At three in the ait ernoon q
fai mer's house was burned down.
John Grey proposed subscription on
the spot, gave "a himself Never
saw him look so comely as at that
moment" says the lady in hey diary

Immediately afterward she fed the hogs
and poultry. At seven O'Clock she
supped on baked goose-pie and pork.
roasted to rags" At nine o clock
she was in bed, and, having a good
digestion. she dreamed about her
lover instead OF demons, which, ac-
cording to Fuseli, generally visit tie
slumbers OF the individual who il

the troublous life which was before
her; how she would become Queen Of
England, and die at last in confine-
ment at Southwark.
