In riding from olneyville to the city

noticed two boys sitting IN the seat in
front They were about fourteen years
of age, and evidently students in city
school. residing in some suburban viii
lage on the Stonington road. One boy
was very studiously poring over Latin
grammar, while the other was eagerly
devouring the contents Of a boys cheap
novel. entitled "Dick Dodger. The Detec-
tive" The contrast in the boys reading
was so marked that we instantly pre-
dicted a brilliant future for the boy with
the grammar, and an unsuccessful career
fer the boy who was reading the hashy
literature. Az the train entered the
Union depot at Providence, the boy with
the novel lose and gave the book to his
companion, who put il into his pocket
with an air of proprietorship. and then
gave the Latin grammar TO the late novel
reader, who strapped it up with some
other school books and the two left the

THE WILBUR ROAD.
A Prominent OFFICIALS Opinion Oi

A Prominent officials Opinion of
It.
The Wilbur road which is to connect
Southern California with the central and
northern parts of the State by com.
peting line, has not fallen through as
some people would think, judging by
the fact that operations have been en-
tirely suspended. The following opinion
given by prominent railroad official
to newspaper man up north Is worthy
of production: am convinced he stated
that the road would be built, and the
present delay only shows more clearly
the fact that the Santa Fe is behind the
enterprise. During 1887 the sum OF
money expended bv President Strong
and his associates aggregated $50, ,000, 600,
and so enormous were the calls upon
them, in consequence of their vigorous
extension policy, that they bankrupted
all their friends and we're compelled to
call halt. When the last big Santa Fe
mortgage was put upon the market, the
directors had conference with
a number of prominent New York
bankers who deal in these securities.
Among others present were the Selig-
mans, Drexels and Belmonts and the
railroad people if their mortgages were
taken up to borrow no more money and
to stop extension work for the period of
one year. 1t was President E. F. Win
slow who advanced part of the money
which was expended in Southern Cali
fornia, but his private means having
been drained by the tremendous de-
mands of the main Santa Fe system, he
is unable to give further aid until the
new year. Then 1 expect, continued
the speaker" to see a big
force put to work on the
San joaquin Valley line, and that
important work put through without fur
ther delay. The character of the men
behind the enterprise commends it, there
being no possibility that Messrs. Wilbur,
Paige and Paulsell, after pledging them
selves to the execution of such project,
should let it 60 over in the face of the
emphatic demand for competing line
in the San Joaquin Valley.

NEW RATES.

Announcements by General Frefg hi
Agent Gray.
A dispatch was received at the South
ern Pacific Offices here yesterday from
General Freight Agent Richard Gray
stating that a new circular regarding
freight rates is being prepared. One Of
the chief features in it will be that Los

vided for in circular No. g. regulating
the tariff on shipments from Pacific coast
terminals can quote the Buffalo rates in

An Epileptic Dog.

Captain Loomis, of the police force,
was summoned to the Fort saloon on
Fort street yesterday afternoon by the
news that a mad dog was confined in the
yard back of the place. A genuine mad
dog is believed to be an unknown article
in this climate and the officer went there
expecting to find that it was only case
of distemper. The animal, however,
appeared to be actually mad. He ran
wildly about the yard swapping and
barking and foaming at the mouth.
When water was offered to him it
seemed to increase his fury. He bit and
tore at himself exactly as rabid animal
does. The officer thought best to shoot
the animal and the act was promptly
performed.
