A correspondent Of the London Times,
writing on the subject of the daily race
between the two fast English trains to
the north. says: "There is one point Of
which have seen no notice taken-the
increased wear and tear mentally and
bodily Of the driver and stoker on these
special trains. A friend Of one Of the
drivers told me that he saw marked Of.
feet on his apparent health. The driver
told me his anxiety was greatly increased.
On one occasion his stoker, who had
gone along the engine to oil o valve. be
came paralyzed with fear, SO that he
could not move forward or backward.
The driver had to leave his place and
follow his stoker and seize his hand, and
80 they regained the standing place.
The distances run are so great and the
pace so rapid that any oiling, ETC., is
done with increased risk. The force Of
the wind is so great that when the
stoker creeps along the footplate along
side Of the engine he has to hold on by
the rail like grim death, and has been
carried off his feet.

England's Queen Is popularity supposed

whole, but correspondent of the London
Truth gives the following sketch Of her
daily life at Balmoral that shows that she
has to work as hard, If not harder, than
ordinary mothers, in the performance OF
her duties. The Queen never concerns
herself with public or private business or
with correspondence Of any kind tapsrt
from kilograms, which arrive and are
dispatched by dozens every day., except
between breakfast and luncheon. This
has been the rule land very iudicious
one it is) throughout her life. At Bal
moral the official boxes and nearly all
the private correspondence arrive about
in the morning. Everything Is dealt
with between $50 and l:l5, during
which time the Queen works as hard as
any clerk In London. her private score

who arrived the day before they are al

PATTI AND THE BunaLAR.

II is said that shortly before Nine.
Patti left Wales for her South American
tour, she had thrilling experience with
q burglar. The songstress was alone In
her chamber preparing to retire for the
night, when she heard sound in an ad-
joining room, as II some one were NOV
ing about. Patti hastily donned 9
wrapper and walked boldly into the
room from which the sound came, and
stood face to face with q gigantic bur-
glar. He wore o mask to conceal bis
features, and in his hand he carried .
heavy club. The pluoky woman asked
him what he was doing there.
"Don't you see. he replied in broad
Welsh dialect, 81 am stealing your dis-
monds!"
And he held up to her astonished eyes
the most beautiful bracelet which she
possessed. Patti did not scream. She
simply walked across the room, pressed
an electric button to summon the servant.
Instead OF the servant, however, Signor
Nicolini appeared on the scene. The
burglar attempted to strike him with his
club, but his game was frustrated by
Patti. She grasped the club as it was
raised In the air. Nicolini and the bur
glar then clinched. and in the struggle
that ensued the enterprising but alto.

Me Didn't Advertise.

A nervous looking man went into
a store the other day and sat down
for half an hour or 30, when a clerk
asked him il she could do anything
for him. He said no, he didn't want
anything. She went away and he sat
there for half an hour longer, when
the proprietor went to him and asked
him if he wanted to be shown any
thing. No." said the nervous man,

Flash. Light photography.

A Connecticut Yankee suggests
the use of fiash-light photography
as a means OF protecting bank vaults
from burglars. He says: "Iwould
have camera placed in q position
where IL would command in the field
of the lens a space Of ten feet square
or more in front Of the door OF the
vault, and have the other apparatus
so arranged that rs soon as tamper-
ing with the vault door was at
tempted the whole would be placed
in operation. My plan would OF
course include retaining the burglsr-
alarm connecting with police head
quarters, As soon as the burglars
had begun operations the police
would be alarmed, and at the same
instant picture of the men would
be made by the camera and the fash
light combined. so that even if the
men escaped the police they would
leave behind them evidence which
would very probably eventually re-
suit in their detection"

said well-dressed man in down town
saloon on Saturday. Then, as 10 give

winked at the mans companion and
gave significant glance at the empty
glass on the bar.
A physician, who makes his headquar-
ters in Chestnut street drug store, was
asked II there was any way In which
man could be cured Of red nose, and
his answer was an emphatic mo"
:" 1t is bad thing TO have . rcd nose,
he said, because most people think that
il was brought about by whisky drink
ing; and while this belief is justified in Q
majority Of instances. ID is not always
the case. One Of Philadelphia's most
prominent men has nose as red as
ROSTERS comb, and know that he
never drank drop Of liquor in his life.
He will carry IL with him TO his grave.
Cheese. if eaten frequently and in large
quantities, will delay reddening Of the

How TraInmen ON q Dakota Road
Manage 60 Get Their Pay.

A man was one day making a trip
on a mixed train on Dakota train.
Passage on these trains is never taken
except for journeys Of considerable

faster for short distances. On this oc-
casion the movement was even more

!" No, this is pretty middlin' level"
=" Do you always run at this gait?'
No, we generally hump along
little EASTERN this"
May / ask what is the trouble
then ?"
Certainly. We found two-year-
old steer stuck in trestle back here,
before you got on, and stopped and
helped 1t out. You know the rules of
the road are that in such cases the
animal belongs to the company"
But l don't see Why that makes
you run so laundering slow"
"Why, you blame fool, we're takin'
that steer along to headquarters; got
it tied on behind, and it amt used to

I'm doing all l can; got the brake
man prodding it up with an umbrella,

IN THE WRONG SECTION.
The Mistake OF n LittIe Girl Causes
Panic tn q Sleeper.

4 - - ssCCRtEs
1. b. Sims, who has just returned
to the city with his family, had an
awful fright the other night on
board OF Pullman sleeping-car.
Itappears that his little daughter,
about 2 years Of age, got up to get O
drink OF water. Returning, she
missed the section where her father
was, and lay down beside an old
gentleman from New Orleans, whom
in the darkness, she mistook for her
papa.
In an instant she was asleep. In
the meantime Mrs. Sims waited and
waited for the child to come back,
until impotence gave way TO anx-
iety and anxiety to alarm. Finally
she awoke Mr.. Sims and told him
what had occurred. He few ont of
bed, ransscked the toilet room,
groped in every conceivable corner;
bat the child was nowhere. An
open door at the rear OF the coach
suggested horrible possibility,
which the cheerful porter clinched
with the soothing information that
the door had been open for half an
hour.
AT last. hoping against hope, Mr..
Sims cast ceremony TO the dogs, and
one by one began TO explore every
section Of the coach, in spite Of the
inmates. Finally. snugly sleeping
in unconscious innocence, he found
the little girl asleep at the side OF
the old gentleman from New Or.
leans who slept like q craven image.
and was as dead to what was passing
around him as an Egyptian mummy.
1t was some time before the sgita-
tion caused by the child's mistake
subsided, and OF all the parties con-
cerned none was more surprised than
the strange old party from New Or
leans.-Memphis Appeal.

Cslors OF NJ xican Flowers.

The Mexican flowers are very deeply
colored. IF red it is the most glowing
and intense; If yellow or purple, the
richest; if white or pink, the purest and
most delicate Fresh flowers are
abundant and cheap throughout the
year, including roses, pansies, sweet
peas, heliotropes, camellias and magnifi-
cent peoples. 'Calla lilies, the size of a
fan, bloom luxuriantly in every ditch"
and the geraniums are as tall as a man.
The most remarkable flower is the ''tree
Of the little hands," a native of the
colder region. The bright red flowers
are well defined miniature hands. 1t is
slow of growth, not reaching full size in
100 years. In the valley of Mexico fifty
varieties Of lilies, no two alike, bloom

Fire Fly Photographs.

The ~''cucuyos," or ''lantern flies" OF
Cuba, Mexico. and Brazil, the Py-
rophorus noctilucus. are a species OF
swapping bug or beetle, which emit a
strong greenish light from oval spots on
either side of the thorax and from
between the segpents of the abdomen.
Mexican ladies imprison the cucuyos in
gauEe bags and wear them as living
diamonds on their hair or dress. So
brilliant is their light that a scientific
gentleman recently conceived the idea of
attempting TO photograph by it, and the
experiment was made. 1t was astonish-
ingly successful. A cucuyo was held in
the fingers within n inch of a photo
graph, so that the rays of light fell upon
it perpendicularly, and a perfect copy
was obtained on a sensitized plate. The
time of exposure to the insects light was
thirty seconds. The natural radiance

rapidly on and off, b ecucuyo will do his
