Sunday for Railroad Men.

Two of the great railroads of the coun-
try are taking measures to secure Sunday
rest for their trainmen. For many years
Sunday has been a great day for moving
freight trains. Tracks were compare
lively free from passenger trains that
day, and the freights had clear field.
Competition was SO sharp between the
various roads that that road Jared best
which could move the most freight the
quickest. Consequently freight trainmen
generally had Sunday about the hardest
day in the week.
Now there is prospect for a change.
The Pennsylvania road has issued an
order that a considerable number of its
freight trains shall cease to run on Sum-
day. The New York Central road has
gone even further. April 2S its Sunday
order went into effect. On that line and
it's branches no freight is offered or &C
cepted during the twenty-four hours be-
ginning at 9 o'clock Sunday morning,
with the exception of live stock and per-
ishable goods. The number of Sunday
freight trains is thus reduced 20 per cent
on these roads.
Trainmen on Mr.. Depew's road and Oh
the Pennsylvania too will have time to
take bath and q Sunday morning nap
like their employers.

coming large interest in the south.
Louisiana is the state whence the largest
shipments come north. The crop this
year has been larger than it ever was be-
fore there. From the 18th to the 18th of
April from one railway station in the
parish of Tangipahoa 1,240 bushels of
berries were shipped. Some of these
berries measured over four inches in di-
ameter. Until within few years straw
berry culture was never attempted on
large scale in Louisiana.
