The PENNSYLVANIA Railroad is making

The Pennsylvania Railroad is making
experiments TO mitigate the horrors of
burning trains. 1t is proposed to place
ON the engines connection with the
steam-pump, by which hose can be
attached and used to quench fire. A
trial was made the other day in West
Philadelphia, and the pump threw a
stream over the highest buildings. If
further experiments prove successful, a
number of passenger engines will be
equipped, and the train crews exercised
in the fire drill.

THERE is said to be a crisis just now
in the false hair trade. The great hair
dressers of London, Paris and Vienna
have placed orders for hair which it
will take the supplies of five years to
satisfy, and the amount of fair hair
brought into the market is beginning
to fall short When the hair was worn
in a small coil on the nape of the neck,
as was the fashion few years back,
little false hair was used, and the COM
plants of the hairdresserS were loud and
deep. Since ladies, however, have
taken to pile their tresses on the top
of their head, an addition is required
by those to whom nature has not been
bountiful in the matter of locks, and
hence an increased demand, which the
introduction of the catogan has only
served to stimulate

The youngest commercial drummer
in the state, and in the United States,
as for that matter, is Harry Wade of
Buffalo, n. Y. He is but twelve years
of age, and son of Frank A. Wade.
The way Master Wade first went out
was owing to the serious illness of his
father, who is now confined to his house.
The boy had made frequent trips with
his father and observed his ways of
doing business. He prevailed upon his
father to let him take his route, which
is through New York State. The boy
has made two successive trips over the
route, and is the fayorite of commercial
men and his fathers customers.

In Democratic circles matters are quiet.
After the Republican ticket is in the held the
campaign will open lively. There is deter
mination to have full registration and tull

designed to follow it with other public meet
ings.

siye from start to finsh and an old time
majority may be set down as certain.
There is some excitement in Republican
ranks. The chief interest centres in the for
nation of the county central committee, and
contests for membership will take place IN
several if not all the districts, at the primar-
les to-day little war is being waged IN
