III a Sleeping Car.

II see some queer things while knocking
around tho country" said a travelling man
yesterday, land one of the funniest circum-
stances that can recall happenedla last Friday
night. l was running up the Milwaukee road
a few hundred miles, and when l left Sioux
City my only fellow passengers were an old
man and his wife, who occupied the lower
section across from me-. They had their berth
made up carly and soon retired. guess it
was the first time they had ever travelled in n
sleeper by the way they acted, for they were
pretty awkward about undressing, and l
heard the old lady lecture her husband for
not getting q larger room. After much
mutual grumbling all was quiet, and then
came a deep snore accompanied by one a triHe
more subducd. 1t was evident the old people
were asleep. At Manila Junction a large
party came in and taxed the sleeper to its
full capacity. The porter had to remove the
baggage of the couple, which was slowed
above them, and assigned the berth to n lit.
tie inofensive citizen weighing about 1oO
pounds. He removed his shoes and was climb
ing into the bunk when the old lady woke up
and began screaming.
"This aroused her husband and he yelled for
the porter, who came running down the aisle.
Say, there's a man just come into our ROOM
the old gentleman gasped out. The porter
tried to explain that he would not annoy
them, and had n right to be there. But nei.
Their would believe this, and the old man de-
clared that the porter had let him in to rob
them. He was also indignant to think any
one should DO allowed to sleep in the same
compartment as his wife, and finally he and
the old lady got up and dressed, and insisted
on the porter removing the bedding from
their berth, so they could use the seats.
peeped through the curtains and saw them
both sitting there nodding, but every few
minutes they would suddenly remember and
sit bolt upright. l pitied the poor, deluded
couple, and really the situation was not lack.
ing in pathos, for they were thoroughly in
earnest. When l got off the train curly next
morning they were still sitting there, but
both were sound asleep. the old gentleman
with his arms around his wife's waist, and
her head pillowed on his shoulder. '-Chicago

Vote of Confidence Accorded at Meeting
of Shareholders.
PARIS, Jan 27 Eight thousand share
holders attended the meeting of the Pan
anna canal company yesterday. DeLes-
seps having explained that the meeting
was informal, NJ. LeNormandy read the
ministrator' IS report and DeLesSeps read
his own. Approval of the reports was
expressed by unanimous vote. Charles
DeLesseps spoke in reference to
liquidation and the formation of a COM
pany. A shareholder had protested
against the advantages scored by the new
subscribers. He declared that according
10 the estimated traffic the original share
holders would never get a dividend. The
speaker was Kissed. Charles DeLesseps
continued amid an uproar. He said that
unless an advantage was given to the
new subscribers the enterprise would col
lapse altogether. The council were
therefore compelled TO submit. After
dwelling upon the fitness of NJ. Brunei
to direct the constitution of the new COM
pany, Charles DeLesseps asked a vote of
confidence, which was unanimously ac-
corded.
