Why the Students Smiled.

A famous college president, a clcr'
gyman, was addressing the students
in the chapel at the beginning of the
college year. ut is" he said in con-
clusion, "a matter of congratulation
to all the friends of the college that
this year opens with the largest fresh
man class in it's history" And then,
without any pause, he turned to the
Scripturelesson for the day, the third
Psalm, and began reading in a voice
of thunder;
Lord, how are they increased that
trouble me-"
This, however. was hardly more
unfortunate than the choice of the
hymn: Return, We ransomed sinners,
home," as the closing selection OF a
certain American board MEETING

Yesterday Nr Dewell acted very strange and repre- sented to Mrs Dewell that he was Wm H. Vanderbilt and it was not necessary for him to work. The delusion seemed to W ork on him and near the close of the day, while the wife was busy with some work, he left the house, taking with him a $1O dress pattern belonging to her. He left his family and in the evening Mrs Dewell, who was without funds, solic- tied aid from house to house for enough money to take her and her little boy to Waterbury. She says that her husband often has these spells and stays away from home several weeks. Mrs Dewell says she has left him several times for the purpose of earning living for her self and child, but her husband would pursue wherever she went.

''Cars, cars, cars" continues to be the
cry all along the Union Pacific, and yet II
we may accept the word of Salt Lake
shipper, empty freight cars burden the
tracks here and in Ogden for three and
four days without being moved. Said this
gentleman to a HERALD reporter yester-
day: 1.-The other day while bound for Park
City l missed train in Ogden and laid
over at the depot there, intending to take
freight train. judge there were from one
thousand to fifteen hundred empty cars in
the depot, and | was told a freight Train
would go out at IL o'clock. Eleven came
and there was no train. At L was told

Uneasy Lies TIE Head

Uneasy lies the head that wears
CROWN it is true, and it may be stated,
just at this particular iuncture there are
other heads than those adorned by preci-
BUS metals aud glittering stones that are
not resting any too comfortably. Decapita-
ton may or may not meet them, and it is
the suspense attendant upon the uncer-
tainty that is causing all the mental worry
that is being INDUCED in by the employees
of the local offices. One of these said yes
terday that The HERALD was giving too
much prominence to the supposition that
radical changes were about to occur, and
seemed to be inviting the guillotine to come
and take up its residence among US. All of
which is far from correct. The
HERALD's railway man is a personal ac-
quaintance of most of the railroad boys
with all whose positions bring them into
contact with the public. With probably
two or three exceptions, he has ever found
them to be gentlemanly, courteous and
obliging, and any change would be re-
GREETED. At the same time, the powers
that be do not take any of these qualifica-
tions into account when q change is de-
cided upon. That man has spent the
greater and best part of his life in the ser
vice of a railway company: that he has
sacrificed his health in their interests; that
he has worked early and late, matters not
Out he goes. and his position is very often
filed by youngster, whose greatest recon-
mendation is that he happens TO bear the

tween the Union Pacific and the North
western was entered into not the remotest
idea was entertained by the contracting
parties that such alliance would give Of
Tense to the managers of competing lines.
The alliance certainly seemed perfectly
natural, in view Of the tendency which ex
listed toward a greater concentration of
railroad interests. Indeed, it appeared to
have the merit of securing all the benefits
to be attained by actual consolidation while
preserving the identity and independence
of the separate corporations. Unfortu-
nately, however, the compact aroused an
tagonlSm and created lll-feeling almost
from the first, and Mr.. Gould in particular
-aSsuredly most powerful factor in rail-
road affairs-has been ouJspoken and pro-
nounced in his opposition to it, having, &C
cording to current reports, declared that 1t
was an obstacle in the way of harmony IN
the west. If the statements of those who
now succeed in control are to be credited,
the sole motive which has actuated them
has been the desire to remove this obstacle.
As concerns the general situation, there
lore, the Immediate effect of the change is
to simplify the railway problem in the
west 1t may not be desirable or necessary
to annul the alliance in question, but the
dln1culty, real or supposed, IN the way OF
complete harmony with other lines, will no
longer exist, or, if it does exist, will be
capable of removal, since the new directors
of the Union Pacific are also large owners
in such other lines. And this is very i'm
portant at the present iuncture. For never
was confidence in railway affairs so essen
tial as now, while at the same tine nothing
will so tend to promote confidence as the
knowledge that there is to be common,
united effort to improve the situation. Mr..
Gould seems to be strongly in favor of the
joint agency plan recommended by Chair
man Walker, of the Interstate Railway
association. If agreement for division Of
business can be reached, and a method for
effecting such division be devised, no plan
yet suggested can be considered as possess
ing so many strong points as this. 1t
would remove all motive for cutting rates,
while the saving in expenses through the
abolition of separate agencies and the dis
continuance of unnecessary train service
would be enormous.-Er.
