English Railroad Cars.

JuHan Ralpn, IN HafperS weekly.
Those Americans who go abroad
to discover the short comings Of
Europe and to exaggerate their own
satisfaction with everything Ameri-
can are always happiest when they
are describing an English, French or
German railroad. They are halt
wrong, as bigots usually are; but
then, again, they are half right. The
truest comparison and fairest state
ment of the facts concerning English
and American railroads is that if
they had our cars and we had Ell
roads, both countries would enjoy
railroading in perfection.
In order to present the completest
picture to the American reader, let
him or her imagine a summer horse
car with the sides boarded up--one
of those horse cars we New Workers
ride upon Third Avenue in, with cross
seats facing one another in pairs.
Let him imagine the back of every
alternate seat carried up to the cell.
ing. That would divide the car into
three or four boxes. Then put q
window at each end of each seat, and
a door at each end of each passage.
The windows must be tight and i'm
movable, but there must be sliding
window in every door, to hoist up
and down by means OF a broad leath.
er strap, worn black and soft by
handling. Now mark "Third Glass;
on the boxes that are over the wheels
at either end of the car, and paint
"First Glass; on the boxes between
the wheels in the middle of the car.
Cushion the first class seats, and pad
their backs as high as ones head;
then carpet the third class seats, and
nail carpet on their backs, and you
have turned an open horse car into
an English railway carriage. There
is a narrow board OH each side of
the horse car for the conductor to
walk upon. and that is there also ON
the English car; but the Eng lsh rail
road car is boarded up at eitherend,
whereas the American horse car is
glazed.
Now let the American think of all
the comforts and conveniences there
are in our railroad coaches-the
toilet stand, the closet, the heating
apparatus. the drinking water cylin-
der. Not one of these is in an Eng
llsh railroad car-not one. All those
things are at the station, not in the
ears. In the English cars there is an
Intellectual and timid light, half con-
cealed above thick convex glass in
the roof OF each compartment, and
there is rack over each seat. This
is the fact whether you ride first
class or third class. In some of the
cars there is map of the railroad
over one bench, and an ADVERTISE
ment of the railroads hotels facing
it, in each compartment The map
strikes me as most excellent idea.
There is also posted in each COM
partnent statement OF the number
of persons it is designed to accomo-
date. '"This compartment Is for ten
PERSONS was always posted in the
third class and second class compart-
ments; in the first class ones the
seats are divided by padded arms to
accommodate three persons each, or
SIX to the compartments. That is a
European custom. Even on Ship
board on your way to Europe you
will notice, cast in the iron door
frame of every room aboard the ves-
sci, a statement of the number of
sailors or passengers or stewards or
stokers that may inhabit each apart
ment.

PARTING Wits PHYLLIS.

Phyllis, Phyllis, we must part;
For a while gu will not sec me;
Yet lshall not break my heart--
Parting will from sorrow free me. 81
When before youreyes I go

But the more INV feelings glow III
Something seems the more to freeze you
When wander f,iraway

Let us cease this folly, pray
We are better far asunder.

SERIOUS FIRE IN LONDON.


 The Wellington Barracks Burned Sick Children Carried Out i'm Blan- kets-Two Believed to Have Per ished.
 LONDON, Nov. 12.-The Guards Yelling ton barracks are burning. The fire origi- mated under the staircase in the quarters of the married men. All the adult inmates were rescued by means of ladders amid great excitement. A number. of children suffering with measles were wrapped in blankets and taken to places of shelter, but two of the little patients are missing and it is feared that they were overlooked in the confusion and have perished in the flames. When the fire was discovered and the signal for Sire parade" was sounded on the bugles the troops assembled prompt ly with splendid discipline and worked eagerly and effectively according to the manual. s
 Later. The barracks were almost en- tirely destroyed before the flames were brought under control. The children who were thought to have %perished, have been found alive and unhurt. The lates report says over twenty persons were mort or less injured by jumping from windows and that six persons received serious in juries and were sent to the hospital.

PROVIDENCE, R. l., Nov. 12.-Miss Hen rietta D. L. Luft recovered S2,4S5 from the Evening Telegram in the supreme court this afternoon. Last winter she was walking along the street when a colored woman assaulted her. A mixed up report was published over which this head line was used: "A Colored Woman Assaults Her White Rival Last Night" It came to light that Miss Luft was not the person the colored woman took her to be, she having been lying in wait for another wo- man whom she accused with intimacy with her husband. The Telegram pub lished a retraction, but did not give Miss Luft's name She sued for $15. 900.

PRocroR's OPERA HOUSE.

A very good sized house greeted Marie Hubert Frohman and her company last night in .'The Witch" at Proctor's Opera house. The performance was closely fol- lowed, and frequent applause was be- slowed on the good points of the play. Marie Frohman is well supported, and the quaint costumes and the grim humor of the play is we'll brought out. ''The Witch" is new play, and so far has met with great success. The strange set ting of the Salem witcheraft delusion gives a weirdness and intensity to it that makes the play interesting throughout. All critics join in saying the play is a success and that it will make a long run. The managers are very fortu- nate to have Miss FrohInan to interpret the character of Marguerite. the witch, which she does with the skill of the true artist. We would also notice the acting of Charles Jehlinger in the character of Walter Leyden. A little light seasoning by the introduction of the scene in the stocks, and Skipper Mulligan did not come amiss, and gave little relief from the intensity of the play. Miss Frohman was called before the curtain and received a very handsome basket of roses. The play will be repeated tonight also. These are the initial performances. The
 play is historical drama, and pains have
 been taken to present correctly the dress | customs and speech of the time-the latter part of the seventeenth century. The scenes
 are supposed to represent faithfully ths places in which the scenes are laid, ane the questions of the trial and the. judg l ment rendered are taken directly from | the records of the Salem withcraft ant
 trial. The play is somewhat long, but tn plot and interpretation are such as tt l command interest and attention through I out. We would commend the play as on of the best and most pleasing of it's kind
