vannah. Besides, who would ba ablo to
keep up with car load of money! If
is largely silver, and the ten-cent n;acea
and the nickels and the coppers wonld
run away with things"
"How is the business conducted
tt en?"
Easily enough. In fact there is but
one way to properly carry it on.
That is to draw on the banks
at each city for enough to pay off
until the next city is reached. For
instance, in leaving Savannah over
either the Savannah. Florida and Wes.-
ern railroad or the Central railroad lust
enough money is taken to pay off en-
ployees, including agt MS, track hands,
operators and others at each OF the sta
tions. This amount is not very large.
The largest amounts are paid out in the
ct 20; for instance, in Macon, the engi-
neers, firemen, conductors, yard hands
and others of the Savannah and Western
railroad, are paid off; in Columbus the
Savannah and Western force 10 paid off {;
in Augusta the employees of the South
Carolina division of the Central are
paid off; the same is true with tine Sa.
vannah, Florida and Western railway.
By this means the largest sums paid out
amount to little more than transfer
OF money procured from the banks,
through the paymaster of the railroad ,
10 the employees. The sums paid out on
the line between the headquarters OF
each division are small compared to the
amounts paid out in the cities. None OF
the engineers or firemen or conductors
or brakemen are paid off at points along
the line. They are the employees that
get the largest pay"
The railroad man related an incident
which took place several years ago,
which he said put matters in bad light
aud made the pay train tempting to train
robbers. A newspaper reporter on one
OF the dailies in Western town wrote a
| long article, stating how much money 1t
required to pay off the employees OF
the road, and concluded by saying it
was singular that the robbers never held
up pay trains. The figures the newspa-
per man gave were correct, and the artl'
Gle attracted wide spread attention.
Several officials of the road went to the
general manager about the matter, and
began to suggest a remedy for what they
considered very bad practice.
The general manager explained to
them that the amount of money carried
on pay trains was small compared to
what is carried on regular mail and ex'
press train, but the matter was
not settled until the newspaper man
published an interview with the general
manager, giving the facts and stating
the manner in which business was con
Quoted on pay trains. The railroadeI
said, however, that the danger of pay
train robbery is very slight. The rob
bers have posted themselves about these
matters. Il Savannah News.

An Old Railroad Man Tells why
Pay Trains are Never Held Up.,
"Why is it that the train robbers never

Because they know their reward

That is the way an ex-railroad man put

Less money" he added, "is carried
on a pav train than on any other kind OF
train. Some folks imagine that the pay
car of the employees of the two great
systems terminating here, aggregating
hundreds of thousands monthly, is piled
away in the cars, and is hauled over the
road".

BASEBALL.
The Home Team Wins Another
Game.

The Home Team Wins Another
Game.
The baseball game between the Los
Angeles and Riverside mines at the new
grounds on First street, yesterday after
noon, attracted large crowd of those
interested in the national game. The
cable company was obliged to run
trains composed of two coaches and q
grip each, and they were crowded to
their utmost capacity. The grounds
were in very fair condition considering
the rains, which brought the water upon
them in such quantities, and by another
week there will be nothing to COM
plain of in regard to their softness
or dampness. The game was quite in
teresting, and, until the fifth inning,
seemed to be in favor of the Riverside
club, but series of lucky hits when
there were several men on the bases
gained the home club six runs and
placed it 30 far in the lead that the
visitors could not catch up. While there
were no very brilliant plays nor any very
hard batting, there were no very bad
plays, and the ball few from the
bat into the field sufficient
number of times to keep the crowd in g
good humor. The hardest hit was a
three-bagger made by one of the home
nine. Several two-baggers were made,
but no one got in home run. Barring
few instances, when the sphere failed
to stick in the hands of the players
when dropped from the sky. there was
nothing to complain of and much to
praise. The score at the end of the
game stood as follows:

A Belle OF Long Ago.

Buried alve Not under the sod or
under the water, but under the roof.
The census man has been playing the
role of the devil on two sticks. He
has lifted OIL the roof of several obscure
apartment houses up in Harlem aud
brought to light the remains Of people
once familiar figures in metropolitan
fine life. Thirty years ago West Four
teenth street was veritable Faubourg
st. German. Many of the wealthiest
families inhabited the broad mansions
now given over to business or board
ing. One of these twenty-hve-foot
brown stone houses was occupied by q
merchant in the Southern trade. His
wife was beauty genuine beauty,
with the sky In her eyes. the dawn on
her cheeks. and pearls of the Orient in
her mouth. But the war came, and
with it disaster. The beautiful wife
saw her diamonds go, horses go, but
Ter go. and she had no more dinner
parties, no more boxes at the opera.
Friends fell away. admirers grew less
ardent, and at last the old family resi-
dence went under the hammer, for the
colonel was forced to bankruptcy. One
morning the beautiful wife awoke to
find him sleeping his last sleep quietly
by her side. This was twenty years
ago. The beautiful woman. to catch a
glimpse of whose fair face and fairy
feet the Union Club boys would sit for
hours at their front windows, seemed
to drop out of New York life forever,
until the census man unearthed hei
under the roof in cheap apartment
house, faded. wrinkled, bent and sc
irritable that she refused to answer
any questions, and thus gave rise to O
especial investigation, with the result
already given.-N Y. Cor. Boston

poating. A friend from Kentucky
told me that at the ope ming of the last

tive from one OF the mountairs counties
appeared in Frankfort for the first
time. 1t is highly probable that never
before had he visited so large town
as Frankfort. When he arrived at the
capitol he surveyed the building with
awe-struck expression, and asked a
bystander TO direct him to the place
where the representatives met The
person addressed offered TO take him
to the hall. and started up one OF the

There will be few persons who will
ever take the trouble, as they ought
to tree out their shoes when not in use,
no matter how costly they are. The
next best thing, which also costs a
little trouble, is to button up fine

THE BEAVER.
Some " iho Strange Things Said Of the
Cunning Animal

An old hunter writing to the Chicago
Times on the habits of the beaver, saws:
There is no doubt Of the sagacity
and Intelligence of the beaver. and the
attempt of the writer OF the article to
catch the beaver by setting a trap IN
the dam after cutting ii away will
amusc every old trapper that reads it.
The beaver will invariably use the trap
to repair his broken dam, and will
worry seldom be caught in that way.
Many trappcrs have also had the expe-
rience of having thel- traps filled with
mud and sticks when they have at
tempted to trap him on log by re-
moving the pile of mud placed there
before and setting trap in its place.
The beaver Is too sharp for that, but is
easily caught whom the trapper has
learned how.
1t is an impression with many that
the beaver uses his hcoad, fiat tail as n
trowcl and to carry mud, etc, to build
their dams but such is not the case.
They use their short fore legs and
paws to carry up mud aud grass from
the bottom of the lakes they inhabit,
aud make piles of mud and grass. such
as settles to the bottom on the logs
that lay out from the shores. The
writer was never able to learn the
object Of this, but presumes they found
some article OF food in 1t.
Their food consists, mostly. OF the
bark of the willow and cottonwood.
which they cut down and cut into
sticks about four feet long, and. by
some process known only to the beaver
himself. they will sink to the bottom Of
the lake or bayou, and there they re-
main until needed for use. They also
will cut down the white ash. The
writer Of this measured white ash
that was nearly cut down that meas
ured twenty inches in diameter.
What their object was in this is in-
definite. as it was not near any dam
and could not be used for any purpose
except for food. The beaver makes an
interesting pet. They are easily tanned,
are entirely harmless. and have very
decided propensity TO build dams. II
they can get the material they will
dam ut the least provoc alton. or rather
opportunity. There IN no danger of
their being worried by dogs, as one
old beaver, however peaceable, would
make bulldog pale with envy at the
way he can use those cutting teeth
when the occasion requires.
The writer expects to pass the win
ter in beaver country and try To
bring home few young beaver in the
spring.
In localities where they are not
hanted or trapped there would be no
trouble to get litter of young ones,
but such localities are rather scarce at
present unless one goes well up toward
the Blackfoot reservation. and there
are few hunters that care about endur-
ing the hardships of winter in that
locality"

The old theory that prime mutton
can only be had from and 4-year-old
wethers has exploded, says Scotch
sheep breeder. Indeed. 2-year-olds
now are rare. One.year-olds seem to
be growing more numerous every
year. and are becoming the staple
mutton OF the country, notwithstand-
ing it was once thought that sheep
could not be put in first-class order at
that age. Everybody goes in for early
maturity, aud probably it is only by
so doing that matchmaking can be
made TO pay excepting, Of course, in
the cases OF old ewes, which make up
a proportion OF the fat sheep killed
every year. and which may, under
certain circumstances, leave good
profit for fattening.
Nothing is more certain than that
the age at which sheep can be fatten-
ed is being constantly lessened. Dur
ing recent years the fat stock clubs
have been compelled to entirely re-
cast their prize lists. Glasses of lambs
have been instituted, and they have
become the leading feature among
sheep classes.

Hints for the stable.

Nothing in the ordinary surround
Ing OF horse can be so injurious as
the absence OF good ventilation. Any
number OF horses are kept In places
where no ventilation exists; and in
many places where put in by WE'LL
meaning hand, one finds them stuffed
up with straw and hay. Now, when IL
Is remembered that horse breathes
much stronger than man, that the
exhalations from his skin and else
where are so much greater than from
any human being, IL only stands to
reason that ill-ventilated stables can
not possibly BIO preservative OF the
horses health any more than a foul
smelling room would be OF human
beings health. II n stable owner
wants to know the atmosphere that
his horses breathe. let him be the first
man in his stable of a morning,
when, unless his power OF scent is all
cut gone, he will often have occasion
TO be Mortified at the air that his ami
mails have to breathe. Free ventila-
lion may, at times, have a tendency TO
cause colts TO stare, but that is not
half rs bad as to undermine the horses
health by making him bre athe fonl
air.
There is much diversity OF opinion
ne regards the propriety OF bedding
down horses during the day. Some
good horse-breeders advocate giving
the horse plenty OF litter to stand on,
ut least after noontime. Others like
to keep straw or other litter under
their horses all the time, so that it
may absorb the urine. Yet IL Is
obvious, for the reasons hereafter
stated, that the stables should be kept
free from litter all day long, excepting
where the occupant is required 10
work at night, and must get his rest
during the day. Litter, like charity,
may 'hide multitude of sins" in the
matter Of dirt. Yet that is not the
worst fault. The graver and more re-
prchensive reason is. that 1t acts in
juriously upon the whole system OF
the horse. Goodness is essential for
the growth OF the horn which forms
the casing OF the hoof as we'll as for
the health of the feet yet by keeping
stables bedded down all day. the exact
opposite Is obtained. Horses legs are
apt to swell, their hoofs crack, and
