People told him that the company
must have a prejudice against him for
something. Every one pitied him and
felt sorry for him. Finally we got to
working the same thing on him in other
directions. We would ask him what he
paid for his dinner and his other meals.
Then we would find out that he had been
robbed again. We would buy fruit of
the train box. according to previous
arrangement with him. at a price at least
80 per cent. below what he could get the
same goods for. Then we would go over
and feel sorry for him. and ask hlm if
he had ever been suspected CT being a
Nihilist or of belonging to some othel
denomination that was unpopular that
people picked on him 50, until finally he
got so mad shat large scalding tears of
vexation ran down over his red beard
and fell on the rich tapestry of the car.
His only solace al this time was TO turn
frequently upon his wife and curse her in
corduroy profanity such as is only found
In Russia with fur trimmings on it.
He was the meanest old brute have
seen since Mr.. Bender dropped out Of So
clety, and l was not Sorry TO help him

POINTS ON ROWING
It Is the Most Popular of Sports
Says Malcolm Ford.
HOW FAMOUS OARsMEN TRAIN.
Some Peculiarities Of William O'Connor
and the Late Henry SearIe-How to
Avoid Getting wry Neck, Flat Chest
or Round Shoulders.

Rowing is an exercise which probably
stands higher in popular favor than any other
one form Of physical work. The mere fact
that it can be practiced only in the open air
may account to great extent for its popu-
larity. As an exercise it acts directly upon
the legs, back, shoulders and arms. and about
the only part of the body it does not affect is
the chest, although to a small extent it de-
velops the muscles there. The back receives
the greatest snare of work, and the muscles
on that part of a well trained oarsnan stand
out prominently. One great advantage in
rowing is that both old and young can engage
in it with enough satisfaction to derive pleas
ant recreation. This is not so in games that
require activity, such as running OF jumping,
and although rowing in races is an unusually
severe strain on ones body, still as the
huge majority row for pleasure it is not to
be wondered at that men of comparatively
advanced years are seen skimming the water
in numbers that compare favorably with
those representing younger athletes.

Missouri country will enthusiastically

attend the fair prepared to fguratively
knock out the eye and gather in the
Etruscan pelts of the great nations of

California, among other salient feat
ures, is the proud pOssessor of what is
called an average rainfall. Every child
even knows what it is now, what it was
in 70 and as far back as history extends.
Fourteen to sixteen inches will do the
business in agricultural districts very
well, but this year it has been from 40 to
10 inches, according to the locality. The
Santa Clara valley has wetness enough
to last for four years, and yet only in
low parts of the country will crops be
delayed or injured by the great rainfall.
asked a well known railroad man the
other day what he thought would be the
general effect on business if the govern
ment should take charge of the railroads
and telegraphs. He said he thought it
would be anything but soothing. ''In
such an event." said he, business would
be subverted to politics, l think. On
election day trains would be delayed and
voted in the doubtful states. Washouts
would give large party gains to the rul-
ing powers. kilograms would be affected
more or less in the rapidity of their
flight by their political tenor. and the

get Sunday trains for its mammoth edi
tions, while the opposition paper would
run off the track or be held for orders.
We can get all the corruption we need,
l think, without extending its scope or
possibilities. l would hate to see a Hes
ter street heeler rewarded by being made
a government train dispatcher on my
road. You can educate a postmaster
pretty we'll in four years, but you take
green politician and try to make train
dispatcher or a division superintendent
out of him and you are liable to be bit
terly disappointed in kim"
We had last week On the train style of
passenger common to this free country.
He was a Russian by birth and had made
some money in this country by a happy
accident in the price of rags or the sud-
den advance in old clothes. Doubtless
in his old home across the ocean he had
slept at night on heap Of straw and
eaten the brunette bread of the plain peo-
pie. Here he had made money under
the fostering care of our free institu-
tions and rode in sleeping car. Vul-
garity had early marked him for its own,
and so, even with silk hat and ar over
coat with fur collar on it, one could see
that he would be more at home sleeping
in the loft of a livery stable with his
whiskers full of barley straw.
He found fault with everything, and
in half an hour had won his way to the
hearty and cordial hatred of every one in
the car. He asked me what | paid for
nv berth to San Francisco. | told him,
but | told him two dollars less than the
price because he was well calculated to
call forth that kind of an answer. He
was wild. He wanted to jump off the
train and go back to the office to get his
two dollars back. then posted the other
passengers, and they came and pitied him
till he frothed at the mouth.
