Revolution in Railway Fares.

The government Of Austria has now followed
that Of Hungary in introducing a radical re-
duction in railway passenger fares. Since
June Of this year, according to tho Annals
Of the American Academy Of Political and
Social Science, the new so-called zone system
has been adopted with the result of lowering
rates over 80 Fer cent As the previous rates in
Austria we're already low this means phenom-
enally low prices for railroad Transportation.
A novel feature Of the system 10 that local pas
sengers get relatively lower rates than long
distance passengers When will our American
railway managers zee that low fares mean in
creased travel and higher proats2

II want you to do me favor. See if there

turned and reported her there.
Anybody with her?" he asked.
'Yes; a man and little child"
His face was pale and betrayed great emo
ton and his voice had o queer sound to il as he
considered for moment and then said:
take this pistol am her husband and she
has eloped. / was going to kill the man at first
but have thought better of it."
He entered the room and the guilty pair rose
up and turned pale es he approached. He did
not look at either Of them, but walked straight
up to the child, took her in his arms and went
ont. saying:
'.We haven't any homo now, darling, but We

"Come, mammal" called the child.
'sHush!' he whispered. ssYou have no mothar.
She died two days ago."

MR.. KENNEY's REFUSAL.
He VIII Not Let His Papers Go Out Of
His Possessiou


Mr.. W. J. Kenney, the New York supervisor,
who, as Mayor Grants messenger, brought to
this city the police enumeration books, last
night wrote Secretary to Noble positively refus-
ing to comply with the Secretarys request that
he should surrender the papers he brought to
the chief clerk OF the Interior Department.
II will not" writes Mr.. Kenney, surrender
them to him as your representative, nor to
anybody else. They are public records Of the
city Of New York, and I. as an officer of the
government of that city, am charged with
their keeping. There is no reason apparent to
me why they should be considered by you
or your subordinates out Of the public
sight The papers already submitted to you
are, Of course, intended for such considera-
ton. but these ought to be examined and COM
pared with the records OF the census bureau In
the presence of whomsoever wishes to attend.
wish to be witness of the examination and CON-
parison. not only because / am charged with
the care of the books, but also because am
possessed OF means to guide and enlighten the
other examiners. The results of the examina-
uon and comparison you would, OF course, be
at liberty to consider in solitude. 1 have no
wish to lntrude while you are preparing an
opinion on the merits Of the appeal Of the city
OF New York for recount"
MIR. kenney refers to the tardy compliance Of
the census bureau to Mayor Grants request for
information respecting the boundaries of the
enumeration districts. 1.-The reply" he SAYS.
'was caused by the unwillingness of the census
bureau to let its original boundary descriptions
go out OF its possession. They had to be labo-
riously copied. Mayor Grant has sent the Off
cial records OF the city of New York for your
use, and he merely takes the same care Of them
the census bureau took of its papers by send
ing me as their custodian"
He offers again to take the books to any
place the Secretary may direct for examination.
you have examined and compared the books"
he concludes, there is nothing for you to con-
slider but matters which were within your
knowledge when you made your recent de-
cision. By accepting my offer you will provide
yourself with everything necessary to q full
and final consideration of the case"

% The End of an Errino Son.

Gilbert w. Hazeltlne OF jamestown, N. Y,
who died at Conneaut, Ohio, few days ago,
although but twenty-seven years old, had re-
markable history. At the age Of twenty -one he
shot and killed Mamie Thorpe in Baltimore
and seriously wounded another woman. After a
long trial, in which his mother, a woman of
wealth. squandered q small fortune, he was
found guilty Of manslaughter and sentenced to
eight years in prison. After three years his
mother, who was still working in his behalf, Sc
cured pardon. He went home, and In six
weeks time attempted to kill a woman in
jamestown. After another long trial he plead
guilty, and Judge Van Dusen suspended seu-
tence. Hazeltine agreeing to leave the state,
never to return. That was one year ago. Since
that time frequent reports have been
received Of his escapades. OF late he
has been ill in the west and came
as near home as the agreement of the suspended
sentence would permit, stopping at Conneaut,
Ohio, near the state line, where he sent for his
mother. Always devoting her life to him, she
at once went there, where, after being with
him twenty-four hours, he died in her arms
He was the only son of DIR. G. W. Hazeltine,
one Of the oldest residents of jamestown, at
one time wealthy and widely known. His
money has been used to save his son and today
he is left childless and in poverty.

The Habitat Of Salt Fish.

1t was at an examination in . public school
not far from Boston thss these answers were
evoked: ''The globe is plantation of the
earth, and ''The ocean 10 salt and rivers are
fresh. In the ocean we find salt fish, but iresh
fish grow in rivers" All cross-questioning was
powerless to change this idea that salt fish was
caught in the ocean. OF course, had not the
pupil seen salt fish ct home, and hadn't the
teacher told him the ocean was salt, and didn't
they catch fish in the ocean,

'It's funny how sensitive some people are just because they happen to have red hair" said salesman for boot and shoe house on Main street the other day. 'sNow there is a young fellow who is the head bookkeeper for one of the largest whole sale houses in the city, whose hair is so red that he is afraid to have it cut for fear he'll bleed to death. He wears whiskers, too, and when the wind blows through them they look like fiambeau in torch light procession. He's ready to fight, though, if you say word about his hair. In addition to being good accountant he is an exceedingly wellread man and is posted on nearly all topics. The other day a customer went into the store and called the bookkeeper up to the window in his cage:
 "'Hello, rejoined the bookkeeper.
 Say, understand you've read good many books
 ":Yes, I've read some,' replied the &C., countant, wondering what the man was driving at.
 Fiction ?
 "sYes.'
 'Poetry?'
 "sYes.
 "sScience

 "sWorks on medicine ?

 "sHave oh That's what I like. Ever read Troisch on the ear 2
 "'Yes.'
 Have you read Wilson on the skin 2
 Have you read Holmes on surgery !? "'Yes.'
 Have you read Williams on the eye 1? "sYes.'
 "sHave you red hair on the head ?

 "But by this time the man had made his escape down the elevator shaft to the basement, and the accountant went back to his desk and slammed his book down with bang that sent g cold chill up the backs of the other clerks"
