A Transition or a Crxxes

OF society to literature as it is dis
covery that literature and art, in the
persons OF those who produce both,
may be sources Of amusement, or per
haps, to be just, Of the enlargement OF
the horizon and the improvement Of
the mind. The society mind was never
before so hospitable to new ideas and
new sensations Charities, boards of
managers, missions, hospitals news
rooms, and lodging houses for the IL
hterate and the homeless-these are
not sufficient, even with balls,
dancing classes and teas, OF
the superfuous energies of this
restless. improving generation; there
must be also radical clubs, read
ing classes, study classes, ethical. his
torical, scientific, literary, lectures,
the reading of papers by ladies of dis
tinction and gentlemen of spt cial at
tainments-an unremitting pursuit of
culture and information. Curiosity
is awake. The extreme of social re-
finement and a mild Bohemianism al
most touch. 1t passes beyond the af-
fectation of knowing persons who

RAILROAD Employees In India.

Speaking of railroad wages in India,
| find that section men work here for
from three to FIVE cents day, and
that the roads can get all the men
they want at these prices. Engineers
work on time and distance, and they
are about the highest paid of the rail-
road employees. They get about $40
month while running regularly, but
they can increase this by extra run
ming to $65 and 500 a month. The
Indian railways have no conductors
in our sense of the word. The tickets
are collected and examined by men at
the various stations, and the guard
who manages the trains in other re-
spects has nothing to do with the
tickets. Such guards get about $25
month, and on the smaller railroads
they receive from 81 to $2Oa month.
The most of the guards are natives or
half breeds, while a majority of the
engineers are English. I don't think
the English engineers are as well post
ed as our American ones. ! asked one
of them the weight of his engine. He
stammered and replied that he did not
know. The American engineer can
tell you just what his engine weighs,
how much steam she carries and ali
about her.-Frank G.. Carpenter.

Western Stage Horses.

The old stage teams, which the loco
motive and the Pullman car drove
into an inglorious retirement, were
many of them as fine animals as
money could buy. 1t took horse,
man to select and put them together,
so they would work well, and In this
regard no man ever exceeded Alex
Benham, who was for many years
superintendent of the line from Dem
yer eastward. 1t was said of him that
he could GO into band of horses, Sc
lect four or six, harness them to q
coach and each was in its proper
place. Many of these stage teams be-
came famous all along the line, for
speed, endurance and all the other
qualities which the boys called q
'rattlin team" One of the most noted
Of these four In hands was the Little
Roam" team. They used to run in and
out of Council Bluffs, before the
Northwestern road reached that city.
Then they were sent out on the plains
and gradually worked west, until
they reached Laporte, where they re-
manned until The cheyenne route was
abandoned. They were four straw

in size and possessed of the most re-
markable strength and feetness. It
was pleasure TO see Their. travel.
The last time the writer saw them
was in the summer of 1870, when
they We're on the line between Denver
and Lake Station, then the terminus
of the Kansas Pacific. They went of
like colts.
Twill they run yeta" was asked of
the driver.
'Yes, just as quick as they ever
would" and he snapped his whip and
away they sprang into gait which
sent the old coach rafting along at
ten mile an hour rate. What became
of the gallant little team after this last
stage trip the writer never knew, but
he ventures the assertion that it was
the toughest, gamiest, feetest four in
hand team that ever pulled coach in
harness-Chicago News
