The Boy Who Discovered the "Saw +

The Boy Who Discovered the "Saw By"
A few years ago a green country boy
applied to the superintendent Of a west
ern railway for work, and, somewhat
against the superintendent wish, on &C
count of the danger to life and limb at
tendant upon such occupation, was given
a place as brakeman of a freight train.
On one Of his first trips it happened
that his train met another freight train
at a station where the side track was
not long enough to accommodate either
of them. The conductors were debating
which train should back up to Il point
where they could pass, when the new
hand ventured to suggest that neither
should back; that they could pass each
other by mean of the short side track if
the thing was managed right.
The idea excited a good deal of laugh
ter on the part of the old trainmen, but
the boy stood his ground.
well, how would you go about it?'
asked one Of the conductors, confident
that the lad would sOon find himself
against a stump.
The boy took up astick and traced in
the sand a diagram to illustrate his plan.
''Geod graesoHst' said the conductor,
II believe that will do it,"
And it did do it. Today every train
man in America probably knows how to
''saw by" two long trains on a short side
track, but it is not so generally known
that the thing was never done until an
inexperienced country boy, who is now
the manager Of a great railway line,
worked out the problem for himself

Reasonable Prices.
The Trinity Land company who, it will
be remembered, bought the T. B. Lyon
land near Trinity college only a few
weeks ago, have already had the property
laid off and plated into nice streets and
lots, and are now ready TO sell the lots to
any person desiring to build. 1t is the
intention of the company L build up a
nice community out there. Lots will be
sold reasonable, as it is not the purpose
of this company to try to make a fortune
out OF it. Fer prices, etc, apply to J. B.

French Cookery Terms.

With the best of Anglo-Saxon 1nten-
tons it is sometimes a little difficult to
avoid the use of French terms in cookery
or a bin of fare. Here are some that one
encounters constantly: Relieve is no dish
in particular SO far as the style or pre-
narration IS concerned, but TO
the word remove" and consists of a
dish replacing another, a doubling, so to
speak. of the same purse before going
on TO the next. 1t is therefore not I'M
usual 10 find in a large dinnera relieve de
potage. relieve de rot, de gihier. etc. En-
tree is a made dish served after the fish
or in its stead, where it is not obtain
able, and preceding the rots or roast
meat After the latter comes the entire
NETS, i. E., sweets or buildings.
The term hors d'euvre is the most diff
fcult 10 particularize. When cold it
comprises all side dishes which are really
accessories to the meal. As such they
can be and are eaten indiferently either
before or after the soup: they are always
placed on the table when it is being laid,
and are often left there until the entrees
have been served. They consist Of rad
ishes. olives, caviar, ~boutargue, all man
ner of salt and smoked fish, sardines,
anchovies and a variety of dainties.
Hot hors d'euvre are almost unlimited;
they are very acceptable at large din
ners, and are generally served immedi-
ately after the soup and before the fish;
they are often fried or baked, and are
then usually such things as can be dished
on a napkin, such as patties, rissoles,
croquettes, vol-auvent, etc; obviously,
however, the series can be very much
extended. At ordinary family dinners
they are often served as and instead of
an entree. -PrOvidence Journal.

Pronosed Taxation of Cats.

Civilized governments have raised rev.
enue by taxes on almost every conceivable
thing or occupation, but it has remained
for the authorities of Saxony to suggest q
betterment of the finances by taxing cats.
The move is opposed by a minister of state,
who says:
Aside from the unpopularity Of the tax in the
household, sufficient reasons against it may be
found in the mpossibility of a careful assessment
and correct collection, the difficulty Of determin-
ing the owners, and the prevalent reluctance Of
any one to take charge of stray cats. Again
cat cannot be marked in such 4 way as 10 show
that the tax on it has been paid. The Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty 10 Animals suggests
leather collar. with a record Of the payment on
il. This, however, would hinder the cat in catch
ing rats and mice, and would be likely to hang
fast nails and pegs, thus causing the cat great
misery and eventual death, often from starvation
All references the dog tax must fail of all argu
mentative force, the cat is OF different nature
and cannot be confined within the same limits as
can the dog.

JACOB II. SHARP.

500, 900 has vanished. In fact, little is left
save the bank building, which is estimated
to be worth 5000.
How the men involved in the crash man
aged to get rid of their property is pretty
well shown by the testimony of the wife
of Prettyman's ex-partner, Harry II.
Bishop. The report of the examination
says that Mrs. Bishop, neatly dressed IN
half mourning, with q sealsliin jacket aud
muff, took the stand and gave her name as
Annabelle Bishop. Lawyer Hardy objected
to her evidence because a wife had no right
to testify concerning a business in which
her husband was interested. The court
ruled that the witness should answer any
questions TO show what part of the estate,
if any, was not N the hands OF the as
signee Mrs. Bishop then said that she
owned the property at $40 Park avenue.
She had bought it from A. j. Stinson for
$50, which she had saved from the money
allowed her for household expenses.
She knew Stin5on had bought the prop
erty from her husband, but did not know
he had bought it the same day that he sold
it to her. The property was worth between
$1,000 and 5000 She and her husband
had made deed of the property to Mr..
Stinson, and he had conveyed the deed
back to her She had had the $50 in her
purse for some months, and she bought
the property because she thought 1t was
cheap. The witness also said she owned
some unimproved property on the corner
of Belden avenue and Larrabee street. 1t
