Carefully Managed railroads.

The European railroads are more care
fully managed than ours. l refer TO the
precautionary management, and strange
TO say, greater care Is taken In Italy than
In any other country. On every italian
railroad q section house is built at every
half mile. The section-man resides there
and is responsible for the half mile OF
track under his charge. He Is required to
carefully inspect 1t just before every
train passes by. and Is required to signal
In front OF his section-house to all trains
the condition of the track. One feels
very delightful sense Of security in
travelling on these roads. You see the
section man at each station. standing In
front OF his door waving a green flag,
which signifies that all Is well. Other
roads In Europe have similar systems OF
section inspection, but they are not placed
with such frequency. Most OF the rail-
roads are double-tracked-in fact, virtu-
ally all. The road beds are very firmly
laid in cement. with well packed ballast;
the rails are very heavy, and the engi-
neering Is OF the very best grade; no
cheap work is tolerated; they have no
trestles; every gulch Is spanned by a
solid embankment or an iron bridge;
wooden bridges are as wholly unknown as
trestles; the tunnels are usually lined.
and all the archwork Is OF the very heav-
lest masonry. - Letter in Chattanooga

or late years steps have been taken to
prevent the destruction Of forests by fire
In certain districts OF India. This care
has had one curious result. Cover and
water, which vanished with the timber,
have again become common, and there
has consequently been large increase in
the number OF tigers. For the same rea-
son there has also been an enormous In
crease In the number of wild deer. In ono
sense It is fortunate that the deer have
grown in numbers with the tigers. for the
latter have preyed upon them instead Of
upon cattle and human beings. When,
however, they shall have scared away the
deer, or have become tired OF venison,
they will probably prowl around villages
and play havoc with cattle, besides killing
their man or two.
