A Railroad ON Stills.

Probably the most unique railroad
ever built in this or any other country
was the Bradford and Foster Brook Line.
1t connected Bradford and Derrick City,
Pennsylvania, and was only four miles
long, but did an immense business DUR
ing the boom days in the oil regions.
1t was built in 1877. and two years
later went down in u smash that killed
a number of people. The road was APP
propliately nick-named the "Peg-leg"
from it's peculiar construction, for it was
built on stills, IL the passengers en-
tered the cars from the second stories of
the stations. There was but one main
rail, which was of iron, but there were
two auxiliary wooden rails. The main
rail rested on strong wooden beams, sup
ported by massive st%anchions, strongly
braced. Two feet below the top beam
We're two wooden rails eight inches in
width, which We're securely nailed to the
supporting stanchions. The wooden
rails We're mainly for balancing purposes.
The height of the odd little road varied
from twelve to twenty-five feet, accord
ing to the lay of the land in the valley
through which it was built.
Without this elevation the scheme OF
the inventor would have been impossible.
The cars fitted on the rail like saddle
bags, hanging down on each side, and
We're really two-story cars, the upper
portion being used for passengers and
the lower story for freight.
The grotesque looking train was
headed by two engines connected with
each other, one on each side of the
main rail. the two balancing like the
cars. When the fireman put OH more
coal he was obliged to descend to the
furnace by u ladder. The engines and
which protludcd through the floors into
wooden hoods put OH to prevent their
damaging passengers. The ears were
narrow, and the main rails were broad.
Whenever the car tilted, side wheles
caught the wooden rails and aided tc
preserve the equilibrium of the train.

dined with us on board the Phoenix
and a very pleasant fellow he seemed.
He told us that his Jurisdiction ex.
tended over an enormous extent OF
country, which, ON consulting the
map. we found to be no less than five
times the size of Great Britain, ex.
tending right away to the Arctic
Ocean-an awful and desolate tract,
which he was obliged to visit twice D
year. During the winter, he said,
the cold was SO intense that at times
he had experienced as much as 40 de.
grees of frost Reaumur)! We could
not help telling him that he looked
remarkably we'll in spite Of all these
h%ardships.
The next morning a messenger
came to the ship expressly to ask il l
would go ashore and take. Il sketch OF
the village priest and his family.
This was rather a compliment, so L
could hardly refuse, more especially
as Il few minutes later the worthy
man himself arrived to show me the
way. The priest was a person of re-
markable appearance-tall, slim. and
exceedingly g~ood-lOoking, in an effem-
mate sort of way-with a long, fair
beard and flowing locks. l wanted
his portrait. We went up to his
house. and l was presented to his wife.
Fortunately l had brought my cam
era with me, so to please him / took
them all in a group. and shuddcred to
think how it would look when dcvel-
oped. l then asked the gentleman if
l might make Il separate study of
him. and he not only said he would
be very pleased TO let me, but even
offered to come on board to sit for
me. So, during the morning, l made
a careful pencil study of him. While
doing it. to my establishment the
police officer, who had come to have
a look at what l was doing, asked me
if / would like to do him afterward.

the first. 1t would not be long after
Bob entered a city, with some big
tale of business prospects, before he
would begin to excite the suspicious
of some mi with whom he came in
contact and before he was hardly
aware of it he would be damned out
of town.
Thus he went to Chicago; but his
same old difficulty, "down on his
luck" began to torment him there
and he decided upon a bold scheme
to obtain money. He became &C.
Quainted with a woman named Kate
Mclaughlin, or Kate Burton, as she
called herself, who was not of the
highest morals. He and Kate put
their heads together and it was not
long afterward that MI. Musgrave
took out life insurance policies
amounting to So, 900. Next Mr.. NJ.
was in receipt CT a long box, which
excited the curiosity of those of his
friends" who saw it. Then Bob an
nounced his intention to take up his
abode in an old deserted cabin near
Terre Haute, Ind. There was one
friend who had always stood by Bob
and that wa Charley Trout. When
Bob went to Terre Hautc and to the
cabin Trout informed the good people
thereabout that Bob had ensconced
himself there and persuaded two men
to go and see him. One or two days
later the old cabin was reported to
have burned down. Upon searching
the ruins the charrcd bones of a skel-
eton were found and the report that
Bob Musgrave had been burned.
Then it was learned that some one
had bought a skeleton and ordered
it to be sent to the address to which
the long box had come and thus that
mystery was cleared up. Next Mus.

it was cen that the bones discovered
in the old hut were of the fake skele-
ton bought by him. Bob was at last
arrested on the charge of attempting
to swindle the insurance companies

The Dark Continent.


The population of Africa, accord
ing to the latest and most reliable
estimates, is given at 100000 600, or
fourteen inhabitants to the square
mile, while the population of the
three Americas is given at 121, 7l3, 600,
or eight inhabitants to the square
mile. 1t must be remembered that
while explorers tell us of large dis.
tricts in Africa that are scantly PEG.
pied. there are also vast regions
densely populated of which but few
persons have ever heard. 1t may in
fact be said that only the fringe OF
the Dark Continent has as yet been
reached after 1000 years of intermit.
tent exploration.

A Glimpse at u Picturesque Out-0f-the-
Way Village In Siberia.
Cur arrival at the village of Werch-
heimhakskoi was hailed by a salute
fired from Il small cannon ON the hill
side. and the villagers crowded forth
to have a look at us, writes Julius NJ.
Price, the English artist, who is TAX
ing IL trip up the Yenisei River in
Siberia. 1t was a picturesque spot,
and looked doubly 50 in the warm
sunshine. the Oriental-looking little
church, with its white walls and
green cltpolas, standing out in brill
liant relief against the blue sky. In
Il short time the police officer arrived,
accompanied by his clerk and a couple
of Cossacks, and we thus received our
first visit from official Russia.
The Russians, physically, are un-
dOhbtedly a fine set of men; nearly
all l have seen so far have been above
the average height. This officer
topped them all, for he must have
stood at least 6 feet 4 inches, and
with his tall astrakhan kept and long
fur coat seemed a huge fellow, and a
very g%ood-looking one to boot.
The village certainly was a great
improvement on any Of the others we
had yet come to; the hoases, even,
had some pretense to architecture,
and looked very pretty with their
quaint wooden porticoes. Dogs, as
usual, seemed more numerous than
inhabitants, and had it not been that
I knew how peaceful they are, except
among, themselves, 1t would have re-
quired some nerve to pass through
them, for the row they made was
simply awful.
