Funeral Reform.


The Protestant Episcopal elergymen Of
Baltimore and its vieinity have issued q
very particular address to the members
OF their congregations, with reference to
certain customs Of funerals, which should
commend itself everywhere for its CON-
mon sense and thoughtfnlness- There
can be no doubt that f2shion and tradi-
ton are often made 10 play conspicuous
parts in an attempt to show respect for
the dead. and that funeral is frequent
" robbed Of much Of It's sOlemnity BY os-
tentatious display The clergymen in
question have in their address confined
themselves strictly TO matters which, as
they rightly say, involve the health Of
both the clergy and the laity. While
deprecating any action that might imply
disrespect to the dead. they call atteD-
ton to the habit Of men removing their
hats when body Is carried from the
house. as vel As when the friends are
gathered at the grave. Such an act, as
they wen say, Is not always necessary in
order % show respect and health has
in many cases been seriously affect

custom might possibly shock the sensi-
bilities Of some persons, Yet in winter or
in iuciement weather the practice might
well be discontinued.

standing in cemetery during long

Facts About Our Railroads

To gather the sts tisics from the great
corporations which. operate the American
railwsys Is not a simple work Of day or
%, bat takes time It Is only Just nos
that we know, from the government Te-
ports, what the railway busi ness amount
ed to for the year ending June 50, 1880,
eis hteen months ago The mileage at
tnat time was l6j, ,J97, an Increase during
the year Of 5S3S miles. This Increase, IL
is of interest to note, was Creates
N tiat group OF St ties formed BY
Kentucky, tennessee, Mississippi, Al
ALBANIA, Georgia, and Florida, where were
built during the year 1870 miles, or .
pr cent, Of the whole incresse. In the
States Of Georgia the increase was 4ss
miles, and this was more than in any
other state in the Union
These roads are owned and operated
by 1877 companies, but about on @haif Of
the mileage is operated by forty com
panies- The gross revenue OF tho - roads
for the year mentioned was 81, ,05I 81, $50
but 50 per cent of this revenue W : divid-
ed among seventy five roads. La - read
must do cheaper work than sua Ter ones
as these seventy five roads carr led 81
per cent Of the freight. To oper ate the
railways required the services OF 1ias5nl
men. This was an increase OF -, ,,llS men
over the previous year, and added an
average Of 20 men to the Operat ng force
on every 100 miles Of road in the country
In arriving at the eaPitali 2HOu Oi

The capitalization for this Mileage Is
