Gunrher, the first bishop. had been CAN

years after his elevation to the new

An Odd Hallway.

"Onc Of the queerest railroads any
where in the country" said the Rev. D.

line that runs from South Ontario, in
San Bernardino county, where live.
The line is seven miles long. A span OF
stout mules draw the car up over the
road. There is nothing singular about
that, but it comes in on the return trip.
'.The seven miles nrc on tilt all the
way, although the track does not look
like it. SO when the car starts back the
mules get on and take ride. the car

The mules enjoy it too. They ride there
in as self satisfied a way as any other
passenger, and tho view seems equally

1t is the seven miles Of street railway
that connect the two.
''The way they get the mules aboard
is this: There is Il little truck under the
car, and it is pulled out, becoming an
adjunct to the regular passenger depart

supper.
THE cook set himself seriously to

Not n Fair Sample ofthe Sex.

A man who has returned from trip
abroad says that women, as a rule, do

of them even state the regulation tip
which it is best to give the steward-ten
Shillings-though twice that amount is
more often the rule, and it's worth it.
Women, it is said, invariably either
overdo this, and spoil the servants by
raising their ideas, or underdo it SO amaz-
ingly as to be absurd. suppose it is

shaven lips when they could grow mus

continue to spend hours every dnyin
training the hair on their upper lip,
when it doesn't make them look any

their sweethearts by scratching their
cheeks, when it prevents cigar being
smoked more than half through, and
when it shows. a horrid propensity for
getting mixed up with the food?
don't think mustaches are. orna-

when workmen were excavating u cnt
on the Humeston and Shenandoah rail
way, they found a Stone image about
eight inches in height imbedded in the

the image may be said to be in a squat

resting upon the bent knee. Two horns,
each about an inch in length, adorned
