Rip Railroad Deal.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 1S.-A railroad deal
of considerable significance is in progress
and it is thought it will be fully consum-
mated within short time. The deal is
the securing of separate right-ofway
into the city by the Frisco railroad, to
be accomplished in conjunction with the
Kansas City and Colorado railroad The
Colorado at present owns its right-of-
way as far as Forsythe Junction, from
which point it comes in over the Wa
bash. 1t is proposed that the Colorado
and the Frisco come in over the same
track to connect with the Merchants
Terminal at Seventh and Gratiot

its Importance, the prince decided that
the great financier must not be allowed to
throw away the opportunity to acquire
distinguished husband for his daughter
Helen, and he accordingly concluded to
kidnap the object of his affection. IN
fortunately for the success of his plan, the
prince indiscreetly wrote to Mr.. Bassford
offering to make him partner in the trans
action provided he would call for Miss
Gould and induce her to enter carriage,
which would Immediately whisk them off
to train in Jersey City. Mr.. Bassford
told the police and they in turn notified
George Gould, who declined to order the
crank's arrest. At Miss Gould's reception
detectives who were present kept a sharp
lookout for the prince, but he discreetly
absented himself. He probably came to
the conclusion that it would not be judi
cious for him to attempt to skip out with
Helen" as he iuelegantly expressed it
some time ago.

Comforts of Railway Travel.

London Truth contrasts the luxury Of
railroad travel in Germany with its numer-
Gus discomforts in England. In Germany
the passenger on a long journey has ample
opportunity for obtaining meals which are
served in excellent style, either ut the sta
tions or in dining cars; refreshments of
good quality are brought to the carriages
at intermediate stations; the carriages are
well warmed, comfortable and supplied
with lavatories, while in England, accord
ing to Truth, neither at the landing
place nor in the train is there so much AS d
cup of coffee to be had, and man has to
travel on in cold, comfortless train, with
out any prospect of food until he reaches
London In the United States, however,
the acme of comfort in railroad travel is
reached. Finely furnished and comforta-
BILE dining, sleeping and smoking cars, with
bathroom, barber shop, etc, go to make up
the palatial vestibule trains now in use on
the principal roads.

The Linen Washing Question.

At a recent meeting in London the Brit
ish National Laundry association debated
the question, Does France wash linen
better than EnglandW The conclusion
reached was that the life" of a starched
shirt bosom is 50 per cent. longer in France
than in England, being three and two days
respectively. The association, however,
periodically attempted to explain away
Britain's apparent disadvantage by at
tributing it to the frequent fogs and smoky
chimneys, which are permanent institu-
tions in England.

HANDSOME HELEN GOULD.
She Makes Her Social Debut and Is the
Object of IA kidnapping Plot.


Object of "a Kidnapping Plot.
Miss Helen Gould eldest daughter of the
multimillionaire Jay Gould, has had an
exciting time recently. She was given
magnificent coming out reception, and two
or three days later the details became
known of a plan to abduct her. Miss
Gould, however, seems to be girl of re-
markahly strong common sense and
while she regrets the unpleasant notoriety
of the kidnapping plot she has not permit
ted it to disturb her equanimity in any
way.
Miss Gould's reception drew to her
fathers palatial residence, at the corner of
Fifth avenue and Forty seventh street,
New York, most of the wealth and fashion
of the town. Hundreds of electric bulbs
and gas jets lighted up the two spacious
parlors, which, under the manipulation of
the florist and other decorators, looked like
avertable bower of beauty. The debutante
stood directly opposite IA tall mirror near a
basket of scarlet orchids, and there received
more than 500 friends She was assisted by
her charming sister-in-law, Mrs. George
Gould edith Kingdon), once member OF
Augustin Days theatrical company.
The more serious event which has caused
Miss Gould to be spoken of recently would
be amusing were it not for the fact that re-
cent occurrences have tended to confirm
/ the theory that crank, no matter how
harmless his vagaries may appear, is apt
to develop dangerous symptoms without
the slightest warning.
A fellow who calls himself Prince Won
Michaels, seems to have become imbued
with the idea that Jay Gould, having no
son-in-law, needs one, and that he, Prince
Won Michaels, is the very individual re-
quired. AS Mr.. Gould did not appear to
be able to fully grasp the situation in all
