LAST COACH FROM KIMBERLEY.

They were accustomed to the ancient
style of transportation, for they were
pioneers and knew not the rush of this
fevered age. Still they recognize that
the change is a benefit. Hitherto the
people of johannesburg have been forced

twenty miles a day from Kimberley, a
distance of 800 miles, or from Natal,
100 miles away. Everything in Johan.
nesburg-even the very wood and gal
vsnized iron, of which so many of the
houses are built-has had to be brought
there by this slow and highly expensive
transport, while to reach the place q
coach journey Of two or three days,
costing from eight to twelve pounds,
had TO be undertaken on leaving the
railway in Natal or the Cape Colony.
Now the journey TO Cape Town, which
Is about $50 miles away. is performed in
sixty hours, thus placing the Rand with.
in nineteen days journey from London.
1t is expected that the population OF
johannesburg, which is estimated by
its sanitary board at 10000, will be still
further augmented, and the influx Of
labor, combined with cheaper living,
should have their effect in developing
the mines and contribute to the reawak-
ening prosperity of the place.

There is a pathos about the phrase TO

west TO keep away from the "pesky rail.
road" He doesn't know the engineer
and conductor Of the great train which
whirls through his little post village,
but he was on the best of terms with
the driver of the coach, who always got
down at the door of the postoffice and
general store, condescended 10 drink at
some one else's expense, and retailed the
latest news and the freshest jokes while
q new team was being hitched up.
The type is familiar both in the east
and the west, but it threatens to die ont,

has it, with other times come other

Perhaps one Of the best posted men
on stagecoaching was James Haworth.

but he was a prominent inquire IN the

Money in an Old Shoe.

II seems that some people have q
mania for concesling valuables in odd
and ridiculously unsafe places. A par
ticularly odd case was brought TO light
recently. While looking over the effects
of the late Alonzo Belts in his room in
Reading, Mich, sister found in a
cheap memorandum book these words,
"You will find money in an old shoe"
of in one side Of the room she found an
old pair Of arctic overshoes, and In
them was q 200 in money, checks and
