NO MORE CHASING OF CARS.


General Manager Odell's Device for Locat-
ing Every One Of Them.
The OWNER Of real estate. and, In fact most
kinds of property, does not find any trouble
in keeping it located. but in the case of rail-
road its property, to a large extent. being Of
rolling and constantly moving character, it is
no small or easy undertaking to keep Its where
sbouts definitely fixed, not merely on any par
ticular day. but at any minute or hour Of the
day. Yet the necessity to do this must be ap-
parent to all.
The Baltimore and Ohio, says the Baltimore
American. has Just perfected and introduced
q system devised by Gen. Manager J. T. Odell
whereby the location Of every piece of passenger
rolling stock is known at every minute Of the
day. The system consists Of three separate
boards for the passenger equipment en- route,
coal train records and for the extra cars and
those In repair shops or on foreign roads.
These boards were made at the Mount Clare
carpenter and paint shops, being of solid ash.
finished in old oak. The dimensions of the
boards are, respectively, feet by IL, 10 by Is
and 10 by u: For the through passenger trains,
the local and way passenger trains being other
wise cared for, there is a column for each one.
Down this column are holes for each station,
and in them IL inserted q tin box containing oil
the kilograms received from the train on its
journey, showing the conductor. engineer &C.,
Its times OF arrival, time OF detention, If there
be any, and cause for same. In the box itself
are pegs which at once show be exact makeup
Of the trsin. Thus O comp lete history of the
itinerary Of the train is kept.
The board for extra cars and those in the
repair shops or on foreign roads is very SINH
lar to the one already described. The first
column contains the names Of the various shops,
and II u car is being repaired at any place or o
number OF reserve cars are located at any point
pegs opposite the name Of the place will show
their location and number; az, for example,
should there be demand for a certain number
of passenger cars-the purple pegs-the key
showing the color for each kind would imme-
diatelv indicate how many were in reserve and
at what point or points. The location of the
cars on other roads is similarly kept, there
being different cOlored or marked peg for
each kind Of car connected with o passenger
train.
The board for the coal trade, which is, in
fact, blackboard. IL Of the greatest utility. In
the first place. there are the names OF all the
consignees for coal in Baltimore. then the num-
Der of cars for each consignee at Locust Point
at am. each day ia noted, the mining region
from which the coal came, the ship tonnage of
the whole amount, the amount dumped for each
consignee every day and the monthly total and
finally the number of in transit.
This system is perfectly simple and q novice
can at glance locate any car connected with
the passenger equipment, or, should he be
coal consignee, see at once the extent of his
business. The workmanship is of the highest
order

They raise berries BY the acre and square

Bay City, Michigan, Swept by q Fierce

The greatest confngration which ever visited
Bay City, Mich, broke out at 2 o'clock yester-
day afternoon In the lumber manufacturing
establishment Of Miller 4 Turner. situated on
the west side Of Water street at the foot of
18th street brisk southwest wind was blow
ing at the time. which famed the flames into q
roaring conAagration and swept them across
Water street into the settled district.
The east side Of Water street, where the fire
crossed, was built up with stores, hotels and
restaurants. Nearly all the buildings were con-
structed Of wood and burned like finder. The
wind increased as the flames progressed and in
an hour the flames had consumed Miller 4 Tur-
ner's entire plant, comprising sawmill aslt
blocks, dry kilns and large quantity OF lum-
Der. The flames had also travelled three blocks
to the eastward and had cut a swsth two blocks

with astonishing rapidity. Thousands Of men,
women and children rushed about. all engaged
IN removing furniture and household effects
from before the advancing fnnes. Every
vehicle in the city adapted TO the purpose was
on the ground and. Is always the case at
such times, they charged fabulous prices for
services.
At o'clock about thirty blocks had been
burned over. while twenty more were supplying
fresh fuel 20 the devouring element. When the
chief of the fire department first realized the
extent of the danger he telegraphed to Saginaw
Flint and Detroit for assistance. Saginaw and
Flint responded. each city sending engine
and quantities of bose. Nearly all OF West Bay
City's equipage came 20 the scene of the disaster
and lent such assistance as lay in the power of

CHAPTER III
IN A LAWYERS OFTICE.


Miss Baldcrstone did not go 20 Brigh-
ton that day. Next morning she ar
rayed herself In silk attire and made
descent on Furnival's inn, where the
great law firm Of Colburn & Carslalsc
spun their webs TO catch the litigious.
"Ah, my dear madam, | am indeed
delighted TO see you," Mr.. Colburn OK
claimed, with so much cffusion that hi
manner brought blush TO his visitors
cheek, though she knew that the rotund
little attorney was vcrging on sixty and
had wife and seven grown daughters
at his Richmond villa.
II called on you, sir" she said, with
difficulty rescuing her hand from his
ardent grasp, ITO confer with you con
corning an incident in connection with
the alleged death Of Sir Harry Ora
hnmc."
"Sir IIarry's alleged DEATH What
can you mean, Miss lIaldcrstonc?" The
lawyers face expressed not only sur
prise but dismay there was
even trcmor In his voice as he asked
the question.
81 mean that his adopted daughter
Kate Grahnmc, has received this letter
from him, which you perceive is dated
after the published period Of his de-
cease"
The attorney gave sigh Of relief ns
he glanced Mt the document.
"Gracious how you startled mel" he
said, ncrvously. "You ladies nrc posi-.
lively so mprcssionablc-so ready 60

data, that"
Then you thinl, that there is moth.

rupted.

blunder Of poor Sir Ilnrry's. Why,

dozen witnesses, chiefly natives II il

"Ah, my dear lady, you never knew

In the world to worry others with his
afiiiction, especially one to whom he
was so much attached MS he was TO this
young lady"
There may be something In that"
Miss Baldcrstonc confessed.
And now that we are upon this sub.

yet determined tone, "mny put You
