Happy New Year!

That is the wish of the Burlington
Route for the many thousand Northwest
ern people who have travelled over its
lines during 1893 and the many more
thousands who will do so during 1894.
Now a word about the development of the
Burlington system. In 1850. the Chica-
go. Burlington and Quincy Company. the
parent burlington road. operated only
1850 miles. In that year it acquired 1876
miles of the Burlington & Missouri River
in Nebraska. Branch. lines were at once
built to almost all the important towns in
Nebraska. and in. May. 1854. the road
was completed to Denver. Colorado. In
1887, the line was completed to Cheyenne.
Wyoming. the center of a large cattle
trade. To supply coal for the operation
of the Western lines, a narrow guage road
running from Denver to Lyons was pur-
chased, and in 1889 a line was pushed to
New Castle. Wyo.. to take advantage of
large coal fields there. In 1886. the Chi
cago, Burlington & Northern was COM
pleted. giving a connection with ST. Paul
and Minneapolis. In 1891. the road
reached Deadwood. giving access to the
rich mining regions of the Black Hills
and the healing Hot Springs of Dakota.
/ BY control of several Missouri railroads
the Burlington added St. Louis. Kansas
City and ST.. Joseph as. terminal points,
and is now engaged in building a bridge
across the Mississippi above St. Louis.

THE POST OFFICE.


Eckley u. Coke aud O5ners Eorsted in the
Cause.
Between the Commissioners deal" and
the post office struggle the citizens Of town
have plenty material for discussion. There
is nothing Of importance touching the latter
topic. Many infer that Cleveland will hang
up the appointment until after the tariff bill
is disposed Of. This has been his course with
regard to other communities and the people
who hold the belief do not see any particu-
lar reason for a deviation in the Shenandoah
case Cleveland is the Democratic party and
his policy is to enforce his orders first and
make appointments after.
To show the Importance attached to tho
Shenandoah appointment it need only be
stated that Ex-senator Eckley B. Coke and
a number of leading office holders and politi-
clans in the northern part of the state have
been called into requisition and urged to use
their influence on Cleveland for the purpose
Of having him make the appointmeutat once.
Many people are now inclined to believe
that Milt Master stands an excellent chance
for the appointment. The friends Of Quinn
are still confident and Mellcts friends say
the matter is settled; that he has the appoint
ment and the others have not been "in it" at
any time.

As an old woman and a boy about l2 years
Of age, were passing over crossing at Main
and Centre streets at noon to-day the former
hit the latter on the back Of the neck, almost
knocking him face forward to the ground.
The boy turned and hit the woman fearful
blow on the nose with his dst. The blood
poured from the woman's nose for several
minutes. She did not cause the boys arrest.
He was her grandson, she said. The parties
live at Elleugowan. Such a vicious and
heartless boy deserves something more than 3

Antics OF an Elephant and a Dog.

Elephants are queer and interesting
creatures, both in captivity and in their
native wilds. Tip, the ugly Forepaugh
elephant in Central Park, who has the
discredit of having killed several of his
keepers, is extremely and tenderly fond
of little dogs, and with equal fervoI he
hates birds. -
Tips keeper has small fox terrier,
which is to be found almost any day play
ing about the feet and trunk Of the cruel
mammoth as he stands chained short 10
the sunken post in the yard back Of the
elephant house. The dog is one Of the
least of its kind, as Tip is one of the
largest of his.
The terrier usually has a season of run
ming rapidly around and around his no.
torious friend, who watches him with
something really like a twinkle in his
blood-shot eyes. Suddenly the great
flexible trunk shoots out and the dog will
trip over ii, and then goes rolling head
over heels on the ground, whereupon Tip
blows lot Of dust over his own back
probably his way of laughing at the
joke.
He never hurts the dog, who generally
proceeds to "get even" in his own way.
He sneaks up quietly from behind, and
when directly between Tips fore feet
suddenly gives vent to a succession Of
shrill barks. OF course, elephants have
nerves, and Tip gives a start backward,
as anybody would, at which the little
scamp leaps to one side, out OF reach, and
barks fit TO kill himself-his way of
laughing.

The White House.

The Presidents house at Washington
completed its first century last year, its
cornerstone having been laid on October
l3, 1872. The architect was James
Hoban, who, it is said, used the mansion
of the Duke of Leinster at Dublin as his
model. Although the cornerstone was
lald in 1892, the White House was not
finished until eight years later, when it
was first occupied by President Adams.
Maryland and Virginia contributed a
large share of the money used in erecting
the executive mansion-the former giy-
ing ST., ,0O0 and the latter Sl20,000. When
British troops seized Washington. in
August, 1914. and burned the interior of
the Capitol, they also set fire to the Presi-
dents house. The walls, which were OF
dark freestone, were so discolored by
flames and smoke that when Congress in
1915 authorized the restoration of the
building it was painted white, and has
since been popularly known as the White
House.-Harper's Young People.

WOMEN WHO DRINK.
A Glimpse at Low Life in England's
MetrOnOlis

The London Telegraph started contro-
versy recently regarding the liquor habit
among women. One contributor says
that Wynne Baxter, the well-known
Coroner, whose experience of the London
poor from day to day in the East End
constitutes him an authority upon the
darkest phase of the subject, in the course
Of conversation said: Generally speak
ing, the question of drunkenness, directly
or indirectly, enters into half the inquests
which L hold. 1t is treated as joke as a
rule, tor my juries, coming as they do
from the working classes, do not appear
to think anything of it. My usual ques-
ton Is, Was the deceased the worse for
drink?' and the reply given in an uncon-
cerned tonel is, 'Oh, he had had DROP
as if 1t was the proper thing to do.
Il believe there are number of hard
working men who would have good
homes If only they had good wives, but
the women are never at home to meet
them, or have anything ready for them
after their Gays s. work. In many cases
we have the fact stated that the husband
quietly goes to bed when his wife is still
out OF doors drinking with her friends.
Monday is essentially day of drinking.
Many men are totally unaware that their
wives take their husband's Sunday clothes
on Monday morning to the pawnshop,
pledge them and spend the money thus
obtained in drink. On the Saturday when
the man gets his wages the clothes are
taken out of pledge, but they are returned
to the pawnshop on the Monday"
