How the Electric Headlights Is Now Used
on Numerous Railroads..
The electric headlight is now used on

is interested in southern road, re-
Gently told writer for the Pittsburgh
Dispatch that his company had found
it very profitable investment. The
lights cost about three hundred and
seventy-fve dollars each, fixed on the
locomotive, and they cost no more
than the oil light to maintain. The
old headlight would not throw its
light on very dark night more than
one hundred and fifty feet, and it is
impossible for an engineer to slow
with the emergency brake. Quite an
item in the expense of the road used
to be claims for cattle killed. During
the rainy season the lands along the
line Of the road become very wet-in
places they are entirely covered with
water and the cattle come upon the
track seeking some dry spot on which
to sleep. When the old headlight was
in use as many as thirteen cows have
been killed at one time and the damage
claims have sometimes amounted to
over one thousand dollars per month
Now the electric light throws its rays
from half to threequarters Of mile
in front Of the engine. DISTINCTIONS
can be easily seen at that distance and
some of the engineers insist that q
switch disk can be more easily made
out by it at night than in the daytime.
The lights, moreover, do away with
switch lights, which is quite saving
to roads that use them to any great
extent Mr.. Sparks says that the en-
gines using the electric headlights on
his road have never killed COW, and
he IS confident that the saving in stock
claims alone will more than pay for all
the headlights on the road within two
years $50

The Mouiik Gear.

Alexander III. seems determined to
live up to his sobriquet of '.the moujik
car" He has justaafixed his sigma
ture to project of law now being
elaborated by the council of the en-
pire, which is destined to render in
alienable the landed allotments Of the
peasants. The object Of this measure
is, of course, to prevent the seizure OF
the land for debt by the money lenders,
whom he regards as the principal cause
of the present distress and agricultural
depression in his dominions. For the
peasants, when once deprived Of their
lands, lose every interest in the well
fare Of their .'mir, . or community, and
drift away to the towns and cities in
search OF work, where they help to
swell the ranks of the unemployed,
who constitute q permanent source OF

Starvation in Russia.

The peasantry in the northern region
of European Russia are in a pitifully
impoverished condition, which is daily
becoming more acute. The region
most affected covers an area Of not
less than 375, OOO, 900 acres. While the
imperial government is formulating
plans for the commercial and indus
trial development Of this region by the
building Of railroad systems, the local
governors are appealing for assistance
to keep the people from actual starva-
ton. The people have not enough for
bread to last them through the winter.
They are four years in arrears with
their taxes and are hopelessly indebted
to the crown for advances made during
and since the late famine.

YOUNG WIDOW PENSIONERS

: s54ES < ~ }
Capt. Skinner Finds the Old snldlsx
Marketable for 1tatrimony.
United States Pension Agent Skin
ner has discovered that there are many
blus;1ing into marriage contracts with
veterans who have passed the three
score mark. In fact, the captain rather
suspects that the young women who
choose them do so because they have
performed brave service for their coun-
try. and are now being rewarded by q
comfortable pension.
This state of things, in the Pitts
burgh district, at. least, though not
throughout the country, indicates
. that the payment of pensions will fur
nish valuable assistance to many hand
some widows for atleast half q century
to come. The veterans will not survive,
Of course. but many a young widow
will mourn till their departure and
draw their pensions until they die Of
old age, according to the Pittsburgh
Leader.
Agent Skinner has just completed
his report for the quarter ending Jan
uary 4, and also report for the month
of January. The report for the quar-
shows that ~, 595 pensioners were paid,
the amount disbursed being $685.
S64.2S. These payments were all made
in January, and during that month 1865
pensioners were added to the rolls,
while 1874 died and nine widows were
dropped because of remarriage.
This makes net increase of %, and
Mr.. Skinner says that it is due to the
marriage of old soldiers to young wom-
en-. The husbands die and then the wife
gets a pension, sometimes when her
husband did not.
''There is no way of telling from the
records just how many cases of this
kind there are'~ said Capt. Skinner,
but the number must be very consid-
cradle and will cause the pension roll
to remain large for many years to-
come"
Continuing, the genial agent de-
scribed a case Of one of the young wild
ows from a neighboring town who he
had learned was married on January 4,
probably Immediately after getting
her quarters pension.
one COulu nave married at any Gl1ue
and drawn her pension down to the
day OF her marriage. She evidently
wanted the whole amount, which
was $50, and delayed the happy day to
get it, She would have had some diff
ficulty getting her voucher certified
under different name, and for frac-
tional amount of her quarters pay, so
that it was probably on the whole
best to get married on pension day.
FROM the laughing manner in which
Capt Skinner told this stony, it is evil
dent the happy ex-widow would not
have been grudged her little dowry
from Uncle Sam had she announced
her intention to marry Immediately on
receiving it.
The captain did not say so, but it is
probable the government will solve
the question Of increase in the pension
rolls through young widows of old SOL
diers by encouraging them to initiate
the example of the practical lady who
got married on pension day.
