Exasperating Reason.

A friend of tho poet Shelley says that he was most fanciful in his habit of forming some wild theory and then seeking confir- mation of it in the events of everyday life. If they did not bear him out, he was naturally indignant. One particular en- counter with prosaic Englishman must have been somewhat astonishing to the man, who was not accustomed to poets and their modes of reasoning.
 At one time Shelley saw the zodiac in everything, and as he was passing an inn with his friend he noticed that the house bore the sign of the "Horseshoes. D
 There were four on the sign, and he inn mediately came to the conclusion that they had been handed down from remote antiquity to represent the compartments of the sodiao. He stepped into the house.
 "Your sign is the Horseshoesp !" he said to the landlord.
 ''Yes, sir.'
 ''This sign has always four horseshoes?"
 'Why, mostly, sir.'

WILL NOT DISBAND
The Traffic Association to
Continue.
Superintendent Haydock, 1t Is Said,
Will Succeed Phelps as Train
master of the Coast Division.

The executive committee OF the Traffic Asso-
citation held a meeting yesterday afternoon, at
which the questions of retaining the services Of
Traffic Manager Leeds ana of continuing the
WORK of the association were freely discussed.
1t was, OF course, contingent upon the affirm
alive consideration of the latter proposition
that the Encouragement of Mr.. Leeds hinged,
and that matter, it is understood, was taken up
first
The reports from the agents who have been
soliciting a renewal of membership were OF
much more satisfactory nature than the
executive officers had anticipated, it being re-
ported that nine out of ten of the old members
who had been seen had sigDified their intention
OF remaining in the association. This being
the case. the committee decided to continue its
work, and then the matter of Mi. Leeds re.
engagement Was taken up.
That gentleman was not present, but IL is I'M
derstood that the general expression of opinion
favored the continuance OF the manager In his
present position. His term of office does not
expire until November so.
MIR. Upton said yesterday that the matter OF
securing small subscriptions to the valley road
had not yet been given much attention, as The
association was waiting for the decision of sew
the enterprise.
The shaKe-up recently announced among the
superintendents and other officials of the
Southern Pacific has not yet been completed in
all its details, it would appear, judging from
rumors current about the officers of The COM
pany yesterday
There are no further changes to be made at
present, but 1t seems TO have not yet been fully
decided what disposition TO make OF few OF
tue deposed officials, this being particularly
true OF Superintendent Haydock.
That gentleman resides In Sau Jose, and, un-
der the arrangement announced last SATURDAY..
1t was proposed TO give him the local agency aI
that point. Now, however. it is said that an
other plan Is contemplated by which he Will as
sumo the duties OF trainmaster, and the gentle
man who has filled that position on the coast
division, Mr.. Phelps, will De assigned TO other
duties, the nature CT which has not yet been
determined upon.
There is 10 probability that Mr.. Phelps Will
either sever his connection entirely with the
road or that he will suffer by the change If such
De made, as the head officials look upon him as
very capable man and are not likely soon TO
forget his efficient services during the late
strike
The success attending the running OF trains
at that time was in great measure attributable
to The personal efforts OF Mr.. Phelps, who con-
Quoted the cOmpany's business without bring
ing on any serious conflict with the dissatisfied
employees.

When asked il he had ever talked over
