STANDARD AND LOCAL TIME.
Geographical Local Of the Five Longitude
nal Belts In This Country.

With the enormous increase of railway
travelling the necessity arose for inventing
some method Of counting time which
should avoid the complications arising
from the Use of local mean time, which
varies with every mile of east or west trav
el. What is known as the new standard
timo" was adopted by agreement by all
the principal railroads Of theU United States
at IL o'clock noon on Nov rs, 1883.
The system divides the continent into
five longitudinal belts and fixes a merid
ian of time for each belt. These meridians
are 10 degrees of longitude, corresponding
To one hour of time, apart Eastern Maine,
New Brunswick and Nova Scotia use the
sixtleth meridian. The Canadas. New
England, the middle states, Virginia and
the Carolinas Use the seventy-fifth merid
ian, which is that of Philadelphia; the
states of the Mississippi valley, Alabama,
Georgia and Florida and westward, in
cluding Texas, Kansas and the larger part
Of Nebraska and Dakota, use the nine
tieth meridian, which Is that of New Or
leans.
The territories of the western border OF
Arizona and Montana go by the time Of
the one hundred and fifth meridian, which
Is that of Denver, and the Pacific states
employ the one hundred and twentieth me
ridian. The time divisions are known as
intcrcolonial time, central time noun
tain time and Pacific time. A traveller
passing from one time belt to another will
find his watch an hour fast or too slow,
according to the direction in which he is
going. All points In any time division
using the time of tho meridian must set
their timepieces faster or slower than the
time indicated by the sun, according as
their position is east or west of the line.
This change of system reduces tho time
standards used by the railroads from 53 TO
8, n great convenience 10 the railroads and
the travelling public. Detroit Free Press

GREAT STALLION RACE.
Directum Won the First Heat From
Arion and Nelson.
By The Associated Press.


MYSTIC PARK, MEDFoRD, Mass, Sept.
28.-One OF the largest audiences ever
gathered beside New England race track,
filled Mystic Park this noon to
witness the great stallion race
In which Directum, Arion and Nelson
contest for a purse OF $4,000. The track
is in splendid condition, and the only
drawback to perfect racing day is cold
wind, which makes the wearing of heavy
wraps necessary to comfort.
The second heat I'm the 2:30 class was
won by X. L., with Sebrino second and
Maud Karr third. Time 2:20h.
The pools for the great stallion race
opened with Directum, the favorite, by
to 1. Nelson was bought freely at to 8,
and Arion sold at 2 to3.
Arion came to the track few minutes
after o'clock and was loudly cheered. A
few minutes later, Directum put in
an appearance and five minutes
behind the favorite came Nelson
greeted by enthusiastic cheering.
A light east breeze was blow
ing as the horses lined up for the first
heat. The first heat in the great race was
made in 2:12. Directum came in first,
Arion second and Nelson third.
Directum wins second heat, Arion sec
ond, Nelson third. Time 2;l0.

THE HIGH SCHOOL SITE.

The committee on education has thor
oughiy investigated the question OF land
values in the neighbornood of the High
School, and have found that the Sec
tion lying between Summer and Winter
streets, extending south from the present
school building to Broad street, could
not be purchased by the city except for a
sum SO large that IL would not be advis-
able to expend and the committee has also
come to the conclusion there Is not room In
the High School yard in which TO build
an addition. Both of these schemes,
however, were urged in the Board OF
Aldermen this morning by members
who are not altogether favorable
to the site proposed by the COM
mittee between Pearl and Winter
streets. The objection TO that site was
that as high school on the East Side
building in the vicinity OF Summer
street would be nothing but a temporary
affair anyway, and that it would involve
the expense OF hiring another corps
of teachers from principal down to the
last assistant in the lowest room, two
objections which the committee meet
with the assurances that in the first place
not be necessary as one entire
department with its teachers
will be transferred from the old building
to the new, thus providing for the 500
hlgh scbool pupils who can not find ac-
commodation in the building TO which
their grade entities. And furthermore, it
will not be temporary affair
as the increase i'm high school
attendance every year is sufficient
to warrant the assertion that by next
September there will be enough scholars
to fill both buildings and the desirability
for general high school on the East
side still exists.
The committee on education Is heartily
in favor OF the East Side project and will
advance IL as soon as advisa BILE.

BACK YARD THIEVES.

The police in different parts OF the city
have been notified quite often of late, that
clothes from lines in back yards and from
entries have. been stolen. The police are
of the opinion that the stealing is done
by travelling junk peddlers for in num-
Der OF cases they have been the last seen
in the vicinity before the goods were stol-
EN-. The police claim that the law in re-
lation TO junk peddlers is frivolous. for
they say an officer must find them buying
and then selling an article before they can
be arrested, one we'll known official wants
all peddlers to wear badge similar to
the newsboys and boot blacks. This won id
