the south end 1t Is about twenty tracks

on the freight destroyed by fire. Whole
coal trains had been sidetracked In the

JERRY GEORGES pRoNpTxrss
1t Saved Many Lives and Won Him =.
Position.

Jerry George. the conductor of the mas.
senger train which was run into near the
Hackensack bridge, on the Morris and
Essex railroad. by another train on Ian
uary IA. once prevented a wreck and was
generously remembered by the companv
for his promptness In the performance of
his duty. Several years ago he was en-
ployed as brakeman on a short line of
the Morris and Essex road, running into
Hoboken. His train was running slow one
day and had passed through the tunnel
When 1t occurred TO him that the train
was losing too much time, as an express
train was due.
He jumped off his train, ran back some
distance In the tunnel and put torpedoes
on the track. He had no sooner done so
than the express came rushing along, the
torpedoes cracked and the engineer CLAIMED
on the brakes. The train was stopped and
an accident similar to that at Hackensack
was prevented. In order to avoid being
Jun down by the express Mr. George was
compelled to lie down between the track
and the side of the wall, and had barely
time to do this.
For this quick-witted promptitude Mr.
George was made a conductor of a pas
senger train and has had since what rail-
readers term "a pull with the company
the officers holding him in very high es-
TEEN.

A Marvellous Yankee Invention.

Among the innumerable exhibits in the
Manufacturers building at the Worlds Fair
there was one OF such unique design that.
even IN that wilderness OF interesting things.
II attracted much attention. 1t consisted Of
two wax figures. the one a girl sitting. and
the other a man. standing upon a simple
platform. The man was leaning toward the
girl as though he were explaining to her the
design OF a small crescent-shaped piece OF
rubber cloth, which he held in his hand
More nfe-like figures than these were never
seen in Mime. Tussaud's or any other exhi-
bition of wax works in the world. Many
people approached this group and looked
into the mans face, wondering why he stood
silent. When they discovered their error
they bit their lips and moved away, only to
return in little while to see what those
WAX figures meant. The figure OF the man
bore the countenance OF Jared III. Garfield.
the inventor Of the famous Garfield seamless
the prettiest girls in Bridgeport. Conn., an
employe OF the factory at which these
shields are now made by the million, whom
he was instructing how 10 make the article.
The Garfield seamless dress shield itself il
too well known TO need description. OF the
steady growth and the resent enormous
business Of the company that manufactures
them, however. the public knows but little.
ganized in 1852 its capital was $4,000. and
its plant consisted of one small building and
few machines. Today, although the CAPT.
tai has been Increased only TO s250.Oc0 with
a surplus Of another quarter Of a million,
the company manufactures over 4.UO0ou0
pairs of dress shields every year, transact
ing an annual business OF over 100000 and
having head Offices in New York, London
and Paris.
Mr.. Radcliffe Hicks. the president OF the
company, is man of remarkable business
ability His success is due, not more TO the
self-recommerding article he set out TO
manufacture than to his untirtng and IN
genious efforts to make every woman in the
land give II at least one trial In recoenI-

She Would Carry No Coal and Got
Round Damages From Clancarty.

From the Westminster Gazette.
Yesterday. at the Brompton county court.
Capt. Head claimed f15 odd from the Earl
of Clancarty for breach Of agreement in the
hiring Of a furnished house, 40 Lowndes
square. The defendant signed an agreement
to take the house in question from Septem-
Der % last to November IS at the rent of
900 les. This document contained a clause
to the effect that his lordship should retain
on the premises the landlords housemaid
named White, the former paying her IS. per
week for washing and beer and half her
wages G22 per annum), besides providing
her with board. Shortly after his lordship
and his servants took up their abode at 40
Lowndes square the Earl of Clancarty sent
the butler to the housemaid with an order
to make fire in Lady Clancarty's room
White replied that it was not her place to
carry coal while an able bodied footman
was in the house Eventually, however, she
did light the fire, but expressed her opin-
ion that 1t was not her duty to carry coal
His lordship. on being Informed of this.
wrote her note reproving her for what he
termed lmpertinence' and telling her to
pack up and leave the house Later on
Lord Clancarty offered her a months wa ges
IN lieu of notice. but the plaintiff declined
to accept 1t or to leave the house. She stated
mat she was turned out at $50 p. m. by the
aid Of a policeman. One of the neighbors
sheltered her until the morning when she
took train to her parents home in Taun-
ton. Defendant, who was stated to be un-
able at present to leave his residence at
Ballinasloe, Ireland, was represented by
counsel, who stated the defense to be that
the girl on refusing to carry coal behaved
impertinently. and defendant was legally
within his right In discharging her.
His honor said that clearly Lord CLAN
carly had no authority to dismiss this serv-
ant. He (the learned judge) did not think
that In nobleman's family a housemaid
should De asked to carry coal, and he was
OF opinion that the girl had treated his lord
Zip win tne greatest respect possible He
lowed f railway fare and expenses TO Taun-
ION; Judgment was entered accordingly.

Character Building.

From the Ladies' home Journal.
And row. leaving the relations OF mother
and daughter. let US consider what are the
most important lessons 10 teach In charac-
ter building the foundation stones must. of
course, be the principles Of religious truth.
AMI voluntary obedience TO the law of
duty is the ultimate object of all moral
training.
= During childhood the mother is the in
terpreter OF God. and the little ones love
and trust in her inspires her reverence and
obedience. Later. as the mother bird teach
ing her young 10 fly. upbears them on her
own wings until theirs can be trusted and
then gradually withdraws her help, so the
human mother little by little effaces herself
ana leads the young consciences TO feel
their accountability TO God alone.
This is the initial step in self-government
and duty is gradually recognized TO be q
finer thing than seif-pleasing.
A definite direction az this juncture is OF
immense help and cissipates vague nebu-
lous ideas of duty. Carlyle's clarion call,
do the duty that lies nearest YOU, already
the rext win have become clearer" has
been an inspiration to many lives. Tn
questionably the duty that lies nearest
Is that arising from the natural relation
snip as members Of a family. DUTY, like
charity, begins at hcme
gill SHOULD be taught that her part is
TO make the sunshine of the home, 20 bring
cneer Ehu 1oNCusnsss INTO II. She should
especially be led TO recognize her obliga-
tions TO her father, whose love provides for
her comfort and happiness with untiring
devotion and unrenitting effort. Her low
ing little attentions should make him feel
her gratitude, and ''petting'' comes with
charming grace from an affectionate dauRh-
ter. Love does not work for wages" but
II is sorely wounded by fngratitude and
there Is sometimes a tendency to regard
the father merely in the light OF purse
bearer" There Is not q day that she cap
not make lighter and brighter to her fam
fly by nameless acts of kindness and unset
hshness, and she should feel that "a small
unkindness is a great offenSe"
