RAILROAD NEWS.
Matters From Here and There Concerning the
Great Corporations.

The Hagerstown Globe says that
Harvey Hickman has been very
anxious for two weeks past regarding
his voice. He is employed on the
Norfolk and Western Railroad as
engineman and has always rejoiced in
strong, manly voice. About two
weeks ago, without notice or his con-
sent, the full, strong tones advanced
to an extraordinarily high pitch and
the volume was so greatly reduced
that he could be distinguished at a
short distance only. His disability
was so decided that it effected his
qualification for railroad work and he
was obliged to lay off temporarily.
Failing to correct the trouble, he has
gone to John Hopkins University,
Baltimore, to place his case in the
hands of a specialist, in the hope OF
having his voice restored to normal.
Peter Compton, a brakeman on the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, met
with a frightful accident at Martins
burg last Friday. He was assisting
to shift cars, opposite the Hannis Dis
tillery, and falling under one of them
was run over. Both legs were so
badly crushed that amputation was
necessary. He died a few hours after
the operation was performed. Mr.
Compton was aged ffty-eight years.
He leaves a wife and four sons. His
home was at Brunswick.
Some time ago Conductor Samuel
McGinniss struck Theophilus Barger

latter was riding on a B. &. o. train

has just awarded him $3.50
Several of the Oldest conductors on

opposition from her two grown-up,

their mother should not make a second
marriage and they would prevent it..
The two old people put their heads
together and eloped, with the result
above described. They will visit a

stores. Now, tell me by what law OF
justice you compel man to shut the
door Of his store while you keep open
the door Of your worldly establishment.
May 1t please your honors, judges OF
the supreme court, II You give to secu-
lar places the right to open on the Sab
bath day, you have to give, at the same
time, the right to all commercial
establishments to be open, and to all
mechanical establishments to be open.
II II is right in the one case 1t Is right
In all the cases.
But we are told that they must get
money on Sabbath nights In order to
pay the deficits Of the other nights OF
the week. Now, in answer to that, l
say that II men cannot manage their
amusements without breaking the
Lords day they had better all go into
bankruptcy together. We will never
surrender our Christian Sabbath for
the purpose of helping these violators
to pay their expenses. Above all my
confidence is in the good hand OF God
that has been over our cities since their
foundation. But I call this day upon
all those who befriend Christian prip-
ciple, and those who love our political
freedom, who stand in solid pbalanx in
this Thermopyle of our American his
tory; for l believe as certainly as l
stand here that the triumph or over
throw of American institutions depends
upon this Sabbatic contest.
Bring your voices, your pens, your
printing presses and your pulpits into
the Lords artillery corps for the de-
fense of our holy day. To-day in your
families and in your Sabbath-schools
recite: Remember the Sabbath day
to keep il holy" Decree before high
heaven that this war on your religious
rights and cradles Of your children
shall bring ignominious defeat to the
enemies of God and the public veal.
For those who die in the contest bat
tling for the right we shall chisel the
epitaph: These are they who came
out of great tribulation, and had
their robes washed and made white in
the blood Of the lamb" But for that
one who shall prove in this moral crisis
recreant to God and the church there
shall be no honorable epitaph. He shall
not be worthy Of burial place in all
this free land; but the appropriate in
terment for such a one would be to
carry out his remains and drop them
into the sea, where the lawless winds
which keep no Sabbath may gallop over
the grave of him who lived and died a
traitor TO God, the church and the free
institutions of America. Long live the
Christian Sabbath. Perish forever all
attempts TO overthrow II.

HISTORY IN TREES.
They Are Said TO Retain u Record OF
Weather Conditions.

They Are Said TO Retain a Record OF
Weather Conditions.
IL has been found that the rings OF
growth visible in the trunks of trees
have a far more interesting story to
tell than has usually been supposed.
Everybody knows that they indicate
the number of years that the tree has
lived: but Mr.. J. Keuchler, Of Texas,
has recently made experiments and OBJ
servations which seem TO show that
trees carry in their trunks record OF
the weather conditions that have pre-
vailed during the successive years OF
their growth.
Several trees, each more than one
hundred and thirty years old, were
felled, and the order and relative width
If the rings OF growth in their trunks
we're found TO agree exactly.
This fact showed that all the trees
had experienced the same stimulation
in certain years and the same retarda-
ton in other years. Assuming that
the most rapid growth had occurred in
wet years, and the least rapid in dry
years. II was concluded that out Of the
Dne hundred and thirty-four years COW
sred by the life Of the trees, sixty had
oeen very wet, six extremely wet,
Eighteen wet, seventeen average as to
he supply Of moisture, nineteen dry,
eight very dry and six extremely dry.
But when the records OF rainfall run
ming back as far as 1910 were consulted,
t was found that they did not all agree
with the record of the trees. Still 1t
.ould not be denied that the rings in
the trunks told a true story Of the
weather influences which had affected
the trees in successive years.
The conclusion was therefore reached
that the record Of the rings contained
more than n mere index Of the annual
-ainfall: that IL showed what the char
acter Of the seasons had been a. to sun
shine, temperature, evaporation, regu-
larity or irregularity Of the supply Of
moisture, and the like: in short, that
the trees contained, indelibly imprinted
In their trunks, more than one hun
ired years of natures history, n his
tory which we might completely de-
cipher IL we could but look upon the
lace of nature from trees point Of

The Tagawa Coal Mine is
located in Fukuoka Ken in
the Island Of Kinshui, Japan,
and was discovered about
twenty years ago. It was
owned by the government
and mined simply for the
governments use.
Great improvements, how
ever, were made since it was
sold to a corporation about
six years ago, by importing
mining machinery from Eu-
rope and America.
Tagawa Coal is used more
than all other japanese Goals
in the following countries:
