Railway Investments.

OF the $4,GSS, ,0O0, 900 invested in rail
road stocks, June 30, 1893, nearly $3,-
900, 100000 or more than 81 per cent,
paid no return on the money for the
year then ended. OF the total lines
"only 5.32 per cent. paid as high as
per cent, only 5.24 per cent paid be-
tween 6 and per cent, only 11,62 per
cent. of the whole paid from to per
cent and the rest paid less than per
cent. if it paid anything at all. The
bonded indebtedness amounted tc So
225, ,6S9,S2l, and 10 3 per cent. of that,
or SG07, i4i ,26S, paid no interest"
1t is n grave error to say that these
investments represent the estates of
millienaires, In fact, majority of
the bonds and stocks of our railroads,
in the east and middle and northern
States, are held by men and women of
modest fortunes, while much of their
stock is owned by poor people. The
stock of the Pennsylvania system-not
including the leased and tributary
lines-is distributed among $4,000 per.
sons. New York Central, that, u few
years ago, was owned by less than soc
persons, now carries the names of H..
600 individuals on its stock register
Delaware, Lackawanna and W, stern
has, for twenty years, been favorite
stock for the investment of moneys OF
estates, and the same is true of many
roads stocks west of Buffalo. New
York Central, that habitually paid
per cent, twenty years ago, now pays
to 6 per cent. There has been an
equal shrinkage in the stocks of nearly
all the great New York Chicago trunk:
caused mostly by the competition OF
water carriage. The tendency is now

being reorganized on u cash basis; and
with all the trimming and wiping out
of stock and bond debts, it will require

The owners of railway property have
not been uniformly fortunate. Thou.
sands have had their fortunes severely
reduced by losses on this sort of invest
ment, other thousands have been re-
duced to bankruptcy, by the same

The few that have acquired wealth
by wrecking processes and other ques-

brought odium on the whole list of

Life Stories in Old Patchwork Quilts.

To me these home made quilts are
chiefly interesting because of the
glimpses they give of the makers and
their lives. Minstres and troubadours,
and the glamour of distance have com
bined to surround the high born lady
of the age of chivalry with halo OF
poetry and romance; but after all, was
the semi-cOnventual existence of the
Lady Margaret, or Elenor, or r sa-
mond of lay or ballad, as she embroi-
dered away her years shut in by thick
castle walls, really as free and rounded
out as the lives of women in American
pioneer days or in country life today?
Is not the lot of the backwoodsman s
wife or daughter in her log house, with
her marigold and larkspur border in
front, and it may be a cluster of tall
sunflowers in the back corner of the
garden, with life of hard work,
homely fare and the simplest joys and
sorrows, far more enviable one than
that of the noblemen of the medieval
castlesY Less sweet and wholesome,
too, by far, was the career which lay
before those same noblewomen than
that which offered itself to our stately
colonial matrons, or that which awaits
those who now toll at our latter day
tapestry, whether they are women in
quiet village homes or in roomy farm
houses, east or west, on valley farms
among the mountains of Tennessee or
North Carolina, or in Southern man
sions, shut away from neighborhood of
busy towns by long stretches of cypress
swamps or pine barrens.
The tale of Penelope patient loyalty
to the long tarrying lord, as he puts
off the clamoring suitors by her vow
never to remarry until the web still in
her loom be finished, might be matched

true story of many an old patchwork
quilt could the poor bits of printed cot

Blufling the Old Man.

The Federal commander General
Nelson had his headquarters marques
set up in the woods in a somewhat Sc
cluded place. Many of the teams in
the supply trains that were daily COM
ing in were driven by men who were
not enlisted, and one evening a driver
was grumbling because his wagon
WASH t unloaded quick enough to suit
him. The man who was receiving the
stuff was practical joker, and point
ing to Nelson's tents, some distance
away, he said to the teamster: Right
over there in those tents is man whose
business it is to unload these wagons,
and he has a lot of fellows there to
help him. You 60 over and tell him
to come on. He'll try to bluff you, but
make him come" The man went, and
finding Nelson sitting in his tent in his
shirt sleeves, he walked in, and, slap
ping him on the shoulder, said: Come,
Ola man, want you. Maybe you
think the old man wasn't surprised,
but he was. He looked up a if he
couldn't do justice to the subject, but
finally he managed to blurt out: What
do you mean, sir?" The soldier said ::
"Oh, come, now, don't be giving me
any of that. I'm posted on you; come
on and help unload them wagons !"
Nelson was nearly paralyzed, but with
an oath that would have broken the
steeple off church he grabbed at his
sword and started for that teamster,
who had started for tall timber. The
old man run that teamster clean out of
sight, and to this day nobody knows
what ever became of him.-Eychange.

Roads rs q Social Enctnr.

The common roads of a country are
at once the means and measure of its
civilization, writes John Gilmer Speed
in an exchange. Without means of
communicating easily and quickly
from one part of country to all other
parts there can be no very widespread
civilization in that country. Neighbor-
hoods and States separated from each
other by natural barriers or bad roads
stagnate in loneliness and are seldom
awakened by common impulses of SYM
pathy. ut is doubtful indeed" says
Prof. Shaler, of Harvard, whether q
sound democracy, depending as it does
on close and constant interaction of the
local life, can well be maintained in a
country where the roadways put a
heavy tax on human intercourse.
