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 inventina
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-
ell. What is known as the new standard
time" was adopted by agreement by all
the principal railroads Of the United States
at II o'clock noon on Nov. IS, 1888.
The system divides the continent into
five longitudinal belts and fixes 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
sixtieth meridian. The Canadas, New
England, the middle states, Virginia and
the Carolinas use the seventy fifth merid-
ian, which is that of Philadelphia; tbs
states of the Mississippi valley, Alabama,
Georgia and Florida and westward, in
Guiding 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
intercolonial 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 the 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 the time
standards used by the railroads from 90 tc
3, a great convenience to the railroads and
the travelling public.-Detroit Free Press.

fire destroyed almost all that has beed ac-

The city had no lire appartas. buckets
were scarce ard wells scaTcer still and the
frantic people could but look at the de-
youring flames in helpless horror.
The flames were fought inch by inch
with buckets, the flesh OF the brave fight
Frs being blistered in work. A sudden
shifting of the wind 10 the northwest
saved the city from total destruction. Be-
fore the flames were got under control,
however, the magnificent Arlington hotel,

railroad contractor, at cost Of $4,000,
was total loss, and two score guests were

fell exhausted almost in the flames, but
was quickly rescued by brave friends aud
escaped with slight burns.
The origin of the fire is believed TO be in

the city, rushed 10 his door when the first
alarm WAS sounded and saw three horse
men riding rapidly southwark along an
unused street, but before he could get
down town the men bad disappeared.
