One Day Lost,

In the South Pacific there is small island
where the week apparently consists of six
days. This phenomenon is brought about by
the location OF the island Travellers around
the world are acquainted with the fact that
time is lost while travelling East and gained
while travelling West. The difference in time
in the transatlantic journey alone being
about four hours. This little island
Chatham-is just on the line of demarcation
between times and dates In order to keep
right with the remainder OF the world it is
necessary to skip from noon on Sunday TO
noon on Monday every week in theyear hence
the joke that it is possible to spend whole
day at dinner without eating an average
meal. The island is so near the antarctic
region that days and nights are altogether
mixed up, from the idea of an ordinary in
dividual, but this plan of jumping the after
noon ofone day and the morning of the next
so as TO keep in line with the almanac is
something so ridiculous that none but a sea-
faring man can appreciate it or understan
the necessity.-Philadelph Press.

THE SWITCH WAS SPRUNG.
Caused the Wreck on the Southern
Pacific.
4 Snow Blockade Near Emigrant Gap.
Engineers Call on Superintend.
emit Fillmore.

Late last evening a report was received
at the Southern Pacific office that heavy
snowslide had occurred between Blue
Canyon and Emigrant Gap, the former
place being about eighty miles east of Sac
ramento and Emigrant Gap being about
five miles beyond.
The eastbound train which left this city
Wednesday night was held at the canyon,
and the one which left yesterday morning
was held at Gold Run, northeast OF Colfax.
The officials thought that the blockade
would only be of q temporary nature and
that the snowplow, which had been sent to
the scene, would be able to break through
with but little trouble.
That was reported as the only stretch of
territory in which trouble was apprehended
last night.
Wesfbound train 4, which met with an
accident at White Plains by which brake
man was killed Wednesday, and which was
due here yesterday morning at 9:45, will
probably arrive this morning.
A track has been temporarily constructed
around the wreck and travel resumed.
1t is believed by the railroad Officials that
the accident was caused by somebody tam
pering with the switch. A driver brake
tie rod-a piece of iron about four and
half feet long-was found under the end OF
the switch point rail, inserted in such
manner as to cause that rail to be elevated
above the track rail, thus throwing the en-
CINE upon the side track and causing the
wreck.
Brakeman Laforge was the only person
killed. while Engineer Kline and his fire.
man were slightly injured. Only the mail
and baggage cars were overturned.
The second-class overland train passed
the scene of the disaster about four hours
prior to the accident, and at that time the
track was all right.
At White Water, on the Sunset Route,
about 100 miles east of Los Angeles, where
the track was washed out Wednesday, it
had stopped raining yesterday and it was
expected to get trains through last night.
Passengers were transferred at that point
yesterday.
All Yesterday afternoon General Super
intendent Fillmore and large delegation
from the grievance committee of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
were in consultation in the Office of the
former. The subject discussed was the re-
cent readjustment OF wages which the en-
gineers claim is unjust in many instances,
and which they will attempt to have re-
modelled to suit their wishes. No under
standing has been reached as yet and
another conference will be held.

Track Notes.

Chorn rode two of the winners yesterday
-O'Bee and Morven.
Track Expert Clark, superintendent of
the Sheepshead Bay track, is expected to
arrive to-day. By the looks of the Bay
District he has hard task before him.
Ed Purser went down the line on May
Mccarthy to win the last run. With an
even break she would have been much
closer to the money.
Chemuck's saddle slipped, which made
it impossible for Isom to make more Wig
orous finish.
Mccullough, who rode Jim Noryell in
the fourth run, went to the post with
whip concealed on his person. 1t was dis
covered and taken away from him, and the
judges decided to make the little trick cost
him something and fined him 500. In
future, while the rule prohibiting the use
of whips is in force, and 1t is shown whip
has been used on horse during any part
of the run and he finishes in the first three,
he will be promptly disqualified.
