Great City Railroads.

Some interesting statistics con-
eerning the railroads of our great
cities are given in an article in The
Chautauquau for January by Robert
|. Sloan, formerly chief engineer of
the Metropolitan Elevated Railroad,
New York. He says:
In Brooklyn the roads are built
over the streets, the same as in New
York. There are about twenty. six
and half miles OF elevated roads
in Brooklyn and they carry 100000
passengers per year and have about
100 employees The street railways
carry about l03,000,000 passengers.
There are no elevated roads in
Philadelphia. The surface street
railways carry about l70,00O,0O0 Of
the people every year.
In Boston there are yet no elevat-
Ell roads. The 2i5 miles of single
track surface roads in the city aud
suburbs are mostly equipped electri-
cally with overhead wires aud trol
leys.
Over 125,000,0O0 passengers are
carried by these lines. On account
OF the congestion of travel in the
business districts many plans have
been prepared for better rapid tran
sit, such as tunnels, subways aud ele-
waited roads. The latest proposition
is the Meigs elevated system on a
single row OF iron columns.
In Chicago street railways carry
about 2O7 100000 persons yearly, and
the elevated about 2O,00O,0O0 in ordi-
nary times. Chicago has at present
two elevated roads in operation and
a third in process OF construction.
The length OF double.track elevat-
ed roads in New York is about
thirty-six miles. They have in ser.
vice 1874 engines and l0i7 cars, and
carry about 222,OOO,0OO passengers
during the year, with a train mileage
of $4,000. They consume over
10000 tons Of coal during the year,
and employ about 300 men.
The costs approximate S35O,00O a
mile for the cable system complete,
while it costs about $4,000 a mile,
double track, for a frst.class over
head conductor electric system in
the city streets. The average cost
per mile for the roads in the United
States is about as follows:
Horse railways equipped per mile s II ,3S7
Electric trolleys equipped per mile. 1901

THE BOY GOT PUZZLED
He Knew More of Religion Than His
Catechiser.

A Protestant magistrate once had
little waif OF an Irish boy brought
before him for some trifling mis-
demeanor. Wishing to ascertain
how much the child comprehended
Of his duty to God and his neigh
Dor, he asked him il he could say
his prayers. The boy promptly re-
peated the Lords Prayer, and
further volunteered that he could
say the "Hail Mary" The magis.
trate testify replied that he did not
want to hear that, but requested
him to repeat the Creed. The child,
much frightened, began to do so,
but when he came to the clause,
Born Of the Virgin Mary" he stop
ped short aud anxiously said, "Please,
yer worship, she's turned up again,
and what am l to do2"-London Gem

The Rose She Gave.

Thistle rose she gave to me
With its crimson tips;
Red-as any rose should be,
Having touched her lips.
And with something If her grace
And che beauty OF her face.
This-the rose she gave to me,
Bloomed where south winds stir;
Hid its honey from the bee
For the lips Of her
Thro Ugh long days disquieted
For those lips to kiss red

Never rose 80 sweet
Here the heart OF springtme see
Lean and hear IL beat

WORK OF ORE THIEVES
Colossal System of Stealing in a
Colorado Mine.
CARRIED. OUT by THE MINERS.

Half the output Taken Away During soms
Months by an Organized Gang of Rob-
bers-The Mine Closed indefinitely Pend
ing an Investigation.
DENVER. June II, Such a colossal sys-
tenn of thieving from the rich Golden
Fleece mine, at Lake City Hlnsdale
county, has been unearthed that II is an
nounced the company will indefinitely
close down while an investigation Ia in
progress. To such an extent had the steal
ing proceeded that thousands of dollars
worth of rich gold bearing ore every month
hnd been carried off by the company's op-
eratlves. An amount equal to half tho
output of tho mine has been stolen during
several months This would mean loss
to the concern of $4,000 monthly. The
method Of the thicves was to carry Off
small pieces of the ore on quitting their
work, and then ship their stealinRs to other
points, or sell them in Lake City.
The Fleece is owned in Denver but in
the same district there are extensive prop
critics owned by eastern capitalists, nota-
bly, the Suffolk mine, which Is one Of the
leading dividend payers Of southwestern
Colorado. The stock of the latter COM
pany is owned in Hartford, but Is not af.
the robberies are the result of an organ
lied effort of the miners in the district.
The Fleece paid its June dividend at the
regular rate of two cents n share, but the
directors have decided that monthly pay
ments will be suspended until they find
out the extent of their losses.
In an interview ono of the officials of tho
company makes the statement that at
times the amount stolen has exceeded
one hulf OF their monthly output. II such
be the case this robbery becomes Btupend-
Gus, as the output of this bonanza mine
has averaged at least $4,000 per month.
These colossal figures seem possible only
when the extraordinary richness of their
high grade ore is taken into consideration.
The company has announced reward
of 81, 900 for Information leading to the
arrest and conviction of every person i'm
plicated in these robberies.
The managers insist that there has been
an organized gang Mt work making ship
ments to various parts Of the state, and
even to Mexico, from where the ore was
rcshipped to the smelters, They say they
| will run down every member Of the gang
| II it costs them $4,000 to do so. They have
| placed sentinels Mt all the workings to
prevent further thefts.
Some time ago the Victor, Of Cripple
| Creek, felt called upon to discharge its
entire force because of similar piifcringioi
