The Complexion.

Reader asks: ~. What is good for
a coarse skin? .. Is there anything
that will remove hair from the face
and arms? B. Is glycerine good for
the hair? Answers: l. II the skin is
naturally coarse nothing can change
it entirely The use of glycerine and
rose water and the most scrupulous
cleanliness will improve it. Wash
thoroughly, then rub in the glycerine
and rose water while the skin is still
damp .. There are preparations adj
vertised for the removal of superfluous
hair, but we can not indorse them. B.
Glyceriue is not good for the hair. Rub
vasaline into the roots with an old
linen towel and brush until clean.

! comotiyes dashing in and out has foI
them fascination that is strong and

| Is the very incarnation of strength and
power, of resistless and remorseless
energy. Beyond the aesthetic view OF
the machine the minds of few observ.
ers carry them. They may see loco.
motive with its train disappear in the
distance and wonder where it is going.
and when it is coming back, but they
do not wonder how the managers
keep track of the hundreds of locomo-
tives always on the move. in division
and out of division. so that they shall
not get mixed up or go astray.
The man who keeps track of the To-
comotives on the New York Central is
the superintendent of motive power
and machinery. He keeps a record
not only of the movement of each To-
connective, but also of its dimensions,
equipments, class. and state of eff
ficiency. The simplest way to look
after a locomotive would be to see
that ii receives proper care from its en-
gineer and fireman, and that il is re-
paired when they report the necessity.
But this would not bring the locomo-
tive to the standard of efficiency de-
manded to-day. On the walls of the
office of the superintendent of motive
power and machinery there are
series of large, dark wood tablets, each
about five feet square. in which large
metal pegs with heads bearing letters
and numbers and patches of colors are
stuck. The explanation Of the boards
and pegs brings one to the starting
point in the life of a locomotive.
Each board covers division of the
road, and gives not only the location
and work of the locomotives repre-
Sented by the metal pegs. but also
general idea Of the characteristics and
condition of each locomotive.
When locomotive first comes out of
the shop il gets a number and is as
signed to a division of the road. This
number is stamped on the head of a
metal peg, which is placed in one of
the holes of the proper division board.
As il sometimes happens that an ex-
cess of work in one division necessi-
tates the temporary transfer to it of
locomotives belonging to another divi-
sion an awkward mixing up OF the en-
gines of the two divisions would sooner
or later be the result if it was not pre-
vented by the simple device of giving
TO each division a distinguishing color
for its locomotive pegs. This is done
by painting a segment of the head of
the peg with the color of its division
On the New York Central the pegs for
the Hudson River division are painted
red; West Albany, white; Syracuse,
blue; Buffalo, yellow; and Harlem,
black. When a transfer of locomo-
tive from one division to another is or
dered its peg is transferred to the
board of that division, and it is re-
turned to its proper board when the
locomotive is ordered back to its or
iginal division. If yellow peg is in
the Syracuse board, it is seen instantly
that Buffalo locomotive is working
in the Syracuse division. As the move
nents and condition of locomotives
are telegraphed to New Yoak every
day, the pegs representing them are
moved to consistent positions on the
boards. A series of smaller supple |
nentary boards are kept, which show

Gale Raging Violently Through

LONDON. Jan. 25.-Severe storms pre-
vail over all the coasts OF Great Britain,
France and Holland. In Scotland the
fall of snow has been particularly
heavy. A fishing boat belonging to
Dunbar, with a crew of seven men on
board. has been lost, and of Port keath,
Cornwall, a vessel with a crew
of fourteen men has gone down.
The Times describes the exciting
wreck of the steamer which had a crew
of twenty men. Signals of distress
were seen at I o'clock in the morning,
and these attracted many men from
Port Reith to the shore. Many of the
men Joined hands and the leaders
Waded breast hight Into the water. BY
this means eight persons from the
steamer were saved. a life-bOat
from Hayle attempted to put off but
was washed ashore by the breakers. It
was impossible to launch her again.
Hundreds of people lined the shore at
daybreak and watched the vessel grad
uaIly settle. Those on board of her
dropped off one by one. 1t was impOs-
sibIe TO render any assistance to them.
Altogether twelve we're drowned.

The railroad commissioners deny re-

of the bill resent that 1t was prepared
by the railroad commissioners. but. TO
be more exact, that it came from their
Office The commissioners deny knOWi-
edge OF the bill or responsibility for it.
It came from their office only in the
sense that it was delivered to those who
Introduced it while they were in that
office. The bills were not read in full.

adapted to this state, but the story is
taken with grains or allowance.

possibly $1,000 will be the loss at North

GRAyEsEND. Eng. Jan. %. - The
steamer Mississippi from New York has
arrived here with the horses belonging
to Richard Croker and Michael T.

racing men went from London to South

of MIR. Cookers horses was injured.
Mr.. Lacy, of the stud at Newmarket

not due to any fault of the steamship
company, and L am glad to see that Dob
bins Is IN fine condition, and MOntauk is

MIR. Lacy thought that the other
horses would do good work here. They

trainer, remarked:

IT IS The IOWA LAW.
North Dakota Legislature Be-
gins to Monkey With
Railroads.
THE BILL OF COL. IRONS.
1t Is the Iowa Law Adapted
to North Dakota Con-
ditions.
CIGARETTE BILL PASSED.
Measure introduced Reducing
Contract Rate Of Interest
to 10 Per Cent.

BISMARCK, n. D., Jan. 25.-In both
branches of the legislature, by Strom
in the senate and Lindstrom in the
house, bills were introduced defining
the duties of railroad commissioners
and regulating common carriers. The
provisions reach bridge companies and
ferries. 1t gives the board power TO fix
sch edules, which shall be held reason
able until set aside by the courts; de-
clares that rates charged by any other
company in any other state shall also be
held reasonable if lower than the rates
charged by roads in this state: provides
that they shall inquire as to RESPONSE
bility for accidents, and their report
shall be prima faCie evidence as to the
facts stated The bill is supposed to be
drawn by Col Irons, of Fargo, but
comes from the railroad commissioners
to the persons introducing it. 1t is
claimed by others land LindStrOm so
States) to be the Iowa law adapted to
North Dakota conditions. There was
shrewdness in placing it in the hands
OF prominent Scandinavian members
for introduction. whatever the measure
Ma De.
Senate bills introduced: Haggart'
repeating the appropriation for the
Mandan reform school; Day, repeating
the law refusing record TO instruments
where taxes are not paid; Rourke. pro-
yiding code of procedure for county
courts granted increased jurisdiction
by constitutional amendment; also re-
ducing the contract rate Of interest
from II to 10 per cent. In the house
bills were introduced: Gleason, allow
ing sheriff to summon jurors, but not
talesmeD, when he is interested in the
action TO come before the court; kellogg,
allowing town authorities 10 cali for the
services of county surveyors; Logan.
suSpending the law prohibiting animals
from running at large from November
to April; HerbandSoD, requiring resi-
dence of three years before person can
become pauper and a charge upon the
state. Bills passed: Wineman's bill
prohibiting the sale of cigarettes, Rich
ards and Syensrud only voting no;
Kay's. requiring all property in the
state April TO be assessed for taxation.
the bill intended to tax wheat in ele-
yatOrs, which. it is claimed, has been
shipped out to avoid taxation; Pu don's.
fixing the date OF the first meeting of
the city council. and Senator ROurke's
bill accepting the conditions of the
United States statutes in relation to
soldiers homes, granting 500 for each
inmate Though not admitted by any
of the parties, the railroad bills intro>
duced today. are undoubtedly the bills
drawn by Col. Irons. using the Iowa
law as basis. They have aimed to
keep within the principles established
by court decisions, adding provisions
intended to cover the Bismarck bridge.
