haven't much hair ON my head"
said superintendent Mansfield of tho
indianapolis and Vincennes, ''but what
little 1 have was up in the air like por-
cupine quills this afternoon. Several of
us were coming down the Union tracks
as NO. 20, the fast train on the mdianap-
OILS division, was pulling out.
at Delaware street three tramps
were standing. BY the time the train
reached that point it was going at q
lively rate. Each of the tramps selected
coach, and as the train rushed by
caught the iron rod that extends under
the side of the car and swung beneath
the train in front of the trucks. Like
acrobats. they turned over the rod and
rested their feet ON the brake beams,
ana as the train rolled ON settled down
Tor ride. A single mistake, a-slip Of
the hand or the failure to place their
feet Oh the brake beam, meant for them
horrible death. I was go frightened
at their recklessness that I fairly lost
my breath. Experienced railroad man
that am, would not have attempted
such feat for 81, 900, ,0OO."
That was a common trick" said
Frank Lewis, formerly with the Union
Pacific Railway company. "I have had
good deal OF experience with tramps,
and there are few Of them but risk their
lives daily on the cars. The old time
tramps used to walk over the country.
Up to date tramps ride. I have taken
them out from beneath the pilot Of the
engine. have hauled them from the
brake beams Of passenger cars, and
favorite hiding place for them is at the
top OF the vestibule. On top Of the cars
is pleasant place during the summer,
but In winter they try to make them
selves as comfortable as possible. It is
seldom that you hear of a tramp being
killed by the cars unless in wreck. To
oecome an expert car jumper is one of
the first requisites of tramp Of the
hrst class. ."-Indianapolis News.

''It was total surprise to me-" said
she. "Iwas in my Office in the Masonic

Miss Knowles came marvelously near
being elected. So close was the issue Of
the election that it required three weeks
to settle the question, and at last it was
announced that Mr.. Haskell, the bach
elor attorney general, had been re-elect-
cd by narrow margin of votes.
Miss Knowles accepted the decision of
the ballots with philosophical resigna-
tion and went back to her lucrative
practice, all the better known for the ex-
perience which she had gained. A few
weeks later she was notified by letter
that she had been appointed assistant
attorney general Of the state. The ap-
pointment, coming unsolicited, was a
, great surprise to her. However, she ac-
ecepted, and has performed the duties of
: her Office since doing so.
Z Her appointment had sequel in a
delightful romance, which, related In
& Mrs. Haskell's naive way, is exceeding
ly interesting While performing the
prosaic duties Of assistant attorney gen
eral Miss Knowles was thrown in a
most constant contact with Attorney
General Haskell. The two former oppo-
nents became the warmest Of friends and
after becoming friends, lovers. They

Fire and Air.

The intimate relation between fire
and air was early recognized, seeing
that experience soon Taught that air
was necessary for fire. The experiment
OF burning candle in closed vessel,
now so familiar to every schoolboy, is a
very old one, and the influence of a
blast OF air on a furnace had been prob
ably noticed from very remote period.
BY some it was affirmed to be the food
OF fire, while by others the same belief
was embodied in the phrase, "Air nour-

by Rev. Denton.
Yesterday afternoon Rev. D. a. Dem
ton, pastor OF the Chapline Street NJ.
L. church. delivered a brief address at
the young mems meeting In the lecture
room OF the Y. NJ. C. A. building.
lie chose for his theme. christian
Influence by Personal Contact" The
Improvements OF the last so years have
made the world one great neIGhbOrhood.
This has come about by the use OF np-
piled steam and kindred devices. The
people OF the world have been brought
closer together. In the realm OF COM
mercG we know all nations. Nations
different in their habits and thoughts
are brought into close contact by this
commercial influence. There Is no caste
as far as n commercial world Is con-
cerncd. We meet on a common level to
trade with all peoples. Our interests
in commercial dealings have led us to
neglect the more important interests OF
our spiritual and intellectual life.
But In an important sense u society
is cut up into castles of intelligence. Of
wealth. and other divisions. The
boundaries OF these castles are not In
superahle; individuals may pass from
one caste 10 another. The castles remain.
We always have them. And there Is q
wide gulf between church life to-day
and~the caste described by the term
masses. There Is u law OF our social
life according to which the greatest
good that comes TO society must be
wrought out. For instance, every per-
son has an Influence for good or evil
that goes out from US unconsclously as
the aroma from the flower. This Is no
accident: this Is n law. In establishing
the kingdom VI God In the world Christ
recognized this law when he stated that
men should be known by their fruits.
He recognized II in the parable OF the
mustard seed. and again In the parable
OF the leaven. II was recognized In the
acts OF the first disciples OF Christ.
Peter was induced to follow Christ by
his brother Andrew. who was already
n convert. Nathaniel was led to Christ
by Philip. The reverend speaker here
gave many similar Instances along this
line.
In closing. the drift OF his remarks
was as follows: Church machinery Is
good; we cannot get along without II.
But machinery cannot take the place OF
personal contact. The masses need the
gospel Of a warm heart. %pulSating with
life, and manifested In n life among
them. They want the influence OF q,
Christian life on a plane with them.
