The Dumping Trolley Wheel.

Nearly every one has noticed the diSagreeable pumping sound some times made by the trolley cars and has wondered what caused it The trolley company is as much annoy ed by this sound as the public, since it means to them an outlay for a new pair of wheels When a wheel once becomes flat at any point how ever slight. generally caused by the skidding or sliding of the wheel along the track, due to a srdden ap- plication of the brake, the wheel is worn fat, and afterward, wherever there is a tendency to skid, it natu- rally takes place at the point which is already fat until at last the wheel Is worn So fiat that t causes the pumping sound referred to. The average life of trolley street car wheels shows that they travel a dis tanoe of about 22, 900 miles, or some what less than once around the earth at the equator, before they are replaced The hattening of the wheels is the most frequent cause of the renewal of car wheels, al though occasionally they are replsc- cd because of broken fianges or bent axles -PhiIadelphia Record.

As to spelling.

If thero is one accomplishment ot which men are more proud than of any other, it Is their ability to spell correctly. That Is wby Deacon White, Dr. Talmage, Henry Ward Beecher, Frederic k. Coudert, Seth Low and the whole host of able and influential men enter with such clee into spelling bees. And, doy you know, not one of them can spell. There are two or three ways of spelling almost everything these days, and no one can say which Is proper. Worcester sticks in his two Is wherever he can, while Webster uses only one. Stormonth splits the difference, and the Century Dictionary does not seem to know what to do. l am for

The salmon Is one of the anadro- nous fishes. of which the sbad and sturgeon are other examples, anad- romOus fishes being those that come from the sea and ascend fresh water streams to spawn. and return to the sea again after spawning. It Is not known of the shad whether 1t re- mains in deep water in the ocean not very far away from the river whence 1t came or whether 1t gOes south, but 1t seems certain that some salm- on, at least. spend their sea life not far away from their rivers, for salmon have been caught at sea in northern waters, of the New Eng land coast. on hooks baited for cod, haddock and halibut.-New York Sun.

Rice Eatsn

The Fortnightly Review is of the opinion that diet has more or less influence upon character, but does 5. not concede that a vegetable diet renders the eater more gentle than . diet of which animal food forms 8 part Vegetarians, it says, are prone 10 contrast the gentleness of our do- mestic herbivora with the ferocity often displayed by carnivorous ami mals.
 A little reflection, however, shows that the food cannot be the main oApss of the disposition in either case. Many of the herbivora are capable of displaying the utmost fe- rocity. Savage attacks upon inoffen- sive persons by bulls, horses and stAgs are by 10 means uncommon in this country, while in the east rogue" elephants. wild boars and other hsrbivwous animals often in- nict serious injuries upon human be- inSs who chance to come in their way.
 So, likewise, the ordinarily mild Hindoo. feeding on rice or wheat fOa-, is liable to become riotous. un- CoatroIlable and bloodthirsty when in1uenc7i by religious fanaticism. Perhaps ,Ihe mischievous effects up- on the habits and disposition as- cribed to animal food are due to the alcoholic liquors which are oonsum- cd st the same time.
 The disposition of an average in- dividusf leading temperate life would probably not be altered for the better were he to substitute veg etarian diet for his ordinary fare.

Charcoal.

1t looks as if the charcoal man would soon become thing of the past, said an old charcoal dealer to a reporter of the Washington Star a few days since. Somehow, be con- tinued. people have forgotten the uses and advantages of charcoal
 Customers who formerly used bar rel or ss in a week now do not get that much in a couple of months, and the great majority have given up using it altogether, At hotels where three and four barrels week wera needed they now manage to get along without it. But few of the modern ranges are provided with a charcoal furnace, while in past times Do first class range was complete without a separate place in which tO burn charcoal. The modern cooking school teachers do not seem to know that charcoal ever played a part m The kitchen. As far as can see now, the only cooks who use charcoal are those who learned of it's advantages in days of their apprenticeship years ago, and who are so old fashioned in their ways that they will not con- sent to change, There was once a time when none of the best eaters would think of eating a steak that was not broiled over charcoal.

WHY s. a. L. WAS NOT SOLD
THE POOL ISSUE A STATEMENT
TOUCHING THE COLLAPSE.
Whether Mr.. Ryan Represented the
Southern Railway Does Not Con.
cern the Committee.

New York, Nov PA statement re-
garding the collapse of the negotiations
for the transfer of the conarol Of the Sea
board Airline to Thomas +. Ryan, of
this city, was to-day issued by the pool
ing committee Of stockholders of that
property. 1t recites the early history of
the proposed deal when Gen. John Gill
was endeaYoring to secure control Of the
Seaboard system by getting options on
the Seaboard and Roanoke Railway Com
pany and the formation Of a pool by
President Hoffman's friends and the sign
ing Of the contract on October 9th, be-
tween a committee representing that pool
and Messrs. Ryan and Harvey, this be-
ing subject to the approval Of the three
quarters of the shares represented as ex-
planned in copy Of the pooling contract
which was mailed to Mr.. Ryan.
With very few exceptions every stock
holder signing the pool voted, and in
stead OF three-fourths voting in favor Of
the sale to Mr.. Ryan, less than one half
were recorded in the affirmative, Mr..
Ryan was at once notified of the result
OF the ballot and that the stockholders
declined to sell at the priced named. His
100000, amount deposited, was returned
to him. At the time of the contract, Oc-
tober 9th, very few stockholders had
signed the pooling agreement. The stock
holders were unknown personally to the
committee, and the committee had no
knowledge of how many shares Gen. Gill
had secured and hence it was simply inn
possible for them to give assurances of
any kind in the premises. The commit
tee held the pool stock as agents, and their
authority over the same was limited and
defined with agreement creating the pool.
THE proposition of Mr. Ryan was sub
mitted to every stockholder fairly" says
the statement, 'and the committee did
not seek TO influence or control their
votes. Whether Mr.. Ryan represented
the Southern Railway Company in the
proposed purchase is matter with which
the committee had no concern and they
are not responsible for what seems to be
the opinion that the real object of the
proposed purchase was to remove com
petition and thereby imperil the vast busi-
ness interests of the South"
