COST OF A TRAIN.
The Expense and Profits Of Travel Of
English Railway Lines.

The Expense and Profits Of Travel on
English Railway Lines.
How many people who travel in trains
ever think of the cost of running them?
1t will probably surprise most people
who have Travelled from London to Ed
inburgh to know that every mile of the
journey costs the railway company over
half crown. The cost Of the whole
journey from the English to the Scotch
capital is ESQ.
The average cost Of running train
in England is g. I'd. per mile, SO that,
the fare being reckoned at Id. per mile,
a train with less than 81 passengers for
each mile is run at loss. There are
few trains, however, that do not carry
more than this number Of passengers,
and many Of them carry the number
doubled many times over. 1t is neces-
sary frequently to run trains that do not
pay-usually in thinly inhabited ooun-
try districts-but for every train run at
a loss probably 100 are run at an enor-
nous profit.
Take, for instance, the journey from
London to Edinburgh, which costs the
railway company $50. The average
number of through" passengers in
these trains is probably 60, in which
case the total fares would be nearly
9lO0-a clear gain Of nearly ESQ. When
it is remembered that these trains run
several times a day, and every day in
the year, 1t will be understood what an
enormous revenue single line yields in
the course of IL months. Surprising the
average number of passengers to be go,
the midnight train from London to Ed
inburgh yields over EGO, 200 for divi.
dend in year!
The longest railway journey in the
United Kingdom would probably be
from Penzance, in Cornwall. to Thurso,
in the north Of Scotland, distance Of
over 1000 miles. A train running be-
tween these two places would exhaust
an ordinary clerks salary for a whole
year, the cost being no less than el3s.

"The commander of the faithful is
of middling stature, rather under than
over the average and of weakly constl-
tuition. His countenance has no wicked
expression 1t is of the Circassian type
from the mothers SIDE but bearing the
marks of degeneration. The eyes are
haggard, the forehead insignificant and
narrow, the eyebrows very thick, form
ing two great arcs, which coalesce. The
large nose dominates the whole physi-
ognomy and is slightly inclined to one
side at the lower extremity. The mouth
is large, the lips thick. The sultan
wears his beard long, and care has
sprinkled his hair and beard with silver
within the last few years. 1t is fami-
ly tradition among the heirs OF Osman
to speak i'll Il loud voice. Abdul Hamid's
utterance is strident and imperiOus. 1t
is the voice of master addressing those
whom he regards as his slaves.
Ever since he has been on the throne
Abdul Hamid has rarely gone to bed at
ght to rise in the morning like an Or
binary mortal He seldom retires until
dawn, but rises again at s o'clock, hav-
ing spent the night hard at work listen
ing to reports and attending to the
affairs of state. When he has nothing
else to do, he reads French detective
stories, for he has an all pervading idea
that conspiracies are being Matched
against him, and passes his time cir
cumventing an imaginary consplratOr.
Nobody knows where he will spend any
part of the day or evening. Often he
enters building and, while the SEN
tries at the door believe that he is inside,
he has gone by a back door and to
some other building. Moreover i'll what
ever part Of the palace he may be, there
is permanent service of surveillance
day and night, and he is constantly ac-
companied by score of persons, who
organize a special service i'll the build
ing or apartment where be happens to
be for the moment.
Where the sultan will sleep is never
known. He possesses more than so beds
i'll the different parts of the palace, and
these bedrooms are separated from the
rest of the edifice by iron doors and fur
nished with most ingenious and compli-
Gated locks. Two superb st. Bernards
also sleep outside the door of the apart
ment i'll which the sultan may be sleep
ing, for he knows that four footed
guardians cannot be tempered with.
Formerly the members of the imperial
harem used to move about among the
numerous palaces on the Bosporus, but
Abdul Hamid put a stop to it. The la
dies of the harem never have the benefit
of a change of air. Their palace is their
prison, and nowhere does phthisis claim
so many victims as in the harem of
Yildiz.-Contempor Review

To Grow Teeth.

A Moscow dentist has solved the
problem of supplying the human mouth
with false teeth which will grow into
the gums as firmly as natural ones. pr.
Zamensky has performed several sue
cessful operations OH dogs as we'll as
human beings. The teeth are made Of
gutta percha, porcelain or metal, rs the
case may be.
At the root of the false tooth holes
are made. Holes are also made upward
into the jaw. The tooth is then placed
in the cavity. In short time soft,
granulated growth finds its way from
the patients jaw into the holes in the
tooth. This growth gradually hardens
and holds the tooth in position.
1t is stated that it does not matter
whether the cavity in which the tooth
is to be placed is one from which nat
ural tooth has been recently drawn on
whether it has been healed for some
years.-Moscow Letter.

FIELD DIVERSIONS.
A Federal Officer Who Read Novels BE
tween Engagements.

tween Engagements.
General Horace Porter tells the fol-
lowing anecdote in his Campaigning
the ten days of battle through which
we had just passed very little relief,
physical or mental, had been obtained,
but there was one staff officer Colonel
B, who often came as bearer of
messages to our headquarters, who al
ways managed to console himself with
novel reading, and his popularity in
this respect became a standing joke
among those who knew him. He Went
about with his saddle bags stuffed full
of thrilling romances, and was seen sew
eral times sitting on his horse, under a
brisk fire, porting over the last pages of
an absorbing volume to reach the de-
nouement of the plot and evincing a
greater curiosity to find how the hero
and the heroine We're going to be eXtri
Gated from the entangled dilemma into
which they had been plunged by the
rtnsympathetic author than to learn the
result of the surrounding battle.
One of his peculiarities was thai he
took it for granted that all the people
he met We're perfectly familiar with his
line of literature, and he talked about
nothing but the merits of the latest
novel. For the last week he had been
devouring Victor Hugo's lies Miser-
ables. 1t was an English translation,
for the officer had no knowledge of
French. AS he was passing house in
rear of the ''angle' he saw young la
dy seated on the porch, and, stopping
his horse, bowed to her with all the
grace of Il Chesterfield and endeavored
to engage her in conversation. Before
he had gone far he took occasion to re-
mark, by the way, have you seen
Lees Miserables?' " anglicizing the
pronunciation. Her black eyes snapped
with Indignation as she tartly replied:
Don't you talk to me that way. They
are good deal better than Grant S mis-
CRADLES anyhown' This was retold so
often by those who heard it that, for
some time after, its repetition seriously
endangered the colonel's peace of mind.
