TROUBLES OF ITS OWN
The Northern Pacific Obliged to
Abandon Several Trains.
AND THE FLOODS CAME
Likewise the AK, for a Number of EN-
ployes Suddenly Find That Their
Heads Have Come Off-All
Sorts OF Rumors

Missoula, Dec. 30.--The rapid work of
the Northern Pacific AK has been the
absorbing topic of conversation to-day,
and there is considerable discussion as
to where il will fall next time.
There are all sorts of rumors afioat
but 1T is probable that they are much
exaggerated, as such report usually
are. The fact remains, however, that
there are several trainmen who were in
the service yesterday, and who are out
in the cold to-day. No reason has been
given for the discharge of these men,
but the supposition is that the com
pany has received a hint TO the effect
that they We're making too much
money The men may have been told
why the AK fell, but they are not tell
ing anybody why it was, If they know
There have been no new developments
to-day but more are looked for.
The Northern Pacific has other trou-
bles just at present than the conduct
of its employees. The entire west end
of the line is in trouble from the eff
fects of high water, ana no trains are
running between Portland and Tacoma
1t was reported here yesterday that
the floods had subsidized, but they seem
to have been no through train from the
West to-day, and there will be none
till tomorrow. There was train
made up here this afternoon that went
East on the time of No. 2, but it carried
no mail or express. The eastbound
train that was expected to-day will
probably be here tomorrow morning
some time.

states. Every shade of color between
the Caucasian pure and simple and the
absolutely black man is embraced
within the term 'colored.' This class of
citizens composes not only a large ele-
ment of Jamaica society. but. as a rule,
they are fairly educated. familiar with
the customs of society and occupy

whites. $4,000 colored and 100000 black.
All men are alike eligible to civic and
political employment.
Talking about the tyranny Of the la
Dor unions in the United States, the
labor problem takes on an entirely diff
ferent phase in Jamaica. The Jamaican
laborer is an independent being who
scorns TO work except when he is in
need of ready cash. l don't know but
that a great many walking delegates
in the United States have the same
scorn for work, for that matter. There
are over 10000 peasant proprietors in
Jamaica. and, as a class, they are eX
empt from the necessity of accepting
employment, and they only work at
such times as they may require ready
cash. Allowing five members to a fam
lily, there are over $50 900 persons in this
exempted class of laborers. The women
are far more Industrious than the men
and are equal to the men in physical

large burdens on top of their heads.
The women work at almost any EN-
plcyment As domestic servants these
women do the work that is usually done
by male servants in the United States.
