Have You Seen It9

Every big railroad in this country has
q freight car in it's equipment bearing
the number 12,345, and yet I'll lay
reasonable odds that you may tramp
this town over and you will not be able
to find man, / care not how much he
has travelled, who has ever seen car
with that number. Among railroad
men it is known as the sequence car"
or the Observation-Disclosures car. !"
Perhaps you never looked for it. I have.
For years in my travels made it q
practice to get out whenever the train
stopped and take look at the freight
cars in sight, and I have met drummers
who told mo they did the same thing,
but never glimpse did get Of that
car nor did / ever run across man
who had been so fortunate. Try it. Go
up to the freightyards in this city or
across the river. You will find hundreds
of cars, but it's SO to pint Of peanuts
that car IL, 345 will not be among them.

Cuban Bric-a-brac In Vogue.

Curiosities and bric-a-brac from Cuba
are now slowly coming into vogue.
Oddly enough, they were quite fashion
able 40 and so years ago. A fayorite
and one Of the most beautiful objects
imaginable is bunch Of crystals from
one of the famous caverns in the lime
stone district. Some of these are as clear
as rock crystal, and are not alone many
faceted but are often covered in part
with masses Of large and small crystals
of great brilliancy,s When the faceting
occurs in certain patterns, the crystal
has the fire Of a precious stone and, in
q well lighted parlH will throw colored
lights and fires in every direction. Still
another beautiful object is mass of fine
fern leaf coral, which is found near the
keys in the middle and eastern part Of
the island Some of this is SO delicate
that it suggests petrifed cobweb. -

SLEEPWAlklNG.
Strange Things Men Do While In . State
of Somnambulism.

Strange Things Men Do While In Q State
of. Somnambulism.
Readers of that charming work of my
late friend Wilkie Collins, 1.-The Noon
stone," will remember the sleepwalk-
ing feats of Mr.. Franklin Blake when
under the influence of an opiate. What
the novelist describes as piece of fic-
ton may be paralleled from the sober
records of science.
McNish, in his classic volume on
"Sleep, " tells Us of a shepherd lad who
wrapt in slumber, walked miles to the
place where his flock was pastured,
waded through a river and returned
home without waking In another case
a lad in his sleep scaled a precipitous
cliff and brought home from it an
eagles nest, which was found under his
bed in the morning.
Abercrombie' case of the Scottish
lawyer who when worried over per-
picking case, was seen by his wife to
rise from his bed in the night is an
other illustration Of the occasionally
purposive character of somnambulism,
when, directed by it's private secretaries,
the sleeping ego is apparently reused
from its couch and made to act the part
Of a pure automaton. This individual
went to writing desk which stood in
his bedroom, sat down before the desk
and wrote for some time. Then, replac-
ing the paper within the desk, he re-
turned to bed.
In the morning he told his wife of a
dream he had experienced, in which he
imagined he had given a satisfactory
opinion on the case which was trou-
bling his mind. He expressed regret
that he could not recall the train of
thought represented in his dream. On
his wife directing him to his writing
desk, he found therein the opinionsin
question clearly written out and in
every respect satisfactory. Andrew

TOURISTS ABROAD.
The Money They Spend Amounts 20
100000, 900 Year.

1no money They Spend Amounts %
67OO.OOO,OOO Year.
The amount Of money expended by
tourists In Europe has, if official records
abroad are to be accepted as authentic,
increased enormously of late years.
There has been recently filed with the
Swiss minister of finance and customs
at Bern a detailed statement of hotel
receipts in that country, from which it
appears that tie gross receipts of Swiss
hotels rose from SO, 500, 900 francs in
1880 to ia, 1913, 900 in 1894. The entire
annual expenses of the Swiss republic
amount in year to between so, 600, 600
and 10000, 900 francs (the budget for
this year is given at the latter figure),
and it would seem, therefore, very much
as if the hotels of Switzerland take in
in a year more than the government it
self does
The Swiss figures are not the only
ones furnished in Europe recently on
this point A Frenchvecord shows that
every year there are 270, foreigners
who pass from fortnight to a whole
winter on the Riviera. Every person is
supposed to expend on an average 1000
francs, or 5000, in the country In 9th
er words, the foreign visitors spend in
the country every winter the sum of
$54, 900, 000 The English are put down
as contributing one-third of this amount;
the French themselves contribute anoth-
er third; Germans, Belgians, Dutch,
Russians and Americans contribute the
remainder. From being poor country
when it was annexed to France in 1860
Nice has become one of the richest de-
partments of the republic
Some figures recently compiled of the
revenues to hotels from tourists in Paris
show the average number of foreign
visitors to be 10000. 1t is customary
to estimate at 10 francs, or So, a day
the hotel bills of strangers in Paris.
Estimating at So day each the hotel
bills of 80, 900 tourists and at about as
much more their other OUTLAWS it is to
be seen that tourists in Paris can be put
down fF an expenditure of nearly $780,
900 a day.
The total sum expended by tourists
in Europe in a year is probably not very
far from $700, 900, 900, and very con-
siderable portion of this comes from the
pockets, the purses and the bankers
balances of Americans, who are pro-
verbally the most liberal among travel
ers. Russians come second, Brazilians
third. Exchange.
