PULLED UP BY A KITE,
Camden Man nt the End of Half q
Mile of Rope.

Camden Man at the End of Half u
Mile of Rope.
From the Philadelphia Record.
When Walter p. Skinner built a. big
kite in the basement of his residence
5l2 North Ninth street, Camden, N. j.
he got it too big for comfort. 1t was
such a giant, indeed. that he found it
impossible to get it out Of any Of the
windows or doors, no matter how he
tried. That was discouraging, for Skin
ner had lively anticipation of the
amazement his kite would create when
It went soaring into the skies. Un-
daunted by this setback Skinner set to
work and cut two feet off the width
and as much off it's length. Even then
the monster was seven feet wide and
ten feet high.
Skinner selected a night for a test
OF his huge kite, and it came near TAX
Ing him off on a voyage through space.
With half mile Of good strong rope
tied to it. the kite was carried to open
lots between Penn and Pearl streets.
opposite Skinner's residence. News of
the anticipated exhibition spread
through the vicinity, and a crowd of
perhaps 400 persons gathered to see the
kite go up. They saw great more
than they expected. Skinner got two
young men to hold the kite while he
across the lot with the rope to give the
monster a start. A good, fresh breeze
was blowing, and soon the kite began
to riSe slowly at first, and a good deal
like man under the influence of the
ardent. 1t was as much as the two
men could do to hold the rope There
came luli in the wind, however, and
it rose more slowly and gracefully The
crowd applauded as the big object took
more and more Of the rope and rose
higher and higher in the atmosphere
At length all the rope was paid out
and the kite was riding. with scarcely
a tremor, high in the heavens.
So we'll was it laboring that Skinner
took the rope alone. In moment the
wind brushed up again. and before the
amazed Skinner realized what was hap
pening he was off his feet and moving
over the ground toward the east at a
terrific gait. The excited crowd called
to him to let go rs hold and save him
self, but Skinner held on like grim
death, determined to save the giant
| which was making him the plaything.
Hoffman ran to the rescue, and man
aged to get hold Of the rope, letting
SINNERS feet touch terra frma once
| more.
Even with both men tugging at the
rope, the kite threatened to get away,
| and they had all they could do to keep
| their feet by running and relieving the
| wind pressure. Then they wrapped the
rope about a telegraph pole and man
dozen men to haul down the giant.

Inc passenger rates to and from
Chicago will be reduced on all
Chicago-St. Paul lines from $11.5O
to $S. The action Of the Chicago. Mil
waukee & st. Paul road in making
such cut has been followed by all Of
It's competitors, and the prediction is
made by railroad men that this is only
The first step in protracted rate war
Which will result in still greater reduc-
tons in the near future.
The Burlington, the Omaha, the Wis
cons1n Central and the Chicago Great
Western have announced a determina-
ton to meet the Milwaukee at every
turn, and it Is believed that the rate
will eventually get down as low as 81,
If the lines do not get together and join
IN a genuine effort to maintain STAN
dard rates. But this is not promising
prospect, for 1t has been recently dem
onstrated that the Chicago-St Paul
companies do not place much reliance
in each others good faith. The COM
ments made on the action of the Mil
Waukee road show that there is a
sooc deal Of i'll feeling and suspicion
among them all towards one another
The Milwaukee officials declare that
their only excuse for making the cut
is the scalpers who are manipulating
through tickets from New York to st.
Paul at Chicago. They say the rail-
road wants to get the money that has
been going to scalpers.
The Eastern lines are responsible
for this reduction" said local passen-
ger agent yesterday. "They wanted us
to adopt the rebate system, promising
to protect us, and we did so; but the
Eastern lines have failed to keep their
agreement. We cannot prove that they
have been acting in league with scalp
ers, but we have had an instructive
feeling that such is the case If we
went to a scalper for information he
knew nothing of it, and the railroads
swore that they knew nothing of it.
Yet the fact remained that we were
getting the worst of it. So the only
thing we could do was to put the rate
down so low that there will be no
profit in the business for the scalpers
Had congress passed the anti-scalp-
Ing bill, it would be possible to main
tain standard rates between Chicago
and st. Paul. Congress would have
made the bill law, if it had not been
for the war against Spain. That bill
was lost. with great many other good
measures, in the mass Of general war
business that had to be attended to-"
Another passenger agent said he
thought the Chicago-St. Paul rate wal
would prove beneficial.
''The roads will reduce the rates SO
low that there will not be a cent in ii
for any of them," he said, land then
they will realize the folly Of their &C.
tion and will unite in restoring stan
dard rates."

Gossip Concerning the TransatIan-
tic Steamships

The American English steamship lines are
fighting over the payment Of the war reye-
nue. tax. By the terms of the law the tax
on frst-class tickets is IS, on seconded
$3 and on steerage 81. The New York steam
Shall pay the tax. The result of this policy
has been to divert from the New York
companies many passengers who go to Ca
madam ports, where no such tax Is Imposed
The New York lines see the tide of travel go
from them, but they still insist that they
will not pay the tax. The Canadian English
companies are quite complacent over the sit
uaticn.
The dispute among Transatlantic lines as
to which has the greatest tonnage has heen
settled by the Hamburg American line, which
will have. when it's new steamer is placed in
commission, a tonnage of 325. 900.
John G. Allen has just been appointed To-
cal agent in St. Paul of the London &
Northwestern railway, of England. A. G.

quarters in New York.
The Beaver line has issued new rs.e
sheet The prepaid second-class fare to Eng
land now is $32, and steerage $24.

Bourgogne was sunk in collision the French
line company for two new steamers. These
will be built and will be put in service next
year. They will reduce the time between
Havre and New York to. six and a half
days.
The Atlantic Transport line has recently
chartered a number of new steamers from
the Leland Furness- Wilson freight combina-
tion in order to avert any more lawsuits on
account of the war. The company sold six
of it's steamers to the government at time
when it had contract with firm of New
York butchers for al the cargo space on the
vessels, and the firm has sued the trans
port company for 81 600 900 damages.
The American Steamship line has chartered
five steamers from the Hamburg American
line for it's hiladelpha-Liverpool service
and the steamers formerly in that service
have been transferred to the New York
Southampton service to replace the steamers
St. Paul. st. Louis. Paris and New York
which were taken by the government for aux
iliary cruisers This has been necesstated by
the great business which the German lines
have captured from the American line during
the war against Spain.

That Caused the Lawyers to Weep

From the Chicago Journal.
Old-time lawyers tell q story about ex-
Judge Simeon P. shopes younger days. It

accompanied usually by a string Of young
lawyers, who picked UP cases at the court

appointed.
1t was under such circumstances that
young Shope and another young attorney
were appointed at Lewiston, Fulton coun-
ty, to defend servant girl who was charged
with the larceny Of some of the effects
of her mistress. The stolen goods were
found In the girls trunk after she had
moved to a new situation.
The girl put on brazen front, and her
the things got into her trunk. The case
did not look encouraging, but Shope fixed
it with all the other travelling lawyers that
when he argued to the jury they were to
cry and look sad.
When he launched into an eloquent plea
to the jurors and drew a picture of the
friendless girls dead mother looking down
from heaven to see her innocent daughter
accused of theft the attorneys rubbed their

But as he turned to point impressvely at

EYES OF MONKEYS.
They Are Shifty, and the Animals
VIII NGt Gaze on Man.

From the Washington Star
Zone Of the most difficult brutes to pho
tograph is the monkey said man in New
York who makes business Of taking the
pictures of all sorts of animals ard birds.
"You may try as much as you like but you
will never succeed in making a monkey look
straight into the center of a camera. even
for a second. Its glance always shifts off
to one side or the other. Nor will 1t ever
catch your eye or fix it's own upon yours, and
1 have come to the conclusion that monkey
cannot look at camera any more than it
can a human being in the face.
'sTake dogs head in your two hands and
look into its eyes. The beast will return your
gaze not for long perhaps, ,ofor the contempla-
tion Of human intelligence distresses all ami
mails. But it is not so with the monkey.
Hold its head as patiently as you please be-
up to the ceiling and keep on winking or
cast them down to the floor as if asleep: or
twist them around in a most absurd fashi IN
to look over one side. or the other; but never,
even in passing by it, will 1t catch yours.
However if they are bashful. they are
very inqustive. and if. were to leave my
camara unguarded for ten minutes in a cage
containing dozen monkeys half the family
would be busy taking photographs of the
