TINE QUEENS RAILWAY TRAIN.

The salon formerly consisted of two
six-wheeled vehicles connected by a
flexible central gangway; but in 1896
the two bodies were placed on a 6O-foot
underframe. with two six-wheeled
bogies, making one vehicle. The day
compartment, upholstered in royal
blue silk, with white silk roof is fur
nished in satinwood inlald with tulip
wood. and the night compartment, up
holstered in red patterned chintz, with
heavy green curtains, is furnished with
a brass bedstead. The salon is strong
ly braked, lighted by electric lamps,
and has electrical communication from
the queens apartments to the Indian
and other attendants and also to the
guard of the train. The description
does not read very grandly; but the
shrewdest thought, the highest me
chanical skill and the best workman
ship have been concentrated in the
building and equipment Of the queens
train, and the arrangements safeguard
ing it are, though the words merge on
paradox, careful and costly. The ordi-
nary traffic is suspended; so is al.
shunting. Platelayers watch the track,
and there is vigil at every crossing. A
pilot engine is run fifteen minutes in
advance Of the train throughout its en-
tire journey, its progress is telegraph
ed from point to point, and a sharp
lookout is kept by the officials to de-
tect the slightest regularity in run
ming.

not exceed thirty-six miles an hour;

JUST A WAR INCIDENT.

He was waiting on the corner OF
Twelfth and Walnut streets. There was
quite a crowd around awaiting street
cars and there was plenty of war talk
to be heard from the loungers in front
Of the saloon across the way. The
morning sunshine was warm upon the
pavement.
Gould you oblige us with the way to
the armory?" asked a voice. He turn
ed quickly. Two fair-haired young fell
lows were standing there, one on each
side, as he faced them. They were
keenly interested as they waited for his
reply.
"The Third Regiment Armory; you
want to enlist?"
'Yes, sir; we want to join the army"
He directed them to go straight out
Twelfth street until they came to
Troost, and he became really interest
ed in the young fellows as they told
him Of their long search for employ
ment and of a possible chance Of dis
tinguishing themselves in the war. He
gave them a card introducing them to a
friend of his in the regiment.
One of the young men did most OF
the questioning in modest way, and
as the sidewalk was rather crowded
they stood rather close together. He
whistled a patriotic air as they walked
up the street. Suddenly he was an
noyed to find that he had been standing
with utter carelessness, coat thrown
wide open, hands thrust in pockets. His
eyes remained fixed in the direction
the strangers had taken. His hand
stealthily raised itself to his vest; the
chain and watch were both gone. And
then he searched through his Othei
pockets. All that he found missing
was $27 in new bills that he had re
ceived the night before. 1t happened
to be all he had.
As he walked down the street he was
= still whistling, but he had changed his
tune.-Kansas City Times.

sPAIN,s POWER Boo YEARS AGo.

SPANS POWER 300 YEARS AGO.
Macaulay drew this picture OF the
power of Spain 300 years ago, that it is
to recall at just this juno
ture: The empire of Philip the Second |
was undoubtedly one Of the most pow
erful aud splendid that ever existed
in the world. 1t is no exaggeration 10
say that during g, several years his power
over Europe was greater than even that
of Napoleon. In America his domin-
ions extended .on both sides of the
equator into the temperature zone.
There is reason to believe that his an
nula revenue amounted in the
season of his greatest power to a sum
ten times as large as that which Eng
land yielded to iElizabeth. He had a
standing army off $4,000 troops, when
England had not a single battalion in
constant pay. He held what no other
prince in modern, times has held, the
dominion both of the land and the sea.
During the greater part of his reign he
was supreme on both elements. His
soldiers marched tlp to the capital OF
France; his ships menaced the shores
of England. Spain had what Napoleon
desired in vain-ships, colonies and
commerce. She long monopolized the
trade of America and of the Indian
ocean. All Of the gold of the West and
all of the spices of the East were re-
ceived and distributed by her. Even
after the defeat of the armada Eng
Hsh statesmen continued to look with
great dread on the maritime power OF
Philip. Whoever wishes to bt
well acquainted with the morbid an
atomy Of governments; whoever wishes
to know how great states may be made
feeble and wretched, should study th'
history Of Spain.-Springfeld Repubh

THESE BRING LUCK.

"Iife is made up Of little things, and
the smaller they are the more important

prominent street contractor to a Wash
ington Star reporter. How few peo-
pie fail to pick up a horse shoe il it Is
in their road. A pin has a similar in

much more use for them than men. |
pick up pins and horse shoes as often as
see them, and don't know that have
ever had any special good luck or bad
luck in consequence, and l suppose l
shall continue to do so TO the end of the
chapter, call It superstition or anything
else you may. The lucky pickup with
me, however, is marbles-the playing
alleys Of the boys-and l am free to ad-
init that 1 would rather find a marble
than any small thing that know Of.
Good luck always has followed finding
q marble as far as am concerned, and
IN talking about II find that others
have had similar experience. My OBJ
servation, though, is that marble find
ing is the rarest kind of good luck for
women, though there is not as much
superstition in II as there is about the
horse shoe. You will be surprised upon
talking TO your circle Of friends to find
how many there are who are pleased to
pick up marble, and many OF them Will
be able to give you substantial reasons
| for their belief. know Colorado lady
who resides In this city-an artist OF
some distinction-who tells me that she
has never failed to sell her pictures If
she had a marble which she found in
her pocket, and has never been able TO
do so IL she did not have any. Simply
carrying the marble in the pocket does
not work the charm. 1t must be found
and the more frequent the finding the
more frequent the good luck"

CnInmhns, NInrrInec.

The reason why Christopher Colum-
bus has not yet been numbered among
the saints may not be generally known,
Il seems that his beatihcation has been
urged for centuries. but has never been
decreed because his marriage certii-
cate could not be procured, and conse-
quently his welded life, he leaving a
son (Diego), was considered concubin-
age. Now that the Congregation OF
Rites has recently discovered the miss
ing certificates, all obstacles are re-
moved. and ere long we may hear ol
"Christonher Columbus beatus."
