A Railroad,s Thouyhtfulne

Commuters on the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna & Western railroad in New
Jersey are inclined to challenge a
new regulation which has just been en-
forced on the ground that it smacks
of paternalism. AS each brakeman
calls station, as, for instance, Hack
ensack, he does it in this fashion:
"Hackensackl Don't forget your
b-u-n-d-l-e-s. Occasional passeng gers
find those calls very amusing and as
each station is announced they grin at
the brakeman, who doesn't enjoy the
new regulation, and then look around
to see the commuters pick up their
bundles. Undoubtedly this new regu-
lation was suggested by the number
of bundles which commuters left be-
hind them in the cars and then both
cred the railroad company to look up
for them. II object to this regula-
tion," said one of the commuters. eff
the railroads are going into this bust
ness, the first thing we will know the
brakeman will cal out: 'Hackensack |
Have you forgotten to mail your wife s
letter?' or perhaps it will be Mont
clair! Remember to stop at the butch
er's. 1 invited friend to come out
and spend the night with me short
time ago, and he began to laugh when
the first station was announced. As
station after station was reached and
the brakeman sung out monotonously
at each: Don't forget your bundles, ;
his merriment increased. He would
talk about nothing else at dinner, and
when he said good night to us he
added: Don't forget your bundles. >
It's kind of the railroad, of course,
but 1 don't like It,"

QUEER WORK FOR AN ARMY.
Experiment In Prussia to Estimate the
Skill and Speed of Soldiers.

IN IrusSia to Estimate the
Skill and Speed of Soldiers.
An interesting experiment has Just
been made by the Prussian war de-
partment, with view to discover the
speed with which artisans can work
In given time in the ranks of the
German army, says the London Tele-
graph. Twelve hundred bootmakers,
selected from the eighteen army corps
scattered about the empire, were sum
moned just over a month ago to Ber-
lin, to go through a course of four
weeks work. Eighteen colonels, lieu
tenant-coloncls and captains, with
corresponding number of noncommis-
stoned officers were ordered to come
to the capital to superintend the men.
The men were quartered in the bar
racks of the 1st field artillery regiment
of the Prussian guards and performed
their daily work there. About forty
locksmiths were told off to repair
their machines when necessary. The
men worked in two divisions continu-
ously day and night, one division re-
lieving the other. One division worked
from p. m. till a. m, whereupon
they were relieved by the other party,
which in its turn worked from 2 a. m.
till p. m. Two pauses of half an
hour each were made in each twelve
hours work. The men got their din
ner in the barracks-the one section
Immediately before settling down to
work, the other section Immediately
after their work. The wages given
conceded with the wages given in time
of warts for ten days, including
bread money. The 1.20O men made
$500 pairs of boots per day-that is to
say, infantry and cavalry boots and
lace shoes.
