The rehabilitation of the Baltimore
and Ohio South Western Railway will
begin as soon as the frost is out of
the ground in the spring Just before
the line went into the hands of Re-
ceivers Harmon and Robinson large
quantity of material was purchased.
This will be Immediately delivered
and used to the best advantage. Forty
thousand tons of s5-pound steel rails
have been purchased, and enough will
be on hand on March LIST to enable
the Receivers to begin laying it at
five different points on the line. Each
mile of track will be carefully rebal-
lasted and placed In first-class condi-
ton. 1t will take 101 900 pairs of con-
tinuous rail joints for the forty thou
sand tons of rail. The two thousand
standard box cars and five hundred
steel coal cars recently ordered will be
delivered in March. Additional motive
power, in the shape of forty compound
freight engines. weighing $4,000
pounds, and five ten-wheel compound
passenger engines, weighing 1875, 900
pounds, is now being built by the Bald
win Locomotive Works. 1t is expected
that by the time the property is re-
organized and becomes the southwest
ern division of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad that it will be in
physical condition fully equal to the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.

SEA-BRED PIGEONS,
How to Get Good Service from Ship
to shore.

to shore.
Captain John r. Bartlett, U. s. N,
retired, chief OF the coast signal SER
vice during the war with Spain, has
reported to the department on the
value of carrier pigeons for signaling
purposes. The Baltimore Sun sum-
marizes the report as follows: That
experiments be made for the purpose
of training homing pigeons in connec-
ton with coast signaling, for the rea-
son that they offer a solution of the
problem of communication with yes
sells In the off-shore patrol feet. These
vessels would most probably operate
in districts having established bases,
and at such distance from the coast
and from the inshore patrol that visual
signaling would be impossible. A
homing pigeon service cannot be i'm
provised and be of any real value.
The birds must be Systematically and
patiently trained for year or two,
not only to equip the cotes with train
ed carriers for that locality, but to
furnish stock OF sea-bred breeders
EApcilintuId COleS SHOULD DC lOCdISu
at the base of naval coast defense dis
tricts, small vessel provided with a
carrier pigeon outfit, and an officer de-
tailed to develop this means of com
munication and superintend the sys-
tematic training OF the birds. Unless
this is done with intelligence for at
least year it would be useless to rely
upon 1t at all Such a system could
be economically inaugurated and could
be maintained at a comparatively
slight cost. A simple routine of drills,
exercises and reports based upon our
recent experiences could be readily
put into operation, and small rewards
or appropriate rating would stimulate
proficiency. In times of peace such
service would be of constant conven-
fence to this department and to the
maritime interests of the country, and
the constant practice would prepare
the men for the emergencies of war.
Attention is called to the fact that
every other maritime nation has such
a system, generally much more elabo-
rate than the one herein proposed or
ganized and operated under its naval
or maritime department.

Shells life has been so very un-
eventful during the absence that it
does not take long to recount the few
small incidents which have broken It's
monotony.
1T was so stupid of you to come,
remarks Ruby, during brief pause
in the dialogue going on between Mrs
Widen and Shell. 81 don't suppose
we shall any OF us be stopping here
more than a few days longer"
Mrs. Widen looks surprised.
How so? | have no intention OF
going home just yet, Ruby" she says
little tartly. THE cottage is taken
for two months, and since the rent
must be paid. we may as well make the
best of our bargain"
There is no best about 1t" grum-
bles Violet.
mo- indeed-it is a downright snare
and delusion," agrees Ruby. Since
even the Champley brothers couldn't
stand it there can be no wonder If we
run away"
81 don't think they grew tired of the
moor, says smell honestly.
IF not, why did they leave it?' de-
mands her sister defiantly.
Cant say" responds Shell; then,
after a pause, she continues sup
pose you know that they are going
abroad in few days"
Going abroad" repeats Ruby, in
tone of positive CONSERVATION. mo,
l had no idea of 1t; understood that
they were merely going back to
Champley House."
They are starting for Switzerland
In two or three days" says Shtll quiet
ly; "and l rather fancy they won't be
back till autumn"
I'm that case we may as well stop
where we are" observes Ruby, without
her ususal caution.
my dear Ruby, their movements
cannot in any way affect ours says
Mrs Widen, looking puzzled and a
trifie shocked.
mo, of course not" stammers Ru-
by, with momentary flush; only
promised Robert Champley in a way
to look after the children! and, since
he is going abroad, l should not ike
to leave them alone on the moor.
That nurse is a very illiterate person
i doubt If she can write-and OF
course he will want to hear how they
are getting on"
"Ahem!" calculates Violet suggest
lively, and then INDUCES in an amused
laugh.
Shell does not laugh, but turns with
impatient step from the room.

Where are you going, SHELF" asks
Ruby, glancing up from an elaborate
band of crewel- work, destined to trim
a morninggown
II am going over to Meadowcroft to
superintend Bob's donkey-ride. | prom
Used him yesterday | would come"
What folly You know he is never
allowed a donkey-ride unless he has
been particularly good; and when ask
Piper If he has been good enough to
have one, she invariably answers
No +"
Shell gives one of those low ripping
laughs of hers, which has in it a mock
ing ring.
Piper does not care for running
after donkeys-doubtless she considers
it mira dig. AS she knows that | al
ways do the running business and leave
her free, | invariably hear that the
children are deserving of a ride"
We'll, it's a bore any way" grum-
bles Ruby. II wanted you to cut out
my collar and cuffs, as l feel inclined
for a good days work"
THAT won't take five minutes"
laughs Shell, stripping off her wash
leather gloves and good temperedly
setting to the task.
When, some twenty minutes later,
she arrives at MeadowcroIC Farm she
finds the children established in hay
field near the house, and Piper no.
where visible.
Where is Piper?" asks Shell, sink
ing down in the fragrant hay.
Busy" answers, Bob, laconically.
Have you been good chlldren-good
enough for a donkey rider" pursues
Shell, smiling.
Don't know" responds Bob, with
placid Indifference pose not. Piper
boxed my ears this morning"
well, never mind" laughs Shell
"since Piper isn't here we can't ask
her-you shall have your donkey-ride
today, and then you'll be a good boy
tomorrow"
Don't want a donkey ride" re-
spends Bob stolidly; tell US story
instead"
Not want donkey-ride? Why.
what sort of boy do you call your
self" demands Shell, turning the
child round to laugh him out of what
she imagines to be a fit of the sulks;
then she becomes aware that Bob's
generally rosy face is pale and languid
looking-that his bright merry eyes
are dim and misty.
DO you feel ill?" asks Shell. think
ing that the child must have been al
lowed to eat something unWholesome.
Mono, falters Bob, with all a boys
reluctance to give in to physical suf-
fering; only my head aches rather"
With strange thrill at her heart
Shell turns to Meg The little girl is
sound asleep on a soft bed OF hay, her
attitude betokening thorough lassitude

from the light. Removing it gently,
