VIII not be many years before every lead
ing railroad in the United States will have
us own sleeping coaches. Some of the
largest roads have them now. This is
| caused by the sleeping car shops fixing
arbitrary rates-the companies must ac-
ceDt their uniform rates or do without
| sieepers- Consequently the roads which
are in a position to do so are building
| their own carshops and constructing their
own sleepers. The volume of business has
! largely increased within the past few
| years" Mr.. Wagner is a nephew of the
! inventor of the celebrated Wagner sleep
| ing car. and has made a study of railroad
travel and its equipment.

There is some Improvement in the
make of playing cards." said Charles b.
Helfenstein. representative of the card
manufacturing house of Andrew Dough-
erty, at the Kenyon last evening. The
cards are made of better paper, and are
thinner than formerly. There is recent
Improvement also. in the make of cards
for private clubs. We supply about three
1ourths of the private clubs in the United
States and rarely take an order from
club for less than 81 600. Our cards are
not so thick and bulky as those of En-
glish make, and the English are begin
ming to prefer our make. We are making
larger shipments to Porto Rico and Cuba
than heretofore. Mr.. Dougherty, senior
who began business in 1S4S invented the
machine for cutting cards, and also the
process for printing them in four colors
at one time. Formerly they were printed
in one color at time, and each number
was printed on one sheet of paper. For
instance, one sheet contained aces, an
other deuces, and so on Now we print
an entire deck on one sheet. Mr.. Dough-
erty refused to print faro cards, and his
still refuse to print faro cards. The Sc
nior Mr.. Dougherty, who has retired,
worth about sl0,000.00O, still lives in New
York City, aged IA years. Some of the en-
ployees have worked in the factory for
forty years.
