VICTIM OF TYPHOID FEVER.

Lieutenant Brumby, One OF Dewsy's
Omcsrs, Dies at Washington.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-Lieutenant
Thomas NJ. Brumby, flag lieutenant to
Admiral Dewey during the Manila
campaign, who has been i'll with ty-
phoid fever for several weeks. died at
Garfield hospital shortly after 6 p. m.
The death of Lieutenant Brumby,
while not unexpected, was a great
shock to Admiral Dewey. The rela-
tions of the two men for several years
past have been very intimate and q
strong friendship had grown up be-
tween them. Lieutenant Brumby went
out to the Asiatic station with the adj
miral and had been there with him un-
til they both returned to the United
States several months ago. In his
capacity as flag lieutenant to the adj
miral he was thrown with his chief
practically all the time and acted as his
personal representative in many mat
tiers of detail delegated to him by the
commanding officer. Lieutenant Brum-
by was a Georgian by birth and was A
years OF age. His father was colonel
in the Confederate army and has been
dead some years, but his aged mother
still resides at Marietta, Ga.

He Had Not Changed.

/ was in a barber shop presided over
by a colored artist the other day and
while was being shaved there came
in colored hack driver who demanded
So that the barber owed him for hack

''Come in mex week an I'll have it,
said the barber, as he continued to
scrape.
But the creditor got on his ear.
Look a-hyar?" said he ''Tze gittin

With that the barber took the middle
Of the floor and declared himself.

What Sixty Miles an Hour Means to
the Locomotive.


1t all sounds simple in the recital.
The wonder of the thing comes into
view only when one reflects on the
speed and nicely with which cumbrous
parts are made to do their duty. The
piston and connecting bar Of modern
locomotive weigh some 600 pounds.
When the speed is 60 miles an hour,
these parts travel back and forth five
times a second. Ten times a second,
at the end of every stroke, the piston
head is at rest. 1t must pass from this
condition to velocity Of 1900 feet per
minute in one-twentieth of second.
The drive wheels measure more than
a rod at every revolution, but when
going 60 miles an hour they must turn
more than 300 times minute.
Sixty miles an hour is the merest
commonplace to the mind of the up
to date railroad man, but it means
other things besides those described
that are wonderful to the outsider. 1t
means steam pressure blow of 20
tons on each piston head every tenth
of a second. 1t means that up in the
cab the fireman is throwing into the
furnace two-thirds of a ton Of coal
every hour. No. 900 burns coal faster
than ten men can mine 1t. 1t means
two quarts Of oil every hour to keep
her Journal boxes creased and every
thing running smoothly. 1t means that
the engine with it's half dozen cars and
load of human freight is moving
through space with twice the power Of
a shot from 100 ton gun. 1t means
that the engineer has worked her up
to the point where she can use every
once of steam. that he is coaxing her
as jockey urges his mount In a fierce
race. and yet it means that he is ready
at seconds notice to move the re-
versing lever and apply the airbrakes
that will stop the mighty avalanche
within the distance that it covers as
1t stands on the tracks.-Earl w.
Mayo In Ainslee's.
The Theaters In Japan.
The theaters are the very places to
study the japanese. In many theaters
the entire house is divided by rails
into square pens 4 by feet, intend
ed for four Japanese, but often con-
tanning half a dozen. The men and
women are barefoot, walk the narrow
dividing rails to reach their reserved
'.seats." The patrons kneel within
these square pens, or, when there are
no pens, they squat upon the floor in
little circular groups and smoke, eat,
drink fan fhomSolvpS and chatter
Many come in and go out at random.
Children run to and fro. Frequently
the spectators bring luncheon and pass
the day within the theater, the play
continuing uninterruptedly.
The stage, which in some theaters
revolves to change scenes, has two de-
tached projections three feet wide, ex-
tending among the audience. Upon
these projections the performers run.

reclIlng anu aClnS.
Their acting is sufficiently curious.
A villain slain walks off the stage, a
Jap mops with dirty cloth the chief
actors face while he is speaking. The
prompter. dressed all in black, gown.
hood and girdle, will follow the actor
all around the stage. Other persons.
also in black. run to and fro across the
stage. Those costumed in black are
supposed to be invisible. Stage car
penters and helpers often stand upon
the stage and gaze and laugh at the
actors, and so On.-Baltimore Sun.

New York, November Il.
Stocks-Southsrn Pacific was again
strong at the opening. The trading In 1t
was simply enormous, but although Lon
don houses were buyers. their purchases
were not nearly az large ~ they were
yesterday. The rest of the marker opsned
strong In sympathy with the higher
prices from London this morning. but
after the fret Is minutes Q good deal OF
liquidation made Its appearance and
gradual reaction took place. However,
at no time were there any indications OF
weakness, and on the whole ths buying
was looked upon las better thnn selling.
Manhattan was active and stronger on
the exposure Of the absurd convention
on the part of Fire Chief Croker that In.
stallation of the third rail would consti-
tute danger to firemen In case OF fire
In properties adjoining the elevated
structure. Atchison preferred was strong
on good buying. The undertone OF the
Changers was good.
The money market WAS watched with
considerable interest, but was not OF
sensational character. probably the bulk
OF today's loans were made at or 8 Per
cent. Towards the close, some belsted
borrowers made their appearance and the
absence Of any large sums resulted In q
ten per cent rata The whole money sit
uation continues TO be puzzle to Wall
street and the common remark ID. that
either last weeks money market was
mani pulated or this weeks 10. The bulls
insist that present quotations reflect act
uAl conditions; that money Is flowing In
from the Vest and that the heavy liqui-
dalton of last week was not fully retsot-
ed In Saturdays bank statement. They
also continue to hint at gold importa-
tions. There Is at present absolutely no
reason to look for gold importations-all
recognized foreign bankers assert that
they see no possibility Of making such
transactions at q profit, but on the other
hand there is q possibility that certain
interests in the str, ct who are deeply
committed to the long side may make
importations at loss In order to make
favorable effect upon the sentiment.
However, importations. or no importa-
tions even the most sauguine advocates
Of higher prices admit that there Is very
littls chance OF anything lower than q
per cent for some time to come. The
market closed rather hoayy, influenced
by the ten per cent rate OF the last half
hour. American tobacco WAS oonspicu-
ously weak On realization.
