THE HUMBLE HERO.


for statistics figures that "in year
there are killed on American rails
way trains but one person out OF
every 2,627,474 passengers car>
ried." He argues from this that
one is safer on a railroad train than
in his own house.
This may be true as applied to
passengers, although we always
feel safer at home than when hit>
ting the high places on a cannon>
ball express. However, the dan>
ger OF travel is not to the. passen-
ger. but to the men who operate
the trains.
1t would be possible to tabulate
a list Of fatalities and injuries to
employees OF lines entering this city
that would be absolutely terrifying.
We might instance the RioGrande.
which is considered one Of the best
conducted, safest and most success
full railway lines on the continent.
Within the past two years, OF the
six passenger engineers running
into this city on that road. two
have been killed and two seriously
injured. 1t is possible that one OF
the latter may die, in which case
the death rate for two years would
swell to fifty per cent.
On the other divisions Of the Rio
Grande the fatalities, while not so
great. have not been far behind the
figures instanced. The fatalities
among the crews on the other
roads, the Midland and RioGrande
Western, might not be so heavy,
but the percentage Of injured would
probably prove even larger.
or course the post OF danger is
in the front Of the train, and the
figures we have quoted apply to
those most exposed. The firemen
are in as much peril as the engines
ers, and should be figured on the
same basis.
We hear of the perils of the bat
tleheld, but it is doubtful if the civil
war that sustained death rate of
fifty, or even thirty per cent. dur,
ing two years Of its service. The
Colorado regiment, now on its way
from Manila, which has been fight
ing off and on for year, which
was unused to a tropical climate
and has had miserable sanitary
conditions to contend with, has
suffered a death rate in that time OF
about one per cent Proceeding on
this estimate we And that the ems
gineers and hremen OF this division
of the RioGrande have faced dan
ger twenty times greater than the
soldiers who went to Manila and
are coming back with laurels on
their brows.
But there are no laurels for these
men Of the rail. If fortunate
enough to be insured, their fami>
lies may collect the money paid
for by their lives, or they may go
to the railway hospital if injured.
This is about the extent Of the priv
ileges accorded them. The injured
is apt as not to come out Of the
hospital with his job gone, himself
crippled for life and the poor house,
instead Of a home for heroes, star
ring him in the face.
And yet we have heard it said
that railroad men are overpaid!

The Jubilee.

Tue Jubilee of 1899 came, left Its
pleasing memoirs and has gone the
way Of all those before them. 1t is
generally agreed to have been the best
one yet held. 1t is doubtless 80 from
financial standpoint, and 80 far as
we have heard expressions from those
capable of judging, from an artistic
standpoint also. Owing to the fact
that the date was fixed two weeks
earlier than usual, the school chorus
contests were omitted, since they
could not be taken from their exani-
nations for drill In most Of the con-
tests the number of entries was re-
duced, out the skill and art of the con-
testants were of higher order. In
other words, it takes a higher degree
of art to enter the contest now than it
did a few years ago.
The evening concerts were as line
entertainments as one could wish to
hear and the audiences that listened
to them could not be larger unless the

The ancients believed that rheumatism
was the work Of demon within a man.
Any one who has had an attack OF sciatic
or inhammatory rheumatism will agree
that the inhiction is demoniac enough to
warrant the belief. II has never been
claimed that ChamberIain's Pain Balm
would cast out demons, but 1t will cure
rheumatism, and hundreds bear testi-
mony TO the truth Of this statement. One
application relieves the pain, and this
quick relief which, it affords is alone
worth many times its cost. For sale by
all druggists.

Street Cars Burn.

Saturday morning, about 2 O'Clock,
the DIE ladoies we're called TO stop u
blaze In the street Car oh Dis, The
building WAS but slightly damaged but
most OF the cars were considerably.
Three we're left standing on the track
that night. but all the others belong
ing to the company we're more or less
scorched. All were burned in the
roofs. None were damaged below the
seats, and there the most burned were
only slightly blackened and the varnish
blistered From four or five the roofs
were entirely gone save a misshapen
mass Of tin. To some of these the
side curtains still hung, but slightly
dlscolored; Others these curtains were
burned Off at the roof and on still
others they hung In tatters. The most
of them showed the side frame work
partially burned. These circumstances
are peculiar Some advance the the
DRY that they we're set on fire by
lightning, and while It is difficult to
tell what tricks lightning will play,
this theory seems untenable. Incen-
diarism then Is the only remaining eX-
PLANTATION for the origin Of the fire.
We understand the company has
offered $3.50 for the arrest OF the
culprit.
The cars have all been placed in the
different shops Of the city for repair
end some have already been returned to
their accustomed places. No insur-
ance WAS carried on either building or
cars.
