BY Height, Not by Age.

Nearly every one knows that the
rule on railways trains and other pub
lie conveyances which provides for the
carrying free of children under five
years old, and of charging half fares
for those between the ages of five and
twelve, often results in statements
from the parents which are as trying
to a normal conscience as the affidavits
made by many tourists regarding
dutiable goods among their belong.
ings.
Sometimes these answers result in
unpleasant controversies between con-
ductors and passengers, but usually
our national tact and good nature help
along the adjustment without undue
friction. In parts of Europe they
have way of fixing this matter so
that no one has cause to quarrel
about it.
Instead of going by child's age, as
to what rate of fare it shall pay, they
so by size. The collector is provided
with tive-eoot rule, and he rates the
children by this. Any child under
twenty-four inches in height travels
free, while those who measure be.
tween twenty-four inches and tifty-one
inches pay half fare. All who meas.
ure more than four feet three inches
pay full fare. New York Sun.

One of Chicago's music teachers, a
Frenchman, went to Cuba as bugler in
an Illinois company. Since his return
he has had some difficulty in building
up profitable class, and for that rea-
son he has been compelled to accept a
number of unpromising pupils.
The other week the patience bf the
teacher became exhausted in tie case
of one pupil, the daughter of North
Side board of trade man. In a mo-
ment of recklessness the Frenchman
summoned all the English at his com
mand and wrote the following note to
the father of the girl who was not

"Dear Sir: 1t regrets me, indeed,

The Economy of Rubbers.

Rubbers are prodigious money
savers-in two ways: they save shoe
leather and doctors bills. The hest
shoes in the world soon crack and go
to pieces if You wear them in the rain
and snow and slush. A pair of SO
shoes with rubbers will outwear a pnir
of S12 shoes without rubbers. And
as for doctors bills, 50-cent pair oi
rubbers would have saved many a
hundred dollar doctors bill, to say
nothing of the discomfort of being sick
and the danger of pneumonia or con.
sumption or grip.

AN IRRESISTIBLE IMPULSE.
Fatal and Destructive Consequences of q
Train Disoatchcr's Conscious Error.

Fatal and Destructive Consequences of q
Train Disoatcher's Conscious Error.
A singular psychological phenom.
enon occurred at Hagerstown, Nd,
the other day. Governed by some
impulse which he cannot explain and
could not control, the train dispatcher
on the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad at
that point committed ca error of which
he was fully conscious at the time and
which was followed by fatal aud de-
structive consequences. He says that
he simply could not help it. No. 10
freight was coming down the road at
full speed, with right of way. The
track was open, the signals were all
properly set. and if the dispatcher
had gone to sleep or left his post or
turned his back and looked out of the
window the train would have passed
on to its destination aud all would
have been we'll; but, prompted by
some irresistible influence, he stepped
across the tower. seized the handles
of one of the levers and threw a switch
which turned the train upon another
track occupied by an idle locomotive,
only few yards away. When the
engineer of the freight saw that the
switch was turned he blew an alarm
on his whistle and reversed his
throttle, but the heavy train of twenty
four loaded cars was coming down o
grade at speed of sixteen miles an
hour, and struck the dead engine with
tremendous force. The fireman
jumped. The engineer attempted to
do so, but was caught in some manner
and killed. One of the brakemen was
thrown off car and so badly injured
that he has since died. Both engines
were practically destroyed and $780,
600 worth of freight was so badly
damaged that the company had to pay
for it.
The train dispatcher was man of
middle age, temperate habits, good
judgment and had been in the service
twenty years without getting a mark
against him. No dispatcher OF opera
tor on the road had better reputa-
ton or was considered more reliable,
yet he says that he knew he was doing
wrong when he pulled the lever and
was unable to resist the impulse that
impelled him. He made no effort to
evade the responsibility OF excuse his
conduct. When he saw the disaster
he had caused he threw himself down
on the floor of the tower and cried
like child. He offered himself for
any punishment that might be i'm
posed, has been indicted by the Grand
Jury and will plead guilty to the
charge of manslaughter at the next
term Of court. Record. ~.

Make-BeIieve NIcteorology.

Whatever may be the state of the
weather outside, the stage manager
within can bring about rain and hail,
wind, OF thunderstorm at will; and
the illusion is SO complete as to some
times make nervous members of the
audience lnsensibly shudder. Hail
and rain are represented by closed
wooden cylinder about six feet long,
which is obstructed inside by various
cross-pieces, a quart of peas complet-
ing the arrangement. By turning
this cylinder first one way and then
the other, the peas rattle through it
with close imitation to the sound of
heavy rain on a roof.
The wind arrangement consists of
a wheel of about two feet diameter,
set in frame like that of o grind
stone. This wheel is furnished with
ribs on its periphery somewhat like
the floats of waterwheel, and drawn
tightly over these ribs is q piece of
thick silk. When the wheel is turned
the ribs rub against the silk, and by
turning the handle first quickly and
then slowly, a very good imitation of
the soughing of the wind can be pro-
duced. lightning eau easily be imi'
tated by chemical or electrical means,
and the usual mode of producing
thunder is by shaking large sheet of
flexible iron plate. A snowstorm is
