THREE LITTLE STORIES.

A handy German, who had served
his time to trunkmaker in Berlin,
started In business in New York in
Amsterdam avenue and painted his
own sign. 1t read thus: "Gustave
Fritz, maker of trunk sandbags." A
policeman called on him to examine
the sandbags and learned from the
frightened Teuton that he merely in
tended to announce himself as maker
of trunks and bags.
A distinguished Massachusetts cler-
gyman tells story at his own expense.
He was on tramp through the White
mountains with another clergyman tor
n companion. One day they mounted
the drivers seat of stage coach. AS
is often the case, the stage driver was
an interesting character, whose CONVEX
satiun abounoed in good stories. The
three speedily became friendly, and ii
was with reluctance that they parted

A professional nurse was remarkably
successful in the care of patients sut-
fering from smallpox, diph,Aeria, Or
pneumonia. In fact, she had never lost
patient with one of these complaints.
Not long ago. however, she had a
pneumonia case which was given up by
the physician, much to the nurses
chagrin. He cant live through he

when the nurse went to give the sick
man his medicine he only shook his
head. The distracted nurse saw her
proud record about to be broken and
she urged the patient to take his dose,
NO use" he murmured. We'll, sir,
said the nurse in despair, you've got

to laugh, took his medicine, and got

AUTOMOBILES IN FRANCE.

The Boston Herald publishes this ex-
tract from a private letter describing
the Paris automobiles: I'VE went 10
Fontainebleau, five in the party, for
breakfast, 40 miles in three hours, and
such ride. We came back by long
er route, As miles, in the same time,
through the forest at sunset and along
the Seine in the moonlight. Fancy
going 50 miles for breakfast and en-
joying it-that is, so miles by road.
l have always detested automobiles,
but for quick travelling they beat ev-
erything have ever tried. They have
the automobile coupes and victorias in
the streets here. I mean the public
ones. at the same tariff as the other
carriages.

ONLY THREE CARS ON A TRAIN.
Curves on the Congo Railroad Make
Short Trains Necessary.

Mr.. Putkamer, the governor of the
been making trip up the Congo en-
the railroad which was completed in
July last. He thinks the road is a
great achievement, and tells some in
teresting things about it. The COVER
nor was surprised to find that there
was not tunnel along the 325 miles
of the route, that the bridges span the
rivers without any supports in MD
stream and that in the mountainous
regions there are very many sharp
curves around which a locomotive is
not permitted to draw more than three
cars on one train. Passenger trains
run at the rate Of eighteen miles and
freight trains at the rate of ten miles
an hour. The passenger trains leave
each end of the route three times a
week. They meet midway at Tumba,
where they spend the night. No
trains are run in the night time, and
freight trains are sent out irreguArly
and only when there are two or three
car loads to be transported. Business
requires several freight trains week.
There is not single native village
along the route. The people do not
like the noise of the locomotive, or the
bush steamer" as the Kru boys call
the formidable machine, and so they
have moved back into the tranquility
of the country several miles away from
the track. Thousands of the natives,
however, are in the employ of the
Congo state making betterments in the
road, but they all live at the state sta
tons. The Bangala cannibals from
far up the river form the greater part
of the working force.
The great need on the upper Congo
is more steamboats,. All the trading
companies and some of the mission
stations have steamers of their own,
and the state has fleet of thirty boats,
but freight is constantly piling up
waiting for transportation. At Stan
ley Pool there are number of ship
yards where the steamboats, that come
from Europe in sections are put to-
gether, and all of these yards are now
scenes of the greatest activity. Most
of the engineers and mechanics are
Belgians, but there is sprinkling of
Norwegians and Swedes.
Horned cattle are now raised at va
rious places from Matadi, the starting
point of the railroad, 70 Stanley Pool,
and the whites in the interior are be-
ginning to have an abundance of fresh
beef. Many white women are living
with their husbands at Matadi, Tum-
ba and Stanley Pool, and seem to enjoy
very good health in this region, where
fifteen years ago the mortality among
the whites was very large. New York
