Locomotives at Paris Fair.

Reviewing the locomotive exhibit at
Paris as a whole, | think the points
which strike one most forcibly are:
~ The enormous preponderance
of compund type of engines over the
simple high pressure type.
(2)The comparative scarcity of &C.
centricities in design.
(3)The immense increase in size and
weight of locomotives since the last
exhibition.
'(4)The specially huge size and power
of certain Russian engines.
(5)The almost universal employment
of the coupled wheels in express en-
gines, and the consequent all but COM
plete disappearance Of the single-driver
type
(6)The large augmentation of heat
ing surface and of steam pressure.
These were the points which struck
me the most in my general survey of
the exhibition. On the whole, they
represent the principle of development
in locomotive practice. They tend in
the direction of increased haulage
power, rather than in that Of any at
tempted addition to existing possbili-
ties in respect of maximum speeds

Hideous Pullman Car Furnishings
Are Copied by the Uncultured.
There is a man somewhere in the
employ of the Pullman Palace Car
Company who has much to answer
for" writes Edward Box, in the
Ladies' Home Journal. HE is the
official who selects or decides the
furnishings and hangings of the COM
pany's cars. Probably no single man
in this country has the opportunity for
so direct and helpful an influence in
the extension of good taste in fur
nishings. Instead, he perpetrates
upon the furnishing schemes which
even rival those which we see in the
homes of the most unintelligeat &C
the new-rich The chief injury which
the furnishing of the modern Pullman
car works is the wrong standard
which is set for those who are not
conversant with what is artistic. The
new-rich come into these cars and ac-
cept the hideous effect as the standard
of people of taste. have been told by
furnishing firms that they are often
asked by those who have suddenly
come into the possession OF money that
certain effects which they have seen in
Pullman drawing-room cars shall be
duplicated in their homes. These
people, knowing no better, accept what
they see in the cars which are sup
posed to be patronized by people OF
means, as reflective of prevailing
as inharmonious as it is possible for
the mind of man to concoct, have thus
been transferred to the homes of the
people, and here the injury is done"

HOW HE FELT ABOUT
Could Not Help but Sympathize in
This Case.

"Of course" remarked the proud
father of six children, there is moth
ing in all the world that makes a man
so sincerely happy as to have around
him whole houseful of registering
children, every one of them tickled
plumb to death when he comes home at
night, and every one of them wanting
to climb all over him at one and the
same time Still, it is possible that
there may be an embarrassment of
riches, as the French say, of even this
sort, and when a baby is of the
squalling kind he sometimes thinks he
would almost commit a crime for the
sake of five or six minutes of peace and
quiet. A friend of mine, who lives in
a fiat, is the father of regular, four
time squaller and there was an Incl
dent at his home the other evening
that has caused his wife to look upon
him with suspicion. Albert is one OF
tie mildest hammered men that ever
lived. Across the hall from the fiat
live two bachelor friends of his. and
you know Bachelors are not overly
partial to babies with unrestrained
lungs. The other afternoon his wife
came in where he was reading, or try
ing to, and she was considerably
wrought up"
I've got no use for those two
friends of yours across the hail. she
said"
Why not, my dear? he responded
in his usuai mild manner"
Because, when Willie was crying
awhile ago one of them said, oh, shoot
the baby"
Oh, did he? said the father rails
ing his eyebrows, after the manner Of
some people expressing surprise or
resentment or some other emotion"
Yes, he did, repeated the fond
mother"
:" And what did you say to that?' he
inquired with a half smile"
What could say? she asked, the
anger Showing in her face"
Really, / don't know, my dear
hesitated her husband, but / thought
possibly you might have said you
didn't have any gum"
She couldn't say a word; she didn't
try to; she just looked at him in
speechless establishment and went out
of the room"

If Love Be One.

TIN les are black, the winds are bold,
TN road is rough and long;
But what are clouds and stony ways
When hearts are full of song?
And two there be who walk life's path
Unheeding wind or weather,
And niinding but your merry spTriitte
Who binds their hearts together.
All ways are smooth, all days arc
bright,
With him for guide and sun;
And three are always company
If Love be one,
The road is smooth, the wind is soft,
The sky is clear o'erhead;
But what are pleasant ways and days
To those whose hearts are dead
And what is song that fills the ears
But can no farther go?
And what is light that eyes can see,
But souls can never know?
All, two there be that walk life's path
AS though they walked alone;
For two are never company
II Love be gone!

King Humbert and Verdi.

He was a man without any literary
tastes, who seldom or never read any
books, and took absolutely no part in
tAe Intellectual movement of modern
Italy Neither had he any taste for
the drama. It was said of him that he
never entered the theater in his life;
but this is an exaggeration, for upon
ceremonial occas ,onS he has entered
the royal box. Che of these rare
visits was made recently when the pro-
duction of SignOr Verdis Falstaff was
made the occasion of a national de-
monstration. The king was present
in the royal box, and the performance
from the beginning was an immense
success. When the second act was
over, the King said: There is now no
doubt as to the success of the piece;
let us send for Signor Verdi" Can act of
homage which was usually paid to the
successful author only at the end OF
the play. Verdi was duly sent for,
and when he appeared in the royal box
the unprecedented honor of summons
befare the close of the performance
was enthusiastically applauded as tsti-
flying the honor in which the king
held the composer. The pproval which
signalized the summons to the royal
box was considerably abated when the
curtain rose for the third act and it
was discovered that the king had left
the theater He had anticipated the
call to the author simply in order to
escape from performance which
bored him.-Review of Reviews.

English Motor Vehicles.

In America and on the continent
engineers have confined themselves
almost exclusively to the construction
OF the lighter passenger cars, but in
the wounded French soldiers. he says:
England the heavier type of autowagon
has received the greater attention. 1t
has not, however, been until the clos
ing years of the nineteenth century
that practical success in the manu-
facture of these self-propelled freight
vehicles has been attained. This un-
doubtedy is in great measure due to
the rudimentary condition of the en-
gineering industry the imperfect state
OF the roads, and the hostility OF pub
lie opinion. Experience is gradually
showing the necessity of economy and
simplicity in cnstructional details, for
where some of the vehicles contain
air condensers fitted with elaborate
radiating arrangements, air-circulating
fans, induced draught fans, and vari-

CHINESE READY FOR TERMS.
Peace Will Prevail as Soon as Allies
Shall State Terms.

Shall State Terms.
II. T. Bosnian OF Shanghai arrived
in San Francisco last week and sub
mitted to the questionings of re-
porter. Mr.. Bosnian is one of the
wealthiest merchants of the empire,
and he had an interview with Ii
Flung Chang, with whom he is in
innate, the day before he left Shang-
hal. In this interview the whole
Chinese situation was gone over be-
tween them. Mr.. Bosnian speaks
Chinese and English with equal
fiuency, and was waited on by del
egation of influential Chinese of this
city upon his arrival at the Occiden-
tai hotel, where he is staying.
Bosnian has been a resident of
Hong-Kong for twenty-five years and
has branch houses of his business in
every treaty port in China. In re-
gard to Chinese affairs in the orient
he said:
CAS- soon as the allied powers will
state the terms upon which a settle
ment can be made the sooner VIII
peace prevail The Chinese are
ignorant of what is wanted, and |
think they will be glad to come to
terms unless the terms are altogether
unreasonable. l had long talk with
Lii Hung Chang the day before the
steamer sailed, about Aug A or 5. At
that time Ii Hung Chang had not
haar annOipfod noono
but expected to be, as there were
memorials being prepared to be sent
to the throne by nine different vice
roys and governors asking that he be
appointed. Since then / have learn
ed that the appointment has been
made.
Iii is the strongest. man in China
today and the only ore who is cap
able of dealing with the present
crisis. There is absolutely no
truth in the statement that Ii Huns
Chang was ever in favor CT the
boxer movement. He is too shrewd
to think for an instant that China
is able to go to war successfully
with the whole world. If it were with
one nation it might be different, but
China cannot fight five or six.
There were just six men who were
responsible for all the trouble in
China today-Kang vi, Tung Flu
Hsiang, Hsu Tung, Chao Sho Chiu,
Chi Hsiu and Jung Luh. The first
two were the principals. Prince
Tuan was their nominal head, made
so in order to counterfeit the influ-
ence of Prince Chang, the father of
the heir apparent. These men were
the powerful ones about the throne
and through their ignorance precipi-
tated al the trouble. If Lii Hung
Chang had been viceroy of the pro-
vince of Chee-Lee, as formerly, there
would not have been any boxer ris-
ing.
Iii assured me of the safety of the
foreign ministers before l left and
was confident, so far as they were
concerned, there was nothing to fear.
The troops were just then leaving for
Pekin. Ii Hung Chang is not a man
to shirk any duty and he will see his
nation out of this difficulty. | do not
expect any trouble from the Chinese.
