FAST RAILWAY RUNS.
Record on Schedule Time Is Held
by French Trains.

Foreign railroad authorities like to cry
Pouf! when they speak of the high
speed OF American railroad trains The
Journal of German Engineers said re-
Gently: THE speed of railway trains is
in reality much less than in the popular
belief. The reports which from time to
time come from the United States would
create the belief that speed of moro
than /sixty-four miles an hour is abso-
lutely within reach. Recently an Amer
lean newspaper reported a trip on a line
between Philadelphia and Atlantic City.
where speed of even 107 miles an hour
had been attained Even if such reports
are true such forced time is in the nature
of doubtful experiment, and serves only
as an advertisement for the respective
railroads.
IF the schedule time of trains is taken
in consideration, the French railroads
come first and not, as is usually be-
lieved, those of England. The fastest
train In the world at present is one of
the French Northern railroad. 1t makes
the distance Of eighty-two miles between
Paris and Amiens, without stop, in one
hour and quarter, equal to a speed of
about siXty-f1ve miles an hour Another
train of the same road between Amiens
and Calais runs at a speed of f1fty-one
miles and hour; another between Paris
and Arras, and one between Paris and St.
Quentin, at fftyfive miles an hour The
time made on the Orleans railroad is
also fast. Two trains between Orleans
and st. Pierre make fifty-one miles and
fifty-seven miles an hour, respectively,
and three other trains make more than
f1fty-ffve miles an hour. On the French
Southern railroad there are not less than
six trains with a speed of more than fifty
six mics an hour. They run between Bor-
deaux and Angouleme, Bordeaux and
OAK, Angouleme and Poitters, and Orleans
and Tours. The time schedule Of French
trains contains not less than ten trains
which, in distances of more than sixty
two miles, make an average Of more than
f1fty-six miles an hour.
Compared with this record the English
railroads are considerably behind The
best time, Of sixty miles an hour, is made
on only one train. between Perth and For
fax, distance Of thirty-three miles A
train between Perth and Stirling makes
about f1fty-seven miles and hour, and one
between Perth and Aberdeen fifty-stx
miles an hour.
1.-THE German schedule does not give us
occasion to boast of our speed The Ger
man railroad management by the regula-
tons Of 1897, permits as highest speed fol
passenger trains with air brakes, under
specially favorable conditions, f1fty-siz
miles an hour. This is the maximum speed
permitted, but the average on even short
runs is much less. The fastest trains rur
between Wittenberg and Hamburg at g
rate of fifty-two miles an hour; between
Stendal and TIanover, fifty miles and hour
and between Berlin and Bitterfeld forty.
seven miles an hour"

Ann klumpke, who by the will of Rosa
Bonheur was her sole legatee, and Isl
dor Bonheur, the artists brother, a
sculptor, seventy years old; Rosa's sis
ter Juliette, and the widow and children
Of her brother -Auguste, a well known
cattle painter in his day. Her friends
were as much surprised as her relatives
when they heard that Miss Klumpke was
to receive all, because it was well known
that their friendship had been of only
two years standing.
Miss Klumpke is figure ard portrait
painter of whom a recent biographer
wrote: She is one of four daughters.
born of German parents and partially
brought up in San Francisco. Through
family straits the mother removed 10
Geneva, Switzerland, and opened family
boarding house there. Later on she set
tied in Paris, continuing in the same bus
mess and was we'll patronized by the first
American families. In Paris the daughter,
Ann, studied painting. The other sisters
devoted themselves to music and medi-
cine. Dorothea became an accomplished
astronomer, and now holds a position In
the observatory"
In speaking Of her, an acquaintance
said: Some years ago Rosa desired to
procure an American Wild horse. She ap-
piled to a Western dealer for such an
animal. Not having one in his stock, he
asked John Arbuckle, Of Brooklyn; to
sell him such horse from his ranch in
the West. When Mr.. Arbuckle learned
that the horses was intended for Rosa
Bonheur. hesHberally ordered one of the
finest specimens to be sent her free of
any expense; Rosa Bonheur gratefully
acknowledged the gift, afterward sending
him a fine study Of the animal. She also
| invited him. should he ever come to
France. to visit her at her home at By
near Fontainebleau.
"In course of time Mr.. Arbuckle went
abroad witlHihis family, and lived at Mrs.
Klumpke's house. On going to visit the
great artist, as invited he employed Ann
| to accompany him as an interpreter but
no particular intimacy ensued from this
and another introduction. AfterWard Miss

The works of Rosa Bonheur which re-

death were sold IN Paris last week at
high prices, and the artistic world paid
close attention to the sale and envled the
people who secured the prizes In order
that the various works might be properly

catalogue was prepared by the authori-

the artist as she appeared a short time
before her death, and handsome repro

A copy of the catalogue, which Is in

Last winter 1t became known that
Miss Klumpke was a regular resident at
BY, where she painted another portrait
of Rosa. She accompanied the great ar
fist on her annual visit TO M. Gambart
at his villa at Nice, and there a good
portrait Of the trio was made. A few
weeks after this visit the great artist

M. Gambart was the original purchaser

Firemen's Ball.

of the city building was by far the
most brilliant the city has witnessed
for many a day. In the neighborhood
of I25 tickets were sold and nearly 100
couples were in atteneance. Music

prompting were excellent.
The hall had been beautifully decor

the affair proved credit to the var

assemblage repaired to the Catholic
parsonage where the ladies of the

more time. 1t would be practically
impossible for him to prepare in less

T. B. O'Brien, attorney for thecom
mission, said the hearing must go on
under the original resolution adopted
last January, and that it was neces-
sary for the commission to get through
with iron ore rates ana clean up its
docket for the incoming commission
Speaking more specifically, he stated
that he had looked into the earnings
of the Duluth & Iron Range and that
he had satisfied himself that the
roads earnings were vastly in excess
OF what is usually regarded as just.
The commission then retired for a
conference Upon its return it was
announced that a majority had decid-

protested vigorously, but the decision
was made to stand and the hearing

The Ore Rate Case.

The three iron ore carrying roads
made vigorous fight before the rail-
road commission to have the hearing
of the rate case go over sixty days.
While it is not thought that that they
thought of the present commission
next month. it was generally felt that
the delay asked could not be granted
Members of the present commission
were not little surprised at the re-
Quest of the railroad attorneys. The
former asked if sufficient notice
had not been given. 1t was pointed
out that in the opinion of the commits
sion the iron ore roads were included
in the notices sent out last January
regarding merchandise rates. but the
roads were unable to see it that way.
Frank B. Kellogg, representing the
Duluth s. Iron Range. urged sixty
day postponement. He had acted in
the rate hearing two years ago, but
he held that the testimony used in
that case could not be applied in the
one pending. He held that cenditio.s
had completely changed.
Then General Counsel Grover spoke
for the Eastern Minnesota. No com.
plaint. he said, had been made upon
existing rates by shippers, and there
fore the commission had no jurisdic
Ition. He asserted that the patrons OF

Fdering in tile wilds of Wisconsin have
been mistaken for deer and killed. A
dozen more have been seriously
wounded and the season lasted but
twenty days. At that rate the NOR
tally would be but 216 men IA year,
which would make deer hunting in
Wisconsin almost as dangerous as
soldering in the PHILIPPINES, barring
the disease risk. The Minnesota
record is not quite as bad but it is
bloody enough.
In order that they may lose no
chance Of getting venison, there are
hunters who always fire at a rustIing
of the bushes or IL flash of white in
the distance. With the long range
rifles now in vogue a bullet can be
sent with some accuracy a great deal
farther than the human eye can see
with any degree of certainty. So it
happens that a movement IN the
shrubbery is made the target of the
greedy huntsman and he discovers too
late that he has put bullet through
a fellow sportsman. OF course thSse
killings are accidental in every ms
anee. bat-inseme~ the aeeideal
is clear case of homicidal reckless
ness and the law should take the
guilty ones incharge,
