HOT WATER AS MOTIVE POWER
Practical Tests Are to Be Made on
the New York Central.

The utilization OF hot water as a
stored power on street railway and su-
burban steam lines is believed by some
of the most advanced motive power en-
gineers to be the long 4Ooked-for ecOnO-
mical method of meeting the require
nentS of street and steam railroad ser
vice. The waste of energy and the cost
of generation of electricity have caused
the most elaborate experiments to be
made of any power which would lessen
the cost of operation. Compressed air is
being experimental with, but so far
actual practice has not made is as feas-
ible as electricity, inasmuch as after
the air is compressed it must be re-
heated to secure the best service.
car has been successfully operated
under the most adverse conditions on
the New York Central railroad at a
speed of 25 miles per hour on up and
down grades. AS a result of these eX-
periments, a standard railroad coach is
being equipped and will shortly be in
operation on the same road. The eff
cheney of the method has been fully es-
tablished and only the working out of
the system in actual practice remains.

PLENTY OF ROOMS.
Kansas City Well Prepared to Enter
tain All Visitors.

Kansas City. June 23.-An incident
shows how well Kansas City is prepared
to handle large parties of visitors to the
convention, even after the hotels have
been filed An option was given for
two days to an eastern marching club
for accommodations for 500 persons
within a radius of three blocks of the
corner of Tenth street and Euclid ave
nue..
Ten minutes ride from Convention
hall with only one hotel of any size the
location is strictly outside of the hotel
and business district without being con-
sidered far out. Three car lines reach
portions of the district included in this
option and all of them lead direct to the
business part of the city. One hall is
to be filed with cots, but the rest of the
visitors will be cared for in houses if
the agreement considered can be made.
For $500 a night 500 people viii be ac-
commodated with comfortable sleeping
quarters and this makes allowance for
some few persons who may not be able
to furnish the rooms as they now agree
to do.
In tabulating the work of the can

a Mile Rate.
Recently Announced For the G..
A. r. Encampment.
DECIDE ON ONE FARE.
Which Is Equivalent to One and
One-HaIf Cents a Mile.
Complications Liable to Result
From Juggling of Rates.

Chicago. June 23.-Grand Army rates
from the west to Chicago are to be
advanced from cent a mile to one
fare for the round trip. This was
agreed upon at a meeting of the ex-
ecutive officers of the western roads
in this city. The one-fare rate was
originally agreed upon by the general
passenger agents, but after it was in
effect the Wisconsin Central announced
that it would sell tickets to the en-
campment at 1 cent per mile, this on
account of a similar rate that officers
of the road alleged was being quoted
secretly by one of it's councillors.
Officers of all the other western lines
then asserted that they would use the
cent mile rate and business has been
contracted on this basis for several
weeks.
Serious complications are liable to
arise as q result of the juggling of
the Grand Army rates by the managers
of the western roads, as old soldiers and
visitors that have not yet contracted
with the railroads undoubtedly will pro-
test at being charged a higher rate
than has been offered and given to
those who have been contracted at the
cent a mile charge.

COST HER CONE FIFTY"
How a Colored Woman Failed to Get
Revenge IL Police Court.

Sadie Webb took her troubles to the
police and now she is sorry $1.50 worth
for that is the amount of costs her faith
er will have to pay for sueing John
Wade for assault. Sadie is a young wo-
man of color and she had been keep
ing company with John Wade, who has
a black shining face, a wealth of glis-
tening worries and a disposition to grin.
Sadie and John had a lovers quarrel
about two weeks ago and that is what
led to the case in court
According to her story John had been
talking about her, so when they met on
the street the other evening Sadie re-
preached him and made inquiries as to
why he had been the bearer of false
tales Her questions were very pointed
and showed a good deal of spirit. John
attempted to pass but was met by a
swing on the jaw and then the fun be-
gan. Sadie's sister was present with a
knife but was prevented from using 1t
by a friend of Johns. When the smoke
of battle had cleared, Sadie picked her
self up out of the weeds and made the
usual threat of police.
In answer to questions at the police
court John said: "Yassir, know her. I
went with her about two months Rea-
son I quits cause she done been going
with married men. I never had no trou-
BILE on my min when I met her on the
street. She ask me what I been saying
bout her and say: GO on, got no time
for YOU She say, You don pass me.
and den she hit me. I never had no
fight with a girl and so pushes her, an
she done hol' on and we fall in the
weeds. That's all there was to it,
John was acquitted and Sadie's father
will pay the costs.
Cases of this kind, that is, cases
where some of the colored brethren try
to get revenge through the police court,
are frequent and the assessing of costs
to the plaintiff has a tendency to stop
suits when there is no case.

TIE RECENT GREAT FOOTBALL
GAME IN NORFOLK.
Chapel Hill. n. c., Nov. 26.-The
University of North Carolina football
team returned yesterday from Norfolk
and are busy answering the questions
Of the mass of students interested in
the great game. which was played Sat
urday.
While the game was in progress in
Norfolk there was a large and enthu-
saStic crowd in Chapel Hill hearing
the continuous telcgraphic reports of
the game, and the loyalty and true
spirit of the students expressed itself
with much enthusiasm at every mer-
tied play. For over two hours this
body was as interested In the reports
as were those who stood on the side
lines at League Park and cheered their
iaNorites on TO victory. but after fif-
teen minutes of the game had been
played it was seen that the record CT
the game would go down in the ath-
letic world as a defeat for Carolina.
The students, having seen and cheered
the practice games every day for the
past season, knew where the weak
places of the team We're but the gem
cral opinion was, that although it
would be Il closely contested game, u
C. would come out victorious AL
though we acknowledge to have been
beaten, we do with n feeling of regret,
recall the expensive fumbles and Ill
luck, which are likely to occur in any
game OF it's kind. But the motto OF the
entire college IS: "Whether I'm victory
or defeat we uphold the white and
blue That victory does not increase
nor defeat decrease our love for the in
stitution we are privileged to repre-
sent.
The members Of the team have
spoken of the royal manner in which
Norfolk received them. and were en-
couraSed in seeing the University col
ors so well represented in Virginia
city and it was such Virginian hospi
iality that made the u. n. Q. visitors
enjoy the trip so well. They expressed
themselves as having received as gen
tlemanly treatment on the Norfollx
gridiron as any played this season. and
the game will be remembered MS bay-
ing been played by gentlemen, and
consequently lacking the lower element
sometimes found on the contested
Sridiron.
