that great combinations, whether OF en-

A FREIGHT PROTEST.
Evidence That Rivalry Still Exists
Between Passenger and Freight
Men

The irrepressible conflict between the
freight and the passenger department
still goes on, says the Railway Age.
Who makes the reputation of the road
prices and an occasional cut rate says
the passenger MANI VINO earns three-
quarters of the revenue, makes friends
Of the merchants and manufa cturers.
and now and then, for the good of the
service. sacrifices more earnings in a
day than you can throw away in a
week? Tetorts the freight man The
passenger department doesn't Care TO
answer back. 1t is in favor with the
management nowadays and has moth
ing to complain Of But the freight
man grumbles over the extravaganza of
the Ornamental department" as he is
pleased TO call it. and wants to know
why the useful branch of the service
isn't better appreciated.
The latest grOwl is found in this is
sue from a freight man. He observes
much said and done about fast pas
Senger service but little said and Moth
ing done about fast freight service He
has discovered these formulae: Ex-
penses. 4 passenger. q freight; earn
ings. q freight, 4 passenger; attention
of operating department. 4 freight a
passenger He sees passenger service
accelerated and freight service retard-
ed; passengers rushed through on costly
trains, and freight held until the big
gest and sl0Wesr train can be made mp:
new passenger trains put on and a use
full local freight taken off OF set to un-
loading ballast en- route; time tables
changed on the advice OF the passenger
men, but no suggestions asked from
the freight department He hates TO
| see shippers kick because their freight
is delayed and go off to the rival road
| He believes that time counts in carry
I ing freight as well as people, and that
| the line that gives the quickest service
will get the bulk Of the business. There
/ Is practical sense in these suggestions.
Some roads do not need them: perhaps
some do. It IS a good sign when a man

BEAUTY OF THE GLACIER.
Scenes That Give One Visions of En-
chanted Landscnpe.

Scenes That Give One Visions or an En-
cbanted Landscape.
The fascination of a glacier are as
witching as they are dangerous. Apos-
tolic vision of a crystal city glorified
by light that never was on land or
sea" was not more beautiful that these
vast ice rivers, whose onward course is
chronicled not by years and centuries,
but by geological ages. With white
domed snow-corniceS wreathed fantas-
tic as arabesque, and with the CLASSY
walls of emerald grotto rejecting mil
lion sparkling jewels, one might be in
some cavernous dream-world or among
the tottering grandeur OF an ancient
city. The ice pillars and silvered pin
nacles, which scientists call seracs,
stand like the sculptured marble of
temples crumbling to ruin. Glittering
pendants hang from the rim of blush
chasm. Tints too brilliant for artists
brush CLEAN from the turquoise or
crystal walls. Rivers that flow through
valleys of ice and lakes, hemmed in by
hills of ice, shine with an azure depth
that is very infinity's self.
In the morning. when all thaw has
been stopped by the nights cold, there
is deathly silence over the glacial fields,
even the mountain cataracts fail
noiselessly from the precipice to ledge
in tenuous, wind-blown threads. But
with the rising of the sun the whole
glacial world bursts to life in noisy
tumult. Surface rivulets brawl over
the ice with n glee that is vocal and al
most human. The gurgle of rivers
flowing through subterranean tunnels
becomes n roar, as of a rushing, angry
sea. Ice grip no longer holds back
rock scree loosened by the nights
frost, and there is the reverberating
thunder of the falling avalanche.

Gardeners once Honored.

The term gardener implied much
more n few generations ago than 1t
does to-day. Young men paid heavy
premiums to get in as apprentices un-
der learned gardeners, and when at the.
end of the term they were invested
with the blue apron" most of them
would compare favorably in general in
telligence with the graduates of our
modern universities. OF these broadly
educated men n notable one, Louis
Menand. of Albany. New York, recent
ly passed away in his ninety-third year.
He was born in the province of Ber-
gundy, France, and maintained his in
terest in flowers and general affairs till
his death.

Her Husband Quit Preaching.

A minister had his salary cut down
500 year or so ago (and this was in
a western church, because his wife
wore n handsOmer gown than some of
the prominent women in the congrega-
ton. The reason was given openly and
the matter found its way into public
print. The fact that the wife's wealthy
aunt was the donor seemed to be of no
consequence, and the poor women her
self, irritated and mortified at the pub
licity given 10 her private affairs, sue
ceeded in persuadlng her husband to
withdraw from the ministry.-''A Min
