The special Southern Pacific train
carrying the Bostonians pulled into

Town of NoqOod.

A poet of the New Haven Register
thus describes the Clown of Nogood:"
My friend, have you heard of the town
OF Nogood,
On the banks of the River SLOW,
Where blooms the Waitawhile flower,
fair,
Where the ,Sometime orother scents the
air,
And the soft Goeasies grow?
It lies in the valley of Whststheuse.
In the Province of Letterslide,
That the Tired feeling is native there,
Its's the home of the reckless Idont-
care,
Where the Giveitups abide.
This town is further described as ly-
ing at the foot of Lazyhill. One has
only to fold his b lands and glide down
the slope of Weakwill's toboggan slide,
to be landed safely there. 1t is very
old town wrapt in the fog of idlers'
dreams and having streets paved with
discarded schemes. Among it's people
are college bred fools and rich m ems
heirs: from its motley crew only the
foolkiller is barred out. This dead
alive town is hedged about by the
mountains of Despair, and is the chosen
home of towards. All who would keep

ing place. must take II can and 1 will -

FOR AND AGAINST INSURANCE
Points Advanced In Favor Of And
Opposed To the New S. p. Insur-
aOCe Dian

The insurance proposition of the 5.
P company is not meeting with gen.
eral favor among employees on the Tue
son division and in Ell Paso.
Among the statements made against
the proposition are: The company may
change its rules without consulting
the men. The contemplated insur-
ance covers only part of the time, and
does not protect the insured all the
while. There are serious faults in the
schedule. 1t is likely to result in
serious Losses OF membership from me
several brotherhoods of those in the
railway service. The company does
not pay the money to keepup the In
snrance fund. but the men have to pay
il. Each man making application for
mem bership in the relief fund must
sign perpetual release freeing the
company from claims for damages on
account of defective equipment, or
other fault of the railroad company.
Most of the employees are already
carrying all the insurance they can at
ford. The employees who support the
ralief fund are to have the naming of
bat three directors, while four other
directors are to be selected by the COM
pany.
In behalf of the company it is said
that the new kind of insurance was
designed to protect the families of rail-
road men who did not of their own
Yolition attend to the matter. Argu-
msnts are introduced to refute the as
sertious that insurance on the railroad
company's plan would cost more than
corresponding protection IN other
companies. Another point presented
In the company's favor Is the conten-
ton that the company has the right to
employ men under such cOndi tions, Is
TO taking or not taking insurance, as 1t
sees fit.
IN LOS ANGELES TOO
In Los Angeles, says the Times of
that city, a meeting of employees OF the
Southern Pacific was held in the hall
az Main and Sotello streets to consider
the effect the relief department pro-
posed by the Southern Pacific would
have on the men in the service OF the
company. William Klaussman presid-
ed, and w. f. Shelley acted as seq
rotary.
The attendance was about 100. Each
81 the railroad men present was asked
to speak his views. Chairman Klaus
man told of a recent bulletin issued
over General Manager Kruttschpitt's
sign allure, to the effect that none of
the present employees of the company
would at any time be compelled to
take insurance in the new company.
With the exception of two or three
who spoke in favor OF the scheme, snd
PERI apps a half-dozen who didn't speak,
every man present declared himself
against it.
Bya nearly unanimous vote the
sense OF the meeting was declared to
Be decidedly against TIE relief depart
ment as constituted. Each of the labor
org snizations represented at the gath
erlng was requested to name COM
mittseman. Those so named are to
have conference with other railroad
representatives., and report at a meet
ing to be held at the same place next
evening.

WOMEN AS DRUG CLERKS.
Act As Cashiers And Serve Soda
But Do Not Put Up prescrip-
fiOnS

'There is field for girls in the drug
business remarked a Fourteenth
street druggist to Washington Star
reporter, 'aS there is constantly
increasing demand for their services.
l could employ two myself If could
secure them and [ know of several
other druggists who are in the same
position. For some reason which L can
not understand there has been but little
opportunity for girls to learn the drug
business until the past five or six years.
Our experience with them, as far as We
could secure them, has been exceed
ingly satisfactory.
Though the law and medical colleges
opened their doors to young women
soma years ago, the colleges of phar-
macy held out against them, and the
only way by which girl could learn
pharmacy was to get employment q q
drug store as cashier and as soda
water clerk, but somehow they are
never allowed to learn the art Of COM
pounding prescriptions.
"a few of the homeopathic pharms-
cies broke the ice and instructed young
women to compound their medicines,
and with this knowledge of the bust
ness as starter many were installed
in the drug stores. They proved them
selves to be excellent prescription
clerks, and there are many physicians

course, il is not possible for a girl to
learn the drug business unless she
has substantial education and
g taste for it. It repre-
sents great amount of work and many
more hours in day, and every day IN
the week, than almost any other call
ing. a fundamental knowledge of
Latin is necessary, but after one gets
into the inside of the business it will
be found that there is more everyday
English in il than Latin.
As far as compensation is
concerned, though the salary paid TO
learners is small, after a young woman
is competent enough % be registered as
q pharmacist, which under the law is
necessary for all who compound
prescriptions and prepare medicines it
will be found that the salaries paid are
somewhat higher than those paid to
the average store clerk. The only
difficulty in the matter is that it means
long hours every day, and, like
preachers, we have TO work on Sunday"

Stage Drivers Must Give Recein,s

BY order of the Post Office Depart-
ment, all postmasters have been di-
rected TO Immediately call the atten
ton of mail carriers to a decision of
the commissioner of internal revenue
sent to the Department under date of
January 4, 1900. The decision Is as fol-
lows:
Il have the honor to advise YOU that
under the paragraph of Schedule A,
beginning with the words EXPRESS and
Freight. this office has held that mail
carriers who make a practice of car
rying packages from one town to an
other town, for which they receive a
fee. are common carriers within the
meaning Of the law, and must for each
package so carried issue a receipt, to
which receipt must be affixed a one
cent stamp.
Mail carriers. however, who only oc-
casionaIly carry packages as an ac-
commodation and not for hire. would
not be considered as common carriers
within the meaning of the law. and
would not be obliged to issue or stamp
receipts for such packages.
Under these instructions. the post
Office at Augusta notified the various
stage drivers carrying mail from this
city Of this order. This notification ana
the receipt Of this order makes it ne
cessary for the drivers on stage routes
d give a receipt the same as an ex-
press company wherever packages are
carried for compensation. This ruling
will be very sweeping in its effect as
it makes the giving Of stamped re-
ceipts compulsory by stage drivers
whenever they take any kind of
package for delivery, when paid to 40
SO. Inquiry would indicate that none uf
the stage drivers in this vicinity have
ever made a practice of giving receipts
for parcels.
