The Uniform baggage Room.

The chairman of the Western Passenger
Association has issued a circular relating
TO the uniform baggage room adopted by
the Western lines to become effective Jan.
l. These rules apply to baggage proper,
the limit of weight Of single pieces, free
allowance. authority for checking. transfer
bill, storage, train mail, transportation of
deceased persons, forwarding baggage,
opening baggage en- route, bad order bag
gage and transportation of dogs. Bodies
of dead persons presented in conformity
with the rules of national, state and local
organizations. as commended by the Amer
lean Association of Baggage Agents, will
be transported in baggage cars. A ticket
will be required for the person in charge
and one full hrst-class ticket for the
corpse. No half-fare tickets will be ac-
cepted for the transportation of a corpse.
No piece of baggage, except those of i'm
migrants. weighing over 250 pounds will be
accepted or checked as baggage; $50 pounds
of baggage will be checked free to each
passenger presenting a full ticket, and 70
pounds on each half ticket. Baggage will

CIergymen Are Favored.

ClergynIen in all parts of the United
States, except a limited district east of
Pittsburg and Buffalo. known as the Trunk
Line territory. will be able to obtain half
tare permits after Jan. 1 over all roads east
of the Mississippi as well as west of that
river. The action taken to tina end is the
most important ever recorded. affecting a
large class of religious and charitable
workers. AS heretofore. the roads east of
Chicago and the Mississippi river that are
members of the Central Passenger Asso-
citation have refused to issue half fare
clergy permits 10 those residing outside the
bounds of the organization. Those who are
barred from the concession by reason of
their residence were given trip permits good
Cnly for one journey. These trip permits
Will be abolished after Jan. 1, but. to offset
this. annual credentials will be given to any
minister or other person coming within the
rules governing the issuance of transpor-
tation. The change will throw open con-
c~eSsiOns to clergymen in all parts of the
United States except the territory traversed
by the trunk lines east of Pittsburg and
Buffalo. The latter roads have not for sew
eral years issued journey permits to cler-
gymen residing in or out of their district.
1t is noticeable that for the present the
trip permit east of Chicago or in Contra!
Traffic Association lines territory a fee of
twenty-five cents is charged the applicant;
tor the new annual credentials a charge of
81 will be made, but this will be good for
twelve months instead of for one trip, as
now. The 81 fee is necessary to maintain
the bureau that issues permits. 1t is es-
timated that the new rules will result in the
issuance of 5000 or possibly 10000 more an
Lual permits. Ministers, ii is stated, form
the smallest percentage of applicants for
the half rate concession. A majority of
the requests come from Sisters of Charity,
!: embers of the Salvation Army and others
in similar work.

SERVICE.
Rev. RObb Earring Speaks of n Corn
and Pork Thanksgiving

The Thanksgiving service of Irvington
was held at the Downey-avenue Christian
Church yesterday morning, the Rev. Robb
Earring, of the Methodist Church, deliver
ing the address. He said:
I'm the few minutes that 1 shall be
privileged to talk to you, L trust that
| shall not do violence to the spirit of
the hour ~haranguing you upon the sub
ject of national peril. I think that if there
is a place and time when the dust should
not be raised, it is in this church at this
hour with the spirit of thankfulness and
praise enveloping us. L do not think that
and apply nostrums for the Nations cure.
These perilous tendencies must be con-
frOnted squarly by every dutiful citizen;
there is no getting around that. But it
does seem TO me that we should have
the privilege, one day out of the many,
TO forget about such painful things; to
get out upon the sunny side of the hill
the goodness of God. Tomorrow we may
shake ourselves and proceed with the
diagnosis with scalpel and prod.
Again, let us not put our thanksgiving
than one sermon at such a time wherein
the speaker employed nearly his whole
time with statistics. After giving us
the number of bushels of corn and Wheat
in. the Nations granaries, giving us the
condition of the beef and pork supply and
in other ways informing us that conditions
were very faVorable-after all thiS-he ex-
claims in the language of David: Praise
we the Lord Then the sermon closes
the discourse is done.
But still he has missed 1t. If one can
find no greater Items for Thanksgiving
than corn and pork, he is short-sighted
he is hard of hearing; his sensibilities are
woefully impaired and the great field of
blessings lies before him undiscovered. Let
him revel in his corn and pork; they are
good enough for him.

TRANSPORT WRECKED.
United States Steamer Wright Sunk by
Striking an Uncharted Rock.

MANILA, Nov. 2S.-The United States
transport Wright has been wrecked in the
Straits Of Daram. She will probably turn
out to be a total loss. The Wright struck
on an uncharted rock at the entrance of
San Jacinto and sank in fifteen feet OF
water. To raise her will require wrecking
machinery, which is not available here.
NEW YORK, Nov. 2S.-The United States
transport Wright. formerly the Aid, was
originally a fruiter and was presented to
the government by some patriotic women
of Boston. when the Spanish war broke
out, TO be used as a hospital ship. Later
she was fitted out as a dispatch boat and
was sent TO Cuba to be used by General
Woods. More recently she was sent to the
Philippine islands as a dispatch boat and
storeship. She had a refrigerating plant
and a refrigerated storeroom, which made
her of great value in the islands. The
Wright was first called the Bay State. This
was before she was transformed into a
hospital ship.
WASHINGTON, Nov. ga brief dis
patch came to the War Department to-day
from General Chafee confirming the press
epOrt Of the wreck OF the TRANSPORT
Wright. General Chaffee's dispatch was
very brief, saying simply that the vessel
had struck on an ~uncharted rock and that
the question of the rescue of the vessel
was prOblematical.

That the large number Of people carried
TO the Pan-American Exposition at Buff
falO were handled without accident on the
part Of railways is a matter Of much COM
ment. 1t is estimated that local and
through lines carried to the Exposition fully
5000 people. and so far as reported not a
person was killed or seriously injured that
IN any way the railways were responsible
for. When the worlds fair was held at
Chicago there were three accidents, and
in each case a number of people were
killed. IN speaking Of this. a general pas
senger agent said that this only illustrated
the improvements that had been made to
roadbed and equipment and the better
methods of moving fast and numerous
trains that have been adopted since 1898.
And it was in no part due to the passen-
gers carried, as, with each year, said the
official. people who travel on passenger
trains are more careles about boarding and
leaving trains. especially when there is a
crowd. This statement would be found cor
rect by observation on Sundays during the
past summer at the Union Station. where
there were constant examples of the reck-
lessness of excursionists. and but for the
vigilance on the part of the Union Sta
ton officials many persons would have
been killed or injured. The exemption ia
the case OF the travel is
the most commented on from the fact that
so many trains were handled that they
were run SO near on schedule time, and
furnished 50 ample accommodations. Every
road centerinS at Buffalo. including imme-
oiate connections, had prepared, weeks and
I OntES in advance, to properly care for
the business. and the results from their
efforts in that direction were so satisfac-
tory that passengers and transportation Of
ficials hereafter will be less anxious as
TO the handling of immense travel with
cue accident. One accident such as oc-
Cured on the roads leading to Chicago at
the time of the worlds fair more thar

shopping for Christmas.

The time has come when every shop
Sets forth in smart array
All kinds OF wares that makes US stop
And loiter on our way.
Ard as we gaze we think we ought
To buy our presents now,
And not 10 wait until were ugh
When tiu.e will not allow.
All other wears we've waited till
The latest minute. and
Our slender purses then we'd MI,
And rush TO beat the band
We never found what We desired;
We took what we could get,
And wended home all cross and tired;
But not this year, you bet.
No surging. pushing. striving throng
Wen have 70 struggle Ia,
But lefsurely wen stroll along.
The while we spend our tin.
Vel take our time and make our choice,
Select judiciOusly,
And those who get them will rejoice.
When they their presents see.
But. after all. there's no great rush.
There's vet a month OF more.
Before there's any awful crush
Oh. yes, there's time galore.
To-day is-what? Well. never mind,
IL doesn't matter. I'm
For shopping not just now inclined
And then. there's lots OF time.
