TRIES TO END HIS LIFE.

Laurel Citizen Takes Laudanum-Wil
Recover.
George R. McDaniels of Laurel, made
an unsuccessful attempt to end his
life Wednesday night by swallowing
quantity of laudanum. To nerve
himself to commit the rash act, Nc
Daniels imbibed generous supply OF
whisky, which, when the other poison
was taken into his system, acted as a
neutralizer. After working over him
all night the doctors pronounced him
out of danger.
Domestic troubles are said to be the
cause of the mans desperate act.

MOONSHINERS' VACATION.

"for the moonshiner takes his annual

Australian MaiI's Record Trip.

The most important mail that has left
Australia in years for London recently made
a ecord-breaking trip The mail consisted
Of 347 sacks and contained many documents
for the British parliament. At Sidney it
was put on board the steamer Ventura,
steamship sailing under the American flag
and built only last year for the Oceanic
Steamship company at the Cramps ship
yard in Philadelphia. The trip across the
Pacific occupied just 81 days, the former
time having been 20 days. From San Fran,
cisco the mail was hurried east on special
fast trains on the Southern Pacific Ogden
line), Union Pacific, and Chicago, Burling-
ton and Quincy railroads, but arrived in
Chicago too late to connect with the fast
mail train Of the Lake Shore and New York
Central, which is 24-hour train from Chi
cago to New York. Aspecial train was made
up and attached to one of the fastest en-
gines on the Lake Shore line. The regular
train was overtaken at Toledo, and the hour
and half lost time was made up. AT Buff
falo the regular train was made into two
sections by the New York Central with the
mail cars, including the Australian mail, in
the first section. New York was reached
three minutes ahead Of schedule time. At
New York the mail was delivered to the
Campania and that vessel left on regular
time. Barring accidents or unusual delays
it will be delivered in England in several
days shorter time than ever before.

AMERICAN wORKMEN IN INDIA
Natives mt Any Kind of
Work.

The American workmen proved so
efficient, as compared with the ma
tives, that, roughly speaking, should
consider one American equal to ut
least four natives, says a writer in
Worlds Work. Divided into castles
and subdivided into trades, the
natives were able to do but one kind
of work; though in an American
rivet gang, there are but three men,
all capable of doing any part of the
work, the Indian natives are obliged
to have in their gang q hammer man,
snapman-to hold the form on the
rivets-a man to hold under the rivets
the big iron dolly bar, man to heat
the rivets, and one to pump the bel
lows. The bellows men cannot heat
rivets; the rivet heater cannot swing
hammer; the hammer man cannot
hold the dolly bar-and when the
gang are obliged to move they have
to wait for the khallassies, or rig
gers, to rig their stagings. When
the painting began on the viaduct, /
found the painters, too, quite useless
without the khallassies. Good work
ers at their trades they were, how
ever, all of them, the riveters from
Oudh and the Punjaub, used to bridge
work, and the khallassies, sailors
mostly from coasting vessels or Pc
ninsular and oriental steamers.
Usually, on Indian bridge work. the
British engineers put 1000 or 1000
of these natives under one or two Eu-
ropeans, for they are as docile as
sheep, and have the same respect for
European overseers that sheep have
for collie; but we introduced the
innovation of having white men work.
On the traveller, on the material as
it went up, on the topmost points OF
the rising towers to connect the new
pieces as the crane swung them up,
the Americans-and few British and
German sailors I had picked up, with
one North Carolina negro who spoke
Hindustani-worked hard, to the
measurless surprise and admiration
of the coolies, so that as soon as the
construction of the viaduct got well
under way operations went on with
tremendous rapidity. some Of the
200-foot towers, much like New York
skyscrapers, going up in three or
four US. When one thinks of the
slow progress of an Office building,
rising gradually week by week, the
speed of these Steelton workmen
with their train of coolies may be
comprehended.

BIG RAILROAD IMPROVEMENT.

"A unique excursion was recently arranged
~ the Union Pacific Railroad company.
About sixty newspaper men, representing
the leading journals Of the country, were
anvited to take q trip on the Wyoming d.
vision, "The Overland Route" for the pur-
pose OF viewing the stupendous engineering
achievements recently made on that line.
The train was made up of two private
cars, three Pullman palace sleepers, dining
gines, with an observation car-constructed
ON the same plan as trolley car-ahead OF
che engine.
One hundred and ffty-eight and four
tenths miles of new track laid, reducing the
mileage between Omaha and Ogden by 3047
miles, and reducing gradients which varied
from 45.4 to GIGS feet to the mile to maxi
mum of 1913 feet, and curves from 6 to 4 de-
grees, while a great deal of bad curvature
has been eliminated entirely.
A mountain removed and lost into a
chasm; huge holes bored hundreds OF feet
through solid granite, an underground river
encountered and overcome; an army OF men,
with all sorts Of mechanical aids, engaged
in the work for nearly a year; the great
Union Pacific track between Omaha and
Ogden made shorter, heavy grades elimi-
mated, and the business of the great Over
land route flowing through new channel,
Millions OF money have been spent to re-
duce the grades and shorten the distance.
This reduction is the result of straighten-
ing unnecessary curves. and the construc.
ton of several cutoffs between Buford and
Bear river, Utah.
q The curvature saved is about one-half,
Me grading about the same, while the angles
are reduced nearly two:thirds The s,i.
periority OF these changes is apparent to the
USr-a Nfs anV s. ali
parent to the operating department in the
reduction in operating expenses, and to the
traveller in the increased speed the trains
can make.
The new line runs due west from Buford,
avoiding the high hills and eighty-foot grade
from Cheyenne, and piercing through cuts
and the big tunnel, crosses the Black Hills
ut a grade of less than one-half (43.3 feet)
over mountain attitudes.
From n constructive standpoint the line
ID remarkable for the amount OF material
required in the construction of immense
entertainments and the building OF large
tunnels through solid rock. The construc.
tion OF the new line between Buford and
Laramie alone has involved the excavation
of 500, 900 cubic yards of material, one-third
of which Exclusive Of the tunnel excava-
tion) has been solid rock, OF something over
100000 cubic yards per mile.
Too much credit for this work cannot be
given to Horace G. Burt, president of the
Union Pacific railroad and his assistants.
The excursion was replete with many in.
teresting incidents, and the splendid hos.
pitalty Of the Union Pacific officials was a.
revelation. The newspaper men evinced
their appreciation in many ways, particu.
larly in a resolution Of thanks TO the Union
Pacific officials, General Passenger Agent
l.emax. and Messrs. barlow. Park and
Griffin.

As result Of the arrest, on August 10, OF
q ticket brokers' concern at st. Louis,
charged with swindling customer, gigan-
tic railroad ticket counterfeiting scheme
was uncovered. After the arrest of the
brokers their Office was ransacked and an
immense number of tickets and passes found.
1t was almost impossible to place an esti-
mate on the value of the tickets recovered,
but it is stated by railroad authorities that
$50, 900 would be conservative figure. 1t is
believed that many of the tickets and passes
were forged.
At Buffalo number of ticket scalpers
have already been lodged in jail on account
of fraudulent manipulation and forgery OF

numerous the public should take pains to
