 Perhaps one Of the most lavish users or the demoniacal detonators is the Great Eastern Railway, upon whose system on one foggy day a few years ago no feWer
 than 5000 fog signals were used. As the detonators cost farthingB apiece, and fOO men were required to place them in po- sition, 1t can be seen at once that fog has a very deleterious effect upon divi- dends apropos of which Lord Baltimore,
 when presiding at a meeting. of the share holders of the North London Railway re- cently. mentioned that during the pre- vious six months there had been no few CT than eleven fogs. each lasting great CT portion of the day to combat which
 no fewer than 186 guards porters, and others had been enlisted to act as tog- men over the twelve and a half miles De- tween Broad Street and Poplar. He fur ther stated that @,00O fog signals were exploded during the six months. The metropolitan railways altogether spend 12 pounds and los. an hour during every alone; indeed the total loss on account of fogs to the Great Eastern in the course of six months was stated last February by Lord Claud Hamilton to be no less than 10000 pounds. A distinguish ed scientific man once gave the following lucid and very appropriate definition of a fog: "A hygrometrical resultant pro duced under, given barometrical condi- tton. of combined power of evaporation, condensation and hypersaturation" Its chemical composition has been proved to be: Carbon 39; hydrocarbon, 12. and sul- phuric acid, water ammonia, and min eral matter. 49. Tn view of the definition and composition one cannot look upon a fog as anything but a great evil, and a thing to be exterminated. unless one Is a large shareholder in gas "ompani $.
 Early in the fourteenth century Ed ward l. grappled with the fog question. which he saw was chiefly connected with the burning of coal, and little bill was passed making 1t a capital offense to burn it.

DER THE LAND AND SEA. Russian Woman Crossed to Marry
 the Man of Her Chioce
Savannah News.

Savannah News on the frozen steppes of Russia. found its consummation in Savannah yester- day, when Manuel Zimarah and Maria Minardu were made man and wife. They had been lovers in the old country and when the man came to the United States to make his fortune and escape oppres- sion, he left behind him a promised bride.
 That has been years ago, but the bride was faithful to the trust reposed in her by her far-distant sweetheart, and he. too, had kept her name on his lips and her image on his heart. The expected fortune is still in the future, but Zlm- arak had saved a little and his first tn- oortant investment was in a ticket from his old Homc in Russia to Savannah with which he furnished the woman who was to come to him across land and sea.
 She came yesterday morning and there was an affecting meeting between the long-parted lovers. A license was ob- tained from the Ordinary and within a very brief space after the arrival of the bride the marriage ceremony was per- formed.

"Two Little vagrsnts."

Edward C., Whites production of Pierre de Codrcelfe's rtmarkabIy successful scenic drama, Two Little Migrants, |" comes to the Montgomery Theatre Friday night.
 The story of Two Little Vagrants" is famed for its remarkably strong situa- tions and heart interest. In.the first act there are two pictures that are painted in strong dramatic colors to furnish the ground work for the subsequent scenes. The Following two acts are filled mainly with the children, Fan-Fan and Claude. All is so natural, so tender and so brave, that these two acts are an idyl which might easily serve as a play without the preceding or successful acts. A-Aani- formity of dramatic power and skill Is apparent from the first scene to the last, no situation or climax falling into com monplace or insignificance, and each ac- tion without the slightest exaggeration. To sum it all up. it is pre-eminently natural The realistic features of. the play are enhanced by the adplirable scenic effects, which are said to pc made a feature of the production.
 The company which delneates the char acters in the drama is said to be excel lent, including Miss Neva Harrison as Fan-Fan, Katherine Vincent, Arthur cog liser, Del La Barre, James Baum' ..

his departure before the entertainment
was more than half through.
That night burglars broke into the
house of the doctors cousin and among
the property they carried off was the
shirt The burglars were never arrest
ed and in a week or two all the parties
who had been interested in the rainbow
forgot its existence.
Last week the original owner went
up into Wisconsin to spend a few days
fishing. One evening a wild-eyed far
mer rushed into camp and inquired II
there was a doctor on hand. The ply
stefan admitted his identity and was
asked to hurry back to the farmers
house, where a man had been badly
gored by bull.
The victim was lying grooming on a
couch in the diningroom when the doc
tor entered. After his wounds had been
bound up the doctor noticed something
familiar about the shirt which the un-
fortunate man wore. He looked down
at the bosom and there in red embroi-
derry were his own initials. 1t was in
deed, the famous garment which had
had such a strange history.
It's no wonder the bull hooked him,
said the farmer. HE ought to know
better than wear a shirt like that"
AS a matter of common humanity the
doctor secured possession of the i'll
omened shirt and sunk it in the lake,
where it will be powerless to cause any
| further riots or accidents.

ornament has been applied until they
have assumed a graceful form and
have become the words of the architec-
tural language in stonework. But they
had the truth for their prototypes and
they have consequently developed ra-
tionally. The architecture of the iron
building of to-day is indefensible be-
cause it is, first of all. sham, a. mere
pretense, purporting by its detail to be
masonry construction. 1t is ridicu-
lous, TO say the least, to see building
in which the cornices, brackets and
consoles, which are the visible evidence
of the bones of the structure and ap-
parently support the work above them,
are wired or strapped TO the iron skcle-
ton. The galvanized iron cornice and
similar shams are surely no worse.
The solution of any problem is ar
rived at by a series OF compromises,
and any one charged with responsibility
should fully understand what these
compromises involve from an. artistic
and unitarian point OF view; for the
best results cannot follow when one or
the other is ruthlessly sacrificed with
out consideration, but with a proper
appreciation of the value OF the two an
architectural and structural solution
can generally be found which does jus
tice to each and Is also practical.

THE TALE OF A SHIRT.
IL Was a Wonderful Hoodoo Worker
TO Its wenrers.
From the Chicago Tribune.

From the Chicago Tribune.
A prominent physician, who has an
office in a downtown skyscraper.
bought early this spring supply of
gorgeous negligee shirts. One Of the
new. garments, which he had made at
a cost of $3.50 each, was so peculiarly
atrocious that he wore it but once.
When he came down to breakfast one
morning with the awful red and green
plaid adjoining his manly form his wife
at once gave notice that If he went
down town with it on she would sue
for divorce. She also warned him that
a view of the shirt would certainly be
fatal to his more delicate patients.
Feeling chastened by this rebuke, the
doctor took off the nightmare and
went down to work in white linen.
That evening another young doctor
called at the physicians home and the
subject Of the wonderful shirt was
mentioned. Finally the garment itself
was brought down and displayed and
the matter was settled by the accept
ance of an offer of 80 cents for the
shirt made by the younger physician.
The new owner of the shirt put II on
one day and started to walk down
Clark street on his way to one of the
railroad stations. On the way the shirt
caused almost a riot among the ex-
citable denizens of the Levee and the
doctor took IL off that night for the last
time A few days later, by way of a
Joke. he sold the now famous garment

latter put on the shirt and went 10 a
roof garden, where the plaids and
stripes attracted so much more attene
ton than the vaudeville that he took
