him is one that could arise only in such
completely democratic body He is a
necessity and not luxury. While the

the case that he has the ear of only the
expert penman who stands almost under

the noise of the side conversations is
usually sufficient to drown out the speaker
until he is audible only within q circle of
perhaps a dozen feet. If he walks down
the aisle toward the Chair he is followed
by his stenographing shadow Altogether
the spectacle is one likely to prove sur
prising to anyone used to the sedate and
quiet methods of the English or French

A Lon. Train.

The longest train ever hauled on
the Northern Pacific left Jamestown
for Fargo to-day in charge of Engineer
Dalzell and Conductor Delmore, says
the Alert. The train consisted Of 125
box cars, five of which were loaded.
It was 5000 feet long-25O feet less
than q mile. The train was hauled
by one of the new compound locomo-
tives recently purchased by the conf
pany. Recently the Great Northern
hauled train of 10 cars and the Bur-
lington one of 120; but the Northern
Pacific enjoys the distinction Of haul
ing one of the longest-if not the long
est--trains on record.
