the like. OF course little things like
these don't amount to much within
themselves, but children will see that
done and hear older ones tell Of 1t, and
after awhile some little fellow puts on
larger thing, and a wreck Is the re-
suits. The idiots who have been in the
habit Of putting small articles on the
rail could not be made to believe that
they were the primary cause of the
wreck, oh, no; but they are, just the
same.
II ran across a fool just the other
day that seemed to be something new.
At least it was the first time anything
like 1t was ever played on me. 1t was
at blind siding, where our fast train
did pot stop, and he wanted US to stop
so he could get on. AS we pulled In
sight Of the switch there was a man
with his foot apparently caught In the
frog. This IS a horrible affair, and Of
course I slowed down and stopped just
in time to save the poor fellow, only to
have him laugh an idiotic laugh and
make a run for the coaches. My fire
man was big husky fellow, and sent
him after the idiot. held the train
just 20 seconds, and you never saw so
much blood come from one mans nose
in your life. The husky fireman pound
ed him, would throw him up and kick
him as he came down, showed his head
in the earth, twisted his legs and bent
his neck sidewise, and finally wound
up by dumping him out next to the
fence. He will not stop another train
in that way.
There is a farmhouse near the track
about 200 miles out. One day we were
late, and I was making about a. mile
minute down the long hill there,
when little tot about years old stood
up in the centre Of the track and start
ed to run away from US. I was right
on it before saw it. The fireman saw
the child at the same time. Nothing
on earth could save the darling, and I
knew it, but I seized the whistle and
blew 1t like a crazy man, at the same
moment reversing and [opening the
throttle wide. To my amazement, a
calf, frightened by the whistle, jumped
into the middle Of the track, and look
ing back at us as they will always do
for few, ran square into the tot and
knocked it clear of the rails, as the calf
itself went under the engine. Come
now, Jim, you nave hugged it long
enough; get on and let's be going, was
the first words I understood after 1
saw the little fellow between the rails.
I gave the child to its mother VINO had
come screaming from the house near
the track."-Portland Oregonian.

NEVER ANOTHER SKATE.-Senator Ba-
con. of Georgia, is clean shaven and
bald-headed. Once, when a young
man, he wore long, flowing side whis-
kers. When the roller skating craze of
Is or 20 years ago struck Georgia, Bacon
was the crack skater of his town. One
night he was out on the floor of the
rink making fancy figures, when two
amateurs. hand in hand, bore down on
him. He tried to get out Of the way,
but couldn't.
The two skaters bumped into the en-
bryo senator. One caught hoid of his
whiskers on one side and the other took
a grip on the other side. Yelling with
pain, Bacon tried to shake them off, but
they clung until all three went to the
floor together.
Bacon got up, took off his skates,
went home and shaved. Since that time
he hasn't worn either skate or a

Chairman Warner Opposes the Propos-

B. II. Warner, chairman of the citizens
executive committee on the G. A r. en-
campment, writes from Atlantic City OPP
posing the proposition for a testimonial in
his behalf. Mr.. Warner says that while he
appreciates the suggestion yet he hopes no
public movement will be started to procure
a testimonial for him, as the credit for the
success of the encampment belongs to
others as we'll as himself.
The citizens executive committee OF the
G. A. r. encampment has moved its head
quarters from the building on New York
avenue to the rooms of the Business Mems
Association in the Bond building, where
the business in connection with settling up
the affairs of the encampment will be con-
tinued until the final adjustment.
Several letters have been received from
members of the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie who attended the encampment express
ing themselves as being greatly pleased
with the encampment and the arrangements
made for the pleasure of the veterans while
here. The commander of the Department
of New Hampshire wrote that large dele
cation had visited Washington from that
state, and they had all expressed their de-
light at the entire success Of the big re-
union. A letter from a member of the
Loyal Legion from New York city stated
that the success of the encampment was

people will give performance at the New
National Theater. This will be the only
appearance of the company in the city and
a double bill has been selected. The per-

what we have heretofore been accustomed
to. The Mascagni organizati ton includes an
orchestra of sixty and a chorus of sixty
The principal singers are all artists of the
very highest rank and the performances

to be as near perfection as possible

SANITARY INSPECTORS
The Health Officer Asks for Money TO,
Their Travelling Expenses.

AASAA AAoSC11llS GApCuScS.
DIR. Woodward, the health officer, has
recommended to the Commissioners that
the item in the health department estimates
for the necessary travelling expenses of
sanitary and food inspectors while travel
Ing outside of the District of Columbia
etc, be increased from $1,000 to 81 500 The
better organization of the dairy inspection
service since the submission of the esti-
mates referred to, it is said. has demon
strated the impossibiity of maintaining it
economically On proper basis without
making allotments to certain of the inspec-
tors to cover the cost of maintaining horses
and vehicles, and in order to make such al
lotments it will be necessary to increase
the appropriate ton suggested.
Il have the honor to recommend further -
says DR.. Woodward, that an item be in
Guided in the estimates of the health de-
"artment providing for the employment of
additional clerk at salary of $500 per
annum. Certain of the clerical work of
the department for the past year; which
has come under my personal observation in
connection with the preparation Of the an
nual report of the department, has been
found to be extremely unsatisfactory from
the standpoint Of both completeness and &C
curacy, and the reason for such defects Is
believed to be chiefly the inability of the
clerk having charge of such work to per.
form 1t properly because of various inter
ruptions and delays incident to other d,,-
ties. The services of an additional clerk
are, in my judgment, necessary If the cler-
ical work Of the department Is to be prop
erly performed"
