BUSINESS OF ROUTING f SH0N.

To the average playgoer the the
atricaI business seems one gladstone,
never ending dream of joy-a fitting
hither and thither' eXistence-fancy
free, pocket bullying, fine clothes-but
it is a short cry from the center of
the city to the sanctum, where this
chimera is exploded. Strangely it is a
railroad Office. Prosaic though it may
SEEM the disciples Of Roscisus, who
have as their reason for being the
making OF, laughs and exciting Of tears,
regulate their movements not by per-
Sonal WhiIn, inclination or company
vote, but by the cold, hard time sched-
ule which the railroad company lays
down for them.
AS matter of fact the railroad has
come to exert a paternal influence
over the show business, and in some
cases the systems have gone so far
as to assume practical management of
the companies. In such instances the
man whose name appears in big type
as manager is generally little more
than a clerk, checking UP the doings
of the railroad company in a little red
book which even itself bears the mark
of the railroad system.
In the Northwest the principal per-
son from a, show standpoint is George
d. Rogers, city passenger agent OF the
Northern Pacific railroad. According
to Mr.. Rogers, through whose hands
passes every road production Of any
consequence bound for the coast, the
fine crops and general prosperity in
the Northwest have made the theatre

season.

Rogers. "Florodora,' King Dodo,"

the coast route, and some Of them
carry nearly 100 people. It is easy to
be seen that the expense of handling
such large companies of people is ex-
tremely great, and that a lay over" of
even one day means a loss Of hundreds
of dollars to the proprietors of the
company which faulty dating causes to
be tied up for night or a day between
trains.
'Tt is the purpose of the railroad
companies to obviate this matter of
embarrassment and at the same time
conserve their own interests by keep
ing bureaus in operation which look
after the handling of the troups and
keep in constant touch with the opera
house managers along their lines.
mo matter how insignificant the
show, the same consideration is given
it during its tour that would be ac-
corded a mammoth production, such as
"F1orodora." In fact the handling of
the smaller shows is often vastly more
troublesome than the routing of the
larger ones. With big companies we
know just exactly what houses they
can play, what towns they can stop
in, what connections can be made If
they get off from our line, and we

of baggage and scenery hauling.
Smaller shows, however, which are
not SO very particular about the size of
the stage they use, the height of the
grooves and the distance from the
depot, give us more trouble. In the
first place they don't play the big

large companies, but we find them

connections are equitable. With the
big companies we arrange for special
trains, with sleeperS, chair cars, dining
and baggage coaches, and there Is a
deal of telegraphing and arrangement
necessary in order to keep them prop
erly on the move. In some cases it is
necessary for us to arrange our trains
so as to give the companies five or six
hours leeway for the loading and haul
ing of scenery and trunks. In other
cases, when we are routing small COM

MILITARY MATTERS.

According to the navy Department
the name of the old French town, which
school children have been taught to
spell "MarseilIes," should be spelled
without the final "s." Some years ago
there was a constituted board of geo.
graphical names whose duty it was to
Americanize certain names Of places
and to establish uniformity in the
spelling of geographical names
throughout the world. The board pre-
pared a list of names giving the SPELL
ing 1t regarded as correct. The first
instance where a test arose occurred
recently when the navy department
received a telegram stating that the
Nashville had arrived at Marseilles.
When the notice was sent to the print
ing Office to be inserted on the ship
movement sheet, printed daily for ref
erence, word was sent back from the
printers that the name must be spelled
without the final s. as the board
of geographical names had decided that
it should be eliminated. AS there was
no appeal from the decision the name
will hereafter be spelled without

A bill that has passed the house and
is destined to pass the senate at the
next session will provide regulations
for improving the militia of the states.
The existing provisions have been
found inadequate and the measure is
expected to work many needed reforms.
A movement Is on foot to introduce
into congress at the next session a bill
for the reorganization of the chaplain
corps of the army, which will give the
senior officers who have served for q
period of ten or twelve years the rank
of major The provision will probably
be embraced in the army appropriation
bill of the next session.

HOW DID WALSH GO
BACK TO HIS HOME?
Wakefield Says He Took Him Back in
Box and He HoI-
Tered.

Jim Wakefield, of Long Lake, well
known campaign orator and politician,
yesterday encountered for the first
tir1e in many years an old friend, Jim
Walsh, a veteran of the old First Min
nesota, with which regiment he fought
throughout the war in Capt. Morgan's
company.
Walsh and Wakefield once went
through an extraordinary adventure to-
gether. Walsh said yesterday that he
never experienced anything during the
war that could touch 1t, and Wax efield
insists that this particular escapade is
the one that silvered his auburn locks.
Il suppose" said Wakefield, pointing
to Mr.. Walsh. that there is the only
living man who ever rode thirty miles
in a coffin with the temperature 40 be-
low zero. Walsh did that very thing
and doesn't seem SO much the worse
for wear
"'This is how it happened. I came
to town for supplies and laid in a
stock. At that time Walsh and I were
working In a barrel stave factory at
Long Lake Walsh laid in a stock of
supplies, toe, SO that we had fairish
load on the wagon when we started
home.
.'The roads were none too good In
those days, and out about five miles
there was O bad bridge. 1t had sag
in the middle that let the front wheels
down with a thud. Walsh was nod
ding. half asleep, on the front seat. It
was horribly cold, and was so rnuf-
fed up that I suppose my warning
voice did not reach my companion At
all events when we hit the sag in the
bridge he pitched head foremost out
of the wagon, missed the edge Of the
bridge and landed head down on the
ice In the creek fifteen feet below.
heard his skull split as he struck, or 1t
seemed to me that did.
with all possible haste I rushed
down and dragged Jim to the bank. I
felt his pulse. There was not a f1utter,
and his heart had stopped. He seemed
as dead as Caesar. / reflected that as
the man was dead might as well haul
him to Long Lake as take him back to
Minneapolis. SO I opened one Of two
collins was hauling out for the un-
dertaker at the village and rolled Jim
into it. He was dead weight and it was
about the hardest job of lifting I ever
had. Then drove home
Just as I cached the village Walsh
came to anG sWore at me with much
vigor. He must have been merely
stunned by his fall. The only thing
that ever kept the old man from freez-
Ing to death was the padding in that
CORN and the double thickness Of the
coffin box"
The only amendment Walsh offers to
this curious story is that ne actually
recovered consciousness five miles out
from Long Lake and that Wakefield
was so scared that he deliberately sat
on the roof Of the coffin box and re-
fused to hear Walsh's cries. at the
same time running his team every step

POSTS FOR PHILIPPINES.
War Department Is Preparing to Es-

An order has been issued by the Sec
rotary of war setting aside a large
tract of land containing 1900 acres
within five miles of Manila as a mill
tary reservation. 1t will be the site of
the first of a system of modern brigade
posts which are to be erected through
out the islands. Accommodation will
be afforded for one regiment of in
fantry, two squadrons of cavalry and
two batteries Of artillery. 1t is the
purpose to get the soldiers out of Ma
Mia proper as far as possible. Probably
the garrison at Manila will be ulti-
mately reduced to a regiment of heavy
artillery kept for the purpose of man
ming the sea coast Qualifications there
The war department. has also issued
orders for the construction Of posts at
San Fernando de Union, Salonague and
Laoag. Three or four buildings will be
constructed at each post for barracks
and officers quarters. The posts are
to be garrisoned by American soldiers

PAYMAsTER GENERAL OF THE
ARMY ISSUES DETAILED
STATEMENT
INDICATES THAT EXTRA
EXPENSE WAS s7S,6ss, 40
Every Expenditure Incident to tho
Great Conflict Is Accounted For-Ex-
penses of Army Decreased Over
Nine Thousand Dollars During the
Last Fiscal Year.

A report issued by Paymaster Gem
eral Bates, of the United States army,
shows that the total approximate cost
Of the Spanish war on account Of pay
and extra pay to volunteers and mile
age to officers was $73.688,440 Since
the outbreak of the war there has been
expended through the department Of
the paymaster the sum Of $200, 000, 900,
and the records Of the paymaster give
a satisfactory account of every item of
expense, covering every cent. This
record Is In marked contrast to that Of
the Civil war, when the government
lost nearly 100000.
The annual report of the paymaster
for the last fiscal year indicates that
the army expenditures decreased dur
ing the year $91S,919, as compared to
the preceding year. The reduction of
expenses is due partly to decrease in
the pay Of the army and to reduction
of claims for extra pay of volunteers.
The total expenditures made by the
paymaster general were s52,523,479.
