How 1t Was Observed by a Party of
German Scientists. -
On their way between Telriz and
Teheran the members Of an expedition
sent to Persia by the German govern
ment to observe the transito Of Venus met
a solitary E lropean lady riding in the
opposite direction, a member of the
English colony, who was as clever as
she was beautiful. Having been long
q resident in Persia, she was fearless
iy riding alone a long way ahead Of her
caravan. The Germans marveled at
such IN apparition in such a dreary
waste-wondered she wasn't afraid.
Wouldn't she let some of them stand
by until her servants and baggage
came up? No, she was quite at ease,
and usually in her travels was far
ahead of her attendants, whose mules,
more heavily laden. could not keep her
pace. @- .,. s
"And now, gentlemen" she said,
"who are you, and where are you
bound for?"
They introduced each other. One was
the astronomer, another the photogra-
pher, another the archnologist, the nat
uralist, and SO on, and they were going
to Ispahan to observe the transit Of
Venus. The lady smiled, started her
pony and waved her adieu, saying:
ITO observe the transit Of Venus?
All. well, you a 60 home, now, gen
temen! Your duty is done. Goodby."

Washington, Jan. 17.-At the close

important in the cabinet. He made
references to "navies" in the various
departments and Mr.. Tillman said he

Why He Did Not Discharge a Certain
H.. Railroad Conductor.
Among the first railroads built in the
United States was a little line about
twenty miles in length. In the course
of time a big tunnel line was construct

inal line became merely a branch. For
many years it was run in a cheap way,
with n locomotive, one engineer and
two or three freight cars. .
Finally a new general manager was
appointed. He had been in the Office
but Il week when he sent for the one
lone conductor who had held the posi-
ton ever since the road was built. (.
