NOTHING DONG
In Everett Moore Syndicate.

Cleveland, Nov. 12.-The traction af-
fairs of the Everett-Moore syndicate
are likely to remain as at present for
some time. No new developments are
expected either in sales or consolida-
tions until the scheme of refinancing
the Lake Shore Electric has been put
into active operation.
The announcement of the refnanc-
ing plan seems yet to be some distance
away. Outside of the Lake Shore
Electric the syndicate traction inter-
ests are in the best of shape and are
yielding splendid returns.

The officials of the Milwaukee Rail-

statistics OF the creamery business
which has developed along their lines
in the Western states. This company
has systematically promoted the dairy
and creamery business along les lines.
Several years ago, f~oreseeing the de-
veiopment of the dairy interests OF the
West, this road made the experiment
Of putting on q regular refrigerator car

the shipments were light, but for the

interesting to note that there are 1,16S
creameries and dairy establishments
along the lines OF the Milwaukee In
the Western States. or this number.
there are 50 in South Dakota, out OF
1873 In the state. As there are 1851
miles of railway in South Dakota. and
as the Milwaukee road has 1.122 miles,
II will be seen that this road. by its
liberal policy, has secured much more
than its share of the dairy business OF
the state.

was third in succession who failed"
with regard to a question concerning
the geography in and around the Red

should have interest in that part Of

Biblical associations.

DID HE FALL SIX STORIES?
Or Did He Really Fall Only Z Few
Feet?

or DID He Really Fall Only q Few
Feet?
A man fell down an elevator shaft
a distance Of six stories in New York
the other day and wasn't hurt. Con.
nected with his fall was a circum-
stance which calls for some expert
ness in mathematics to figure out.
The man was at an entrance TO an
elevator shaft at the tenth floor look
ing down, when the elevator came
whizzing by from farther up the shaft.
There was a space Of two feet be-
tween the floor on which the man
stood and the elevator, but the man
was leaning over just far enough so
that the elevator touched him as it
passed. U%nnerved, the man lost his
balance and fell, following the de-
scending elevator. The elevator ives
going down almost as fast as the man
was falling, so he did not overtake it
until the fourth floor was reached, or
until he had fallen six stories. Inas-
much as he and the elevator were
travelling at almost the same rate of
speed. the impact was very slight,
and the man was scarcely bruised.
Together man and elevator went to
the ground floor. where the man was
met by his friends who fully expected
to find him dead.
Now, the question arises, how far
did the man really fall? or course
he went the distance Of six stories
before he reached the elevator, but
the elevator was never at the farthest
more than a few feet ahead Of him.
Inasmuch as he fell only till he
reached the elevator, did he really
fall for a greater distance than these
few feet!
Some one who has more time than
we have may figure out this and the
other queries which arise as IA pom
ders on the queer circumstance.
