question as to whether Funston.

country regard him as more

UNCLE SANS RAILROAD.
A Six-niIe Line That Is Used O Trans-
port Ordnance Up and Down !.
Sandy Hook.

The United States is operating a
railroad of its own, and does not
make cent out of it from one
years end to the other. Only a few
miles from New York, the Sandy
Hook peninsula, is a six-mile steam
railroad with Fort Hancock as one
terminal and Highland Beach the.
other. This road, says the Express
Gazette, while limited in its rolling
stock to one locomotive, one combin-
alton baggage and passenger car and
several freight cars, is in touch with
the whole country, it connects at
Highland Beach with the Central
Railroad of New Jersey.
Large operations in the line Of
ordnance tests are secretly conduct
ed at the Sandy Hook proving.
grounds by the ordnance department.
at Sandy Hook, and it is the trans
portation of this ordnance, together
with ammunition and supplies, that
furnishes the bulk of business of this
railroad. The passenger traffic is
small, as it is limited to those hav-
ing passes issued by the military au-
thorities of the United States. Aside
from the inscription sSandy Hook
Proving Grounds which appears on
the cars and locomotive, there is
nothing about the train to suggest
the ownership of the road. Never
the1ess, it is Uncle Sans rail-
road, with an artillery sergeant as
conductor, and traffic man ger, Col.
j. B. Burbank, who is at present in
command at Fort Hancock.

He Was Smooth.

A few months since one of the principal
business houses in kihgman had trick
played upon them by a fellow wishing to
obtain credit. The man was entire
stranger to the firm and this doubt
worked to his advantage. His plan was
as follows, and it worked, too:
He went into the store and called for
his account saying he wished to pay it,
giving his name of course. A thorough
search failed to disclose any record of
any account against him. He insisted
there must be somewhere, a charge
against him as he said he had purchased
goods to the amount of $1.75 and enumer-
ated the articles purchased. Further
search disclosed nothing. Mr.. Stranger
said he owed the amount and wanted to
pay it as it was against his principles to
beat a store account even if the store
keeper had failed to charge it, and paid
it. He went at length and told how
he was Just newcomer in the county !;
telling in which township he lived, ETC.,
etc., and that he expected to maintain
his good name while living here. This
all very well and good and worked
the storekeeper-as the sequel will show.
In the evening the same fellow called
at the store and played his winning card.
He bought new suit of clothes, shoes.
hat and various other articles to the
amount of $25, and had them charged
and Iokingly remarked to the clerk that
he had better make a memorandum of
the articles, for if he didn't he might lose
the account. The account is yet unpaid
and strict inquiry has failed TO locate the
man in the township he claimed to live
in IN any of the adjoining townships.
1t turns ont that the S1-75 paid, on the
pretended account was good for S25

happened over year ago, and the fellow

Cattle VIII Be in Demand.

During the drouth of last summer Mis-
sourians disposed of the most of their
cattle, and in the spring they will want
to buy again. As an evidence of this we
take the following from the Hutchinson

One of the local stockmen who has
made trip through Missouri says there
will be big demand from that state for
cattle in the spring and in fact, from
now on There are practically no cattle
in some of the counties in Missouri and
the people there are preparing to stock
their farms again. Two three stock
men from Missouri were in Hutchinson
