A Shockinq Ride.

Whether any of the people who now
ride on the elevated rains will bo
in New York when the world comes
Ia IN end is question, but if any of
them happen to be doing business in
this neishborhood they will be able
10 stand the shock better than others
who have never travelled on the L."
The sensation will be nothing new TO
them. because they get a foretaste OF
the final shakeup every time the
train stops.
There are other movements and
other cessations of movement that
produce strange. indescribable thrills
in the human frame. but none sends
the same SILVER from head 10 toe as
the spaslon.!c Jerking of the elevated
train when slowing up or getting un-
der way. 1t may be the new electric
system. but, whatever the cause. the
passengers. specially those that happen
to be standing when tho train stops
and starts again. feel as if the bot
tom was dropping out Of everything
and they are sinking down. down
down into fathomless abyss. OF
course. that may not be at all tho
way people will feel on the last day.
but all elevated train sufferers are
willing to take oath that they cannot
feel any worse.-New York Press.
