HUGE OUTLAY FOR TIES.
Annual Railroad Expenditures, Which
Public Hardly Notices.

Railway Age.
The railroads of the country are using
ties to replace those worn out by use at
the rate of 110,000,000 a year. This esu-
mate, which may be taken fairly au-
thoritative, suggests some interesting con-
illusions. 1t does not, of course. include
ing average rate per tie COO cents) the cost
aggregates S55,000,0O0 annually.
To secure ties even at the present n'erket
price, railroads often transport such SUP
plies 200 miles. 1t appears, therefore, p'dl
the of the class of timber now being
purchased cannot long continue AS con-
sequence, the government has taken up the
question OF experimenting upon available
wood by treating each specimen with pre-
servatives in order TO add years 10 the aV-
erage period of usefulness. The railroads IN
France have been so successful in this d.
rection that beech ties are made TO last
thirty-five years. Many of those in use liz,
this country, even of supposed standard
qualities, must be relaid in from between
three to five years. The American Teie-
graph and Telephone Company used 10000
telephone poles and 3.OOO0OO feet or TIMBER
in cross-arms last year, therefore it can be'
readily understood that the subject OF
seasoning and preserving wood Is not con-
fined to railroad companies alone.
The matter was brought to the attention
of a railroad officer familiar with the sub
ject this week and I'm going over the cross
tie problem he said:
Experiments now being made will doubt
less end in the use OF cheaper timber. as
the cost of treating several grades of pine,
for instance, is comparatively small. The
best results obtained so far from natural
timber has been from oak, but present
prices prohibit the use of such wood for
ties. Cedar brings a good result, IL tie
plates are used. These are necessary, how
ever, as the wood is soft. Those people
who ask and keep on asking for larger
dividend rate have no idea what 1t costs
to run a railroad. At the average rate per
tie the cost of replacing such material an
nually is S55, 100000. Mention ties 70 an or
binary investor and he will say, What do
ties amount to?' Ahead of ties as an actual
operating expense comes labor, COAL iron,
lumber and rails. Our troubles are many"

MRS. LEASE, THE RABBLE ROUsER,

Kansas City Journal.


'rhe ability of Mary Ellen Lease as a
rabble rouser was under a reminiscent dis
cussion by the politicians OF Copeland coun-
ty the other evening. All agreed that she
could do more damage TO the opposition
than any other dozen Pop spellbinders COM
bined.
II have always had high regard for
Mrs. Lease ever since the 1896 campaign"
said James NJ. Simpson, who, as chairman
of the State committee, managed the Re-
publican campaign in Kansas that year.
THE old lady was a man of her word
When she agreed to do thing she did it.
That year the coal miners of the southern
part of the State were causing the Repub-
lican managers much uneasinesS. They were
all off the reservation. We were trying to
get some of them back and things were get
ting in fairly good shape when the Pop
committee billed Mrs. Lease for a speech
at Pittsburg When We saw that an
nouncement our hopes OF getting even a
portion OF the miners vote dropped to way
below zero. We knew that If Mrs. Lease
made that speech the jig would be up.
Talking 10 miners was her long suit. She
could fairly set them afre by drawing a
picture contrasting the miner and his half
starved and naked family with the coal
baron who reveled in luxury in his palace
and consumed nothing but champagne and
terrapin--and the miners souls.
"A council OF war was held at Repub-
lican headquarters. Something had 20 be
done to prevent Mrs. Lease from making
that speech at Pittsburg. All sorts of STRAIT
egg moves were discussed. 1T was finally
decided that L should beard the llonesS III
her den. | made an appointment with her.
The conference was successful
What excuse can 1 give?" she asked.
Cant your throat get sore?' | asked.
Indeed il can" said she. Don't you
notice me getting hoarse already?'
II confessed that l could. Mrs. Lease
went to Pittsburg on the date fixed for her
to speak. The miners all quit work TO at
tend her meeting. Her thoat got worse
rapidly. An hour before the meeting she
could scarcely whisper. She went to Pop
doctor there and he pronounced il serious
case He was afraid SHE would lose her
voice entirely and forbade her even at
tempting to address the meeting. The local

COUNTRY PUZZLES THE TOTS.
New York ssFresh ARR Children Brin q
Menageries Back with Them.
New York Tribune.

New York Tribune.
A walking menagerie, museum and vege-
table market combined is the appearance of
a fresh air party as it leaves the train on
its home journey. Each little visitor is
loaded down with precious souvenirs ami
mate and inanimate, of the country which
the company has just left
A large number of bags containing apples
pears, peaches, plums, tomatoes and other
garden stuff is in evidence. One boy is lead
ing disreputable looking dog. another car
rying a wabbly-legged puppy. Several Of
the girls have cats OF various ages, some in
arms and others vigorously squrmng in
bags or baskets. Doves, pigeons, ducks and
live stock is deposited in the tenement
houses is problem to the beholder. In
many homes the backs of chairs are utilized
of the children from country trip. Besides
these staple articles are plants, rocks
canes, baskets and other rustic curios.
One youngster had bad luck with his
pet but was loath to part with it. He had
started out with a young chicken in little
box. 1t seemed fitting to remove the pet so
many times in the course of the journey,
to see if it was all right. that the bird finally
died of overattention. On reaching home
the boy sorrowfully removed from his pock-
ct an old handkerchief, in which he had
wrapped the body. Whether or not funeral
services were held is not recorded
Country terms are little vague in the
minds of the small city visitors. One child
who had been once before a visitor was
being questioned about his stay there. When
the pigs were mentioned he exclaimed: "Oh,
yes / know the pigs! They's the ones that
lays the nice little eggs" This same child
declared that he had lots Of fun riding on
the cows tails. Another, little girl. who
had a mania for picking flowers, pulled an
entire row of onions from the garden of her
hostess and brought them to that aston
ished woman, asking her to smell the pref
~ flowers a little girl, In dilating on the
eat on the way home, named as one of the
choicest articles a "hen sandwich" This
was a new one TO the missionary, and she
asked about il. "A hen sandwich" said
the child, in great surprise at such igno-
rance lis two slices OF bread, with a piece
of hen between them"
