DELAWARE AND HUDSON REPORT.

The income account of the Delaware and Hudson
company for 1902 printed In The Tribune sew
eraI weeks ago. In the pamphlet report received
Yesterday the president of tho company r. NJ
OIvnhant saws that at the beginning Of the cur
rent year the company hoped that the coal indus-
trv would share in the general prosperity OF the
country but the strike which took place In May
brought the mining practically to standsuiI' aho
II was not wholly resumed until the latter part OF
October The testimony regarding the strike Sc
cured by the investigating commission seems, ne
says. to be entirely in favor Of the operators ana
the figures compiled for the commission by the
company's controller and accepted by the repre-
sentatives of the miners show considerably In ex-
of the amount fixed by such representatives
as constituting a reasonable annual wage. The
total production OF coal Of the company amounted
to 81 9OOs9O tons. and tho anthracite coal trans
ported over the company's line amounted TO 4S4O1'2
tons He points out that. notwithstanding the de-
crease in earnings. tho expenses for maintenance
of way and structures and for maintenance OF
equipments have been fully up to standard require
ments. Equipment to tho amount of H-108.lh was
purchased and will eventually be paid for out OF
operating Expenses In the year s1JOOOO car trust

ures of the Hudson Coal Company were retired

Coal Company. guaranteed by the DcIaWar" anu
Hudson company were issued for the purchase OF
additional coal property. From 1913 to 1905 fixed
amount of these will he paid of each year The
company has decided that II will be a decidedly
economical step for it to carry its own insurance
so a fund for that purpose has been completed
which at present has credit of $l00.2J1. The Adj

TOTAL ECLIPSE
The Moon Will Go Into the
Shadow Tonight.
The Phenomenon will Only Be Parti-
ally Visible, However

The moon will be N almost total
eclipse this evening, but the conditions
are such that only small portion OF
the eclipse will be visible here, and,
indeed. there is good reason for doubf
that IL will be seen here at ALL The
eclipse will begin before the moon
rises above the horizon, and after 10
does rise there will still be sufficient
daylight to take away the effect OF the
shadow on the face of the moon.
The eclipse will be practically total,
ninety seven and three-tenths of the
surface being immersed in the shad-
ow. By the time the moon has rise n
above the horizon and becomes visible
it will be well out Of the shadow, and
were not the fact announced In adj
vance few would ever guess that an
eclipse was in progress. The sun
does not act until exactly four minutes
after the appearance Of the moon. and
before the lunar body is well up In the
heavens so that IL may be seen the
shadow will have passed completely
over its face.
An interesting point in connection
with the eclipse is that the moon Is
the Psschal moon, that is, the one thst
determines Easter day. Easter is one
Of the movable feasts Of the church
and comes on the first Sunday after
the first full moon after March 81.
Tonight the first full moon after the
Of spring will rise and to-
morrow being the first Sunday after
becomes Easter day.

chirp.
Around and around the supper table ne
delightedly circled, aIighting first on one
head and shoulder and then on another,
until he finally rested right in the palm
Of Bobby Kittredge's hand, which. after
moment, he left to fly upon the breast
OF Mynny Kittredge. And then from palm
TO palm, and head to head he flew and
ate bits of cold trout with great relish,
as if he had for a long time tasted. He
would not eat anything btt fish,, either.
The robins and thrushes of the NeWtons,
as well as the linnets and pigeons. would
eat crumbs. but not a thing would this
little chap nibble but trout.
Bobby and Mynny had fine time with
him after dinner, and when they went 10
bed they told him to be sure and be
around in the morning and go to the
kindergarten with them! Then Mrs. Kitt-
redge said "Ridiculous!" and smilfngly

Bright and early the next morning
Bobby and Mynny Kittredge were out
upon the lawn, looking for the little visl-
tor OF the night before; but he was gone,
and they went thoughtfully TO breakfast,
hoping against hope for the strange
birds return-but he did not come back.
When Lieutenant Kittredge arrived
Mynny told him all about the visit OF
the bird. Then he described the bird to
them until their eyes opened in wide
wonder, wondering how he could possibly
know, and when he told them little
things about the bird that they had for
gotten their wonder grew into Fourth OF.

the bird came, and the dream was SO ex-l
actly like the story OF the birds visit
that they were speechless with SUPPRESS

How the Steadfast Won. an Exciting Race.
BY JOHN W. HARRINGTON.

the Knickerbockers made the air ring
with their shouts. The general, wk5
had fought in three wars, leaped up and
down and waved his cane. and once took
off his broad brimmed hat and tossed
it high in the air
Go it, cried he, "and may the best
yacht win, meaning that the Anemone
will show as clean a pair of heels as
ever churned the blue"
Owing TO the overhanging wall and to
the fact that the great gilded dome be-
yond cut off the wind the race was
sailed in pUffs and sudden squalls. With
all sail set, the rival yachts crossed the
line to the loud roar Of the brass can
non on the shore fired by the commo-
dore of the Knickerbockers The white-
fronted buildings far beyond echoed with
the report, more spectators were attract
ed to the spot and the presence of so
many persons interfered at times with
the joclleying of the two military ad
visers. The steering gear OF the craft,
which had been bound fast, made the
race all the harder. and the general and
the colonel were obliged 10 lean far out
at times in order to keep the vessels
on their courses. Once a gust of wind
caused the masts and cordage OF the
craft to creak and the topSatl OF the
Steadfast was nearly carried away.
The course was from the angle in the
wooden platform TO the whistling buoy
standing on the short Of the lake. Both
vessels had glided away from the guild
ance of the walking sicks of the general
and the colonel and upon luck and the
favoring breeZes depended the finish OF
the contest.
