Trivial to Them; a Felony in Law.

The Harrisburg Patriot of the 9Th in
stant has a statement of how four
boys rendered themselves subject 10 a
heavy penalty by mischievously re-
moving the oily waste from car jour
nal boxes TO start bonnres
Numerous complaints had been made
by employees OF both the Pennsylvania
and Reading roads that the boxes OF
the rolling stock was from time to
time stripped OF waste containing lub-
ricating oil. and the detectives by
quiet investigation soon located the Of
tenders who were arrested and taken
before Magistrate John L. Bates. who
held them for a further hearing
The boys took their arrest very quiet
ly. for. as one Of them said, Il don't
care II my mother does know / got
pinched. If ! had been run in for
stealing coal il would be different. but
what does Il matter II / did pull lit
tie waste out of a journal box but
when arraigned before a magistrate
thye discovered that they had broken
State law which classes the offense
as a felony punishable by a fine Of
$500 and five years imprisonment at
hard labor.
The reason that the State law at
taches so severe a penalty TO The theft
OF waste from journal boxes Is not be-
cause Of the intrinsic value Of the ma
terial. but because its removal may re-
suit in very serious wrecks to trains.
When the waste is taken away there is
nothing left 20 hold the lubricating oil
upon the axle, and consequently
nothing 10 prevent friction
The brass bearings in the journal
boxes are thus quite frequently melted
when the cars are in motion. The
heat of the molten metal tempers the
iron axles and frequently causes them
to snap. The results quite frequently
have been very serious wrecks. Axles
have been known to snap i'm this way
after a car had travelled as short a
distance as FIVE miles after the waste
was removed from the boxes.

greatly TO the beauty of any gown. Tho
hghg veiiings and oo7hs wibh the pleated
waists Of crepe de chine, n the gown
be Of cloth, with the bolero jacket are
most attractive and any amount OF en-
broidery OF silk, satin. velvet or chiffon
can be used TO advantage.
Boloros Of lace or embroidery or silk
Crepe de chine on batiste gowns are in
great demand. and an the summer FASH
ions show this style. Some boleros are
sleeveless. others have the elbow sleeve,
others-and these the most universally
'popular-have long shoulder line that Is

The Songs That Reach the Heart.

The Songs That Reach the Heart.
At time when the fashionable opera
was in highest vogue Jenny Lind came
to America and achieved her greatest
triumph by singing such simple airs as
Comm Through the Rye" They
touched a popular chord. and it vibrat-
ed throughout continents. 1t is the
touch of nature that makes the whole
world kin. And just as the simple
songs of Burns gave pleasure without
initiating against the culture Of
taste for the higher creations in vocal
music. so the enjoyment of the simple
melodies which we know as ragtime
are harmless and without danger Of
taking the place of the more elevated
style of music. We cannot play trag-
edy all the time, but must have the
melodrama and the farce as the lighter
features Of the stage. And so in mu-
sic. literature and art the philosophy
applies with the same force.-Louisyille
