TWO MILES A MINUTE.
That Speed Will be Possible on the
New Monorail System.

NEW mouoFaH oystoU'
Baltimore, Nov. 1.-The announce
ment is soberly made that by the
middle of next month cars will be- run
ming at the rate OF from 100 to 120
miles an hour over part of the mono
rail line under construction between
Baltimore and Washington. This sy-
stem, an American invention, Is re-
garded as a great improvement over
any of the European single-rail roads,
and great expectations are entertained
of its possibilities.
The distance between the two cities
is forty miles, and the journey Is now
made on the steam cars In one hour
The electric cars Of the monorail line
are to make the run in eighteen minu-
tes They are cigar-shaped and
about fifty feet long, presenting as
little resistance as possible to the air.
The trolleys are Of peculiar sort.
and the motors are under the cars.
AS soon as the new line is in sue
cessful operation, other monorail
roads are to be built notably one be-

CASE OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY

Hackensack, n. ], Nov. 9.--Just as
Mrs. John Wygant, Of this city, had
donned a mourning gown and widows
veil yesterday she was called to the
telephone,
Hello! is this you. Margaret? :?
she heard, This is John. You
can't bury me to-day, I'm not dead
yet by a long sight
AS soon as Mrs. Wygant recovered
she sent word to the sexton of the
First Reformed church that the
brand new grave he had just finished
could be filled up again, for 1t would
not be needed.
Last Tuesday man was killed In
the Lackawanna tunnel. and was iden-
titled as Wygant by his parents and
wife. Thereupon they made all ar
rangements for his funeral. Notices
or his death were sent 10 the local
papers, and the rector OF the church
was waiting for the arrival of the body
when wygant telephoned that he alb
solutely refused to be buried.
Wygant was found yesterday byI
some friends in Hoboken who had
heard OF his supposed death. When
he learned that he was a dead one
laughed long, and ordered
drinks. Then they told him that he
was to be buried in about half an
hour. He rushed to the telephone at
once and postponed the funeral In
definitely.
The man who was really dead Is
said to be perfect double of Wygant.

. Successful Buyer.

A Successful Buyer
The American Silk Journal for Deeem-
Der contains an extended notice OF the
Shepard, Norwell company's store in Bos-
ton and says
'sThe success attained may be well said
to be due TO the acumen OF A. A. Thresher,
a sketch OF whose career we give forth
with. Mr.. Thresher is of the younger gem
Grafton OF buyers, having been born in
Braintree, VT, - years ago, attending the
district school in his native town and the
high school OF Randolph, VT, until the
age OF seventeen. He embarked on his
commercial career with the house Of Jor-
dan Marsh company OF Boston, and by
painstaking effort rose to the assistant
buyership OF their silk department.
"Severing his connection with this
house, he was offered and accepted the
position OF buyer OF silks and velyets with
the h. II. White company, and after two
years successful management OF this de-
partment he engaged with John Wanna
maker as silk and velvet buyer OF that
merchants New York store. This posi-
tion he filed more than aeceptaby for
two years, when he became associated
with the house Of the Shepard, Norwell
company as their silk and velvet buyer,
with which establishment he has now
been for four years, each of which has
seen increased sales, that is, perhaps, the
only sure sign OF success"
