JAPAN BUILDING RAILWAYS.

Twenty Thousand Miles of Track Urs>
der Construction.
Although the miles Of railway al
ready built and in use in the diminu-
tive country of Japan would make
double track across the American con-
tinent, the sunrise kingdom has reach
ed only the first period in its railway
age, says the Booklovers' Magazine.
When the lines now under construction
and proposed are completed, Japan
will have 10000 miles of track. Its
railway men estimate that during the
coming decade their country will pur-
chase 1000 locomotives, 10000 passen-
ger coaches and 100000 freight cars. =.
Here is an opportunity for American
enterprise; for there is a tendency on
the part of the Japanese, just at pres
ent, to look to the United States for
ideas In regard to railway equipment
and management. Hitherto England
has been Japan's model in railway af:
fairs. .z,-.
One ride in a railway train In. the
land of the rising. sun does much to

Uncle Sam is the godfather of Japan.
Take a train at Yokohama and ride
to Tokyo, and but for the character

readily believe you were travelling

Walk as if You Were Somebody.

walk as II 4 on w ere SOmcUOOY.
Never allow your physical standard
to drop. Keep up your energy; walk
as If you were somebody and were
going to do something worth while in
note your bearing and mark your supe-
riority. If you have fallen into habit
of walking in listless, indolent way,
turn right about face at once and
make a change. You don't want to
shuttle along like the failures we often
lolling about the streets, with their
hands in their pockets, or haunting in
telligence offices, and wondering why
fate has been so hard with them. You
don't want to give people the impress
sion that you are discouraged, or that
you are already falling to the rear.
Straighten up, then! Stand erect! Be
a man! You are child of the Infinite
King. You have royal blood in your
veins. Emphasize it by your bearing.
A man who Is conscious of his kim
ship with God, and of his power, and
who believes thoroughly in himself,
walks with firm, vigorous step, with
his head erect, his chin in, his shoul-
ders thrown back and down, and his
chest well protected in order to give a
large lung capacity; he is the man who
does things.
You cannot aspire. or accomplish
great or noble things SO long as you
assume the attitude and bearing of q
coward or weakling. If you would be
noble and do noble things, you must
look up. You were made to look up.
ward and to walk upright, not to look
down or to shamble along in semi
horizontal position. Put character, dig
nifty, nobility into your walk.-O. s
Marden in Success.

CASTOR TALKS
FORMER CANTON MAN CHANGES
HIS TACTICS AT COLUMBUS
He Is Now In a Philosophical Frame
OF Mind and Takes Exercise.
Trial Begins Monday.

Columbus, o., Nov. 29.-"The world
soon forge,s one," said Frank Castor,
in a melancholy manner, from the
main corridor of the county jail, where
he had been admitted today for exer-
else, and where newspaper men were
admitted for The first time In three
months to interview him.
AS would be inferred from Castor's
words, he has given up all hope OF
playing demented and has come to
stern realization of his condition.
When seen Tuesday morning he pre-.
sented different appearance than he
did the las time he was seen. Dur
Ing the period he has lost considerable
flesh and his face is not as round and
as harsh as it was at first. His voice,
too, has lost much of its strength
from disuse and he talks in hesita,-
ing tone, as IL feeling his way. Now
and then he win smile in way which
is anything but attractive on his wdh
couutenance.
For the last three days Castor has
dropped his attempts at deceit and
has been up walking around and talk
ing to whoever comes his way Mon
day afternoon he had quite an inter
esting talk with DR.. G. s. Carr. wnn
was inspecting the county Jail in his
capacity as member of the board o.
county visitors.
"How are you feeling this morning,
Frank?" inquired Sheriff Karb
"Pretty well, thank you, sheriff, you
see have been sick for two months"
he answered. He always refers to his
shamming as sickness.
"Have you anything to say to the
public this morning?" was question
put by reporter.
mo, guess not, the world soon
forgets one-even the best Of people
The people soon forgot Mark Hanna
and Il has always been that way; they
soon forget you"
AS the reporters and the sheriff left
the corridor he continued his walk up
and down the corridor in an attempt
to gain strength enough to bear hiEi
over his trial for murder. which will
commence Monday morning.

FROM ITALY
SLAY6AcK RETURNED ONLY TO
GET INTO TROUBLE
His Body Attached In a Suit to Force
Him to Pay Judgment of $1,000,-
600 in Stock Deal.

Norwalk, Conn, No. 29.-After try
ing to locate G. Munson Raymond Tor
the las two years, the agenls OF John
ID. Slay back, OF New York, have at
last succeeded in finding him and
have attached his body in a suit to
force him to pay q judgment of 1000.
900 which was secured against him
by Mr.. Slayback, In the New York
supreme court two years ago. Yester-
day afternoon Sheriff Hawley of
Bridgeport found Raymond in Nor
walk, at the home of his nephew,
Seymour Curtis, treasurer of the Fair
field County Savings bank.
In order to keep out Of jail, Mr..
Raymond has consented to have Dep
uty sheriffs Stagg and Scully remain
with him day and night. The case is
retulnable to the December, term of
the superior court.
Mr. Raymond acted as agent for
Slayback in deal in the Corbon Steel
company's stock few years ago. Ray
mond Is alleged to have appropriated
the 10000 shares of stock which Slay-
back placed in his hands. Justice
Leventritt, In the New York supreme
court two years ago, ordered Raymond
to return the stock, which is now
worth s1,00O.000 Raymond disappear
ed. Shortly after the judgment was
given In 1904 he was located In Nor
walk and body writ was issued
against him. He disappeared before
the writ could be served, and was
next heard of in Italy. He reappeared
in Norwalk few weeks ago.

WANT OPTION
On Alliance Brewery II the New Com
pany is Formed.

The latest move in the brewery busi-
ness is the organization of q company
at Youngstown similar to the Stark
Tuscarawas Brewing company. The
initial steps are being taken by the
Youngstown people, the principals of
which are the Renner and Smith in
terests In that city. In case this COM
pany will be organized, which. at the
present time looks favorable, the AL
lance brewery is desired. They claim
it should belong to the proposed new
company, and they have already asked
for an option upon It, 1t is probable
that the directors of the Alliance
Brewing company will be called to-
gether the first week In December for
the purpose of deciding whether their
plant will be optioned or not.
In this connection IL . is proper To
state that the new brewery building
Is fast nearing completion. The smoke
stack is completed and four of the
stories of the main building are now
up.-Alliance Review.
