Locomotives Approved.

1t is reported that a German firm
has been awarded a contract from ia.
pan for locomotives only after very
Ree- competition with several English
firms. Germany, according to a Con-
sular report just issued by the State
Department from United States Con
sui Warner, stationed at Leipsig, is at
present busy upon orders from Italy,
Russia and Japan. The Consul fur
ther says: 1T has not been so long ago
that a firm of Leeds, England. was Civ
en- an order for locomotives by the
Sudanese Railroad simply because the
firm was prepared to ill the order
within five or six months while an
American firm could not even promise
to do so in twice that length Of time.
The Sudanese Railroad is at present
using American locomotives, and with
such success that it was reluctant to
go elsewhere for new ones" An
American locomotive company have
shipped about 100 locomotives to ia.
pan The Yankee locomotives in use
on the Sudanese Railway were built
at Philadelphia and have been found
not only cheaper in their initial cost
than British engines also employed on
the African roads. but less expensive
in operation, as they consumed less
coal and oil than the Scotch locomo-
tlves.-Journal of Commerce.

THE TAcTFUL SPEECH.
A Type OF the Little Tragedies That
Happen-in Society.

The young woman who prides her
self on saying the happy word at the
happy moment was tested the other
day. She wore d pearl-gray gown to
a club reception, and Glanced to be
talking art off in a corner with viva
cious lady who was slipping chocolate.
Suddenly another woman broke into
the conversation
my dear" she said to the vlvacious
lady 1T seems that Mrs. Hemingway
is an old sweetheart Of your husband.
She has been telling us what charming
letters he used to write her, and she
wants SO much to meet you. oh. here
she is now! Do let me present"
The vivaclous lady sprang to her
feet. She would not have showed a
touch Of embarrassment for worlds.
and in her effort TO appear delighted
she poured her chocolate, with its
whipped cream, all down the front Of
the maiden in gray.
Don't mention itv' exclaimed the
tactful girl, as she mopped the brown
ocean with a lace handkerchief. I'm
sure it's no wonder you were awkward,
the circumstances were so embauass-
ingl Besides II isn't half so bad for
me as it is for you. know | should

make excuses! You mustn't worry
about 1t at all. Llstenl have lovely
new gown coming home tonight. II it
weren't for that / couldn't have be-
haved so well about this"
About that time look on the viva
cious lady's face brought the sweet
prattler to herstif with a shock. and
she started for home, devoutly wishing
that she had been born mute.
There was another cheerful little
spill at a recent church dinner. The
president of the missionary society,
attlred as a waitress and carrying a
platter of butter balls, airily poised on
one hand, approached the table she
was serving No one will ever know
Just how it happened, but the harmless
lady in black silk who was sitting at
the table suddenly felt a soft shower
Of something on her shoulders. and
then realized that the platter it
self had followed the butter-balls and
landed between her and the back of her
chair The amateur waitress, with an
exclamation of dismay, extracted the
platter and began to ladle out the
misshapen globes of butter. while the
buttered lady tried to think of some
thing kind and comforting to say;
but to her amazement the waitress, in
stead of expressing anxiety about The
dress, only exclaimed, Isn't that toe
exasperating? I don't believe I can
use those butter-balls at allv'

or Nights For the Gas Trust.

Like the theatres. we have our bad
nights" said a gas company director.
Saturday night is the best for the
gas companies, because 4ll the chief
stores keep open late and consume
more gas than during the other six
nights. Notice it and you will observe
that gas on Saturday night is hardly
as good as on other nights This is
because the companies are taxed to
their utmost. The force is not as great
in individual burners on that night.
"Our bad nights are holidays and
Sundays, when shops. manufactures,
saloons and other patrons are closed
down."
