souELcHED THE PROUD ONE.
Old Traveller Took tie Starch Out OF
the Staff Officer.

A gorgeous staff officer, giittering
attendant of visiting governor. stood
at the entrance to the platform in the
Philadelphia station of the Pennsyl-
vania road the other day. There had
been historic anniversary celebrated
down the Delaware and the guests
were about to board their special train
for New York. The naughty staff Of
ficer had been stationed where he was
in order to rass in on to the platform
where the special was awaiting the
invited guests. He was very, very
proud. To him appeared an irate old
man, dictatorial of temper and apo
plectic of build.
When does the next train for Har-
risburg leave?" snapped the portly
and fiery man.
haughtily and replied In accents
mecnt to be chilling: Il am sure |
don't know"
You don't, hey?" roared the irate
inquirer, being, of course under the
impression that the staff officer was
one of the uniformed employees OF the
road; you don't, hey? Well, I'll find
out why you don't. What In thunder
are you paid for, any way?"
BY this time crowd of the expected
guests had arrived and were standing
by, listening with amusement to the
conversation. The last pointed ques.
ton of the old man was too much and
a smoker" broke out which swelled
into laugh as the staff officer, COM
pletely taken aback, stammered out:
"I-I-don't know"

Frank q. Curtis, of MllWau-
izee, is the inventor of the per-
feet storage battery. 1t is said
this invention will reduce cost
of light and power to trifiing
sum. A company has,been orga-
nized to manufacture the bat
terry and place it on the market,
but no stock is for sale. This
invention solves>a problem and
is one on which Edison has been
working for years. but it has
devolved upon a Milwaukee
genius to give it a practical APP
plication. 1t. has been tested
and found to be- everything its
inventor claims. BY its use
street railway companies will be
enabled to do away with over
head wires aud poles. The gas
oline engine and gas engine are
doomed to oblivion, should the
discovery bear out to the full
extent the promises given by
the tests. These tests have been
made in the presence of electri-
clans, and OF the shrewdest bus.
mess men in the country and
they are enthusiastic over the
result. Hence, no stock in the
new organization on the mar
ket.

The movement for better pas
senger train service is gaining
force every day. Several new
trains in the southern. part of
the state have been put on by
both the c. NJ. & St. P. and c.
& n. w. railroads. The new
trains have been put on in all
cases SO far by requests OF cltl-
zens of cities and towns along
the lines. Several cases have
been brought up before the rail
road commission but so far the
commission has not shown that
it is competent or able to do
much of anything. 1t may be
that more legislation is needed
to give them additional powers.
If the state should buy all the
lines within it's borders and turn
the same over to our railroad
commission to handle, we might
get some results from the SIS,
900 paid the commissioners per
annum.

1t is the general opinion that
unless a two cent fare rate IS
determined upon by the railroad
commiss on, bills will be intro
duced in the legislature making
two cents per mile the legal rate.
The commission, it is said, will
not give a decision in the matter
for several weeks.

RUPTURE is AVERTED
RUSSIAN LOWER HOUSE IGNORES
czAR's REFUSAL TO RECEIVE
ITS DELEGATION.

St. Petersburg, May 21.-The threat
ened storm over the emperor's refusal
to receive the delegation from the
lower house of parliament, appointed
to present to him it's reply to the
speech from the throne, has, been
averted. The house during the after
noon adopted a resolution to proceed
with the regular order of business
and the discussion OF the agrarian
question began.
The moderate leaders Of the COnsti-
tutional Democrats, after laboring
with the hotheads until the early
morning hours, succeeded in convinc-
ing them that it would be fatal blum
der to precipitate a conflict upon a
false issue and a resolution was pre-
pared pointing out that the impor-
tance Of the address consisted in it's
contents and not in the form In which
1t is transmitted to the emperor. Some
