IMPORTANT MATTERS TO
THE RAILROAD MEN.

There are four questions of the "
most Importance to be considered next
month by the association of general
passenger agents at the convention 70
be held at Atlantic City. and the mee--
ing promises to be one of the most
fully attended recently held.
One of the most important points to
some up under the head of new bust
ness. will be the proposition to dis
continue the making of sleeping car
reservations in advance of the date OF
departure.
There is apt to be a great deal OF
talk on the subject. and it is a ques.
ton that has been widely discussed
by railroad men all over tlR country
The opinion as to the wisdom of doiag
away with the practice are diverse.
Many capable passenger men see no
reason why the system now so gener.
ally followed should be altered. nut
here appears to be just as strong
sentiment in favor of knocking out
The practice OF holding reservations

SIT ON THE LEFT
IN DRIVING.

In driving we violate the most ele-
nentary requirements by persistently
sitting upon the wrong side of the
vehicle, writes F. M. Ware in "Out-
ing" We turn to the right and we
sit on the right, thus effectually Oh.
scuring our view ahead in traffic; com.
pelling our footman to jump down in
to the dirty street and to run all
around the carriage, both at stopping
and starting, while to the friend who
would accompany US in self-driven
vehicles we offer the alternative Of
crawling into our laps and under the
reins, or going out into the street and
swarming up from that situation; or
We alight, abandon control of the horse
and Chamber in after the passenger has
proceeded US.
Was ever anything more ridiculous?
Nor can anyone cite any single reason
for sitting on the right (where traffic
keeps to the right) or against sitting
on the left. For more than thirtyfve
years | have always sat upon the left,
For more than thirty five years have
l have always sat upon the left, and in
driving anything from four to six
horses down to one | have found it
practical, convenient, necessary.
Think OF the aggregate time lost at
theaters, the opera, etc., while hun.
dreds of footmen jump off, run around
and climb to the box again.
1t is true that coaches brake on the
off side and the brake works by hand,
but it can as we'll act by the foot; or
the handle come up off side the driv-
ing cushion, if that is on the left. Any.
how, the infrequent coach needs no
consideration; nor does the position
of it's driver.
On the left, ones whip is clear of
the face of the stranger, whether driv.
ing one or four, and yet the right arm
is always unobstructed for any work;
while even in narrow seat the
motionless whip arm is more comfor.
table for the companion than, when
seated as customary, is the constantly
moving left elbow point of the driver.

A FAMOUS OLD HYMN,

A pathetic and charming story is
told of the origin of the well-know
hymn, "Blest Be the Tie that Binds"
which was written by Rev. John
Fawcett, an English Baptist, who died
in 1917, having spent nearly go years
in the ministry.
1t was in l772, after a few years
spent in pastoral work, that he was
called to London to succeed Rev. DR..
Gill. His farewell had been preached
near Moinsgate, in Yorkshire. Six or
seven wagons stood loaded with his
furniture and books, and all was ready
for departure.
But his loving people were heart
broken. Men, women and children
gathered and clung about him and his
family with sad and fearful faces.
Finally, overwhelmed with the sorrow
of those they were leaving, Dr.. Faw-
cett and his wife sat down on one of
the packing cases and gave away to
grief.
"Oh, John," cried Mrs. Fawcett at
last, 81 cannot bear this! I don't
know how 10 CO."
"Nor l either" returned her hus-
band, land we will not go. The wa
gons shall be unloaded and every thing
put in its old place."
His people were filled with intense
joy and gratitude at this determine
ton. DR.. Fawcett at once sent let
ter to London explaining the case and
then went resolutely to his work on .
salary of less than 5000 a year.
The hymn was written by Dr..
Fawcett to commemorate this event.
Why is crow a brave bird?
Because he never shows the white

Why is stick of candy like race

Because the more you lick it the

PRA YER.

When the circuit of the Earth has been broken,
And the local OF f. h As grown weak;
May we find have n of rest
In the Office that all men must seek.
When the cross es Of earth fade away,
And our troubles and years are no mere;
Nav ve not be afraid to meet the Great Chief
And cut in on Eternity's shore.
When tho ledger Of time has been closed,
And life's balance sheet handed in;
Pray God that no errors be charged,

And Jesus shall call US to say

May our answer with truth be go. X"

Fort Lawn on a Boom.

The interesting little little vii.
lage of Fort Lawn, in Chester
county, has, according to The Ian
tern, undergone complete trans
formation as the result Of the es-
tablishment of the mammoth
power plant at Catawba Fails.
Fort Lawn is the terminus Of the
Great Falls Railroad, which has
Just been completed, ani. is
therefore the depot of supplies.
Where once the train pulled into
a drowsy little village, there is now
a hustle and confusion as the cars
roll in, and great crowd Of pas
sengers dismountine and embark
ing. A great number of laburers
arrive on almost every train and it
is expected that tie force, which
already numbers about LOO
hands, will soon be swoolen to far
more than that number. The es-
tablishment of the plant has al
ready worked wonders in and
around Fort Lawn and the Falls,
and when completed the effect
will be far more widespread.

Trying to Beat the Postoffice.

We see it stated in number of
our exchanges that at several places
people are making practice of
dropping in the boxes at the post
offices letters that bear stamps that
have been cancelled, and on which
there has been an attempt to hide
the cancellation marks. AT some
places this has become SO common
rs to be nuisance and somebody
is in danger of having TO deal with
a Federal court, as this offence is
punishable by heavy fine. We
have heard no complaint along
this lins at the local office, ano
hope that none of our people are
foolish enough TO try such thing

Brice Act to Supreme Court Again.

The Brice act is to go to the
Supreme court again, this time on
a writ of certiorari from the find :
ing of the State board of canvass
ers in the Laurens county case.
The State board Friday afternoon
threw out all objections to the
election in Laurens being declared
against the dispeusary, and the
position of the county board of
canvassers. The State board took
the position that the alleged irreg
ularities were not sufficient to va
cate the election and, on authority
of an opinion from Assistant At
torney General Youmans, decided
that the point the dispensary at
torneys raised rs to the Brice act
being abortive because of the act
of 1896, giving the, county boards
authority TO canvass special as we'll
as regular elections, was left out
of the code of 1902, WAS not well
taken. Attorney Welsh, repre-.
senting the dispensary interests,
will ask that the record of the case
as presented to tue State board
be certified to the higher court SO
as to have the latter pass upon the
points raised. In the meantime,
the Laurens dispensary will be
kept open.
Mr.. Youmsns' position was that
to throw out the act of 1896, be.
cause it had not been included in
the code, would make the Brice
act abortive, which decision would
be contrary 10 the former position
taken by the attorney general him
self, that these dispensary elections
should be held in the same manner
as general elections are conducted
