RAILROAD NOTES


Employees of the Pennsylvania
Railroad are taking measures to help
in the matter of relief during sick
ness. They have asserted that for
some time payments made during i'll
ness or injury have not been adequ-
ate and as the management has been
unable to increase the amount of the
relief fund it will form auxiliary or
CARNATIONS among themselves and
thus care for those disabled by sick
ness or accident.
James A. Keegan, master mechanic
of the Grand Rapids & Indiana road,
is en- route to California, where he
expects to stay six weeks. Several
days ago Mr.. Keegan sustained an
injury to one of his knees, which
makes him lame and he is unable to
attend to the active duties of his Of
fee, hence he takes this trip.
Warren Holton, travelling passen-
ger agent of the Union Pacific Rail-
way, was here yesterday on business.

MAY FINISH DOUBLE TRACK
BETWEEN INDIANAPOLIS AND
COLUMBUS NEXT SUMMER.
Panhandle Contemplates Needed I'm
provement-No Work to be
Done in Richmond.

1t is reported that the Pennsylva-
MIA will complete the double track be-
tween Columbus and Indianapolis
next summer. The road is double
tracked between Columbus and New
York City, and almost all of the way
from Columbus to Greenville, Ohio.
Along the Indianapolis division there
are many long passing sidings which
will help greatly in the work.
There will be no need of any gangs
of laborers in this city for that pur-
pose, as there is double track between
the New Paris Junction and the end
of the "Z' tower siding, west of
Richmond, this track having been put
down several years ago.

Wife, FARM AND CASH GONE
MICHIGAN MANS TROUBLES
ATTRIBUTED TO HYPNoTIsM.
Better Half May Writes
Letter from Ireland Explaining
Magnetic Sway on Train.

Charlotte, Mich, Feb. 13.-His
farm and money gone and his wife in
the power of hypnotist are the chief
factors in George Blowers story of
business trials and domestic tribula-
ton.
Last fall, Blowers, with several
others in this vicinity, caught the
Oklahoma fever, and started for the
southwest. Blowers sold his farm
ing equipment, but before the sale
of the farm had been consummated,
he accompanied by his wife, left for
Guymon. Shortly after their arri-
val local real estate dealers who had
charge of the property, notified
Blowers that the sale had been made,
and upon execution Of the proper
transfers, the money, which was on
deposit in a local bank, could be
paid him. Blowers share amount
ed to about $1,70O.
Mrs. Blowers returned here with
authority to close the deal and re-
ceive the $1,70O, which was paid her
in cash. In the early part of No
vember Mrs. Blowers started back to
Oklahoma. She left the train at
Kansas City and has not been seen
since.
Blowers waited several days, and
finally became suspicious. About a
month ago he received a letter from
her postmarked Cork, Ireland, in
which she says she is under the pow
er of man who hypnotized her
while riding on a train through Mis-
souri,. The woman writes that she
tried to evade the man, who occupied
section opposite her, but she could
not resist him. In closing she tells
Blowers she still loves him and asks
for money to buy ticket home.

JACK" sNAvELEY HAS BEEN
A LONG TIME IN PANHANDLE
SERVICE.
NOW IN CLAIM DEPARTMENT
Began Work as Switchman-Has
Had a Varied Career-Joined
Army When Boy.

"Jack" Snaveley, the well known
Claim Agent of the Pennsylvania
Railway in this city, today celebrates
the 33rd anniversary of his service
with the Pennsylvania Railroad, the
greater part Of the time being with
the police and claim departments.
Mr.. Snaveley is known from one
end of the line to the other
He had widely varied
line of work since he left his
home in Pennsylvania, when he was
a boy. The tale is an interesting
one.
At seventeen years "Jack" was so
anxious to join the Union army, that
the captain would not turn him down
on account of his age and size, but
gave him a rife and uniform, and
told him to come along. This was in
1861. He served two enlistments,
and being mustered out in 1866, COM
nenced to work for the Pennsylva
MIA. He worked with the road in
Pittsburg for five years and then quit
for few months. Later, he went
back to the road and worked for two
years in Pittsburg, then came west
TO Indianapolis, and on the 18th day
of February, 1873, commenced as
switchman in the Indianapolis yards.
Early in his service he suffered the
loss Of an arm, and was then trans
ferred to the police department of
indianapolis, and was connected
there for twelve years, during the
time when the railroads were having
the greatest trouble with freight
thieves. He also did some work for
the law department of the division
while in the police department.
Since 1885, Mr.. Snaveley has been
with the claim department altogeth-
er, for the first nine years with the
Indianapolis division as claim agent
and since 1894 he has been with the
claim department of the road, with
supervision over this vicinity.

TO GET BUSINESS MEN
INTERESTED.
IN GETTING UP 4 FAST TEAM
Richmond Can Get in q Minor Lea
gue-A New Park is Wanted
Near City.
IN GETTING UP A FAST TEAM

There is bare possibility that
/ Richmond will be represented this
coming season in a strong minor
baseball league. Clarence Jessup has
been approached by promoters of a
league composed of northern Indiana
and southern Michigan cities and he
told them that he would like to Sc
cure a franchise for this city but
that it was extremely doubtful if
Sunday ball would be permitted.
There is an agitation now on foot
to secure the interest of prominent
business men and the street car COM
pany in the project, and if the at
tempt proves successful, stock COM
pany will be formed to take over the
franchise and strong team will be
at once secured, that will give the
many fans of this city the fastest ar
ticle of the national game ever seen
in Richmond.
There are two objects that stand in
the way Of the successful culmina
ton of this scheme. The first and
most important is the question of
Sunday baseball. There is state law
against Sunday baseball but the only
city in the state that is represented
in league where Sunday baseball is
not permitted is Indianapolis. Prose
cutting Attorney Wilfred Jessup was
asked yesterday what stand he would
take on Sunday baseball, and he stat
ed that if there was an attempt made
to that effect this season he would
take no action unless ai1idavits were
fled and in that case he would pros
ecute any violations of the Sunday
baseball law.
The second question that confronts
the promoters of the proposed Rich
mond baseball team is a site for a
ball park. The Driving Park where
the games were formerly played is
now being dismantled and it will be
necessary to secure. new site. Even
if the Driving Park was available, it
is doubtful If il would be selected,
as the men behind the scheme are Of
the opinion that it is too far from
the center of the city.
If the scheme does 90 through the
park will be located just on the out
skirts of the city about a five minutes
ride from Eighth and Main streets on
the street cars and about ten min
utes walk. It has been suggested
that the Athletic Park would be
suitable place. a.~ So.
Clarence Jessup yesterday said
that he had signed a contract to play
with New London N the Connecticut
League but if there was a chance of
Richmond getting into a good minor
league he would remain here to play.
~ realize that there might be
some opposition to Sunday baseball
in Richmond" said Jessup "but l am
almost tempted to make the attempt
of interesting local business men who
are devotees of the game of placing
a team in Richmond. There would be
week day games, as well as Sunday !
games, and | am sure that this city
is large enough to support a good
team, if the park is not located too
far from the business center of town.
| intend to give the matter consider,
alton, and to find out whether / can
interest capital in the scheme before
| take any steps in the NATTER
Jessup stated that there would be
no difficulty in securing fast team.

THE USEFUL YAWN.

TIE act of yawning is distinctly
beneficial in two ways. In the first
place it serves the purpose of lung
ventilation. The lungs are not filled
or exhaused by ordinary respiration.
There is certain quantity of air
which Psychologists call "residual air.
left in the recess of the lungs after the
ordinary respiration. This in time
becomes vitated and effects the blood
and, through it, the nervous centers.
The result is yawn, which is
really stretching of the respiratory
chamber to its fullest capacity and the
filling of it with freshly inspired air
out. Yawning is also beneficial in SO
far as opens, stretches and vent tes
the vocal, nasal and auditory cham
bers in immediate connection with the
month.
The cracking sound often heard
when yawning is due to the stretching
and opening of the eutachian tules
from communication tween th e
middle ear ani the back of the throat.
The deafness which often accompanies
cold is due to the congestion Of these
tubos-L9ndon Hospital.

MANS HUMILITY.

Sculptor and painter express a pre-
ference for the masculine figure as a
type of beauty, but this prejudice
never has pervaded the minds of the
laity. Women have keener eye for
color effects. Few men in purchasing
a tie stop to consider how it accords
with their complexions. They wouldn't
know, anyhow. Such physical imper-
fections as women possess they may
conceal under flowing lines of drapery.
What recourse has the bowlegged man
or the one with knock knees? Abso-
lutely none. In draperies he never
could catch a car. A woman will put
on her head towering creation built
up of the remains of songsters,a a thing
in itself hideou8 She will wear dress
that squee zes her waist until above
and below there is breath of deformity
that argues actual pain. She will put
on shoes with heels about the length
and diameter of the human fingers and
as she limps a. with studied grace
will, with the u Il of her skirt, sweep
from the street paper, rags cigarette
stumps and bacll. All this time she
will look perfectly lovely" and man,
whose hat is a comfortable covering,
and whose heels are built for contract
with the pavement, feels that she is
superior.
This is an institution He looks at
the bills for her toggery, and his opin-
ion Is confirmed. This is conviction
There seems to be no remedy. The
male habit of wearing such clothes as

most-of southern Maryland is aban-
@0ned land or ''old fields" Trees
grow rapidly, and you will find pines
six or eight inches in diameter stand
ing thickly where the stubble and
ridges of the last corn crop are not yet
obliterated. Much of the land ia cul,
tiva ted only every third year. Some
of it lies for eight or ten years to rest,
i. e., to accumulate little humus and
a little soluble plant food, and it is
then found to be capable of again
growing fair crops of tobocco. This
system is surely the most primitive Of
all husbandry. These soils do wash
and gully fearfully, owing to their pc
culiar natural character, together with
the absence of vegetable matter to act
as binding material and the fact that
there are no small stones, as in the
glaciated regions, to form a pavement
on the bottom Of any little water
course. In time of rains. the hills
simple slip down into the valleys, and
country road frequently becomes a
cutting 20 feet below the level of the
adjacent land.
Commercially this section seems an
example of arrested development.
Two dead railroad projects stretch
their length across 1.-THE grading all
complete-the ties even drawn in many
places, and never a rail laid, and fair
slz ed trees growing on the old cuts
and fills. So this old land lics-a
very interesting region-a region, it
aeelns to me, Of possibilities for the fu-
ture. II has at least kindly climate,
and the best markets of the world are
close at hand. 1t has a people. of
southern training and instincs, it is
true, but hospitable in the extreme,
and many of them with centuries of
breeding and education behind them.
1t has the race problem in as acute
form as anywhere in the South. 1t
has suffered from too great devotion
to single crop, which is most exact
ing in its demands and which does
tend to deplete soil fertility. 1t is the
place, as a great horticulturist has
said, where the peach reaches its high
est perfection. Occasional specimens
of this tree are said to be SO years old
and more than a foot in diameter, yet
there are few large orchards.
Its people suffered fearfully from the
results of the war, and they have been
broken and discouraged ever since;
yet hope is reviving, and those who
know best think they have made the
turn. They will yet come cut all
right II seems to me that what this
country needs is not special acts of
the legislature or any social panacea,
but less tobacco and more animal hus-
bandry-more corn and clover and
cow peas and hogs and dairy COWS.
Land here was worth Sl0O per acre
when the war b. oke out. It has been
yerv low since almost without nrioa
at times. 1t is high now. There is
gold in those old soils when men learn
to dig it out. Some day Southern
Maryland will come to her own again.
