New York, Feb. %, l9O6.-The Erie Rail-
road has placed with the American Lo.
comotive Company an order for 25 loco
motives, delivery to begin in March.
These are to be exact duplicates of the
10 engines received by the Erie during
the past six months, and which have
proven so successful in passenger service
as to warrant their adoption as a stand
ard type, known all along the line as 'the
$500 class" With their tenders carry
ing l6 tons of coal and $500 gallons of wa
ter, these largest passenger service loco
motives ever constructed, weigh 3S9, ,756
pounds each, the weight of the locomotive
alone being 230, 500 pounds.
Used on the through Chicago and Buf-
falo trains of from II to 10 cars, these en-
gines easily keep a schedule time even
when hauling these long trains of the
heavy coaches now required for upto-date
passenger service. So satisfactory have
they proven in making time, during four
months trial in winter service, that the
Erie management decided to have sufIi-
cient number on hand for all emergencies
in their fast passenger train service.

Book Taken During Sherman's March
to the Sea Is Given Back to It's
Rightful Owner.

Thomas Knox, now living at Kewanee,
ILL.,, was a member of Gen. Sherman 3
army on the famous march from Atlanta
to the sea and northward through the
Carolinas. He was with Sherman in
Cheraw-40 years ago.
The other day the mails brought to
Cheraw to a Daughter of the Confeder-
acy small prayer book bearing this in
scription: MARY A. Kollock from her
brother, Alexander Gregg, 1S47." On an
other fly leaf was the name of James H
Powe, the book having been later CIV
en- to him by Miss Kollock, his cousin.
Accompanying the prayer book was a
letter from Mr.. Knox explaining how
the book came into his possession. AT
'Cheraw comrade took the book from
the Powe home, handsome colonial
mansion, and after carrying it awhile
decided to throw it away, but Mr.. Knox
asked for 1t, and 1t remained with him.
Several weeks ago Mr.. Knox wrote the
postmaster at Cheraw inquiring If there
were living here relatives of those whose
names appeared in the prayer book. His
letter was referred to Mrs. f. A. Wad-
dill. niece of Miss Mary Kollock and
also niece of Bishop Gregg, who imme-
diately wrote to Mr.. Knox, and last
week she received the precious little
book.-Cheraw Chronicle.

Famous for Artificial Moses.

The city Of Indore is modern and
ugly and uninteresting. Apart from
being the prosperous capital of a rich
state, its chief claim to notoriety rests
upon its hospital, which has won uni
versal fame by the manufacture of ar
tiicial noses. That may seem a very
limited industry on which to build a
name. But in India there are several
ways of promoting this industry. When
a woman comes to the hospital carry
ing her nose in napkin you may fair
ly assume that her husband suspects q
breach of the seventh commandment.
When man appears in the same
plight you may set him down as a
usurer who has fallen into the hands
of his clients, and has had no Portia
to plead his cause. Indore is the Mec-
ca of these unfortunates.
