Farmers Denied a sidetrack.

The board of railroad commissions
ers has rejected the application of the
farmers living between Melvern and
OIivet on the Santa Fe in the south
part of Usage county on the cutoff,
for a sidetrack The board found, af-
ter an investigation, that Melvern and
Olivet were only seven miles apart,
and that a sidetrack on the right hand
track would make it necessary to haul
shipments back to the station to cross
to the other track. There is no town
where it was proposed to build
the siding, and the commissioners did
not think that the business would
Justify the expense involved.

The Voice In the Choir.

The voice in the choir seemed to ascend up and up through the vaulted ceiling by way of the marble pillars. like a silver thread. It was divine. She sat enraptured through the ser mon to hear 1t again. Then on her way out she said to the sexton:
 Do they keep him on ice to pre- serve his voice? Do they wrap him in cotton till he is ready to sing. and feed him with a spoon?"
 They do nothing of the sort" the sexton replied. They don't take care of him at ali. He is the worst little rascal in the choir and up to the most mischief. His voice will last only year or so. then he will be just an ordinary child. It is so with them all"
 Somehow she wished he hadn't told her that as she went out in the dark street and walked along home.

SPIT BALL EXPERT.

 Edward Walsh, the Chicago Ameri- can clubs great spit ball pitcher, and the lad who is given the main credit for the showing the White Box made last season, was educated in Scranton. Pa, the home of the illustrous Bill Coughlin, now of the Detroit team, but of revered memory in Washington City.
 The school which the Chicago twirler attended is still presided over by the same old gentleman who once taught Edward his A. E. C'E. md when Walsh by his masterly pitching last summer, was made the subject of much comment on the part of the papers, his fame ct last was brought to the notice of his former teacher, who is spoken of as yeritable book worm, and not at all familiar with the fine points of the greatest Amerl- can game of baseball. When this learned person was told of how his former pupil was engaged in making baseball history by reason of his cleverness in throwing the spitball, the ancient pedagogue seem- ed to awaken to the point of taking notice, for he said. in his slow, even tones:
 "A great spitball thrower is Ed ward, eh? We'll, it must be the re- suit of early practice. as he threw many one at me-"
