LOCAL OFFICERS HOME.

Local officials who attended the
meeting of Pennsylvania officials in
Pittsburg, have returned home. The
purpose of the meeting was to discuss
company schedules. Nothing definite
was done owing to the spirit of un-
rest at present existing in railroad cir
cles and the meeting adjourned to
meet probably in two weeks. It is
known that there will be no radical
changes made in the time cards of
the different divisions as the present
schedules are as near perfect as could
be wished.

''No. I don't like to give credit" said

New England Arguments.

TO argue Is as necessary to a New
Highlander As to eat and to sleep. BY
nature he rejoices in the opposite side
OF every question, and he prefers
broad, general questions of which he
knows only what the daily paper tells
him. If he is alone he will argue with
himself, and often he will prove to-
himself that he is wrong and that the
argument by which he proves it is
faulty.-From ''The Balance of Pow.
