c. & o. Stops
Work On Line
MYSTERIOUS DEEPWATER MAY
BE HAVING SOMETHING TO
DO WITH IT.

HUNTINGTON, June &c. - Tha
there must be some truth in the pub
locations going the rounds Of the pres.
TO the effect that the Virginia Railway
commonly known as the Tidewatel
and Deepwater, the property OF tn,
Standard OIL Company, which projec
was Matched in the fertile brain o.
H. r. Rogers, of the Standard, intends
TO effect consolidation whereby thai
company will own a trunk line from
Tidewater at Norfolk. Va, on the At
lantic coast TO Seattle, Washington, or
the Pacific coast, is evidenced by ths
fact that improvements along all con
templated trunk lines to be eoasolidat
cd, and which will form this grea,
trans.continental railway, are for the
time suspended.
While no mention is made OF The
C. & o. becoming a part of this great
system in the recent publications, II
has been stated as a fact during the
past two months, that the Virginia
Railway would acquire the C. & o.
as part Of this system. There must
be truth In these rumors.
The contractors on the new line
and double track Of the c. & o. be
tween Barboursyille and St. Adams
which will evolve the expense OF
about three million dollars and upon
which about one million has already
been expended by the railroad com
pany, have received notice from the
officials Of the c. & o. TO suspend all
work on June goth, next Saturday, un
III further notice.
This work, which extends from Bar
louisville to St. Adams, a distance Of
twenty miles, employing many hun
dreds Of men, has been a material
factor In the prosperity Of that sec
ton, as well as Of significant import
ance TO Huntington, and the news Of
the suspension of the work, which
is announced in the Herald to-day for
the first time, may create surprise In
this city.
However, the suspension OF this
work, 1t Is thought will be but for a
brief period, as great railroad mag
mates lose no time when consolidating
systems.
The Herald endeavored 10 communl
cate with Superintendent Snow, Of the
c. & O., but he was not in the city:
also with F. B. Ennow, chief attor'
ney for the c. & O., but he was in
New York City, Its intention being tc
ascertain the cause Of the suspension
on the new double track.
It can state, however, as fact that
the constructors have received notice
10 discontinue work on June 80, until
further notice, and that the contrac'
tors themselves are unaware Of the
cause for such an order.
1t Is safe to assume, however, that
the C. 6 O., after making these con.
tracts and requiring the contractors to
give bond, do not intend to indefinite
ly suspend the work on the new line.
which will remove all the heavy
grades between Barboursville and st,
Adams, the worst on the road.

HEIGHT at Which birds Civ.

A singular method of determining
the height at which birds fly when
they are migrating is recorded in
the Morning Post. Two observers
watched the moons disk at night
through small telescopes placed some
distance apart, and from the different
paths of the birds which were seen,
projected against the moon, from the
two stations, it was possible to com
pute the height and direction of fight
of each bird.
This method has been employed
and further developed this year by
Joel Stebbins e. A. Rath of the Uni
versity of Illinois, and has been used
to estimate not only the height at
which the birds fly, but to find with
much greater accuracy than has been
possible heretofore the speed of their
flight. The average height at which
migrating birds fly is not more than
1900 feet from the ground, but the
speeds at which they travel appear
to be greater than has of late years
been believed to be the case. The
minimum speeds of the birds observed
varied from so miles to 1870 miles an
hour. 1t should be said, however,
that the birds were flying with the
wind.

Don't scoId the Babies.

Self-goyernment with tenderness
here you have the condition OF all
authority over children. The child
must discover in us no passion, no
weakness of which he can make use;
he must feel himself powerless to de-
ceive or trouble us; then he will rec
ognize in us his natural superiors,
and he will attach a special value to
our kindness, because he will respect
it. The child who can rouse in us
anger or Impotence or excitement,
feels himself stronger than we, and a
child respects strength only.
The mother should consider herself
as her child's sun, a changeIess and
e~ver-radiant world, whittier the small,
restless creature, quick at tears and
laughter, light, tickle, passionate, full
of storms, may come for fresh stores
of light, warmth and electricity, of
calm and of courage.
The child sees what we are, behind
what we wish to be. Hence his repu-
tation as a physiognomist. Uncon-
sciously he passes under the infiu-
enc of each person about him, and
reflects it, while transforming it
after his own nature. He is a magni-
flying mirror. This is why the first
