Dad Murphy's Brevity.

Old Dad Murphy, as he was affec.
tionately known to the boys on the
road, was conductor ON trunk line,
transporting large shipments of live
stock from the west. Dad had been in
the service so long that the rules OF
railroading had become second nature
to him, and the result of the superin.
tendent's frequent orders to the train
men to answer with military breyity
all questions and messages, especially
those by telegraph, to relieve the bur.
den on the wires, had reduced Dad to
habitually short, concise replies, even
to his conversation. On baking hot
July day, when not breath of air
was stirring, and the sun beat on the
car roofs till the pitch pulled the
soles off the brakeman's shoes, Dad,
in looking over his train, discovered
that eight hogs had succumbed to the
heat. When passing the next tele-
graph station he threw off a message
to the superintendent.
"Burhans( Supt.-Eight hogs dead

MURPHY, NO. 49,"
At the second telegraph office re.
celved his answer:

present condition Of the hogs?
"BURHANs."

"The engineer disregarded signals"

"The engineer disregarded signals"
In future this verdict will seldom
be reached in investigations into rail
road accidents. Recent surprise
tests" held by an eastern railroad
showed that only three per cent. OF
more than 1000 engineers ran past
danger" and caution" signals sud
denly sprung upon them. This means
that the engineer is being trained to
closer regard for signals, and that the
modern system of signaling has facili-
tated this training.
On the railroad automatic telegraph
block and interlocking switch and sig
nal systems are used. Automatic sig
nails are controlled by the train, and
human agency has nothing to do with
their operation. The telegraph block
signal system and the interlocking
switch and signal system each require
an operator to. manipulate. The auto
matte signal does not require an at
tendant. At block signal stations the
rules of the company require that the
operator report to the proper officials
any engineer not properly observing
all signals. With the automatic block
signal system, however, the signals
are located between these offices,
where there is no one to report non
observance of the signals. The auto
matte system thus naturally affords

AS TO SPEED AND SAFETY.
1t Is Asserted That Slower Trains
I. Less Often Meet with Disaster.

1t is no new defense that the rail-
roads are making, when confronted
with the result of disasters to their
fastest and best trains, that the great
demand of the public for extra speed
compels the shortening of time. This
attempted justification has been put
forward for a number of years, and
there Is no disputing that the travel
ing public does make this require
ment. But is the admitted fact,
says the Boston Herald, justification
for the increased speed without cor
responding advance in the conditions
of safety?
In demanding to be carried in the
shortest possible time between, say,
New York and Chicago, do travellers
of due caution by the carrying corpor-
alton? Even If they choose TO so re-
linquish. is the company justified in
neglecting properly to guard them
against the fatal effect of their own
inclinations? A man is forcibly re-
strained from committing suicide
when the attempt is discovered in
time. The railroad officials say they
are using the best machinery and the
most perfect type of equipment and
are constantly trying to secure the
most complete safeguards against &C.
cident. But, meantime, the proper
ton of fatal accidents, when compared
to numbers Of people carried, in

that the ratio of passengers killed to
those carried Is nearly six times
greater here than in Great Britain,
and seven times greater than in Ger

have faster trains than ours, but the

BLAMED TO MILK
Report of British Royal Commission on
 TubercuIosis.

London, Feb. 1.-The royal commits sion on tuberculosis, which was ap- pointed in August, 1901, has just issued a lengthy report on tubercular diseases. This report sets forth that man is lia- ble to infection by bovine tuberculosis, and that cows milk containing tuber- culous bacilli is responsible for a ma jcrity of the cases of such infection
 These findings are supported by a long series of exhaustive experiments and researches, which are described in the report. The report is considered to be of the greatest importance as demon- strating conclusively that the theory or Prof. Robert Koch of Berlin announced in 1900, was based upon insufficient and IT isinterpreted observation. This com mission was appointed as a result of Prof. Kochs assertion that bovine and human tuberculosis were quite distinct diseases The chairman of the commits sion was the late Sir Michael Foster.

MRS. ROSE PASTOR STOKES
ADDRESSES LARGE AUDIENCE
 AT UNITED CHURCH,

Hardship to Her Comes From Necessity
 of Contributing to the Support of
 Others Who Live in Idle luxury
 Manufacturers Do Not Guard Health
 of EmpIoyes-Poor Do Not Want
 Charity but Justice.
 A very large audience was present at the United church last night to greet Mrs. Rose Pastor Stokes, wife of J. G. Phelps Stokes, the well-known New York settlement worker and socialist. Mrs. Stokes was introduced by Mrs. Frances Sheldon Bolton, president of the Mothers club under whose, aus pices the lecture was given. Her sub ject was ''The Condition of the Work ing Woman from the Working Wom- ans Point of View
 Mrs. Stokes said that she appeared before a New Haven audience with some misgiving, because of the we'll known conservatism prevailing here, WiliOl Ndo III ildl hCd SOhlA tNpb " uiOA radical ideas. But she felt sure her words would be received readily, be- cause they were the expression of an honest conviction, and we are all searching ofter the truth.
 The distinction between the working woman, and the woman in the classes about her is that the working woman produces more than she consumes, and the other consumes more than she pro- duces. The hardship to the former comes from the fact that she must con- tribute to thos ewho live in idle lux ury. If the burden were more evenly divided, she sees that she need not work so hard, and she would have more time for her moral and spiritual de- velopment. All business to day is con- ducted with the sole idea of profit, and the manufacturer makes no effort to protect his employees from the deadly tuberculosis.
 It is not only the physical persons that suffers. It is often that the characters suffer as we'll Good means of amuse- ment are not provided, and the result is that the bad sorts of gayety is resort ed to. Some employers try to allevi- ate this condition somewhat, but their efforts do not represent justice in the case. The girl appreciates the efforts, but when she gets scarcely enough to keep body and soul together she re- alizes that there is an element of in- | justice in the system.
 | Statistics bear out the assertion that one half of the wealth goes to those who take no part in it's productioin, the other half goes to those who take a part in it's production. This is an in- justice.
