admitted, with joyous candor ITS

always had a particular fondness, a
keen sympathy with boys. I never
have believed them quite as bad as
their enemies would have the world
think. But when boy becomes a
man, while he stih has my sympathy.
my feelings toward him undergo i
change, as it were.
Even where I have known them as
boys / do not find them as tractable, as
easily managed when they grow up.
Often I have called upon their sons TO
help me subdue them, sometimes to
help me catch them when they try to
run away. That 1 have done efficient
service is evidenced by the reputation
that I have acquired. Everybody in
the city asserts that have, in my few
years service. attained an influence
over the stoclSyard element that could

NEW BRAKE WILL
STOP BIG TRAINS

AS the result Of three years con-
tinuous experiments. whiel the Penn
sylvania Railroad has greatly facilltat-
ed, the Westinghouse Airhrake Com
pany has perfected "a new quick service
brake which IS capable Of operating on
trains Of 100 cars. The Pennsylvania. has
just made this new form of apparatus
standard for its freight cotipment and
has begun applying II to oil new cars
placed on its line.
Similar action has been decided on
by a number Of other roads. The new
brake is not only quick acting in cases
Of emergency. but is equally applicable
for ordinary stops. Numerous tests I'm
actual service have shown the new
brake has an efficiency nearly double
that attained by the old standard. When
the quick-acting automatic brakes were
adopted by the Pennsylvania in 1890 Il
was believed that trains would never
exceed fifty heavy cars Improvement
in the roadbed and locomotives have
made Il possible TO run trains of 75
and so cars ana such lengths of trains
are common on several roads. The new
brake is a betternent upon the recom-
mendatlons Of the interstate commerce

An order has been issued by the man

the lines of the Santa Fe as railroad,
canceling the rates that have always
been allowed to travelling passenger
agents.
Fred Harvey, the founder of the Har-

merly travelling passenger agent, ana
after his eating house venture became
so successful, remembering with a
pang, the trials and fluctuations of the
travelling passenger agent, he generous
ly announced that he would make one
third reduction from all prices for the
benefit of travelling passenger agents of
all roads
When Fred Harvey died he is said to
have made a will in which he expressed
a command that the arrangements he
had in force for reducing rates to trav-
cling passenger men be kept in full
force and effect, after his death. Mr..
Harvey always enjoyed a warm spot in
the hearts of the travelling passenger
men, on this account, whether the men
had been personally acquainted with the
eating house man or not.

regret of the recent order issued by
the management that has succeeded to

a very costly plant it is said to finish
the product. The one in contemplation
is to cost $3.50, 900.

Going to put the matter up to the ma

that the com mission will stand on its
rights ard insist that the western
league go back to class B. where it be-
longs, according to the population. In
fact. this is positively the extent OF
what the commission could do in the
matter, IS the national association has
the right to handle internal affairs,
and will take very good care that the
will never become a menace to the or
ganization again.
Every one of the minor leagues OF
this country is for that article in the

B league is vitality interested in this
rule and every league in a lower class
is of the same mind. The nationar
commission has no power in the mat

to one it would be used to keep the
Western league on level keel with the
present men in control.
There is not a class A league with
the Western league at heart, simply
because they have been granted privi-
leges they fail to appreciate. It's
really amusing to note what one man
can do in the trouble making line IN
the middle west and get away with it
year after year. Scuttling ship at
sea is a mild sort of amusement COM
pared to stealing town from another
league in the same organization. The
west must be a wonderful baseball
country, considering the many erup-
tions the game has stood out there.
