Burma is said to be peopled by about
the LATEST race in the world. Work is
never done except when absolutely
necessary, and even then as little as
possible and that in the easiest. most
shiftless manner If Burman wishes
TO cultivate a piece of ground he sets
fire to the bushwood as cheap, easy
and efIicacious method of preparing
the virgin soil. For two or three years
he cultivates TINT piece of land and
sets ire to another spot. allowing the
jungle to grow in the old place, which
will lie ready for returning when the
other ground wants rest. Rice grow
ers dispense with plows. turning loose
instead a number of buffaloes, which
cut up the saturated sod with their
hoofs. When Burman has earned a
little money he Immediately proceeds
to spend 1t all, for the Burmese have
no ambition to be rich and never
hoard. Consequently there are no
large landowners. and. there being no
aristocragy. the people are as near be-
Ing on an equality as possible. Poor
folk are quite as rare as the rich. and
the only beggars to be met are the
lepers. who sit on the steps Of the
pagodas.

perfments on the explosive power Of
coal dust A disused shaft $50 feet
was chosen for the purpose. Samples
Of dust from different collleries were
collected for the purpose. When two
hundredweight of dust was emptied
down shaft and a charge Of gun.
powder fired. the result was startling.
Huge tongues of flame sixty feet in
height shot up from the mouth Of the
shaft. and enormous columns Of smoke
rose high in the air. forming a great
black pail over the scene of the ex-
ploslon. On the other hand. when high
explosives were used no effect at all
was produced on the dust. Coal is the
carbonized remains OF tree MOSES.
Oddly enough. these moses were the
big forefathers OF the moss we know
as lycopodium. which in a powdered
state is used to produce dash signals.
This will help to give an idea Of the
intensely Inflammable nature of coal
dust.

Mortified VIII Not Get State Road This
Year

A letter has been received from the sec
rotary OF the Massachusetts highway COM
mission regarding the continuation of the
ago in the south portion of Main street
The state road has been satisfactory and
on account of the advantages arising
from II the citizens are urgent that It
should be continued, especially toward
the south, and the selectmen have many
times brought the matter before the COM
missloneTs. To recent request that an
appropriation should be made this year
A. b. Fletcher, secretary of the commits
sion, replies that 1T is not probable that
they will be able to allOt any money to
Mortified for state highway work this
year owing to the fact that the board is
endeavoring to get the east and west line
completed before taking up other lines.
The needs of Mortified have been con-
sdered by the board but IT cannot see
its way clear to make an allotment at
the present time. II is the opinion of the
commission that when the Mortified
work is undertaken allotments should be
made of sums sufficient to complete the
road within a reasonable time"
It is generally understood by the Sc
are to make an allotment to Montague
and then TO make an appropriation to
Mortified and so connect the two pieces
of road. This must eventually come in
a few years at the latest but I'm no way
Is there encouragement that the road will

ENLARGED FREIGHT TRAFFIC.
Central Vermont Railway May Be
Largely Increased.

In completing plans for the construc-
ton OF a steam road between Southbridge
and Palmer, which President Mellen has
said will make connection with the Grand
Trunk at the latter place. the New Haven
company has made a strategic railroad
move to secure increased business This
is the most important trunk line connec-
ton secured by the New Haven since Mr.
Mellen took charge of its affairs
1t was at first thought that the Palmer
Southbridge route was simply an electric
line to connect Springfield and Worcester
by filling up the gap now open in the
trolley service between those cities in a
direct line, although there is an indirect
connection by way of Ware and West
Brookfield 1t Is clear from President Mel
lens latest statements that it is to be a
steam road 1t ends at Palmer because at
that point il can connect with the New
London Northern, which is owned by the
Central Vermont which in turn Is a part
of the Grand Trunk system, over the
Canadian Pacific rails
The new Haven road now owns and OPP
crates a line from Boston to Southbridge.
through Needham and Blackstone to East
Douglas Junction and continuing through
Putnam. Willmantic and Middletown to
New Haven. Branching off from the line
al East Douglass Junction is a little
branch which runs through Webster to
built, double tracked, it is supposed, and
at Southbridge will connect with the line
being surveyed from Southbridge to
Palmer.
The Central Vermont route will take
the cars from Palmer to Brattleboro and
Montreal, to the west. Manifestly this ar
rangement means closer relations be-
tween the New Haven system and the
Central Vermont line, which is the only
line in New England outside the two
great systems. the New Haven and the
Boston & Maine, 1t has been talked for
years that the New Haven line would
gobble it up and would turn it into a con-
nection with the Grand Trunk road in
Canada, but this has never been done
President Mellen admits that new
friendly traffic relations had been estab-
lished with the New Haven road and the
Central Vermont line. Relations have
not been close in years. He denied thai
there is any deal pending for the contro
of the Central Vermont by the New Ha-
ven.
One of the incidental features of the
proposed route Is the fact that by 1t:
new plans the New Haven road is to par,
allel the Boston & Albany branch of tho
New York Central from Boston to Palm
| er, practically all the way to Springfield
! 1t is naturally supposed that when the pro
| posed branch from Southbridge to Paine
| is built the gap from Palmer to Spring

TRAINMEN ARE KICKING.
Say Their Hours and Distances Of Their
Runs Are Increased Under Boston &
Names New Plan.

The Connecticut River division Of the
Boston and Maine railroad appears to be
buzzing like disturbed hornets nest
over "A proposed readjustmeut Of passen-
ger train runs which is announced TO go
into effect i'm "a few days. The men say
that there are marked increases OF dis
lance and time which various crews will
have to cover in a day and that the
doubling process, has gone so far that two
crews on the Connecticut River division
will not be needed. Moreover they say
that all jobs are open to choice by the
tranmen in order OF length of service.
and no one can tell what runs he will
have under the new arrangement or where
he will be required to live. For example
a trainman who has long lived in Spring
field and owns house there may find his
job taken by a trainman whose length of
service entities him to an earlier choice
and he may be forced to move to North
amptOn, or farther north. 4 tTainman
who has become settled in Northampton
may be obliged to move to Springfield and
so on. The trainmen recently secured an
advance in the wage schedule, which the
omcials of the road said would cost 500,
600, but the men now believe that the eX-
ira work which is proposed 10 put upon
them will make good this sum, and per-
haps yield a profit. Some of them say the
situation under increased pay and longer
hours VIII be much worse than the Tor
mer conditions, and they would prefer a
return to the old basis. Some of the
proposed assignments of runs are de-
scribed as KILLERS" and the men say that
the service and safety of the public as
well as the welfare of the trainmen, can
not fail to suffer from the proposed ar
rangement. The men Of the division I'M
derstand that similar attempt to make
up increase of pay by increase of work is
i'm progress throughout the Boston &
Maine system.
