The output has been retained The
newspapers of the country in their
columns seem to point out every
thing in the news line pertaining to
the formal on of trusts In oil, sugar,
paper, coal, steel and almost every
commodity in general use, but they
entirely overlook the fact that they
could and should point with great
interest to the fact that newspapers
are supplying the public with the
news of the world under a greater
expense of product, n than at any
time previous while the comparative
cost of advertising has not Teen
greatly increased.
The newspapers have been in the
front rank in the development of
American civilization and today they
give more to the purchaser for the
investment than it is possible to re-
ceive in any other channe! of ex
penditure Any thoughtful person,
who will carefully consider the in
creased publication cost of newspa-
pers and the vast amount of infor-
nation and pleasure the people de-
rive from them at old time prices,
will agree with US that the postage

There Is no rural spot in England
more visited by Americans than Broad
way. a charming Old World village sit
uated at the extreme southeast corner
of Worcestershire, says an exchange
It's picturesque houses seem to have
more affinity with Gloucestershire than
with their own county, being mostly
built with the soft, yellow Gloucester
shire stone which hardens with ex-
posure and tones down into all sorts
of subtle and beautiful tints, besides
having a happy knack Of attracting to
itself variety of delicate ltchens.
This Is where Edwin A. Abbey used
to live, and where F. D. Millet, another
famous American artist, lives now. The
house dates from the 14th century and
was built to be the manor house of
the Abbots Of Pershore, who were very
great men indeed, possessing vast rev.
erues and having seats in Parliament,
for Pershore was a mitred abbey. and
seat in Parliament was one Of the
privileges of its abbots. There is still
the quaint little medieval chapel, with
kind of hagioscope In the west wall,
by means of which those sitting in the
great hall could assist at Mass.
Halfway up the street are two spe-
,, cially interesting old houses, one call
ed the Prior's Manse, which, like Mil.
let's home. once belonged to Pershore
abbey. and the other, the Lygon Arms,

Engineering Feat
is ExEMPLIFiED IN 3. & O.. CLASS.
LEGATION FREIGHT YARD AT
BRUNSWICK, MD.

Yesterday the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad put into operation It's new
classification freight yard at Bruins
WICK. Md, on the main line of the
road, about so miles west of Balti-
more. This announcement was made
by Mr.. Thomas Fitzgerald, general
manager. This will inaugurate a new
record in the engineering world for
quick terminal construction, and II will
also mark the opening OF the largest
Individual freight terminal In the coun-
try. The actual work OF building this
new yard. which is az miles long, has
capacity OF 1850 cars and extends
from Knoxville, on the west, tot East
Brunswick, where It connects with the
old yard, was begun In September of
last year and completed about the mid.
die OF October. The present yard at
Brunswick is az miles long and has
a capacity of $500 cars. mastng the
total length of the terminal six miles,
with a capacity of 6,460 cars.
The present yard at Brunswick was
put In operation in 1891. Brunswick
has always been the classification
point for both eastbound and west.
bound freight, but the roads steady
increase In traffic made It necessary
to enlarge the yard facilities at this
point to more than double It's capacity,
and at an expense Of about 81 ,O0O, 900.
The new yard will be used entirely for
the classification and handling Of east
bound freight. the old yard being used
for westbound traffic. The yard Is the
latest design and ap-to-date In every
particular and reflects great credit on
the skill and ingenuity OF D. D. Car.
others, chief engineer; A. NJ. Knisman,
engineer Of construction, and J. T.
Wilson, assistant engineer. these three
having direct charge OF the work. The
contractors employed were F. H.
Clements & Co., Of Philadelphia. Sew.
eral innovations were established In
the building Of this yard and there are
a number Of sub-yaris which make up
the general terminal Improvement.
