EDITORIAL NOTES.
HO, For Shiloh!

We call attention to the announce ment printed today of arrangements for the excursion to Shiloh, on May ', when the unveiling of the Alabama monument on that famous battlefield will take place. The occasion will be one of unusual interest, and no one should miss it who can possibly be present. Aside from the qualification that every loyal daughter of Alabama is entitled to feel at the successful ac- complishment of an object for which the women of the State have striven so long and so faithfully, the trip will be q delightful one over beautiful country full of historical associations. It is safe to say that The only regrets in connection with this trip will be on Ithe part of those who stay away.

The A. 3. S. Co. paid their employees
this week, and tho pay checks took the
form Of checks upon a Pueblo bank. They
were cashed in at the State Bank in con-
siderable numbers and the local bank paid
them in turn with cashiers checks. These
were rendered our local merchants for
goods, and they in turn issued checks in
making change. With those who have a
fairly intelligent understanding Of the
banking system the exchange process
worked all right, but with some others,
particularly our Mexican contingent, it
did not go SO well. They baked some
what and had to be showed Still
business pursues its even tenor in the

Famous Farce.

Before George w. Peck was elect
cd governor OF Wisconsin,, his high
est ambition seemed to be to make
other folks happy, which he largely
succeeded in doing, and never more
successfully than when fame's trum-
pet blew its cheericst note i'll an
nouncing the advent in print of his
Bad Boy" upon which the farce
comedy OF "Pcck's Bad Boy" which
comes to the Grand on Monday, Nov.
rs, is founded by exclusive permis-
sion of his authorization. There
have been, are, and ever will be thou
sands of just such bad boys as the
governor depicts, but their pen por-
traits were never drawn until he epit-
omized them in his humorous crea-
ton, the quintessence OF which has
been transferred to the play referred
to, and has amused the public to the
limit of hysterical hilarity for the
past twenty years, during which time
it has seen many puerile imitators
pass into the limbo of forgotten
fakes. This season the scope OF the
play has been broadened so as to ad-
nit OF the introduction of more of
the Bad Boys most telling and ludi-
crous practical jokes and escapades,
as well as of special feature novelties
bearing the stamp of genuine metro
politan attractions.

voritc emotional actress, Florence

have a wonderful scope for her un-
usual and remarkable abilities rs an
emotional actress.
The play deals with the efforts Of
a young woman to regain her place IN
the world. which she has lost through
being trickca into false marriage
by scoundrcl already married. To
regain her lost position. she steps in.
to the place and adopts the name OF
a woman supposed to be dead.
The crisis comes when this wo-
man returns and claims her own
from the usurpcr. 1t leads up to 4
scene in which are portrayed one OF
the most remarkable hcart-rcnding
ducls OF emotion ever seen on the
stage. II is a situation that demands
dcft, fine, and restrained acting, cold
hatred, and passionate rigidity, and
which clcctrifies the audience by 4
subsequent moment of contrition. In

Roberts is said to be at her best. She
has been surrounded by strong sup

PAY ON THE TONNAGE
Proposed Reductions Mean
Millions TO Railroads.
an AssoeIated Press.l

Chicago. H., Feb. l5.-The reweigh.
ing of the mails. which takes place
every four years to determine the
amounts TO be paid by the government
TO the railroads. was begun today in
the sixth district and portion of the
seventh district The sixth district
comprises all of the territory east OF
the Missouri river M to a line drawn
through Chicago and ST. Louis.
Five hundred men are engaged in
the work Of reweighing. Theltask will
occupy about 113 days. during which
tune all of the mails which are put on
and all which are taken off of all
established routes. will be carefully
weighed. Out OF the reweighing period
there will be a total OF ninety work
each route for the entire reweighing
period win be divided by ninety. the
working DAYS, in order to determine
the average tonnage carried per day
Upon this tonnage SO determined
the pay is scaled and when fixed Will
remain the rate which the railroads
shall receive until She mails are re-
weighed four years hence.
The railroad managements are con-
siderably exercised over the probabil-
ity OF a decrease in the rate owing to
the recent recommendation OF the con.
gressional committee. The minimum
pay Is for goo pounds or less. for
which s4275 is allowed at present for
carrying it one mile everyday in the
year The pay is on descending
scale as the average weight increases
until 5000 pounds or more daily $21.30
per ton is allowed.
BY the recommendation of the con-
gressional committee there will be a
5 per cent decrease in the pay for
routes carrying fpom 5000 pounds
daily 10 $4,000 pounds. which would
reduce the pay on this kind of a houte
from $2130 to SIS. On routes carry
ing an average of between $4,000 and
10000 pounds there will be a decrease
OF 10 per cent
The proposed reductions in the rate
would decrease the revenue on a sim
gle railroad route between Chicago
and the Missouri river about $4,000
annually. The total reduction on some
of the large railroad systems would
amount to several hundred thousand
dollars a year, The railroad officials
declare that they cannot stand the re
duction, aud that II the recommenda-
ton becomes a law there is bound to
be a corresponding reduction in the
service.
