The Tramp and the Railroad.


We have the idea that our American
railroads kill many passengers. Yet
almost ten trespassers are killed to
every passenger killed. We believe
that the trainman takes his life in his
hands; yet more than twice as many
trespassers annually sustain fatal ac-
cidents, says Orlando +. Lewis In the
Atlantic. When we read that in five
years 23,974 trespassers we're killed by
railroads, and 1926 trespassers in.
jured. we wonder that there should be
left living n single Jack the Hobo to
wash his shirt. In these five years
there were more trespassers killed
than there are inhabitants in Bangor
Me, OF Burlington, Vt. Were this
army of the dead lying but three feet
apart along the trackside in CHASTITY
regularity, they would stretch out for
nearly IA miles. AT brisk walk. II
would take four hours to reach the
those reported Injured in the last five
years lying but three feet apart, We
should be obliged to walk for more
than four hours more. before we
reached the end Of this second line.
The Baltimore & Ohio representative
said that many railroads maintain pri-
vate tramp graveyards." in which are
buried many OF the unknown dead,
without inquest and with expedition.
Question:; How many city graveyards
could be annually filled-with the unre-
corded, unreported vagrant dead?

In book Ernest Daudet has Just
written about Joseph de Maistre ana
Comte Blacas he relates an amusinc
story of an occurrence which hap
pened at the court of the Empress
Maria Theresa.
When the Chevalier de Iron, am
bassador of the Venetian republic &c
the Austrian court, presented himself
for his farewell audience he expressed
his deep regret at leaving Austria aft
er so many years without having once
beheld its precious sovereign. Tre
empress was astonished and asked
what he meant The ambassador ther
explained that he was very short
sighted and had been debarred by eti
quette from raising his eyeglass in the
sovereign's presence.
IF that Is all, grant you the privi
lege with pleasure" said Maria The
resa. laughing.
Thereupon De Iron stepped back,
raised his lorgnette and with the mieD
of connoisseur inspected the beauti
full empress slowly from head to foot
muttering meanwhile very audibly
Handsome. pardieu! She is hand
some!"
The empress. so the chronicler says,
laughed till the tears ran down heI
face.

The unfounded report that the
ameer of Afghanistan had been as
sassinated by his tribesmen probably
grew out Of the fact that the ameer is
unpopular with some of the Moslem
tribes over whom he tries to rule.
This unpopularity grows chiefly out OF
his fondness for European fashions In
the matter Of dress. For example, he
frequently wears a plug hat on state
occasions. and that sort Of headgear
is an abomination unto the tribesmen.
When the Afghans say their prayers
they must do so with bare feet and
with their heads covered, and their
foreheads must touch the ground. The
brim OF the plug hat, as well as the
crown, interferes with this attitude OF
devotion. Hence the ameer's seem.

sible from the ordinary. You get tired
of seeing a great many houses in one
neighborhood all topped with the same
style OF roof. A roof means a good
deal, both in appearance and comfort
A steep roof like this will dry imme-
diately after shower, while a roof
built on lower pitch will remain wet
for hours, sometimes days at a time,
during rainy season. and this has a
great deal to do with the staying quail
tiles of shingles. Another advantage
of steep roof is the room you get
for closets where the ceiling would be
too low for any other purpose.
The down stairs of this plan is ex.
ceptionally good. To commence with
there is vestibule that Is large
enough to hold overcoats, hats, rub
bers, umbrellas and such truck that
is very much in the way in a room
that Is used for any other purpose.
Then. as you leave the vestiblle you
enter very light, pleasant reception
hall that is just right for a music
room. You place the piano in the
bow window where you have light on
both sides. The windows are placed
high enough to let the light In over
the piano in the center and over a
music rack at the left hand side and
lamp table at the right. An ar
rangement of this kind not only makes
good use Of reception hall but it re-
lieves the living room of an en-.
cumbrance.

1t is generally agreed by scientists and
suffragettes alike that man is descended
from Simian ancestors. And he is still
descending. He is no longer monarch of
all he surveys. His scepter begins to trem-
bic in his shaky hand. His crown is slip
ing from his nodding head. His throne
is tottering to its fall. He is on the down
grade, and makes pathetic efforts to appear
ignorant of his approaching doom. If he
would chly own up that he is slipping
down, there might be some hope for him.
But now that he can no longer so easily
deceive the softer sex, he revels in self-de-
