IT WAS A FINE COD.
A Little Story of William M. Chase, tho
 Portrait Painter.

Several years ago l had studio a. Hammersmith and was hurrying into London one morning to transact some business. Just as I swung around & corner occupied by fishmonger's s market my eye was attracted to a magnificent cod stretched out for ex- hibition on a clean slab of white mar ble Whatever my mood for color was that morning, that fish completely fit ted and filled it. I must paint 1t, de- cided.
 I called out the proprietor and told him what wanted. I was a bachelor, I explained. and did not want to buy the big fish. I only wished the use of it as model. Could rent 1t?
 "Ow, now, sir" he said, with true British stolidity. Hi never rents my fish. You see, it's Saturday, too, sir. HI must sell him today, sir"
 However, I explained that needed the fish for only a few hours, and di- rectly we struck bargain. If after two hours I still wished to keep the l stipulated time the boy came. I was not quite finished Tn few minutes" I said, and when I looked up he was gone
 Shortly afterward the proprietor came, tiptoeing fin and peeping over my shoulder. I could hear him softly signing, and I said nervously, Tn a few minutes now in q few minutes"
 Don't 'urry, sir; don't 'urry," be urged. She's gettin' on! Hill take my chances, sir"
 When the painting was finished he refused at first to accept any remu- neration, but at length. with nut tered apology, he charged-a shilling! The painting was hung and shortly afterward purchased by the Corcoran Art gallery for very substantial sum.
 On my next trip to London I deter mined to call up my fishmonger, tell him of the good fortune that had at tended the painting and tender him some fitting reward. To my great sur prise he not only refused again any sort of fee. but evinced no surprise whatever at the figure the painting had brought. though the price paid represented several times over the in- yestment of his shop.
 "Ah. but 1t was a fine cod. sir:"' he said, and his eyes glowed with pride. Now, wasn't it?'-William NJ. Chase in Delineator

 self to him regarding real estate. spoke to Hains first. I told him that
 1 would give up the race if he want
 ed to make deal. I soon realized
 that there was nothing in 1t for me 1 and 1 rOWed out my boat"

THE DUTCH WAY.

In Holland all railway locomotives are under the supervision 0f the gov ernment and, under the law, must be provided with an apparatus for the burning of smoke, and also With an apparatus to prevent, as far as posSl- ble, the emission of sparks and com bustible matter. Before a new type of locomotive is bought the railway company must furnish a drawing showing the details thereof to the supervising board of railways, which decides whether the new type is ac- ceptable; and for all locomotives purchased the company has to furnish the board with statement contain ing, among other things, descrlp- ton of the contrivance for the burn ing of smoke and of the contriVance to prevent the emission of sparks. Every locomotive has to be examined and approved by a government ln- spector before it can be placed Tn service. No locomotive would be ac- cepted which was not provided espe- cially with a contrivance for burning the smoke, and the burning by loco- motives and stationary furnaces or bituminous coal, which would emit clouds of black smoke, soot, and deleterious gases, to the menace or the public health, would be tolerated. The provincial and communal au- thorities are authorities to make and enforce regulations in reference to railways constructed on the public roads. The province of Zuid-Holland, for instance, has prescribed that only coke is to be used on locomotives.

MAY BE INSANE
Woman Beld oD Charge of KiIl' iDQ Six of Her Relatives
 For Insurance.

Cambridge. Mass, Dec 1S.-Alien- ists who spent several hours last night in examining Mrs Mary kelli- her, the SOmerville woman charged with arson and in whoEe famlly six deaths have taken place within the past three years, and on account of which she had collected several thou sand dollars of life insurance, were reticent to-day as to their opinion re- garding the woman's sanity. They could find no reason. however, why the authorities should rot continue their investigations into he deaths that have occurred in the kclleher family.
 District Attorney John J. Higgins, however, refused to issue an order for the dislnte"ment of the bodies pending further developments in the case.
 The alieni3ts admitted that Mr Kelleher talked ration2ily for some time during the examination and even appeared jovial occasionally. She refused to state how much money she had collected ill lnsur- ance' on the lives of her relatives and remarked: II know what they are up to; they want 10 get hold of my money.'
 Mrs Kelleher will be furJher eX. amined by the three alien!sts, who will report their finding to the dis. trict attorney.
 The specific charge against the wo- man is setting fire to the house of Andrew J. Lowell in Cambridge where she was employed

FOOTBALL BENEFITS RAILROAD. New Haven Co Carried 39.777 Pas
 sengers to Yale-Haryard Game.

The returns of tne New York, New Haven X Hartford Railroad Co for traffic and earnings from the Yale Harvard football game at New Haven last month show that the passengers carried were 39,777 as compared with Al ,454 passengers for the Yale Harvard game in New Haven two years ago. The revenue re- ceived from football passengers on the steam road was $71,299, as com- pared with $62,901 from the Yale Harvard game of 1906. The re- ceipts at the last game from football traffic alone were about $S,000 more than the amount received per day during the last fiscal year from pas senger traffic on the whole system of more than 2,000 miles.
 The passengers from Boston af last months game were 7,O4S as compared with 6,052 passengers two years ago, and the revenue on Boston passengers was $1S,931 as com pared with $15,76 in 1906. The New York passengers numbered l2,. 952 as compared with ,OS6 two years ago, corresponding figures for New York revenue being $19, ,42S as compared with $16,629 The great receipts this year in revenue are ascribed to the fact that so large a number of football tickets were taken by out of town parties. On the day of the football game the company ran into New Haven sixty-siX trains, carrying 5S4 cars and 21, ,215 passen- gers, and out of New Haven fifty five trains carrying 500 cars and somewhat over 10000 passengers. This army of passengers was han dled without accident.
