ROAD WILL HEAR
 MEN COURTEOUSLY
BUT NEW HAVEN SYSTEM WILL OPPOSE THEIR PRESENT
 DEMANDS.

At the offices of the New York
 New Haven and Hartford railroad it it stated that next week a demand for increases in wages in varying amounts will probably be made by several of the labor organizations The representatives of those bodies will be met. courteously, it is stated, and in each demand the points raised will be carefully looked into. It is Tot believed. however. among the of- hcers of the company that there will be any important increases in wages unless accompanied by a correspond ing tncrvase m freight rates especial ly as only two or three years have gone by since there was an actual decrease in passenger rates to a uni- form rate of two cents mileage on the whole system including subsidiary lines. As regards the advance in wages the officers Of the company point out that there have been sev- cral advances and establishments of wages during the last few years; that during the panic year the company made no reductions of wages. all though it cut down the salaries of a number or oincerS for q period of several months: and that it refused to make any cut in wages during the panic year, notwithstanding it's earn ings fell to between two and three per cent below the dividend require ments.
 The negotiations to be opened by the labor organizations next week will probably be prolonged and the dis cussion is likely to cover every phase of the subject. including particularly the higher cost of living on the one hand and on the other the increased cost of equipment and railroad sup plies unaccompanied thus far by any increase in freight rates

Senator Cass Cou! 4Ye
 Man Mit1 Look
 Giant heads. bodies and brains were Webster and Cass-- AlI-the strength, of New Hampshire granite was concen- trated in those two sons. To look upon them made the ordinary man feel small Wonderful eyes they possessed, and men have been known to shiver with dread when one or the other nl- lowed his glance to fall upon shem Cass could look through a stranger h a way to make his brain burn and his knees knock together. One searching stare seemed to destroy all mentality and fill the victim with paralytic emo tions.
 No man dared take liberties with Cass. In 1S46 the proprietor of the National hotel in Washington was a man who so closely resembled the great senator from Michigan that he was often mistaken for him. An old friend, returning from a journey, en- tered the lobby and. seeing him lean ing against the desk, slipped up be hind and hit him a terrific whack on the shoulder. saying cheerily and si- multaneously: Hello, old mani Here I am back again. How are youT" Senator Cass straightened up his six feet three and. turning upon the assail- ant his terrible. bloodshot eyes, almost annihflated him with a look. Not a word was spoken That look was am pie. The stranger was so ''rattled" that he could not even apologize. but slunk dejectediy out of the hotel
 Later in the day when congress was supposed to be in session the stranger returned to the hotel to shake hands with the proprietor and tell him all about the Cass incident. Walking bravely up. he laid his hand down on his friends shoulder and. without wait ing for a greeting. surprised him with: See here. old fellow, you got me in a deuce of a scrape this morning Why, you. know, I took old Cass for you, slapped him on the back, nearly taking of a shoulder, and the old fool looked at me as if he wanted to com init murder. The darned old lunatic, why doesn't he stay out of here? He knows''- Again the great senator from Michigan. .straightened up his. six feet three, again he turned his blood. shot eyes. again he looked and again the victim fed.

 While journeying across the desert Mrs. A.

Incidentally he furnished an Illustration of the difference between necessities and luxuries.
 We were very grateful, says the writer, for coffee and an excellent lunch of sausage. potted meat and jam, with white bread, brought from Jerusalem. We ate our dainties with some sense of guilt. as the newcomer produced his lunch of dates and figs. z.
 Dates and figs, he informed us. were the natural food of desert wanderers. sufficing to the body, stimulating to the mind. The wheat. the flesh, above all the alcohol of civilization. were mere irrelevancies. Ss1,n-'i:-1 ,iii
 Was it not diet such as this-and he waved a pair of sensitive hands over his ascetic larder-which had enabled him to reply to the inquiry of a per sonage as to how many hours a day he could ride in the desert. Twenty four. your majesty. since a day does not contain twenty-five?'
 Was it not on diet of figs and dates that he had ridden sixty hours without dismounting? Was it your meat eater. your wine drinker. who remained sound and wholesome when necessity obliged him to refrain from. ablution for twenty-one- days? ---ssa-g 2.
 At this point he carefully counted his date stones. observed that two more were yet due to his appetite anC finished his frugal luncheon

Raising the Curtain For a Moment on

 A recent incident which holds in its simple outlines the possibility of past tragedy is described in the New York Times It is another illustration of how careless the world Is of the indf- vidual and how thick is the cloak which one may wrap about his per sonality- Not long ago a laborer em- ployed by the Erie railroad in Jersey City was run over by a train and had his leg cut off. e.
 A policeman telephoned for an ann bulance- The injured man lay on a grass patch, apparently bleeding to death. Just then a typical railroad tramp in dirty rags sauntered along. He tapped policeman's elbow.
 May l ask what's the matter, off, cer?" he inquired.
 Man bleeding to death." replied the policeman.
 Would you mind if I looked at him?" asked the tramp. -I might be of service"
 '-Go ahead" responded the officer.
 Bending low over the wounded la borer. the tramp asked for water to wash his hands and then begged the crowd for clean handkerchiefs. With half dozen delft, rapid twists he made a tourniquet and stopped tho flow of blood
 Are you a doctor?' some one asked as the man slipped away through the crowd.
