Tlppina . Lord.

A day or two ago gave a story
about the late Lord Tweedmouth, who
once received half crown as tip
from an American lady whom he had
shown over the houses Of parliament.
"CuriouslY enough writes one of
your readers, II have just happened
on the following in Hawthorne's Our
Old Home, which occurs in the chap
ter describing his visit to Shake
speare's birthplace.
!" In fact. nobody need fear to hold
out half crown to any person with
whom he has occasion to speak q
word In England
Possibly the American lady who
tipped Lord Tweedmouth may have
read the above sentence and taken 1t
seriously London News.

CHARGED WITH SELLING
ADULTERATED MILK,
Three arrested, But One Escaped as
Officer Was Bringing Prisoners to
Town

Yesterday afternoon Officer Ire
vino arrested Lazaro Cara, Tomas
Alvarez and an American whose
name could not be learned on a
charge of selling adulterated milk in
the city. The arrests were made on
North st. Charles street and the Of
ficer started to town with his prison
er walking in front of him, taking
them to the City Hall All went
well until within about a couple of
blocks of the market house, when
the American, who was leading the
procession, suddenly took to his
heels, turning a corner, and made
his escape. Although the officers
have been unable to obtain the name
of the man in question, they have a
good description of him and he WIN
be arrested the first time he comes
to town. The two Mexicans were
released on bond pending a trial be-
fore the mayor
The milk which was seized from
the three men by the officer was
tested at the market house by Chief
of Police Crixell and it was found
about two thirds of it was water.

ENORMOUS DEMAND
FOR PULLMAN CARS.
Many Steel Freight Cars and Street
Railway Equipment Also Ordered,
Says Pullman Manager.

An interesting bit of information
bearing upon the condition of the
railroads in this country was given by
H. B. Williams of Pullman, H., who
who returned last night from short
hunting trip to Point Isabel. Mr..
Williams is connected with the sales
department of the Pullman Car Co.
The company, he says, has more
orders in hand today than it can
possibly fill; in fact its entire ca
pacity for the next two years is al
ready booked. These orders are not
only for the so-called Pullman"
of various kinds, but also for street
railway and freight cars, large ord
er for all-steel freight cars having
been received lately.
A recent law passed in Pennsylva-
MIA forbids the use of any but fire
proof sleepers To comply with the
provisions of this law, the Pullman
Co. will be compelled to build 430
new sleepers to replace those now
in use which at an average cost of
$50, 900, will represent an outlay
of about $4,000
Mr.. Williams was greatly pleased
with his first trip to Point Isabel
In former years he has hunted
around Port Lavaca, but came down
here this fall on the advice of some
friends and is glad he did So He
left for the North yesterday.
