cars for distribution at the points

MORGAN srorrED A TRAIN.
F1agged Freight TO Help Bishop
Keep Engagement.


Bishop Potter was spending a
Sunday afternoon with J. p. Nor
gan, at the latter's country place, at
Highland Falls. The village of
Highland Falls is n way station on
the West Shore road a few miles be-
low West Point, and the fast trains
pass it by without a stop on their
first long jump away from New
York. This is not matter of much
concern to the financier, who al
ways goes back and fourth on his
yacht; but on this occasion, says
the Metropolitan Magazine, 1t trou-
bled the Bishop. He was loath to
travel on Sunday, but he had an
important engagement to keep in
the city that night, and he remarked
that he would have to take a local
train, which left a little while be-
fore supper.
"Oh, no." said Morgan, there's a
train after that one. OF course,
you'll stay to super"
Il don't see any train" objected
the Bishop, and | really must get
to town in time to conduct an even
ing service"
There's an express" replied his
host. disposing of the materials
losing OF the matter-"I1l have it
stopped for you"
An hour or so later. in the thick
darkness of an autumn evening. Mr..
Morgan took the Bishop in his car
rl&ge down the steep road TO the
railroad station. No lights shown
from the building. The coachman
got out and tried the door and rat
tied it. Then he came back and re-
ported that the agent had gone
home for the night.
The sound of the approaching train
was heard, family. but growing
louder.
Break in the door," ordered Nor
gan impatiently-get a big stone
and flash it," He and his visitor
got out of the carriage and looked
on; finally the door gave way. Nor
gan went inside, and after scratch
ing number of matches, found a
lantern and lit it. "All right, Dish-
op!" he called cheerfully, come
ahead and he walked out to the
middle of the track and waven the
light.
With horrid screeching and
squeaking the train stopped. 1t was
a freighter; a very long freight.
Out of the cab leaned the surprised
engineer, and from the caboose
somewhere in the faraway darkness
the conductor came running up, very
angry.
What do you mean by stopping
this train" he demanded fierc.ly.
Mr.. Morgan, still holding the lam
tern, told him who he was.
Il don't care who you are, you've
got no business-why." he choked.
there's an express train following
us-you'll have a collision" But
Mr.. Morgan paid no more attention

Fate of PortuqaI,s Homer.

"The Lusiadr is one of the noblest
records ever written of national glory
and success. Camoens, its gifted au-
thor. determined to do for Portugal
what Homer had done for Greece. The
great poem was written in the six
teenth century. which has been called
the heroic age of Portugal. and its
main feature is the rounding of the
Cape of Good Hope by Vasco da CANA,
while a most interesting episode is
the browning after death Of IneZ de
Castro as queen of Portugal. 'The
Lusiad" took it's name from Lusius.
who was said to have founded Lisbon.
Its author was born about 1920. and
his career. which began brilliantly,
was blighted by the death of a broken
heart of the lady of his love, for whose
sake he was banished from the land.
He wrote ''The Lusiad' in his Danish
ment and was recalled in 1911, losing
on the way all his property except his
poem. Pensioned ut first by the king,
this great epic poet of Portugal died
in great poverty in 1910, when his
patron was also dead

zation in Wisconsin he is not the. man
that the senior senator would have
succeed Mr. Stephenson in case the

the choice of the state officers hera

wishes of Bob"
That is exactly where the shoe
pinches Mr. McGoyern is at the helm
in this state. He has a strong fol-
lowing and he has wonderful execu
tive ability to organize, to direct and
to lead. He is ambitious and has his
heart set upon becoming a, United
States senator Senator La Toilette
is not accustomed to having such Il
pronounced type in his camp. Invar-
iably his lieutenants are content to
fall in line with his general views.
If the senior senator insists upon the
governor following that course and IL
Mr. McGovern decides otherwise, the
issue will be La Toilette VS.. McGovern,
and such contest would mean the
control of the party organization.
The bribery charges against Sena-
tor Stephenson most certainly will
reach the national body. The pre-
gressive Republicans have control Of
the Wisconsin legislature, and the
findings of the senatorial investigat-
ing committee will be certified to and

but the public speaking will be left
to others. Many matters of large i'm
