ECCENTRIC Betting.
Curious Wassrs Recorded at Whits's
Club In London.

Curious Wassrs Recorded at Whites
Club In London.
The betting book Of Whites club In
London contains the record OF some
extraordinary 'wagers. The Idle gen.
tlemen of 100 years ago could give
their successors of today sundry hints
on eccentric betting. Here are fac
SMILES of some of the records. One
reads:
''Mr. Methuen bets Colonel Stanhope
10 guineas to- that worthy bar
onet-understood between them-does
not from necessity part with his gold
fee pals before this day twelvemonth.
The ice pals being found at pawn
brokers' will not entitle Colonel Stan
hope to receive his 10 guineas."
This peculiar wager was made in
1913, and another one. recorded the
same year at Whites. may have ref
erence to the same hard up parsonage.
It reads:
Lord Alvanley bets Sir Joseph Cop.
ley guineas that certain baronet
understood between them-is very
much embarrassed in circumstances.
In three years from the date hereof,
II one Of his bills is dishonored or he
is observed to borrow small change Of
the chairmen or walters, Sir Joseph is
to be reckoned to lose"
Here is AN odd one: mfr. Butler
bets Sir George Talbot 20 guineas
to / that he is not in the room at
Whites with Napoleon in the course
Of the next two years-April "a. 1915"
History shows that Mr.. Butler won

Another manner in which telephone
companies frequently attempt to

salaries to employees and in this re-

operators, and other employees, who
are constantly meeting the public,
such as managers, cashiers, etc., the

GOOD and BAD
IN RAILROADS
Expert Criticises and
Praises
THE AMERICAN RY. SYSTEMS
CHIEF CRITICISM is FACT OF
81 ROADS HAVING HEADoUART-
ERs THOUSANDS OF MILES
FROM PEOPLE THEY SERVE
MOST ECONOMICAL IN WORLD.

New York, Feb. both criticism
and praise of American railways are
embodied in statement made by w.
M. Acworth, the English railway
economist on the eve of his departure
today for England.
Acworth has been making a study of
American railroads during the last
two months incidentally testifying be-
fore the various commissions. He
has made several previous examina-
tions of American railroads, at in
tervals of two or three years. The
principal defect that Acworth mentions
of American railway management lies
in the Capitalization of administra-
tive power in the headquarters in
offices in Chicago and New York,
which while tending doubtless to eff
cheney and economy are responsible
in some degree for the present strain
ed relations between the railways and
public"
Matters that arise in Kansas. in
Texas, in the far south, in the far
west and need prompt adjustment have
to be referred, Acworth points. to Off
GERS 1000 or 1000 miles away and the
citizen thinks he is dealing with a
machine.
In actual economy of operation Ae-
worth thinks the American railroads
are the first in the world and he ex-
presses surprise, at the space given
by newspapers to criticism of railroa n
efficiency.
