RAILROADS IN GERMANY.
No Danger Of a Train Starting Until
Everything Is "Ready."


A returned traveller who spent much
Of his time IN Germany drifted into
the observation of %railroading in the
empire. He rode the most on local
trains, though not having a set pur-
pose. and proceeded only for short dis
tances.
On One of these yagrant trips he had
surrendered his ticket and had nothing
on his mind but his destination when
the conductor came and said:
Extra fare. please"
"Why?" demanded the experienced
voyager.
Because" answered the conductor,
I'VE have cut out five stops and the
train Is now an express"
The recollection of the writer runs
back to the time when as a small boy
he first beheld the start of a German
railroad train. The impression is self
evidently vivid to have lasted so long.
First there was a prodigous pow
WOW between the head -baggageman
and the porters. who argued excitedly
over the disposal Of trunks. Every
thing awaited the conclusion of their
labbering and the loading Of the car.
Nobody else seemed animated or even
concerned. The conductor looked on
stoically. and the engineer phlegmati-
cally talked to a b~ystander on the plat
form.
