Tho reason ] am not SO troubled is

WHEN TRAVEL WAS NO JOKE.
People OF Today Would shudder
the Hardships of Years Aeo.

People Of Today Would Shudder at
the Hardshtps of Years Ago.
Travelling i'll the thirties OF tho last
century, even in the more thicwy set
tied states of the Union and with the
most advanced forms of tranerorta-
ton at the Travellers command. was
N:, something to face with all the
tortitude that could he drummed up.
h Philadelphia Record gtves a
glimpse of what that travelling was
like:
. November IS. 1898. a cor made
the first trip over the Portage rail
road. This was the most remarkable
engineering undertaking OF the times.
The railroad was 3S miles long. ex-
tending across the Allegheny noun
tsins from H~ollidayshurg to John
stowp. There were ten inclined planes,
five on each side of the mountains.
Engines at the top of each plane pull
ed up four cars at a time. The ascent
ON the east side measured 1898 feet.
Then there was q. tunnel Of $50 feet
and a descent of 1.172 feet on the
western side. Passengers on canal
boats entered the cars at Holidays
hurg. ennbarking in other boats on
the western ! and thus continuing
boststheir journey to PittsburK. Lat
er boats We're built SO that they could
be taken apart into three or tour
sections and placed on a car for the
trip over h mountains"
Folk who quarrel Owe the lateness
of a train might feel better If they
! reminded themselves of what a boon
their own helated transportation
would have been of their grandpar-
ents.

Here is a coat that combines the
Russian belt idea with the japanese
sleeves and the combination makes
one of the snartest garments to be
found. incidentally. it also is one Of
the easiest to make. There are few
seams and there is no fitting, for such
garments are loose and it is only nec-
essary to keep the lines correct to as
sure success. The blouse is made all
in n piece and the separate peplum
is Joined to it beneath the belt. Such
q coat will be extremely smart
throughout the entire spring and APP
.propriately a be made to match the
skirt or OF contrasting material, for
combination costumes will he greatly

plain. plain will be worn over striped
fabrics and many similar effects will
be noted.

 Houston, Tex, March s6--Bal play CTS like hot weather on a training trip. The Yankees basked in the sun shine yesterday.
 It was a. magnificent day to work the pitchers. ManaEer Chase called all of the twir1ers together and told them to make the best Of tf1e hot sun, but not to take too much liberty with their arms.
 Roy HaTtze1I is showing good form oh the second corner, and there is no that sack Chance would like to use Roy as f1s atdMty man, and no doubt HartzelI will get that assignment be- fore the season has gone very far. as the New York club has a. line out for a. second baseTnan-vVsh0 is very pronad- nent in the American League.
 Manager Chance announced that he had refused to waive on John Hum mel of Brooklyn and Mccarthy of the Pittsburgh Club. Chance would Like to play Mccarthy at second base. and he is of the opinion that H1lmnel would be a handy man to have around The Yankee manager thinks that Ed Sweeney wdM sign a New York con tract in the near future. He hopes to have the big catcher at the trainirs camp. in a few days.
 Jack Warhop, the httB pitcher, is the only other member Of the team who has not signed his contract He is showing no signs of a. bad arn1 and the chances are that he will be signed if he proves that his wing is rdghi again He came to the training caInr for the purpose of showing the man ager that he would be able to pitch winning ball.

OLD DETROIT STARS
 HAVE DRIFTED AWAY

Gulfport, Miss, March 6.-Where are adla those Tigers of 19O7-those batting, base running Tigers, who cap tured the American league pennant that year Look at the Tigers who are in training here to-day Not one of them was with that bunch six years ago. No. you could go out to the1 training camp to-day and not a vest1ge of that famous old team would you find. Your q miss the pep, too. that was usual thing each spring with the boys that were with Hughey3 Jennings that year
 You might go out thinking you d see Ty Cobb or Crawford, but To |. neither of them is there. Cobb isn't lost to Detroit. but Tyrus takes his time about sending in his contract. Likewise Crawford is taking hisA time in signing up. But, anyway you look at it, the Detroit aggregation this spring makes you ask: Where do they drift to 2,
 well, there's Wild Bill Donovan managing Providence in the Interna- tiona1 league. Tom Jones is with Milwaukee; Herman Schaefer plays with the Senators; Jimmie Archer, old Jimmie, who couldn't bat hard enough for the Tigers, is with the Cubs; Charlie OIeary is out on the coast and Claude Rossman is in the west. Ed KiIlian and Sieyer have both quit the game and then you find the rest of the old team scattered far and wide
 Davy Jones, Ed Wil1ett, George Null len are all Feds now, and that leaves only Jerry Downs and John Eubanks. Jerry is in the Coast league. But Eubanks is out of sight altogether.
 Jennings won't have that old crowd | to work with to mould into a tribe Of dangerous s1uggers. Mo- he'll only have Cobb and Crawford to remind him of the halcyon days gone by.
