There were on the pay rolls of the railroads

1914 according to the figures of the Interstate
Commerce Commission. I,6o5,4S3 persons, de-
crease compared with the year before of 1896
Operating revenues for the fiscal year ended
June 80. 1914, were S3,o47,oIo.oos, and operating
expenses S2,aoo.3IaI5o. Operating revenues for
the fiscal year 1913 were $3I25,I357os. with oper-
ating expenses OF $a,I6o,o6So24-
These figures significant and carry no
comfort to the administration. In the first year
of Democratic rule 1926 employees of railroads
lost their jobs. The railroads earned $z8ooo,Qoo
less but paid $3r.ooo,ooo more in operating ex-
penscs, though they employed IIo756 less men.
1t must be remembered that all the figures
quoted refer to period before the outbreak of
the European war; that conflict had nothing to
do with this falling off in our commerce and
consequent loss of employment BY so many
workers. Perhaps the party now IN power win

" Rotten Paris" Helped Beat
johnson, Says Billy Sunday

Billy Sunday was amazed when he
heard Jess Willard had knocked out Jack
johnson. He laid the negroes defeat
chiefly to that hellish, Ubiquitous booze
that makes a mans brain a mud puddle y
Il bet you that rotten Paris had a
lot to do with 1t. A man can't hit tina,
rum-soaked, God-forsaken. devil-Ioving
trail without feeling it. johnson hit the
high spots. He went so fast there you
couldn't see his DUST" he said this after
noon.
Other members of Sundays encourage,
among them Jack Cardiff, the ex-prize-
fighter. and George Sunday scented a
frame-up. and Billy had his suspicious
along this line, too.
"Willards a square fighter and John
sons so crooked he hasn't slept straight
in bed for twenty years. said the stocky
little Cardiff. THE big smoke refereed
two fights / had. One was with Tim
Callahan, in Plymouth, Penn. 1t oughter
gone twenty rounds. I had Callahan's
ear almost torn Off and ! didn't have
a mark on me. But / couldn't win.
Johnson had been handed $1,000 and was
due a share of the gate money. He
wouldn't let me win, That niger s
strong. Every time he'd break us he'd
pinch the muscles in my neck, and 1
couldn't wear a collar for two days aft
erward."
In the morning Billy Sunday said John
son would lick the everlasting tar out
Of Willard. Fred Seibert, the taber-
nacle caretaker. who used to be bron-
cho buster before he joined Sundays
forces and wrote a hymn. Ride the
Gospel Locomotive and Jesus Pay the
Fare" was equally positive. Cardiff, who
fought 2s7 ring battles and now stoutly
declares III anybody knocks my Jesus
I'll bat his map on picked johnson
without question.
So the conversation on Sundays day
Off naturally conferred on the champion
ship fight at Havana. when Sunday was
seen at the House of Many Windows this
afternoon. 1t swung from that to Sun
days baseball career, and vcered at last
to New York City.
I'D like to go to New York" he said.
Reckon. though. they'd have to roof
over a place as big as block SO they
could hold 'em all. New York people are
full of pepperino and tobasco. They'd
get me in a hurry. City people are al

/ In the year \. ID. an income tax was
established in Rome on all incomes in
excess of $1,000.
The hobble skirt was one Of dame

These and many other interesting
facts going to show that life among the
ancients ways not so different from that
OF today were brought ont by Prof:
Camden NJ Cobcrn, explorer and arch
aeologist. who has just returned from
a trip to Palestine. He began a series
of lectures upon his archaeological dis
coveries today in the Arch Street Meth
odist Episcopal Church.
Prof. Cobern pointed out that the
Jews had three different systems of
shorthand reporting in the first century
and that in every Jewish court a short
hand reporter or clerk sat on each side
Of the judge. Many Of the Roman aris-
tocrats took "stenographers' with them
on their travels.
Other advantages enjoyed by the an
clients according to Prof Cobern. fol-
low:
In St Pauls time there were seventy
labor unions i'll Rome: hence struggle
between capital and labor must have
been waged even then.
There were several great monopolies
in the first century, the greatest OF all
being the oil business. The trust
dealt in olive oil and the like.
There also were monopolies in eggs.
perfumes, and bricks.
As to homes. Prof Cobern says he
has read in manuscripts dug from an
cient tomhs and houses of Roman who
spent the equivalent of sl2,coo.o00 upon
decorations for his house. Another plu
tocrat spent $4,000, 200 in one year. Nero
on one occasion spent sl75.O00 for roses
on his banquet tables The roses were
brought from Egypt.
