VICTIM OF HIS OWN JOKE
Senator Had Not Intended Jocose Re.
mark to Be Taken as Seriously
as II Was.

An official of the house Of repre-
sentatives met a distinguished United
States senator In the halls Of the cap
itol. They were old friends, and both
were born in Kentucky. 1t was at a
time when there was not much stirring
about the big building, and the two sat
down to talk. The conversation turned
on what the doctors Of America were
doing, and discussion Of specialists.
The official suggested that he had a
relative who was distinguished alien.

"There would seem to be good field
for work along his line right here In
the capitol" remarked the senator. Il
know some members of the house and
senate whom he might examine"
"Well, I expect him in Washington
very shortly" returned the official, In
all innocence, "and ] want him to meet
you"
It was not until several seconds later
when the senator laughed that the Of
fetal realized that an explanation was
in order.

OPERATED BY 1HAY-BURNERS"
Motive Power Of One Of the Civil War
Railroads Was Primitive In
the Extreme.

The history Of railway operation In
this country offers many curious and
interesting details. Among them none
are stranger than those that concern
the Memphis, lei Paso & Pacific rail-
road, 40-mile line operated between
Marshall, Tex, and Shreveport, La.
during the Civil war.
The owner was John Higginson. He
had many titles: chairman of the
board. president, vice president, SUI
perintendent, trainmaster, roadmaster,
freight and passenger agent, fireman,
conductor and master mechanic. The
motive power was Of the best In those
days, and consisted Of several yoke of
oxen, commonly known as "hay-burn-
ers." The oxen were, 1t is said, gen.
orally on time.
Mr.. HigginsOn ran his train on tri-
weekly schedule. When he had gath
cred up "cargo" and everything was
ready for the trip he loaded the oxen
into the first box car in the train. In
the next car he had put the freight and
the passengers, and in the third he
himself rode, The cars started down
the steep grade out Of Marshall and,
after they had rolled as far as they
would Mr.. Higginson set the brakes
and proceeded to unload the oxen and
hitch them to the coupling Of the car.
Then he released the brakes and start
ed the train up the grade. At the top
the oxen were again loaded into their
car and another start was made down.
hill. By repeating this operation sew
eral times Mr.. HigginsOn an6his train
would finally reach Shreveport.
The passenger rate was 25 cents a
person. Freight charges were any
thing the owner Of the line could get.
Since there was no competition. Mr..
Higginson made money. All freight
was marked "red ball" and handled
as soon as received.
This, however was not the first
'hay-burning" railway In the United
States. Most of the early lines made
use of animals. The Baltimore & Ohio
at one time employed horses to haul
freight and passenger trains over the
first Is miles of track constructed

Superstition Concerning Moon.

That the moon can make people
mad is still a prevalent belief, and
even most Of those who pride them
selves on being free from oil supersti-
ton would hesitate to lie where the
moon can shine upon them while they
sleep. For would they not run the
risk of being moon struckT Does
not Othello in the agony Of his soul
exclaim:
IT'S the very error Of the moon,
She comes more near the earth than she
was wont,
And makes men mad.
Science ridicules all Of this today,
pointing out that the moon can send us
nothing but her light, which Is only Q
feeble reflection of that Of the sun, and
the attraction Of her gravity, which
seems to affect the rise and fall Of the
tides.

Wanted officers to Learn Dancing.

That the great Lord Nelson urged
his mldshipmen to learn dancing has
been discovered through the publica-
ton of letter written by the hero
of Trafalgar to the earl Of Cork. Cap
tain Nelson as he then was wrote: 1T
1t necessary that your son should be
made complete in his navigation, and
II the peace continues, French Is abso-
lutely necessary. Dancing Is an ac-
complishment that probably a sea Of
ficer may require. You will see almost
the necessity of 1t, when employed In
foreign countries; indeed, the honor OF
the nation Is so often entrusted to sea
officers that there is no accomplish
ment which will not shine with Pc
culiar luster In them"

Early intoxicating Liquors.

Pliny says: "The natives who In
habit the west of Europe have liquid
with which they intoxicate themselves,
made from corn and water. The man
ner of making this liquid differs. In
Gaul and Spain and other countries 1t
is called by different names, but its
nature and properties are everywhere
the same.
"The people of Spain In particular
brew this liquid SO well that 1t Will
keep long time. So exquisite Is the
cunning of mankind in gratifying their
vicious appetites that they have thus
invented method to make water itself
produce intoxicati0n."
