BROTHERS DREAM RAILROAD SYSTEM

WASHINGTON, April 8, P)- Practical absorption of the Pere Marquette Railroad by the Ches- apeake & Ohio was foreshadowed by the decision of the interstate commerce commission which per- mits the Chesapeake & Ohio to purchase TABOO shares of the Pere Marquette stock at $133.33 per share.
 Thus, long step was taken to- ward realization of the dream of the Van Sweringen brothers for railroad system built around the Nickle Plate and Chesapeake lines.
 While the purchase of this this block of stock does not give them control it is believed that they will soon acquire, or already have bought through subsidiaries, sufficient stock to bring the road under their operation.

Happy Jack, Mrs Happy Jack and four
half-gTown children. Robbers mean
little eyes glared at the happy family.
1t was one thing to frighten one Squirrel
away. but 1t was altogether another
matter to try to put SIX Squirrels to
fight.
thought Robber. "Of course, can't
fight all of them at one time, but II I
can surprise them, / may be able to
frighten them SO that they will run
away. IT is worth trying anyway"
Robber crept out of his hole. Care
fully, so as to make no sound he crept
up on the old stone wall. Happy Jack
and his family were so busy that they
were paying no attention to anything
but their breakfast Nearer and nearer
crept Robber. When he was near enough
he rushed. His lips were drawn back,
showing his sharp teeth. The hair along
his back was on end, making him look
q savage sounding squeal, he jumped
right into the middle Of that breakfast
party.
That breakfast party broke up in q
hurry. Yes, sir, that breakfast party
broke up In hurry. There was o rush
for the nearest tree. Up into 1t scram-
bled the four young Squirrels, with
Happy Jack and Mrs. Happy Jack right
at their heels. Not until they were
well up In the tree did they turn to
ind out who had frightened them.
Then such . chattering as broke loose.
How those Squirrels did scold
"Robberl Robberl Robberi" shrieked
Happy Jack.
Thief Thief Thief" cried Mrs.
Happy Jack.
Robber the Rat merely grinned and
continued TO stun himself. He was used
TO being called names. Names don't
hurt, thought he. Its teeth and claws
that hurt. As long as those Squirrels
want to fight with their tongues. Ill
be satisfied"
He turned his back on the tree where
Happy Jack and his family were and
gobbled up the food as fast as he could.
Meanwhile Happy Jack and his fam
ily were making such q racket that
Fermer Browns Boy came out to see
what the trouble was about. Robber
the Rat heard the door open and at
once ran for his hole. Farmer Browns
Boy saw him, however, and at once
ne understood what all the fuss was
about. Tomorrow morning" thOuRht
ne, Il shall have to watch to see what
happens" ~

wouldn't be any different If he could.
Robber knew that Farmer Browns
Boy put that food on certain big fiat
stone in the old stone wall Just for
Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel and his
family. 1t really belonged to the Squir-
rels, but this made no difference to Rob-
Der. Having frightened Happy Jack
away once, he was sure that he could
do It again. So he planned to have
those breakfasts all for himself.
The morning following the one on
which he had driven Happy Jack away.
Robber was . little late. He had been
out all night on dark business Of some
kind and he had curled UP for q wink

WAsHINGToN's BIRTHDAY.

Washngton's t97th birthday is being observed largely by public meetings and other celebrations where the principal themes reports of progress plans for celebrating, and making further plans for the great double century anniversary that will occur in 1892. Many programs under way for hat occasion and many more will be developed before the event Already the most celebrated and monlnented American, every year finds more memorials statues and ether tokens of the love and esteem in which Americans. and all civilized people for that sattet hold the great patriot under whose leadership Americans gained their independence and established the Constitution under which the country has de veloped
 Washington was one of the moss remarkable of history's heroes For about 15O years now his birthday has been celebrated by grateful people on account Of his services to democracy, and every year finds the celebration wide spread and intensive than the year before. That is because yearly it becomes more evident that he struck the most effective blow that any one ever delivered monarchcal institutions. Which is another way of saving that his services to popular government have been of more practical beneft than those of any one else. Of course his great service was the determined and cour- aeeous leadership that made America republic. The development of this country under repub= licanisn' into the richest and most powerful na- lion of ali time did the rest It the example of the United states that caused the severance of ties between Latin American countries and Old World monarchies It the same example that made successful the struggles for popular government from time to time here and there throughout the world
 But the most remarkable thing about Wash ington the thing that has caused the greatest amount or investigation and speculation, is the question of how he of all became radical
 "a conservative radical. it is true, but radical nevertheless Washington the richest man in America He came of gentle stock. His people were ol the landed gentry in England. They had furnished knights and peers to the British ars tocracy After translation 10 Virginia, they what Woodward calls of the Very Best People" George Washington was one of the most petted of Virginians. He was stanch believer in prop erty rights and the leadership of the aristocraey
