taken into shallow water by the old

becn purchased for the use of the men
employed on the boat.

The interior of the house boat is tin-
iahed In southern pine and divided into
two apartments, the first room one en-‘
ters upon going aboard is used for ii
living and sleeping room. This is lit-
led with a stove, table and col beds,

and the commissioners now have over

We often hear some people say.

They would not care a snap

If Iill the, work shops in the land.
Should never do another tap.

They say they. are sick iilld tired of

its everlasting grind,

And would do almost any way,

To leave the thing behind. .

But we note that when the morning
comes

They are anxious for to go,

And always get a. hustle on

When they hear the whistle blow.

To all of those we then would say:

That the factory has no charm.

Go brick in some old country town.
And work upon a farm.

For many a vacant one. there are.
That once was tilled and sown.

But now for lack of husbandy
To weeds and bushes grown.

Of which the farmer once was proud
To cultivate with care.

SOME CHANGES 0N CONSOLIDAT-

Fancy Striping of Locomotives Will Be
Abolished and Plain Black Used.
(New Haven Union.)

It has been decreed that all the
fancy yellow stripes on the locomo-
tives of the Now Haven road must be
removed by an application‘of black
paint. Nothing but the initial letters
of the road and the number of the lo-
comotive will appear in color. The
stripes on the whistle, sand and
steam domes on the cab and tenders
will all he obliterated and nearly total-
ly black machines will soon be the
rule on this road. The plan will be
made uniform on the whole system.
Some new engines which the road re
ccntly received wcro without the
stripes and whcncvcr an old one goes
in the shops it will come out with a
new dress of black point.

That the freight locomotives of the
New Haven road are not doing as
much work as machines of their i-Iu-
perior ability should, ls evidenced by
the company's decision to increase the
rating of all engines in this class of
the service. 10 per cent. This means
longer and heavier trains and in some
cases an additional brakemsn.

The increase in rating holds during
the summer only. in case engines can
not make schedule time with the addi-
tional cars. the matter will be reported
to the proper authorities and the poor
pullers will be registered to work suit-
ed to thcll strength and strontlcr ones
now doing light work will be given
heavier jobs.

President Charles S. Mellon of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
road, has bought land on Whitney ave»

It will rest in the neighborhood of $35.-
000. The architect is Clarence True of
Sixth avenue, New York city. Mr.
Mellon, upon becoming president of
the New Haven road. looked about for
a residence. It is understood after
various places had been looked over
he decided to build and chose Whitney

(New Haven Imder.)

An increase ili wages for II number
of its tl-uillmcil is soon to ho annouuc.
cd by the New York. New Haven and
Hartford Railroad company, Semi'oiil-
ciaily several of the trainmcn have
learned that the company has decided
to adlance tho wages of a number of
the men. About Iii) per cent will of
course not be increased. The increase
Is to benefit principally the lowest
paid iraiIInII-n.

A short time ago the trainmen pre-
sented It request for an Intci'pretatlon
of their schedule. The officials of the
company took up the matter with the
men at once and have now completed
the work. it is expected that some. sort
of an announcement of the company's.
decision will be made at the train-
men‘s meeting to be bold in the Odd
Fellows‘ building today. There is,
however. a likelihood that nothing will
be received officially until the next
meeting. June 19.

The ti'nlnmcn are greatly pleased
over the fair spirit in which the com-
pany has met the men.
