GOOD EVENING. It is only the very poor who are not - tired of strawberries by the time they get cheap. Time heals all wounds, but some of us are nOt pet mitted to 1 emain on em th long enough to see the complete cure. New York will be terribly ‘oli'ended if George Dewey slips in at the back door of the country. Perhaps the government will give Gen. Gomez enough of an army to keep the flies Off while he dozes in his. hammock. Listeners may never hear any good of themselves, but they get a lot of points of which they would otherwise be ignorant. Close observers have noticed that what is known as\the frozen hand is with the cold closely connected shbulder.

The refusal to permit the landing in San Francisco of . ten Filipinos who, . leaving their downtrodden country in the lurch. have come to appear as actors in a dime museum, is likely to bring the anti-imperialistic newspapers face to face with a dilemma, which at the opening of the silly season, will The re- fusal is based on a ruling that the visitors are laborers cOming in under a contract, and it is a burnlng question in some editorial roOms whether they should be sympathized with because of the tyrannical treatment of an im- whether dc- perialistic government, or they should be condemned for liberately casting their lot. or trying to cast it, with such a depraved people as'the American-s have come to be. - —————————‘0-0 Parsnip complexion.

When the receivers of the Baltimon 15: Ohio railroad began the now famous series of improvements of the physical Condition of the entire system, their ob- ject was to increase both the trainload and the nun1be1 Of 1131 enue tons per mile, and at the same time reduce the cost of transpOI tation. Much has been done, and by the lowering of grades, elimination of‘curves, laying of new steel rails and the purchase of heavy motive power they have very materially added to the number of cars per train. But it was not until the 17th of March last that a demonstration was made of what might be expected of the new Bal- timore & Ohio railroad. Enough new 60-t0n capacity steel cars had been de- livered to give the operating depart- ment :1 chance to experiment. Fifty steel curs, each weighing 34,000 pounds, were loaded with an average of 98,000 pounds of coal. To them was coupleda new 22x28-inch consolidation locomo- tive weighing 165,700 pounds and hav- ing 54—inch driving wheels. The start was made from Cumber- land, Md., and the .destination was Brunswick, MIL, On the Second division. In his report General Superintendent Fitzgerald says the train was pulled with comparative ease and that the class of engines used will be able to handle 50 cars of 50 tons’ capacity each on that division without trouble. Hitherto the trainload on that di- .vision has been 325 units of 6% tons each, or about 2,200 tons, a 40 per cent. increase over that of five years ago. The 50-car train was computed as con- taining 497‘ units, or 6,458,100 pounds gross. The net weight of coal in the train was 4,758,100 pounds. It was by far the heaviest train ever hauled over the line and demonstrated . that heavy pow er, modern equipment with safety appliances, and a- good track, mean more revenue tons per mile and a decreased cost of tiansportationfi Professidhal Card.
