She was an interesting girl and- much liked by those who knew her.

THE RAILROADS.

The H. St O and

Cfaie —General I'eroual.

NEW YORK, N. January II.—As a result, of the cut of $5 in "west-houtiri pas«OKfr ratsi ntttde by the Bjl*ininre& Ohio ro»d, im ticket ulikts in this ciiy have been crowded ali morning. The effect of the reduction on the business of tbe other trunk lines has not as et be*n made f. lly apparent, but it is expected it serious inroads upon their

the other lines, The genera eastern pas senger agent of tiieNew York, Lake Erie & Western road said that he had not yet received orders to cut rates to those made by the B. & O. Nothing couid be done until after the Trunk line passenger agents had held a meeting to talk over the situation. A ticket broker on Broad way said that the ticket broker of this city regarded tlie cut made by the B. & O as the entering wedge which would break the railroad pool which wa» recently established.

The report that the Pennsylvania railroad company has ordered a cut in passenger rates westward from Baltynore to conform with the B. & O. rates is denied by the company's officials in this city.

The Lowell Pass Fiends.

The Globe Democrat thus exposes a confidence gama that has been played extensively

That old pass fiend, the "Massachusetts & New Hampshire R. R., and Steamboat Co.," which the Globe-Democrat exposed and ventilated last October, is in the field again asking railway companies lAvnltarinA btinnol naoMa CITCU"

to "exchange annual passes.' lar this year reads as follows: MASSACHUSETTS & Nxw HAMPSHIEE R.

R.<p></p>.B.)

Or-£ 5.

AND STEAMBOAT CO. MANAGES'A OFFIOE, LOWELL, MASS., DEC. 1,1885, DEAR SIB—I would bs pleased to exchange anaual passes with yon for 1886. Our list is as follows: Frank B. Dow, president ED wardB. Pierce, manager J. Fallan, traveling agent, leurs truly,

EDWABD B. PXEBGE, Manager.

The presumption is that it is not pretty generally known that "R. R." stands for "River Rafting," and that it is even worse than a paper concern, for it has no charter, organization, boats, rafts, barges nor a mile of railway. Its only object seems to be to secure annual and trip passes over such railways as, are loosely managed. The request circulars are, however, sent to all railway?, with the hope that there are more foolish officials than is generally supposed. Manager Edward B. Pierce made a water haul out of the St. Louis roads.

The Engineers,

The New York Sun says: An engineer in charge of a locomotive has a duty to perform of so exceptional a character as to requiee that he shall be a man of exceptional qualifications. He must be a man of nerve, of decision, of good habits, sound consitution, and complete trailing.

In fact, a qualified locomotive engineer is a very considerable man from every point of view, and he is entiiled to special consideration. The nervqus strain to which he is subjected is unintermitted while he is at his work, and to keep him up to it, it is necessary that he should be well fed, well housed and well rested. Physically as well as morally he is a skilled laborer of the highest class that we know.

We doubt if the best railroad managers in the country believe that any locomotive engineer should be rej. ularly worked more than six honrs at a stretch but the engineers of our elevated railroads feel themselves perfectly equal to eight, and only object because eleven are exacted All competent railroad men are agreed that the greatest danger attends the over^ working of the engineers.

Wanbtpgtnn and the O. & M. *bops. Judge irdiner is the chairman of a committee charged with getting tbe O. & M. railroad shops moved to Washington^ Ind. Thursday he received a written communication from Captain Peabody, president of the O. & M. road. The document in substance says that the policy of the company is to centralize their machine and car shops now located at Cochran, Seymour and Vincennes at a single point and that the people of Daviess country can have the at or near their county

ertyhad disposed of the Terre Haute property. Dr. McGrew, it is said, is willing to same assist the state in the prosecution of seat by donating $75,000 and sixty acres

of ground. The proposition mu3t he acceded to by the 1st of February, 1886. The title to the ground must be clear of all clouds and encumbrances. The removal of the machinery now used at the above named points is to be made as soon as the buildings are completed.

Correspondence in yesterday's Louisville Courier-Journal says that the proposition will be accepted with satisfaction.

Local aad General,

Doc. Appleby, traveling passenger agent of the 'Frisco line, was in the city yesterday.

The stockholders of the St. Lonis, Vandalia, and Terre Haute meet to-day at Greenville for the election of directors.

Yesterday a C. & E. I. freight engine, while backing over the ath pit in the Vandalia switching yards, jumped the track.

The Vandalia last week brought into Indianapolis 873 loaded cars the I. A St. L. 902. The Vandalia brought 324 eras of block coal and 203 cars of live stock

Tbe Chicago Eastern Illinois road advises its agents and connections as follows: "In future the agents of this company will not jnly decline to advance any charges, but will in all cases require prepayment of all freight charges on agricultural implements, machinery, stoves and store furniture returned t* manufacturers or dealers, unless the written order of the manufacturer *r

ONE WINTER IN ALABAMA.

Christmas Tide in the Suotli Described by "Belle Bremer." The following was written by tie wife of Dr. Swafford, of this city, and appeared in the Indianapolis Herald of last week: "Beyond the Alps lies Italy." Beyond that low range of mountains lies "God's country" and home. I gaze at a high, 'round knob—the natives call it "Tater knob" and say it is directly north—'till a mist—it may be on the mountain, it maj be in my eyes—obscures my vision, and think, four hundred miles, straight as the crow flies, beyond that knob lies my Italy home.

What an intense longing we have to be among friends at the blessed Christmas time. A stranger in a strange land, I feel the intensity of the desire as never before. I go to their holiday festivities, but feel I am only "among them, not of them." and amid all the rejoicing mr soul is far away among friends I sit with them, and they know it not.

Our Christmas festivities have been of a very mild order, Christmas trees, candy, stews, etc., have been the kind of entertainment to which we have been treated. I went to a v^hristmas tree entertainment at the Presbyterian church, also to one given by the Espiscopal ladies and felt like I had been indulging in the wildest sort of dissipation. The Presbyterian church was prettily decorated. Festoons of cedar and holly hung from window to window, and on each side of the tree, a little in trout of it, hung Christmas bells made of cedar, a

large hoop covered with evergreen, magnolia leaves and paper magnolia flowers was suspended from the central chandelier. The paper magnolias looked quite natural among the shining leaves. The tree was well .loaded with gifts for all, ard tbp s'ar of Bethlehem shone in the center.of the green foliage like a beacon light. But, of all things, they had th«" en ss exposed. A cross at Christmas I What an ideal

Sam Jones has been all through this part of the country dispensing with the gospel," great crowds following him wherever he went, and hanging on his words as if they were inspired. Southern people are impulsivei and excileable and take as kindly to this sort of preaching as a duck does to water. The southern heart will be fired when ourcolder noithern blood will flow as calmly as a placid river. The "still small voice," of God they do not care for he must thunder from Sinai if he want* them to heed. Of course I am speaking of them collectively.

Scottsboro is off the beaten track of tourists, consequently we see but very few travelers, we except the ubiquitous drummer he goes everywhere. Yea, could we "take the wings of the morning and flee to the uttermost part of the earth," there would he and his sample case be also at least, I think so. I think there is only one place to which he never goes, and that is Heaven. Occasionally an Indianian stops here, and I never fail to take a good look at him. have a sort of "hail brother" feeling for the sorriest specimen from Hoosierdom that ever •omes this way.

Northern people are still Yankees here and will be, I suppose, to the end of the present generation. It seeijs rather strange for an Indianian—a simon pure Hoosier, to be called a Yankee. But a Yankee I am and a Yankee I will ever be in the eyes of the good people of Scottsboro. BELLE BREMER.

AMUSEMENTS.

ivi Grand Opera House, Harry Webber and company appeared in this well known popular play last night. Harry Webber is entitled to the term, a protean artist, as he assumes a number of characters verv well, as be puts on various disguises in his role of detective: There are several very fair actors in the troupe. Little Carrie Webber, a very bright little girl, plays a part and sings excellently. The audience applauded and laughed in approval of the performance.

The management announce that they will add several stoves to their heating capaciiy for to-nitht and during the remainder of the cold weather.

To-night the p'ay will be "Bessie's Burglar and Painting the Town," a funny comedy.

Naylor's. Opera Hons*.

The appearance of the American. Queen of Song, Mme. Emma Nevada, at Naylor's Opera House this evening promises to be the artistic musical success of the season. "May Blossom," one of the Madison Square Theater successes, will be preseijud Wednesday evening. "A Parlor Match" will be givtfn Thursday and Friday evenings, with the popular, commtdians Evans and Hoey and a splendid company.

Zo was played in Danville Friday and Saturday. A matinee Saturday altertiotn had a large attendance including hundreds of children.

Notes.

Crane of Robson & Crane, tells a wonderful story of financial prosperity. Lnst season was dull, yet Robson & Crane netted $37,0(0. This season they invested $30,000 in costumes and scenery, and for the first fifteen weeks the receipts were $40,000 in excess of the corresponding period last season. "Rob, and I have great heads," remarked the comedian.

New York Letter: Modesty was probably absent from the city when Ed Rice had the dresses built for Evangeline and her female friends. Josie Hail's costume above the waist-belt may be one of the causes' of filling the front rows of the orchestra seats with men, but I should hate awfully" to take a young lady to see "Evangeline." If May Fisk should dress her blondes in the stingy costumes of the "Evangeline" company and attempt to give an entertainment on the Chicago levee I am qnite sure Mayor Harrison would have the whole kit and crew lugged off to the armory. Well, Mr. Rice prob ably reasons that there must be something "attractive" in the dreEses of the company, since the burlesque is undeniably the Worst mess o£ rubbish ever seriously put forward as an entertainment.

Victoria Morosini Schilling will leave the Casino, company with the last performance of "Amorita," January 16, and join Harrigan's Park theater organiza tion. Just what sort of parts Mme. Schilling will be cast for at the Park is at present a mystery, but in any event she will hardly attempt Juliet or Nadjesda for as many as six months to come. Her husband is filling a brilliant engagement as substitute conductor of a Sixth avenue horse car,

Sydney Rosenfeld has been invited to Write the libretto for a new opera by Johann Strauss, and I am told he has accepted.

Selina Dolaros* comedy, called "Fashion," is to be acted in the spring, with Louis JameSj Marie Wainwright and Mme. Dolaro in the cast.

Bartley Campbell: Some of the croakers have been crjing out thfit 1 was about to become a bankrupt, but I will have to disappoint them. I have $65,000 worth of residence property in New York, jwhich returns me 19 per cent, per annum. I pay $1,000 for the Fourteenth street theater, and have sublet it for $2,400 a month. The five companies I have on the road presenting my different plays are-all doing well. I am therefore in no danger of going to the poorbouse yet, don't you see Some of the croakers wrote that I was losing my mind, and I retorted that it -would be a good thing for them if tbey could lose their minds in the same way. No, I don't find that the rage for such pieces as "A Rag Baby" interfere with the patronage given my plays. What you want to do nowadays is to make the people laugh and cry on the same night, and then you've got'em.

His Legs Frozen.

Johfl Fitzsimmons was an engineer of a switch engine in the E. & T. H. yards here two years ago. Since that time I has been a switchman in the E. & T. yards at Evansville. Sunday his kg) were 60 frozen while he was wor' ing in the yards that it is thought they will have to be amputated.
