*1 TBAFFIC AT BRAZIL THE OTCKEASE..

The VIam Cave Mine* IncreMlag Their Output Another W»*hont -c tke E.T.H. ,,

The Brazil Block Coal Company has secured tbe contract for furnishing the Eastern Illinois, the Chicago & Indiana Cool Railway and the Chicago 4c Atlantic with coal. The three roada consume nearly ten thousand tons of coal per month and is an important contract for the Brazil mines to secure. The coal to be delivered on the car at $1.05 per ton. The Chicago & Atlantic has heretofore contracted with the Hocking Valley mines for its coal. The new contract brings an enormous amount of money to this state which has gone elsewhere before and unless there is a disturbance over the scale question on May 1st there will be a great increase in the output of the Brazil mines. The precedence which crude oil and natural gas obtained for a short time at Chicago and Indianapolis is now being overcome by the steady pressure of the coal trade and the latter is now steadily increasing. The Vandalia owns all of the sidings at Brazil and does the switching for all of the mines. Tbe prospects are now that within thirty days another switch crew will be sent to the Brazil branches and that within another year the coal traffic wilt be up to tbe maximum.

Railway Rumbling*.

Jack Ilennesy, the Vandalia detective^ is in the city to-day. Fred Ellison, claim agent of the Van dalia, was in the city to-day.

Conductor C. C. Paddock, of the Vandalia, has returned from Hot Springs. He took out his run this morning.

The Vandalia engineer corps returned this morning from Croys creek on the east division where they were looking into the condition of the road.

The Big Four has begun to renumber all of its engines. The numbers will be arranged so as to classify them according to the divisions on which they run.

George H. Freseott, superintendent of motive power and machinery of the Vandalia has ordered the force in the carpenter shop to work ten hours per day The order takes effect to-day The whole shop is now running ten hours per day.

The force in the Mattoon shops of the Big Four lias increased about twenty per cent since the consolidation of the Be Line and Big Four companies. There are now five hundred mon employed and the shops are among the best equipped in the country.

The output, of coal along the Evansville & Terre Haute is on the increase. The Alum Cave mines are shipping large quantities to Chicago, and unless there is trouble over the new scale question on May 1st the prospects are good for a continued increase.

The Fairland, Franklin and Martinsville division of the Big Four Railway is distributing steel rails along its line, which will be put in at an early day. It has been but twentv years since this division was traversed with tbe old fashioned fiat bars. The road bed is now equal to the best.

Regarding the rumor that a syndicate is to buy the Ohio Falls Car Works, President Smyser says he some time ago gave an option on the works, but no sale has been made, nor is there now likely to be, The same parties held an option on the Indianapolis car works for sixty days, but allowed it to expire.

Trainmaster W. S. Paige, of the Eastern Illinois and C. & I. 0. lines, will in will in all probability put on passenger trains over the latter line from Mo me nee to Brazil within the next thirty days. There has been an effort made by the residents living along the line and the prospects are that an accommodation passenger train will run each war every day.

The contract for the E. & R. steel bridge across the Whitewater at Richmond, was let Monday to the Pittsburg

Stel Bridge Compam-. The contract price is $&%000. The Evansvilte & Richmond now in a very fair way to completion. The Pittsbui^ Bridge company has contracted to complete the bridge within six woeksafter the steel is delivered on the ground.

This morning the bridp^ ft! Snapp'g Creek on the Evansville Terre Haute where Engineer Al Lyons and Fireman Louis Bowden were killed, was washed out. Train JNO. 6 due at 5 10 a. m. was delayetl six hours on account of the trouble. The bridge which was washed away was only a temporary structure built over the creek to replace the one which was washed out before the wreck. On Sunday the engine was gotten out of the creek mid Chief Engineer Allen was at ttie creek with a force of men preparing to put in a permanent new bridge. In doing this tbe temporary structure was weakened and it readily gave way to the pressure of the water.

Tt»* Uilfftlsh Bath.

"You hear tbe English people boasting of their fondness for bathing," said an American resident to me an evening or two since. °Kow I have lived in England for twenty-four yams, and 1 happen to know that antil within the! List fifteen years it was almost impossible to find such a thing as a bathtub in England. Even at the nn&ent ftb liaUnog there is as much difference between the American both and the Englwb bath as there between inimerstou mh! sprinkling.

LOSS OF MEMORY FOR SIX MONTHS.

A Singular story of a Sew Haxapstiire Maa'a Aimtaw Windrtlngv A strange story of loss of memory is that told by Arthur Dow, who disappeared Aug, 80 last from Littleton, N. H. and was found by his wife in Seattle, Wash. At the time Dow disappeared from Littleton he was a successful merchant there, having a business worth $800,000, on which he realized $26,000 a year. Dow was a church member, strictly temperate man, and enjoyed the confidence of the entire community. He was married to an estimable lady and had two daughters, aged 8 and 0. He disappeared, no one knew whither. Rewards were offered and detectives employed, but to no avail. His wife and friends, after a month of inquiry, gave him up for dead, supposing he had met foul play. He left his business affairs in such good condition that his wife's friends soon straightened them out.

In February Mrs Dow was greatly surprised to receive a letter from her husband dated Tacoma, Jan. 27. Its tone indicated mental incapacity, Mrs. Dow at once telegraphed to Mrs. Philip Win sor, a married sister in Seattle, to go to Tacoma and take care of her husband. Then she boarded a train for Seattle. Philip Winsor went to Tacoma and found the missing merchant. He looked wild. His hair had grown down to his. shoul ders and his beard was long and un kempt. He told a strange story. He said that when he left home he had a hallucination that a man in Plymouth N. II., would sell him a large amount of coal at a fabulously low rate. He went there, but imagining the man had gone west followed. He lost all memory of his own name for several months, which were perfect blank. He had checks and $120 in his pocket.

When he got to Portland, Ore., Nov. 11, he came partly to his senses and tried to buy a ticket to go home on the train The price was $59 and he had only $50. He remembered that he had relatives in Seattle and bought a ticket there, but on the train he relapsed again and lost all idea of identity and remained at Tacoma. He has an indistinct idea that he was an inmate of a hospital for many weeks. He thinks he owes a large bill for medi cal attendance, but the impression is vague.

His instinct of self preservation led to securing work in a sash and door factory in Tacoma, A short time before he wrote to his wife he was seized with the grippe. When he recovered from this, although in debt, his mind seemed to brighten. He realized who he was and wrote to his wife, telling her he was in debt for board and medical attendance, and to send him enough money to pay his way home. He was brought to Mrs. Winsor's house.

When his wife arrived the scene between the long lost husband and wife can better be imagined than described. Mr. Dow bad brightened perceptibly, and hopes of recovery are entertained. The family were talking about Masonry, when Mr. Dow remarked*: •'Why, I am a Knight Templar. I forgot all about it till this moment. In my troubles if I had known I would not have wanted for anything. I would have been cared for and restored to my wife and family but I forgot the fact, too, when I failed to remember my name. It is funny, but it seems to me I forgot everything. The past is a complete blank for several months."—Chicago Tribune.

Overproduction of Esrg».jfeS

It is painful to learn that the' last example of pernicious activity in the line of ruinous overproduction is presented by the hens of the nation, Undeterred by the great commercial industries engaged ill the selling of pickled eggs at thirty cents per dozen, the American hens have been misled by the mild winter into turning put a supply of fresh eggs that ha^ knocked the pickled and artificial egg business into a condition closely approximating panic. Wo have not heard that any complaint of this state of affairs is made by the consumers of eggs, but the proprietors of more antique stock are plainly convinced that the interests of die nation will be sadly injured if the public gets too cheap and too fresh eggs, A movement to put the hens into a trust which will restrict the industrious fowls to a production of two eggs per week is tbe obvious remedy according to the economic policy of the day.—Pittsburg Dispatch.

A Double Cocoannt.

The Royal Botanic society has received for its museum a specimen of tbe double cocoanut, known also as cooo de mer. For hundreds of years the origin of these nuts was a mystery, for they were never seen except when they were washed up by the sea. They Were supposed to have wonderful powers in the way of curing disease, and were the subject of other superstitions until the place where they grew was at Inst discovered to be the Seychelles, a small group of islands la the Indian ocean. Formerly they were worth their weight in gold, and they are rare now.—Chicago Herald.

GOLD FEVER IN CHINA,

Preparations 8«ing Made

:'to

Woit Be-

ooKtly OimmiMd Lead of Great lTlehaea». A conference was held at the Grand Pacific yesterday between two Chinese noblemen and two representatives of the mining machinery firm of Fraser & Chalmers, with the result that negotiations were formally entered into looking to the construction of a 300-stamp mill in the mountains Of China. The magnitude of the deal may be understood when it is staged that the mill, with all its machinery and appointments, will cost not far from $4,000,000. This sum will include all preliminary expenses. The announcement that such a gigantic mill was to be built in China astounded even the members of the firm, well posted as they are in all matters pertaining to mining and mining machinery. They had no idea that there was enough gold bearing rock in China to pay for the erection of a stamp mill of any size. They were informed by the Chinese noblemen that there has been discovered in the heart of China the richest and most extensive gold bearing lead in the world.

There is an old story in Chinese history to the effect that at one time, many centuries ago, there was tremendous excitement over the discovery of gold in the Tai-Shan. But after a time the gold gave out, and although the industrious Celestials continued to dig for several years their profits were very small. Finally the search for the yellow grains was entirely given up. The Chinese did not know very much, about mining in those days. They did not know that by crushing the rocks and treating the resulting dust with chemicals the hidden gold could be released. Now they know all about the methods of gold production. Chinamen rushed to California during the gold excitement and a few years later rushed to Australia. They returnednto their homes with money and knowledge.

About two years ago some Chinese prospectors entered the Tai-Shan mountains determined to find gold bearing quartz if it existed in the country. Before the first week of their search was ended they found significant outcroppings. A little later they discovered the great lead which is now known to be of almost fabulous value. One of these men was Leng Chen, a man who had had con siderable experience in mining and prospecting in California, and who knew the wisdom of silence. They kept very still about the find until a company had been formed and a clear title to a large tract of land secured. Some crude stamp mills were erected, and the crushing and reduction of quartz was begun. From the outset the production of gold was enormous, and it is stated that not a ton of ore has been treated that has yielded less than $700. In particular cases the ore has yielded as much as $10,000 to the ton. The news of the lucky mining venture spread rapidly in China, but for some reason has been kept from the world.

A trust, controlling about eighty miles of land in the gold country, sent Chu Ling Kwan and Tong Sing Kou to this country to make preliminary arrangements for the purchase of the necessary machinery to begin operations on a modern and gigantic scale.

When a reporter was admitted to the room the distinguished arrivals occupied he found Chu Ling Kwan attired in the full dress of a Chinese mandarin. Every garment upon him was made of the softest and shiniest of silk. Tong Sing Kou wore American dress. Tong Sing lived in America many years, and attended American schools. He speaks English very fluently. "Our property at one point is within sixteen miles of the sea coast," said he, and it is not more than twenty miles to good port. The land owned by the companies is all in the county of NingHoi, In tbe province of Shan-Tung. If you ar^not familiar with the geography of~«MB&» I will tell you that the mines are on a peninsula across the Corean sea from the Peninsula of Corea and directly west."

Tong Sing opened a valise^ unrolled a chamois skin and exhibited his specimens. "You will see," he said, "that the gold is quite coarse 'in these specimens. It is not so throughout the lead. In some places it is exceeding fine and again it is found in nuggets. The streams which run. through the mountains wash out gold and 5,000 people make a living by cradling the sand in the bed of one river. After every heavy rain the supply of gold dust in the river bed is replenished. I believe that in a very few years the mines will be the most valuable in the world. We contemplate erecting tbe finest plant in the world. There was a difference of opinion among the stockholders as to whether it would be better to erect one SOO-stamp mill or three 100stamp mills. We have asked Fraser & Chalmers to make estimates on both propositions. The stock in the mining companies is held by upper class Chinamen. Most of the stockholders are government officials, but the government of the Chinese empire does not in any way own or amtrol the mines, The companies are essentially private corporations "—Chicago Herald.

The Retort Unfortunate.

A certain Shakespearean club ifvM& of the most fashionable suburbs was entertained successively by the various members. It finally became the duty of a popular young bachelor to assume the position of host. Wishing to make the evening a pleasant reminiscence to all present the gentleman had Rosalie Music hall, in which lie proposed entertaining, decorated in a charming manner. He also had a delicious luncheon served by a proficient caterer, and the appointments were elegant in every particular, So thoroughly enjoyable was the evening that every one felt like expressing their thanks to the young host, and in various pretty speeches did the ladies signify their appreciation of his efforts.

Surrounded by a bevy of his fair guests, the face of the young man was the picture of delight, when another young lady joined the circle and offered thanks where thanks were due. Her manner of expressing herself, however, caused the light to die out of the young gentleman's face, and a baby stare superseded it. It might be remarked here that the young man had offered his hand to a Rosalie Court belle the preceding month and been refused. And the lady, entirely unconscious of the affair, said: "Oh, Mr. Blank, I really must compliment you on the charming manner in which you have entertained us this evening. Everything has been perfectly lovely we have noticed the absence of nothing that would have added to the evening's enjoyment, unless, perhaps, a hostess, and (in a piquant manner) we are sure that is something you really couldn't procure."—Pittsburg Dispatch.

Hew Waiters Grow Rich,

I am informed that Mrs. Ladenburg intends to distinguish herself by silently effecting a relief from an evil that has gradually grown into monstrous proportions in society.

The growing extortion of waiters at our fashionable entertainments is a matter that has lately assumed such a guise that if Mrs. Ladenburg has really taken up the cause of her friends against the imposition of the waiters, she will be hailed as a crusader of not less courage than Coeur de lion.

At present it is impossible to get served at a ball without paying a week's wages to the garcon. At Sherry's, as at Del* monlco's, you are at the mercy of the austere yet perspiring fraternity, who only see a hungry guest through the flbered density of a greenback. Alacrity in service graduated according to the size of the fee.

At the last Patriarchs' I gave my waiter a dollar and made shift with cold victuals, while on one side of me was a guest who for a five dollar tip fared sumptuously, while on4he other was a brave but mistaken gentleman, who ignored the waiter's avaricious palm, aad was ignored by that functionary in return.—New York Truth.

Among her daintiest treasures are scfene finger howls of white Bohemian glass, shaped like yellow primroses, wonderfully thin and ornamented with rery delicate arabesque jcold figures.

AarSfltoctive Prayer.

A Portland boy committed some misdemeanor for which he was about to receive punishment at the hands of his mother. The boy begged to be allowed to go to his room. Permission was granted and the child went up-stairs to his own room and closed the door behind him. The mother followed and listened outside, after telling him he must hurry and come down again and receive his punishment. The boy went to the side of the bed, knelt down, and this was his prayer: "Dear Lord, if you love little boys and want to help me out, now is the time,"

The prayer was answered.—Lewiston Journal.
