P. & S. STREET RAILWAY
I
At u meeting ol ihe directors o£ tilt
Plymouth and tianuwicb. Street Rail-
. way Co. held in Plymouth lust week
a report was presented by 1
'resident
3 Lathrop which indicated that a
healthy gain had been made hi the
number ot passengers carried and in
the gross and net income of tiie road.
The company was chartered a good
t many years ago to build and operate a
trolley line between Plymouth and
Sandwich , but the company only con-
structed a lew miles, f rom Hotel Pil-
1 grim , two ana a half miles from the
busi ness centre of Plymouth , to Fresh
pond, about nine miles out.
The Plymouth Ai Sandwich Street
, Rail way Co. has determined to not
only construct the road from Fresh
pond to Sagamore and carry it as far
J as tho Freeman place, which is on the
;j Sandwich-Iiourne boundary , but wii)
build it liv e miles farther and connect
at Huzzards Hay station , on the line
of the N. Y., X. 11. & II . rail road,
• with the New Hertford , .Middleboro as its
portio n of the cost of wide ning and
strengthe ning the bridge over the
CajKi Cod canal at Sagamore now be-
ing erect ed. An agreement has been
made with tiio Southern Massachu-
setts Telephone Co. and th e Plym-
outh IClee'rit: Light Co. for a new
joi nt pole li ne through .Maiiomet . ¦
A nother contract has been made wit h
th e Mass achusett s highw ay commis-
sioners which cover.-; all g rading on
1Ik; addition::! piece of St ; ;<¦ highway
which is soon to be built from the end
of the piece just complete d as far as
Nightingale 's co rner , near the foot of
"Hlack Ground hill. "
It was unanimously voted by the
meeting tha t tho capital stock should
l>e increased to s*^jln, and applica-
tion made to the Massa chusetts rail-
road commission f"r autho ri ty to is-
sue the same with five per cent . 2~>-
year bonds to an e<|ual amount. It is
expected the road will b- op.°n to the
public t ravel as far as the Cape Cod
canal by next . June.

Seemingl y Small Point That Threat !
ened to Disturb Eti quette of |
Royal Procession. I
"There is Jurt one thing the law-
abiding citizen may not do when
watching a royal procession in Lon
don, and my -wife, through attempting
to do it, mighty soon found out what
it is," said the traveler. "There was
a marrow-piercing wind to chill us
and Icy slush lay thick on the pave
ments that day we stood to see the
king go by. After teetering around
for a few minutes in a vain endeavor
to keep her feet warm my wife folded
a newspaper and stood on that. The
policeman at her side looked on in
kindly disapproval.
"'Mustn't do that,1 he Bald.
"Of course Bhe asked, 'Why not?'
"'Looks bad .' said he. 'If you was
back in the crowd it wouldn't make so
much difference, but right in the front
row it's against tbe rules to throw a
scrap of paper on the ground."
"My wife glanced at the long line ol
muddy shoes of all colors, sizes and
conditions,and wondered how one edge
of white paper could damage the dis
play, but the policeman's tone pre
eluded argument, so she picked up the
paper."
ONE THING RIGIDLY BARRED 1
i
Pennsylvania Professor Asserts Thai
Many of the Reptiles Arc Valu-
able Friend s of Man.
However men may regard the prop
ositlon advanced In the following edl
torial comment In the Chicago Reo
ord-Herald , there are mighty few
women who will not experience e
chill of horror tha t such a dreadful
idea could be entertained In the hu-
man brain. Says the Record-Herald:
Legislation to protect snake * that
are harmless to man and destructive
to rats , mice and other creature s ot>
noxious to farmere is being sought Is
several states , according to Profi H.
D. Bailey of Muhl enberg college, a
Penns ylvania institution. In a recent
lecture Prof. Bailey pr onounced the
"king snakes, the milk snakes, th«
bute, the corn, fox and Indigo sntkei
all valuabl e allies of the farmer " and
commend ed efforts to increase Uu
number of bull ennkea, which, thougt
large, are harmless and abound in
some western states .
As man's knowledge of nature in-
creases he finds many creatures useful
or harmless to his interests , 2nd h€
should act accordingly. Man y snake *
are benefactors of man, according to
authorities , and once the Instinctive
dread of them disappears thr ougfc
knowledge and familiarit y there it
| nothin g objectionable In their pres-
ence In fields or gardens. The move-
ment to protect useful and barmle si
snakes, like the movement to protect
song birds , should find favor throu gh-
out the country.
Come Out Ev«n.
Two Atchison men bantered each
other to trade a coapte of four-dol-
lar accounts sight unseen. When the
accounts were handed over It was
found that each one was an account
against the same man. It was one
trade where neither man got th«worst
of It—To peka Capital .
roor ManI
Mrs. Mary Austin in an address on
primitive woman tn Hew York, uttere d
a neat epigram about man.
"Never find fault with a man," she
said. "Praise him always."
Then, with a smile, she added:
"Man, you see, always regard s flat-
tery as truth, and troth an abuse."
WISHES TO PROTECT SNAKES
Tmngs Fish Can See.
It is doubtful if fish can distinguish
forms outside the -water, but they un
questionably can see moving objecti
at considerable distance. Their in-
stinct teaches them to floe from
strange moving things and from shad
owb thrown on the water by person*
moving along the waterside or bj
birds flying over. The proof that thej
cannot see the outlines of forms suf
Bciently well to distinguish between
animate and inanlr.ate objects, is that
they will show no more fear of an
i angler standing perfectly still in tb«
water, than they will of a tree or othei
harmless object That their eight it
keen in the water is evidenced by the
fact that game fishes, that prey on
their fellows, do much of their feeding
at night, pursuing and capturing min-
nows and other small fish tn deep,
dark holes.
Literary Tailors.
One does not look for literar y men
among tailors, but none the less the
profession can claim some illustrious
names. John Stow , the anti quar y and
author of the "Suwey of London." foi
Instance , began life at a tailor , and an-
other famous tailorin g antiquary was
John Speed, one of our early map-
makers and member of the Society oJ
Antiquaries.
And then there was Robert Hill
"the learned tailor " of Birmin gham
who contrived to teach himself Greet
and Hebrew and became famous aB a
writer of theological treatises. And
George Meredith waa born over the
tailor's shop.
Actor Holds Two Records.
Herr Bernhar d Baumeister has Jus*
celebrated the sixtieth anniversar y o!
his joining the Imperial Court theatei
of Vienna. This is believed to be a
record for any player , and as Baum
eister Is now 84 years old, and stir
plays regularly on the same stage , h<
holds the doubl e distinction of being
the oldest actor in Eur ope, and the
one who haB played longest at one and
tbe same theat er. He appeared Ir
the evening as Falstaff in "Henrj
rv," one of his most famous roles, and
received a tremendo us ovation , in re
airn for which he delivered a short
speech of thanks. The Emperor oi
Austria, who is two years Baumeister 't
jun ior, sent him a special message ol
congratulation and prom ised a pen
sion for life to his wife, a compara
tively young woman , whom the aged
actor marr ttd only two years ago.

he received from South Africans ,
When he wm coming down the cout

that he was playing very softly oo
the ship's piano when a man came ufi
