The gross earning of the Burlington system for last month were $2,258,791 ; net earnings , $25,290 ; gross earnings for same month of 1894 , $256,595 } ; net earnings , $51,115. From January 1st to July 31st there is a deficit of $256,804 ; for the same period last year the net earnings were $574,859 RAILWAY ACCIDENTS IN 1894. ( lrom the report of the Interstate Commerce Commission. ) During the year , 1,823 railway employes were killed and 23,422 were injured , as compared with 2,727 killed and 31,729 injured in 1893. This marked decrease in casualty is in part due to the decrease in the number of men employed , and the decrease - crease in the volume of business handled. The increased use of automatic appliances - ances on railway equipment also may have rendered railway employment less dangerous , and it may be that the grade of efficiency of employes has been raised. The number of passengers killed was 344 , an increase of 25 , and the number injured was 3,304 , a decrease of 195. Of the total number of fatal casualties to railway employes , 251 were due to coupling - ling and uncoupling cars , 439 to falling from trains and engiues , 5o to overhead obstructions , 145't0 collisions , lo8 to derailments - railments , and the balance to various other causes not easily classified. To show the ratio of casualty it may be stated that I employe was killed out of every 428 in service and 1 injured out of every 33 employed. The trainmen perform the most dangerous service , ] out of every - ery 156 employed having been killed and I out of every 12 having been injured. The , ratio of casualty to passengers is in striking contrast to that of railway employes , 1 passengerhaving been killed out of every 1,912,618 carried , orfor each 44,103,228 miles traveled , and 1 injured out of each 204,248 carried , or for each 4,709,771 miles traveled. . A distribution of accidents to the territerial groups exhibits - hibits the diversity in the relative safety of railway employment and of railway travel in the different sections of the country.-Scientific American. RFMARSABLE RAILWAY SPEED IN GREAT BRITAIN. LONDON , August 23.-The London & Northwestern railway company's new fast train between London and Aberdeen - deen , which left London at 8 o'clock , p. m. , august 22(1 , arrived at Aberdeen at 4:32 o'clocka.m.August 23d. Part of thejourney of 54o miles was covered at the rate of 75 miles an hour. This eclipses anything before recorded. To make this time , the average speed maintained must have been 63.47 miles an hour , including all stops. No American railroad can show anything - thing like this for long runs , although on short runs better time.has been made. On the New York Central the best time has been 4363 miles in 439 minutes , including stops. n Prescriptions We use only the best of everything and take special care to fill them accurate ] and rom t- . . . y.-----P-- ' : - - - - - - - - - - - - - - r Iy , for which we charge a moderate rice.

Railroading"down east" has its drawbacks - backs even if they do pity us poor devils that have to railroad in the "wild and woolly west" . Here are two examples : "August 9th , a passenger train on the Chicago , Pt. Madison and Des Moines was detained an hour by a swarm of hornets that attacked the engineer and fireman as the train was moving slowly on an ascending grade. The car windows were open and many passengers were stung" . "Near Coney Island , N. Y. , passenger trains have been stalled by potatoe bugs. It appears that the engines - gines on the Sea Beach railroad carry a fair supply of sand , but the bugs are so numerous that one box is not sufficient for a whole trip. One train was delayed half an hour while men went back to the beach to get a supply of sand which was there" . s , # i ll1 ' - S r iI , ill New Cloaks , : ' New Capes , .
