The early evening suburban trains coming into the Broad street station and the Heading terminal In Phila delphia contain a good sprinkling these days of young men and women carrying bags filled with golf clubs, The boys who lurk about the exits in the hope of picking up nickels and dimes for carrying small baggage let these people severely alone. They know It’s no use. A young man alighted from one of the trains at thd terminal yesterday afternoon, says the Philadelphia Record, accompanied by two young women. He was, conse quently, loaded down with three of the unwieldy bags—his own and those of his two companions. As he passed through the gates he was approached by a boy, who cried: “Carry yer bag gage, mister?” The young man sim ply w'aved him aside. Another boy, more worldly wise, took the first boy to task: “When yer in de business as long as me,” ho said, you’ll know bet ter dan to waste yer breat’ on dem guys. Dem’s golf players, dem is. Dey wouldn't let yer carry dere stuff fer not’n’. Dey t'ink It's smart to be seen carryin’ dem clubs around’ de streets. Home of ’em carries ’em aroun’ w’ot don't play golf at ail.

Curtain and Piece Fell. Edmond About, the French novelist, was once asked to write a newspaper notice of a play written by a friend. The playwright begged him to discuss the acting and scenery, but to say little about the drama itself, which was evi dently not proving much of a success. About did as requested, told of the plot at length and gave much detail as to accessories, winding up with this sen tence: "About midnight the curtain fell, and with it the piece." Arab Harem in Mexico City. A genuine Arab’s harem has come to light in this city, or rather to the ears of the police, through the com plaint of a young Mexican girl, who some time ago was prevailed upon to become an inmate, says the Mexican Herald. The lord of the harem was an Arab known as A1 Isliam, who came here with a number of his tribe, and finally set up housekeeping with four comely damsels of the tribe on Callejon de la Rosa. The Mexican girl, whose name was Soledad Gonzales, was taken to the house, where some special mar riage rites were performed, and she was arrayed in Arab costume. She was much disconcerted at finding there were four wives already, but says she finally became resigned to the life. Her lord and master gave her a severe beating, however, and making her es cape, slio applied to the police for pro tection. The house was accordingly raided, but the wily Arab had got wind of the affair and in the traditional manner of his countrymen, bad "folded his tenis" and ■‘sn',nkr hotel in grand I ?• Ij«nr'.

TRAGEDY OF A LOCOMOTIVE. Inglorious Kndiug of the Career of a World's Fair Wonder. Engine No. 909, so the types have told, draws a daily milk tru'n on the New York Central railroad. Therein lies the tragedy of a locomotive. Eight years ago this same 999 was a pet ex hibit in the machinery department of the World’s Fair at Chicago. It was the monarch of the rails, the holder of a world’s record, the subject of great newspaper headlines, and the in spiration of editorials on attainable speed. In May, 1893, without breath ing hard, No, 999 did a nine-mile spurt on a level track at the rate of 102 miles an hour. On the same trip and many times afterward the great locomotive drew the Empire State express during a long run at a sus tained speed of more than a mile a minute. It was photographed in Its great act by the biograph process, and to this day, on countless moving pic ture screens, breathless music hall crowds may see its counterfeit pre sentment approach and vanish in a calcium glare. And now 999 draws a milk train! Having traveled “the pace that kills,” it has gone to the rest cure. Overtrained, like a human athlete, the ex-cha;npion ef the steel highway must henceforth ‘‘live softly” all its days. But what a churning It would give the fresh Orange county cream If some day old 999 should sud denly awake, as did the old deacon's famous trotter, to a revived sense of its former prowess!—New York Sun. Chicago'* 4.403 I.uwyen. Last January there were iu Chicago 4,403 lawyers. It was estimated that during the year the average income of the lawyers did not exceed $750. A few lawyers have incomes of $40,000, and a larger number attain to the dig nity of $30,000. The attorney who can be sure of $5,000 has a practice recognized as good, and a standing in his profession. : Baking Powder Alum baking powders are the greatest menacers to health of the present day.
