The mild weather of this fall has boon
no-whero moro appreciated than among
the crowa of railroad trains , especially of
freights.
Winter is harder on the train-men than
any other class except the poor. In turn-
met they auH'ar from heat bat in winter ,
to the biting cold Is added the danger of
mishaps on the icy decks of the cars or
the slippery rails and frogs in switching.
Thoao folks who earn their money so dearly -
ly and run such great risks are thankful
for the delightful warm weather and ab-
Bonce of snow.

! FOR THE HOCKIES.
It is reported that the Chicago & ,
Northwestern will before long extend its
system from the Missouri river to a June
tlon with the Central Pacific at Ogdon.
Utah. Such an extension could bo made
cither by prolonging the Black Hills line
from Pierre , Dak. , ita present terminus ,
through Wyoming , or by continuing the
Sioux City & Pacific through Northern
Nebraska to Ogden. The Hallway Ago
which seems to be unaware of the oxia
teneo of the B. & M. and D. & R. G. , or
else of the fact that they are virtually 0
il. & Q. extensions and give that road a
complete system from Chicago to Ogden
say a :
( n time wo believe that the Northwest'
erii , the Burlington & Quincy and the
Milwaukee & St. Paul will bo oxtendec
ont to the Rocky Mountains and possiblj
even to the Pacific coast. The valloyi
and plains to bo traversed have resource !
and advantages now unappreciated am
the advent of railways Into now localities
will aorvo to dovolopo them.
The Nortnwestorn would show an en
torprlso that would bo well rewarded If 1
should bo the first to push out into thi
heart of Wyoming territory and on to
The Ago continues : It must bo tha
the trunk and the Chicago and Miasonr
river lines are carrying passengers simply
out of bonovolouco , or the ploaauro de
rived by themselves from such a charity ,
for , surely , at the present rates , there
cannot bo any urofit in their action. The
St. Louis and Chicago lines are also engaged
gagod in a similar undertaking.
These roads aroadminlttcred by officers
who are paid salaries which go on just the
name whether rates are maintained o
not ; the properties are owndd , however
by stockholders who , if rates are cu
down to nothing , do not receive the divi
deuds that would otherwise bo paic
thorn.
The situation reminds us of the fabl
which tolls how certain bad boys amuaec
themselves by throwing stones at froga in
the pond. The poor froga at last spok
np and said that , while throwing missies
might bo fun for the boys , it was then
death to them. This demoralization ol
rates may bo exceedingly funny for to
ticket agents and other railroad officers ,
also prooably to travelers , who are o
course gl&d to got something lot nothing
but is terribly rough on the stockholders

GiuoAno , December U The suloido ol
"Dr. Fordiuanrt Do Castro" in Nownrk ,
N. J. , on Sunday , attracted a peed deal
of attention in Chicago , both because
tie waa at nno time well known here and
also because ho loft hia remains to the
Chicago Medical College for purposes of
dlsaoctiou. In none of the published
accounts of the nlTAir which have ap
peared no far has the "Doctors'
real history boon ilvon. Mr.
A. T. Spencer , feeling keenly
the poeitlon in which the "Do Caatro'
children , who are Dr. Sponcor'o Brand-
children , have boon placed , hnn refused
to throw any ll ht on the eubjcct < * f the
Buicldo'n early hlo. Two nephews of "Do
Castro" hafo boon found. They arc Otto
and Fritz Gollornp , very. intclllgoni
young men , and carry on business nt 70
North Clark street. It oooms that "Dr.
Ferdinand Do Castro's" real name wn :
Ferdinand Kaatrup. Instead of being
an * Italian count , n Spanish nobleman or
any other nabob , ho could really only
lay claim to being the sou of n very respectable
spoctablo and very wealthy D. nlah mer
chant , who did nn cxtcnaivu business h
Copenhagen. Ho gave hia son a goot
common school education , and also BOH
him to college. After finishing his
education Fordirand spent several years
at homo. Ho had all the money
ho wanted to spend. Finally his fathoi
started him out with a pocket full o ;
money , and the young man for several
yean engaged in visiting nearly every
country on the face of the globo. About
the year 1805 , when young Kastrup wns
something like 30 years of ago , ho oamo
back to Copenhagen. Atorriblo opldom
io in the nature of cholera was raging ir
the city. The people , surrounded on all
aides by dead and dying , gave themselves
up to the gloomiest forebodings , for they
thought the city would bo depopulated.
The fertile brain of Ferdinand Kaatrup
seized on the occasion to got his name
prominently mentioned , and , as it after
wards turned out , to feather his own
nest. Ho sought an audience with the
king of Denmark , which was
granted. The young man olo-
luontly presented to his majesty the
terrible condition of his subjects. Llo
urged on him the necessity of starting
aomokind of popular amusement thai
would turn the thoughts of the people
from the terrible epidemic. The king
fell in with the idoa. Kautrap's schema
was to cot up an ethnological museum 01
Fair. llo urged that as ho had sponi
years in travel and had visited all na
tions , ho could , from the knowledge
gained about the Inhabitants of foreign
lands , present a correct living picture of
their mode of drees and manner of life.
The king consented , and though youmj
Kaslrup furnished some of the cash , his
majesty gave the most of it. Aftora.few
months' hard v.-ork , Knstrup opened the
museum. It was a Bucccaa frotr
the beginning. The people ol
Copenhagen Hocked to it
and money poured Into the treasury.
Kastrup handled all the funds , and at its
oloso suddenly disappeared from the city
with every cent of cnah. It amounted to
thounandsand thouaanda of dollars. With
his ill-gotten gains ho came to America ,
llcro ho spent the money lavkhly , enact
Ing the role of a foreign nobleman , am
lived in the height of splendor. In 1870
his father died , leaving him ? 30,000 ,
Kaatrup wont to Copenhagen , accurcv
the money and married a lady of excel
lent birth. Then coming back to America
ica ho ia next hoard of in Waukcgan , III.
whore ho purchased a splendid frul
farm , calling it "Martha's Orchard , '
after hia wife. Mr. Paul Gollorup , fatho
of the young men who furnish tills
history , had an interest In the
farm. Kaatrup entertained in an extrava
gant innnnor. Daring this time his wife
died and the widower became a suitor
for the hand of Miss Sponcnr and sub
sequently married hor. Kaatrup ran
into debt and disappeared , leaving Gel
lorup to pay the scorn. The Gollorups

Ho had never studied incdiolno , but his
natural ability enabled him to build up a
fine practice. As ho had done before ,
however , ho ran into debt and again dis
appeared. Thu Golloriips hoard that

him until they read the account of the

five Innuuaxi'a and was a line musician.
Aa an iiluKtration of hia unlimited con
fidence in himself , it is. related of him
that oncn when in attendance at a select
party in Mllwaukuo ho boaitod of hav

really ho had only a smattering of
Italian. llo waa immediately asked to

a common Danish peasant's ditty. AB
none of the company know either Italian

A few days before Thanksgiving Mr.

few days with social merriment. Oil last
Thursday Mrs. Sauivdors felt better than
she had for yearn , owing probably to the
accnaiou nnd the joyous Burroundiuga ,
but more especially to the fact that her
husband was unusually joyoua , oven for
him with his genial flow of spirits. Nuxt
day , however , there was a reaction. She
felt ill , and she rcaoived , with the agree
ment of her husband , to return to hot

tow social calls. But on the afternoon
of Friday the invalid grotr BO ooriouoly il !

occupied by the dead body. lie tried to

band promised to go ont with him for n

returned Into in the evening , and going
up to the room stayed there all nlghi
without interruption from thoao who
respected hla grief.
Early on Sunday morning u lady of the

go to a warmer room and to partake ol
refreshment ? . no was rational , but
taciturn.
In answer at length to her repeated re
quests , ho said : "Leave mo alone and
shall go down in a few moments. "
Satisfied with this promise , reluctantly
given , the lady loft the room , but had
not dcscondod more than half n dozen
stops when she was startled by the loud
report of a pistol. She returned , flung
open the door and shrieked loudly at the
terrible acono before her. The deceased
