IN A GREAT CITY.
Some of the Flying; Observation. 3!ad
by an Iterated Uallw ay Conductor.
He was an old man; the unoxx-s ol
inter were gatherinj; on !.. head and
liin beard was frosty, but lie looked
hale and heartv and had a frank, cour
ageous expression iu his eyes, seeming
to imply a determination to make tlie
best of tilings xxliicli won one's sx m
patliy, for he had evidently ecn Letter
days. He was a conductor on a Third
Axeiiue Klevatcd Kailroad train. It xva
xxith "time intention of comioliii; with
him that a Tribune reporter xvlio had
been croxvded out on tlie platform
opened a conversation by obserx inp;:
" A rather monotonous life, that of
a conductor, I should think."
" That depends on tlie conductor,"
cheerily replied the old man, "it is not
a monotonous life if one knoxvs hoxv to
use his eves and how to think about
what ho fices."
" I don't see how he finds much
chance for usinj; either exesor brains."
" Of course ou don't. It took me
some time to find out myself, lint 1
hare always believed that even- lot in
life has its compensations, and that of
tlie conductor is no exception. There
is no position. 1 mink, that j;tx-es one
such opportunities to tint! out hoxv peo
ple live I mean from tlie glimpses
one p'l of them through open win
dows as tlie train goes by."
"Then xou nmt make rapid observa
tions." j&"
"Of cour-e, but it is not hard aftx a
little practice to see a rreat deal in a
few seconds. Now, walking on the
-treet one can't get much of an idea of
xx hat people's homes are like, but one
get a very good idea by peeping into
their second and third story windows."
"I should like to knoxv something of
the impressions you have go, from
those glimpses."
"The most interesting scenes, of
course, are among the houses where
tlie poor people live. It is wonderful
xx hat difference there is in them. In
onie I can see a tire burning cheer
fully, the beds all neat and clean, chil
dren clean and contented looking out
of the windows a clean table-cloth on
the table xvhere the humble family sup
per is spread. When I see all that T
knoxv that some good woman is bless
ing a poor man's life. Perhaps in the
same block I'll seo a picture entirely
the reverse of this rooms dirty, beds
untidy, children unwashed, and often
tlie sound of strife between husband
and xvife making itself heard aliove tlie
din of the train. Then I think, God
help the children in such a home.
" One gets to feel quite an acquaint
ance with certain homes and certain
faces. Atone humble attic xxindoxv I
used often to see the face of a sxxeet lit
tle girl. There were a few pots of lloxx--ers
on the xvindoxx'ill and the little
girl used to tend them carefully and
they flourished finely. But after awhile
I missed the little face and I noticed
that the flowers were fading, fading
day by day. At Ia9t one day the flow
ers xvere all dead and withered then
as the train flashed by I saw a little
coffin being carried out of the door into
the street, and I knew then that my
little girl was dead. The empty tloxx--er-pots
still stand on that window-sill
and it always makes me feel sad to see
them."
Possibly it xvas the recollections of
some little one of his own who had
been, laid at rest long ago that gave
such a xvistful expression to the old
man's eyes, and to break the painful
pause tlie reporter hazarded the ques
tion: "What impresses xou most of
what you ee inside the cars,?"
"The selfishness of most of the men
and the lack of good manners. When
I see a big brawny fellow, or some
howling sxvell, who has nothing else to
do than to let the world knoxv in all
sorts of ways what a thoroughly use
less idiot he is, complacently sitting
doxvti while some poor, pale, feeble
working woman, who has been stitch
ing her heart out all day is forced to
stand, I xvish that the rules and regula
tions of the company permitted me tc
give him a public lesson in good mor
als. I think most people show at theit
worst xvhen'they are riding on the ele-x-ated,
as they often appear at theii
best in the peeps one gets of them iu
their homes." A". V. Tribune.
MEASURING TIME.
Knowledge That Kxplaln. the Secret 01
Sucre. In Many Things.
It is a great advantage to a man tc
be able to measure the power of time.
There are many tasks too great for the
moment, vv hich may, or may not, be
too great for a month or a year. Hap
py is he who knows from the start
vhat tasks it is hopeless for him tc
pursue, and what other tasks he max
hope to accomplish in a gix'cn time.
The art of measuring the power ol
time is one which every-' man can
learn, and one which he will be repaid
for learning. When one has attained
that familiarity with his own rate ol
working, that he can tell whether he
will not be able to do a given task in
fifty years, or whether he may except
to accomplish it in live, ho is in a po
sition to save himself much fruitless
labor, and to concentrate all his effort
upon what is actually practicable.
This is a large share of the secret ol
success in any sphere of working. S.

Wasiiixuion-, December 4. An Inter
esting statement has ln-en prepared by Third
Assistant Post master Cenenil Hazen, shoxv
Ing him far the postal revenues Indicate an
.ncrease of business throughout the country.
The statement, xxhich is made from special
returns covering the jierloil ft 0111 July 1 to
November a), is from ten of tlie largest
postothces, xxhich collect nearly thirty per
ii'iiL of the entire imstal revenue. It shoxxn
an hurease at these ten olhci's. as com
pansl xxith the corresmuiling iierio.1 of the
previous year in ordinary postal rev rune
(excluding revenue on second-class matter)
of ?.iO'.i,oj'.i, or nlniiit even i'r cent.
The increase, as slmxx 11 at the different
points, xxas as follows: New York, six' jht
cent., ( hlcago, eight percent.; Philadelphia,
six it cent: Huston, ten per cent.: SL
Louis, four ier lent.; Cincinnati, fourteen
jierctnt.: lirnoklyn. four and one-half s't

The Issue of siivial reijnest enxelojies to all

Suierx s ng Architect Hell, in his annual
report sajs there are now In course of con
struction fight x nexx buildings, ranging hi
cost from S2o 000 to S2,000,00o each, call
ing for a total exiK-nditiire of Ss,,-, 1x400.
'I he exeniiitiires tor the ear on this ac
count haxe aggregated j2,4'.s,70'J. The
architect rays that Congress fixes the HuilM
of cost of the sfxn.il buildings without a
full knowledge of Uie ncivuimcxl itlon re
qulred. and tint the limits iu man cases
are so low as to make It impossible to pro
x'de minimum accommodation, ex en though
the chcaiest materials lie Used.
He also calls attention to the luaileiiuate
appropriations nude for the projs'r prose
cution of xxork after it is commenced. The
remedies xxhich are suggested ale, that
before authorizing the construction of a new
building Congress should obtain from the
orlice an (Miniate of the cost of such a
building as xvould meet the requirements of
the public service. Appropriations he s.iys
vx mild lie then hi-ed on intelligent estimate-,
and the architect could make satisfactory
and advantageous contracts for the variou
branches of the wink within the limits of
cost Such a ionise would nsult 111 a huge
sav ing of miiiiev and greatly exIite the
work iisin buildings.
Attention is called to th erroneous im
pression of the public that the stoppage of
work iijH.ii public buildings 111 various plan?
is the fault of the dciartmcnt. ami the cim
sei iuenceisth.it severecrit cisiii is freipif'il!
passed iihii its management, xxhen. in fact,
the blame, the auh.lect saxs, should lie
placed on Congress where it proierly !
imigs The architect savs that ;y- long as
Congress ignores the depirtment in the
(assize of bills making appropr.ations fur a
building without considering its require
ments or ncessitn-i, so long xxill the present
system be exieiislve. The architect is ot
the opinion that no bill for the erection of
public buildings should In- passed without
first getting the approval of the Treasury
Department as to its necessity and an opin
ion concerning the amount to In' exnndeil
for the ground, approaches and finish of the
building complete.
'I he luiHirtaiice of liroiierly caring for,
repairing and pieserxing the Goxemmctlt
buildings is fievly set forth in the reiirt
and attention called to the ueccssitx of a
fuisproof building for the lilesof the Execu
live departments of the Gox eminent.
A statement of the present condition ol
each building imxx ill (ourseof construction
forms the I.Hly of the reimrt. together with
a full stattment of appropriations, and ex-I-eiulitures
with lecoininemlations in each
case

'Ihe announcement that Austria has in

Chamberlain concluded by saying that
