TU' . .DIGSTINGUISHED EDITOR. iubr~ of George W. Chlids, the Phliadel phia Phianthropist. i tMr. Childs was born in Baltimore May i s- 18t.oI so he 1s now 63 years old, though 10 would easily pass for a man ten years ,o anger. Of his boyhood he says in his itee tl pblished recollections: 4I*t - h aid thatI am a sUnooessful man; if ee lwe mysueyeseto industry, temperance b ad ftgalimty. I wua self-supporting at an sarly ae, in my twelfth year. When school e dismised for the summer I took the plaseibf errand boy in a book store at Balti moe, at a.alary of $2 per week, and spent the vaationian hard work. And I enjoyed It. I ave never been out of employment; always found ismething to do, and was always eager to do it, and I thine I earned very sent of my drst money." e was eduested in the private schools of his native eity, and having entered the F \any at the eage of 13, remained fifteen 'onth at Norfolk. But he didn't like it had mntered a book store in Philadelphia, where he learned the business. Here he made the aoquaintance of book buyers and t publishers and laid the foundation for a 0 lifelona friendship with sach men as the ,Harpers, Lippincottse. Putnams, Ticknors, n Field4 Appletons and others. t In his "Recollections" Mr. Child goes on to say that when he first went to work in Philad61phia he was at the store early in She morning. He washed the pavement and e pat things in order before breakfast. In winter he madehe e fire and swept the store. He attended anction sales of books on eve nanel, and in a few months he was familiar with the literature of the day. He carried his ewn bundles, brought packages of books Pas wheelberrow to the store, and he says hat to-day he has never outgrown the wholesome habit of doing thins directly Had in order. He would as lief carry a Sundle up Chestnut street from the Ledger _~ac as he would when a boy. B1 the time he was 18 he had saved money enough'to so into business for himself, and heop ened a modest store in the Ledger building, which he now owns. Even in te those early days he was beard to say: "Some day I shall own the Public fLedger." 'I Mr. Childe' first inportrant business rvn- V tares were with the book publishing firm of Peterson & Coimpany, afterwards styled ja Childs & Peterson. His first great hit was the publication of Dr. Kane's arctic exploration. The ven erable experts in the business predicteda failure for young Childs, bu the lad weae more than sagacious--he was wise. He knew that ?'hiladelphia had sent Dr. Kane " to the arctic regions to search for the re mains of the lFranklin party, and he was aure that everybody would want to read hbout that fearful search amid the terrors of the North Pole. The largest New YoL k publishing house only gave a small order for the book, hut in a few days they cent for 5000 copies. Within a year the firm n paid Dr. Kane a copyright of nearly $70,OU0. The d.otor wanted to write only a sacientiticd acount of the expedition in search of tiir John Franklin, but Mr. Childs made it a popular na:rative. Herein Mr. Childs showed his good joudment and knowledge of what the public wants to read. In 1863 Mr. Childe retired from the pub lishing business and purchased the Public Ledger. 'his was the dream of his youth, and it was fully realized. ,, that time the war ran white ipaper up to exorbitant flig ures. The Uaper alone in many of the dailies cost more than thsy sold for when prinsed. The price of the Ledger had seen s a penny. It had a large adve;tisement ; tronage, yet it was loslng at the rate of 9150,000 a year. Against thu advice of ex perienoed journalists Mr. Childs doubled Ia the price of the paper and advanced the advertising rate to a profitable figure. Mr. Childs says, of course, there was an instant and not inconsiderable falling off of pat ronage, but the Ledger was an established t institution, having for twenty years been the reoognized medium of communica tion between employers and employed, be tween buyers aand sellers, landlords and tenants, bereaved families and their friends. To many people it was a nesces- F sity. The basiness that was temporarily T lost soon came back again, and at the end of a month the public was reconciled to the heqae, and from that day to this the cir- a eslatlon and advertisiag have increased. Mr. Childs has made the Ledger one of the great psapers of the country. He has done more than that. He has made it clean, Sssmpartial-a model of high toned aliam. For over a quarter of a con . It has fulilled its mssiton, giving the ussa ma and the family a paper saga eas a enrate, painstaking, whose state St- eon always be relied upon, whose S# c U Ie often remarkable, and whose omlasan eotatla nothing that is impure or bv In polities it has always been timeMr. Chllds had thoroughly Sh Ledge as typical Ameri- b :O e t bat me, Iirlai oriý and uti l& oil extret from their eorresponudenl h iu, ir a moat interestnla teature in his book. It may be maid of Mr. Childs that both at home and abroad he has had the fiiendship and cofldence of representative men, hbtause the alin of his life hsa been tor the highest and the beat. The bat newspapers, the bat books, the beit waork en ad the hIghest wadeI have beea his motto. A good man's tame preceda blm everywhere. Mr. Uhilds requirs o latro duction in America or in Europ. states men, prime ministers, members of cabi nets, bishops and archbishops abroad, say ing nothing of our own illustrious men, have been his guests. When Mr. Childs visited England in 1868 the first letters to reach him bore greetings from Charles Dickeun-"Weleome to Eng land." When he took his departure Charles Dickens clasped his hands and said: "Good by, God bless youl" and the tears were in his eyes. Among Mr. Childs' many rate and invaluable autographs, manuscripts and historical souvenirs ate pages of "Our Mutual Friend" in Dickens' own hand writing. Mr. Child. has given away fortunes for the well-being of others, he has relieved the needy, he has deemed that the laborer who worked for him was worthy of more than his hire, he has contributed liberally to all deserving charities, he has built costly and beautiful monuments to honor the memory of great men and noble deeds. In his "Reminiscences" he tells neus: "If asked what, as the result of my experience, is the greatest pleasure in life, I should say doing good to others." And he adds this pregnat comment: "Being generoas grows on one just as being mean does. ' he disposition to give and to be kind to others should be inculcated and fostered in children. It seems to me that is the way to improve the world and make happy the people who are in it." It is well known that he built a fountain to the memory of Shakespeare at Stratford on-Avon; that he caused to be placed in Westminster abbey memorial windows to Herbert, Cowper and Milton. He caused a monument to be placed over the previously unmarked grave of Leigh Hunt in Kensal Green; he rendered a similar service to the memory of Edgar Allen Poe; he was also the largest subscriber for a memorial win dow to Thomas Moore in the church at ]rowham, where Moore and "Bessie" are buried. In 186(8 he gave to the printers of Philadelphia, Woodlawn, and heendowed it with a liberal fund for keeping the grounds in order. As a citizen and family man Mr. Childs bears the most enviable reputation. In town he lives in a brownstone palace in the most desirable portion of the city. In the country he has spent fortunes with Mr. Drexel in building model houses with parks and groves amid the loveliest of Pennsylva nia's historic regions. Every known im provement for health, comfort and pleasure has been introduced in these ideal country seats. Perfect drainage, gas, water, steam heat, libraries, schools, churches and mag nificent drives and boulevards have esrung up as if by magic at Wayne. St. David a, on the Pennsylvania railroad, about fifteen miles northwest of Philadelphia. Mrs. Childs is a granddaughter of Judge John Bouvier and her mother, the wife of Robert E. Peterson, M.D., the publisher, wrote treaties on astronomy that were praised by Sir John Herschel and Lord aosse. Mrs. McCarter is Mr. Child's niece, and Mr. McCarter is a lawyer. Miss Peterson is also a niece. Go to The ire Hive for bargains in ladtes' misses' and children's hosiery and underwear.

THE WORLD ,ON WHIESI Trouble in Electing a Chairman of the Western Passenger Assoolatlon. 0Qe W. Rlatine and J, .. F..thorr the Men in the Lead. Various Little Boad in Callfornta-Larger Runs for Looeinetivea-Rtatea for Shippers. The Western Passenger association was in session all day last Wednesday trying to elect a chairman, There had been no can ncusing or informal voting in advance of the meeting. and conseqaently the mem bers assembled without much knowledge of one another's preference. When the first ballot was counted it showed that about a dozen different men had been voted for. As a unanimous vote is necessary to elect. the outlook for an early settlement of the question was regarded as anything but ean counraging. Twenty.three ballots were taken at the morning session. The last one showed fourteen votes for George W. Iistine, late manager of the Erie Dispatch, and four for J. N. Faithorn, the present chairman of the Southwestern Railway and Steamship association. As the afternoon session twenty ballots we.e taken, and then, as there seemed to be no immediate prospect of an election, an adjournment was taken. On the last ballot seven votes were east for Ristine and eleven for J, R. Buchanan, general passenger agent of the Sioux City & Pacific road. Buchanan was the only passenger man who received any considerable number of votes. He is very popular, and there are those who think he will yet be elected. On the other hand not a few are of the opinion that the final choice will be between George W. Ristine and J. N. Faithorn, and that the one who is defeated will simply be reserved for the chairmanship of the Trans-Missourai sso ciation. Both are more familiar with passenger than f. eight affairs, but they are experienced commissioners, and that is the strongest argument in their favor. It was auggested that the duties of the' ofiMce be turned over to Chairman A. F. Walker, of the Western Traffic association, but it was soon apparent that some of the roads were unalterably opposed to such an arrange ment, and it is not likely that the proposi tion will be renewed. CURIOUS LITTLE ROAD. A Fourteen-itle Ratlroam In California That Is a study. A curious little railroad train goes orawl ing up and down the mountain from Tree I Pinos to Burt's lime kiln in the Gavilan range, San Benito county. every day. It is probably the strangest railroad that was ever seen; yet, thus far, not a word has ever been printed regarding it. The train moves on a curious single track and is drawn by an engine set low on it. Both the engine wheels and those which support the cars have a single, pivot-like piece of steel that sets In the slot track, for it most be borne in mind that the track has a slot in it not unlike that seen on a cable track. In addition to this, each wheel has a flange on each side of it, so that it can not get off the track, no matter how abrupt the curves. The road, as completed, is now nine miles long, but when pushed through as intended it will be fourteen miles in length. 'Three men run it. These consist of an engineer, a fireman and a brakeman. In one place there is an 800-foot grade mounted at the rate of six feet to the 100, yet the engine puffs right along with three loaded cars, not an the least bothered in any way. There is one grade a quarter of a mile long in which an average of four feet is I gained to the 100. One curious thing about is that the wheels are in a s,,nse rollers. T'hey reach from one side to the other. The flanges hold them on, assisted by the pivot past which each half of the wheel comes down. LONGER RUNS THESE DAYS. Locomotives Go 300 Where They Former Went 100 Miles. A number of the large systems of rail ways are lengthening the runs of locomo tives on their lines. and where engines have been run 100 miles they are now run 300. Mechanical men are watching the experi ment with a good deal of interest, especial Ly on the Pennsylvania lines, where it is proposed to make but one change in loco motives between Chicago and Jersey City. Many question the expediency of the change. C. C. Gale, who for fourteen years was superintendent of the Bee Line, and a I very practical railroad man, used to say that a locomotive was like a man, and to I ran it over 100 miles a day was bad policy and too wearing on the engine. George Prescott, superintendent of motive power of the Vandalia, takes the position that no engine should be run a greater distance I than an engmineer can run it without over- I taxing himself, he thinking it unwise to ] shift locomotive engineers from one elrgine to another, running eight or ten different - engines in one week. LAIRGE AND SMALL SIHIPPERS. The Opiniaon Growing That the FormerI lVill Get Rates. If the railroad has the right to sell its services at wholesale cheaper than at retail in the matter of passenger traffic, why may it not in the matter of freight traffic? This role has all along to some extent been rec agnized. For instance, carload lots of one kind of freight from one consigner to one consignee. also lots of less than a carload of the same merchandise between the same points of carriage, and likewise solid car load lots. though not of the same kind, but of the same character of merchanodise--all these have hitherto below the charge to the retail shipper. 1But the rulings ef the inter statle commalsion have without exception tended to wipe out differences and not to give the targe shipper any advantage over the small shipper. It is not unlikely, there tore, that the supreme court decision will lead to important changes in railroad tar ifle; and within the requirement that dif ferences must in every case be reasonable, the supreme court rule recently seems to be not only the wiser, but to conform to the requirements of merchants and manu factlrurers, and indeed of all classes of traders. One on the Passenger Me n. A story is going "he rounds on E. A. Whitaker, of the Minneapolis & St. Louis railway, that is two good to keep.

Ed managed to hold an excited waiter long enough to be served. As he sat there eating, he saw men, women, policemen, everybody, running wildly down Roberts street. He got in terested, then dazed, then wildly excited, jumped up, grabbed his hat, and as he rushed wildly up the street said, 'By gosh!
