()n^ of the wornler* ^f ^^^^ Adirondack*^U a |^irubli^ railroad on tbo road from^B.^onville la ilie Fulton chain of Mates.^The railroad, which i^ only eight mile*^leas. U entirely built of loft, errn t.. Mm^mils, over which a *n)ali dummy engine^and oue pa^^*iii.er car, ra|^uhle of aceoin-^modalmg twenty-lire passengers, make*^two tri|w daily.
Theroad it right in the heart of tin^treat Adirondack forest. It baa done a^thriving bu*inew tin* summer, aa many^tourist* have gone out of their way for the^a^|^re^i |^in^'^^^ of aeeine :t and ei|ieri-^ancinftiM novelty of riiling- over it. it^usually tak^ ^ nil hour and a half la m i).,^tin- trip from Mi^om^ river to Minnehaha,^from one end of the roail to the other, a^distance of light mile*. This is consid^^ered ra|^id lr.msi^ hy the officials, und^such good time is only mado under llie^uioat farorahlecireuawtaiicea.
Kecentlythe railia had deluged the^country and threatened to float the rail-^roads and r--iliiifcr slock into Moose river^^lid off down s!r.'*m. The w^*len rails^bad lieeii thoroughly aatiinlod with water,^ami were wet an.I slip|^'0'. Win-never a^alight nidinfi was reached the train in^^variably was stalled, anil the conductor,^who also acted in the capacity of ula'ion^agent, brakeman, switchman, and tin^^man, was accustomed to invite all hands^loi:^ i..111 and put their sh uldera tu tin^Wheel and pusli tin tram up hill.
ForIbis privilege the p.i^M.iigors paid^fl an I hail 11^' ple.i^ ire .^( 1 .ding free. Af^^ter one of these very anlu us spell, of^pushing an eigln-ton engine and pa-M-n-^fer-ear up a heavy grade the paaaengers^emtiarked and the conductor pleasantly^remarked that ^it was plain sailing now^the rest of tht journey.
Scarcelyhad the engine traversed KCi^feet when a hound owned by a eportsmaii^one of the few |^asseugrra alward.aeellU-d^deer tracks, and jumping from the train^look to the woods. As the hound was a^valuable atiinml the owner of it insisted^tbat the train should he atomicd nnd all^bands turn out anil search for him.
Atfirst then- was a feeble protest, hut^the owner of the dog carried the day. The^train was stop|*^d and all hands joined^Dim 111 pursuit of the brute. It required^Jast one hour and ten mnuiies to recover^the hound, ami then the engineer impa^^tiently whistli-d all hands alHiunl. For the^ninety-second tune the tram was under^Way again. This time she succeeded in^traversing _i^^ feet, when -'lap!
What'sthe matter nowshouted a^big man with a very' red nose. Nothing^only the forwanl truck of tho paasenger^ear had jurii|Msl lint track. Agaiu all the^lianils disembarke! and after an hour's^limiting, tugging, sweating, and shouting,^MM . ^ Med in righting lb* derailed truck.^The Limited axpri on the Fulton Chain
railro.nlmada the trip mail day in some^^thing less than live hours. So much for^traveling in the Adirondarks.

Apoliceman on the north side is in it^tlili iiiina, says tl,, I'hie.igo 'in' .... II.^U between two lire* and has re|h^rnd th.^rase to hi* captain, who is having some^fun with him, although the bobby doesn't^know it. The captain's story is as fol^^lows :
1he officer sent me wonl that he^wanted to see me on private business and^of course I told 111111 to come right in. He^closed the door and stated his case, flu^bis lieat are a devilish hoy and a young^lady, each a member of a tlrst-elaaa, high-^toned family. The young lady'* weak^^ness cori-ists 111 taking ri all lie -f i^^kittens ili.it come Mbam her MMM, si,,^bus brought Up several successfully ami
Ithose that have died under her treat^^ment have received can ful sepultun1.^A running Maltese was her 1 ileal and she^wa* tiniisnally attentive to it. T, i^doesn't like raata. Hoys narar do. The^only use a !^^^^ I . ^ lor.^ cat is to worry it.^This hoy's father is having his house^painted red and of course the painters^doing the jcl^ leave their p unt op the^gmuiiil over night. I*bs other afternoon^the v made this discovery and of course^the first thing lie thought of was thai here^wa* his chance lo make his mark. Sin^^gularly enough, at that moment the Mal^^tese |n I of the young lady was prowling^'slowly o'. r the lea.' The sight of the cat^the discovery of the |stint and the rcaolu-^tlon to do something rushed oh the hoy^simultaneously. It i^ pot likely that^be formed any logical plan lo^not feet his scheme. He wouldn't^have been a bay if ho had. Hut^if he had it would have been some^^thing like this: 'If I am going lo make a^success ..f ilns thing I'll take the cut in^with inc.' He sci/^ il the cat atld beg in to^streak it with red. I he job didn't suit^him, so he chin ked it Into tat pot of paint^up to its ears, pulled it out and turned it^loose. It slnick for home, of course. The^young lady bad the usual contortions^which a sight of this sort would naturally^produce.^ She would never have known^the cause of it, however, if the lioy hadn't^met her one day ami said, a* he shut hi*^eye, 'That kitten ,.f yours has lieeii |^allll-^in' the town red, ain't if ^ The policeman^oil that l^eai has been notilied, and he^doesn't know what to do. He says'the^two families are such foine |k'o|^h^. and^he would rather I'd change his boat thin^evuipcl him lo take a hand ill the uffair.'
