Show FOREIGN RAILWAYS. Some Striking Points In Which They -t Hit-- . er From Oursi After the freedom of an American rail way train, telscoped so as to be one long,' magnificent corridor, the English train, which persistently reminds one of a row of little coops set on wneeis, ' strikes the traveler as being primitive i and preposterous. ' American that true It is probably travelers make a practice of poldng fun at the English railway grains, for as soon as the conversation with an Englishman gets around to the subject of railways he hastens to say that the trains in the 6tates are doubtless hand somer, but that the British system is best adapted to the needs of English :. travel. It is a familiar saying in England that"only fools and Americans travel "firsti' class." , jT First-clas- s is high, and the' compart ',ment is more comfortable than that of Third-clas- s the second-clasIs counted good, enough by nine out of every ten travelers, even when there are women In the party. The third-clas- s compart ment is of the same size as the' other, but is more plainly, furnished, On the continent second-clas- s accom modations are good enough except In compartItaly, where even in first-clas- s ments are not always attractive.! A "circular ticket," such as. a.; travel: er usually buys, is a Ismail book,' each side being represented by ,a coupon.' These circular tickets are exceedingly convenient for any onel who has mapped out a definite line; of travel. He can stop almost anywhere along the route and resume his journey when he sees lit. The circular ticket Is cheaper than the accumulated fares would be, and if purchased at a tourist agency It 13, print ed in English as well as In the language of the country in which it is to b& used. Nearly all; travelers,' in Europe use either the Cook or Gaye tickets, t Only the most experienced travelers or those totally Inexperienced disdain the assistance furnished by the! tourist agencies. Some tickets, on the other hand, are 'models of simplicity and brevity, The Northwestern railway, controlling great lines of travel throughout the Brit ish Isles, sold a small bit of pasteboard which read: "From London to Queens-town.- " ? .

In the United States t ticket providing for these different line$ and permitting n a or more would .( have been at least a foot long.! The rule at any European statjon Is to show any ticket bef ore to the train platform. Usually the conductor or guard comes around and examines the tickets before the train starts. This is a happy provision for the foreigner who Is never dertain that he is aboard the right train. The conductor punches the ticket at the starting point and the ticket Is taken up at the desti nation. Everywhere in Europe the tram-ca- r and railway signals are given by the tooting of a horn. The.' conductor has a horn, every switchman has ' one and some of the superfluous ;men in uniform, who do heavy standing about at the sta Hons, carry them.

BOUTE1LHE AND HIS BOMB. The Tonne Man Who Committed the Outrage- - at' Rothschilds' Bank.' The man who threw the bomb at M. de Rothschild's bank in the Rue Lafitte, Paris, several weeks ago, is not an anarchist. He is one of those discontented individuals who consider that their talents ought to have raised them to high positions, and who neglect the humbler work they have before them. Marie Andre Victor Leon Bouteilhe-r-t- o give the criminal's name in full is the son of one of the "officers" of the commune.. He was educated at a Paris unheeded by his mother and sisters, andjthey experienced a great shock on hearing who. the perpetrator of the Rue Lafitte outrage was. One of Bouteilhe's PASTEUR was born in 'Dole, OUIS France, . in ; 1822, him- 'and devoted self during his entire ' life to the study of chemistry, medicine and ;the physical generally, : sciences gaining distinction as high ' an original investi achievefamous most His gator.

The theory of the treatment is practically Identical with mat of vaccina- tion'; in the! cure of smallpox. The patient or the person submitting to the treatment, is subjected to a hypodermic injection ofa small quantity of virus taken from' a rabid animal, generally a rabbit, and; usually suffers slight or no perceptible annoyance in consequence. In many cases where persons who have been bitten by rabid animals submitted to the operation, the disorder did not manifest itself or did not result ; v ; '; fatally. When this discovery was first an nounced it. as received with increduli-- , ty in many quarters, but the event showed that in many cases it was efficacious, and distinguishing honors were showered upon Prof. Pasteur, not only in France,, but in other lands. Pasteur Institutes were established in many places, and! humanitarians gave them substantial encouragement. M.
