THE ALL RAIL RUUTE.
Seme of the Changes and Improvements that Have Been Made,
The train service of the All Rail Live running between St. deservedly s0 popular with the travelling public has recently been much improved in order to meet the requirements of the Increasing passenger tratfic on this great thoroughfare. An arrangement bas been made by which two fast trains qil] run each way on week days between St. John and Beston during the coming winter, whereas there was only one traiu daily from Boston last winter.
The Flying Yankee, which leaves St. John at 6.25 a.m. and arvives in Boston at 9.25 p. m., is now made a solid train and will run tbrough without any change of cars, Passengers from Cape Bretou and Eastern Nova Scotia usually travel by this train, which in poiat of elegance and com- fort has nosuperior. The cars, coosistivg of firat and second class, baggage and
mails and parlorcar, are ali of the broad vestibule pattern, and tasteful- ly upholstered in plueh, heated by steam and illuminated like a
drawing room while travelling on the rail.
The Provincial Express so called on accountof the C. P. R., fast express from Halifax, will leave St. Joho at 4.30 p.m. arriving in Boston, at 7.25 pext morning.
The improved service to this train will
be found in the splendid colonist sleeping coaches which have lately been’ for jg the! benefit 3 of
second class passengers. They bave been fitted uy with cooking stoves furnished the same as those run on the trans-contineutal lines, and are run through each way wi\hout change. Klegaot Puilman sleepers are also run on thistrain. it certainly appears as ifthe managers of the All Rail Line are resolved that their patrous wiil bave all facilities and comforts possible to be ob- tained on an up to date railroad.

SUMMERVILLE NOTES,
The roads in this part of the conntry are in a very unpleasant condition, Owing to the recent cold snap.
What might have been a serious aeci dent happened a few days since, when Mr. D D. Eimonds was struck in the breast by a tooth from the concave of a threshir While he was attending the ebaker, and keeping the straw cleared awsy, a crash was heard and two teeth flew one of which struck him. Tbe other passed and lodged deeply in the door iromediately inthe rear. Had the tooth struck him
eondon “Uncle Sam,” as he is familia « ly known by all the children in the Fettiement, would have
likely gone to his last resting-place.
Mr. Wm. Cairns who fas been confined to bis house by a severe cold for some time, isout again. He intends going to British Columbia in the neartuture. We wish **Will” euccess.
Mr. Jas. Doyle, whose illness was reported some time ago, is much better and can sit up nearly all day. No doubt his friends wil] be glad to hear this.
Mr. Charlies McEachern may well be consiuered the smartest maa in this village. He bas already secured his nexs year’s wood and seven hundred rail-.
Mesers. J. Mahar, and M. Curran, also Miss Fraeer, have recently returncd to their homes here. The former gentlemen have been in Boston while Miss Fraser was on # visit to Halifax. Agnes look» well after ber trip.
Two things ae verv necessary in this locality, viz adaily mail and a ielephore I. would be an easy maver lo secure both these as they are within tbe short distance of three miles on either sice. The people of Summerviile s«hbould put their shoulders to the wheel and sirive to secure their j sat rights. By the way I would I:ke tne grad - ed schoo! to go ahead.

NAVAL CONSTRUCTION. High Engine and Fire Room Tempersa- tures on a Warship.
The great internal heat that rendered the Amphitrite inefficient was due to lack of provision for ventilation in “he engine and boiler spaces. These regions became so hot that little useful work could be done in them, and the lack of air was such as to actually ruin the fur- pace draft, smoke coming out freely from the holes in the furnace doors. Aside from two small ash hoist tubes in the central part of the fireroom and a small escape hatch forward, there werg no openings from the fireroom to the outer air.
The boilers reached nearly to the iron main deck of the vessel, and as the air above them and between the deck beams had no escape it became greatly heated and lay roasting in those spaces. It was impossible for a man to go on the grat- ings behind the upper parts of the boil- ers after they had been under steam a few hours, though the main and auxil- iary stop valves were there. A board of officers that reported on temperatures in the vessel got at this place only by in- troducing.a thermometer on the end of @ long pole, and this thermometer, when fished out and taken to a place where it could be read, showed 202 de- grees.
The superstructure containing the cabin and wardroom was directly above the engine and boiler rooms, with a light wooden floor laid over the iron main deck. ,At sea, with the doors closed, this habitation became exactly like a frying pan on a hot stove lid. The smoke pipe, partly uncovered for alleged ventilating purposes, passed through the center of the wardroom and by vigorous radiation contributed its full share to the general discomfort. The deck, in spite of its wooden sheath- ing, was so hot as to be painful, and 1 hesitate to say from memory the tem- peratures the board reported as being usual in the rooms, in bureau drawers, on the wardroom table and in other parts of the officers’ quarters. It was ar high as 112 degrees, and I think great- er. Sleep was only a period of uncon- sciousness, induced by utter exhaustion, and was without restful quality.
The fireroom temperature was never below 150 degrees and often abcve 170, while the engine room ranged closely about 150 degrees. For the first 24 hours the men stood it well, but on the second day seven succumbed to the heat and were put on the sick list, one cf them nearly dying. Before the voyage was ended 28 had been driven to seek medical attendance.
On the evening of the fourth day ont our men had literally fought with fire to a finish and had been vanquished. The watch on duty broke down one by one and the engines, after lumbering along slower and sJower, actually stop- ped for lack of steam. The ship was al- lowed to drift inshore on the tide and was finally brought te an anchor in St. Simon’s sound. Though a warship of formidable characteristics and sent on this distant service, it is doubtful if the Amphitrite could have gone into action at that time or have steamed 100 miles farther to save herself. —F. M. Bennett, U. S. N., in Cassier’s Magazine.
DOOLITTLE’S LITTLE JOKE.
How He Conferred an Honor Upon His Friend, Senator Fessenden.
The old senator was a great story teller and related many interesting and humorous accounts of what he had seen in public life. One of his favorite sto- ries was at the expense of Senator Fes- senden, @ warm personal friend. The judge and Senator Fessenden had been appointed on #commissicn, with several others, to treat with the various . chiefs of the Sioux Nation on an important In- dian question of the day. It was long before railways had been introduced into the far west, and the members of tbe commission had to travel on horse- back. Judge Doolittle was chairman of the commission, but at the conference shifted that duty to the shoulders cf Senator Fessenden. The latter was high- ly pleased at the honor conferred on hiin and much ‘*‘puffed up’’ in consequence. The judge had method in his madness, however, for he had heard of the pe- culiar reception tendered by the Indians to the spokesman of any paity of visit- ing whites.
At the appointed time the.two parties to the conference congregated. There were probably 200 Indian chiefs present, with their wives. Senator Fessenden advanced to do the honors for the com- missioners, when, to his dismay, the whole body of Indians, squaws and all, advanced and, after embracing the chairman, gave him, according to their custom, a welcoming kiss. Judge Doo- little often said he thought that Fessen- den never forgave him for the trick.— Boston Herald.
