Instead of * die ordlnaiy dressing rooms. Ostend was the first Place to use the little individual houses on wheels, into which the. Intending bather, goes to disrobe and don his or her bathing salt The bouse Is then wheeled out in the water by a horse driven by a man employed for that purpose. The steps dre let down ftom the Uttle house, and tbo bather enters the' Water without having to prome-- hade over the sand. At ftp end of the bath the-bather mount* the steps into his little bouse and, calling the driver again, has his dressing room hauled up high and dry on*tbe ahc-re, where, bnv- ing dressed at hls ^tetetire, be leaves the key with an attendant and goed on his way. The bathing costumes seen at Ostend are noted for their scanti ness, the striking peculiarity of which, however, lies to the fAct that, the shits woni by the women: rarely, h ’ eter,' have any skirts otta^wd to them, ev erybody—men, women and children alike-wearing tigbt fitting- suits, the suit* furnished* by in^st of the public LITRE STORIES; . „ j .. •- A BRIP^ IjOOT.V | A story of more than the usual amount of “human interest’’ was told 1>y ■’• a drnmm’er at the Staart’Hoolkv on* Sin£ 1 day afternoon* It seems that he went' 1 up to MOWJliJU .tipT,',T. &Gr, • Saturday in- compimy will* a ..proepec- tive bridegrohm, 'whose' ? he.trf' was -Ob bubbling over with joy at'’.the ’.prospect of his nuptials .which, were io he solemn ised on.that-.day, tliat hatdot everyone in the car ilito his oonftdenro, and was overwhelmed with congratulations.

That Sometimes Afecti Track Men. ’The numerous fatal accidents report ed in the newspapers to rail layers that occur every year on the various rail road systems throughout the country are not In every case due. tf ia gen erally supposed by the public, to neg ligence or carelessness on the frart of the workers themselves.” said .0 New York physician and surgeon employed by the New York Central railroad. “The fact is, the hearing of these men in time becomes affected owing to the constant stooping pdsitUMi which they are obliged to assume in laying the rails, patting the bolts in, etc., and that renders them often oblivions, to approaching trains, notwithstanding the fact that they work In' gangs and have lookout men near at hand; Art- Other fact which Ts'accountable lt» many instances for fatal accidents to rail layers is what is known among the men themselves ns ‘engine trance.' This 1 might describe inorc clearly as a temporary sort of paralysis which aft fects siraulfaneously both the mind and budy. The ‘stroke* lasts only a few seconds, but those few soconds mean life or death when a fast train Is approaching. . */1 “A rail layer who may be in perfect physical condition is hot proof against the powerful fascination as he gazes along the rails and sees an engine with its row of riirs coining toward him at express speed. Although be lias been warned by the lookout and the shouts of his fellow^-of the ; approach ing danger, he will ipay no heed, hut stand spellbound for ah Instant- And that inshtot’a delay 1s generally fatal, or, if not Jt results in the amputation of a leg. . , ‘♦There are few rail layits who have not. they will tell you. experienced this peculiar trance at; pne. tlme^or another during their careers on. the track. An! mals are also subject to ‘engine trance.’ particularly dogs atul cats, and that no doubt accounts to some extent for- the Iar^e number of them as well as other animals that are killed on the railroad.’* —New York Times. .
