In Cleveland, the friends of temper
ance met previous to the late charter
election, and nominated an indepen-
dent temperance ticket for city officers.
The meeting was an enthusiastic one.
The election for mayor resulted as fol
lows Clark, republican, 1861 Buhrer,
democrat, 6541 Abbey, Temperance,
1919.
From western exchanges we learn
that in Illinois and other states, total
abstinence men are organizing political
parties of their own, and the "signs of
the times predict that places other
than Cleveland may be governed by
men OF correct views and true princi
pies. The question of total abstinence
will have to be met and decided at the
ballot-3ox.

Nothing can be more devoid of inter.
est to the average audience than con :
test between Time and Muscle. That
people have learned this ia ct was evin-
ced last evening in the paucity OF
the attendance at the Empire Rink
New York, to witness Walter Brown
run velocipede against the old man
with the scythe. For tame amuse
ment, nothing could be commended to
exceed this Mounted, on velocipede
sat the muscular oarsman, arrayed in
hesh-colored skin fitting tights, tread
ling the apparatus for dear life, and
making circuit after circuit round the
hall. The affair did not carry with it
one particle of interest beyond some
admiration for Browns endurance. Ii
Brown had driven his "velos. over a
straight stretch of so miles, certain y
some enthusiasm would have been
manifested at the close, which was not
the case at all last evening. The dis
lance Brown went over was computed
to be 50 miles, and elaborate figuring
like this was proof of it His driving
wheel measured 43 inches III diameter,
and covered space each revolution of
say IL feet at this rate, about $40 rev.
olutions carried him mile, %, $40
would complete so miles, and Brown
would pump the treadles 81, $50 times.
As good and true men kept accurate
count, and were careful not to miss
anything, Walter succeeded in beating
Time ''all hollar'' Brown really is,
nevertheless, prodigy on the veloci'
pede, and it is not likely that his equal
can be found at present among the
whole range range ofriders. His aver
age time to mile being 300, and the
number of miles being so, for which he
was allowed 5 hours, it will be seen was
superabundance OF spare minutes Il
was D. M when Brown started anc
the race was declared finished at 9:40.

ST. LOUIS, April 27.

A Sioux City special dispatch says
the first reports about the sinking and
explosion aud loss of life on the steam
err Urilda above that city, were grossly
exaggerated. The boat was loaded with
discharged soldiers coming from the
forts along the Upper Missouri. When
so miles above Sioux City she struck a
snag and sunk in II feet of water. No
one was lost, the troops and . crew all
getting ashore safely.

Within four days the Pacific Rail-
road will be completed. Such are the
few and simple words in which the dis
patches announce the greatest stride
yet taken toward reducing the Cont
nent to the uses and control of its in
habitants. The grand work has been
marred in many ways and it is yet far
from the state in which the Govern
ment and the country had right to
expect that it would be placed when
its long-looked-for opening should oc.
cur but the important fact remains
that, by the end of this week, O chain
of unbroken railroad communication
stretches from the Atlantic Ocean,
across tho Alleghanies, Mississippi
Valley, the Plains, and the Rocky
Mountains, to the Pacific.

fire, involving losses OF $50, 600 or 100000, oc-
CURED about quarter after two O'Clock yesterday
morning, at the Hamilton Flour Mills, situated at
the Atlantic dock and embracing Nos. II to %. The
fire was first discovered by Thomas Martin, the
miller, who said 1t originated behind the chimney
on the fourth floor Of the stores He called
up the engineer, Henry Biglow, but the
flames had gained so much progress that
they found 1t Impossible to eXtnguish them The
alarm was Immediately given but considerable time
elapsed before the fremen managed to get streams
on the burning structure. In the meantime the
breeze which prevailed accelerated the flames, and
they extended from one part Of the structure to
the other threatening q more disastrous conhagra-
tion than what occurred. Captain Hart, with the
police boat, soon appeared and put on some power
iul streams, which helped to check the Aames. The
mills were owned by Mr. Abner GTeenleaf, VINO estl-
mates his loss at from $6O,000 to $70,0OO. Mr..
Greenleaf has an insurance on his property Of
$42, 900 III various companies.
Fire Marshal Ready had several employees at the
mills before him yesterday, and they stated that
they believed the fire to have been OF accidental
origin. The miller who first discovered 1t thinks 1t
occurred from the heat OF the chimney. The en-
glneer stated that when he first saw 1t the flames
were breaking out from behind the chimney, so there
appears to be little or no doubt as to the manner in
