THE Philadelphia Bulletin finds it nee
essary to get after the street railroad
companies of that city for almost pre-
cisely the same reason as the LEDGER
had to write up the street railway mo-
nopoIy Of this city. The Bulletin says:
ut is remarkable with what pertinacity
some of the street railway companies
strive to shirk their obligations and to
defy the law. They complain that public
sentiment is against them and that they
are unfairly treated By the press, and
yet il they can sneak out of the per.
Torrance of their duties to the public.
they do so almost invariably. Nj. Bald.
win, the chief commissioner of high
ways, in his letter to the president Of
the Tenth and Eleventh Street Com
pany. shows that the company has paved
in q proper n the space between
its tracks, the portion Of the street that
it uses, and has done the remainder Of
the work verr badly. He declares also
that it did precisely the same thing last
year. Ris demand that the street shall
be repaved ia 3 proper name will be
strongly approved BY The public. If it
is not needed by the company, he will be
justified il he will stop the running Of
the cars during the whole period that
may be requils ed by him to put the street
in good order ct the company's cost
Nobody will suffer great Inconvenience
if the cars are stopped foe 0 month, for
the neigbboriug lines will aceoamOdate
tue public. The company has behaved
in such a manner that it deserves 10
consideration and no mercy"

THE jetty Improvement at the mosth
of the Mississippi does not Gil the
measure Of Captain Eads' ambition to
be useful. He has a plan for improving
the channel Of the Mississippi river from
Cairo down TO the gulf. by which twenty
Eve feet OF water will be secured all the
year round, and lands liable to be sub
merged will be placed Far above overflow,
thus doing away with the proposed levee
system, which is Estimated to cost S44..
100000. Eads' plan is to bring the river
to an approximate width between Cairo
and Red river. It varies between these
points from 5000 to 1000 feet in width
Whe-e it is wide the current is NOR,
sluggish and sediment deposited in tb,
shape Of sand-bars. The reduction o
these vide places will increase d
velocity of the current and make it uni
form with the current 10 the narrower
localities. Captain Eads thinks sny at
tempt to strAighten the river would b.
disastrous as well as exceedingly expen
sive. His planseems to be simply tn,
application OF his now successful iett,
system to about 800 miles of the Missis
sippi river. He is confident that by thi
method the Mississippi river littOra
wolld be entirely lifted above overflow

End Of "A Texan Bully.

az A AAAAAkk SAANAANANHA
A correspondent writing from Tusca
rors, Nevada, says: at 4 a m. April
10th, Tuscarora witnessed its second
shooting match. Il appears hat two
men, John Hogan, the boss gambler Of
the town, and a Texas chap, a late arr
val here, whose name is ADAM, we're
playing casino in Woods saloon on
Weed street, the stakes being 81 80 a
side for o game Of twenty one points.
They commenced gambling early in the
evening, and between the games the
Texan drank freely. Finally, in the
middle Of the last game, Adams bet
Hogan 81 that be (Adams) would win
the game Hogan won the game and
Adams declared there was cheating, an
assertion that the former denied. Then
Adams stepped from his chair on top OF
the card table, and drawing from his
pocket a dangerous looking six shooter,
cried, I'm chief Of the human race and
a fighter straight from hell" He brand
ished the pistol, while Hogan tried to 10.
duce him to be quiet aud come down
from the table. He did step down, and
cooked his pistol at Hogan, who said,
1t that's your play III call you"
Then quickly pulling out a s~elf.eoeking
revolver, be fred two shots in rapid sue
cession at the Texan, who rushed into
the street, crying, I'm shot all to
pieces" He did not return the fire, and
upon examination it was found that the
last shot took effect in the left shoulder
close to the arm. His pistol was empty
( and to all appearances had never been
loaded, His wound was pronounced a
dangerous one.
