AN objection has been raised to The pro-

Hard Times for Railways.

SOME facts are gathered by the Chi
cago RailWay Age regarding the fore
closure of mortgages on American rail-
ways during the year just ended 1t
appears that the actual sales under
foreclosures cover 1875 miles of road,
with bonds and debt of S119, 93S. 700,
and capital stock of S79,045, 700. The
capital stock is practically rendered
valueless by foreclosure, and mortgages
later than the first generally 90 the
same way, so that it is probable that
the proceedings recited above involve q
net loss of not less than 800, 900, 900.
In addition to this, there have been or
dered sold, but not yet brought to the
hammer, 1883 miles of road, with
S12S, 1888, 400 of bonds and floating debt,
and 1926, 1921 900 of capital stock; and
in these cases the sales involve a loss
of not less than $150,000,000 In the
preceding year sales were made of 1916
miles of road, with S2lS, 100000 of debt
and capital, so that it is not unreasona-
BILE to set down the shrinkage of rail
road property involved in the cases of
these two years at $3.50, 100000. The
end is not yet, but it is generally be-
lieved to be near, and the 10000 miles
or more of road involved in the above
statistics may, as a rule, be regarded as
reduced to "hard pam" and ready to
do fair work at reasonable profit for
their present owners.

One Vote Wanted.

The Importance of one vote is illus
trated in the case of the First Senatorial
District of Connecticut. Senator Eaton
votes in that district, and at the election
last fall he wrote a letter, saying he
would not leave Washington to vote, as
he had no doubt the Democrats would
carry the district. When the votes
were counted they were tie. Under
the Connecticut Constitution, in case of
a tie in the election of State Senator
the House of Representatives elects,
and that body has elected Republican.

Patrick's Poor Painting.

"HAw cried the Court as Patrick
Murphy's head showed itself outside the
corridor door.
That's me--Fm herer' answered
Patrick.
"Mr. Murphy, there's complaint
here against you"
Isn't it against me brother John?"
"No, sir; it reads Patrick Murphy,
with big p on the Patrick You are
the man, and now what do you say to
the charge of drunkenness?''
Il say that drunkenness is a bad
thing, sir"
so it is, and you may find it out,
What is your plea?"
1.-The same as lawyer would an
swer, sir''
You plead not guilty, and now We'll
have the proofs pro and con. Have you
any winesses?'
Yes, sir. l wish to have myself
sworn
You can make your statement if
you desire. Begin at the beginning and
tell a straight story"
"Well, Sir" began Patrick, as he
drew a deep breath, 81 was born in
1882 on side-hill about fourteen miles
| from
"What has that got to do with how
you got drunk in 1S77?'' interrupted
the Court.
Its the beginning, your Honor"
"Well, begin with yesterday morn
ing, then-with your first glass"
My first glass was cup of coffee,
"And your second?"
"Was glass of camphor to ease my
aching tooth"
Patrick, [ can't waste time over
your case. Let me tell you little
story with paint brush in it"
" Don't give me any dime-noyel yarns,
Judge"
Zone fine day in the month of De-
cember, 1871" began the Court, ga
gentleman named Patrick Murphy
thought to add to the elegance of his
home by painting the parlor sky-blue,
the kitchen sky-red, and the two bed
rooms pea-green, shaded down with
yellow and picked in with lead color
and putty. He bought quart of kero-
sene oil, some dry paints, borrowed q
whitewash brush, and after he had put
in half a days work he hardly knew his
own house, nor his wife, nor his babies,
nor his cat, nor his poor old mother
There was paint till they couldn't rest.
Some had one blue eye and one red one;
others wore ultra-marine noses and
chrome-yellow eyebrows, and the
baby's hair exhibited seven different
and beautiful shades of color. Patrick
felt like an old master, his wife felt bad,
and the house smelled like a Chinese
pig-pen. Well-'
"And do you blame me for getting
drunk?' called out the prisoner
Patrick, the smell of that paint
drove the family out of the house last
night, killed the cat, upset the cook
stove and stopped the clock. 1t has
got to be scraped off"
And if you send me up my poor
wife Il have to do itr'
1.-The same, Patrick. That's the
reason you can go. Go home and scrape
acquaintance with doors and base
boards, and next time you want to paint
don't use kerosene"
"What then?"
Sweet oil, of course"
"Ill do it sir-good-by."
And then court adjourned, and Bijah
and His Honor began disputing as to
whether white lead was made of lead
painted white or of marble dust.

A HORRIBLE death recently occurred
at blast furnace in South Stockton,
England. The hopper of a furnace was
charged by a man named James Hig-
gins and other workmen with ironstone,
etc, and in order to allow the material
to fall into the furnace an attempt was
made to lower the bella large conical-
shaped apparatus fitting into the bot
tom of the hopper-about two feet into
a broader space. The bell had become
jammed into the upper part of the ring
and could not be stirred. After several
Intellectual attempts to free it, Higgins
procured large hammer, leaped on to
the bell and struck it blow. The APP
paratus Immediately sank into the
broader space and Higgins went with
it. A groan was heard but nothing
could be seen of the poor fellow as he
passed swiftly with the material into
the furnace. The blast was at once
thrown off and a powerful current of
air forced in, but the horrible smell
which arose proved that the poor mans
body was being rapidly consumed, and
not the slightest portion of it was re-
covered. A Coroner was summoned,
but could not hold an inquest, as there
were no remains to view. A priest read
the burial service of the church, on top
of the furnace, shortly after the acct

anywhere else. Dates are already
 staple product down there. The
 trees bear fruit in ten years from seed. Cocoa palms are not indi- genous, and were prohably intro duced from islands of the Pacific Ocean; but at La Paz, Ldfeto and other parts of this desert country they grow finely and yield great crops of nuts. Frost OcctirS in parts of that desert, but a variety of pIaintain is grown, along irri- gating dltches, which stands frost and yields largely, There is tea plant growing wild down there which can scarcely be distinguish ed from the Chinese variety. When steeped the leaves look exactly alike. Its liquor is rather more red in color, and has some what more sudOrific properties, but is equally wholesome and pal atable. These things, and many others, will be grown on what is now regarded as desert country and at an early day. Irrigation involves an outlay of money that can only be made by capitalists or companies. But the matter is already being taken in hand by men able to put Water on this desert, and its lands will soon be- come available for thousands of prosperous homes.
