The rumOr that the elevated roads would
voluntarily reduce their fare to five cents, after
having quietly smothered bill to that effect
at Albany, was altogether ridiculous, though
not too absurd, it seems, TO obtain some cur

plainly that they have no intention of doing
anything OF the kind, and probably they mean

SOUTHERN TESTIMONY.

A Methodist paper published at At
lanta, Ca, gives the names and details
of the lynching Of thirty-four Metho-
dist preachers and teachers in the
South, white and colored, during the
past two years. It asserts that the
only offences Of these men were that
they belonged to the Methodist church
north, voted the Republican ticket
and interested themselves in the edu-
cation Of negroes, And what is worse
than all, in not q single instance has
the guilty perpetrator been punished.

Our country is getting to be fearful
~ alarming, the average of life being
lessened every year, without any rea-

ly from the most insignificant origin.
At this season Of the year especially,
a cold IS such common thing that in
the hurry of every day life we are apt
to overlook the dangers attending it
and often find too late, that a Fever
or Lung trouble has already set in.-
Thousands lose their lives in this way
every winter, while had Boscbee's Ger
man Syrup been taken, a cure would
have resulted, and large bill from a.
Doctor been avoided. For all diseas-
es Of the Throat and Lungs, Boschee's
German Syrup has proven itself to be
the greatest discovery of its kind in
medicine. Every Druggist in this
country will tell you of it's wonderful
effect. Over $4,000 bottles sold last

A GREAT DISCOVERY IN BRIDGI
BUILDING.
New York Correspondence.


eve have made one great discovery,
which every railroad or bridge builder
in the West ought to know about
said the engineer. " What is it?" I
asked. Well, we used to try to drive
the piles, but we discovered that we
could sink them better by hydraulics.
That is, we now place a steel hose on
the lower end OF the pile, then start
the engine, and the stream Of water
tears up the sand and gravel, and the
pile drops of it's own weight fifteen feet
into ground. Once there nothing can
move it. Now, this is the way to place
piles in the lakes and rivers out West.
Why, with this discovery | can bridge
a river as cheaply as [ can make the
same distance of elevated railroad.
No more suspension bridges, except
over high streams, after this; no more
Howetruss bridges. either.
Why [ can bridge the Mississippi for
100000 with a bridge that will look
like piece Of iron lace hanging in the
air"

I wonder, says Mrs. Garrison, how
any woman who has ever kissed q
clean man can 60 through the pretense
even, of kissing tobacco chewer. Did
you ever see one suffer the penalty !?
This is how she does it. There is a
preliminary shudder, and then she sets
her teeth hard, holds her breath, makes
a little pigeon dip at the foul lips of
the grinning beast, and then, pale with
horror, flies to the kitchen, where, if
you follow her, you will find her dis
injecting with soap and water. Many
of the blessed little hypocrites pretend
that they like the smell of cigar, but
even hypocrisy is powerless to force
from a woman the confession of a
fondness for hanging like the bee on
the flower to a tobacco-worm's lips.
