Can't Stand Romance.
San Francisco Exchange

There Is very pretty story going the
rounds about the origin of the name Ari-
zona. A divine maiden named Arizona,
after all the men in the world had become
extinct. was sent to populate the waste.
She wandered over the world for centuries
without finding lover or husband-she
wanted one. Of course, though divine. she
was human, and feminine, too-and, con-
sequently, as may be inferred, failed in her
mission. She was very lovely. and one
day, while basking In tho sunbeams, she
bore twins, . son and daughter. Il was
very fortunate for the young lady that she
had no parents, for in these unromantic
days were she to tell the dewdrop stsry to
the old man the reply would bs moro like

Many persons have heard the question

liam Patterson was very wealthy trades
man or merchant of Baltimore in the State
Of Maryland. In the early days of F rank
lin county he bought up a good many
tracts of land in the county, and spent a
good portion of bis time in looking after
his interests there. He was said to be as
strong as bear and az brave ss lion. and
like all brave men he was lover of peace
and, indeed, a good, pious man, Never
theless, his wrath could be excited to a
lighting pitch. On one occasion he attend
ed a public gathering In the lower part of
Franklin county, at some district court
ground. During the day two opposing
bulies aud their friends raised row, and a
general fight was the consequence. At the
beginning of the affray and before the
fight began. Billy Patterson ran into the
crowd to persuade them not to fight, but to
make peace and be friends. But his efforts
for peace were unavailing, and while ma
king them some of the crowd in the gene
raj melee struck Billy Patterson blow
from behind. Billy at once became fight.
ing mad and cried ont at the top of his
voice, "Who struck Billy Patterson" No
one could or would tell him who was the
guilty party. He then proposed to give
800 TO any man who would tell him who
struck Billy Patterson. From 800 he rose
to 81, 600, but no 81, 900 would induce any
man to tell who struck Billy Patterson.
And years after, in his will he related the
above facts, and bequeathed $1,000 to be
paid by his executors to the uan who
would tell who struck Billy Patterson. His

FasIcSI AlFrlc Ever --ErOpOSaI To
Run Ninety Miles i'm Ninety Minutes.
New York Times
On Monday last the Times printed let
ter from courteous correspondent, who
undertook to correct q statement that
tram which it is proposed to run regularly
between Philadelphia and Jersey City
ninety miles in ninety m,nutes-would be
among the fastest in the world. His exam.
pies of fast trains we're not as striking as
they might have been made, however.
Knights Mechanical Dictionary records
that Stephenson's Rocket travelled ut the
rate of sixty miles an hour over fifty years
ago, when the art of building locomotives
was in it's early infancy. The same author
ity gives eighty.one miles in sixty-one
minutes, made by special official train on
tha New York Central Railroad, az the
fastest time ever made in the United States.
scarcely inferior is the record of seventy
two miles in seventy three minutes, made
by tram between Lima aud Dayton, in
Guiding two stops. The best English rec
ord is thirteen miles in ten minutes, or at
the rate of seventy -eight miles an hour or
one mile In forty-six seconds. The special
train which carried Queen Victoria the de-
cision OF this government i'm the Trent diff
ficulsy in 1869 ran 131 miles In IA minutes,
Or at the late Of 54b miles per hour. Thes Q
are exceptional casss, however, and II there
is any train in the world which proposes a
regular schedule time of ninety miles in
ninety minutes, with no deductions for any
cause-which is q very different thing
from an occasional rata of q mile minute
Its existence Is not gensIaily known.
Probably the fastest train in England is
chat between London aud Swindon, on the
Great Western railroad, which travels at
the rate of SO miles an hour. The North
western road runs train from London to
Rugby OF the rate of 4si miles per hour,
aud the Great Northern Company one from
London to Peterborough at the rate of .hf-
ty miles in sixty minutes. The London
Holyhead, or Wild l.ishmau, trains run
only at the rate of forty three miles. Prob
ably the fastest French train is the one
which runs from Paris to Marseilles nj the
tate Of forty miles an hour, and on lhe
Berlin and Hamburg road train covers
the 56A mile, between Spsndau and Stem
dal at the rate of forty-two miles an hour.
Americans need not be ashamed to add to
the record the Pennsylvania railroad train
between Jersey City aud Germantown
Junction at the rate Of forty nine miles an
hour, and the proposed train, taking the
average Of the whole distance, is, as we
said, the fastest regular train run. ..
