A WHISKY

The most interesting strike Of any.
thing yet encountered in boring for oil,
coal or anything else in the bowels Of the
earth. was recently experienced by q
rancher On the Missouri river. He was
boring for water. and after running his
auger through q woody formation a most
grateful smell came up, and the borinss
had such q suspicious flavor that be
dropped the suction Of his pump into
the hole. and to his delighted surprise
hs commenced pumping up pure whisky
and Of . very choice. smooth quality.
Land In the immediate vicinity arose at
once to fabulous figures. and everybody
went to boring. but nome struck the
whisky vein. About this time somebody
remembered that about twenty years ago
the steamer Arabian sank in the river
thereabouts with six hundred barrels Of
whisky on board. The current Of the
river went on changing, and now the
place where the steamer sank II dry land
and the forgotten wreck Is buried forty
feet deep in the sand. Everybody quit
boring forthwith and tried to buy out the
Arst locator. But the happy possessor
will not sell. He has sunk q shaft and
10 running sidedrifts and crosscuts
among those old bapsls in his whisky
bonanza, has built . fns building ovsr
his hosting. works and has seven bar.
keepers constantly employed. Such Q
fat streak Of choice twsnty.ysar old Bour.
bon il not struck every day.

Edlson's Electric Railroad.
Nstc York Herald.


Edison has at least proved that he can
utilize the electric current for railroad
purposes. A Herald reporter went to
Menlo Park to witness q trial OF the
new motor on the three-quarter mile
railroad. As Q precaution against un-
iorseen accidents, the member OF the
press selected o seat as near 90 possible
to the inventor. because It would be
only natural that that was the safest one
in case the train should jump the track.
At q signal from Edison. Mr.. Batchelder
moved the lever tsched TO the switch,
and of we went. The riding was very
enjoyable for the FIRST Ave hundred
yards or 80. when suddenly q most hor.
ribls curve was reached, round which
the motor, with its car attached. spun
at q rather uncomfortable gait. Then
came o series Of serpentine curves that
were enough to brighten anybody, but
there wal no slowing up. On the con.
trsry, moro power was put on, until Il
seemed that the whole party were going
to be shaken from their seats. The line
was located in the worst possible posi-.
tons by Edison. in order that the
"beauties" Of his invention would be
readily seen by any one on the car.
Some OF the curvss are az sharp a. those
used on the surface roads round street
corners in New York, 10 the reader can
imagine how pleasant It was to 60
around them at the rate OF about forty
miles an hour. The strangest part OF
the programme was the easy manner OF
controlling the motor, II being stopped
within fifty feet, although going at .
high speed. It ran up against the heavy
grades as easily as on the level track,
and was a. powerful at the end OF the
track as in the station, where the electric
current first reaches the rail. After the
first trial the reporter was invited to ride
on the motor without having the car
attached. 30 that the speed would be
increased. Three went on this trip
one on the switch, another at the brake
and the reporter holding on for dear life.
At the word 60. the machine shot Of
like q bullet, and II was only by holding
on firmly that ones seat could be kept.
Az the curves we're struck the motor
rocked fearfully; in fact. 1t was a. hard
to keep yonr seat on 1t as on an unbroken
mustang when he sets his mind on the
''busking" process Of dismounting you.
The time made wal ffty.three seconds
from the station to the end Of the track
on the FIRST trial, and forty.two on the
second trial. The motor has al electric
headlight which Is burning continuously,
and which has . very pretty effect In the
night time.

Conkling no doubt feels . peculiar
sense Of qualification in knowing that
the twenty votes which at last broke
away from the New York delegation he
had experienced such trouble to hold
together a. Q unit wsro not needed to
nominate Garfield. They merely counted
~ . majority. making 3s9, when $40 was
the precise number needed. And 1t
must also DO gratifying to the friends Of
Grant to know that his delegate friends
in the convention never wavsrsd in their
allegiance. but stood in firmly and un-
compromisingly from first to last. It
needed but a small accession to their
firmly united ranks to have won the
nomination for Grant. The Cincinnati
Eaquirer. . Democratic organ. thus re-
marks on the subject /: "The ticket is
Garfield and Arthur. The convention
was shamed into permitting the brilliant
New York Senator to name the second
nan on the ticket. The redssming fea-
ture Of the convention was the splendid
interchangeable devotion Of o few more
than 300 men. who came out Of the con.
vsntion as they went in, unpurchassd.
uncompromissd. uncompromising and
trina"

THE VICE

General Chester A. Arthur OF New
York. our Republican nominee for Vice
President, is an old line, consistent,
u%nwavering Republican and a man Of
high personal character. and large
experience in public affairs. His mill
tary record is good. his civil record
excellent. and his most energetic services
have always been freely given to insure
the success Of the Republican party in
his native Empire State, and he has
svincsd marked ability in the organi-
zation and direction Of political cam
paigns. He received the appointment OF
Collector Of the Port Of New York in
1873. . position requiring great admin.
istrativs capacity. clear judgment and
untirins industry for its proper manage.
msnt. He held the ONCE for . number
Of years. fulfilling its duties with marked
ability and success he was Provost
Marshal at Washington at the time Of
the assassination OF President Lincoln.
The lack OF harmony between the
present Administration and Senator
Conkling led to q desire. on the part Of
the President, to remove the principal
Federal officers at New York. and coz.
ssqusntly the name Of another gentle-
man was sent to the Senate to DO Col.
leotor at that port. The Senate rejected
the nomination. on the ground that the
removal OF General Arthur wa In oppo-
sition to tho civil service rules an
nounced BY the President. General
