Interesting Letter from ST. Paul Bo
Abroad.

Interesting Letter from a St. Paul Boy
Abroad.
Aid. William Rhodes received letter from
his son Willie, who, as tho readers of the
GI0BE have been informed, is making tour
of the old world. Tho letter is dated at.
Geneva, Switzerland, Aug. g. 1880, and gives
most interesting account of his voyage sup
the Rhine" In company with congenial
companion, he writes that ''we took our seats
in the advantageous part of the boat
(the Wilhelm Kaiser) to spy out and treasure
up in our memories the beauties of the Rhine.
From Cologne to Bonn the country lies fiat,
but after leaving Bonn the hills (they are
called mountains here) begin to tower up on
high, and on the most unapproachable spot you
see the ruins of an old castle. The first one,
Orachenfels) and one of the most picturesque.
is perched away up in most outlandish place,
and how it was ever built is wonder, and
thus 30 on do we pass old ruins
and towns which all have some historical le-
gends of knightly times connected with them,
but when we got to Coblentz we begin to see
the true beauty of the Rhine. Formerly it was
like the Mississippi from Dubuque up, but
now it is by far grander. 1t is simply immense
from Coblentz to Bingen, fair Bingen on the
Rhine" and now pity that poor soldier that
''lay dying at Algiers,' not to see it once more.
The river from Coblentz to Bingen, twists and
turns in and out from the mountains, and at
times you wonder how you are going
to get out for the opening
of the river does not appear until You turn the
sharp corner of mountain. The mountains
rise almost from the bank of the river to great
height, except here and there where little
town has been built in small valley between
two mountains upon whose top tower some old
feudal baron's castle. After leaving Bngen
the country again becomes fiat for miles on
each side, so if anyone ask, tell them the Rhine
really begins at Coblentz and ends at Bingen.
The letter continues at length to give his
impressions of Mojence, Weisbaden, Frank
fort on the Main. and Heidelberg, which latter
place, he says, is the most picturesque in
Germany. From Heidelberg he went to Baden
Baden, the famous gambling place, which is
now dull, as gambling has been abolished
there. From thence he went to Strassburg,
saw the great clock strike at IL o'clock, and
then to Geneva, where he arrived on the 7th
inst. He is having grand time; his health is
good, but he wants to get home. and will sail
from Liverpool about the Goth of October, ar
irving home early in November.

west, from August To- to the present time, as
to the condition and prospects of the corn crop.
The result is the discovery of the stories of
drought have been much exaggerated and
that the frequent showers of the past few
days will doubtless remedy the greater part of
the evil from drouth. The crop will certainly
be large average, the damage being confined
to narrow limits. In other districts the crop will
be the largest on record. This is true of Iowa.
The summary shows that twenty-five counties

Tie FIRST Locomotive IL. Ameriea.

At the recent commencement exercises of
Stevens institute, Hoboken N. j., one of the
interesting features was the extempore re-
maks made by Horatio Allen, who was intro
duced to the audience by Prof. Morton as the
Nestor OF American locomotive engineers.
Among other things, be said that the first loco
motive brought to this country was purchased
by himself for the Delaware & Hudson Canal
company. This engine, the first to draw a
railway train on this continent, was run for
the first time on the road connecting the Lack
awanna coal fields with tide water by way of
the Delaware & Hudson canal. 1t was the
first road Of any consequence to adopt loccmo-
tive power.
He took an honest pride in being able to
present to the audience the man who owned
the hand that opened the valve of the first
locomotive On the continent, and who took the
first ride on the first railroad. This expert
mental trip was made at Honesdale, Pa, Aug.
s, 1929. Mr. Allen gave graphic description
of the scene; how he mounted the engine
a.one placed his hand boldly on the lever of
the throttle and pulled the valve wide open,
resolved if he went down to go manfully.
