Shannon's eye. She was seen to blush
| and bow. This confirmed the rumor.
The fact that Shannon's wife, the sis
ter-in.law of the governor, was a pros
titate, spread like lightning through
out Columbus, and the scandal was
the sensation of the town. The poll.
ticisns held an immediate caucus, at
which it was decided that the evil
must be remedied at all hazards.
In those days the legislature granted
all the divorces. The caucus decided
that Tom Shannon must be divorced
from his wife. This was on the same
morning of the breakfast-table sceue,
before the opening of the daily session
of the assembly. Immediately after
the reading of the senate journal a
motion was made to suspend the rules
for the introduction of a bill. This
carried, and a bill was introduced pro-
viding for Shannon's divorce. 1t was
read three times, under suspended
rules, and passed.
1t was then hurried over to the house
and there passed in the same manner.
The whole affair did not take twenty.
five minutes. 1t was settled, proba-
bly,, the quickest of any divorce case
on record.
.Iu As for Senator Shannon, the affair
was the cause of his death. He left
the legislature on the exposure of the
fraud and returned to his home in
Ba~rnesville. He was of a high, sensi-
tive nature, and his brooding over his
wrongs brought on a sickness from
which he died about a year after his
scaudalous marriage.

The proprietors thought that they had

shape of natural curiosities, and
locked up the place. 1t happened
that a monkey was left behind, and in
the course of time he got hungry. He
broke q window, stepped down and
out, and followed a clothes-line into a
neighboring back yard, where Flora
Benecke, q little four year-old, was
playing. The girl made friends with

Tha Omn1hus Doomed.

The omnibus is a doomed institu-
ton in New York and probably in
other cities. In 1850 there we're in
that city some 900, in 1858 about 480,
while at present there are hardly 100.
The omnibus is a clumsy and incon-
venient vehicle. It is very awkward,
especially for a woman, to get into or
get out of; the seats are uncomforta-
BILE, the roof is so low that it usually
strikes ones head; the vehicle is
80 noisy as to prevent conversation; in
deed, there Is almost nothing to rec
ommend it. An omnibus is one of
the things that has not improved with
time; it is an exception to the theory
of universal development. The first
omnibus that al in Broadway, was
very like the omnibuses which
run there to-day. and which bump
passengers about in very much the
same barbarous fashion. Yet in Buff
falo, in the absence of better faOili-
ties, the omnibus has, during the last
two years, proved a great accomoda-

A Mile in Forty-eight seconds.

New York Sun.
A locomotive of somewhatnovel de-
sign has recently been built at the
Baldwin works in Philadelphia, for
use on the Round Brook route. It
has been stated by q Philadelphia
newspaper that this locomotive last
week made the trip from that city to
Jersey City in ninety minutes, draw
ing a train of cars, and that it returned
in the same number of minutes. II
was further stated that the locomotive
was built under a contract demanding
that it be capable of a speed of seven
ty. five miles per hour, and that it had
accomplished already q maximum of
seventy three miles in sixty minutes.
Inquiries were made yesterday at the
office of the New jersey Central rail-
road to confirm there statements in
all particulars. The locomotive was
described as somewhat larger than the
ordinary build, with driving wheels
seven feet in diameter. It wal said
that the locomotive had not yet ran
nearer to Jersey City than Bound
Brook, thirty miles distant It was
thought that as the engine had been
about half the time in the repair shops
since it's completion, it could hardly
be called success al yet. The opinion
was advanced that an ordinary
locomotive was of greater utility.
With many of such locomotives, it was
said, a speed Of sixty miles an hour il
every day attained. a higher rate Of
speed than this, it was thought, inn
practicable, exospt in extraordinary
cases, and to attempt to draw passen-
ger trains at q greater speed would
drive away many patrons.
Superintendent McCres, of the
Pennsylvania road, was asked as to
the rate of speed of trains on that
road between Jersey City and Phila-
delphia.
''The schedule time for the ninety
miles," he said, lis one hour and fifty
minutes; but the run il often made
by trains behind time in one hour and
thirty eight minutes" he said that
he had ridden ia locomotive when
he timed a mile in ffty-two seconds,
and another official present said that
he had timed mile in forty. eightsee-
onds. With q we'll built locomotive,
good track, and steady engineer, it
was said the only limit to speed is de-
pendent On the amount of steam that

In 1910 Wilson Shannon, Of st.

brother of the governor, represented
the Belmont county district in the

of female beauty, and often boasted
that he could appreciate all of the
beauties of virtuous woman hood.
Shortly after his entrance on his

of magnificent form, and wonderful
beauty of the southern brunette or

and her costly jewelry led to
the belief that she must be pos

mutual love, and the two souls bad

Senator Shannon brought his bride

We saw in the stables at the stock
yards at Chicago a few days ago, a
pair Of steers that are under two years
old (yearlings) and weigh 310Opounds,
being 1850 each. We inquired who
bred and fattened them, and was in
formed that they were the pair exhib-
tied by James N. Browns sons, of
Berlin, Ills, at the last fat stock
show. On the next day we met MI.
VIM. Brown, one of the firm, who
raised the steers, and interviewed him
upon the subject. He informed us
that the steers were thoroughbred
Short-horns, that they were bountiful-
ly fed on milk until six month"; old.
From that time ON they have been
generously fed, corn being the main
feed.
Mr.. Brown rays hal a steer will
consume from 30 to 60 bushels of corn
from the time he is six months old un-
til he is eighteen, at which time he
should weigh 1900 pounds, and in the
next twelve months he will eat about
70 bushels and gain about 400 pounds,
thereby weighing 1000 pounds at 80
months old. Mr.. Brown thinks, and
we concur in his views, that there is
nc profit in feeding a steer after he is
two and a BALI years old, that the gain
in weight will not pay for the feed he
consumes. much less pay the interest
on his value and the risk incurred.
With these facts before us, and we
think they are facts that cannot be
contro7erted, the great problem then
for western farmers to solve, is to
learn how to breed, how to feed, and
what to feed to produce the most
pounds of the best quality in the
shortest time, with the least expense.
