Broadway, New York.

Broadway is the main street of New
York, and the most brilliant thorough
fare in America. Indeed, it would be
impossible to find in Europe itself o
street which is characterized by such
tremendous activity ,and such diversified
and ambitious architecture, and such an
air of metropolitan splendor, wealth and
life. The great avenues of trade which
run from Trafalgar Square or Hyde
Park to the Royal Exchange the arcaded
lines of the Rue de Rivoli, the busy
Graben of Vienna, the Via Roma of
Naples, none of these can sustain COM
parison with the grand artery Of the
New World, through which course from
sunrise till evening strong currents of
the most electric life of the nineteenth
century. The noble width of the street,
so favorable to architectural effects and
long vistas; its great length of fully five
miles, nearly one-half of which is abso-
lutely straight; and its central position
on the island, with long streets,
crowded with stately buildings, diverg-
ing on either side; all these are the ad-
vantages of position, which serve 10 set
off to the best advantage the co-morama
of humanity which continually
surges along the pavements. Broad as
the roadway is so great are the num-
bers of carriages. omnibuses and wagons
always in motion there, that it becomes
an affair of no small peril to cross it;
and the most stalwart and handsome
officers of the police force are stationed
at the corners to escort ladies from one
side to the other. Some years ago IN
iron bridge was thrown over Broadway
near Fnlton street. so that pedestrians
could cross in safety. Never was there

Dear me she's never faded mite in all

Gambling Farmers.

The following extract from an Illinois
paper may help our farmers to form some
fair idea of the working of the
"put and call system" now adopted in
San Francisco "The extent to which
farmers have staked money on wheat
margins is working harm to many COM
munities. The fact that such men as
Armour, McGeoch, Handy and Gould
have made their tens and hundreds of
thusands on corners in wheat, has
tempted many of the farmers of specula-
tive turn of mind to try their hand. They
usually find their hand empty before the
deal closes. Where one farmers makes
by operating in wheat, thousand lose.
1t is not complimentary to the shrewd-
ness or intelligence of the small fish to
rush in, making themselves the victims
of the mighty. It is the old story of the
big fish eating up the little ones. fit is
not an established fact that gambling in
grain or stocks is the chief business
transacted in Chicago wheat puts and

and exchanges in the great trade centers,
it is something near akin to what is nm
derstood by the term;
The present manner of dealing in grain
is not only damaging to those operating,
but to the whole country.
