about 500 000. go in the course Of seven or

significant compared With the net earnings
of the railways owned by these FIVE per-

less as to the future than their millions of

Tug Wilson came up from Cape
May last night. and OF once went into
training. Mr.. Chambers has heard
nothing officially Of the fight said to
have been arranged between Tug"
and Dunno, Of New York, and the
training Of the former, commencing
to. day, will be for the glove fight with
Sullivan. The English champion
looks as fresh and as round as an
infant, and when he is asked, which is
frequntly the case. whether he can
stand up again against Sullivan, he says
nothing, only he smiles softly aud with
an air which plainly says, "And beat
him, too" He will probably 20 into
the contest a few pounds lighter than
he trained in for the last match. His
training is Of the old fashioned kind,
long walks and occasional use Of the
dumb bells. He will start out every
morning for q walk at z o'clock, return
ing for breakfast at half past 8. His
breakfast is a routine diet of beefsteak
and eggs. he will walk again fran 10
o'clock until noon, when he will return
to the REST" for a solid dinner of
mutton, beef and bread. At 2 o'clock
he goes out to the park and trots for
miles, returningat 5o'clock for supper.
He takes another long walk before
bedtime, which is always promptly at
8 o'clock. He seldom uses sand bags
to exercise his muscles, but frequently
resorts to dumb bells and occasionally
plugs away at a suspended football.
Although any arrangements for a fight
with Dunno have not been commune
Gated to Tugs" friend and hacker,
Arthur Chambers, he says that as that
matter was left with parties in New
York, it will be all right. "And you
can say for me-" said Chambers, that
the New York glove fight and the
Dunno fight will be on the square. My
money is ready to back that every
time. 1t will be no boys play any
where, and nobody is going to do
anything" No idea that Tug" will
be knocked out in the match will,

An Unfit appointment.
New York Star

The appointment OF Mr.. W. W. As
tor, OF this city, to SUCCEED the late
George 2. Marsh as Minister TO Rome,
is eminently one not fit to be made
MIR. Marsh was a superior man in
every respect. He had a large outfit
OF talent to begin with, and was we'll
educated. He became an accomplish.
ed acholar aud was a distinguished au-
thor before he wss sent to Italy by The
lamented Lincoln in 1861. He had
served three terms in Congress and
was elected for the fourth, when he
was appointed Minister to Turkey.
and his service at Constantinople In
creased his distinction. His lectures on
the English language and literature at
Columbia College gave a powerful i'm.
pulse to studies which had previously
been sadly neglected; 10 fact, he called
the attention of educational institu.
tons and students back from classic
and foreign languages to the exhaust.
less resources Of the English tongue
and the literature written in it. At
the time Of his death, after nearly ten
years Of service in Italy, he was the
best known ana most distinguished
preventative Of the United States in
Enrope-the one man abroad who
gave dignity and character to the
diplomatic service of the United
States.
1t is almost an insult to the memory
Of such a Minister to appoint a person

THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
wILrIAm Il. BATE, for GOVERNOR

SOMEBODY has written q letter for
the bliud girl of Lawrence county,
and it appears in print with her name
printed at the bottom. 1t is stated IN
some Of tue papers that she has the
great misfortune Of being weak
miAded as we'll as blind. She is the
owner Of one State bond, aud states
in this letter that she agl eed to the
compromise of the 6O-3+-5-6 act, and
will in a few days fund the bond. Her
letter is in reply to a four column let
ter of a local politician named s. A.
Carroll, and she, or whoever wrote the
letter, touches him upin lively style
displaying a considerable knowledge
of State politics for one in her condi
ton. This is not considered an age OF
miracles, yet some very strange things
happen.

A TENNEsSEEAN ROBBED.
Shall sleeping Cars Provide
Saf S for their Patrons?

The Chicago Tribune relates that
the other day an old gentleman named
Joseph Brown, hailing from Tennes-
see, called at that Office and stated that
on the night of the 18th of July he
was robbed in a sleeping car on the
Northwestern road, between Chicago
and ElrOy. 1t appears that there was
no berth at his disposal except an upper
one in the sleeper in which he had
engaged passage, and, being crippled,
found it was impossible for him to
climb into it. He appealed to the
conductor for a lower berth, and was
taken into the next sleeper, in which
there were three ladies and a child.
In this car he was given a lower berth.
Before retiring he told the porter to
be sure to wake him before reaching
Elroy. After partially disrobing
himself he enclosed $40 in $40 bills
in an envelope, which he sealed
and put into his vest. Removing the
garment he put it and the money
under his pillow. A short time before
reaching Elroy, just after daybreak,
he woke up, and,o on getting out of bed,
was Mortified to fad lying on the floor
the envelope which contained his cash.
His vest was also lying on the floor.
lie called for the porter, but received
no response. Looking through the car
he found him alseep. The conductor
of the sleeper was in the sleeping car
forward. He made known his loss at
once, but failed to recover his money.
On returning to Chielgo he made
complaint at the sleeping car company,
and was informed that there was no
restitution as passengers were suppos
ed to carry money at their own peril.
As there was no one in the car but
the three ladies', one of whom had a
child, it was fair to presume that the
colored porter, who was a new man on
the road, got away with the money, or,
if he did not, connived at the illicit
entrance into the car of somebody who
did. Sleeping car companies are
common carriers, and in the discharge
of their business exercise a portion OIL
the functions Of a hotel keeper. The
statutes Of most Of the States for the
regulation of hotels provide that the
hotel keeper shall not be responsible
for the loss of money or property in.
Cured by a guest SO long as a notice il
posted in the rooms of the hotel stating
that there is a safe in the Office where
such property can be deposited. Ap.
plying this rule to the sleeping cars
and it would not be an onerous one
would il not be well for each sleeping
car to have on board a small safe with
a key in the possession Of the con.
ductor, in which passengers could de,
posit their valuables, obtaining a re.
ceipt therefor from the conductor, and
20 to sleep feeling assured that in thu
morning they would not be minus theiI
property
