Ell PASO, TEXAS.

If a few items from El Paso Texas,
will be of interest to you, here they
are: This is the best town Eve seen
i'll the southwest. With a population
less than 1000 it has mile of bust
ness houses; is lighted by gas and
electric lights; has water works; tel
ephone, ice machine and street cars.
Rents are enormous, from 500 to
$500 being paid for store rooms, and
to a stranger it seems to be a jun
BILE of restaurants and saloons. But
there is a substantial Appearance
about the buildings of the little city
and they impress one with the idea
that the people who live here came
to stay, and relieves it of being
called a mushroom town.

w. II, Tuttle, who seems to have
the inside track on the painting bus
mess and is one of the young man Of
the city.
Geo. Killen, all old time pros
pector of Lincoln county, | met on
the street. He was looking for a
town that sells whisky at twenty-five
cents a drink and expressed the opin-
ion the frontier was thing of the
past.
The White Oaks railroad is no
longer agitated having been agitated
out of existence. Still all expressed
the opinion that the d. & r. G..
would some time connect the two
cities.
In company with Paul Wagner,
who was representing the Rio
Grande Republican, | visited Paso
Del Norte and for the first time set
my foot outside of the United States
and Territories. This Mexican plaza
rosembled those of New Mexico,
having the same old Mexican cathe-
dral, the same ancient 'dobey walls
and only differed in having barracks
where the Mexican soldier, in his
picturesque uniform, guarded you
from crossing the dead line. We
inscribed our names i'll the bell
tower, mailed letter with foreign
stamp and paid twenty cents to come
back on the street cars. This
took all the ancient business out of
it. NJ.

Queer Fishes.

The fishes that make their home in
the interior of other animals are some
what numerous. Considerable numbers
of a small species habitually lodge in
the ample mouth cavity of Brazilian
catfish, living on such crumbs as they
can filoh from the table of their host.
A Mediterranean eel which dwells in
the branchial sac Of o devil-iish picks
up its living in somewhat similar
fashion The sea-cucumbers, or Hol-
othurians, are the favorite home of q
curious group Of small eel-like fishes
known as FierGster. The commonest
of the Mediterranean species measures
about 10 inches in length, and Prof.
Emery has seen seven of these fishes
enter, one after the other, the body of a
large sea-cucumber. They use 1t, in
his opinion, rs n habitation or rs q ref
uge from their enemies, getting their
nourishment all the while from the sea
by pushing their heads out Of their Ho-
lothurian home. Sea-anemones are also
known as iish-shelters. DR.. Colling-
wood, when sailing in the seas about
Labuan, came upon an anemone which
measured fully two feet in diameter
when its tentacles were expanded. See
ing small fish lowering over the anem-
one, and suspecting that there might
be more OF them within, he began rak-
ing about with, stick in the body Of
the creature and succeeded In
turning no fewer than six
similar fishes out of It's body cay
ity. The great sea-jellies, with their
dome-like disks and fringe Of singing
tentacles, are somewhat suggestive OF
floating marine homes, and Il Is found
that beneath those living umbrellas
crowds Of the smaller fishes habitually
shelter. A. Agassiz counted no fewer
than twenty-nine Of them swimming in
safety within the fringed circle OF q
single medusa. Prof. Sars, Of Chris
tiania, also found that at an early stage
of its growth, the cod in the neighbor-
hood Of tho Loffoden Islands ayails it.
self of similar shelter. In this instance
the alliance is supposed TO be mutually
beneficial; the cod-fry sharing in the
minute food which tho jelly-lish Is able
TO stupefy by its singing tentacles;
while It In return, Is supposed to relieve
its host Of certain minute parasites
which infest it.-LongnldH's Mdgdzine.

At EIGHTY YEARS.

Launched on the bostorous sea Of lifo,
Just eighty years ago,
A little craft that bore my name,
For so the records show.
This little black-eyed boy grew on,
Nursed by paternal caro-,
And on his head copious growth
or black and curly hair.
AS grew on TO boys estate,
soon began to plan
What i would do when had reached
The stature Of Il nan.
I'd tell of times or sing In rhymes,
TO any list ming ears,
OF battles fought and labors wrought
= In these eventful years.
The sen was calm, the skies serene,
My hopes were young and bright;
Naught could impede my course, wccn,
Success seemed then In sight.
But ah how little do we know.
When stormy temposts lower,
Along life's pathway as VIC go,
Beset us every hour.
At every turn along the way
I've met them thick aud fast;
My life has been no Idle play
From first down to the last.
Two moored my old, dlsmantled crafs
In a cushioned rocking chair,
Beside warm Ind glowing fire,
Away from toll and care.
No more the bosterous sea will break
On sides OF this old craft,
No freight or passengers to take,
Condemned both fore and aft.
I'll walk the deck OF this old wreck,
In weather bright and fair,
And think of times In other climes,
While one sound timber's there.
A lighthouse meets the vision dim,
Not such as seen before;
AT length make II out to be
A light on t'Other shore.

REDUCING RATES.
Judge Dillon Before the House Commit
tee on Pacific Railroads.

Judge Dillon Before the House Commit
tee on Pacific Railroads.
Judge Dillon, of New York, representing
the Union Pacific railroad, was heard before
the house committee on Pacific railroads
Saturday on the Sumner bill to reduce
freight rates on the Union Pacific railroad,
between Omaha and Ogden, and on the Gem
trail Pacific railroad, to 40 per cent. Of tho
present rates. He argued that the section Of
the Union Pacific charter, providing that
whenever the net earnings of the company
exceed 10 per cent. of the entire cost of the
road congress may reduce the rates Of charges,
and, IL unreasonable in amount, may fix
the same by law, was alegislative contract bo-
tween the government and the company, and
as such binding upon the parties. He relied
upon certain decisions of the United States
supreme court to establish the proposition,
that by means Of this contract the earnings
of 10 per cent. net was q condition precedent
to the right of congress to interfere with tho
charges. Judge Dillon said 1t had not been
shown that the company had made 10 per
cent. net earnings on the cost Of the road |;
and that the official reports of tho United
States railroad commissioner show afirma-
lively that the net earnings Of the company
did not equal 10 per cent. Of the cost of tho
road either to the company or the con-
tractors. The Credit Mobiier investigation
had shown the cost of the road to the COM
pany to be 100000, 900 and to tho contractors
$50000,0O0. By the reports of the gov
eminent railroad commissioner it appeared
that the net earnings of the Union
Pacific line from Omaha to Ogden
in 1882, after making tho authorized
deductions, was only about $4,000,000, ex-
Guiding revenues from branch lines, which
was not 10 per cent, either to tho company
or to the contractors. Judge Dillon said
that from 1870 to 1882 there had been a re-
duction of rates, the present average rate per
mile for passengers being 81 cents, and for
freights per ton per mile 10, which was as
reasonable as or less than the rates charged
by any other road west Of the Missouri river
that was not under government control. He
referred to the decision Of the supreme court
sustaining the Thurman act, and main
tanned that it did not lay down the
doctrine that under the power to
amend congress could abrogatc, without
the companys consent, portions Of the
act which constitute distinct and specific
legislative contract on specific subject. He
said the government debt was perfectly secure
in every contingency; that more than $780,
100000 of capital, &C., inferior to the govern
ment lien was interested to preserve the
property, and that it was unjust to require
the company to contribute money to sink
ing fund in advance of its debt being due
when it would yield to the capital invested
under the Thurman act, less than II per
cent. interest.

Tho Underground Wires.

Several days ago tho commissioners re-
quested DIR. Norvin Green, president of the
Western Union Telegraph company, and d.
II. Bates, president of the Baltimore and Ohio
Telegraph company, to consider the subject
of placing their main trunk line under
ground without further delay. Messrs. Bates
and Zueblin, representing the Baltimore and
Ohio, called at the commissioner Office on
Saturday, and expressed their willingness to
lay their wires under ground on Fourteenth
street, though they were not sure that it
would prove q success. But if it does prove
successful they will continue to lay the
main body of their line under ground. Tho
system they will use is similar to the ono
now in use in London, although the Standard
cable system is now generally in use The
work will be commenced early this week.
The Bankers and Merchants have begun
to lay their wires at Fourteenth street and

Bishop Andreyvs,s Sermon.

Yesterday was missionary day at McKen-
dree church, and large congregation was
present. Bishop Andrews preached from the
text John XIV, 16. After slight exegetical
Interpretation of the text he resolved the
whole into the subject of the mission Work
of the Church and tho Commission to the
Faithful" The points advanced were Christ's
words to His chosen people. The greatness
of this commission COMFORTS with the
grandeur of His own character. We
are to know that the work was
commissioned by the proclamation Of Di-
vine Father, and that there was mono other
capable. This proclamation was of an atone.
ment and salvation of all men. The glory Of
the nineteenth century ia particularly an at
tendant to this great command.
The mission work of the church was traced
at some length. and the increased zeal and
good accomplished were commented on. In
conclusion the faithful were called on tt
maintain q hopeful spirit and support thi!
great cause of Christianity.
After the sermon collection was taken up
and it was announced that $25S.01 had beer
