the Door,"

DIR. Angeles Address on '"The Thinker and
the Door,"
DR.. James B. Angel, president of the Mich
igan State University, addressed the association,
last evening on the subject ''The Thinker and
the Door," He spoke of the different characters
of thinkers and doers-the owllike silent and
solemn fools, and the quiet, unpretentious men
Of wisdom; the fidgety fussy doer. who undertakes
everything and accomplshes nothing, and the
intelligent systematic worker who, turning to
practical use all ideas that are given him,
achieves success. The thinkers and doors have
little use for each other, the scholars holding
themselves aloof from the workers, and forming
an autocracy Of intellect. The practical man
regards the scholar as person who has nothing
of nse to him, and has no association with him.
The line between thinkers and doors divides
nations. 1t marked the distinctive difference
between the great nations of ancient times. The
Greeks were thinkers and the Romans were do

A RAILROAD SOLD.
The Toledo. Cincinnati g. st. Louis Bought In
by the Quigley Syndicate.

At noon yesterday the Toledo, Cincinnati e.
st. Louis railway was sold at auction, by w. p.
Fishback and Gen. John McNulta, the special
masters appointed for that purpose. There were
only two qualified bidders, and those were Syl-
vester H Kneeland, representing the Quieley
syndicate of bondholders, and Martin
ODonnel of London, England, who refused
to disclose the interest that ne represented. In
compliance with the conditions of the sale each
deposited with the masters $50. 900, of which
800, 900 was required for the st. Louis division,
and 1885, 900 for the Toledo division. The latter
sold first, an offer Of 5000 900 was made by Mr.
Kneeland. which was the minimum price placed
on the road the masters having hsen forbidden
by the court to receive a bid for smaller sum.
Although negotiations were in progress during
the crying, there was no other bid made, and
the road was sold, Mr.. Fishback remarking that
it was evident that efforts were being made TO
prevent competition
Mr. ODonnel bid 1900, 900 when the ST. Louis
division was offered for SALE The amount was
the least that could be accepted under the in
structions of the court. Mr.. Kneeland offered
1901, 600, and with this the bidding ended,
ODonnell withdrew from the crowd. The road
was therefore, declared sold
The Quigley syndicate are the buyers. They
are the holders of majority of the bonds rep
resenting 81 800 900 of the $3,000,00 of first
mortgage bonds on the ST Louis division. and
ST. 250 900 of the ST. 100000 on the Toledo divis-
ion. The parties interested in the purchase are
represented by a committee composed
of j. NJ. Quigley, John McNab and
Charles T. Harvey. of the Toledo division,
and j. NJ. Quigley H. j. Boardman and W. D.
Hobbs, of the St Louis division. Arrangements
have been made for the consolidation of the in
terests Of the purchasers and this consolidation
will take place on the basis of from one to one
and one half Toledo division bonds
to the amount of $1,000, bong
equal to ST. Louis division bonds
amounting to 81 500. 1t is the intention to reor
ganize the entire system, and it will doubtless
be converted into standard gauge road. w.

the separation, and the good results that would
come from closer association between the two.
The address was one of remarkable interest,
being full of original thought and felicitous al
lusions. The president thanked Dr. Angel, at
the conclusion of his lecture, in behalf Of the
association and his words were Endorsed by
hearty applause.

tons for filling the vacancies in the Board of

Your attention is called to the marked reduction in

again"
..What do you attribute their in
creased popularity top
s'For some time the Partisan fashion
papers have been speaking in high
terms of their use, and the modistes
have advocated their use very largely.
They are much preferable to the hustle.
Manufacturers of the steel hoop have
now perfected that article, and tits now
made as pliable us fabric. The new
hoop is very different from the old erin
oline. Twenty years ago they used to
be made ninety to 100 inches in circum-
ference, and we used to laugh at any as
small rs ninety inches; now they are
made tifty-four and tifty-siN inches in
circumference. expect in the course
of year or so to have them very pop
ular. A lady who wears hoopskirt
say of sixty-four inches in circumfer-
ence can make much better display OF
her dress that without it. The style of
wearing these handsomely embroidered
fronts to dresses can be much improved
on by the use of the skirts, the front be-
inc held more in position and not hang

The site is on sort Of promontory Of the
Hudson river, and is the highest point of
land in Manhattanville. The summit of
this elevation is an almost level plateau of
little more than twenty acres On the
river side the descent is abrupt At its foot,
2oO feet below, are the tracks Of that branch
of the Hudson River railroad which runs
into tbs West Thirtieth street depot.
If the observer on the summit Of the hill
looks to the south, he has opened before him
the long vista of Riverside park. On his
right are the overwhelming surface of the
Hudson and the distant cities of Hoboken
and Jersey City, and on the left the spires
and tall buildings of New York city disap-
pearing in a haze. .

Father, Mother, and Three Sisters Dead.

Father, Mother, and Three Sisters Dead.
Mr.. David Claypool, formerly Sergeant
alarms ofthe New Jersey Senate, and now
Notary Public at Cedarville Cumberland
Co., N. j., makes the following startling
statement: "My father, mother, and three
sisters all died with consumption, and my
lungs were so weak raised blood. Nobody
thought I could live. My work (ship-
smlthing) was very straining on me with my
weak constitution, and was rapidly going
to the grave. While in this condition L
commenced using Mishler's Herb Bitters,
and it saved my life. Because it was so
difficult to get it in this little place, and 1
had improved so much, I stopped taking it
for a time and the result is that have
commenced going rapidly down hill again.
Somehow, Mishler's Herb Bitters gives
appetite and strengthen and builds me up
as nothing else does, and I must have
dozen bottles at once. Use this commu-
nication as you please and if any one wants
to be convinced of its truth, let them write
me and / will make affidavit to it, for T
owe my life to Mishlers Herb Bitters.'
Thesecret of the almost invariable relief
and cure of consumption, dysentery, diar-
rhea, dyspepsia, Indigestion, kidney and
liver complaints, when M1shler's Herb
Bitters is used, is that it contains simple,
harmless, and yet powerful ingredients,
that act on the blood, kidneys, and liver,
and through them strengthens and invigor-
ates the whole system. Purely vegetable
in its composition; prepared by regular
physician; standard medicinal prepare
ton; endorsed by physicians and drug
gists. These are four strong points in favor
of Mishler's Herb Bitters. Mishler's Herb
Bitters is sold by all druggists Price $lo0
per large bottle. bottles for $500
