Hewever much war may be deplored
in general, it has often happened in the
worlds history that a single war has
given a greater impetus to real civiliza-
ton than centuries OF peace. The ex
asperating conflict into which Glad
stone and the English have been drag
ged by the ears in the Soudan district
is likely to have this result if present
plans are carried out. The camel and
the oasis have been for thousands of
years the principal factors In African
commerce. Thanks to the Soudan war,
the railway and the pipe line are to
supersede these antiquated necessities
of trade In that sandy country.
In order to transport the troops from
Suakim to Berber railway is to be
laid. To furnish sure supply of water
for engines and troops a pipe line Is
also tokbe laid contiguous to the track.
An experienced Pennsylvania pipe
layer, A. W. Smiley by name, has been
employed to superip. tend this par of
the work and the necessary pumps have
been ordered from a weil-known Amer
lean firm. The success Of the Penn
sylvanis oil men in piping their product
hundreds of miles, owes mountain and
plain, has demonstrated clearly that
water can be conveyed elong desert
lines of travel hundreds and even
thousands OF miles, if necessary. What
the irrepressible Yankee can do at home
he can do anywhere else, and naturally
he is called upon to introduce the first
pipe line in the deserts Of the Seudan.
The great Importance of the employ.
ment of the new method of travel and
the new source of water supply in the
Soudan district is not to be measured
by its usefulness in single campaign,
II the railway and pipe line are laid to
aid in the Soudan war they will remain
as commercial factors after the war is
over, and having been found TO WORK
well on a line few hundred miles iu
length, it is naturally to be expected
that in few years the locomotive and
Its accompanying pipe line viii have as
effectuslly displaced the camel and
ossis in the desert portions Of Africa as
the former has the old stage coach and
roadside tavern in this country. II it
be urged that this is counting chickens
before they are Matched the retort
may be made with good deal OF force
that the man Of one hundred years ago
who would have prophesied palace cars
and pipe lines during the present cen.
tury would have been regarded ss 3

Dredging Up a Scalp.

A piece of human scalp, not larger
than the palm of hand, to which the
flesh still adheres, has been the centre
of no httle attraction recently at New
Haven. 1t was caught up from the
bottom OF the Sound, with companion
piece of the same size. by one of the
great iron dredges of the steamer d iisy
E. Smith. The steamer was fishing on
tine thirty-foot drift off outside of the
new light at the entrance o. the New
Haven hsrbor. A long pull on the
dredger had been completed, the dredge
master had signalled for the dredges to
be pulled In. The men the s'arboard
side were Mortified to see clinging to
the nose irons of their dredge two Sec
tons of a mans scalp. They had
evidently not been in the water long.
The dredge apparently in its course
along the bottom had raked part OF the
head of a corpse. and had torn off two
sections of the covering of the head.
The men were unable to find the body
in continuing to dredge. and soon after
took IN their dredges and came into
port
From its appearance the scalp is evi
IDENTIFY that of middle-aged white man.
The body must be lying directly in the
path of incoming and outgoing steam
boats, and in the course of time will
rise to the surface. Old oystermen say
1t would be next to impossible now to
find the body Ill such deep water with
dredges, and the best way to get 1t is
10 wait till II floats. Ii was rumored to-
night that the body wss that of a sui
eide of one of the Old Line boats, but
no such person is found to be missing
to- day. So far there has not fallen the
slightest ray of light upon the mystery
enshrouding the ghastly find.
