CAPT. EADs is q man Of genius. lie has
the capacity to absorb and utilize the ideas
Of the best engineering brains all over the
world, and when they have failed to sur
mount difficulties his own inventive re-
sources have made him successful in
solving new and perpleXing problems in
engineering science. Capt. Eads is ambi-
tious to perform great feats in his profes-
sion when simpler and less expensive
methods would accomplish the same or bet
ter results. The American people de-
sire cheap transportation and to secure
competition betweenrail and water ireights.
Capt, Eads has done good work In bring
ing the attention Of the people to the Te-
huantepcc route for interocean transit, but
his plans are expensive, and possibly Of
doubtful feasibility. The producers and
consumers Of hreadstuiTs are not willing to
pay tax Of five or six cents bushel on
wheat when far cheaper and simpler plan
of rail highway would afford them the
cheapest form Of transportation that can be
secured across the isthmus Of Tehuantepec.

AMONG the removals neccssitatcd by the
progress Of reform was that Of Mrs, Mary
McGroarty, postmistress at College lIill,
one Of the suburbs Of Cincinnati, who was
hustled out last week. Mrs. McGroarty is
the widow Of Stephen McGroarty an Irish
man who came to America in early child
hood, and, in course Of time, became a
uccoesrul lawyer in Cincinnati. When the
War Of the rebellion came on McGroarty
enlisted on the Union side, and was sue
cessivcly promoted until he reached the
rank of colonel and brevet brigadier general
at the muster out In 1865. But he did not
secure promotion without risks. lie was
fhot through the right lung at the battle Of
Carnifez Ferry, in West Virginia, and this
wound, with number Of others, caused his
death in 1870. lie was Democrat, but
this fact did not stand in the way OF his
appointment TO Office bya Republican ad-
ministration. lie was made a collector Of
internal revenue, and, at his death, tue
College Hill postofiice was given to his
widow, who discharged the duties Of the
Office with fidelity until this reform admin.
