The Gulf Stream is a current "indigo
blue" water floating out of the Gulf of
Mexico and through the Atlantic ocean.
It is % to $50 miles wide, and flows with
a velocity of one-half to five miles an
hour. For what purpose it was created
nobody can tell no more than person
can tell what Doctor Mary Walker was
made for. It's existence is a streamend-
Gus mystery, and he who attempts to
solve it will be plunged into a gulf of
dark despair.

AN authenticated Washington Associat-

president has made no arrangements as
to where he will spend his summer vaca-

on that subject. He will probably go to
the Adirondacks as usual.

the consideration of the legislative

A STATISTICAL expert calculates that if
100000 babies started together in the
race of life 100000 would drop in the first
year; $4,000 in the second, and $4,000 in
the third year. At the end of 45 years
about half of them would be still in the
race. 60 years would see 10000 still at
it. At the end of 80 years there would be
$4,000 remaining on the track, Is years
later the number would be reduced to 223,
and the winner would quit the track for
ever at the age of 108.

fully equal those OF the first quarter in 1885.
Bad roads are very generally reported
throughout the country and collections from
interior points are slow. Money is in only
fair demand at most points and the markets
rule easy at unchanged rates. Improvement
in general trade is reported at st. Louis and
Kansas City. The iron industry continues
depressed by the check to industrial enter
prises caused by extended strikes as well as
ough enhanced cost of fuel for furnaces.
Anthracite coal is firm at the advance and
in better demand. The coal pool has not ar
ranged percentages for 1886 vet.
The industrial situation is better in spite
of the prolongation of the fight by the rail-
ways against the Knights of Labor at the
West. The knitting mill strikes at Cohoes
and New Britain, Conn. the boot and shoe
strike at Beverly, Mass, and that among the
suit makers at New York, have largely dis
appeared, cutting down the total striking

A Long Distance TeIephone Trensmitter.

YOUNGSTOWN, O., March 90.-After three
years close application, DIR. Luther C. Rose,
residing at Palmyra, this county, has in
vented what is known as the "Rose long
distance telephone transmitter." A thorough
test was made of the device yesterday, using
a number six wire over the United Lines
Telegraph Company running to Freeport,
Ill, with return loop on other poles. max
ing the distance S7S miles. One transmitter
was placed in the Office of the Rose Electric
Company and the other in the laboratory,
two blocks away. The faintest whisper was
heard distinctly over the long line, and the
ticking of a watch was plainly audible to
persons at the other transmitter. 1t is en-
tirely unlike the Blake transmitter in action
and principle, and DIR. Rose claims that with
this device conversation can be readily car
ried on by persons 1000 miles apart The
test was made in the presence of prominent
capitalists, who have organized company
here to manufacture it. Next Sunday it
will be given a severe test over a wire run
ming to New York, then to Chicago and back
here.
