Too Late With His Invention,

There was an exultant smile on his face
as he walked into the Office Of well-known
capitalist, and there was proud ring IN
his voice Us he said:
"For twenty years have lived from hand
to mouth, waiting tor something to turn up.
1t has finally come. l have made discov-
cry which, if you will back it with few
hundred dollars, will give Us both for
tunes"
"State your case"
"Weil, Sir, l have discovered that banana
peelinss can be utilized for all kinds Of table
Jellies \ PecS OF Old peelings can be made
to bring forth twelve tualb!ers Of the finest
cIrrant jell, and tbs profit is
Hold Oh right there" interrupted the
capitalist; you are just two years TOO late.
A chap in Chicago not only discovered that,
but he found q way TO work in apple rinis
and cores and orange peel, Gnd we can't in-

MUST THE HEADLIGHT CO..?

A Railroad Official Thinks the Locomo-
tive Lamp Is Not Necessity.
"There are 25, ,0O0 locomotives in the United
States" said railway Official, "and every
one Of them is furnished with a headlight
\ locomotive without q headlight would
look like a dog without nose, and most
people would say that it is next TO impossi-
bic to run locomotive without big lamp
in front Yet 1 am of tho opinion that these
lamps are almost useless, and that they
could be taken OF of most locomotives with
out detriment to anybody. Headlights are
not in use in England, and we have used
them in America simply because somebody
used them before US We have become 50
accustomed to them that most people think
that locomotive without lamp could not
be run with safety, but am convinced that
there is more danger in their use than in
their absence. 1 speak, Of course, OF road
engines, and not Of those used in yards.
ION road engine the headlight is Of no
earthly use TO the engineer; it oUStructS his
vision so that he cannot see his switch. lights,
and l think that every thinking engineer
will come to the conclusion that he would
rather run in the night without u lamp than
with it, as he can see better in tue dark
Red cannot be seen distinctly under such q
powerful light when tine engine is running
rapidly. a green light under the brilliant
illumination of q headlight appears yellow,
and blue light appears pale know of
accidents which have occurred from this
cause, and the eyesight of every engineer
having night run is put under terrible
strain by continually gazing ahead into
such light surrounded by such dense dark
ness
"If there is any good argument in favor
of the retention of headlights on road loco
motives it is that travellers by public high
ways who have to cross railroads at grade
can see the train coming at greater dis
tance by means OF the headlights. But it
would be cheaper for the roads to rig up
automatic warning bolIs at every grade
crossing than to continue the use of so many
unneedeI lamps The new electric headlight
put on the market a few years ago was q
success as q light giver, but it has not been
generally introduced, simply because rail
road managers know that headlights OIL
road locomotives are pracaually useless, and
1fat more powerful light would be posi-
lively dangerous. ."-ChicaGo Her.ld Train

AN EVENING FANTASY.

Tho tender light has flown indeel,
While DER IT, waves and o'or tho sands
Some sea sprite piping on reed
Wakes melodies of oceans lands;
And DER the golden brim of day 81
The music dfips, and so away.
Oh sweet as minstrelsy in dreams
Which haunt tine weary, aching brain,
And fresh as April rainfall, seems
The glamour of this sea.blown strain
These titful pipings soft and low
Anu faint as footballs in the snow.
Far on the purpling verge, ship -.
Goes swiftly on as evening fails; X.
Red as the bloom on chilihood's lip, :l
The low light fingers Oh the sails.
Yon happy ship that eastward fares
Towards harbors lighted first by day
That ship, white winged wanderer, bears
Our dreams, our hopes, our hearts away
Oh, flying sails, delay, delay
The starlight trembles in tho sands,
Where We two pass like phantom forms,
Like harbingers of coming storms.
With noiselesS tread and claSping hands,
And as we pass, behold! the moon,
That vagabond, in the les of Juno,
Peers through din boughs where close
leaves fold
Their greeness DER its heart Of gold
Oh, dreams that rise; oh, songs that wake
While stars their twinkling censurc shake
Dreams Of brown sailors sea songs sung
In some pathetic, southern tongue,
Dre;.ins OF white sails upon the sen,
vi titful bursts of ninstrelsy,
Ofradiant forms, of starlike eyes, p.&%
OF faces fair as PARADISE
If Paradise so fair may be-
Dreams of gray towers that seaward frowr
Above silent Spanish town.
All, look! these ships upon the main,
Behold, cen as they hasten past,
Those phantom sailors on tho mast
And list the songs they sing, the notes
Tuned sweetly il their tawny throats:
I'VE come," they cry, "sweet Spain, sweet
SPAIN"
Then fa.les each shady mast. Away!
These be gray ghosts of yesterday.

Trade Sluggish-A Tight Money Market-One
of the Unfavorable Conditions.

Oh the CuIaVOfaDle COnO1CIOnS.
INDIANAPOLIS, April 16.
AS usual at tax-paying time, the money mar
ket is a little close Merchants are cautious,
and, naturally trade is more or less unfavorably
affected, and in nearly all departments there is
sluggish movement Then, again, the labor
troubles are not SO definitely settled that bust
ness men can feel perfectly free to branch out in
any direction. Take dry goods. The prospects
of higher prices DO not induce merchants to
stock up ahead in the most staple and most
called for articles The same remark will apply
to staple groceries. The indications are strong
that sugars and coffees will advance quite
sharply in the next sixty days, but no grocer
buys except for immediate requirements. The
hardware men are not doing the business they
expected to, this branch Of trade feels labor
troubles as quickly as any, as it puts
check upon building. Leather dealers are not so
busy as last month. The hide market rules
tame still. The produce markets are fairly
active Eggs steady at quototon. The
poultry market is little off. Arrivals are
large.
The local situation is much the same as for
some days past. Arrivals of all cereals are light,
and prices are obtained on property for local
consumption and for points near by which could
not be realized on grain in Eastern markets.
Heavier shipments of corn to this market are
looked for in the near future, and, with the in
crease, prices are likely to decline somewhat
To-day they ruled as follows:

In the process of drying grass into hay most OF
the volatile oils which give green herbage its
delicate flavor and odor are lost But some
farmers have found that putting clover and other
grasses in barns while rather green and mixing
with them enough dry straw to absorb moisture
not only preserves the flavor In the hay, but q
portion IL communicated to the straw, making IL
much better for mich cows. 1t is possible that
farmers may yet take TO sowing sweet vernal
grass for the sole purpose of favoring their win
ters supplies Of dry hay or straw.
