THE freight discrimination question is to
be judicially pronounced upon in Pittsburg,
where is now on trial the case of Harper,
Speese x Co, VS. the p. c. & y. road TO re-
cover some So, 600 alleged to be due because
of discrimination in the price charged for
freight The plaintiff alleges that they pur-
chased some 2lS acres of land from the Char
tiers Block Coal company, and began to Cd.
crate the coal mines therein. During the
two years the plaintiff were in business they
shipped by the p. C. & Y. road some 40, 600
tons of coal, for which they paid 20 cents per
ton. Owing to their inability to compete
with other firms In the same line of business
they sold their plant worth $40, 600 Tor $1,000.
They then discovered that there was an
agreement between the Z. c. Il y, and the
CHARTERS Block Coal company, under which
all purchases or lease from the latter named
company should be charged a uniform
freight, and that in violation OF this agree
ment, Sanders Il Co, and other firms had
been allowed rebate of cents per ton.
They figured up their loss resulting from
this discrimination at $4,000 and brought
suit for that amount Such outrsges will
cease when the ever growing louder cry OF
democratic enforcement of the constitution
penetrates over the state.

THE discussion in the pages OF the lScisn.
tNc american of the possibility of construct
ing machine that would initiate the flight
OF birds, has aroused Pittsburg wig maker
10 nlng challenge at the American associs-
ton Tor the advancement OF science. He pro-
poses to deposit 81, 900 as a wager that he will
"produce model which will rise without
the aid OF balloon power" and will continue
its flight as long as the power of the spring
lasts. This is not half so wonderful as il
sounds, for there are children's toys, made OF
piece OF twisted tin, which are shot into the
air and keep UP their motion for some sec
onds by the aid of a spring, but the Pitts
burg man proceeds to make the startling an
nouncement that he will use the q. 600 for the
construction OF motor which will dispense
with all the difficulties OF serial navigation,
and will take him, with the acceptor of his
challenge, to California and back.
The trouble with flying machines lies in
the necessity OF having very light machinery
OF great power, as those W no have noticed the
immense muscles of a birds wing well know.
Steam engines are two heavy, electric mo-
tors far lighter, but still too heavy. Now
comes this Pittsburg wig maker with the
claim that he has discovered means of using
an atmospheric vacuum rs a motive power,
Natural gas is not enough. Pittsburg wants
not only the earth but also the air.

William Buckets.

Holland is this month honoring the men,
oay OF William Buckets, who in 1886 first
nalted behring's and packed them down in
casks. Previously herrings of Holland
had gone to waste, save such as could be
Immediately consumed. The discovery
that they could be preserved for market by
salting, simple as it was, had consequences
OF enduring value to the country which
holds the discoverer as one Of the greatest
benefactors. The salted fish of Holland
cover the world, and the wealth that has
than that of gold mines, and more benefi-
cent, too, for it was food instead of metal.
1t was seemingly little thing to discover,
Just as it was to find how an egg would
stand on its end. But the man who first
developes an idea of value to the world
wins its gratitude according to the value
Of his gift to it rather than according to
the labor of making it. And five hundred
years ago, in the infancy of science, it was
not 30 small a thing as it would be now to
find out how to preserve fish. The oppor-
,tunities nowadays for discoveries benefi-
cehtto man would seem TO be small be-
cause of the many that have been already
made. Yet iih.s is the very era of dis
covery. 1t is not made o. &c simple things
- that of the Hollander, but yet II may &c
made as easily, considering the far greater
light that knowledge and science shed on
the discoverer's path.
What is especially notable about the
Arxxuwp <<R .,A Al..@ ia.
have gained imperishable favor by the
szercise OF little independent thought and
veuturesome inquiry. He leaped before
NJ fellow hshermen, who followed in the
% ruts, by seemingly small bit of rea-
soning and action, but it was enough.
And the lesson is, to think and act.

Then II one comes, be II ever no light, they
acquire disciples who eagerly watch their
words and look upon them as the inspired
utterances Of a prophet, or the accurate
conclusions of a man of science whose
widom has outstripped his day and genera
tion. Mr.. Virgins, of Canada, with the
prudence that is the most admirable trait
Of his character, does not venture TO locate
his prophecies near home, as in the event
OF failure his massacre by disappointed
mob might ensue.
When men expect disaster and IL don't
come they naturally feel indignant at the
waste of time and courage that has taken
place, and If Il is solely due 10 any one man
they feel disposed to give him little real
disaster as an antidote for his prophetic
fever.
But Virgins is beyond the line, and ex-
tradition cannot reach him. The govern.
ment should not fail to insert a clause in
the new treaty providing for the transfer
of false prophets. They incite disorder.
demoralizing entire communities and caus-
ing the loss of millions of dollars while
thousands wait with bated breath the ad-
vent of foretold calamities.
An astronomer, Richard Proctor, has
most vigorously denounced the reckless.
almost criminal talk of Mr.. Virgins, but
unfortunately that rascal has aroused a
feeling of alarm among ignorant people
in the earthquake region who cannot
understand the reasons that men of
sounder scientific attainment give for re.
jectlng the earthquake prophecies.
