TIE D. 4gG r HOE.

The week just closing witnesses
the death of Hoe the inventor OF
the wonderful printing press that
bears his name The present gen
eration-as will each successive one
owes a heavy debt Of gratitude to
the pluck and brains of this man j..
Ben Franklin left US a printing
press around which gathers a halo
because of It's history and It's be-
ing linked with the name Of so
lllu>trious philosopher. But Hoe
took up this idea. gave it wings, ca
paclty and perfection. The ire
mendous strides takenin journalism
have the Hoe press to thank. Hoe
never wearied of invention so long
as any other press could do the
same work as his in gwen time
His ambition was to leave no path
untrodden that would beat his ri
walls. II was worthy, commenda-
bic ambition and he carried it to
his grave. He gave the world a
press that took its feed from eight
continuous rolls Of paper and print
ed and folded $1,000 copies an hour.
These magnificent machines COM
posed of over million pieces of
metal, stimulated the modern news
papers to faster work An event
.ranspired in Washington of ma
,iOnal importance, a shock of cleo
tricity throbbed 1t over the wires to
New York, the news passed into
type In ten minutes, in ten minutes
more was stereetyped and in ten
more a thousand newspapers per
minute were pouring out of the
Hoe press giving this intelligence
TO the world. The throb Of the
steam, the whizz Of belts and the
undistingu:shable whirr Of count
less wheels all mingled in a maze
Of metal, seemed to the dullest i'm
agination a mechanical monster
endowed with life and intellect, Civ
ing human thought to millions, and
whose rumbles sometimes shook
the world. This product of Hoes
brain has oftentimes been of more
service to the nation than standing
armies, and every one now in opera
too is tower of active intelligence
reared along the bulwark of univer-
sal education and human liberty
The bones Of such a man need
10 other monument than simple
stone Every printed
page is a reminder of his life and |
every printing press that revolves
will ring requiem for his death.

The Congressional Question

The Austin Reveille thinks it has
discovered a political trick in Cas-
sidy's interest by which Woodburn
Is to be made to run for Supreme
Judge. This the Reveille thinks
means that a weak man is to be put
up against Cassidy to be beaten.
The APPEAL fails to see where there
is any political trickery in the
above. WOODBURY. has been twice
elected to Congress aud is still a
poor man, which speaks well for
his honesty. He has always been
asked to make the run when the
fight seemed like forlorn hope and
be has won on these desperate &C.
easions. Woodburn has spent his
time, brains aad money for the
party, and if he wants Judgeship
he should have it. There is abso-
lutely nothing ia the Office Of Con-
gresham at the present salary 1t
costs as much as the salary amounts
to to live in Washington The Su-
preme bench offers a more attract
i've billet for public man and we
cannot see why Woodburn's fidelity
and services to the party ought not
20 be rewarded with such a place.

LIFE INSURANCE.
The Mutual Reserve Fund Life Asso.
 efatIOn.

The Mutual Reserve Fund Life Asso-
 citation.
 We call attention to the advertisement of the Mutual Reserve Fund Life association of New York in to-day's issue. This asso- citation has recently opened an office in this city and organized local board of directors consisting of some of our most prominent citizens. Parties who anticipate taking out insurance would do.well to investigate the system adopted by this company and judge for themselves.
 We clip the following from the Philadel- phia Times of October 31, 1885:
 It is fact to which the public cannot be ndifer- ent, that the Mutual Reserve Fund Life association of New York has given exhibition of unexam- pied in the effort to establish the mutu al fund system of life insurance and It has attained it's success when there a flood tide of popular prejudice against the many bogus or grave yard swndles which prostituted the mutval system to the disgraceful vilainy An honest and cap able management of such company has, in the case of the New York association clearly present. ed the merits of the system and it may be accepted as established as of the permanent features of life insurance in the United States
 Two thousand prominent New York citi- zens are insured, each for $10,00O, in this fine company.

A SHOCKING ACCIDENT.

August G. Machalowski and His
 Twenty Year old Daughter Killed by
 a Train.
 BRIDGEPORT, April 30.-At o'clock this morning the first passenger train from New York struck and killed August G. Macholowskl aged 59 years, and his daughter Mary, 20 years, at the Warren avenue crossing of the Consolidated road. Two horses which the unlucky man was driving were also killed. Machalowski has been for some time one of the city garbage collectors, and when he started out in the morning it has been usual for him to take his daughter to the Warner Brothers corset shop near Seaside Park, where she was employed. This morning father and daughter started from North Bridgeport at the usual hour, and they ap- preached the track just as the way train emerged from under the Park avenue bridge. The electric gong at the crossing was ringing loudly, but the danger signal was not needed and the span of horses was driven on the track most deliberately. The engineer of the train said to a reporter that Machalowski and his companion both turned and looked at the engine with apparent coolness. He had not time to reduce the train's speed and the engine struck the heavy wagon and the horses squarely, throwing the occupants 20 feet to one side of the track and instantly killing them.
