THE DIFFERENCE.

The Republican Convention inserted
. silver plank in its platform very simi.
lar to the one adopted At St. Louis. II
says nothing about the action Of the st.
Louis convention on the silver question,
but attacks an utterance Of President
Cleveland made in . message to Con.
grsss. -fvirginia Report. (Dsm.)
The above is sample campaign lie.
It is choice specimen, unique, in that IT
is three lies in one. The suggestion that
there is . silver plank in the Democratic
National platform is lie pure and sim.
pie; the implication that the st. Louis
convention acted on the silver question
at all Il . subordinate and collateral lie
and the third Is . kind Of springing, OF
resultant lie, Is it were, growing out Of
the two others, to the effect that ~ the
Republicans had acted on the matter just
- the Democrats had acted therefore the
Republicans had done nothing at all.
There 10 one difference, brother, be.
tween the two planks, which you may
not have noted. The National Repub
lican silver plank is in the National Re
publican platform; whilst the National
Democratic silver plank il not in the Ma

An excellent article is now going the
rounds of the press. 1t is as follows.
1.-THE publisher Of newspaper has one

has the newspaper to sell and the space

can do so il he chooses. and he does, as a
matter Of practical fact, furnish great

follow that he ought to be expected to do
it. 1t ought to be recognized as contri.

her nothing less than 8 speed of thirty miles
an hour, speed quito equal TO the average
rate of railway travel, and so far superior
to that attained by ocean steamers or torpe-
do boats that they would be simply nowhere

tor proposes. Her length over sl iE about

two feet above the bottom OF the keel, is
circular opening about six inches 10 diane
ter II looks like the usual hole for pro-
peller shaft. To the hole nozzle is TO be
attached, and water elected through it with
such tremendous force, the Inventor says, as
to drive the boat forward at The rate of thirty
miles an hour. This idea of moving boat
by pumping out continuous stream Of wa
ter is not new one. The British govern
ment several years ago built vessel called
by hydraulic pressure but she proved failure.
Private individuals from time to time have
caught the infection Of the idea, but accom-
piished nothing 10 recent years not much
has been heard of this method of propulsion
because the conviction is pretty general that
the theory ia impracticable.
In the Brooklyn boat instead of discharg-
ing paretiveIy big stream of water the
stream will be one and one quarter inches in
diameter. The pressure will be, it is said,
something like ten thousatd pounds to the
square inch-simDly immense. The new
boat is to have engines of 500 horse power,
tremendously powerful engines for q boat
of her size, aud the inventor says that the
stream OF water these engines vii! pump
through that one and one-quarter.inch noz.
zle will be as riged as bar of steel. liza

axe. he sage, the water will turn the edge oi

small orlGoe In her bow, through which q
stream of water is to be discharged in the
came manner az through the Stern. By this
means, 1t is contended, she can be almost ins
stantly stopped and driven backward near.
ly IS fast as forward. Another popularity will
be the absence of any rudder, because the
n6zzle through which the steel.like stream
OF water is discharged can be turned to the
right or left, thus making the boat spin
around much quicker than q rudder could
do 1t. DR.. Walter NJ. Jackson, the inventor,
claims to have applied his hydraulic theory
to fifty foot launch two years ago and to
have obtained a speed of twelve miles an
hour, the stream OF water that pushed the
launch at this rate being forced through a
hole only one.sixteenth of an inch in diane.

The STREET GAMBLERS OF CH1NA.-One
never failing source of amusement was
watching the street gamblers. You see a
man, generally the most innocent looking
of Cinnamon, if one Chinaman can be said
to look in any way different from another,
unless in size, walking along with what
looks like rather large umbrella. He.
stops in what be thinks to be convenient
place, always near corner, sticks this ma
chine on the ground, which In some ingeDi'
GUS way becomes gambling table, marked
into squares and spots. Iu en- instant he is
surrounded by crowd of ell ages, and the
game goes merrily on. Suddenly cry of po'
lice goes up and in an instant man and table
have mysteriously disappeared and the
crowd has scattered. believe the law is
strict against gambling, but the police seem
about as efficient to stop and prevent 1t as
are the police of our country. never
could get to understand the game, but it
seems to be run on the good old principle
that the odds should be in favor of the bank
as the bank seemed always to win. After
watching the game for several days, l came
to the conclusion that the person who raised
tho cry of police must confederate, as it
was always done when the etakes were
quite large, that is, for that game, as only
pieces of copper were placed on the board,
and in his anxiety to get away the man
would not wait to hand back TO the players
their money, but would disappear, money,
table, and all.-SdnlueL f. Farrar in Chicago
