EXPLOITING A IMPLICATION SCHEME

In what IT pleases paper to call Wall street
Talk scheme for the unhcaton' OF the prlnci-
pal railroads in the South was publicly exploded yes
to-day. That the negotiations were approaching
successful issue was denied IN The Tribune on sunday
on the authority Of Calvin Brce Of the East Ten
nessee and George s. Scott OF the Richmond ana Dan
vIle systems For obvious reasons, 1t was suggested
in tho Talk, that If under the new arrangement the
railroads became "dictatorial and oppressive the
Iowa example OF railroad commissioners would DC
copied IN Georgia. Alabama and Tennessee Win lo'S
Of avidlty.'
Two of the three States named have boards Of rail-
road commissioners, and in one the powers OF the
board have been almost autocratlc. The system was
adopted in Georgia IN 1879 and in Alabama early In
1881. In Tennessee the law was repealed IN leo6,
and the commissioners went out Of Office at the close
OF tho year Other States which might be affected
by the uuifcatOn7 have been equipped IN me same
way. Boards Of railroad commissioners were estaD-
lshed I'm Kentucky In 1850, IN SOutn CalOlDa I'D 1910
and IN Virginia In 1877.

SPEAKING IN PUBLIC.


CONGRESSMAN Bourke Cockran's Sugges- |
lions to Young Mon.
My advice to young man desiring |
to become successful speaker Ii never
to talk unless you have something to
say. Always be careful to acquire
some information to contribute to the
subject under discussion. and then say
what you have to say in the fewest pos
sible words. II q young man follow
this rule he may not be great speaker.
but he will become a good speaker and
a useful one. would advise listening
to the best speakers, and better, care
full study OF the speeches Of great ora
tors, such as Burke. As to training,
the study and practice Of elocution are
certainly great advantages, as are also
certain trained gestures. Always boar
in mind that an audience Is most inter-
ested when you appeal to its intelli-
gence. The great fault OF public
speaking nowadays is an attempt to
be oratorical. Rhetoric and imagery
are simply the ornaments OF ora
tory-argument In its substance.
II a man has clear. convince
ing argument to present, and pre-
sents it in an argumentative way, he
is always pretty certain OF challenging
the attention of his audience. Unless a
young man has q cultivated mind he
can not become q successful speaker.
| He may talk, but the real speaker must
not use language merely for the sake Of
using it. Every unnecessary sentence
is a blot upon his speech; it mars the
effect and tries the patience Of an audi
ence. The province OF q speech Is tt
inpart information or Ideas on giver
subject, and lead an audience to agret
with your conclusions, whether it be {
jury or a mass meeting. OF course l
YOU have no Information to presen
your speech will lack interest as vel
Us substance. Never say any thing TO
the mere sake OF the sound. OF cours'
it is advisable to express your thought
in the most striking language you cal
command. ! would advise the cult
walton OF extemporaneous speaking a
much as possible. II a man is natura
and says what he feels without attempt
ing to be one of the great orators OF tn
world, he will always be an attractiv
speaker and useful one. As to afte
dinner speaking, it is the most Difficult
of all unless you have some toast thu
involves some definite subject. For m
part l think the ordinary after-dinne
speech is poor imitation Of the en-
mans part at the minstrels. But whe
: after-dinner speaking is part OF di'
cussion of an important subject, then
may become very valuable. But
,. those made to amuse, think the mil
!, strel show the better of the two.-H

SYMPTOMS OF CATARRH.

Dull, heavy headache, obstruction of the nasal
passages, discharges falling from the head into
the throat, sometimes profuse, watery, and acrid,
ut Others thick, tenacious, mucous, purulent,
bloody and putrid; the eyes are weak, watery
and inflamcd; there is ringing in the ears, deaf
ness, hacking or coughing to clear the throat,
expectoration of offensive matter, together with
scabs from ulcers; the voice Is changed and has
a nasal twang: the breath Is offensive; smell and
taste are impaired; there Is sensation of dizzi-
ness with mental depression, hacking cough
and general debility. If you have all, or any
considerable number of these symptoms, you are
suffering from Nasal Catarrh. The more com
plicated your disease has become, the greater
the number and diversity of symptoms
Thousands of cases annually, without manifest
ing half of the above symptoms, result In con
sumption, and end In the grave. No disease Il

An experienced shoemaker says
that backing greatly shortens the life
of shoes. As backing can't very we'll
be dispensed with, though, he advises
that the shoes, or rather those parts
which are polished, be literally rubbed
with oil. Such treatment, about once
every two weeks, or thereabouts. but
after the backing has first been
scraped off, will, he says, not only
make the leather more pliable, and
consequently easier on the foot, but
materially curtail the shoemaker's bill.

ODD WEDDING RINGS.

How the Natives OF the Upper Congo
Country Dispose of their Savings.
Lieutenant Won Francois, the African
explorer, has recently described .
strange custom among the Bayanzi,
who live for many miles along the Up
per Congo. The custom would seem
to make life good deal OF q
burden to their married women.
Brass rods. which are the fa-
vorite currency in the country, are
welded into great rings around tho
necks of the wives. Many OF these
rings worn by the women whose hus-
bands are well-to-do weigh as much as
thirty pounds. and this burden must
be carried around by the poor women
as long as they live.
Frequently" says Lieutenant Won
Francois. zone sees poor woman
whose neck is raw and sore under the
heavy weight, and In places the skin
is rubbed off by the ring. This Is a
sure sign that the ring has been re-
Gently welded around her neck, for
after a time the skin becomes calloused,
and then the strange ornament pro-
duoes no abrasion. But the weight d
an inconvenience. They never get
used to it. and It Ia q perpetual tax
upon their energies. In every crowd
OF women may be seen q number who
are supporting the ring with their
hands, and thus for time relieving
their weary shoulders Of the heavy
burden. It may be said that with every
| movement OF their bodies the rings
give them discomfort.
"A ring is never put around . wo.
mans neck until she ia believed t6
have attained her full physical devel
opment. Once on It Is no easy matter
to get 1t of. The natives have no sucf
thing as q file, aud though they car

1t is very difficult for them to cut thu
thick mass OF metal in two. Womer
who increase largely In flesh after tn,

and instances OF this sort have beel
known to occur.
"Yet these women regard the cum
brous ornament with pride, imagine
that 1t enhances their Importance AM

SLANG LANGUAGE.
The Evolution of Coarse Tramp and
Gypsy yernacular.

The Evolution OF Coarse Tramp and
Gypsy yernacular.
OF late years literature and society
have shown an unmistakable tendency
todisinter from the unliterary depths OF
the still current speech OF the very low
est classes Of the people many hundreds
of words that are MOTTO be found in the
dictionaries. These words, or most OF
them, were formerly known as ''cant,"
..aash, ""pedlars,', 'Greek, "'jargon,"
..aibberish," but are now included UNI
der the generic name Of ''slang." But
the slang OF our times is by no means
confined to these anachronisms and In
clude many legitimate meanings and
used by sense sometimes ludicrous
and always offensive to refined ear
and correct taste; such as the
substitution OF .dreadfully," ''aw-
fully" and other explosives OF
similarly .forcible feebleness," for the
good old word .'very;" as In such COM
mon phrases as an lawfully pretty
GIRL" an lawfully funny joke"
..dreadfully fine woman ''scream-
ing farce" a .'marrow-freezing TRACE
dy"-all OF which expressions are
slang of the worst kind. Slang that
was formerly confined to tramps, beg
CARS. gypsies and thieves. and in a
modified degree and OF somewhat diff
fererent origin and species, to trade and
professional people. when confdentially
speaking to one another OF the prac-
tices and mysteries OF their various
callings, has in our day-and more
especially within the last half century
invaded the educated and semi-edu-
Gated classes in England. America
and France, and all free countries, al
though it has not yet. to any thing like
the same extent, permeated the liter
erature and conversation OF the Euro
pean nations other than the two
named, where liberty has more or less
degenerated into license, both In speech
and action Democracy, that Is ram
pant In these three great nations, Is
the real parent Of vulgar slang, as II
threatens to be Of many other anomalies
and abuses, until a time perhaps
rapidly approaching for all three, wher

revolution shall turn the thoughts and
language Of men and women Into 9
more elevated channel than that II
which peace, prosperity and concomi
tant luxury and corruption have caused
them to flow. BlackpoOd's Magazine
