SCREW FERRYBOATs. - Steamboat
men say that the side-wheel ferryboai
will soon be thing of the past, and
boats with propellers at each end will
supcrsede them. The new idea is en-.
dorsed by many ship-builders. practi
cal architests and marine engineers
The important advantage Of the pro.
peller is that it takes less room on the
boat, gives greater speed on less con.
sumption of coal, and can be easier
handled, besides costing less. The
shaft will run through the boat from
end to end, with an average size pro.
peller at bow and stern. The first
boat of this pattern has been designed
by ]. Shields Wilson, and is being
built at Newburgh, N. Y. 1t will be
200 feet long, have triple expansion
engines, with cylinders lSa, p and AZ
inches in diameter and improved steel
boilers. The screw on the stern OF the
boat will push the vessel ahead, while
tho one at the bow will pull. When q
stop is required, the reversal of the
propellers will check the boat very
quickly. The new bout is looked upon
with great interest by those interested
in maritime affairs. - Philadelphia

Could John C. Calhoun have lived
until the present time, he would have
had an opportunity of verifying the
ancient adage all things come to him
that waits" For several years past
the United States Supreme Court has
been handing down decisions in favor
Of the doctrine of Estates Rights" !"
which Calhoun 50 ably advocated, but
last week the Court made two deci-
sions which are in effect far beyond
anything ever claimed by Calhoun
and his associates. One of these deci-
sions upholds the constitutional:ty OF
the Alabama State law providing tests
for color blindness in all employees OF
railroads in, or passing through the
State, thus demonstrating that State
law is superior to Congressional legis-
lation, and The regulations of the Uni
ed States Interstate Commerce Com
mission. The other affirms the deci-
sion OF the Supreme Court Of Iowa to
the effect that under the prohibitory
law of that State no liquors can be made
within its borders no matter where
they are to be sold. These decisions
are the more remarkable when the fact
is remembered that two-thirds of thu
Justices of the Supreme Court are Re
publicans. How the old-fashionet
States rights Democrats must enjoy
these decisions, proving as they do tina
the principle for which they fought 81
many years was the right one. Per
haps after few more decisions lik
the above, rabid Republican editor,
like Murat Halstead and Whitclav
Beid will agree that this country is
confederation of Sovereign States.

ONLY few days ago we read an ac-
count of . fearful fight in a church at
s.. Paul, Mimi, caused by some evil
charges and slanderous gossip against
the minister. Right on top of this
comes another account of shameful
church row, which occurred at Fulton,
Mo-, and which reads thus: Monday
night, jackson Emerson entered the
Pilgrim Rest church, drew a revolver
and fired at his wife, Nina. The shot
entered her head and she fell over
dead. The congregation stampeded
The preacher jumped out of the Sec
ond story window. Emerson is in
Jail. There are strong threats Of
lynching. The parties are colored."
If this thing continues, it will soon be
