From New York to London by Rail.

From the Portland oregonian.
People will, instead of risking the
dangers of an Atlantic trip and the
horrors OF NAL de mer, as we'll as for the
purpose of saving time, leave New
York for London, via Portland and
st. Petersburg, and thus will be exem-
plified more fully the great speech of
Senator Benton, when, in pointing
from Washington toward the Pacific,
he exclaimed "There lies the East;
there lies India"
There are now two lines of railway
running eastward from St. Petersburg
toward the Ural mountains to the Pa
cific ocean, distance of about 1000
miles, including the l 800 miles already
constructed from st. Petersburg to the
Ural. This road will have It's eastern
terminus at Vladivostock, which is sit
uated at the furthest southern extrem-
lty OF RUSSIAN territory lying on the
Pacific coast, on that side. This, OF
itself, will much shorten the trip from
st. Petersburg to American Pacific
coast ports, superinducing, as it will, a
line of steamers from Vladivostock to
American ports, across a much mar
rover portion of the Pacific ocean than
that of the course OF the steamers now
plying between Vancouver and Yoko-
hama.
But in little time, comparatively,
the route will be all rail from St. Pc
tersburg to New York. The genera
ton now growing up will make the
trip.

Hints AhOnt Horses.

1t costs more to keep a poor horse
than it does to keep good one.
Change the feed for your horses
often enough to make them relish it.
Improper feeding is the cause OF
nine out OF ten cases OF sickness among
horses.
Every time you worry your horses
you shorten their lives and days OF
usefulness.
Sweat and dust cause the horses
shoulders to gall. So do poor, ill-ftting
collars
The temperature of water for horses
is not SO much OF an object as the
purity OF it. While it is best to have
the water cool, it is more important to
have it free from all impurities.
Mares in foal should have exercise
and moderate work, and under no cir
cumstances should they be subjected
to harsh treatment, nor should they
ever be allowed to go where they
would be in danger Of being frighten.
ed
The horse which can plough an acre
while another horse is ploughing half
an acre, or that which can carry load
of passengers ten miles while another
is going five, Independent Of all con-
siderations of amusement, taste, or
what is called fancy, is absolutely
worth twice as much to the owner rs
the other.
Affection cannot be pounded in.
Kind treatment insures the affection
OF an animal, while rough treatment
is sure to cause its hatred
1t is alike dangerous to other
horses and men to spare the life of a
glandered horse. Chambers is a highly
contagious, incurable disease, and as a
rule fatal in the human subject.
When horses are suffering from the
bites OF flies or stings Of other insects,
sponge the parts that cannot be pro-
teeted by nets with water in which in
sect powder has been mixed--a table,
spoonful to two gallons of water.
OF two eelts similar in disposition
and sense, one may develop into a
steady and valuable family horse,
while the other may be vicious, treach-
erous and unsafe--all because of the
difference in the men handling them.

SEEKING TO CONTROL 1000 MILES OF
ROAD.
By the consummation of this inn
pending deal one vast monopoly will
control about 1000 miles of tracks,
extending through at least seven
Southern States. One main line sweeps
from Alexandria, Va, through Dan
vile, Wa, Charlotte, N. c., and Atlanta,
Ga, to the Mississippi river at Green
vile, Miss. From West Point to Dan
vile, Va, runs an important stem.
From Bristol, Tenn, another main
line is carried south to Mobile, Ala,
and west from Cleveland, Tenn, to
Memphis, and southeast from Cleve-
land through Atlanta to Brunswick,
on the Atlantic coast. By the recently
acquired control of the Georgia COM
pany the Terminal secures other i'm
portant lines from Birmingham and
Montgomery, Ala; Atlanta, Ga.
Greenville and Spartanburg, S. c., to
Port Royal and Savannah.
There are also negotiations under
way for the purchase of several smaller
roads that have their termini at i'm.
portant points in the South, and which
will be essential to the completion Of
the contemplated monopoly.

 At late hour at night one thousand determined men surrounded lhe jail but the authorities refused u give up the prisoner. Barricades were then broken down and the officers were over- powered. An hour was spent m break ing down the steel cage. and then the prisoner fought with desperate fury against the mob that sought to enter. The struggle did not last long, as he was taken out, bound hand and foot, led to the porch below, and there prep arations were made to hang him. A rope was placed around his neck, and the prisoner was asked what he had to say. He protested his innocence, but being known that he had made a full confession in the afternoon he was not believed.
 The prisoner was covered with blood, having been terrible mangled while the cage was being battered down. At 12:45 a. m. the mob hanged the prisoner to a tree in front of the court house.

While the loss by last nights fire IS to be regretted. it was fortunate circum- stance for the community, that the sam
 bling works themselves were not de stoyed. The loss in such an event
 would be beyond computation to this section. Had there been the least
 breath of a breeze blowing from the south
 it would have been beyond the power of human to have saved it, as it is situated only about fifty feet north of the build. ing destroyed. The loss of these works would not only be loss to the commu- nity at large, but would prove a great loss to the city, and it suggests the impor' tance of some arrangements being made to connect the sampling works, and depot as well, with the water works system. It is not long, since the timely discOveryof a small blaze at the depot saved that build. ing from destruction. The loss of the sampling works would not be felt more by their owner than they would be by this community, and it is hoped that connec- tions can be made so as to avert danger ID the future of a confagrration there.

Justice Wallace, of the United States circuit court, sitting in New York, has decided that the church of the Holy Trinity, of that city, must pay fine of $I,ooo for having violated an act of congress prohibiting the importation of contract labor It will be remembered that the vestry of the church contracted with the Rev. MT. Warren, an English clergyman, to come over and fill their pulpit. Judge Wallace, in his decision, says that he does not think that con- gress intended the law to apply such cases as the one al bar, bu: the terms of the statute are plain, unambiguous and explicit, and the courts are not al- lowed to go outside of the language to search for meaning which 1t does not reasonably bear in the effort to ascertain and give effect to what may be imagined to have been or rot to have been the in- teEtion of congress.
