For the accommodation of all who de-
sire to witness the inaguration of
President-elect Harrison, the B. & o.
r. R. Co., will sell excursion tickets
to Washington from all points on its
lines at one fare for the round trip.
Tickets will be sold March 1st to 4th,
inclusive, until March 7th, inclusive.
The B. & o. is the shortest and most
direct route to Washington from all
points touched by its lines. It has
more track and yard room at Washing
ton than any other road and conse-
quently more facilities for the prompt
movement Of trains and the expedi-
tions handling of a larger passenger
business than any other line.
The B. & o. handled an immense
passenger traffic at the inaguration of
President Cleveland, without delay
and without injury to a single passen-
ger.
Its facilities have been greatly aug
mented since that time and it is in
position to give more satisfactory SER
vice than any other line touching
Washington.

She spoke to him one evening after he

she broke him by asking him if he was

poorly situated for marriage just then !;
he hadn't much money and had to sup

The Lesson or Famous Pugilist,s
Downfall ses

The Lesson OF o Famous Pueflisf,s
Downfall.
There is moral to the brief story
that is given in the short paragraphs
below-a moral that every young man
will do well to ponder:
John L. Sullivan, the gigantic prize
fighter. the iron-ribbed athlete who
only few months ago strobe like
q Colossus among his fellow men, lis a
wreck. His tremulous thews and
sinews are still there, but they are
weak and tremulous. His huge buik,
once the terror Of. the pigmies Mllo
looked at himiin admiring wo1def, il
nothing but a fiabby mass, "a dead
weight. 'if5et
The shattered giant frankly tells the
story of his downfall. It was drink
that did 1t. Drink robbed him Of his
strength and made him at the age Of
thirty as helpless as child. It is true
that he does not use the word drink;
ne calls it fun," but drink is what
he means. 9. I have made up my
mind" he says, g that I have had
about fun enough. y
There are a vast number Of young
who, like Sullivan, call drinking
4
sfrn." But they forgot that they who
dance must pay the piper. That which
is fun to-day will in a few brief years
cause the wreck Of the physical sys-
tenn. Sullivan has had "fun,', but
he finds himself, at the age of 80.
without any vital energy, with a
diseased stomach and vital organs, and
without money. He has destroyed his
constitution, and must be content to
drag out whatever span of life may
yet be allotted him in state of chronic
inyalidism, "a Samson shorn of his locks.
an athlete without the strength which
was once his glory.
The brief story Of the downfall of
Sullivan is one that touches the lives
OF tens Of thousands of young men in
tht United States. The world is full Of
men who, like him have had "fun"
fun as the broken-down
pugilist refers to. Some of them have
already found it out, and it is time that
all of them had done SO. Will they listen
to the warning now, or wait till the
attack Of disease makes them listen
whether they will or no P-Easton

One million Dollar Telescope.

The chances are that the moon will
be as well known to the inhabitants of
the civilized world as the interior OF
Africa is at the present time. The
telescope manufactured by order Of the
late millionaire Lick for the university
known by his name in California has
enjoyed the distinction of being the
largest and strongest in the world, but
is likely to undergo comparative &C.
lipse. Mr.. Abram Clark who made it,
has undertaken the task of making one
yet larger and more powerful. Should
he succeed, as he is perfectly confident
that he will, valuable additions may
be expected to be made to our knoWl-
edge of the worlds by which we are
surrounded. In recent talk on the
subject Mr.. Clark disclosed some facts
quite contrary to general belief in re-
gard to astronomy. It has been pop
ularly supposed that we had reached
the maxium of effective telescopes
The big ones, the leading astrono-
mers told us, discloses little of the
heavens wonders. And they pointed
out the most important discoveries of
the present century had been made by
telescopes of medium size. Hence
the deduction that it was useless to
bother with larger lenses. Such a
theory, of course, gave US little of
practical value to hope for from astro.
nomy. With the telescopes now in use
we could expect to determine more ac-I
curately the distance from the earth to
the sun. or lay bare more stars. But
In discoveries of this kind the great
mass Of humanity could scarcely be ex-
pected to take any very great interest.
It was the verdict of most of the pro-
fessionals that the Lick telescope
would be failure, so far as adding
to practical knowledge of the
heavenly spheres was concerned, but in
this, as in many other instances, they
were mistaken. 1t has already been
demonstrated that, properly construct
ed located, a big telescope is more eff
fective than one of smaller size. 1t has |
been shown, in fact, that there is prac-
tically no limit to the power of a teies- |
cope, and that if a sufficiently power
full one can be made, we can bring |
most of the planets near enough to ex-
anime their every nook and corner.
The lens Of the new instrument for |
;he university at Los Angeles is to be |
40 inches diameter, and Mr.. Clark |
claims that he is able to make one five \
feet in diameter-one which will bring |
The moon within few thousand feet |
If the earth. 1t is simply question
If time and money-mainly money, as
! telescope with five foot lens, pro-
,erly mounted, would cost a million
lollars. If Mr.. Clark's position is true, /
Ind there is every reason to believe |
hat it is, astronomy, science which
las been practically at stand for /
7ears, will take giant strides. There /
will be practically no limit to the dis
,overies it can make, and there should |
'ome from it some practical benefits.
Each year we will know more of the
and of all sciences astronomy
will be changed from the slowest to the
most prog ressive.-Mail and Express.
