It can not truthfully be denied that the
burlington Route, C.. h. q y. X. r, is do
ing an extensive business, both passenger
and freight. OF the first named branch of
its service the Chicago Herald recently said,
in speaking Of the occasion of the National
Republican Convention 1.-The Burlington
Road probably brought in more people than
any other. Altogether il is estimated that
from June IL TO 10, the period of the excur-
sion rates, over l2.O00 strangers came TO
Chicago over the Burlington This was
exclusive OF suburban passengers and
mostly in addition to its heavy regular pass
enger traffic. In receipts of live stock, the
Union Stock Yards Reports show the Bur
lington to be far in the lead. The average
number Of cars brought in by il during the
first six months Of the years 1856, 1887 and
lssS ~ 26,1iO; and the number for the first
half OF the year lsSS, Notwithstanding the
temporary depression caused by the recent
great strike on its lines, was 24.425. or but
little below the average. The latter figure
also represents about "a per cent. Of the
total number of cars, l02,4i3, brought to the
Yards for the last half year, being more
than six per cent. in excess Of the receipts
by any other road.

No More rcacos& Feathers,

Until within a few years only q small
number OF even the wealthiest persons,
especially in America, felt that they could
afford to include peacocks among their
pets. Tn feathers were costly, and every
woman prided herself upon the possession
OF a few in her bonnet. If she were for
tunate enough to hav n fan made of these
feathers she felt proud indeed. Gradu-
ally, as the hunters secured larger quar-
titles, wealthy people began TO use them
FOR decorative purposes. Elegant screens,
some with the feathers spread thinly on q
cloth surface, and others, which were
more costly, with the feathers closely
sewed together; fans with silver handles,
sofa cushions and chair seats were made
OF the brilliant plumage. The feathers
were even used in the decoration of walls,
and for friezes and dadOes.
But suddenly, and apparently without
cause, the demand ceased. The feathers
that had previously been the JOY OF the
owner, were looked Upon with distaste
and pronounced out Of fashion. They
were ruthlessly torn from the hats they
had adorned, from walls and screens, and
thrown into the rubbish heaps.
Whence came this sudden and unex-
plained dislike? The reporter was told
that an ancient superstition to the effect
that peacocks and peacocks' feathers were
sure 10 bring bed luck to their owner had
been revived and had brought about the
downfall Of the fashion. lie made in
quiries at the stores where peacock feath.
ers were formerly supplied, and found
that the demand for them had ceased en-
tirely. AT Tiffany's it was said that they
had not sold a fan or screen of peacock
feathers for several years. Customers
never ask for them. The reporter was in
formed at other houses that feathers that
formerly sold Mt high prices can now be
obtained for twenty-five, fifty and seventy
five cents a bunch. A number Of impor-
ters said that they were used very little

: While, TO make q great captain, all the
mental and physical qualities must exist
In the greatest possible strength, varieties
OF these in combination, to q greater or
less degree, have been possessed by gen.
erals OF less or greater repute in the
worlds history, ard the number and in
tensity OF these qualifications In the com
blnation give the general his relative
place in the list of great soldiers. Some
generals are only brilliant upon the battle
Held, and some even only in particular
phases of Il battle, though they may pos
sess certain qualities of a great leader to
an extent which amounts, IN its way, to
an exhibition OF genius as great as any
great captain has ever shown.
The particular quality which made Ma
poleon seize the colors and incite his troops
to follow him ut the bridge of Arcola IS
well worthy OF attention as being, at
times, u most important factor In a battle.
Alexander and Henry Of Navarro, were
leaders whose personal power on the
battle field may be said to have directly
influenced many Of their victories. Many
If NapOleon's lieutenants had this instinct
0f leadership; I.annes and Massena to an
eminent degree. Washington showed IL
in the power OF his personal presence to
change a retreat into an attack, and Scott
made q brilliant display Of it at the battle
Of Lundy's Lane. The civil war shows
but little of this divine gift. Gen. c. F.
Smith may be said to have had the genius
II battle highly developed in him. as was
c~onspicuously shown at the battle of Fort
Doneison. 1t is not always given to
genius TO succeed in these efforts. Ma
poieon failed at the battle Of Arcola,
though II is possible that the desperate
fighting around his person on the cause
way kept the enemy closely employed
until another force had taken the town in
rear, and that, therefore, his act secured
his great rictory.-Gen. "Baldy' Smith

Calls for Domestic Animals.

In controlling the movements OF do
nestle animals by the voice, besides words
Of ordinary import, man uses q variety of
peculiar terms, calls and inarticulate
sounds-not 10 include whistling-which
vary in different localities. In driving
yoked cattle and harnessed horses, team
sters cry get up" ''click, click" tongue
against teeth, gee" ''haw," whoa"
''whoosh," back" etc, in English
speaking countries; "arre," "arri,"
''juh," ''gio," etc, in European coun-
tries. In the United States ''gee''
directs the animals away from the driver,
hence TO the right; bu: In England
the same term has the opposite effect, be-
cause the driver walks on the right hand
side of his team. In Virginia, mule driv-
ers gee the animals with the cry 'hey-
yee-ee-a." In Norfolk, England, 'whoosh-
wo;" in France, "hue" and '~'huhaut;''
in Germany, ''hott" and "hotte;" in some
parts Of Russia 'haita''-serve the same
purpose. To direct animals to the left,
another series of terms is used. In call
ing cattle in the field, the following cries
are used in the localities given: ''boss,
boss, " sake, sake" (ConnecticutD; 5000,
COO virginia.: "sook, sook," also
''sookey' Maryland); ''sookow" ALA
bama); ''tlon, tlon' Russia); and for
calling horses, "kope, kope" (Maryland
and Alabama); for calling sheep, "ko-
nanny" Maryland); for calling hogs,

A book might be written upon the
palpable frauds and tricks, Of which the
Chinese trader is guilty. With a goose
quill he blows up his mutton so that the
veriest old scrag OF a carcass looks fat
and tempting. He tucks cobble stones
into his heads of cabbage, which he sells
by the pound. He sells dwarf orange
trees loaded down with fruit, nine-tenths
of which is cleverly wired o. to branches
which never fed and developed it. Or, il

reproduces in every detail and shade OF

the fraud be detected. The smallners OF

Cliff Dwellings Of Morocco.

It was not until last year that the
Moors would permit any examination Of
the cliff dwellings which have long been
known to exist some days journey south
west Of the city Of Morocco. This strange
city of the cave jewellers is almost exactly
like some Of those In New Mexico and
other territories which psychologists have
explored. The dwellings were dug out of
the solid rock and many of them are over
200 feet above the bottom Of the valley.
The face Of the cliff Is In places perpen-
dicular, and ii is believed that the troglo-
dytes could have reached their dwellings
only with the aid of rope ladders. Some
Of the dwellings contain three rooms, the
largest of which is about Tiki feet, and
the walls OF the larger rooms are generally
pierced by windows. Nothing is known
rs to who these cave dwellers were.-New

Electric Signals for Army Scouta.

Briefly, the scheme is this. The scouts
or signal officers carry in their knapsacks
six small iucandescent lights Of the diff
ferent primary colors. These are con-
nected by a very fine wire with a small
battery in the knapsack. Attached to the
small globes that inclose the lights is a
very small oval electric motor, operated
by az independent battery. When one
scout wishes TO communicate with an
other he sends n globe high into the air
and then turns on the electric fluid that
Eliminates it. BY the use Of the differ
eut colored globes and by combinations a
conversation of any length can be carried
on at night at long distances. The inven-
ton will be patented in Europe, and an
effort will be made to introduce it into
the difference European armies, as well as
Eto this country. Press.
