SPEED or ENrREss TRAINS.


T.. FoxweIl and Fl. &. Farrer, of
London, Eng, have issued n work
on English aud foreign express
trains containing some very interest
ing statistics a. to speed. The sum-
mary indicates that the Great North
cru railway stands at the head In re-
speCt to speed having ninety-three
express trains averaging fOrty-three
and fnur-tlfths miles per hour in
Guiding stops and fOrty-seven miles
per hour excluding stops.
The authors figures for the United
States are not very complete though
interesting a. far as they go. From
them IL appears that the fastest run
ming II ON the Baltimore and Ohio
between baltimore aud Washington,
forty miles, at an average Of fifty
three and one-third miles per hour.
hut on n longer run between Jersey
City aud Trenton, fifly-hve and
thTee-fourths miles, the Pennsyl-
vAnia road averages lfty-three and
one-tenth miles per hOnr, and the
Philadelphia aud Reading on pOr-
ton of its New York run makes fifty
two and Iour-tenths miles. On the
entire run Of q fraction less that
ninety miles between Philadelphia
aud New York the Pensy lvania
route IL shown To average foriy-eight

Guiding aud forty-eight and ninety
six one hundredIhs excluding stops,
while the Bound Brook route aver
ages forty-seVen and nlne-tenths in
Guiding aud fOrty-nine and eight
tenIhs excluding stops. IL should
be borne In mind however, In max
ing comparisons that the trains on
American roads are very much |
heavier than those on British roads,
the passenger cars having much |
greater weight in proportion 10 pay |

From the Youths Companion.
In April, 1Tss. The frst ruler Of
this nation was inaugursted, On
that day history records thai
churches throughout the country
were opened for divine service and
Washington himself attended such
q service ~ q preliminary 70 taking
the oath Of once.
In the same year France also be-
came republic, in flames and blood.
After the mobiles and king had been
swept away the maddened populsee
cried out, "A 6as Le Dieu,
With God" Christianity Was for.
mslly renOuneed and q slle woman
was set up for public worship 40 the
Goddess Of Reason.
Each nation celebrates this year
the centenary Of the birth Of a great
constitutional movement. Here, as
100 years sgo, religious services have
been held In every city and village,
sects Of many differing names giving
thanks TO the same Heavenly
Father.
The population Of the country has
increased To over 100000 and
stretches from sea TO sea, o vast belt
Of fertile farms, Of happy homes,
thriving villages and SPLENDID cities
guarded only by an army Of 5000
men. Such q spectacle Of q prosper.
Gus partnership Of men Of all nations
the world has never yet looked upon.
No reasonable man can doubt that
this prosperity II largely due 10 the
freedom given to every citizen TO
serve God according TO Ills owl con
science, and to the recognition OF
him by the whole nation.
France celebrates her century by
o great exhibition. On July I4th
she observed the lO0th anniver-
sary Of the destruction OF the bastile I;
but In her cOmmem grafton no place
10 found for any religious cerpmo-
ny. She recognizes no God as her
ruler.
France has the largest national
debt In the world. During the Gen.
fury she has changed her govern
ment again aud again. Her cities
are heavily garrisoned and hel peo-
pie are burdened by the expense of
q peace" army Of more than JOO,ODO
soldiers.
These surely are significant facts.
In the light OF them let Americans
rejoice In their heritage and he jeal-
Gus OF everything which looks to-
ward practical surrender OF their
faith In the God Of nations, without
whose favor neither numbers nor
wealth, nor even q general diffusion
OF intelligence can secure the per-
maneEt welfare OF any people.

According to q publication Of the
statistical bareau at Berlin, four
fifths Of the steam machinery In the
world has been constructed within
the last twenty-five years. France
~. 500 boilers, 1000 locomotives aud
LOO ship boilers, Austro- Hungary,
1900 boilers and ., 400 locomotives.
In the United States the stesIn ma
chinery, exclusive Of locomotives,
has, 100000 horse power; In
England, 100000; In Germany,
10000 in France, 5000, 600; In
AustrO- Hungary, 10000. There
are some los, 600 locomotives, with
5000, 600 horse power, In the world.
All the steam machinery In the
world possesses 48,OOO,OU0 horse
power. The one horse power Of q
machine operated by steam Is equiv
alent TO the strength Of three ordi-
nary forses, and the strength Of q
horse IL equivalent to the combined
strength OF seven men. From all
this the statistical bureau ut Berlin
draws the conclusion that the steam
OF the world does the
work Of l,OOO, 100000 men, or twice
the working population Of the globe

with him. ] generally give him n
military salute, which he always
promptly recognizes. Why do you
ask ?"
81 saw you salute him, but Il was
the first time I ever saw you do 1t,
aud IL was q piece OF curiosity on my
part to know II you were acquainted
with him. have not seen the
General for some time. DO you
know that I once spanked him?"
Are you giving me marine
yarn?"
mo; Il Is the truth. Some years
ago / worked I'm the WateIville
Arsenal, over which General
Schofield had command. He was
then hard at work getting q pistol
of his own invention made. He
frequently came into the shop
where I was and Mingled among US,
and often he came In dressed In q
workAIan's garb and worked at the
lathe. One day, however, ! missed
him from his accustomed lathe, and
in looking around ! saw q mau
bending over in search OF something
that I thought he had dropped.
Mischief prompted me at that
moment TO seize hold OF n large
fiour-barrel stave. In the twink
ling OF an eye that staye hit some
thing, and there Was q sound of q
mans head humping on the floor.
I expected when the man got up TO
see the face OF au angry man, aud
for him to show fight. Great Scott!
when he did yet up, aud that
leisurely. I saw that he was General
Schofield. My face showed q very
marked degree Of surprise, and the
General relieved me by bursting out
with laughter, In which he was
Joined by q hundred workmen. For
q second or more thought that my
name was Dennis but when lac
took it so goOd-naturedly II vas q
big relief TO me. | always noticed
afterward that before he made an
effort to bend he would first turn
around sideways, and I understand
that Is his habit now"
