Boston, Mass, July 1.-THE aerial ex-
hibition commission has been organized in
this city, with G. N. Ransom, Of Modern
Light and Heat, treasurer, r. NJ. Bowlby
chairman, and Charles B. Bassford chair
man of the board of trustees. The object

constructed of entirely thin steel plates of
the strongest possible tensil strength, and
thoroughly braced ON the side by new
development in mechanics to resist
the stress of the pressure of the
atmosphere when a particle vacuum is
obtained. 1t is expected to lift 200 pas
sengers and fifty tons of mail, and also to
carry machinery and apparatus with cleo
trical power sufficient TO give speed to
the ship of at least seventy miles an hour.
DR.. DeBaussett has applied for permission.
to build the ship at the Charlestown navy
yard. The cost is expected to be S250,UOO.
Dr.. DeBaussett claims that his plans are
approved by The most eminent scientists
and engineering experts in this country.

A Michigan avenue car stopped at
Second street yesterday to permit a
young lady and gentleman to get on.
AS the former, who was young as well
as pretty, passed forward to accept a
seat offered her, she tripped over the
outstretched foot Of an individual who
was sitting at the rear Of the car.
In an instant she was almost at full
length in the bottom Of the car. Theexcla-

looks they directed at the extended STUN.

to sink through the seat. Quicker al
most than she went down, however, she

She was greatly embarrassed, and her
escort looked like thunder cloud and as

But he didn't. He contented himself

WARNER EXPECTS CROWD.

KANSAS CITY. No, July 17.-Major War
ner, commander-in-chief Of the Grand
Army of the Republic, and one of the
Sioux commission, returned to Kansas
City from the Dakota Sioux reservation
today. Regarding the national q. a. r.
encampment to be held at Milwaukee. he
said that he had encouraged and expects a
large attendance. The eastern railroads.
he said, had treated them better than the
western, many of them having voluntarily
offered the cent a mile rate.
The letter written bv Major Warner TO
A g. Weissert, president of the executive
committee in charge of the national en-
campment, which meets in Milwaukee
August 81, has already borne fruit. 4
letter received yesterday at Grand Army
headquarters from Mr.. Weisseert
states that be has been notified
by a number of eastern roads that
those who desire TO attend the Grand
Army encampment will be given cent
per mile rate or better and the Elkhart
line has decided to make the round trip
from indianapolis to Milwaukee, on the
occasion. &c, which is considerably less
than j cent a mile. lt is believed that
other roads will follow the example set by
the eastern roads and the Elkhart line,
and that the ! cent rate will become gen.
eral Notwithstanding the action Of the
Central Traffic association.

ILLINOIS MINERS, TROUBLES.

KANKAKEE, ILL.,, July 17.-The sheriff
of Kankakee county has placed deputies
at Clarke City and Tracy to protect the
Taylor Williams coal shafts from the
Italians who have threatened to burn
them and also to protect the miners who
desire to 60 to work on the terms offered.
The English and Irish miners wish to
work at the pay offered. which was s. per
day and in case they mined enough coal at
s. cents a ton to exceed this amount they
were to have the excess, but the Italians
will not agree to this and by threats pre-
vent other miners from working. A force
has been put to work clearing up the drift
in the Clarke City shaft. The shaft works
about 800 men and has been idle since May
l. Trouble is feared when the operators
decide to put the miners to work.

INDUSTRIOUS SECONDS.

Some Notable Reproductions OF Ideas In
INSTRUMENTATION memorable.
All great writers have initiated here
and there, but always consciously and
for their own amusement solely. Many
of these reproductions have been very
brilliant, but upon no one Of them has
the fame of an author ever rested. When
Coleridge wrote his remarkable para
phrase of the Bible, ''The Wapderings Of
CAIN" it was undoubtedly an event in
the literary world, and brought him
great praise; but if Coleridge had never
written "Cristabel," or "Tte Ancient
Mariner" or ''Kubla Khan" what niche
in hterature's temple would Coleridge
occupy today? Byron, in his Heaven
and Earth" wrote a description of tbs
flood which for dramatic power, vivid
portrayal and stupendous strength, far
exceeds the Bibles picture; but because
the flood had been the Bibles peculiar
property for hundreds Of years before
Byron was born, so it will continue to
hold its rights to the end of time.
To come down in the scale, ''St. Elmo"
and "Rutledge" owed their great vogue
to the popularity Of "Jane Eyre" and
the inspiration their authors drew from
that famous novel The duchess and
Helen Mathers pressed their lips to the
fever stricken mouth of Rhoda Brough-
ton and took the disease in a milder
form. Rita and Amelie Rives have
snatched the falling mantle of Ouida,
divided it in half and wound it so closely
about themselves that it has become an
extra cuticle and could only be removed
by surgical operation.
Great original genius is only recog-
nized and admitted after a desperate
fight, because there is no greater coward
,han the intellectual public. The well
furnished and critical brain has every
shelf of its cells fitted up with the lore
upon which centuries or generations of
public approval have set their seal. 1t
knows that to admire that choice library
is both safe and proper; it gives one dig
nifty and it gives one pleasure. Any.
thing, therefore, which is radically diff
ferent from the inhabitants of those
precious shelves must perforce be worth.
less.
People do not stop to compare or even
to remember the difference between the
succeeding hteratures Of past gener-
atoms. Think of the monotony of the
worlds letters if no original minds had
ever come to break loose from traditions,
inaugurate new schools and plant new
ideas! Suppose the glorious galaxy now
Illuminating our past had slccumbed to
the inevitable fire of public protestation,
what sort OF literature would we have
today? PROFESSIONALLY the literature of
one generation, even of one decade, is
the natural result of the literature i'm
mediately preceding it; evolution is in
exorable. But upon this force of heredity
operate the great and complex forces OF
the times, and the man who is thrust
head and shoulders above the mass. az
the target Of his generation and a
landmark for posterity, is he in whom
both forces have met and been ignited
by the divine spark that shot in his I'M
born brain, whence no man can tell

THE CLOSING OF AN IMPORTANT
OilTi ET

The blockade of port is not more in-
furious to its commerce than is even the
temporary obstruction of the bowels to the
health of the system. Constipation neces-
sarily arrests the secretion OF bile, impedes
and disorders digestion, and poisons the
circulation. The safest and most effective,
as it is also the most genial, laxative and
anti-bilious medicine in existence is Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. and it is more
than probable that its sovereign efficacy as
preventive and remedy for intermittent
and remittent fever is largely due to its
reformatory action upon the liver, an or
gan prejudically involved in all malarial
complaints. Persons with a tendency also
to rheumatic, neuralgia and kidney
treble cannot do better than to antagonize
it with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which invariably checks it at the outset.
The weak, moreover, are invested with
strength by this fine invigorant.
