An Indianian's Invention.


ANDERSON, Ind, July 27.-Mr. Adrian
Hit, lately of Jersey City, proprietor of
the North Anderson sash and dOor-works,
has the drawings and model of an electrical
elevated railroad, which, he says, will
eclipse anything in the way of rapid
transit heretofore discovered or invented.
Mr.. Hit is now engaged in organizing a
stock company, and is trying to raise g, 600
to build two miles and start the road from
here to Indianapolis
He claims that these two miles will show
the practical workings of the system. Mr..
Hit claims that with his new motor and
system he will start a person from Ander-
son, and in fifteen minutes land him in In
dianapolis, instead of an hour and half as
at present. In the short space of four hours
he will cover the distance between here
and New York instead of twenty-four
hours as at present.
Mr.. Hits system is so arranged that this
can be done in perfect safety, and owing to
the automatic manner in which it is ar
ranged accidents are impossible. A car
riage can be run from Anderson to Indian
apOlis for the cost of an arc light for the
same space of time, and the transmission
of mails can be greatly expedited. Mr..
Hit is a gentleman of intelligence, a good
business man, and claims to have solved
the problem of rapid transit.

innocent" As he finished he raised
his hand. and with a small
pocket-knife. stabbed himself in the left
breast. He fell backwards on the floor,
while his wife. who had been sitting
beside him. screamed wildly: "Oh, Jim,
why did you do that" Doctors were hast
lily summoned, and found the wound an inch
and a.half deep. about three inches above
the nipple They do not think the would-be
suicide will die. In his pockets were found

The American Idea .

Speaking of the influx of foreign
ers the s. F. Chronicle says:
"What is to be done to check
this flood which is continually
pouring in upon US? We can with
all propriety, shut out paupers and
criminals and all who are intrinsic
ally undesirable, but what can we
do 10 keep on. the men and women
who might be desirable if we need
ed 10 increase our population by
immigration? Every one who
comes here must make the struggle
for existance so much the keener
for our own people, and it is time
to consider whether, in justice to
our native-born population, we
should net restrict the immigration
of aliens simply because they are
aliens and because we do not want
them. How this can be done is a
matter of study. The first thing
to do is to determine that we want
it DONE"
To which the Enterprise makes
the following suggestions:
The remedy is very simple. 1t
is only necessary that our politicians
recover from the fear Of offending
the foreign vote, repeal the natural
ization and land laws by which
strangers can come and rule US and
take our property, and place poll
tax on immigrats.

A FEARLESS JOURNALIST

1t is definitely settled that Arthur
McEwen will leave the Examiner
and take up ais residence in New
York. McEwen has always ranked
not only as a brilliant journalist,
but perfectly honest and fearless
one, and his lance was always set
for the shams and humbugs that in
fest the path OF every paper wher-
ever it is published. He dispised
the 2ompus strut of incompetents
in place, and was mighty quick in
guaging the full measure of the
fraud he purctured. He was a
well hated man, but the hatred
came from q class of people whose
hatred one might well be proud of.
He tirst made his mark in Nevada.
and will make his mark anywhere
he goes as an incisive journalistic
writer, who has the courage to write
what he thinks.

THE CENTENNIAL BANQUET.

The centennial anniversary of the
Inauguration OF Washington prom
Uses to be run by set in New York
known generally as s'the four hun
dred."
Exactly what the status of the
crowd is, no one knows, except that
they have formed a set, and look
down toploftily on those under
meath who do not happen to belong
to the circle.
Very few of "the 400" have ever
distinguished themselves in any
thing except by lnheriting large
fortunes from their Dutch ancestors
who traded tobacco and peddled
vegetables on Manhattan leland
over century ago.
Some of the ancestors of this
precious crowd were lodging the
clutches of the law most of their
lives, and a good many came from
that sturdy, adventurous stock of
pirates who swarmed over the ocean
in the good old days when the
scuttling of merchantmen and the
cutting OF threats was the regular
thing
None of the wines to be swigsed
at this banquet are the product of
the American grape, and in this
age of home protection and honest
American manhood, the whole af-
fair, as far as New York is con-
cerned, is something which 1t would
be disgrace COR any sell-respecting
American to attend.

What would I do If were a women?
Wouldn't try to be man. Cut that
out and paste 1t on your looking glass,
daughter, and it will be an orn ameLt of
grace unto thy head and chains about thy
neck many times day.
I wouldn't shudder and groan every
time the name of the Monster was men,
toned, bnt I would studiously avoid ac-
qulring the lightest of his many accom-
plishments and the best of his manifold
ways.
I woul1 never learn to lay fire, in
range or fireplace. Every time I touched
fire, summer or winter, would put it
dead out. Then I'd never be expected to
make one.
The first loaf of bread taked I would
let drop on the dog and kill him. Then
I'd never be asked to bake bread again,
and I'd geta new dog.
When I descended into the laundry,
would manage to bring cut all the fancy
fannels white as ghosts, and all the white
skirts as blue as the skies of June. Then
Ia never he asked to assist ut the wash
tub again.
I would pinch every baby that was
given me to hold, black and blue in half
dozen places before it could catch its
breath enough to shrek, and I would
frtghten the life or tease the temper out
of anybody's children whom 1 was asked
to amuse. Then I'd never be troubled
with other peoples young ones, and no
body would ever ask ME to teach the in
FAINT class while the tired teacher took
vacation.
If l had to sit on the front seat " hen
asked to drive, would carry large sun
umbrella and gouge the drivers eyes out
and run the team into fence corner the
first mile out. Then I'd get the back
seat on the shady side every time after
ward.
l would always sit sideways in street
car. Then would have plenty OF room
/ would wear carriage dress in the
street car if had NO other place to show
it off
would smash something choice and
expensive every time I swept room or
busted parlor. Then I'd never be asked
to do such work.
In church I would never rise during
the singing and never kneel during the
prayers. Then people would notice me
and say, "Who is that pretty girl with
such lovely eyes?"
At the theater I would wear the big
gest hat obtainable.
At cricket and lawn tennis matches l
would sit in the front row and raise my
parasol.
would cultivate such charming help.
lessness, such hopeless innocence, such
pretty childish Ignorance, such fascina
ting dependence, such dainty baby ways
that people would say, "Oh, we must take
care of her she dosn't understand these
things" Then all my life long I would
be peited and coddled and fonded and
cared for in thousand ways, where
more independent women have to ''hus-
tle'' for themelves.
That is, drughter, if other women
would care for such sweet little bit OF
helplessness. Maybe they would. You
know better than do how women re-
gard that sort of women.
But, you can gamble your piece OF
mind, your love OF ease and all your en-
joyueLts or life that the Monster Man
wouldn't torment the solitude of such ii
women with his presence longer than
day or two, and she would thus be spared
one of the greatest annoyances to which
mankind is subjected.
