To Complete the Panama Canal.

A rumor is aioat that the Tehuan-
tepec Ship Railway Company is con-
sidering proposal to build a ship
railway in place of the unfinished part
OF the Panama canal The scheme is
for the Ship Railway Company to build
a ship railway over the forty-two
miles of the uucompleted canal route.
The estimated cost OF building the ca
nal for this distance is $3.50, 600. 900;
but it is said that the ship railway can
be built for $40, 600. 900. If the French
Government would give its guarantee
the possibility OF the stockholders get
ting some OF their money back would
give popularity to this new enterprise.
At present the condition OF canal mat
tiers at Panama is wholly unsatisfac-
tory; the stoppage of work, and con-
sequent loss of employment have led
to good deal of trouble with the la
borers. although vigorous efforts have
been made to assist those out of en-
ployment. and send them south or
TO nearby coast ports -Demorest' 3

OF GENERAL INTEREST.

The number OF inhabitants to each
mile of railroad in this country in 1880
was 2,571; in 1887 the number was
only 4l2.
"A shoe dealer at Durham. n. C..
has his store built on wheels. He goes
from one town to the other. and when
he finds trade dull he bitches on a
team and pulls to the next town.
In some sections of the country
where fruit generally succeeds. the
devotion of entire farms to the grow

says the Germantown Telegraph.
Doubtless there are more legends
and traditions connected with Easter
than with any other festival. most of
which are founded on some beautiful
fancy. One sweet legend is that
Easter flowers are Christ's smiles. and
that every bud and blossom has its
angel TO minister to longing human
hearts.
"A New York daily paper appeared
on st. Patrick's day printed in green,
and its editor sought to excuse his
toadyism by saying that his paper
''revolves for all" At once a gentle
man offered to bet the truculent editor
that his paper was not so much OF a
revolver as to appear in yellow on the
day celebrated by the Crangemen.

Recent Investigations and expert
ment seem to indicate that in all the
great modern European fleets, OF
which we have heard so much, there
is not one really effective line-of-battie
ship. 1t is also BEGINNING to be dis
covered that the big guns with which
those fleets are armed are constructed
on a wrong principle, and VIII not
stand the stress of battle. If these
fears are well founded, the nations OF
Europe have wasted many hundred OF
millions of dollars within the last
twenty years.
Dry. loose sand, wherever it
occurs. is constantly being shifted by
the wind, and often buries cultivated
lands, buildings and forests. On the
shores of Lake Michigan are drifts loO
feet deep, and those of Cornwall reach
500 feet in depth, while the drifts of
the Cobb desert are forty miles long
and 900 feet high in places. On the
shores of the Bay of Biscay the drift
ing sand travels inland 16 feet year,
in parts of Denmark "a feet. and in
Southern India II yards. In some
places walls and barriers of vegetation
have been created to stop the Destroy
ing drifts. Fine sand is taken up to a
great height in the air, and deposited
many miles away.
"A Lewiston, Me-, police officer in
passing dark alleyway recently.
heard a strange noise. 1t was of a
voice in the tones of supplication. The
words were undistinguishable. 1t was
about two o'clock in the morning, and
the officer drew his shooting iron and
his club and fastened to the spot. AS
he neared it the tones grew louder.
Some one was shouting in a loud voice
from the back end of horse shed.
The officer was not little surprised
to find the object of his search in the
person OF devout soldier of the SAL
walton Army, who was out in the cold
and the darkness of the darkest hour
making his petitions. The officer
passed a good morning, and asked the
soldier to lower his voice a few octaves.
The soldier complied and the officer
| departed.
What constitutes an unsound
horse, or other animal? Perhaps the
best definition is that given by an En-
glish judge, a good many years ago,
and which has been often quoted in
the courts since: ''If at the time OF
the sale the horse has any disease
which either does diminish the natural
usefulness of the animal SO as to make
him less capable of work of any de-
scription, or which in its ordinary
progress will diminish the natural use
/ fulness of the animal, or if the horse
/ has either from disease or accident I'm.
dergone any alteration of structure
that either actually does at the time,
/ or in its ordinary effects will, diminish
! the natural usefulness of the horse,
such horse is unsound."

THE CANALS OF MARS.
A Popular Hypothesis Refuted by a Ma

A Popular Hypothesis Refuted by a Mat
ter-of-Fact Scientist.
As to the nature of the canals, it is
still more difficult to suggest any sat-
isfactory explanation. Several n.y.
potheses have been presented, none of
which appears entirely to meet the
case. / have already remarked that
there has not been lacking the sug-
gestlon that these curious streaks rep
resent the lines of actual artificial
water-courses on Mars. The straight
and undertaking course which they pur-
sue might be regarded as lending some
degree of probability to such view.
but the enormous scale on which they
exist seems to compel the rejection of
the hypothesis. 1t is true that, if We
consider only the influence of the force
of gravity on Mars, giants could dwell
upon that planet whose mechanical
achievements might vastly surpass
the greatest performa noes of our en-
gineers; for body weighing ton on
earth would weigh only seven hun

sessing relatively the same activity as
one of US might be fifteen feet tall and
strong in proportion. But, even grant
ing the existence of such race of Go
liaths on our neighbor world, it is not
conceivable that they could have con-
structed asystem of tremendous canals
over half the surface of their planet,
or that they would have done it if they
could. The canals of Mars are enor-
mously disproportioned in magnitude
to the most gigantic inhabitants that
a due regard for the law of gravita-
ton would suffer US to imagine there.

he wanted in cash.

RESISTING EVICT0RS.
A Desperate Struggle Between Tenants
and BaiIirs in Falcough, County Dom
egaI-PrIests Were Peace Makers.

DUBLIN, Jan. 5-The work Of evicting
tenants has been resumed today at Faca-
nagh, County Donegal
The evictors found the house OF a man
named Doogan barricaded and defended by
a score of men armed with rifles and in
trenched behind the walls OF the house.
Loopholes had been made in the walls from
which the besieged could fire upon the sol
diers
The men inside the house refused to sur
render even when the priests added their en-
treaties to the commands of the magistrate.
Accordingly the riot act was read and the
soldiers made ready to fire upon the house,
when tho magistrate stopped them and
granted the defenders of the place an hour
for reflection
Finally Doogan agreed to abandon the use
of rifles if the soldiers would not shoot, but
would not surrender.
Then the bailiffs and police made an attack
upon the house and desperate struggle en-
sued.
After the attacking party had been re-
pulsed several times, the priests persuaded
Doagan to surrender, and he and his men
We're taken into custody.
During the fight an Inspector was badly
wounded
