The latest estimate of the railroad mile
age of the world is given in a German peri
odical. The conclusion is that there are
324, 400 miles of railroad in existence, in
which s26, 500, OOO,O0Ois invested. The cap
ital in Europe is $4,000 per mile, and in
other countries $4,000 Nearly one-fourth
of the mileage of theroads of the world has
been constructed during the last four years.
This country leads all others in the amount
of mileage, which is placed at $50, 700, low
estimate. Of the European countries
Germany leads with $4,000 miles, and
France, England, Austria and Russia come
next in order named, the latter reporting
1900 miles. In British India there are
1920 miles of road; in Cape Colony, LOO
miles; in Brazil, 5000; in the Argentine
Reptile, 1900, and in all the Australian
provinces, $500 miles. Railroad building
is going on very fast in South and Central
America, Australia, Japan, and in Natal
and Mauritius, in Africa.

Mother Eve.

According to Milton, the first thing Eve
did after leaving Adams side, was to sur
vey her charms in silvery pool. No
doubt she was splendid creature, but
beauty is not the heritage of all her daugh
tiers, and many of them resort to "Glenn's
Sulphur Soap to obtain the dazzling com
plexion which Eve received from nature.
The great merit of this uneXcelled cosmetic
is that it leaves no traces of artifciality.
Beware of counterfeits. Sold by druggists.
But the most brilliant complexion with gray
hair would be an anomaly, and therefore
this blemish should be removed by the use
of 'Hilrs Instantaneous Hair Dye which
is unsurpassed alike in cheapness ard the
perfection of color it bestows.

PROVO POINTS.

Bishop Booth has been promoted to pre-
side over the Northwestern states mission.
The Utah Central railroad will donate
the net gain of excursions from this county
to Garfield for the benefit of our stake or
gan fund. The first excursion is an
nounced for Wednesday.
There was social gathering in the
Fourth Ward meeting house on Saturday
night in honor of Bishop Booth, who ex-
poets to depart on his mission this week.
An error occurred in our report of the
convention last Saturday which it is use
less to attempt to- excuse on account of
great EXCITEMENT or to charge to
the printers, who already have
enough to answer for. After the
regular roll call, there were five proxy
delegates admitted, which made the num-
Der twenty-nine instead of "a. When the
vote was taken there were twenty for
Thurman and seven for Booth. One of
the seven then moved to make the vote
unanimous for Thurman, which resulted in
twenty-fiv for and three against the mo-
ton. One of the three then stated that he
voted for Booth. l have since learned that
Bishop Booth had nothing to do in connec-
ton with his name being presented as
candidate, and he feels more pleased than
otherwise with the result. He don't want
any one to bolt the regular ticket on his
account

At Lake Park.

There was fair attendance at Lake
Park, and these were considerably disap-
pointed over the non-appearance of the
bicyclists, who had been advertised to APP
pear at 4:10 p. m. In lieu of these, show
was given on the pavilion, some artists
having been imported from Ogden. 1t was
very tart for the most part.
The bicyclists, however, arrived at about
7:3O, having been delayed in Iowa nine
hours, through smash-up on the Burling-
ton route. Notwithstanding their fatigue,
they were soon on the track and gave 4
very satisfactory exhibition. They appear
daily at the park during the week, and will
have an extra attraction on Thursday.

THE USUAL rRIDUNE YARN.

Hon. S. r. Thurman says that previous
to the convention he had told several par
ties that he did not want the nomination
and he had instructed one of the delegates
to withdraw his name if it was presented.
On Saturday, however, a number of dele
gates from the northern part of the county
visited him, and at their earnest request he
had consented for them to present his name.
Since the convention he has not said any
thing about accepting, or stated definitely
his intentions, either to the Tribune or any
one else. The fact that the vote for him
was not made unanimous, has caused him
to seriously consider the matter. Mir.
Thurman appears yet undecided, but from
his remarks conclude if the people want
him, he will accept.

There was the usual Sunday rush to the
bathing resorts. Garfield was largely
patronized by those whose only object in
visiting the inland sea is to escape the
heat of the city, indulge in an invigorat-
ing bath, and spend few hours quietly.
The morning hours saw a large number of
families at the resort, and in the afternoon
and evening, the water was fairly dotted
with bathers. A camera obscura is the
latest attraction at the beach.

A FALSE FRIEND.

Getting Into Prison After Trying to Buy
His Way Out.
A case presenting many interesting fea-
lures was commenced before Judge
Douglass yesterday afternoon, in the First
District Court
Pasquale Jacobelli, Of New Haven,
through his attorney, H. K. Seguine, sued
Antonio Caponano, of this city, for obtain
ing money under false pretences.
In an affidavit made by JacObelli, it is
alleged that two of his friends John
Deletta and Vincenzo Mentello were ar
rested for robbing the contribution box of
Bayonne church, indicted and locked up
in the Hudson County Jail. Campoanno,
it is claimed went to Jacobello, and
claiming that he was an interpreter Of the
Court, and had sufficient influence with
the Court to secure the mems release, and
obtained $3.50 from Pasquale. Campoanno
procured man, who, in going bail
for the two persons, swore to own
ing property which was not his, and was
subsequently arrested on charge of per-
jury. Deletta and Mentello were con-
victed and sentenced to- the Penitentiary
and Jacobelli brought the suit to recover
the $3.50 he paid Campoanno to secure their
release. Decision is reserved.

POLITICIANS HELP IT ALONG.

They Hope to Brighten the County Con-
vention by Threatening to Secede.
The grasping greed Of the Land and I'm
provement Company has been ably sec
onded by the grasping greed OF the
Hoboken politicians. For some years back
the Hoboken Democrats have been clam
orinr for recognition at the hands of the
Democratic County Conventions. That
has been-very selfshly,. most people
think-denied to them. They have peen
especially anxious to command q place
upon the county ticket which is to be
elected this fall As all the nominations
have been pre- empted for months, ii not
for years, there seems to be no prospect OF
q Hoboken man catching on" to any
thing.
WHY THEY SHOUT.
The suggestion OF the new county came
to them as happy deliverance. They
| would shout for it, and if they could only
make the local clamor for it strong enough
to threaten the county ticket with the
loss of d large part of its majority, they
might frighten the bosses on the Hill
into buying them off with nomination.
They might even, by threatening to cut
off the fees of the bosses i'll Office, secure
their aid in bringing about this much de-
sired conSummatl0n.
So they began to shout the moment the
new county project was broached.
And they have kept on shouting so
loudly that the stealthy foot-treads OF the
Land and Improvement Company schem-
ers have been drowned in the racket
On the surface the whole agitation
seems to be political, and the great scheme
of monopoly which lies behind it is lost to
view.
SLY POLITICAL WORK.
1t is even said that one OF the county
officials, looking for nomination and
reelection this fall, is quietly egging the.
Denny Mclaughlin and George 3.
Fielder are the slated candidates for the
County Clerkship and the County Regis
tership respectively.
They are both Jersey City men.
Mr.. Mclaughlin is credited with the
belief that the substitution of q Hoboken
German for Mr.. Fielder will add q local
and a national element of strength to the
county ticket. He is fearful that the
North Hudson Germans may cut the
ticket unless German be ON il, and that
the Hoboken workers may be excited to
effective vengeance unless a Hoboken
man be on it.
1t is the hope offorcing concessions from
the convention to the demand of the
Hoboken aspirants that induces him to
encourage the new county monopoly.
Whether this is so or not no one except
himself con cell-and he won't.
He is generally O pretty trustworthy
and reliable authority.
But when it comes TO divulging his
secret plans he may be excused little
preyaricat1on.
