An Electrical Block Signal.

An audible electric signal for railroads was
tested yesterday at the l33d street station OF

tracks. the Joints Of which are insulated with
leatherod When one train Ia on n block OF
track protected by the continuance and another
enters. the engineer OF the latter will be warn
Cd by the falling into sight Of fiat iron han

nall box, which ia arranged within the loComo-
tive cab. They are operated by an electric
along wire, one end of which Is attached 10
the body OF the locomotive and tho other I! tho
made rs the locomotive wheels touch one rail-
at magnetlzed point and the car wheels an;

The latest weather bulletin complains
OF the want of rain in many counties of
the State; especially along the valley, to
event of no more falling a fair yield will
be gathered. A shortage of wheat all over
the world would be blessing to every
farmer, since it would cause it to rise in
value. Preparations are being made to
handle the next crop, and in this we must
expect very keen competition from the
Sound, especially from Seattle, whose
gcaln merchants intend strainiDg every
nerve to have grain fleet sail for Europe.

CONGRESS- AND THE CRITICS.

pronged Worlds Fair Committee tries to pull
itself together there is likely to be more fun
than fair.
BALTIMORE american: The II millionaires
In the United States Senate are said to collect
lively own more than SS0,0V0,0O0. If Uncle Sam
should ever get short he might call on them
for a little assistance.
LOUISVILLE Courier Journal: Since Mr..
Reeds able remarks on the habit people have
of not reading reports Of Congressional pro-
ceedings, the Congressional Record thinks Of
starting a baseball column.
Boston Globe: Caves have been discov-
cred in Australia capable of accommodating
200 600 men. Here is another suggestion for
Senator Butler, so busily engaged at present
in African emigration schemes.
NEW YORK Tribune: The Worlds Fair
Committee Of the House having been ap-
pointed, it can do no harm to remind the mem
bers that, though the representative Of rival
cities may be able to stretch the truth in an
emergency, none of them can stretch the time
between now and 1892. Moral: Be quick!
ST. LOUIS GIobe-D Democrat: There il soma
reason for hope that the secret sessions of the
Senate will be abolished before the expiration
of the Fifty-frst Congress. There was never
any good cause for the injection Of this element
of feudalism into our system, and the reten-
ton of it at this day Of social and intellectual
freedom is Illuminating and i~nexcusable.

THE TRAMP's HARD LOT.

Surely our gentle unwashed friend the
tramp is being discouraged too violently.
The robbers who stopped and robbed a train
at Tulare, Cal, on Tuesday last argued
firmly, but gently with the railroad men
and cid not harm the regular passengers.
But while the transfer of property, as trans
actions of this kind are termed west of the
Rockies, was going on. q tramp who had
been stealing a ride on a brake beam,
crawled out from under the train. The
robbers appar. 1tly not liking his bashful
manners opened fire on the tramp, and
filed his head with buckshot. 1t is hard to
hurt a tramp's feelings, but this one died at
once.
Now this is all wrong. EthicaIly the
tramp and the robbers stood on the same
plane. While h. wasstealing a ride they
were looting the train. 1t is hard enough
to travel cramped upon a brake beam, with
out stops for buckshot. Railroad restaurant
pie annoys, but seldom Kills, and if buck
shot is to be made a staple article of re-
freshment for tramps in their railroad
journeys, they will cease to patronize the
brake beams. We are afraid that tramps
everywhere will feel that every mans hand
is against them. Here in Allegheny coun-
ty 1t has been proposed to make tramps
work, positively work on the public roads.
In other places tramps have been set to
work. Out on the golden slopes of the
Pacific Railroad robbers do a tramp to
death with cold lead. To whom is the tramp
to turn? He will be forced to earn his liv-
ing in a decent, respectable way.

Philadelphia is being shaken to its center,
and the social pyramid from the Biddle
foundations to the mere Smiths in the cap
stone is trembling with a variety of emo
tions. Worst of all it is not very clear
ever to the most agitated what in thunder
has occurred. Two things may have hap
pened, each Of awful importance. Either
the ruling princes of Philadelphia have
been snubbed by the Astors, the Wander
bits, and the McAllister, or their mighty
highnesses OF New York have been snubbed
by Philadelphia. Anyone with half an eye
can see what awful consequences may follow
in either case. 1t is no subject to jest upon.
The social atmosphere of New York and
Philadelphia may be dyed blue with the
blood Of the ~haughtiest aristocrats at any
moment.
How did this come about? Some say the
representatives of New York's Four Hun
dred were invited to the Assembly ball, in
Philadelphia, and didn't come though
they visited the village by the Delaware
that night. Others say-but what matters
the details of the gossip? The potent fact is
that there is war between the social royalties
of New York and Philadelphia. And what
an occasion there is for Pittsburg to rejoice
that she is not made the laughing stock of
the country once a week by a swarm of
drones with more money than brains!
