Carl Finds His Brother.

Cleveland Herald /: Among the imm1-
grants who arrived here last week on the
Augusta Victoria from Hamburg was a
swelye-y ear-old boy who gave the name Of
Carl HELLER. He said he came here in
search of an elder brother, who left home
III Knowno, Russia four years ago. The
little fellow knew that his brother lived
somewhere in the United States. That was
absolutely all he knew of his whereabouts.
AS the boy had no friends in the city,
the barge Office officials detained him while
an attempt was made to find the missing
brother. It happened that there arrived on
the ship that carried the little HELLER boy
u Mr.. and Mrs. Wardnlan, who live in
Philadelphia. When they heard the child's
story they remembered that they knew a
man named Victor HELLER, who lived at
No. 33l Fourteenth street in BROOKLYN.
They teiegrapEed asking him to meet them
at the barge Office. Yesterday morning he
called there, and going to the Enclosure in

but when Carl began to tell him Of his

he knew that there could be no mistake.
and without waiting to see thew ardmans,

An Anecdote Of Sheridan.

b
The October Century: While the United
States was engaged in the great civil war,
France and Austria took advantage of our
comparatively helpless condition to at
tempt the conquest of Mexico, with view
to construct an empire there under Maxi
milin. Gen. Grant was strongly opposed
to this policy, and after Appomattox sent
Sheridan with an army to the lower Rio
Grande to observe the movements of the
foreigners and to be in readiness to inter-
yene whenever congress gave permission.
An orderly woke the colonel soon alter
daylight one morning and urged him to 20

unheard-of proceeding. What he did do

TIE RAILROADS
What Does the Rapid Transit Railroad
Scheme Signify
Business That the AlbuQn"rqu' Road Would
Throw TO Fort Worth-Jay Gou'd May
Come TO Te1as-Genpral Railroad News

"The city council has granted the
right-of-way along Front street TO the
Rapid Transit railroad company, which
proposes TO build steam railroad be-
tween Fort Worth and Dallas, and oil
now needed for the grant to become q
law is the mayors APPROVAL said a
prominent business man who is we'll
posted in railroad matters, to GAZETTE
reporter yesterday. NOW what does
this mean? The parties at the head Of
the enterprise say that it will take half
million dollars to put the line in opera
ton. This added to the running ex-
penses OF the road for one year will ill.,
volve the expenditure of not less than
81 900 600, and the question presents
itself to me: 'wnl the passenger busi-
ness between Dallas and Fort Worth pay
vestmenI?' 1t does not look to ms that
it will. What hen. is the motive in
building this line?
81 don't know nnything-am not on
the inside-but it looks to me that there
road between Dallas and Fort Worth
pretty well settled that the Union Pacific
road. of which this Fort Worth and Dem
yer is part, will before q great while
begin reaching out Tor deep water, either
on the gulf coast or at New Orleans.
There Is a very practical route from Fort
Worth, by the way of Dallas, at which
point the Texas Trunk line would be
struck, and which could be built on to
New Orleans. The Trunk, as II now Is,
is a bad piece of property and can be
bought cheap, and 1t is not out OF the
range of the probable that the rapid
transit line, which when built would con-
meet the Denver with the Texas Trunk,
could be bought by tho Union Pacific.
These lines all connected will give the
Union Pacific continuous line from the
Pacific ocean to the southern part OF
Kaufman county, pretty well on towards
New Orleans when the distance from
Denver or the Pacific is considered.
From the present terminus OF the Trunk
it would be easy sailing for the Union
Pacific TO New Orleans.
Now, mind don t say that this is in
contemplation as have outlined it, but
you can see yourself how easily such a
scheme could be worked. Anyhow, l
believe there is more in the rapid transit
scheme that has not vet come to the sur
face, and furthermore believe that the
rapid transit rosd will be built. Dou I
you remember when this matter was first
talked of that il was said that the motive
power of the road would be electricity,
which. by the way, will propel cars H.
fast and faster than steam? Why, then,
the sudden change, and why did the at
toruey for the company so strongly Insist
that II tsteam' was stricken from the
ordinance that the enterprise would be
killed. Let me tell you the rapid transit
road could be connected with the Denver
at mighty little expense after 1t once
got to running from point on Front
street.
81 tell you that it looks like. to
me, that the Texas and Pacific would be
psralelpd by mighty big railroad be-
fore many years..
