discovery of America possible? 1t was
Isabella, who sold her jewels to fit out
the expedition that carried Columbus
from the Old World to the New. The
men who lived in the time of Columbus
laughed at his idea, and regarded him
as visionary crank. Isabella, with a
Woman's prophetic intuition, saw the
possibilities of the enterprise, and made
the dream of Columbus a wonderful
possibility.

QUICKER TRANSIT.

The iron posts OF the edge of the side
walks OIL Fifth, Seventh, and perhaps
other streets, marked "paint," are
looked upon with unusual and some
what eager interest of late. If they
presage better and more rapid street
transit in the early future. the local
public would see the arrival hastened
as much as possible. Few are much fa-
miliar with the electric street cars, and
there has been an impression that they
would hesitate at hills like those on
Fifth, R0nd0 and other streets; but 4the
posts are evidence that such is not the
experience elsewhere. Boston has some
thing of the topography of st. Paul as
regards elevations. 1t has been trying
this electric motive system in its streets,
and the success is SO complete that the
lines are to pretty much drive the
horse out of this business In the
city and subuIbs. The special ad-
vantage over the cable system
is that uniform speed is not re-
quired. There can be faster time
where the local conditions make it
desirable, and the chief ground of pref
erence over the horse is the better time
made. The Boston papers state that on
the lines now operated by the new
motor they have reduced the time be-
tween distant points from 40 to 50 per
cent, and will make still further reduc-
ton when the system extends over the
city. The line out to Cambridge aver
ages twelve miles an hour, which seems
to be about the rate of the suburban
lines. Some of them will be increased
to fifteen miles. In the thickly settled
and business districts the speed is regu-
lated by the circumstances. In Boston
but six miles an hour are allowed. In
this city thu electric cars would safely
make as good time as the cable, and
much better in the suburbs.

A SHIP RAILWAY after the style of the
one proposed by Capt. EADs across the
isthmus of 1ehuantepec is being con-
structed by the Canadians. This is sev-
enteen miles long, and to haul vessels
across an isthmus between the North
umberland straits and the Bay of Fun
dy. 1t will save sea voyage of 0
miles around Cape Breton and Nova
Scotia. The vessels are to be hoisted
to the trucks prepared for them by hy-
draulc power. Then two or more i'm
menSe locomotives will haul them to
the other side in couple of hours.
There is no doubt of the success OF the
plan.

TALK ABOUT WOMEN.
Mrs. Astor's

Mrs. AstOr's Mrs. William Astor
has engaged suite of
diamonds. seven apartments at
the Bellevue. and her
arrival is anticipated tomorrow, saws
the Philadelphia Enquirer. With her
will come some gentlemen and ladies
who are among her personal following
at the head of New York society. 1t is
conjectured that they will attend the
ball OF the Philadelphia assembly, but
this is not at all a certainty. Should Mrs
Astor be seen on that occasion it will be
interesting to observe whether or not
she will wear the dazzling display of
diamonds with which she was decked at
the ball recently given at the Metropoli-
tan opera house under the guidance of
Ward McAllister. That exhibition of
jewels was never paralleled in this
country, and could only be surpassed
by few women who wear European
crowns.

Once a

student of politics
knows the late Pennsylvania congress
man as the NestOr OF the idea of protec-
ton. Yet his first appearance in poll
tics was as Democrat. and free-trade
Democrat at that. 1t was always pleas
ure to Judge Kelley to relate his earlier
political experience, and but few
weeks ago he entertained few
friends in his apartments at
the Riggs with some very inter-
esting "reminiscences OF the FIRE.
mont campaign. at which time the Judge
changed his politics. Like all new COLI
verts, he was most enthusiastic in the
cause, aud accepted a nomination on
what was termed the 'black Republi-
cam ticket for congress. He made an
active CANVASS of his district, but was
buried under such 4 heavy majority
that he made up his mind that he had
enough of politics. ''But L changed my
mind" said the judge. "a great
many young politicians take defeat toe
much to heart and give up for good, as
intended to do at that time, ami in
this manner the country is very often
deprived of the services of men who
would no doubt have developed into
prominent and useful citizens" The
Judge said on this occasion that he had
often been twitted by his Democratic
friends on the fact that he had once
been free trade Democrat, but that he
had always responded that he was free
trader in his younger days, but when
he reached maturity saw the error of
his way, and was seeking to make
amends for his past.

Marriageable it undoubtedly is
more fortunate for the
Daughters. daughters of family
TO marry off IN turn
and in the order of their ages. If the
youngest go first, the elder sisters
may feel that they have been un-
Justly slighted and the chances
of their being condemned to
maidcnhOod are increased. They may
think that they are cast more deeply in
the shade. As she goes to the marriage
altar in her blooming youth, their great
er maturity may be made unpleaSantly
prominent, and they themselves may
feel all the older because of compari-
sons they imagine will be made.
Therefore. it is the habit of some
mothers to hold back from view young
daughter with unmarried sisters who
are her seniors. and who do not possess
charms which equal her own. She
will. perhaps, be kept i'll short dresses
far beyond the time when she is
entitled to wear long gowns, and be
treated in the family circle as a child
not yet eligible for the matrimony
which has eluded the most vigorous
pursuit of her elder sisters.
1t is great mistake for an intrlgu-
ing mamma. praisew0rthy though she
may be in her desire for the success of
daughters so long worsted in the con-
test, to insist on compelling men to
marry them in the order of
their ages. She might begin with each
as she came of marriageable age, and,
by clever strategy, secure husband for
her. But if she fails i'll doing that, if
season after season and year after year
pass by. and they still remain unsought,
until the youngest has grown into
woman, she would be wiser to give up
the attempt, and let nature take its
course.

TALMAGE MAY LEAVE BROOKLYN
