After visit of several days in Seattle,
Governor Ferry will today return to the
capital and take up the task that awaits
him Of working the "kinks" ont of the
state administration. His visit to Seattle
has been delight to his friends-and that
means the whole population-who have
not failed to note with satisfaction his Inn
proved condition of health. There is now,
happily, no reason to fear that he will be
compelled, as he once suggested, to resign
and seek health in foreign travel.

TO A SEA vOYAGER.

The star that low on the horizon CLEANS
May be the star that for the sailor shines
That lights thy pathway with its golden beams,
Touching with magic fire the ships dark lines
Mingling with sea-spray till each small drop
throws
dazzling point. Wrapping in mystery
The gray sea-fog which, es the night wind blows.
Moves restlessly across the stretch of sea.
On either side the waste of water lies
EnfoldinR thee. The land shuts out my sight:
But that bright star within tho eastern skies
Sends downward to us both a ray of light
The distance fades; love covers endless space:
ThoughtApceds on wings across the golden
traeky
Two cleaning pathways through the night we
trace;
Our souls have met, and brought the answer
back. -Fidpo Scott Nines

A recently issued census bulletin on
railroad statistics shows that while the
population Of New England has increased,
between 1880 and 1880, about II per cent,
and the railroad mileage of that section 16
per cent, or about equal with the growth
of population, the increase in the number
Of passengers carried was about 9S per
cent, which marked difference IL attrib-

same effect are the figures for the Chicago
and Northwestern, which in the decade in
creased its mileage by 81 per cent, the
miles travelled by passengers 90 per cent,
while the number of individual passengers
increased 100 per cent. This is conclusive
that its principal gain has been in short

rnE DEADLY Drsxx NOVEL.

The story. telegraphed from Elizabeth,
NJ J., recounting the exploits and arrest Of
1.-THE Faithful Ten"-a lot Of boys banded
together for career Of crime suggests
the existence Of an evil quite - worthy Of
attention as is strong drink and unde-
sirable immigration.
These young fellows, aged from II to II,
were all well-connected, sons Of prominent
citizens, who had enjoyed good facilities
for education and were all members Of
Sunday schools. Their captain was
acknowledged to be the brightest boy in
his class at the public school. But they
had their grips, signals and passwords,
their burglar outfits and the like, and were
anointed with sleeps blood on taking .
weird oath of secrecy and allegiance.
For four months they pursued their
career of crime, battling the police, who,
on account of their connections, never
thought of suspecting these boys. But the
character Of their depredations, mainly
confined to entering and robbing chuTches,
candy stores and cigar shops, make It clear
that the chief incentive was the romance
and mystery of their new calling.
Fortunately they were detected just a.
they were preparing to rob an old man
who was known to carry about with him
considerable amount of money. And
inevitably they would have been led step
by step into oil manner of offenses, and
most likely some or all of them would
have ended their career on the gallows or
in the penitentiary. Beyond . reasonable
doubt this case was due less to naturally
vicious impulses than to the exciting Of
fects Of the sensational literature with
which the country il flooded.
And it is quite probable that large
proportion of the young fellows who fill
the chain-ganss and city prisons Of the
country owe the instruction Of their
lives to the same influence. The dime
novel is making criminals by the hundreds
Of thousands, and making them Of young
fellows who might become useful members
of society.

very slim crowd was at the races yes
terday and not much enthusiasm was mani
tested. There was some lively betting on
one or two heats, but it did not amount To-
much. There were three races. best three
out of five.
The horses entered for the first were
Elder Lucas, Linderman and Riley K. The
first heat was won by Lucas in 2:3415; and
the second, third and fourth heats were
won by Linderman, in 2:271l, 2:2g, and
2:2615
For the second were entered Lydia Allen
Blackbird, Busby and Harrison. The
three heats were easily won by Lydia Allen
in 2 :3S, 2:37, and 2 :39, respectively. while
Blackbird came second in each heat
The third race was between Muggins.
Silas jr. and Domino. Domino was the
tavorite, but he was distanced, and the
first heat was won by Muggins, in 2 As.
In the second heat Muggins also distanced
Sllas lr., making the heat in $685.. and
was declared the winner of the race.
NO race was contested very spiritedlv.
and, as consequence, there was a painful
lack OF enthusiasm in the audience. The
enthusiasm In the audience was also less
ened by the doleful strains of the Mill

the occasion, probably because ell the good

where the procession was met by the entire
garrison, commanded by Colonel Blount.
Headed by the military band the procession
then proceeded to the cemetery, and at the
monument erected in memory of the SOL
diers slain on Bear river, the impressive
memorial services of the Grand Army
were held. This was followed by salvo
from the battery, which was stationed Just
outside of the cemetery, and the graves
were then garlanded with flowers When
these exercises were over the procession
