A Railroad Across the Atlantic.

From the St. Louis Republic
A railroad across the Atlantic il on the list Of
possibilities for future achievement Of science.
Many years ago civil engineer read a paper
before the French Academy suggesting a sub
marine railway. His theory was that at a GER
tain depth of the ocean, hundred fathoms or
more-far below any agitation from surface
storms the water is of such a density that
nothing in tubular form, whatever the weight,
can possibly sink! Having thus made q
foundation in the very bowels of old Nep-
tune he proposed to sink continuous
line of immense iron tubes-after the man
ner Of cable laying-in which a double
track could be laid between Cape Clear. Ire
land, and Cape Race, Newfoundland. and thus
send trains booming through the tube to the
CONSERVATION Of the sea serpent and the mortal
terror of the big and little fishes. The only
serious objection this academician could see to
the successful termination of this widest of all
deep-sea schemes was the suffocating effects OF
the smoke from engines used in Q submarine
railway tube. If this could be overcome. he said,
then the grand oceanic railroad only required
the necessary construction capital.

The Athenians Of the fashionable world are
at present interested in the suggestion of the
triangular table for dinner parties. 1t is done
by arranging three tables in a triangle. The
host sits at the point of the triangle, with the
two most distinguished female guests on his
right and left hand. The hostess occupies the
center of the base of the triangle and has the
distinguished men with her. The beauty of
this arrangement is that at large dinners the
host and hostess are not entirely removed from
the guests at the center Of the table. As is
usually the case they are SO far removed that
they cannot keep an eve upon them and see
that they are well served and are being amused.
But with the triangular table every one faces
them, is near enough for conversation To be
possible and agreeable, and altogether the con-
yereation is easier to start and to regulate.

alleged that the board agreed to decrease the
working months by one If the consent Of the
trustees was secured thus virtually increasing
the pay. The trustees assented to the PROPOSE
ton, but later dissented, claiming they were
be allowed the same annual salary for
nine a. for ten months work. A committee

Their mani festo is in exact accord with the best Bissellite opinion and declares fight until tho bitter end. Until one faction or the other is routed they will fight; they will fight with hands and feet tied. using mouths; they will fight till bread and butter is gone, and fight until not a vestige remains in Erie county of the once grand old democratic party. They are fighters from FightviIle.
