SPEAKING of Mr.. Homan's selection
rs Chairman of the Committee on APP
preparation, the New York World says:
"The selection is excellent. The reck-
less squandering of the Billion Dollar
Congress has imposed enormous expen-
ditures upon the country which the
present Congress cannot in any wise es-
cape, and the most rigid economy will
be necessary at every point where econ
omy is possible. Mr.. Holman has al
ways been notably jealous of unnecessa-
ry expenditure" And it might be ad-
ded that the Democratic party could go
before the people with better hope of
success on no other platform than that
OF economy in the expenditures as one
of the main planks.

OsE of the results Of the announce

ONE Of the results Of the announce
ment of Congressman Dalzell'scandidacy
for Quay's seat in the Senate, says the
Philadelphia Tisses, has been to set ut
rest all doubts as to the attitude OF L. L.
Magee on the Senatorial question Dai-
zell has declared himself a candidate and
Magee, through his newspaper, the Pitts
burg Tspns, has declared for Dalzeli in an
editorial setting forti, in vigorous terms
the merits and capabilities of the DASH
ing Fittsburg Congressman.
The importance of this declaraFson on
the part of Mapce consists lR the fact
THAT it means. a practically solid Allegheny
scealnty delegassn for Dalzelt ta the next
legislature. This will foru very res
pectable nucleus of strength Ed iself and
will donbtless inspire the snti-Quay Re
pu5licans il every Republican, county to
engage in the contest fog anti-tluay he
presentatipes and Senators with good
hope of winning their fight. The ao-
nouncement of Robirson's candidacy
will add to the vigor of the contest, Tor
while he will be generally regarded as a
stalking horse for Quay, his participa-
ton in the canvass will serve to make
the members of every club rejectedat the
Scranton convention take their coats off
to beat him.
The declarations, of Dalzell, Robinson
and Magee followlE each other as they
h;M.e done on successive days, nave pre-
cpated the Senatorial battle and furnish
all the assurance needed that 1t Is to be
the most hotly contested Senatorial
campaign ever witnessed IN Pennsyl-
Sa,nia. No small contingent of kickers
will be arrayed against a soEd machine
phalanx The Republican party will
divide on the merits of the candidates
and fight regular party battle to deter
mine whether Quay's leadership shall be
perpetuated or new leadership substi.

A Voice From the Tomb.

WASHINGTON, ID. C.,-Thomas J.
Brady, the indicted Star Route Second
Assistant Postmaster-General of ten
years ago, who, with Dorsey, was an
honored guest with Elkins at the Soap
banquet of 1880, has emerged from his
obscurity to say of Elkins' appointment:
1T is very gratifying. 1t shows that
the reign of terror of the Garfield and
Arthur days is over. But who would
have thought then that the King of the
Star Reuters, would be appointed to the
Cabinet of the first Republican success
sor of Garfield and Arthur. The world
do move"

TIE symptoms of the new grip which
is nov prevalent are somewhat different
from the two former periodical attacks
OF the disease. There is little or no
sneezing; the victim is first attacked
with shooting pains through the limbs
and as these increase in severity they
settle in the muscles, producing soreness
to the touch. The pain is not confined
to any one section, but jumps about,
preferring the thigh. There is very lit
tie influenza, nor are any other features
of the old grip noticeable to any extent.

OFF THE TRACK.
A h. a q. Engine Runs OF the Track on
Sixteenth Street.

About three o'clock yesterday afternoon,
while Sixteenth street, in the vicinity OF
the City Hall, was alive with people en-
route to the Park and Seiberts, big train
of coal cars, drawn by a monster eight
wheeled engine, came around the curve
coming from Seventeenth street, and,
crossing the vacant square devoted to rail-
road purposes started down the grade
leading to Market street Just as the en-
CINE was gliding across Chapline street,
big block of wood which had fallen from
passing wagon, threw the engine from the
track, and it turned rather sharply TO the
north. and ran clear across Sixteenth
street, the pilot fiLding resting place in
the gutter Just in front of NJ. E. Bashars
cigar factory There was sudden panic
among the people in this and adjoining
places of business, for fear the engine
might pillow its way through the centre OF
the establishments, but the engineer had
presence of mind enough TO shut of the
steam before he took flying leap from his
cab, and the monster piece OF machinery
was stopped inst in the nick OF time The
street was completely blockaded by the ac-
cident. and it seemed as though 1T would
take hours of work to get the engine back
on the narrow path ii had left, but Y ard
master w. H. Jamison, after having the
train backed out Of the way, reversed the
engine. and succeeded in running the en-
CINE back over the cobbles and onto the
track. amid the admiring EXPLANATIONS OF
two or three hundred people, attracted to
the scene The engine was not damaged IN
the least

TIE STONE BRIDGE.
flow the Work Upon it is Progress
ing.

How the Work upon tt Is frVsresS
Ing.
The work of laying stone II the eXcava-
ton for the NORTH abutment OF the Main
street stone bridge is making excellent pro-
gress, and it Will not be many days before
the masonry is up TO the top OF the ground.
Already about twelve feet OF stone nave
been nut into the excavation, each course
being two and one-half feet in thickness,
and laid in the very best imported cement.
AS each layer Of stone is put IN place, con-
crete is poured into the excavation be-
tween the edges OF the course of stone and
the bank. and as this hardens it binds the
whole into one solid mass. 1t is the placing
of this concrete which has kept back the
masons. but as the masonry gets up TO the
surface of the ground the concrete will be
done away with, and the stonework will
proceed faster.
