PROBLEM OF TRANSIT.

Conc ntratlon of population in the
heart great cities emphasizes the de-
ard for safe and speedy ways of
travel between business centers and
suburban resident localities. To the
suburban resident the subj c. OF rapid
transportation is most imperative one.
Upon It's effectiveness depends his sue
cess. Unfortunately capitalists do not
build railroads for the perfection OF
sanitation, nor for home comforts.
Street railways are built to bring in
money to the projectors. Time is an
important factor in this problem, and
IT must be reduced without increase of
cost or decrease of safety. IL the
speed Is doub ed the time is halved
and the extreme limits of the settled
rict are brought to a point midway
to The center OF population. The ele-
waited railway can not meet all the re-
quirements for many reasons, chief of
which Is the great expense encountered
IN tie purchase of properties or in
Identification for damages. The
experience of New York with
Its elevated roads is that they
have reached the limit as to
speed, cost and capacity. While the
underground railway seems to answer
the demand for rapid transit there are
localities where its introduction would
be impractIcable if not impossible be-
cause OF the physical conditions of the
CITY. Chicago, with an eye to the pos
sibilities of q crush at the woili's fair
has appointed commission of prom
inent engineers to collect statistics and
digest plans. The marshy character oil
the soil and the fat that the ground
water lies 81 near the surface render the
elevated line more desirable IN that
city. There are numerous ways of
elevating the roadway. Among these
Is the plan of N. Hoag who proposes to
open an avenue ILLS feet wide through
the center OF Paris and construct a
four-track arcade fifty feet wide with
side streets each over sixty feet wide.
The cost of acquiring the right of way
is estimated at 81 500, 900 per mile. The
total cost including all expenses OF
whatever nature Is placed at ST, 500, ,0OO
per mile. In contrast TO this Is the
metropolitan tundergrourd) road of
Berlin the total cos; of which including
the right of way was 81, 600 per
mile, of which AZ per cent was for the
purchase Of property.

Tho Color OF Amber.

The color Of amber Is Of all shades, from
a pale straw color to deep orange. A
species called the Fslernisn, from its smi-
larity Ia color to the celebrated rich, gold
en- wine OF that name, was the most priced
by the Romans. The clearness is OF all de-
grees, from perfect transparency to cloudy
opacity.
1t is brittle, but 1t can be easily cut with
a sharp knife, When rubbed il develops
electrical properties and attracts light
bodies, and doubtless it was this fact that
early drew attention to it aud invested 1t
with the romantic interest that attached to
it in ancient times es-Philadelphia Times.

WAR WITH CHILE.

All prospect of war with Chile Is prob
ably over, and the United States has rea-
son for congratulation that peace is
assured. There would be small glory in
reducing a small power of three millions
to submission, and it would have been no
easy task. War with remote country
like Chile would forbid the employment
Of any large land force, and consequently
it would be one of blockade and naval
operations. To carry it on successfully
We should require at least dozen such
ships as our recently completed cruisers,
besides numerous smaller war vessels and
transports, and at least 10000 men; the
latter not for operations in the interior,
but to hold such fortified places as points
d'appuis on shore and to maintain coaling
and supply stations. There are no good
harbors to the north of Valparaiso. Co
quImbo, however, is situated at the bottom
of deep bay. and would furnish sufficient
protection for our transports, and there
We might effect Judgment, and protected
by strong earthworks and such armed
vessels as We could spare from the block
ouc vi OtttT pOEts, VIC shSAS AAAs''A-
tain coaling station.
The best harbor, and the only good one
on the whole Chilean coast. is Taquahuana,
some 400 miles, by the coast line, south of
Valparaiso. the latter having for harbor
merely deep bav, with headiands too far
apart to render it safe from naval attack.
The Central Chilean railway from San
~. aSt Of
10000 inhabitants, a few miles from this
bay and harbor of Taquahuana. 1t would
also be necessary to blockade the ports OF
Antofogasta, Taltal, Iquique, Pisagua,
ETC., in the nitrate region, in order to cut
off the export of that substance. three
fourths of which is shipped from Iquique,
fiourishing place of some $1,000 inhabi-
tants. on railroad tapping the nitrate
works east of the coast range of mount
aims.
We should have to depend upon San
Francisco for our coal supply. There are
mines of good bituminous coal near
Taquahuana bay, but without large land
force we could not obtain a supply from
that source. For these highly interesting
facts concerning Chile We are indebted to
a long letter contributed to the New York
Sun by John G. Walker, of Washington
City. Mr.. Walker, who has resided in
Chile, closes his letter as follows:
Notwithstanding our vast superiority OF re-
sources in a war with Chile we should have no
"walk-over" contest. for there are no prouder
or Drawer people than the Chileans, and. in
fact, their pride, say their enemies, Is so
excessive to amount to arrogance, and
our sailors in this war must make up
their minds to some good, hard, honest fight
ing. Their soldiers, drawn from the mid
die and lower masses, who are the descendants
oil che Spanish colonists and Aurocanian In
dians, are by far the superior in courage and in
telligence TO any other native tribes OF either OF
the American continents. The mixed race con-
stitutes the basis of the Chilean people, and fur
nishes its soldiers and sailors, and there are no
drawer in the world.
