Ninety Miles an Hour.

A mile in 80 As seconds or at the rate
OF over ninety miles an hour is the fast
est run ever made by railroad train.
This unparalleled feat was accomplished
the other day on the Bound Brook rail-
road between Neshaminy Falls, Penn,
and Langhorne by engine No. 206,
drawing two ordinary coaches and Presi-
dent McLeod's private car "Reading,"
which Is equal to two coaches in weight.
Other miles were reeled off with speed
as astonishing as this crack mile, and at
the second Of the ''hy'' the worlds
record was broken. The fastest mile
was scored in 80 AS seconds. The fast
est five miles in three minutes, 26 4-5
seconds. Tho fastest ten miles in seven
minutes, twelve seconds, averaging forty
three seconds per mile. The occasion
for this race against time grew out of
some good natured chatting that took
place at Judge Green's dinner to the
Farmers Club at the judges residence
in Easton. William M. Singerly was
telling Mr.. Mcleod, the President of the
Reading Railroad Company, that for
thirteen years he had been making it a
diversion to time fast railroad trains, and
that he had rarely Travelled faster than
fifty seconds. The result of the CONVEX
sation was that President Mcleod made
preparations for yesterdays speed trial
and invited Mr.. Singerly and number
of friends to ride on the train, consist
ing of an engine and three cars. The
engine was No. 206, of the Wootten pat
tern, burning anthracite coal. 1t has
five feet eight inch driving wheels, and
is one of the ordinary patterns of fast
engines in use on the Philadelphia and
Reading Railroad. 1t was built at Read
ing, Penn, and stands to-day as a tri-
umph of the skill of American mechan-
les. The locomotive was handled by
Engineer John Hogan, and the fires
were looked after by Oscar Feshner.--

+ A satisfactory test Is said to have been
made of new machine designed for use
on railroads to clear away wrecks, whose
simplicity and power arc such ''that a
small boy would not have the slightest
difficulty in pulling an engine or car out
of ditch" with its aid. 1t is the in
vcntion of a citizen of Newton, Mich.
1t has been put to practical use as a
puller of stumps, which it is said to ex-
trpate as easily as clawhammer pulls
tacks. A stock company is to be organ
lied to put the machine on the market.

OVER THE RANGE

Over beyond yon mountain range,
That dim, blue, spreading line,
There lies a country wondrous strange,
A country that is mine.
You may have crossed that highest peal
But, prithee, tell It not;
The spell may vanish II you speak
OF that enchanted spot
When was young and full Of dreams,
And watched tho red sun set,
1 thought caught the golden CLEANS
OF rounded minaret,
OF tower, and of tapering spire,
Reflected in the skies, 49,
Then thought Thought lit by desirel,
Beyond some city lies.
When twilight faded into night,
And o FER the heated earth
Blew Southland zephyr, cool and light,
Which walked new dreams TO birth,
And on the breeze a fragrance few
That fingered in the air,
This sweet conclusion then drew
The Land of Flowers is there.
Now youth has gone-my other dreams
Have faded into naught;
But with the golden sunset streams
Still lives one youthful thought;
And fairyland my musing fills
1t may not, may not be-
But yet beyond that range of hills
will not go to see. -.

An EIeetrode in the stomach.

Herr Einhorn, medical electrician,
has devised an electrode for entering the
stomach so as to enable the operator tc
send a current Of electricity from the in
terror of the body TO the exterior, or
vice versa. The electrode consists of
fine wire, which IS Inclosed in an india.
rubber tube, terminating in a capsule.
The capsule is perforated so as to allow
the current in the wire to escape TO the
stomach, while preventing the wire
from touching the coats Of the latte.
The patient drinks some water and
swallows the capsule like pill. The
other electrode is applied to the skin

The Old Paint brushes.

"What becomes of all the old paint
brushesp / heard a curious individual
ask a New York painter of prominence
recently. The answer was a revelation
to me, as it will be probably to many
readers of the Republic. "They are
gathered up here in New York." was
the reply, "by one individual, who visits
all the shops regularly and buys ther on
the same principle that the rag-picker
buys old rags. He takes them to his
shop, soaks them in a chemical prepara-
tion and bleaches them. He then sells
them TO the toothbrush manufacturers,
who make them up into tooth-brushes of
the finest and most costly brand"
The Gossiper does not tell this story
for the purpose of make teeth cleaning
unpopular, and he hopes that ladies with
beautiful teeth will continue on the best
of terms with their tooth powder aud the
little machine with which they apply it.

no CLOUD.

Under the the bending mountain skies
lay, with half-shut, dreamy eyes,
In the sweetest NOR tn of spring
When a little cloud came, so soft and white,
1t seemed but fieecy streak of light,
Or the flash Of an angels wing.
had marked the mountains ftful mood,
Its tall head wrapped in flame-red hood,
Or its base in misty shroud;
But through all its cliffs where sunbeams
played,
And In all its shifting light and shade,
There wasnothing like the cloud.
So fair, so far, it seemed to float,
With the airy grace of white winged boat,
And the deep-blue sky for a sea,
1t might have been that an angel crew
Were voyaging the distant blue
With tho Pilot Of Galilee.
winsome ship of the upper sea,
My fettered thought looks up to thee
In thy supernal place,
And longs thine airy decks to tread,
Thy cloudland-charted course to thread
Through realms Of trackless space.
In vain does blinded science guess
The texture Of thy dowy dress
With earthly mechanism
l view thee through another glass,
And make thy borrowed beauty pass
Through Fancy's finer PRISM
But, ah no cloud-compelling Jove
7 I
To stay thy wayward flight;
And while strain my yearning eye,
Thy trailing banners through the sky
Are bidding me goodnight.

Widespread interest has been aroused

exposures of Mr.. William Hosea Ballou.
The Montreal Star states that he aroused
discussions in the Canadian Ministry as
well as on both sides of the Atlantic, and
gave rise to a question of international
Importance. Here is British newspaper
