a ROMAN ALTAR I'm ENGLAND.
It Is Uncarthed in tho LittIo Town OF
Blncllester, County of Durham.

It Is Uncarthcd in Tho I.ittIo Town OF
chichester, County of Durham.
There is n well-known Roman site in
the county of Durham, on the banks of
the river Wear, about n mile north of
the Episcopal town of Bishop Auck-
land; it is called chichester. A few
years ago, says tho London Illustrated
News, some interesting discoveries
were made by John Proud, local So
licitor and antiQuary; but n remarkable
addition has been made by the unearth-
ing of an altar on the land of j. e.
Newly, the present resident of Bin
chester hall, who is now having water
pipes laid to supply his household.
This altar is of large size, four feet
three inches in height by one foot two
and one-half inches in breadth and one
foot onc-half inch in depth, and it is in
excellent preservation. 1t has sculp-
tured on its sides tho four principal sac
rificial implements, the ''sccuris," or
AK, the cutter" or knife, the .'patcra,"
or dish, and the 'prnfcriculum," or Jug.
Besides this it bears an inscription,
which, expanding the abbreviated
words, is read as follows: "Jovi Optimo
Maxine, ct Matribus Ollototis, sive
Transmarinis, Pomponius Donatus,
Beneficiarius Consulis, Pro Salute Sua
ct Suorum, Votum solvit libenti an
imo." In English the inscription signi-
fics: ''To Jupiter, the Best and Great
est, and to the Ollototian, or Transma-
rinc, Mothers, Pomponius Donatus. n
beneficiary of the Consul, in gratitude
for the safety of himself and those be-
longing to him, has paid his vow with n
willing mind"
The curious thing about this inscrip-
ton is the title given to the mother god
desses.. They were favorite objects of
worship at Vinovia (thc ancient name
of Dinchester), which was Roman
military town garrisoned by soldiers
drawn from the Vcttonians, a people of
Spain dwelling in the regions which
now form the province of Salamanca
There is u town or village now in Spain
called Olot, but it is at distance from
the Vittonian country, in the northeast
corner, near the Mediterranean sea and
the frontier of Franco. 1t is concciv-
able that the consular bcncficiaries and
others who erected these affairs came
from that region; and worshipcd, in the
Hrigantian territory in Britain, the DEF
ties they had learned to vcncrate in
their distant home across the sea-"

a Peculiar Herd of Wild Cat tic That
Still Exists In England.
At Chillingham, ncar Carlis lie, upon
the estates of the carl of Tanlkcrville,
says the San Francisco Examiner, is Il
hcrd-or the remnant of IL hcrd-of
wild white cattle, the history of which
is not known; but they arc supposed to
have been fenced in or inclosed acct
dcntally possibly hundreds of years ago.
The herd numbers about seventy and
does not increase; for great many
years past the number of head has been
nearly the same. They are extremely
shy in the summer, but in the winter,
when fed upon hay, they can be in
spcctcd mt tolerably close quarters.
They have certain points of the buffalo
which show in the head and hump, but
their horns are considerably longer and
sharper. No person has been known to
have been attacked or injured by them.
They arc of n small stature, not being
much larger than Il good-sizcd Jersey
COW, but their heads and chests are GER
tainly very fine. 1t is great pity that
no trace Gun be found of their past his
tory, MS they arc the only band of wild
cattle known to be in existence in Eng
land. The present and past curls of
Tanl1erville have been offered larre
sums for some of them, but all offers
have been refused. p. II. Barnum,
amongst others, having offered a fabu-
lous sum for two or three head for his

Ways of tho German Empress.

The German empress has been great
ly annoyed of late with applications
from all sorts and conditions of men to
act as godmothcr to their children. The
annoyance has gone SO far that the en-
press has made it an iron bound rule to
confer the honor only when she is ac-
quaintcd personally with one or. other
of the parents. However, in all other
cases, after satisfactory investigation
has been made, she causes to be for
warded to the unsuccessful applicants

hears that the parents are we'll to do
her libcrality takes the form of hand

would stand the speed of 100 miles an hour.
The train will be stopped by air brakes, the
same as now. On the road between Mil
waukee and Chicago we will run trains
every twenty minutes at the lightning
speed of not less than 100 miles an hour"
1.-The Wizard said the new motor could be
used for street railway purposes to great
advantage. He continued: 1.-THE system
will be the cheapest known. The plant will
not cost half as much as the cable, and
there will be no tearing up of the streets.
Why, under pressure l could lay mile of
track for this system in night.
ga pressure little heavier than the one
! use would make a horse lift his foot so,''
and Mr.. Edison raised one of his own feet
about half an inch from the Office floor,
''but the pressure do use horse wouldn't
feel at all, nor would man. You see, [
employ the heavy current with the low
pressure. That is the whole secret of
safety. The principle is this, that stream
of water 100 feet wide which falls a foot
gives the same power as stream one foot
wide which falls 100 feet. The wide stream
is my way"
The third rail for street railways will be
discarded. Mr.. Edison says the difficulty
of picking the current out of the mud has
been solved. There is absolutely no danger
to vehicles, pedestrians or horses.
MIR. Ediso said that if the Chicago road
was the success anticipated Mr.. Willard
would undoubtedly put the electric motors
on the Northern Pacific for carrying freight
and passenger traffic. He has offered to
run all the Pennsylvania railroads trains
between New York and PittSburg.

THE LOCOMOTIVES EXIT.
The Wizard Says Steam Engines MUS
Give Way to the Electric System.

Give way TO the ELECTRIC system.
OGDEN, n. j.. Oct. 25.-Steam locomo-
tives have had their day, and electric mo-
tors will take their place. This new device
for whirling trains of railroad cars at a
minimum speed of 100 miles a hour is the
invention of Thomas A. Edison. The Wiz
ard of the electric fluid has completed his
motor, tested it, and is assured of its COM
pleteness, and, backed by Henry Vii ard
the well-known New Yorker, will operate a
railroad between Milwaukee and Chicago
by electricity. Thus the era of steam loco
motives, those tremendous machines that
have been the wonder of the age, will end
the 400th anniversary of the discovery of
America.
Mr.. Edison talked freely of the electric
motor yesterday, and said it would displace
the locomotive for three reasons, viz, it
was speedier, safer and cheaper.
at will get one-horse power" he re-
marked, ''out OF from one to two pounds of
cheap coal, whereas six pounds of expen-
sive coal are used to make one-horse power
in steam locomotive.
sit will carry a train at 100 miles or even
200 miles an hour, while it strains loco
motive to cover sixty miles in that time.
THE motor will be safer for the reason
that by means of an indicator in the power
houses which supply the electric current the
exact location OF every train on the road
will be known at every movement. That

and will insure perfect safety so far as col
lisions of trains is concerned. This will
also be saving of expense in maintaining
the road"
Mr.. Edison said the trains would be run
by electricity furnished the motors from
stationary power houses. ''The current will
pass from the stationary engine to central
rail- between the tracks, thence through the
mechanism attached TO the bottom of the
cars or motor. A freight train, of course,
would need motor because OF the number
of cars, although a single passenger car
could be run carrying its own motor be-
meath it, thence TO The wheels, and thence
back by the side rats to the power house or
stationary engine. Three stationary en-
gines, each with horsepower Of 1000 or
1900, would run the whole Pennsylvania
railroad system between here and Phila-
delphia.

CORPUS CHRISTI, NUECEs COUNTY, TEX,
Oct. 29.-There are new developments in the
Pan American construction company mat
inee, and it comes IN the form of an injunc.
ton granted by Judge Russell, restraining
the said company from removing any ma
terial now in the county outside of the
same. The parties who are thus
restrained are JOIN. j. Sullivan and
associates. the latter being men,
bers mostly of the Pan-American
railway company whose charter was filed
at Austin few days ago. The injunction,
which comes like clap of thunder from a

the stockholders charging fraud and asking
for rescission of the contract entered into
on the Both day of April, 1891, between the
Corpus Christi and South American rail
way and John j. Sullivan.
