Insnectine the Leases.

The lease by which the Richmond TerIni-
nal Company controls the Georgia Central,
and the leases BY which the Georgia Cen
/ trial controls a number Of railroads in th is
state are being investigated by the legisla-
I ture. There is reason TO believe that the
I investigation will be thorough, and that all
the facts relating to them will be made
public.
The question which suggests itself is this:
vi hat Is the purpose Of the investigation
Is il to ind out whether or not the leases
are valid-that is. whether under the laws
of this state such leases can be mAdel And
II II should be found that the leases ars
contrary 70 lav. what theni Is it the
purpose Of the legislature 70 take
stems 70 have the lssSes annulled and each
Of the different roads which are operated
under charters from Georgia pl.ced under 8
separate management
That would be pretty big undertaking,
and at the very threshold the question would
arise whether OF not the stockholders Of the
diferen; roads and the people Of the state
would be benefited by such 8 course. II it
Is not the purpose of the legislature 70
break up the great railroad system known
as the Richmond Terminal it is not clear
what good purpose the investigation can
serve.
1t may be that the minority stockholders
Of the Central and other roads in the Cen
trsl system are anxious 10 know what is be-
ing done with the properties IN which they
are 50 largely interested, and what the pros
pect IS for their stock 70 retain its present
market value, and that they are the ones
who have brought about the investigation. II
that is the case they will insist upon such
protection as the legislature is able 70 give
them If it should be found that they are in
need Of protection.
That the recent publications in New York
with respect 20 the affairs of the Richmond
Terminal Company have somewhat alarmed
them there is no doubt, but there seems to
be ground for saying that those publics-
tons were in the interest Of a bear move
ment, which has the destruction Of the
Richmond Terminal system for its object.
1t does not look now as IL the movement
would succeed, the Richmond Terminal
proving to be much stronger, probably,
than its enemies thought it was
The investigation begun by the Georgia
legislature can hardly do the Richmond
Terminal Company any other injury than
that " hich has already been done. unless it
should be discovered that the company has
undertaken more than it can accomplish
or that the leases by which it holds its prop

investigation will be watched with a great

He Was In a Hurry

During the war two recently arrived Irish
men, who had made up their minds to enlist in
the service of the republic, says the Chicago
Herald, but were hesitating between the army
and the navy, went on one of the gunboats at
the Brooklyn navy yard in pursuit of informa
ton. The man-of-war had just been placed in
commission and was ready for immediate serv-
ice, but was delayed by lack of men to man the
ship
When the errand of the two greenhorns was
made known to the officer on deck he left them
alope in order to fetch some one whose per
suasive powers would be sufficient TO attach the
Irishmen to the crew While he was gone they
noticed one of the huge cannon and one OBJ

Italians sometimes regard things with
Iudicrous seriousness. Since the New
Orleans unplessantness they are apparently
disposed TO regard every trivial incident of
an unpleasant nature as an unfavorable
demonstration toward themselves. So they
were very much wrought up when that re-
cent accident occurred on Connecticut rail-
way near New Haven, and train load of
them would probably have roughly handled
the unfortunate engineer and fireman if they
had not done some pretty lively sprinting
before bowling mob of the swsrthy en-
bryo organ-grindero and peanutters. 1t
was probably very lucky for the sons of
Italia that they didn't catch the quarry in
that chase.

International complications may yet
arise over the latest junket of the German
kaiser and the exasperating comments aud
ridicule Of the more prominent French
journals thereupon. According to the
statements of recent Berlin dispatch it is
generally understood among German Off
Gals that Count Won Munster, the German
ambassador at Paris, has been instructed to
ascertain the origin of the outrageous story
published in French new spaper accusing
the kaiser Of having killed lieutenant in a
drunken orgie on the Hohenzollern. Al
though the German imperial family have
been accustomed to ignore hbels in the
French press, it is said that Chancellor
Caprivi, urged by the ex-Empress Fred-
erick, considers this attack in a prominent
paper too serious to be ignored. and it is
possible that, if an apology is not offered,
the French ambassador at Berlin may be
given his passports. not with view to war,
but as an evidence of the indignation of
Germany. 1t is understood that the kaiser
himself has not yet been made aware of
the statements of the French press,
and that when he is there NAV
be a scene in which the Frence legation
will figure. 1t may be remembered that
the present Car of Russia, who usually ig-
nores what foreigners say about him, was
accused some years ago of numbering one of
his officers in a fit of senseless rage. At this
the car was deeply moved when he heard
the report and caused it to be circum-
stantially denied throughout the world. 1t
is believed the kaiser, who is much more
sensitive to public opinion, will have some-
thing to say about the accusation against
him. Advices from the Hohenzollern
represent that the voyage has been without
incident, save the accident to the kaisers
knee, and that the kaiser has found the trip
most enjoyable and refreshing after the
exhaustion of his English reception. But
Of course such an unfortunate tragedy
would not be admitted, even though every
individual on board knew the report to be
true. Protection from scandal and the re-
suits Of mishaps are among the most
cherished Of the ''diVins rights" OF royalty.

Topeka ministers did not seem to take
very kindly to DR.. Talmags's thrifty
methods when he recently preached at the
Kansas capital Charging an admission fee
of % cents TO hear the gospel preached when
they could not even get an audience at
nothing per head was altogether shocking
TO their conception of professional ethics.
Nevertheless the Brooklyn evangelical star
performer pooled interests with q street
railway company and got a pretty good
crowd BY a little judicious advertising.
But that is bringing the church services to
rather shocking semblance of circus
performance. About the only difference is
that the star scriptural expounder talks
about the Bible and is not so varied and st-
traetive as the regular circus.

DeScriptiOn of a ThaW.

The cutters are babbling brooks that
purl a-down the thoroughfares, now
gliding with noiseless, sinuous motion
over the asphalt, and again tumbling
like miniature mountain torrents down
the sleeper inclines of the rock pave
ments, seeking with feverish haste their
goal in the catch basins, whence they
will journey by long and circuitous
routes to the boundless ocean. The trees
are shedding bitter tears. as it were, for
their lost glory, which fall in icy drops
down the shirt collar of the unwary
passenger who ventures beneath them.
There is an unevenness in the sidewalks,
where tiny lakes of crystalline clearness
form and lie in waiting for the impetus
Of footstep which shall send them
splashing in ghoulish glee up your trous-
ers leg. Rochester Post-Express.
