Remarkable Railway Facilities.

In addition to many lines of street cars
drawn by horses, the city of New York
is supplied with a steam street system
known as the elevated railways. They
consist of large iron bridges which Oc-
,cupy several of the finest avenues in the
city. The need for steam cars in great
cities is illustrated by the immense
numbers of people who use the elevated
roads in New York. The ordinary daily
movement amounts to nearly half mill
ion passengers, but on the day of the
great parade in honor of Columbus, Oc-
tOber IL last, the number of people car
ried was 1,O75, 537, and the number of
trains employed for their transportation
was II ,6SS.
This is all extraordinary showing, and
is indicative of high ability in the man
agement. These elevated railways are
under one management, the Manhattan
Elevated Railway Company, and en-
brace the following lines:

That the success of the allied Greeks in the
Persian wars, of which the battle of Pat;pa and
Mycale practically decided the issue. was
chiefly, if not wholly. due to the skill. wisdom.
energy and courage of the Athenians is empha-
tically asserted by HerodOtus
The mere fact that the ruin of the Persian
feet and army brought the Athenans into new
relations with the ASiatic Greeks and their
former masters quckened at once their sense of
duty, prOmptitute of action, and developed a
broad conception of mind decidedly in contrast
with the narrow and exclusive policy of the
other Hellenic cities and states.
In a period of fifty years Athens pushed back
the power of Persia beyond the limits of Asatic
Hellas, raised up against the barbarians the bar
rier of a maritime empire. including the islands
of Lesbos ImbrOS, SamoS. the CycladeS, the
HellespOntine cities and the Greek towns of Asia
Minor, and developed at home genius in art,
science and government such as the world had
never seen, and in some respects exhibited
higher standard than that which we have
reached to-day Is it not a fact that with GER
tain notifications that can trace back the
principles of our own government to a large eX-
tent to this period: 1t is certain that the age of
PericleS stands pre-emnent as the most brilliant
phase in the history of mankind

OHAUTAUQUA.

The Circle was hOnOred last Sunday with the
first visit from Warden WOlfer. whose duties had
compelled him time and again to postpone being
present at our meetings. In the course of his
remarks he said that he was surprised and highly
pleased at what he had seen and heard. and that
an education such as the Chautauqua system Of
fered was one of the grandest ideas conceived to
elevate the mind that prison managers. and all
interested in prison reform were watching our
efforts from distance and that he was satisfied
that our Circle was approaching this golden OPP
pOrtunty. He closed his remarks by saying that
anything that he could do to further the interests
of the Circle he would most willingly perform.
The Farewell Address = of our worthy men,
Der OF Glass A. was grand. He said that though
in a prison he had spent many happy hours as
member of the Pieran Circle.

The famous handwriting expert, Da-

the startling proposition that when
two signatures purpOrting to have been
written by the same person are precise
ly alike it is safe to conclude that one
of them is forgery

up by train robbers six miles east of
CHIPS last night. Two of the robbers
Grawled over the tank to the engine
and ordered the engineer and fireman
two stop the train. They made the
engineer walk ahead quarter

fireman to stay with them.
They then went to the express
car and ordered the messenger to
open and he refused and the robbers
threw six or seven dynamite bombs
at the doors completely demolishing
them. They then forced open the
safe and took out money but the
amount is not known. They made
the firemen help them carry the
treasure some distance and then
gaIloped off on horseback. The rob-
hers were masked with light cloth.
The engine was injured by the
bombs exploding under it and one OF
