After More Business.
Ontario and Western Will have q
Lake and Rail Line to Duluth.

Before another season the New York,
Ontario and Western Railway will pro-
bably have a through line of its own
to Duluth the and Northwest. The COM
pany has been considering the plan for
several years. President T.. P. Fowler.
General Manager j. +. childs, General
Passenger Agent c. Anderson and
other officials of the road are out on an
inspection tour. About this time they
are measuring the Welland Canal with
a tape line to find what draught of
steamers will go through.
The Ontario and Western has extern
sive wharves at Oswego, and it has done
considerable business in connection with
the Opdensburg Transportation Com
pany. but it has no regular line, and the
purpose is to establish such service.
It is calculated that one of the exist
ing steamer lines can be induced to
make Oswego it's regular terminus in
case enough freight both west and east
bound is guaranteed.
This will be the first effort Of the O.
and w. railroad to participate in the
lake and rail traffic.. In some respects
it has an advantage over its competitors.
1t has the shortest rail line from the
lakes to tidewater and it can therefore
haul freight somewhat more cheaply.
This new move of the Ontario and
Western will give it much better op-
portunity to secure Northwestern busi-

The Athletic Girl.

The Athletic Girl has it all her
own way this summer. With her
iaunty blazer suit, her saucy sailor
hat, her general getup combining
masculine comfort with feminine
daintiness, she is ready to play
tennis or bowl, go yachting or
boating, cunning or fishing, climb
mountains, make a pedestrian tour,
or take spin on the wheel; and,
w1thal, she is a good horsewomen,
aud an expert and graceful swim
mer. Her brothers and masculine
friends enjoy her companionship.
for though indulging in what not
SO long ago were considered es-
sentially manly sports, she IS not
necessarily 'mannish' but is more
truly feminine than were the pallid
beauties with lackadaisical airs
who held sway before her advent.
When she is so untrue to herself
as to affect mannish manners and
become aggressive, she loses her
chief charm: and the natural result,
the loss of the respect of true
friends, soon follows. -Dem0rest' S

1T is A FACT.

That the old fashioned furniture
is revived.
That a man with a big head is
always stranger to himself.
That there is often more religion
in smile than in a tear.
That when some people get an
idea it affects them like hydro
phobia.
That to great many people
there is no hair brush like a soft
moustache.
That the red shoe and hose of
the same color is the rage at the

Blooming of the Golden Rod.

We are nearing the end of the
month of summer and the sultry
weather of the past few days gives
no indication of coming autumn
and winter. But still through the
country is thrusting itself upward,
a brilliant blossom which is sure
presage of autumn. 1t is the first
and to many the most beautiful of
the fall flowers, and the voice of
many has recently pronounced in
it's favor as the n ional flower.
1t is early for the golden-rod. 1t
is not often that it makes its ap-
pearance in full flower before the
last of August. But this year it is
already shooting upwards towards
the sun and opening its golden
petals. There is something en-
couraging and likewise something
depressing in the first appearance
of the golden rod. It is the color
of the sun, of gold and of vigorous
active life; it is the forerunner as
well of the brilliant colors of light
of autumn and the dry, brown leaf
and bare twig which mnst follow.
It is the first intimation which we
receive that we live where the
verdure does not gladden. us the
year round. 1t has a companion
in the cardinal flower which also,
here and there, is blazing in shad-
ed hooks and near quiet streams.
Both are forerunners of the in
evitable. But they are gay and
cheerful couriers and they are very
welcome if they do not bring the
very best of tldings.

Ballots Taken.

today. On an informal ballot Captain
William A. Gavett led, but when 1t
came to the first official ballot be did
not have enough votes, his opponents
being NJ. V. Bergman and Frank G.
Hecker. After several ballots Mr..
Hooker, the candidate of the Mcmillan
faction, was nominated. 1t was not
such a walkover for the gallant
captain" as was expected. Some
opposition developed to the ambition
OF the candidate of Alec and the
mayor, and this vote was cast for
Frank J. Hecker, the well-known car
manufacturer. The latter WAS not a
candidate, but his friends insist that he
will not refuse the nomination. Ia
an interview with Collector Hopkins
yesterday Mr.. Hecker refused to say
whether he would accept or not.

there Is an elegant opportunity to
select a congressman this year in the

ton OF the state OF Kansas. Ii has
been marred, a. you see by traitors.
One result OF the campaign two years
ago was 10 reduce the value or every
acre CT land IN this state; one result ot
that campaign was 10 destroy the capa-
city of every citizen of the state 10 pay

The senator then said he had been
cautioned to bs careful of what he
said about democrats lest he drive
democrats away who would otherwise
vote the republican ticket rather than
the fusion ticket. He SAID:
'Perish the thOugnt that l would
make partisan speech this evening""
and sitter q few more sarcastic remarks
went on. 81 would q thousand fold
rather that the electoral vote Of this
state went for Grover Cleveland than
for James B. Weaver. That would be
a mistake that we could rectify here
after. [Applause.l The other would
be an indelible stigma and disgrace that
would rest upon Us for the century.

party do not expect to carry New York
state. They have no more idea OF

rying Georgia. [Applsusel. They know
perfectly that the great conservative
forces of business and thought along
the eastern seaboard are arrByed
against democracy and IN support Of
President Harrison's administration.
We know that II President Harrison is
chosen for another four years we shall
have pesmanence and tranquility and
repose, but II Grover Cleveland is
elected We know that We shall have
sour years of agitation, of turmoil. of
disturbance and uncertainty, and We
are going 70 vote for Benjamin Harri-
son.
The speech was received with tre-
