The Portelectric Company'S idea of Send
ing Fat Mil Matter.


The Porielectric company, which has re-
Gently been incorporated under the laws of
Virginia, proposes to tran init mail mat
ter between New York and Philadelphia
in forty minutes when it gets into opera
ton. TIE incorporatoTs are mainly prom
inent New York men. The nominal CAPT
tai of the company is S. 0OO,OO0, and the
promoters are sanguine that their sys em
will make a sufficiently favorable showing
to warrant the investment Of abundant
capital TO build and equip the lines.
The company has for some time been
operating an experimental line at Dor
chester, Mass, and Prof A. +, Dobear
estimates from the results attained that a
speed Of $50 miles an hour will be possible
when a regular line is built. The Dor
chester experiments have been made on
an endless oval track 784 feet long, and
despite the sharp curves and other disad-
vautages a speed equal TO thlrty-threa
miles an hour was made with loaded car.
Other expert electricians who have exam
ined the plant predict that it will achieve
the success predicted for it.
The track Is elevated and consists Of aD

There are two wheels above and two be-
meath the cylinder. The power to propel

The Secret of Good Health.

The secret Of good health is TO
avoid taking cold. This is especially
true in this climate. Its varying
changes from heat to cold induce a
great deal of lung trouble. People
take cold and it settles in a cough.
They take something to check the
cough aud it runs on. They say il
is obstinate, not knowing that cold
upon the lungs always involves the
kidneys, and that the proper course
TO follow is TO treat both Of the
great secretory organs. This il the
reason why REDS GERMAN CoUGH
AND KIDNEY CURE is so popular. IL
contains no opiates, but incites both
the lungs and kidneys to action.
The one takes the carbonic acid
from the blood and the other the
uric acid If both these organs do
their work the system is soon reno
waited, and the patient RECEIVERS. For
this reason, aud because it does this
double duty, REDS GERMAN CoUGH
AND KIDNEY CURE is the best rem
edy on the market. IL is mild,
soothing and acts at once. Get it

operations.
The chief trouble With this scheme &.
that II cannot be made to work.
In none of Of these states has the third
party made any show in The recent elec-
lions. In Georgia The democrats had
clear majority Of nearly 6o.ooo in 1883 In
1890 there VIA no opposition to the 6cm-
ocratic ticket, which po,ied Ios,ooo votes,
or 5000 more than In 1888. In North
Carolina the democratic plurality was I3,
IIS in 1883, the prohibIdonists polling on-
ly 7.7So votes. In iSo5 the democratic
majority for Chief Justice was $4,000. In
South Carolina there is no third party,

pendent democrat was $1,000. In vir-I

One OF the singular results OF the Rus
rian famine, and one which Is puzzing the
economist for an explanation, Is the enor-
snous increase In the number of mar
rIages in the afflicted districts. The
theory most commonl, advanced TO ac-
count for this matrimonial 'boom' Is that
that the fees charged by the priests for
performing marriages have been greatly
lcssened. The priests find Il more difficult
to get living than In bountiiul seasons
and have accordingly reduced their rates
so % to brIig marriage so to speak, with

a few copecks together and have the cere-
mony performed now, taking advantage Of

who have, 18th blind zeal, adopted pro.
tection as policy, present very cheeky
spectacle in demanding that we shall
