"A stirling paper is that of Thomas
Curtis Clarke i'll scriLncr's iiagazine on
the ne, 'ssity for rapid transit in cities.
1t suggests the mighty need for new
Edison to arise, one who shall enable
100000 people a day to go to and from
their city work to their hom.s with
speed and safety. In every part of the
Union the cly is the same The cities
long since cutgrew the old fashioned
stage conveyance. They have now out
grown horse car conveyance and are I'M
comfortably waiting for that which
shall succeed it.
More Americans than Europeans
make the daily trip to business from the
suburb. In New York ,643, 900 persons
a day-a number equal to the whole
population Of the city-come to and go
from their business ON the little island
of Manhattan daily. They are knocked
about. injured and occasionally some
have been killed in the effort to crowd
three persons into car space only large
enough for one.
In Chicago there is the same trouble,
even with the cable lines running swift
ly to and fro. The greatest growth of
Chicago dates from the completion of
these cable lines. Mr.. Clarke tells us.
Increased facilities for rapid transporta-
ton increase the population, which in
turn demands new rapid transit facili-
ties, and so the two act and react on
each other. Boston finds great comfort
and satisfaction thus far in the electric
overhead trolley system. which she has
adopted and CEds it simple and eco
nomical. But Boston is not one of our
largest cities.
One unexpected fact we find in the
paper, and that is that suburban trans
portation for short distances in America
costs less than half as much as i. does in
Europe. Tie result is that in America
the tendency is to scatter city popula-
tons from the center outward, while in
Europe the movement is toward jam
ming it all up in the center

after the wrotched Jews had been beat
en- and kicked to death, the mob wreak-
ed its fury further by mutilating the
corpses, as the veriest savages would
have done. Yet we sit over our tea
tables and calmly take it for granted
that we are civilized,' says Herbert
Spencer. 1t is mistake. We are not
civilized, so long us such horrors occur
in any part of the world that is SUP
posed to be enlightened. The Jews
were in 10 way connected with the
grievances that caused these savages to
strike. They We're merely Jews-that
was enough. The outbreak of this cruel
persecution Of the Jew in the last DAYS
of the Nineteenth century is strange
and apparently unaccountable social
phenomenor. 1t is a disgrace to the
world.

"A Cup That Tells of Poison.

The rhinoceros horn cup was once
supposed to indicate the presence of any
kind of poison. 1t is no longer employed
in that capacity. and many persons sup
pose that the use of such an article was
purely IA superstition. 1t had its foun-
dation however, in scientific fact.
Most poisOns are acid, and acid of any
kind poured into IA rhinoceros horn cup
will at once bubble and effervesce. It
is exceedingly curious that such an APP
parent superstition had its foundation in
such fact, but perhaps the ancients
knew more about such things than we
give them credit for.-New York Jour

sor McKim, who has toured the civilized
world, is one of the few experienced
aeronauts who find it difficult to aban-
don the profession, about which there
exists a fascination, even in the danger.
Taken all in all it is as great game of
chance as ever played by man, with this
difference-that the aeronaut has no op-
ponent, and should he fail no one is
gamer through his defeat.

Fresh fish, especially of the smelt va
riety, are a drug on the market in the
state of Washington just now. Some of
the rivers arc choked in their most mar
row parts by the finny inhabitants. A
fisherman can stand on the bank il
many places, and with few sweeps of
a common dip net get more fish than he
can carry away. Thousands Of pound
have been salted. Old residents say
that this is the most phenomenal run of
fish they have ever seen.
