The Trolley System.

Iut JOufudi Ol
 The experiments made in different parts of the country to supply the motive pow CT for surface cars by the trolley system have furnished very suggestive results. It is the cheapest method of propulsion yet devised, and that of course comments it to the owners of the stock and the man. agers of the roads. There have been 8 number of inventions through which the electric power may be applied that are far safer and for many reasons more desirable than the trolley, but they arc all more ex- pensive, we are told, and for this reason it is said they have been rejected. The facts concerning the dangerous character of the trolley are not as widely published as they ought to be. There is so much "money" in the change from the horses to these overhead wires that even newspapers are induced to be silent, and the multitude of accidents from their use are very gin gerly treated, and in many cases wholly suppressed. It is now announced that ''it Is the intention of the combination of street railways in this city to substitute the trolley electric system for horses on all its lines on which preparations have not already been made for the operation of cars by cables"
 We are soon to have on the other side of the East river, in the city of Brook. lyn, lacking but little of 6 million inhsbi tants, over thirty lines of surface cars run by the trolley. Seventeen of the alder men, more than enough to override the mayors veto, yielded to the persuasion oi the railroad proprietors and gave theil
 consent to the change proposed. No one
 can say how large a fund was expended, ii | any, to secure such official action. The electric company which furnishes dyna
 mos, and has large royalty on their use | may not have contributed Q large sum t

THE CASA GRANDE.


 There will be some interesting buildings at the great fair in Chicago, but probably none will be more interesting than that which Arizona is planning to build for it's State building It will be reproduction of the famous Casa Grande, which stands in the southern part ot the territory. The Casa Grande, which is probably the most remarkable prehistoric ruin in North America, was first visited by Europeans in 153S, by Cabezs de Vaca and his followers of the ill-fated Ponce de Leon expedition. Four years later Coronado, during his ex- petition to the southwest, made it his headquarters. Then, as now, not even a tradition as to the race that built it re- msined among the surrounding tribes. The building was once the main gateway to an immense walled city, the ruins of which still cover the plains, and to such an extent that in the accurate estimate of scientists the city's population must have exceeded hundred thousand. The remains of vast irrigsting ditches and cemented reservoirs are found in the vicinity of the ruined city. By cleaning one of the irrigating ditches re- gently 150, ,000 acres of land were reclaimed. This ancient irrigation system will be shown by relief maps. The ruins of Casa Grande are between five and six stories high and fifty feet square. They are com posed of sun-dried brick, with heavy but tressed walls, and, like all the other ancient ruins in that country, bear evi- dences of having been destroyed by fire, for the charred remains of rafters still cling to the walls. All about for miles and miles are strewn broken pottery, ar row heads and stone axes, which tell scien- lists that one day thousands of years ago that city blaz-d with fire and was deserted by panic stricken people. Casa Grande is the most famous feature of all those old sun-baked ruins, and its unknown origin, the sudden and unaccountable flight and dissolution of the inhabitants of the city it guarded, and the deep mystery which has clung to it for ages, make it one of the most interesting subjects of scientific in. yestigation.

ONE MINING SWINDLE.


 Those who have put money in mines and never taken any out will be pleased with the decision of Judge Hebbard of San Francisco in the case of NJ. W. Fox against the directors of the Hale. 6 Nor cross Mining company and tine Nevada Mill and Mining company. During the trial of the case some of the ways in which stockholders in mine can be de- frauded were revealed. It came out that out of mass of ,887 tons of ore dug out of the Hale & Norcross mine during the years 1887, 1888, 1889, and up to July 1.1890, showing a valuation by car sam pie of $3,505, ,361, and crushed at the Vivian, Mexican, and Nevada (or Chollar) mills, not one cent was ever received by the stockholders in the shape of profits. There was one dividend of $112, 1000 de- clared during that time, but there were also two assessments of $112,O00 each levied during the same time, making $224, 900 of assessments as against $112,- 900 of dividends, and therefore a net loss to the stockholders dur ing those three years and a half of s112,0OO. The court finds that the stockholders were defrauded by conspiracy of the officers and directors of the company and the corporation in whose mills the ores were reduced; that the sum stolen was s1, OH 1885, and that the defend ants-Alvinza Hayward, W. s. Hobart, the Nevada Mill and Mining company, and H. M. Levy-were members of the conspiracy during all of the time covered by the complaint, and that each of them is liable in the full amount of S1 ,011 1885. As three of the defendants are millionaires, there is 8 possibility that the stockholders may get what is due them.
 Perhaps the success of these stockhold- CTS will encourage stockholders in some other mines to initiate their example. There has been 30 much robbery and swim ding in the mining business that it is very hard work to sell mining stocks. People don't like to be plundered and then ss- sessed for the expenses of the process of plundering.

 The ownership of an amputated arm has been disputed at law in England. The son of a man named Housley had his arm amputated at an in6rmary, and after the operation Housley asked for the arm and the surgeon refused to give it to him. Soon afterward he brought a box to the infirmary and asked again for the arm. Then the boy died, and the father asked for the arm third time unsuccessfully. Then Housley sued. The judge gave judg- ment for the defendant.

 The governor of Massachusetts has sent to the legislature memorial, signed by a large number of the leading citizens of Massachusetts, urging the establishment of new holiday in the spring, '1eaving the sacred and devotional purposes of Fast Day to be accomplished by the observance of Good Friday as a church religious fast day, independent of all State control or au- thority." Some of the memorialists think that Good Friday should be officially de- clared to be Fast Day by proclamation, to which the Boston Transcript replies: "A governors proclamation for the observ- ance of Good Friday would be incongru- ous to all who now observe it, and would be resented by all who do not.

THE SOLID SOUTH.

The solid South is rapidly becoming
more solid in business sense. The
Tradesmsn. published in Chattanooga,
Tennessee, reviews the business situation
in the South and says: Reports received
from correspondents at all important
points in the southern States agree in say
ing that mercantile business is increasing
and is in a satisfactory condition. Pay
ments are made promptly. The crop re-
ports are more encouraging. The iron fur
naces continue in blast, nearly every fur
mace being in operation, although prices
are very low. There is an increased de-
mand for all kinds of machinery, and
positive evidence of an improved situation
in industrial pursuits. Lumber continues
active. Textile plants are in prosperous
condition, and under the present tariff
policy many new industries are starting in
the South. Indeed, her resources have
doubled in the past ten years, and her
manufactures have quadrupled.
And all this time Mr.. Watterson, the
most conspicuous southern Democrat, is
shrieking "Protection is a fraud" But
his shrek doesn't make just the impression
he intends. For instance, the New Orleans
Picayune is being forced to the conclusion
that politically speaking ones worst foes
be they of his own household. The Picay-
une is greatly interested in the sugar in
dustry of the South, which it sees is able
to become an enormous source of revenue
to that section. 1t has been looking into
the sugar situation, and finds that not only
are there millions of acres all over
the South suited to the production of
this staple which are not now utilized,
but that by the introduction of improved
machinery the small planter who once had
no facilities for extracting sugar from his
cane, is now placed on a level with the
rich planter. 1t finds that Improvements
in culture and in machinery have brought
about a great increase in the number of
sugar planters, and great increase in
their profits also, but when everything is
thus tending to produce southern prosper
ity the Democratic party announces that
at the first opportunity it will repeal the
sugar bounties.
It is probable thas as the South grows
| more solid in business it will grow less
solid in Democratic politics. 1t can't af-
ford to follow Mr.. Watterson and the old
Confederate constitution,
