PENNSYLVANIA has been visited with an
other disaster equally as terrible as the
johnstown flood. although the loss OF life
fortunately was nothing like 80 great. BY
the breaking Of dam above 1itusville, due
to cloudburst, several large oil-tanks were
washed away, and the oil catching on fire.
dashed into the city a roaring mass of flame.
Then Oil CITY also met with like expert
ence when the creek washed away tanks of
the intlammable stuff and poured its fiery
food of flame into that devoted locality.
Such devastation 10y fire and food together
was enough TO unnerye the strongest man.
1t was awful and can scarcely DO imagined

TIE proposition Of Mr. Erastus Wiman that
. canal shall be built between Philadelphia
and New York at the expense of the Govern
ment and the two great cities whose interests
are immediately involved, was probably sug-
gested by the canal from the river Mersey to
Manchester. which is soon to be completed
and thrown open 10 traffic. The idea is a novel
ono, but IL is entirely practicable. The fact
tl-at Philadelphia and New York are already
connected by great lines Of railway does not
seem IN itself sufficient 10 deieat the PROPOSE
ton. Manchester is IN direct communication
with Liverpool by railway. but tho greater
cheapness IN having basin at its door which
leads directly 10 tho sea. thus admitting to its
inland wharyes ships of the largest size. has
fully justified the digging OF her great canal.
Both New York and Philadelphia, il is true.
are open 10 the ocean. and thus have all the
advantages of ocean traffic. But transpor,a
ton between them would he much reduced
in cost by Il canal. provided that it could
be constructed at such small figure com
paratiyely that the tolls could lie placed ex
tremely low. This seems possible If the esti-
mate OF the cost OF the proposed canal is cor.
rect. namely. from sl5.O00.9O0 to s25 900, 900.

Now Thomas and Joyce concluded TO 20
Alexander and Mabry they went along too.
Because they expected some squads, not Il
few.
They climbed away up on the Powell block
The wind blew hard aud no one was nigh
They went through the hole and stood on
Where seldom before had been the print of
hoof
Now, Thomas he lay on his stomach, you
bet;
He grabbed and he rustled, but no squads
And Joyce he lay down with his back to
To get so1qs s of those squads very hard did
he try.
Alexander and Mabry, their hearts went
one gra66ed the chimney, the other sat on
They said to each other let's get away
We do not eat squads, but still We don't
fear.
So the SQUAD hunters left and went down
the ladder.
They may be wiser, but know they are
From ali can learn and all that 1 know.
They'll never 90 up TO hunt SQUADS any
more.

Capt Joseph Hennessev at the LindeiL
1T was in the spring of 1851. a wagon
train had started from ST. Joe for the
California gold fields In the train was
a wild, lawless fellow named Dunkirk
and man named Sentenev and his
eighteen-year-old son. An alteration
occurred between Senteney and Dun
kirk, and the two agreed to drop be-
hind the train and settle it at thirty

At the first fire Senteney fell dead.
The son immediately challenged the
slayer. Dunkirk suggested that thirty

head of the list of successful men Of
that state.
In the district of Columbia Alexander
Graham Bell must take first place as a
man of large accomplishments outside
of politics. The great inventors Of the
country, Edison, Bell, Thomson. Maxim
and rothers, who have all realized
fortunes from their brains, would be at
once voted place among those who be-
long to- "the one hundred" One
of the curious results of making up such
a list would be that we should find
comparatively few public men in the
list. Nearly every man who gets to
congress is man who has in some con-
spicuous way shown his superiority to
the average citizen of his district, but
when it comes 10 the great doors" we
do not look for many of them within
the walls of the capitol.
One Of the men whose right to be in
the list of one hundred people might
differ a bout is Henry Willard But Mr..
Willard retains the presidency Of the
great consolidated electric company in
spite of the statements of the New
York financial writer's that he would
no. remain there. His position seems
to be strong one. He told friend

money that he wanted. He has got At
