needed IN ball dresses, as the latter more

HALF FARE FOR PREACHERS,

Western Railroads Glad to Encourage HUI
manizing Gentlemen of the Cloth.
ave are only too glad to give the preachers
| q half rate. remarked an official of the Mis-
souri, Pacific to a st. Louis Chronicle reporter.
1.-The eastern roads don't do il, but every road
in the west does. No consideration Of senti-
ment prompts us to it. either. can assure you
1t is strictly in the line of business. We have
found out that where there are the most preach
ers there are also the most people of induetry
and productive thrift There are vaststretc hes
Of waste places in the west which. when built
up by the kind of people who encourage the
growth Of wholesome religious sentiment, will
add immeasurably to our revenue. For that
reason had rather give pass to the humbiest
preacher than a half rate to the superb Inger-
| soil. have noticed that the preacher has
pushed his way westward the frontier has re-
coded. until now there is none of it left. He is
now taking the byways and the paths and the
wilderness is disappearing and the barren prai-
ries are blossoming with crops. So you see
that, from business standpoint, it pays us to
| encourage him to travel about by allowing him a
half rate fare. 1t is different with the eastern
roads. All of their territory Is developed to it's
fullest capacity and they can't hope for in
| creased productiveness through the preacher 8
ministrations. Therefore. they treat him like
all other passengers and don't give him a half
rate"

Some German Spelling.

From the London Telegraph.
In the German empire no department OF life
escapes the vigilant eye of government depart
ments One OF the latest instances OF this be-
nevolent supervision is a circular which has
Just been issued by the colonial Office at Berlin.
From this document we learn that the foreign
Office. at the request of the colonial council,
appointed u committee Of experts, and presided
over BY DR.. Herzog. secretary Of the colonies,
to consider the spelling OF geographical names
in the German protectorates The delibera-
tons Of the committee have resulted In code
Of ralc. which start from the principle that
all spelling is to be as nearly as possible
phonetic, and 10 reproduce the pronunciation
of the natives, not OF Europeans Then there
are detailed directions for the use of particular
novels and consonants, OF accents and hyphens
A promise is given that a gazetteer will be COM
piled in compliance with the directions above
given. A standing committee is 10 superin.end
the work and issue from time to time lists of
approved spellings, which will be enforced on

He Came From Saginaw and Had an Ear

calist, palmist mind reader and funny bust
ness" generally. He is just little proud of
himself all around, but especially of his sing
Ing. Lately he has been giving some amusing
take-offs on mind reading. Several nights ago
he had as a confederate a sharp girl from Sagi-
nav, who loves to prod him now and then in his
tenderest places. On this occasion he had
posted her on the mysteries Of mind reading,
and che appeared with him before a parlor au-
dience, blindfolded in due form, and took her
place ready for the performance. He held up
a lemon in plain view of the audience.
II have here, he said with much form, sin

and he bowed and threw it aside in the midst OF
applause.
Now" he continued. taking up a piece of
ice, II hold in my hand piece of ice. Is It
hot or cold?''

Thanks, and he fired it out OF sight, while
the audience applauded.
Next he took a shoe from the table.

stick across the bench and began to saw

LIBERTY'S NEW NIGHT DRESS.
1t Isn't Quite Done, but She Wears Her
Diadem of Fire Already.


From the New York Sun.
Evening strollers on the Battery have missed
for some time the lights of the Goddess of
Liberty on Bedloe's Island. About two months
ago the authorities concluded to make some
decided improvements on the lights. and the
statue was shrouded in darkness while they
were being completed. For the past week.
however, partial notion of the whole new
lighting has been afforded by the sight OF 50
much az has been accomplished by the electri-
clans who have the work in hand. The goddess
now wears fiery diadem every night. II is
composed of two parallel rows of incandescent
lights whose globes are of white, red and
blue glass arranged in regular succession.
Each of these rows IL made up of twenty
seven lights. every one of which has power of
fifty candles making a total power of 2. 200 can
dies. The general effect as seen from the Bat
terry is the fiery crown upon the brow. The
torch is illumined with q single arc light of
5000 candle power which is to have a large re-
fiector to multiply its luminosity. In addition
TO this skylight is to be inserted in the top Of
the torch. The effect of this will not be OBJ
served on a clear night, but whenever the air is
misty or contains dust or fog in any quantity.
the skvlight is expected to throw the light high
up in the air and to cause an intense luminosity
overhead. This skylight will contain glass of
different colors which will make a general
effect Of a softer and more genial light than the
ordinary electric carbon affords. Tocrown.the
whole. a powerful searchlight. placed on the
ground in front of the statue will be turned full
on the face.

Whence the Waters Of the Great Lakes:
From the Chicago Herald
Where do the waters of Lake Michigan come
from? is an old question, and il is question as
old as the artesian wells. Where do their waters
come from? Col. Foster, an eminent civil en-
gireer for many years in charge Of government
interest on the lake, was fond Of talking on the
first subject
Every drop OF those waters" he was often
heard to declare, ''came from the Rocky noun
tains." His theory was that they were brought
here subterraneously, but he never. 10 our
knowledge, marked out the course Of the sub
terraneous stream.
He announced this as his conviction long be-
fore-indeed, he died before--the sinking of
artesian wells in Chicago and the consequent
discovery OF the now undoubted fact.
William b. Ogden held the same view, and
used at times to make himself very interesting
in expatiating upon il. With him, as well as
with Col. Foster, it was no more than theory.
but he adhered TO il firmly.
Mr.. Cregier. who is scientific before he IL a
politician. is wont TO talk spprovingly Of the
theory in manner to convince any man.
The phenomenon is the running out of this
lake through the others of the easterly chain
and over Niagara Falls of an incalculable guam
tity Of water and this continually every minute
in the hour every hour in the day. every day
in the wear, and every wear in progressive time,
The lake has no visible inlets where then.
does it get its replenishment2 From the Rocky
mountains.
Through rents and crevices, down into cav
ems at the roots Of these mounts ins. pour ever
the waters from melting snow. Four thousand
feet they sink to strike a gravity incline that
levels with their floor under Chicago.
Under this city and elsewhere on the west
side of Lake Michiean-this is the proved
theory theory as good as proved-the snow
covered Rocky mountains are constantly send
ing their waters to supply howsge and evapora-
tor that is ever going forward in the watery
