G. "A. Hanson Rides Over From st.

Paul in 40 1-2 Minutes.
The breaking of the bicycle record
between this city and st. Paul has been
so frequent of late that few people other
than those interested have paid any at
tention to the time made. For a time
the members of the St. Paul Cycle club
made runs to this city merely for sport.
but more recently the bows have tried
hard 10 eclipse one another'S record,
and none has been more succeSSful
than G. A. Hanson. With record OF
little more than one hour a month ago,
he started in and yesterday made the
run in the unprecedented time OF 4912
minutes. Hanson left the East Seventh
street power house at SOB yesterday
morning, and reached the Elliott house.
in this city, at 6:5215. w. j. Martin and
f. Crawford acted as pacemakers.
the former leaving the power
house fifteen minutes i'll advance
Of Hanson, and the latter start
ed with him. Hanson overlook
Martin at Lake Elmo, passed by him
and reached this CITY considerably in
advance of him. James Elliott, the
manager of the Elliott house, had Oh
fered gold medal to the first person to
make the run in less than fifty minutes,
and the medal now becomes the prop
erty OF Hanson. The roads were very
rough and muddy, but Hanson was full
of courage. and sped on regardless OF
all obstacles.

seneca,s Pronhecx FULFILLED.

Nineteen hundred years ago Strabo.
the Roman geographer, basing his rea-
soning on mathematical grounds, stated
that land would be discovered in which
Atlantis was supposed to lie, and in the
middle of the first Christian century
Seneca, Roman poet, published some
verses, which are, perhaps, the most Gil
substantially accurate prophecy ever
fulfilled. Its translation is as follows:
Time will come, as years roll by, when
ocean will unclasp the bonds of Nature.
and a great land be discovered, and the
sea will disclose new climes, and Thule
be no longer the last land on earth"
That this prophecy points directly to
America is indicated by the fact that in
the days of Seneca, Ultima Thule. or
the Western islands. was then consid-
cred the last land on earth.

described because it varies with the in

With some there comes at this mo-
ment long-drawn-o symmetrical
and suggestive sound something like
the drawing of a bow over the mute
string of violin. With others there
is gurgling sound which carries tie
idea that the pair are in the last stages
of poignant Oscuatory frenzy.
Last and best of all the game is the
very choicest kind of kiss-the KISS
accompanied by the velvety, adhesive
sound that plainly says: "Now we have
got what we want, and would like to
stay here forever" Goodness gracious!
1t sets one all over in Utilization, or a
Naturalization, as you please, just to
think of it.
A kiss to be thoroughly appreciated
and enjoyed should cause every nerve
center in the physical organism to dance
riotously in a series of transports.
Such kisses go to the roots of ones
being. They are never forgotten. Their
memory IS too lovely to Ue perishable.
A kiss that is conceived in the pure
fancy and executed with proper refine
ment and intelligence, accompanied by
the necessary sentiment, ought to live

BALLAD OF BOOKS UNBORN.

Sad is the fate of him whose books
Unkind reviewers MAIN and KILN
Whose heartstrings culver in the hooks
That show their cold, dissecting skill.
They work on him their wanton will,
While all his tenderest hopes are torn;
But all, there's something sadder still
In thinking of the books unborn
The wounded author may find hooks
Secluded, by some vale or rill,
Where nevermore the critic rocks
Can rend him with their inky bill;
But oh. what solaee for the ill
OF hope deferred that waits forlorn
To feel the parent ruptures thrill
OF books that yet remain unborn
The would-be author, whose fond looks
Turn ever to Fame's sunlit hill
Chafes at defeat and sorely brooks
= The fate that makes his triumph nil.
He loathes the phrase, politely chill,
Declined with thanks" So let him
mourn
Whose bosom disappointments fill
For books that never may be born.
LENvoI
Princes (who publish books distill fs
Some drops of pity, not of scorn,
For those poor toilers of the quill
Whose books are waiting to be born.

NO ENGLISH CARDINAL.
Three ofThem Have Died During
as MANY Years.

Three years ago there were tt re En-.
glish CARDINALS Newman, Manning and
Howard. Today there is not one. The
late Cardinal Howard had been in
poor condition. physically and mentally,
for some years. He failed to remem-
Der his oldest friends, and sometimes
Would not take meals for days together.
For years past it would have been diff
cult to recognize i'll the pinched and
emaciated frame Of the cardinal the gay
young life guardsman who was chosen
for his good looks and fiue physique TO
lead the procession at the Duke of We'll
lingtOn'S funeral.
In those days young Howard looked
every inch a soldier, and it was greatly
to his friends surprise that they learned
of his going to Rome and entering the
ecclesiastical state. He latter.y Occu-
pied the dual position OF arch-priest of
St. Peters and bishop of Frascati.
These offices had never been united in
the same Individual since they were
held by the cardinal of York, last of the
house of Stuart.

then turned around and fired two shots
at Whitaker. Ore Of the bullets struck
Whitaker on the left side Of the back
and passed through his body. After
gazing for an instant on his victims.

RAILROAD ACCIDENTS.
Is 1t Within Human Power to
Avoid Them Altogether?

Is 1t Within human Power to
Avoid Them Altogether?
St Louis Globe-Democrat.
The Board of Trade of England has
just issued an official publication giving
"a list of the number of accidents to the
S45,O0O,O00 passengers carried by rail-
ways in that country during 1891. The
lives lost from causes beyond the con-
troll of the travellers numbered five, the
lowest figure in any year on record.
The classified list of accidents show
that engines or cars meeting with Oh
structionS or derailmentS from defects
in the permanent way are slowly dimin-
ishing. In 1881 there were tWenty-four
such cases. in 1890 there were five and
accidents, amounting to twenty-five,
came under the mead of col
lisions within fixed signals at sta
tons or sidings. With regard to derail-
ments, two OF the accidents were due to
the points of the switches not being
altered after the passage of previous
trains, one was due to point damaged
by previous train, one was caused by
the failure of a cast iron girder, one WAS
due to carlesSnesS on the part of the en-
gneer of relief train, and one was due
to unknown causes. Inadequate brak-
ing power was responsible for twelve
accidents. and fogs and storms for the
same number also.
In eight instances fault is found with
a defective system Of train dispatching,
want of teIegrapho communication or
lack of block syslem. Purely mechani-
cal causes, apart from human error,
scarcely appear at all, and it would
thus seem, says the Engineer in COM
menting on these returns. to be within
human power to work the railways
without any accident whatever. While
few railway officers will probably sub
scribe to this conclusion or our English
contemporary, the figures produced by
the board Of trade certainly show that
abroad as we'll as in the United States
too many accidents can be traced to
negligence, want of care or mistakes on
the part of officers OF servants.

A correspondent complains that he

to gIbes and fioutS and Sneers and being

asks, "who but the halter would suffer
by the almost complete disuSe of the

would be as cool as our faces (Which we

NEW ELECTRICAL DISCOVERY
The Latest Effort OF Instantaneous
Photography Described.

Electricity
Instantaneous photography has been
brought to such degree of perfection
as to fix the image of cannon ball in its
flight through the air, and now young
French chemist, Henri Courtonne, has
made discovery by which objects far
beyond the reach of vision can be pct
ured to us as they appear at the mo-
ment. Sound being transmiSSible by
telephone. NJ. Courtonne argued by
analogy that light might be transmit
ted, too.
AS the telephone consists of trans
mtter, a wire and a receiver, so there
was reason to believe that these three
organs might be adapted for transmit
ting light vibrations, and for this pur-
pose the transmitter and receiver should
be prepared chemically for receiving
and giving out light instead OF sound
vibrations. This was done by substl-
tuting sensidized Photographic plates
for the ordinary telephone plate. One
of the plates was placed in front OF an
aperture through which an image was
cast, and this image, it is claimed, has
been forwarded by wire and reproduced
at the other end.
