WASHINGTON, June 2a.-Two hours were
consumed by the cabinet yesterday in dis
cussing the new phase of the silver ques-
tion and other matters demanding atten-
tion. Although the discussion, 1t is said,
took wide range, it was necessarily
Il brought back to one important and un-
manageable polnt-that the executive had
no power in the premises, congress alone
being able to deal with the measures for
relief. 1t was plain to the cabinet that
the monthly purchase of silver must be
continued or else congress must be con-
vened in special session Immediately.
As the president had decided to call con-
gress together in the early part Of Sep
tember to deal with the financial situation,
and manifested no intention of changing
his stated purpose, the project of an earlier
session OF congress, it is understood was
dropped.
Among the legislators and others now in
the city the characterization of silver by
India Is, of course, the main topic of dis
ctssion. The most forcible expression of
all came from General A. j. Warner, of
>iiot pItSluClll Va iut ftilltTlCitn bl-

Washington. He said:

A Novel Submarine Boat.

WASHINGTON, June 2S-One of the few
novel ideas that have come TO light as the

CHESTER, Pa, June 2s-The fireman of

served last night that the engineer did not
slack up in rounding the curve near here,
and climbed up into the cab to see what
the trouble was. He made the startling
discovery that the engineer, Ebenezer
Craig, was dead at his post. The fireman
quickly reversed the engine and brought

THE idea of making good roads IS
getting a stronger and stronger hold OF
the popular mind.
Senator Hoar of Massachusetts, with
the assistance OF several employees of
the Senate, presented in that body last
week a petition unique in form and
mammoth in proportions. The
petition was wound around two wheels
of a bicycle made of oak, the whole
weighing 600 pounds and standing
feet in height. 1t contained the names
of 10000 signers from all over the
United States, praying that there shall
be founded in Washington a Road De-
partment similar to the Agricultural
Department, for the purpose of pro-
noting knowledge in the art of con-
structing and maintaining roads, and
asks that in such department provision
be made for teaching students. The
petition originated with Col. Albert A.
Pope, of Boston. 1t is l 400 yards long,
is signed by the Governors of seven
teen States, by Massachusetts Legisla-
ture, and by several banks and Cham
bers of Commerce. The petition was
referred and wheeled to the committee
on Interstate Commerce.

The Christmas season, with its usual
good cheer has come and passed.
Other seasons have their special sig
ni6cances to certain classes or con-
ditiOns, but Christmas is the one season
for all. It brings that period of bright
ness and happiness in homes of the
poor to an equal if not greater degree
than to the homes of the rich. TO the
former it is break, a change, lifting
up so to speak, into life for a brief
season of fuller comforts, enjoyed pos
sibly the more because it may be spas
modic. To the rich there can be little
change in this regard, but there may
be much in making others happy, and
it is pleasure to know that with many
such, the spirit of good will to men"is
directly manifested through bene.
licences. In the midst of the joy and
hilarity incident to the season many
are apt to forget the full intent, and
meaning of the Christmastide-the gift
of God of his only begOttsn Son to re-
deem the world from the evils of sin
cursed race. This is the act which the
event commentaries. If this was held
more in view there would be less Of
the tendency to heathenish festivities
appealing only to the appetites, that
seems to possess so large a class of peo-
pie. But the world is growing brighter:
the peace on Earth" proclaimed from
the plains of Bethlehem has greater
significance than in any former age.
Its full force may come slowly, but it is
coming, and the lesson of Christmas.
though to many it may be expressed
only in shadow, will eventually grow
into an effulgent light.
