A RAILROAD ON FAITH.

The PlucIty Texan who Built the Arkansas
Pass Road Did Good Financlering.
From South Texas came 4 ma who
built six hundred miles of railroad with
u five-dollar bill and faith, and the bill
was Il borrowed onc He moved up from
Corpus Christi to San Antonio with all
OF his possessions heaped on Il two
wheeled cart, according to the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat. He got charter to
build n railroad from San Antonio to
Arkansas Pass &c graded u mile of it,
throwing a great deal more than one
shovel of dirt with his own hands. The
receiver of another ROAD loaned this in
defatigable builder enough old rails
for n mile of track. In Il distant part of
the state was purchased an old engine
which had been condemned six years
before and sent to the shops to be
wrecked for scrap iron. Two old cars
were picked up somewhere else ut Il
bargain. And that old engine, drawing
those old cars, steamed into San An
tonic. On engine and cars in bold let
tiers were painted in lamp-black: IS. A.
and A. p" With one mile of old rail
track and with the equipment of the
old engine and two old cars Uriah Lott
started the Arkansas Pass system. There
has been some tail financicring in the
history of railroad building. in this coun-
try, but there isn't anything which for
dazzling pluck quite approaches the
story of the building OF this six hun
dred miles of road in South Texas. To
the one mile of track three were added
three miles by B. dickcr for some sec
ond-hand rails which 4 street car COM.
pany had bought from Il narrow guage
company. On this basis 4 credit was
made with Il Pennsylvania rolling mill
for ten miles of rails. When they ar
rived there wasn't money enough in the
treasury to pay the freight. But it was
got somehow. Ten miles of track gave
foundation for bonds which built forty
miles more, and 80 the system grew into
its present proportions. This man who
builtthe Arkansas P~asssystcm rode from
San Antonio to Chicago at one critical
period in his enterprise without q cent
in his pocket. lie had transportation,
but he hadn't anything to buy food, and
he went through hungry.

A TROUBLESOME RIVER.

Destruction Caused by the Yellow River
of China.
The st. Petersburg Gazette referring
TO the latest i%nundation of the Yellow
river in northern China, which will
again bring a population Of more than
q million upon the point of starvation,
points out that these frequent or peri
odical calamities are the work of man
rather than of nature. Many centuries
ngo the Chinese interfcred SO much with
the stream rs to compel it to change
Its course and dig q new bed for itself.
But this bed the current has never
grown truly accustomed to- It will de-
post its immense quantities of sediment
carried down from the mountains in the
most unsuitable localities, forming
shadows and barriers which, when an
unusually large mass of water rolls
down, will overflow and break through
its dykes and inundate the fertile
grounds along the river bed. So 1t has
been for centuries past, and the living
generations arc experiencing again and
again that the sins of the fathers are
being visited with most terrible cruelty
upon remote descendants. 1t is doubt
full whether the river could be turned
back into its old bed, lying dry at pres
ent. But, If it could, the old bed has
been changed SO much in the course of
centuries that even there, in it's old,
natural and wonted hauuts, the cur
rent of the river might not become tran
quill, but be forced to produce periodical
foundations rs it does in its present
course.

Mark Twain.

The Chronicle of January 10Th,
gives the following amusing account
of Mark Twain's first appearance in
Virginia City:
Or. ali the writer's for the Enterprise
in its early or later days, the one man
who came to the Office the poorest in
pocket is now the wealthiest. He is
Samuel l.. Clemens, otherwise 'Mark
Twain" Goodman told the writer
that he had received several COM
~munlcatlCns from "Mark Twain from
Aurora, giving items Of news worthy
OF publication, and it was not until he
had written up fictitious account of
a Fourth Of July celebration, in which,
after placing his orator on the stand,
he made him deliver this first SEN
tence Of his Grafton: "Fellow citizons:
l was sired by q revolutionary soldier
and borre by a continental dam" Joe
Goodman said that thai sentence
changed Mark Twain's fate in life.
lie at once wrote to him 20 come to
Virginia and that he would give him
an easier position and better wages
than he could obtain by working in a
mine. Mark came, walking all the
way from Aurora, packing his blank
cts on his back. The weather was
hot, but he didn't know where he was
to sleep O. nights, and so he packed
his blankets. Driscoll was in the
Office at the time Of Marks arrival,
and, as he loosened the shoulder
straps and threw his blankets off, he
remarked: Dang my buttons, if /
don't believe I'm lousy" Driscoll
stood OF the book.counter, all the
compositors turning at the uncouth
figure presented to them, and Drisco
remarked that there was not q man
to dispute Marks assertion.
But with Dan de guile, already
employed on the local columns Of that
journal, reinforced by Mark Twain
no other contemporary on the Pacific
Coast equaled the Enterprise. Before
tho year 1870 occurred, Mark Twain
approached another writer on that
paper, saying: II have got to go.
I've got the gypsies, and have got to
get out of here" And he went. He
is now q millionaire.
