TWO RAILROAD SCHEMES.

These are rather unfortunate days for
great railroad sehemes, but two such
schemes are of such magnitude and inter
est that they will be talked about, even in
these times. One of them ia the Inter
continental project, 30 long and warmly
advocated by Mr.. Helper. The plan is to
connect the North American and South
American railroad systems by railroad
running from Central America and 80 on
south to connect with existing or projected
South American roads. The pau-AmeIi-
can congress considered the subject and
recommended the appointment of an inter
national commission and preliminary sur
vey at the expense of the diff erent coun-
tries supposed to be interested The COM
mission was appointed, and three survey
ing parties were put in the field, one In
Central America and two in South
America. Recent dispatches from Wash
ington convey the information that
these parties have completed their
field work and are now prepar-
ing their reports and reducing their
field notes to the form of maps and
charts. They find that in order to accom-
plish the purpose a road from 4,500 to
4. 800 miles long mast be constructed and
that the engineering difficulties encoun-
tered are not insurmountable. What the
cost would be does not yet appear, but In
view of the fact that the country trsversed
is to great extent mountainous and that
it presents various other difficulties pc
culiar to tropical and very rainy regions,
we may safely conclude that not less than
5000, 000,0 900 would be required to COM
/ plete the work.
Two hundred millions of dollars is a
great dealof money, as those who have
lost more than that amount recently
know. 1t ia not probable that the Inter
continental railroad will get much of a
start this year, but 1t will probably go
some other year. While this country
is invited to- look at this scheme
the attention of England is called to the
plan of q railroad In Africa from Zanzibar
to Uganda. Routes have been surveyed of
I some 3, ZOO miles; the selected route Is 657
miles, and the estimated cost $11 200, 600,
an average of SIT ,045 mile, which is not
q great cost, even for a narrow gauge of
three and half feet, when it is considered
that steel instead of wooden sleepere are to
be used. The objections to the cheaper
and plentiful material are msny,-the
ravages of white ants, the native custom of
burning over the grass, and the temptation
to steslthe timber out from beneath the
rails. The station buildings, which would at
first be constructed In the fashion of the
country, of wattles dsubed with mud,
would have to be surrounded with live
thorn hedges, making bona or inelosure
about fifty yards away, rendering attacks
from arrows harmless. In fact, the rail-
| road would have to start on defensive
war footing. The road would pass through
Masailand from Mombasa to Ksvirondo on
Lake Victoria, close on the border oi
Uganda, which Stanley calls "the pearl Of
Africa" and would thus open that grea'
region to civilization as we'll as to com
merce.
Africa Will soon be well furnished with
railroads, and az the railroads go In 1t II
hoped that the slave trade will go out.

Aunt Jemfma,n Quilt.

A miracle OF cleaning dyes,
Blue, scarlet, buf and green.
o, ne'sr before my mortal eyes
Such gorgeous hues were seen.
So grandly was its plan designed,
So cunningly twas built.
The whole proclaimed a master mind
My Aunt Jemima's quilt.
Each friendly household, far and wide
Contributed its share;
1t chronicled the country side
In colors quaint and rare.
From bellies and br sdes came rich brocads
Enwrought with threads of gilt;
Fen buIom widows lent their aid
To Aunt Jemima's guilt.
No tapestry from days of yore,
No web from Orient loom,
But paled in beauteous tints before
This strange expanse OF bloom.
Here glittering stars and comets shone
Ger flowers that never vilt:
Here fiuttered birds from worlds unknown,
On Aunt Jemima's quilt.
o, merry was the quilting bee,
When this great quilt was done;
The rafters rang with maiden giee,
And hearts were lost and won
Meier did q Thong OF braser men
In war clash hilt to hilt
Than sought the smiles OF beauty then
Round Aunt Jemima's quilt.
This work of art my aunt esteemed
The glory Of the age;
No poets eyes have ever beamed
More proudly DER his page.
Were other quilts 10 this compared,
Her nose would upward tilt;
Such impudence was seldom dared
Ger Aunt Jemima's quilt.
Her dear old hauds have gone to dust,
That once were 1.-the and light;
Her needles keen are thick with rust,
That flashed SO pimbly bright.
And here 1t lies by her behest,
Stained with the tears we split,
Safe folded in this cedar chest
My Aunt Jemima's quilt

zine.

into fluffy fulness adds to the beauty of
this exauisite wrap. Moufion, a soft
gray fur, may be used to trim it, but II
does not look so cool and pretty as the
lace.
Current fashions make Of the item of
trimming Of gowns a most Important
feature. The tendency il strong toward
narrow widths, and this is most noticeable
In those csses which require wide orna-
mentstion, and which are often composed
of several narrow strips laid closely to-
gether. This rule can hardly be said to
hold good as to lace. which Is used pienti-
fully in all widths. Skirts continue, like
the hat of the song, which Twas all
bound round With woolen string" to be
enciTcled with two, three and more rows
of trimming. Satin ribbon and braid are
the more common mediums, and greene,
blues, lavenders and puppies are the most
liked shades, fsvorite and tasteful meth
cd being to have the trimming match the
color of the pattern on the skirt. when

THE LOBBY AND THE TREASURY.

THE LOBBY AND THE TREASURY.
An ugly story comes from Washing
ton concerning the appropriation OF
$4,000, 900 for the purchase Of the Chic
kasaw and Choctaw lands. A few days
ago Mr.. Cleveland received the deeds
conveying the lands to the government
and, apparently, the payment OF the
purchase price was the only thing re-
naming to be done to complete the
Transaction. Mr.. Carlisle ordered the
treasury warrant drawn and shortly
atterward left the city for few days
vacation. The warrant was drawn and
sent to the comptroller's Office, and but
for an unexpected interruption would
have been paid. At this juncture
swarm of lobby lsts, lawyers and agents
made their appearance, and it became
noised about that by the time the de-
mands of this flock OF vultures were
satisfied only little over 30 per cent
OF the appropriation would 60 to the
Indians. About this time Mr.. Cleve-
land received a letter from an ex-
congressman charging that the APP
preparation was procured by lobbyists
who, in consideration of large slice,
entered into written contract agree
ing to engineer the measure through
congress. Hall dozen ex-con-
gressmen were interested in the
job. In consideration of the price
agreed upon the promoters OF the bill
agreed to ''employ all the attorneys and
legal talent, political influence, public
press and engage such other agencies as
were necessary" to secure the passage
OF the bill. AS the contract is in writing,
should the matter become a subject of
Investigation it will not be difficult to
show the details OF the scheme. Upon
being apprised OF these developments
Acting Secretary Hamlin stopped the
payment OF the warrant and the matter
awaits the return of Mr.. Cleveland
and Secretary Carlisle, who, during
the closing day OF last week, were out
OF town.
The telegram announcing this sudden
turn in affairs states that the matter
will probably be disposed OF by the
payment of the purchase price OF the
lands to the Indians direct. A regular
army paymsster may be detailed to
make settlement with the Indians.
Should this be done S,00O,O 900 silver
dollars could be made useful. The

Humphrey b. Kendrick, the Cali.

one thing in the Sandwich islands at
tracted his attention and made lasting
impression upon him. That was the
great number of animals gone wild,
says the San Francisco Examiner.
These were taken there soon after
Navigator Cooks discovery. Some
wandered away, and now there are i'm
mense bands. They comprise wild
cattle, wild dogs, and wild hogs. He is
not certain but the latter have always
been there, but if so, these and a curl
GUS little wild goose are the only indi-
genous creatures.
''The wild dogs hunt in packs" he
said, land are exceedingly ferocious.
When domestic dogs go wild, they be-
come in time Il great deal like wolves.
These inhabit the higher mountains,
and are so vicious that they will some
times attack men if they are on foot. If
they are on horseback they don't usual
ly do it. The dogs are Of various colors,
and they are pretty good sized.
Large numbers of wild cattle are
also found in the Pine mountains, that is
up as high in the mountains as the
pines grow. They Craze up as high as
the snow line | have some friends
near Hona engaged IL the stock bust
ness, and they shoot down good
many of the wild cattle and use the
meat for their men. There are vast
bands of them. They are very fleet,
but they are in good condition most of
the time.
THE hogs that so long ago went
wild have grown small and run to
snout and tusks. They are very saw
age. In many respects they resemble
the peccaries. Away over south one of
the small islands are large bands of
wild horses"
