THE ROAD TO YESTERDAY.

Will some wiso man who has journeycd
Over land and over sea
To the countries where tho rainbow
And tho glorious sunsets be,
Kindly tell little stranger
Who has oddly lost her way,
where's the road that she must travel
To return to Yesterday?
For, you soc, she's unfamiliar
With To-day, and cannot read
What its strange, mysterious sign posts
Tell OF was and where they lead.
Aud her heart upbrads her sorciy,
Though $40 did not moan TO stray
When She fcil asleep LIST evening
AND abandoned Yesterday.
For sho left deal neglected
That she really should have dorc,
And she fears she's lost some favors
That size fairly night lave woa.
So sliod like 10 turn her backward
To retrieve them il she may
Will not some one kindly tell her
Where's the road to Yesterday?

WILL ABANDON THE CABLE.
The Union Railroad Company Is Con-
Siderins a Plan.
ELECTRICITY TO Be ADOPTED
On Prospect, Waterman and Angel
streets-The Cable to be Used simply ~

There is every indication that before
many months large portion Of the ca
ble line will be abandoned by the Uniou
given some consideration to the cable
line in connection with it's proposed elec-
trio extensions, but has made no de1nite.
decision in regard to the nisster
The management of the canle system
is difficult one. the continuous wear on
SO long cable as is here In use makes
breakags frequent and the expense heavy.
During the fist two or three years the
company was in an experimental stage.
aud the lack of dividends or of surplus
sufficiently indicated the cost of running
such a system
Since its virtual absorption by the
Union Railroad company there has beeu
some Improvement. but not enough to
warrant the continuance OF u cable if any
other more economical system can be
adopted.
Changes Made Necessary.
The adoption OF electricity on the
Westminster street route to Olneyville.
ana the equipment of the Brown street
route with electric power. will necessitate
some changes in the caole route SO that
the cars on the Brown street route may
be brought to Market square without
change.
The proposition therefore is to erect a
power house near the top OF College
street to run the cable system entirely 70
College street. AT the top Of Ihe hill on
the slight incline near Prospect street
system OF switches is proposed by which
all changes OF cars will be avoided and
the cars drawn up the hill by cable will
continue around the curve up Prospect
aud through Waterman and Angel
streets by eiec ricity.
The only difficulty lies in securing
land for the power house. But it il
thought that the land near Prospect
street on College street can be secured OF
the Richmond Land company. The
power used will undoubtedly be cleo
tricity. and thus all objections that
would naturally arise to steam engine
will be avoided
The power house now used for the
cable on Angel street will be utilized as
"a car house anda reserve power house for
electricity.

astrous fire this morning. aud during the

valued at upwards OF $500 was con-

The desperate chances taken by the
flremen in blowing up the floors of the
building where the fire originated was
all that prevented the spread Of the fire

stroy a whole square.

Blown Up with Dynamite.
Three alarms followed each other in
quick succession the last ringing out at
400 o'clock. The building extended
back seventy feet, and as there were no
alleys the firemen were forced TO use
dynamite cartridges to blow out the
floors TO food the building.
Following the explosion flames shot
into the mir TO the height OF nearly 100

the accumulat d force of the water

and at o'clock the flames were under

how. The building was owned by
