Electricity rsom water Power.

Netotoicn, Pa, Enterprise.
While there is now disposition every
where to build electric trolley railroads,
steam is generally the power adopted to
generate the electricity Before US is an
advertisement of the "Waterville and Fair
field Railway and Light Company" 10
Maine. This company is incorporated to
operate cars in Waterville, Fairfield. Wlns-
low and Vassalboro, covering a distance
of twenty-five miles along the banks of
the Kennebec river, and to light these
towns. This power is all generated by
waterwheels turned by the fall OF the
Kennebec river. Then we have the ex-
perlence OF Rochester. where the streets
are lighted by water power obtained from
the falls Of the Genessee, and the first
electric cars ever run in the north of
Scotland have water for the motive
power, to say nothing OF what is prom
ised 10 the near future of Niagara Falls.
Let us look at home Here is the pro-
posed electric road from Bristol to New
town. II built, 1t will strike the bank Of
the Ncshaminy at Nswportville, where 10

dam and raceway built, only requiring re-
pairs at the dam, with a large mill biild-
ing at the track in which to put the gen.
Grating machinery. at Trenton there 10
enough power going TO waste to light the
city and Morrisville and TO run cars. At
New Hope the whole Delaware river falls
some thirteen feet, and that town and
Lambertville should be lighted thereby
aud street cars propelled in the last named
town. We are in the infancy of car pro-
pulsion'by electricity, and it will soon be
found that there are many places where
water would be cheaper than steam.

largely attended. The death OF this young
man was very sad one. He was but %
years of age, member of The class of

Industrious student, and his exemplary

The True American of Thursda

The True american of Thursday
last has this to say regarding Lambert
william:
''On Thursday night Of last week a citi-
zen of Lambertville, whose name Is not
given, drove from Trenton up the turn
pike, through Ewingville, with spirited
horse attached to a light road cart. On
reaching the crossing near Trenton juno
ton, he took circle around the flag
shanty, and cut through farmers lane,
emerging directly between the main
tracks of the Philadelphia aud Reading
railroad. He then drove up the track to-
ward the station and within few min
utes OF the time for two express trains to
pass 10 opposite directions. He was for
tunately discovered by some of the rail
road employees, and taken from his per-
ilous position In time to avert horrible
catastrophe. He was next found 10 a
neighbering farmers wagon shed, nearly
frozen, his horse having wandered into
the building and the driver having just
sense enough TO crawl into a covered
wagon. He was cared for until morning,
when he again proceeded on his way TO
Lambertville. Trenton cold tea is treach-
erous stuff, and unsephisticated youths
from Lamberville should beware Of it.

LABOR.

There Is no condition 10 life more con-
ducive to real happiness and contentment
than that of those who are under the ne
cessity Of working every day to procure
the needful comforts of life. There is a
degree of satisfaction in consciousness
of having done good days work, that
strangers to. Those who labor are the
only ones whe have any leisure. Those
who live 10 idleness are on a continual
strain. Their ingenuity Is taxed to the
utmost to know what to do with them
selves and to keep out OF the way Of
others that are at work. The more Diff
ficult and exacting the labor, the greater
the satisfaction. There is dignity in
labor that is really ennobling and awakens
spirit Of independence anG self-respect
"a feeling that what they possess is the
work of their own hands and not the pro-
duct of another's. Look at those who
work 10 our shops and factories. Some
of them while at their work are so be-
grimedly SCOT and dirt you can hardly tell
whether they are white or black. In 60
ing to and from their work they walk like
men walking for wager Especially when
going from work. When they get home
and are washed aud dressed they are the
most cheerful and contented of those who
appear upon our streets. There is no real
happiness or contentment outside of use
full labor. II is never at discount. There
are frequently those among US who are a
terror and dread to the community, yet
they have this redeeming trait. We are
forced to commend them for their w1rk.
ing qualities. CLRyENeER.

succeeded in carrying TO q victorious
issue the fight for the repeal of the
silver purchase act, otherwise known as
the sherman law. BY this repeal the
government Is relieved of the nrros-i-
ty ot continuing 10 purchase monthly
over 100000 ounces of silver. which
had been pouring the white metal into
all channels Of business. threatening To
uuscttle the stability of our currency
and weaken our financial status in the
eyes of the world.
That this foreign view of the situation
is not theory is rDnrlusively proven by
the heavy unloading of American rail
roul and government Investments held
vi the other side of the water and which
resulted in the enormous drain Of gold
which was tall'n back in lien Of the
