A QUIET DAY YESTERDAY.
No Disturbance Along the Line OF tn
Railway.

Things were very quiet along the line
OF the electric railway yesterday. Four
cars were run on the loop and four on
the Island line, and none were inter-
fered with, except an occasional cry OF
"blacksheepr' or some like epithet
from the men and boys on the sidewalks.
The men on the Island line were in
structed in the morning not TO run
through Etnavill, but some cars went
through TO Martins Ferry during the
afternoon, Notwithstanding this order.
Thev met with no trouble.
The disorder OF Sunday t Ktnayilie
was more serious than was first sup
posed. John Lotus, son OF Superlnten-
dent nj. LOTUS, who was roughly
handled by the persons who attacked the
car. was able 10 be about yesterday, but
was little sore from two or three kicks
fin the stomach, received after he was
tied to q trolly pole with a wire
by the mob. All the eye-witnesSes
seen say il officers had been at
hand very slight exercise OF
authority would have prevented the
trouble. and there was some fault found
with the Mayor of Bridgeport on this
score. The Mayor stated yesterday
that On officer was supposed to be in
Ftnaville all the time, il being the
Third ward OF Bridgeport. On Sunday
the officer was there until o'clock, when
he arrested drunk and took him down
10 the lookup. Thinking that every
thing was in good order uD there, he
remained at the City Building until u
telephone message came from Etna-
VILE, stating that riot was in pro-
gress. The officer az once went NJ, but
the trouble was over when he got there.
The officers stated that the troubles on
the line in Etnaville always start when
they leave, and are always headed by
boys ranging in age from fourteen to
twenty years OF age, and many are
even younger. .,
Yesterday the Railway Company had
al. Conway, Of Bridgeport, sworn in as
a special officer, and ne will be stationed
az Etnaville.
Mr.. Burkhard. the Martins Ferry
grocer, who was hurt by fall from a
car, was not resting so easily yesterday
ms his physician would desire, and Sc
rious result may follow.

part: "It is not for me to pronounce
any eulogy on Lincoln. Every school
boy knows his history. He was pCsSi-
bly, one of the plainest citizens Of the
republic. II there was ever man that
came from the peoples hearts, aud was
beloved by them it was Abraham Lin
coin. Born OF humble parentage, aud
Of q generous and inQuiring disposition,
be became famous. When we think
of his achievements, the past rises
before Us. We see him in the woods Of
Of kentucky. We see MIN learning from
that boOk-the greatest OF all books
at his Christian mothers knee. Then
in 1861, when this whole country was in
g tremor, Abraham Lincoln was chosen
President. Tue old Ship Of State was
out on the sea of dissolution. and in re-
Spouse to his call came forth the fathers
of the sons, in part, who compose this
organization. Finally be brought the
old vessel into the peaceful harbOr."
Miss Maude Spo0ner, Of the Island,
enthUSed the audience by rendering
choice selections on the piano.
The happy crowd then betook them
selves 70 the elegant banquet, which
all enjoyed.
To the delightful music rendered BY
Miss Spooner, the remainder OF the
evenings enjoyment was spent in dane

CRIMINAL WOMEN
Those Born With Pronounced Tendon
cies to Crime Are Exceptions.

Women born criminals are intelli-
gent, and make up for their weakness
and want of physical power to satisfy
their natural depravity by having re
course to cunning i'll their fight against
society. But as Il whole the type of
the woman born to be Il criminal shows
a great likeness to the type of men
criminals, and in the rare case of com
plete crilGinality women surpass mcls
i'll WickedneSs, writes Helen Zimmcrn
i'll the Popular Science Monthly.
Females who have become dclin-
GuentS by aCcident-and the greater
number of female criminals belong to
this class-may be divided into two
CateEorieS: the one represented by
females born with only Slight criminal
tendencies, the other containing delin-
Qucnts who differ very slightly from
normal women, and who sometimes
are nothing but ordinary women whose
condition i'll life has been such as to
develop that fund of immortality which
Is latent Ill every woman. Professor
LombroSo determines by indubitablc
data the much-dcbatcd question of the
affinity between prostitution and
criminality, concluding that the psy,
Geological and anatomical identity
between criminals and born prostitutes;
could not be more completes; both be
ing morally insane, by mathcmatic
aXicm they become equal
In drawing his conclusion on women
who have become prostitutes through
circumstances IOmbroSO SAWS that
mentally those are more abnormal than
women who lrlvc bccUmc criminals bv
cnolce, because, according 10 the
theory OF his school, prostitution ana
not criminAlity is the true dcycncra-
ton OF woman, innate female criminals
beng rare and monstrouS cXpcctions.

ing that of the earth by 1884 times.
Were it possible, says the ST. Louis
Republic. to bring the earth and Jupi-
ter so close together that the distance
separating them would b. no greater
than that which now separates the
earth from the moon-about 24OO0O
miles-what Il wondrous sight would
be i'll store for the residents of our lit
tie globe. The world of Jupiter would
appear to us to have a diameter forty
times larger than that Of our usual
mighty attendant, and the surface of
his disk would occupy Il space greater
than that of 1,600 full moons. And
this giant of planets is removed from
the sun by Il distance of 10000, 900
miles; has an orbit of more than 600
600 miles in extent, and makes a cir
cult of its celestial track once every
1852 days. Thus it will be seen that
4 year on Jupiter is equal to eleven
years, ten months and seventeen daHs
on our globe. The immensely of the
world of Jupiter and its orbit may
be approximately measured by this
comparison. In order to complete its
orbn i'll the time given above it must
speed around the sun with Il velocity
OF 100000 miles Il day, or Il little more
than eight miles per second

A HINT FOR PULLMAN.

London Daily Telegraph: All tie
trains on the District railway will soon
be provided with electric reading
lamps, to be worked upon the penny
in the !slot' principle. Preparations
;,re so far advanced that the wiring
Of the carriages is nearly completed.
About $500 lamps will be required
They are very ingeniously constructed
4 penny dropped into the box will set
4 small clock in motion for half an
hour, during which time the current
will be switched on and the lamp will
throw its concentrated rays direct upon
the book or newspaper of the passen-
ger who pays for it, and upon nobody
else. Should any mischievous person
tamper with the apparatus an electric
warning will be sounded in the guards
van. Each lamp will be of twenty
candle power, and there will be four
in each compartment. The current is
derived from battery. which will sup
Fly four lamps. No date can be as
signed for the commencement of this
pecial system of illumination, but it
IS probable that it will be inaustlrated
some time next month.
