THE VEGETARIANS.

Chicago takes naturally to vaunting. II
is the second city of the Union in magni-
tude, and perhaps the first in Importance
to the railroads. It's confidence in the
future is unbounded, and ere long we may
find it alluding to New York as a center
supreme no more. a few years ago it de.
lighted to tease 81. Louis as being aseep
or dead, but now that the chief city of
Missouri is outclassed beyond cavil, the
Empire City alone is considered worthy
of the humOrS of comparison. 1t might be
imagined that Chicago would feel it an in
trusiOn that the Vegetarian Federal Union
should there hold its annual conference,
because if the world were to turn to a
vegetable and fruit diet the industry upon
which the city has thrived and which is
still the principal one would be in "A
"parlous state" But no. Chicago is gem
erous even to enemies. The vegetarians
are welcomed not rs perverts, but friends.
For their information the statistics of the
meat trade are writ large, and they are
asked what kind of armor they have with
which To conquer such citadel of enter
prise. What chance has the cabbage with
such mountain of flesh diet in sight ?
The packing and other wholesale estab-
lishments are 81 in number, with a
total capital of $50 ,222, 1876, exclusive of
borrowed money. The empl Dyes number
1888. The wages bill is S11. 900, OO0 an
nually; over 100000 animals are con-
verted into food every year, and the
product is worth about S204.O0O.00O. To
discourage Chicago from prosecuting this
industry the vegetarians must work their
propaganda with zeal beyond concep-
ton, not only on the spot. but wherever
the exported brands go.

THE BERING SEA ARBITRATION.

The startling news comes from Wash
iagton that the American officials in the
berlng sea case are TO be called home in
the course OF ten days. With three able
oodleo lawyers on each side there was
possibly no other way to limit delbera-
uons. Any one of the lawyers is good for
1orty hours speech, and The president OF
the court is SO good-natured that he inva-
rlably compliments speaker when he
closes at the expiration of his tenth day.
VI course, there is good deal of ground
TO 90 over. and no disposition has been
eVinced to cut across lots. The weight of
opinion as expressed by foreign CORE
spondents is that the American side of the
case has been ably presented. and Mr..
fheips, the best-known of the American
counsel, is still to be heard.

funds for the San Joaquin Valley ro ad
than lot Of other projects were sprung
upon the public. No one will say that
these other projects are not in themselves
good. but the question may be raised if
either one, or all together. is as full of
promise as the Stockton railroad. While
there is no occasion to oppose any enter
prise that has merit. it will be admitted
that the most meritorious should be un-
dertaken first. If we cannot do all at once
let us do what we can. The amount of
money needed for the Stockton road is SO
small in comparison to the benefits of
this road that there should be no question
of its being finally raised. But these side
projects, which are possibly intended to
distract attention from the main enter
prise, add somewhat to the difficulties of
the task.

NEARLY A COLLISION.
A Serious Train Accident Narrowly
AYerted Near Baden.

AT TAO A. NJ. yesterday an excursion
train bound from this city for Mon terey
and the regular passenger train from
MEMO Park had a narrow escape from
cOlidng.
The train from this city was crowded
with members of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association. 1t left the city at few
minutes past O'clock, and the engineer
was instructed, so it is said, to make all
speed for his destination.
The up train from Menlo Park was
coming around grade near Baden, when
the engineer saw the excursion locomotive
heading for him at full speed. He blew
his whistle and applied the brakes with all
his force. The engineer of the excursion
train stopped as soon as possible, and q
collision was thus averted.

CRUSHED BY THE CARS.
w. D. Nortfrop, a Southern Pacific
Yardman. Fatally Injured.

William d. Northrop, who was en-
ployed in the Southern Pacific yards. nea
Fourth and Townsend streets, was fatally
injured about o'clock yesterday morning.
He was taken to the French Hospital,
where he died at halt-past clock, while
having his right leg amputated, and the
body was afierward removed to the
Morgue.
Northrop's fellow-employes are reticent
about how the accident occurred, but it is
presumed he was coupling cars and was
crushed between them. His right leg and
thigh were smashed to pieces, the lower
part of his body was badly bruised and his
left leg was injured.
The deceased was 80 years of age. a
native of Wisconsin and lived with his
wife and child at 11H McLea court. He
had been in the service of the Southern
Pacific for nine years, most of the time as
conductor on freight aud passenger trains,
but for the past year had been employed
as yardman. He was always looked
upon as sober and careful man.
An inquest will be held today.

than energy which exhausts itself in call
ing form appliances. Chairman James
of the Finance Committee does rot pro-
pose TO increase the levy to procure money
to pay the floating debt. AS the city will
not be called upon for some expenditures
that were especially heavy last year, it is
probable that the bulk of the floating debt
may be paid out of this years revenues.
The board may take the matter out of the
hands of the Finance Committee. but IN
so doing they are in danger of running
against the Mayor, and there has as yet
been no basis for supposition that Mayor
Ellert contemplates going back on his
record.

Old Rules For Night Policemen.

Old Boston is wildly brought to mind
by the following excerpt from the Sc
lectmen's Minutes" dated Nov. l, 1859.
containing instructions to watchmen:
"In going the Rounds Care must be
taken that the WatChmen are not noisy.
but behave themselves with strict deco
rum, that they frequently give the Time
of the Night and what the Weather *
with distinct but moderate Voice, ex-
cepting at Times when it is necessary to
pass in Silence in order to detect and Sc
cure persons that are out ON unlawful
Actions.
"You and your Division must endeavor
to suppress all Routs, Riots and other
Disorders that may be committed in the
Night and secure such Persons as may
be guilty; hat proper steps may be
taken next Morning for a prosecution as
the Law directs. We absolutely forbid
your taking private satisfaction or any
bride that may be offer'd you to let such
go or to conceal their offense from the
Selectmen." Boston Transcript.

Self-Support at College.

think she ought not to try to. A
college course, just as it stands, is
enough for any girl, however
strong, to attempt to carry. Extra
calls on her strength are very apt
to make her break down. Most
colleges offer scholarships, awarded
by faculty option, by competitive
examination or by the giver,
but they are, of course, too
limited in number to be gerally
available. But there are several
ways in which a girl may provide
for a part of her expenses. She
may borrow money, with the I'M
derstanding that it is to be repaid
from her salary received in teach
ing after graduation and some
girls study and teach alternate
years. Tutoring and prizes for
scholarship may be made to help,
and reading or writing by the hour,
copying, mending, Office-work, cat
alOguing, drawing and other tech
nical work for the scientific depart
ments, library work and assistance
in the laboratories but such is Of
ten at a serious risk to scholarship
or health, or both.

Letters to Dead PeODle,

Enterprising tradesmen in this city, in
the distribution of their circulars, are
not backward in utilizing the lists Of
distinguished persons which are printed
in the newspapers from time to time
Not infrequently do they get hold of the
names of men who long since passed
over to that undiscovered country "
and circulars and prospectuses are
mailed to the dead as well as to the liv-
ing. 1t would seem that name once
enrolled on IA BRIDESMAIDS mailing list
is never erased. Circular letters adj
dressed to Samuel j. Tilden" are still
occasionally left at the Gramercy park
mansion, and mail matter addressed to

Beware of Cheap" Canned Stuff.

There is one great danger connected
with preserved goods, and that is that
the insane mania for cheapness at all
risks which some women have has in
duced dishonest people to put inferior
goods upon the market, but if house
keeper is careful to buy none but the
best and sees that they are properly pre-
pared by her cook she need have no fear
but that her timed vegetables are as

the advantage of procuring an infinite
variety for her table at very small out

appointed Solicitor General of the
Southwestern Judicial Circuit, and
served five years. He was Judge
of the Superior Court of the same

resigned the office to accept the

WAS HE DIsoRDERLYp
A Colored Boy Heavily Fined for
Trying to Sell Wood.

Trying to Sell Wood.
Paris Haywood, charged with
being disOrderly, was up before the
recorder this morning and fined
$25.
The negro says he had a load of
wood he wanted to sell, for which
he wanted $3.50. A man offered
him less, but he would not take
it. Finally, he claims, a man
who wore a gray suit of clothes
gave him an order to take the
wood to his house. The negro
very probably by an error
or ignorance, for any one is
liable to mistakes, took the note
to the residence of Joe Braden.
Mrs. Braden responded and he
told her he had load of wood,
which a gentleman ordered, aud
asked if he was at the right place.
The lady asked him to describe
the man, which he did, and which
correctly correspondent with Mr..
Braden's description. Mr.. Braden,
on seeing the colored boy, who is
about nineteen years old, asked
him what right he had to
bring wood to his house with
out his authority The negro tried
to explain, he says, and wanted to
show Mr.. Braden the note. Mr..
Braden refused to look at the
note but told the boy he would
have him arrested and i'm
summoned the police.
Officer Cadena responded, and af-
ter hot chase arrested the colOred
lad.
