Fame and Notoriety.

The paths of fame and notoriety lie
periously near together, sometimes 80
close that it is difficult to point out the
dividing line. But fame is that which
exists after the hero's death, even though
the hero die unknown while noto-
riety is like bubble on the river. And
there are degrees of fame, and the price
paid is not of gold or silver, but often
the Joy of life

Good Country Roads.

Washington, Feb. 24.-The INQUIRY

United States is meeting with favor
able results Among other things the
cooperation of practically all of the
principle railroads in reducing freight
rates on road materials has been So

hausted and reprint has been order

further publications for which many
applications are now on file.
Concerning some of the results
reached, General Roy Stone, who is in
charge OF The investigation, said to
day:
ut appears that while many short
sections OF good highway are being
puilt In various parts of the country
with gratifying cheapness In cost
aud freedom from burdensome tax.

The weather prophet, Foster, pre-.
diets with the usual glib certainty OF
his ilk shocking state OF affairs for
March and early April. During the
months of March, and for the first
half of April, says this prophet of evil,
the worst storms known in years will
sweep over the United States and
Canada, with winds, snow, sleet aud
ice, destroyed early vegetation even
In the far south, and accompanied by
cyclones and floods. This is cheer
ing prospect; but happily Mr.. Foster
Is by no means infallible. The example
of Virgins aud other weather sensa-
tlonalists has robbed these periodical
scares of most of their terrors, ana
while the spring weather is capricious
to the last degree, it is not necessary to
dig cyclone pits or build mounds at
Mr.. Fosters bidding.

WHAT'S In A NAME.

The Princess Colonna is one more
Oh the many American moths that
nave burned their silly wings in the
name OF social ambition. Among all
the social follles that man or woman
Sind have committed, the absurdity
oil TUT hunting as practised by the
American heiress is the most foolish
aud criminal. Mrs. Mackay's daugh-
Ter, now digestiDg her modification
ia Dakota, is not a worthy object of
sympathy. She was free, happy,
wealthy. She had all the world can
give except the empty bubble of rank.
She wished to write herself down
"frlncess," faucying it would bring
her heaven knows what of intangible
happiness. She bit her Dead Sea
irnit. She bartered her youth and
beauty, and, most particularly, her
wealth, to a man whose name is as old
as history, and whose habits and char
acter are all offense and shame to all
Europe. She was married for revenue
only, and her punishment serves her
right. She at least deserves credit for
having the womanhood to acknowl-
edge her mistake aud free herself
from an odious ana degrading bond
age, instead of tamely resigning her.
self to life of shame and misery after
the wicked and foolish old-fashioned
feminine way.
One of the best and happiest results
OF the much-discussed "emancipation
movement is the rapid doing away
with the ridiculous and criminal falla-
cy that woman must patiently abide
by such mistakes us hers, and sink
forever in the slough in which her life |
and hopes aud happiness are mired. |
There is hope for the "Princess.7 She
may yet rise to place of true and
genuine honor and distinction in the
world, and her example serve as an
encouragement to her similarly trapped

ed by some blackguards present by
loud outcries of the word "Cuckoo.n
The expression probably had Its origin
in the bitter and caustic mind of John
Randolph. He was greatly vexed by
the iAane persislency with which an
ohio congressman, one Cushing, de-
manded the previous question at every
opportunity, without reference to It's
pertinence. Mr.. Randolph finally rid
himself of this pest by describing q

The Manufacturers Reconi of Feb
ruary %, says:
"Thcre is bros dening out of busi-
ness interests, factories are gradually
resuming operations, and the inquiries
for Improvement Of old plants, as well
as for new ones, Is larger than for six
or seven months. During the past
week there have been many evidences
of the way the south Is attracting the
attention of outsiders who are looking
for desirable Investments as we'll as
homes. An unusual number ofexcur-
sions from the North aud West carry
ing capitalists and homescekers have
been inspecting mineral, timber, farm.

Alabama, Mississippi, and Texas"
II would give wonderful impetus
to investment, however, were tho rev.
enue policy of the government to be
once definitely determined and were
its financial policy to be settled on
some busincss-like, conservative basis.
So far as the South Is concerned in
obstructing such settlements, or any
other section of the country for that
matter, the obstruction is blamable,
but there Is abundant reason to believe
that the tide of depression is turning,
that confidence is in some measure re-
stored and that the South is shortly to
be the theater of great business revi-
