Much has been said of the new Big

is considered.
zone of the London & Northwestern en-
gines during the race to Scotland in 1883
covered the distance from Preston to
Carlisle, ninety miles, in exactly ninety
minutes, having a gradient of no less
than l in rs to climb between Tebay and
Shah Summit. One of the most famous
engines of this company is known as the
Charles Dickens and runs daily from
Manchester to London and back a dis
lance of 1862 miles. Except when stopped
for repairs, the Charles Dickens has,
since February, 1882 made this journey
every day. working up the a. m. from
Manchester and returning with the 4 p.
m. from London. On September II, 1891,
it completed the 2651st trip, having ac-
complished the extraordinary feat of run
ming 100000 miles in nine years and two
hundred and nineteen days. No other en-
CINE in the world has run so many miles
in like period of time. Between these
dates, in addition to the Manchester and
London trips, ninety-two other journeys
were made, and, altogether, 22,515 tons
of coal were consumed. At the end of
February, 1898, the total mileage run by
the Charles Dickens was 1,138, 557.''

what there was, the talent had the best
of it, three favorites and one we'll

LONG AGO.
EUGENE FIELD.

1 once knew all the birds that came
And nested in our orchard trees;
For every flower | had a name
My friends were woodchucks, toads ant
1 knew where thrived in yonder glen
What plants would soothe a stone
bruised toe
But that was very long ago.
1 knew the spot upon the hill
Where checkerberrieS could be found
I knew the rushes near the mill
Where pickerel lay that weighed
pound
l knew the wood, the very tree,
Where lived the poaching saucy crow,
And all the woods and crows knew me,
But that was very long ago.
And pining for the joys of youth,
/ tread the old familiar spot,
Only to learn this solemn truth:
l have forgotten, 1 am forgot.
Yet here's this youngest at my knee.
Knows all the things l used to know;
To think l once was wise as he
But that was very long ago.
l know it's folly to complain
OF whatso'er the Fates decree;
Yet were not wishes all in vain,
tell you what my wish should be;
I'd wish to be a boy again,
Back to the friends l used to know;
For was, oh, so happy then
But that was very long ago

London, May 25.-The London Daily
News saws of last nights banquet:
Admiral Erben and the Chicago Of
fcers are none the less welcome be-
cause their visit is informal The well
come given by 400 representative En-
elishmen to the American officers may
well be the subject for congratula-
tions on both sides Of the Atlantic
The Chronicle says: The festival
was a recognition of the feeling that
the Anglo-Saxon states are one realm,
not by act Of parliament, but by the
act of Providence. The feeling is that
our interests go together This is a
matter of instinct and tells US we can
have no ground for quarrel which is
not susceptible Of friendly settlement.
We have had two lessons on this sub
iect. In one we were beaten, and had
to pay, which we did with none too
much grace. In the other, the United
States was beaten and submitted to
the award with almost good humor.
The time may not have yet come when
the judicial method can with all ma
tIons take the place of the arguments
al guns. but as between John Bull and
Brother Jonathan there ought never to
be a whisper of a thought but amity.
The Times in a leading article says:
1.-The significance of the occasion is
three-fold: First, the recognition of
national kinship; second, the compli-
ment to the navy Of a kindred power,
which alone among the nations of the
world shares with our own a common
inheritance of glory, and last, but not
r. ie of
gratitude to Captain Mahan's skill and
mastery, with which he has told the
great epic of British naval achieve
| ments and awakened in the minds of
the nation a new sense of what it
owes to its sea power. 1t is not for
nothing that Captain Mahan is an
officer Of the navy; it is not for nothing
$hat he has displayed English sea
story as no man ever displayed before
as direct example and encoura ge-
ment to his countrymen, and it is not
for nothing that he has shown that
the conditions which have given sea
power supremacy in the old world are
probably destined to be reproduced in
the case of the United States. He has
made his countrymen understand that
If history is philosophy, the teaching
by example, the inheritance of sea
power must hereafter be shared by
them"
The Standard says: cit is to be
hoped that our guests realize that the
English people recognize the growth
of the American navy with more SYM
pathy than jealousy. The traditions of
the American republic as a maritime
power are honorable and brilliant.
Englishmen have every reason to re-
spect the prowess of America Mr.
Bayard did we'll to point out that the
modern conditions of maritime war
fare originated with American seamen.
The engagement of the Monitor and
Merrimac was the beginning of the
revolution in naval construction"
