other country in the world has any
trains as fast for the distance as the
Empire state express, which runs 10
miles at 50.7 miles an hour, including
four stops; or as fast for the distance
as the defunct Exposition fiyer Of Inst
summer, which ran 9e4 miles at zs.e
miles an hour, including nine stops.
Among the very fast speciaisruns We
find the following pretty authentic
records Of performances in the United
States, which, so far as known, have
not been equaled in England since d

Mucu Of the fine fruit which is sold
on the street stands of the east as a
California production comes in reality
from Oregon, and the natives of the
latter state are beginning to grow
jealous of their big sister stealing their
thunder. An Oregon man, now in New
York, says that all the best Oregon
fruit is bought by californians and
shipped east as California product.

PERHAPS every part of this country
that saw the infancy of the railway
has traditions of men that sat waiting
with shotguns to preventive engineers
from surveying on their lands, and
many town of arrested development
owes its decrepitude TO some such op-
position to early railways. The history
OF that time is now repeating itself in
the opposition of country folks here
and there to the sudden extension of
electric railways. The danger of fright
ening horses and the inconvenience to
Transfers in public road partly occu-
pied by an electric railway are some of
the arguments advanced against this
new factor in rural civilization.

The sterilization of milk, now 50
much talked about, is not new. Fifty
years ago milk was practically sterilized
so that it might be carried on long sea
voyages. The method was to draw the
milk from the COW directly into clean,
dry bottles: to cork the bottles, and
then gradually raise the temperature
of the milk up nearly TO the boiling
point BY placing the bottles in n vessel
q TEtrr rrd I d.
The milk was then Emitted u cool
gradually, andwas ready forshipment.
Thus treated it kept sweet for many
weeks.

a LITTLE hero died in Philadelphia
recently. lie was run over by a
freight train on the Reading railroad.
The little fellows left leg and right
arm were completely severed, and his
whole body was mass of bruises.
The physicians at the hospital say they
never saw a nervier or pluckier pa
tient. He never lost consciousness. AS
the attendants carried him up the steps
of the hospital he actually smiled, and
gave in an almost cheerful voice his
name and address, asking at the same
time that his mother be sent for. AS
lay upon the bed his nerve did not de-
scrt him, and he requested the doctor
to allow him to sit up that he might
see them dressing his wounds. Never
once did he vince. Never tear did
he shed while he was being fixed up.
and when death came it found him
with smile upon his lips, nd only a
hope that mother would come before
the end.

JAPAN, in the opinion Of an eastern
contemporary, may yet meet heavy
reverses before this war is ended She
may, indeed, be beaten in the end. It
is too early for prophecies. The
Chinese power has been nearly over
thrown many times, and 1t always has
rallied and found a leader at critical
time to reestablish its supremacy. But
so far the outlook is that this war win
make Japan the dominating power in
Asia, RELOCATING China to second place.
1t win be time enough then to begin to
think of the possibility of Japan be-
coming an equal of the western
powers.

Nor many years ago there were sevs

Cling to become the favorite of the
public. To-day the trade is chiefly in
the Concord and Delaware varieties.
Early IN the sixties yellow bananas
could not compete with the red; to-day
the latter have been almost driven out
of the market, though very many still
prefer them. There used to be dozen
varieties of pears competing with an
almost equal demand. Now the Bart

BEHIND CLOSED DOORS,

The Senate Democrats Try to Ssttl
Their Differences In Caucus.
WAsHINGToN, July 24.-The Democrat.
OF the senate today met behind closed
doors for the purpose of settling thei
differences on the tariff and trying t.
reach an amicab.e understanding. A
programme was arranged for a caucus
and accordingly at 8 O'Clock the senate
adjourned and the Democratic mem Der,
walked into the marble room and closed
the doors.
Senators Hill. Murphy and Irby were
the only Democrats present at the cap,
itol who did not respond to the caucus
call. Senator Hill was not notified oil
the intention to hold caucus until the
last minute, and then declined to enter
it because of his attitude on the bill.
Senator Irby left the capitol without
giving any explanation OF his absence.
Senator Murphy went away pleading On
engagement.
The cauous continued for three hours,
and, without reaching any conclusion or
taking vote on any proposition, ad-
journed until tomorrow at 5 O'Clock,
when another meeting will be held. The
discussion OF some points was very
warm, and especially just before ad-
journment, when Senator Villas was
speaking. Several senators interrupted
him with questions and criticised the
course he was pursuing in the senate.
This called forth equally tart replies
from the Wisconsin senator, and there
was . prospect OF the debate becoming
more personal when, upon the sugges-
ton OF Senator German, the adjourn
msnt took place.
The caucus merely served to empha-
size the two facts that the Democratlc
senators are all anxious to pass q tariff
and there are still wide differences az to
the kind of bill they can pass.
1t was recognized from the beginning
that Mr.. Villas motion to strike out the
difsrential duty on sugar occupied 3
mcst important position in the present
controversy, and several senators init
ances OF withdrawal no conclusion could
be reached in caucus.
During the caucus, Senator Harris, in
reply to a question, explained his viewa
upon the parliamentary status OF the
Villas motion out of order, but init
mobou tuut VIC moUAoA m'SA Nv u0 oAnu6ou
40 "a to render 1t in order.
The only motion made during the
afternoon was one by Senator Jarvis to
send tie bill back to conference without
instructions, and while nothing like a
vote WAS taken, the indications are now
that this motion will prevail in the end.
Almost every senator present made
brief addresses during the continuance
OF the conference.
) Senator Smiths speech caused some
thing of sensation. He said he knew
four Democratic senators who would vote
against the bill II the proposition of Mr..
Villas ehould prevail.
