TO STOCK A PHEASANT FARM.
Mr. VIM. P. Clyde Has Shipped 800
Monaghan Pheasants to Hilton Head.

~SNAE0AAes-A AGa6dnLS Hilton lead.
Mr. William p. Clyde president of the
Clyde steamship lines, and William p.
Clyde Jr, are at the De Soto, and will
leave the city to-day TO go down to Hilton
Head to spend the holidays hunting.
Mr.. Clyde has sent down from his stock
farms near Philadelphia 300 Monaghan
pheasants. with which he will stock this
island. The pheasants have been shipped
on the Dessoug from Philadelphia, and
will arrive here Wednesday. They will
be taken down to Hilton Head on the
steamer Alpha. Mr.. Clyde said last
night that he had raised these birds on
his farm near Philadelphia, and had de-
termined to try them on Hilton Head as
an experiment. He said he saw no reason
why they should not flourish there
Mr.. Clyde's visit to this section is
wholly on pleasure this time. He was
asked if the new factor in the steamship
business from Philadelphia, namely the
additions to the Ocean Steamship Com
panys service, would have any material
effect on the situation. He replied that it
would be a good thing for Philadelphia,
and so far as he was concerned he was
glad to see it. He said that his lines
and those of the Ocean Steamship Com
pany were on the best of terms, and that
their interests We're harmonious, rather
than in conflict.
Mr.. Clyde said the Florida business 60
ing north is veey good, especially in the
orange trade. The shipments, however,
he said, are much smaller this year than
they have been for the last two or three
years, on account of the extensive dam
age done by the storms of this fall,
which is much greater than many people
have any idea of.

The folding umbrellas of which

a novelty well worth the at

like the ordinary fine umbrellas one usu-

that they can be folded and carried in an
ordinary grip-sack when travelling, max
ing one less parcel to be handled whilst
on trip and also removing the danger
of leaving the umbrella behind. They
come in a beautiful assortment of sticks
for both ladies' and gentlemen's use and
range in price from $500 to $S.00.--ad.

C0xeyss Crusade.

Coxey, the crank who is organizing
the army of the unemployed for an
onward march to Washington, is at
tracting great deal Of attention, and
is the subject of limitless discussion in
the Eastern Newspapers 1t is not be-
cause he is thought to be capable Of
doing any great things, for he is an
erratic old Ohio farmer who is hallu.
cinated with the religious craze that
he is the John the Baptist Of Christ's
second coming, but his prominence is
due to the novelty OF his movement
and the possibility of harm that may
come of it. Some of the Eastern
press are supposed to ridicule the
movement, but others treat it in q
more serious view. 1t is one of the
signs of the times, and is symptom

Block System Telegraphy.

A new use has been found for the
block signal system in addition to the
main purpose of keeping trains at a
safe distance apart and thus prevent
ing accidents. When Michael Burns,
a discharged employe, attempted to
wreck the Washington express on the
Philadelphia, Wilmington & Balti.
more railroad the other night, the
former operator at Ridley Park
promptly notified Train Dispatcher
George B. Minnick at Wilmington,
and that official, at once surmisine
that the wrecker would hasten to
Philadelphia to hide himself in q
great city, instantly notified all the
signal operators between Ridley PARK
snd Gray's Ferry to watch for the sus-
pect. Sure enough Burns made q
push for this city, walking along the
track, and operator after operator
flashed the words to Wilmington that
he had passed their tower. As the
wrecker approached the Gray's Ferry
tower, where Special Officer Gallagher
was waiting for him, excitement ran
high along the line, as it was feared
that the fellow might leave the track
and make q snort cut for the city.
Happily, however, he kept on to the
tower and ran into the arms of the
officer, who promptly landed him in
police station.

The application of the principles oil
reciprocity should be made in every
town that is ambitious of attaining
prosperity. The mechanic or laborel
who lives in town, and who is de.
pendent on the people of that town OF
community for employment, who
spends his money in another city has
no right to complain if his neighbo,
refuses to employ him, but instead i'm.
ports a workman from some other 10.
cality to build his house, lay his wall
or paint his barn, as the case may be.
The merchant or shopkeeper who
ignores his townsman in a different
line OF business when he wishes to
make purchase and goes from home
to trade is not entitled to the least
consideration from the people of hi,
town. 1t is the duty OF every person
residing in q community to as far as
possible reciprocate the many benefits
which the community has conferred
upon him, and the individual who
fails in this regard is not endowed
with that public spirit which charac.
terizes o good citizen.

The pressure is so great that if these

OF the conditions which prevailed on
the eve of the French revolution. His
plan is to gather an army of 10000
of the unemployed and march them
direct to Washington, where they will
be reinforced by the idle of the city,
and then the entire crowd will sur
round the capitol building and make a
demonstration on Congress. Their
demand for relief will include the
passage of bill authorizing the issue
of $500, 100000 in legal tender green
backs, and another bill authorizing
the employment of laborers at from
$1.50 to $3.50 per day on the public
roads and other public Improvements.
The whole thing is ridiculous, yet it
must not be treated too lightly. The
danger of such q movement is too ap-
parent to need much discussion. The
Cincinnati Commercial. Gazette treats
the matter seriously and says:
1t has been the American policy
from the first that our deliberative as
semblies shall not be molested by
mobs, or even subjected to the in
fluence OF the centers OF population.
The seat of government was trans
ferred from the Hudson to the Poto-
mac for this very reason. The capital
OF New York State is not New York
city, but Albany; that of Pennsyl-
vania is not Philadelphia or Pittsburg,
but Harrisburg; that of Ohio is not
Cincinnati or Cleveland, but Colum-
bus; that of Illinois not Chicago, but
Springfield; of Missouri, not St. Louis,
but Jefferson City; of Kentucy, not
Louisville, but Frankfort.
This is a matter that touches the
foundations of the republic. The ma.
tional congress must not be permitted
to be impressed by marching masses,
no matter what the alleged object.
Distant cities and States would be
bound to protest against local infiu-
ence. No show of meddlesomenesa
with the official representatives of the
people and the States can be toler-
ated.
We do not say this congress could
not be instructed by the people; but
they should hear from the people
through the forms of fundamental law
and the official channels of communi-
cation.
This is the correct view of it. There
is way to influence Congress without
establishing mobocracy. Coxey should
disband his ragamuffins, and if he
wants to influence Congress let him
get his followers into . mass meeting

TAKING SOUNDINGS At SEA.
The Method by Whish q Depth Of
Five Miles II Reached.
Popular Science Mont


A ship regularly engaged in deep
sea sounding usually has the sounding
machine mounted at the after end,
and when about to sound is brought
to a standstill with the stern to the
sea. The stray line, with the sound
ing rod and sinker attached, is run over
the guide pulley and carefully lowered
to the waters edge, the register is set
to zero, and the deep-sea thermometer
is clampsd to the sounding line; a
seaman is stationed at the friction
line which controls the velocity with
which the wire is unreeled, another at
the brake, and third on the grating
outside to handle the sinker and in
struments and to guide the wire as it
passes overheard; a machinist is at
the hoisting engine and the recorder
takes position for reading the regis
ter. When the sinker il lei 90, the
vessel is maneuvered so as to keep the
wire vertical, and the friction line is
adjusted so as to allow it to descend
from 70 to 100 fathoms per minute.
The instant the sinker strikes bottom
which is unmistakably indicated by
the sudden release of the wire from
strain, the reel is stopped by the fric-
ton line and brake, the recorder
notes the number of turns of the
reel. In an hour this messenger OF
mans ingenuity makes its excursion
through five miles Of watery waste to
the abysmai regions of perfect repose
and brings to the light OF day the soil
with which the rain of shells of
minute infusorial organisms from the
upper waters has been for ages mant.

cold OF the deepest valleys, there is

THE people of the United States ea1
on an average about four pounds Of
butter for each bushel of wheat con
sumed as food. From this it is easy
to see that so far as the home market
is concerned butter brings the farmer
more money than wheat, and yet there
are some folks who think the dairy
industry, which includes the sale OF
milk for food and the manufacture OF
cheese as we'll as OF butter, is not OF
very much importance as compared
with wheat raising.
