RACE TRACK, MORRIS PARK. Oct.
lO.-There were many evidences of the
fury Of the early morning storm here
to-day. The carriage shed in the free
field was blown down by the hurricane.
Windows were smashed, trees uprooted
and the board walk on top of the
grand stand was whisked over into the
next county.
The race track was deep in mud.
The terrific wind had driven the rain
through the grand stand from end TO
end, thoroughly soaking the chairs and
floor. Very few persons were tempted
to the course, though the card was quite
attractive. There were very rev
scratches, and the racing promised to
be fair.

His ancestors for nearly century had
been buried in the Gene terry on the

his visit to enlarge the family lot, that

small library and Il drinking fountain,
and had been most generous in other
ways. The evening before his depar-
ture for his city home he was waited
upon by large delegation of the most
prominent citizens of the place, who
came to make some acknowletA ,1snt

the party delivered himself of a long
and highly eulogistic harangue, end

CHAMPION EGG-EATER.
The Clever Trick Played on Pat Maher by
the Boys. -


Pat Maher has long borne the repu-
tation of being the champion egg-eater
of his locality and boasts that he once
ate six dozen raw eggs, shells and all,
at one sitting. But the boys got the
best of Pat one evening recently, AS
usual, they offered to give him all the
liquor he could drink if he would swal-
low a certain number of eggs
Eat dozen of eggs, shells and all
in our presence and you can get drunk
at our expense, said the spokesman,
EVAN dozen hin eggs exclaimed

The boys" went over to the bar and
procured monstrous ostrich egg that
had long ornamented the sideboard. 1t
was fully seven iGches long and four
nches in its smallest diameter. The
contents of the shell had, of course,
long been removed, but this fact was
not apparent on casual inspection. The
egg was carefully carried to the table
by which sat Mr.. Maher, beaming and
smiling over the free drink which was
soon to be his.
Here's the first egg, Pat" said the
spokesman, quietly: the walters will be
along with the other eleven presently. y
Mr.. Maher gazed with bullying eyes
at the giant egg, then at the gang,
each of whom preserved an impressive
face. Solemnly he pushed his chair
back from the table, buttoned his coat
aud fixed his battered hat firmly on his
head. Then. with one reproacEful finger
directed at the she'll upon the table, he
said:

PRECIOUS CUSTOMS RECORDS
Three Volumes Filled With Letters of
Hamilton, GalIatin and Others,

Three Volumes Filled With Letters of
Hamilton, GalIatin and Others
Safely slowed away in the archives
of the collector of the port. in the
Philadelphia custom house, are three
quantity bound volumes that shed an
interesting light on some of the diff
culties met and overcome by the
founders of the republic They consti-
tute the record of the beginning of the
customs service of the government, and
are composed chiefly of manuscript cir
culars and correspondence, covering
the period from October 10, 1889. to
1905. They are of great value in esti-
mating the remarkable administrative
capacity Of three of the early secre-
taries of the reasury-AleXander Ham
ilton Oliver Wolcott, jr., and Albert
Gailatin.
Some of the letters are entirely in
the secretaries handwriting, showing
the comparative leisure or limited con-
veniences of the officials of that period.
All. whether letters or circulars, bear
the autographs signatures of the
writer's. and these include many names
famous in the annals of the republic.
Even President James Madison found
time to personally sign circulars adj
dressed to the collectors of all the
ports; while Timothy Pickering, secre-
tary of state. took occasion to pen a
long letter to George Latimer, Phila-
delphia' S second collector, relating to
the issue of a passport to a Frenchman
of this city who desired to go to st.
Domingo, but who was suspected of
having designs upon the govern
of Gen. Toussaint LOuverture. Atuhat
time, it appears, the collectors of some
of the ports in the United States were
empowered to issue passports.
Most interest attaches to the circu
lars issued by Alexander Hamilton, be-
cause they convey the first instructions
as to methods of collecting tariff duties
ever issued in the United States. One
of the embarrassments he labored I'M
der in framing them may be inferred
from paragraph in a letter addressed
to Sharp Delaney. the first collector at
this port, dated November so, 1889, in
which he adopts tone of apology ''for
mentioning the practice of the British
CUSTOMS because, he explains, I'VE
derive our language and great meas
ure of our usage of business" from
Great Britain.
In this letter, which is long one,
covering many pages, Hamiltons far
reaching discernment is shown in the
fact that some of these instructions are
still of vital force after more than one
hundred years of commercial eXpan-
sion That, in composing his instruc-
tions, he sought aid from other sources
besides British practices, is evidenced
in another letter in which he requests
copy of the revenue laws in force in
/ Pennsylvania Immediately preceding
the act of congress levying duty on
imports.
Throughout the first volume of these
precious records are numerous other
instructions, notes of inquiry and sug-
gestions, signed by Hamilton, but some
no doubt, emanating from his able as
sistant secretary, Tench Coke, cele-
brated Philadelphian, and regarded by
many as the ablest writer on political
economy this country had produced up
to that time -philadelnhia Record.

AERIAL NAVIGATION,
Labor of Scientists Towards the Perfec- |
ton of Airships.

ton of Airships.
A flying machine that will not hy
does not commend itself to the public
and thus the history of many ingenious
devices has ended in failure and disap-
pointment. For this reason every in
vention now brought to the attention
of the incredulous public is apt to be
received with grave doubts, if not open
derision. Scientific research in this di-
rectiOn is not only apt to be diAcour-
aged, but what is more important, it
fails to receive the necessary financial
support. Capitalists are not looking
for such purely visionary investments.
In spite of numerous hindrances. fire.
quent failures, and very little public
encouragement or sympathy, there are
still a number of eminent scientists
who. realizing the vast possibilities of
possible aerial navigation, are stead
lastly laboring towards the desired
end, and of late so much has been ac-
complished, it seems safe to predict
that before the nineteenth century has
come to a close, aerial navigation will
be an accomplished fact, and that long
before we have grown accustomed to
write GO" instead of is" on our
letter-heads. the vast atmospheric
ocean will have become navigable.
There are several aero-technical socie-
ties abroad, and the war departments
of several European powers are eager
to encourage any line of research in
this direction
1t will undoubtedly be as aids to war
fare that aerial vessels will first be
used, and as such will render so I'M
necessary this sad and barbaric means
of setting international difficulties so
frightful in its consequences as to I'LL
timately eliminate it entirely. The
vast possibilities of aerial warfare can
not be overestimated These flying
ships of destruction could totally dew
astate whole cities by dropping dyna-
mite bombs into their very center: and
when warfare means such wholesale
slaughter or humiliation, it will soon
cease.

cation, except indirectly, may not de-
