The day was one Of exceptional beauty.
The opal tints Of the water, the bending
or the willows along the banks as they
were swaying IN the breeze; the long dyke
grass, looking like a wall of amethyst,
all made the day appear like a prophetic
dream of paradise. As we gllded down
the stream the historic spire of Antwerps
old cathedral faded away into the hori-
2on, and the Ginning of those wondrous
bells could no longer greet the ear with
Ruben's symphony In place Of this,
however, there was the blending Of many
voices, speaking many different lang
guages, but all had the one keynote OF
harmony-peace! One could however,
not help cherishing the secret wish that
our ancestors (of Biblical history might
have deslsted from conceivng that gigan-
tic scheme of building the Tower Of I3a-
bel; then there would have been no con-
fusion of tongues on this earth, and each
one could now understand his nelghbor.
Twelve different nations sat down to
partake of that feast. They ate Of the
same menu! They were united in the one
sentiment OF arbitration instead Of amt
hilationl They hoated down tho same
stream, whilst exchanging these
thoughts in different tongues.
Was not this a forotaste Of the millen-
ium? With thanks to the king and the
Belgian government, we returned 70 the
work OF the congress, refreshed both
mentally and physically, just as the sun
was fading away behind the horizon, and
the Ginning bells were ringing their even
Ing hymn.

His Letter oil Rr sicnation.

J. W. Reinhart in his letter of August 8,
which has just been made public, and which
tenders his resignation of the offices of pres
ident and director of the Atchison, Topeka
d Santa Fe Railroad company, and of all
the auxiliary companies connected with the
Santa Fe system, says:
The recent examination of the accounts
of the company, undertaken with my ap-
proval, has called attention to certain meth
DDS of statement which have been the subject
of much adverse criticism. So far as have
seen, no imputation has been made upon
my personal integrity or any suggestion that
have profted to the slightest degree by
reason of the matters criticised.
Certain features of my administration
have, however, been so generally criticised,
that | feel that, whether rightly or wrongly,
| am no longer in full harmony with those
interested in the property.
Il am satisfied that my further continu-
ance as the president of the company m ight
be an obstacle in the way Of speedy and
successful reorganization of the property.
| have no desire to impair in any way the
efforts now being made, or which may be
made hereafter to put the property on
sound basis for successful operation.
Under these circumstances, it seems
hardly fair that | should continue to oper-
ate the property. even though confident as
| am, that ultimately my course Will be
found to have been to the interest of all.
and may add, in justice to myself. that L
am impelled TO take this course by the fact
that my health has been seriously impaired
and do not feel that even under the most
favorable circumstances, l ought to cor
tinue the strain and responsibility of the
position. Thanking the board for the con-
fdence reposed in me, l am very respect
fully, J. W. REINHART. y

had Wreck in Nebraska.

Train No. 8 on the Rock Island, consis-
of an engine. a combination baggage and
express car and one coach, plunged over
Afty foot trestle over the tracks of the
Union Pacific and Burlington j. Missouri
River tracks, about five miles south of Lin
coin Neb., at 10 p. M, August 8. and was
smashed to atoms. Az the mem bers of the
crew were killed and ten or twelve passen-
gers are supposed to be buried beneath the
mass of glowing Goals and red hot iron
which is all that is left of both train and
trestle.
Henry c. Foot, the brakeman, was the
only one Of the crew who escaped. His
story and that of the others who survived in
dicates that the wreck was due to the work
of train wreckers, and Walter Sidell, who
lives near the crossing and was the first on
the scene, states that fish plate and the bar
with which it had been wrenched loose were
found near the trestle after the wreck oc-
Cured.
There were about fifteen passengers in the
chair car, ali of whom were got out more or
less injured. In the smoker there were ten
or twelve and it is not thought a single one
escaped When the engine struck the broken
rail she jumped the track, and bounding
along over the track for a hundred feet,
rolled to one side aud plunged down on the
Union Pacific tracks below.

senator Hill Calls a Halt.

In the senate. Senator Hill, of New York,
offered a resolution directing the senate con-
ferees to report the situation in conference.
It is believed this resolution will pass the
senate, and thereby the conference would
practically be- relieved of its work and it
would remain only for the house to accept
the senate bill as lesser evil, as they be-
lleve, than the Mckinley W.
In explaining his course Senator Hill said !:
MY object in offering the resolution was to
expedite the disposition of the tariff. Every
days delay is injurious to the business inter,
ests of the country. Further delay is abso-
lutely inexcusable. If no understanding can
be reached upon a bill, congress should
promptly adjourn. We have now been in
session for nearly whole year and have had
ample opportunity to legisate. A senator
or mem Der who does not know exactly what
he wants to do on the tariff question after
all the time spent in useless deliberation, is
unfit to represent any constituency.
Either pass the tariff bill at once or ad-
journ and go hume. These are my senti-
ments, and believe they are the sentiments
of nine-tenths of the people of both parties. >

Pump Irrigation.

The Garden City Imprint tells OF n
pump test A 12-inch tubular well was
put down thirty feet. Water stood in
it to within eight feet of the top. A.
2I-inch Wonder pump was placed in po-
sition and attached to twelve horse
power engine with a 48-inch pulley,
while the pulley on the pump shaft was
only 8 inches in diameter, giving the
pump 81 revolutions to one of the large
pulley, and at full speed the engine pull
ley made 11S revolutions per minute to
629 by the pump, the capacity Of the
pump being half gallon per revolution
or 314 gallons per minute.
The following shows the effect the
pump had on the water supply.
First minute lowered the water 6 #
in.
Second minute lowered it two inches.
For the 3rd, 4th and 5th minutes the
water remained stationary. In succeed
ing five minutes it was lowered l ] inch
es, and from this on for more than an
hour, with the engine at full speed the
water remained stationary. At the end
of the test the pump was stopped sud
denly and the we'll filed to it's original
level in fifty one seconds.
The test demonstrates that there is an
ocean of water waiting to be brought to
the surface.

Hunger in Pullman.

Pullman strikers are becoming exceed
ingIy hard pressed for food, fuel and other
supplies. For the last week the relief com
mittee h s found it uphill work to supply
$500 men who applied every day for aid, !,
and nearly every day many hundred have
been turned away empty handed.
One poor woman, who looked worn and
faded. came twice during one day, carry
ing her baby on one arm and tugging an
other child by the hand. She said all she
wanted was small piece of the beef which
was being distributed, but she was COM
PEELED to go away without it. A consider
able number of men applied for fuel and
kerosene oil, but there was absolutely none
to give out. A large proportion of the fam
lilies in the poorer paris of Pullman are
forced to go wholly without lights during
the evening and grope their way to bed as
best they may.
In some cases the fuel is all gone and
whole families are beginning to sub ist on
cold or raw food unless they are fortunate
enough to be able to use neighbor's stove
some time during the day.
